    I CAN TOUCH THE SKY.
  2. Sammy Sofa
    Maybe.
  3. Sammy Sofa
    Just kidding.

    You are way too positive about things in general. If you aren't thinking positive right now I will straight up murder you.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Too many of you did not believe as hard as me.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    OK, now this is officially the dumbest game ever.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    Uhhhhhh.

    OK, you can say he won't be successful. But don't say that's a "bad challenge." It's clearly worth a try. Ball came out clearly short of the marker, and there are pretty good angles. He may lose it, but it's not bad to challenge this. Why? The reward is minimal on that challenge IMO. It was very very close and at best you get a 4th and inches that a team will convert 95% of the time for a 1st. It's not worth risking 1 of your TOs It's easy to say that now that they went for it. That was a big risk they took. If they don't get it there, the whole game may turn around against the Vikes. It was a good challenge, and a successful one. It was easy to say it before, too.

    OK, lock it down for me, Big Sexy.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, that was my thinking; I'll be stunned if the Vikings don't go for it and get it.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    OK, maybe I'm way off, but that doesn't seem like a good challenge at all.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    don't worry we're still winning by 2 touchdowns, right? You know it, baby. No doubt.

    Son of a donkey.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    Alright, time to take off again.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Well, that was unimpressive.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    Delicious.

    No. However, they were part of Hendry's philosophy of never cultivating the farm. The player development under Hendry was terrible and the prospects that were traded didn't pan out and overall were of a much lower quality then the top end of the Cubs' system now. While Hendry was GM the Cubs were the lowest spending team on amateur talent in all of baseball year after year which is why there was so little come up from the farm. How much of that was on Hendry and how much was due to ownership is up for debate. However, the fact remains that under Hendry's watch the farm system was horrible. Trading for good players isn't something one avoids; if anything you strive to have a better farm system in part to be able to do that more often. Trading for guys like Aramis and Lee aren't a knock against Hendry and didn't hinder the Cubs' ability to develop internally; they were just not good at selecting and developing talent. But those actual trades themselves were excellent moves.

    You will feel my death-glare until it works.

    Zero doubt the Bears win this; I hope you choke-barf on your fears.

    Sweet broadcast, Fox.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Ponder and his gigantic dumb face are doomed.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    PAYBACK, SCUM.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALSE.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    What the fudge is this nonsense.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Forte is a big pile of man today.
