  1. I'm not worried about Garcia running...seems like the Bears haven't really had much trouble with running QB's. They always seem to handle Vick pretty nicely. But despite this little run, I'm not as afraid of them as maybe I should be. They're on a run like the Steelers had going into the playoffs last year.
  2. TDS but I love them both. They both attack the issues from a different angle, and I can relate to Jon Stewart's line of thinking more. That doesn't stop me from laughing hysterically at Colbert also.
  3. I voted 13, but now that I think about it, doesn't it essentially make it a rotisserie league then?
  4. [Arnold] I'll be back! [/Arnold]
  5. Could bare the fact that you were a Sox fan, but a Packers fan too? That's 2 strikes....I'll be watching closely for the third ;) I hear he's a Knicks fan ;) He also likes the Illini. What an evil trio. Come on Packer fans...you guys haven't beaten a winning team all year, do you really want to go the playoffs? Lame. Yeah, of course I do. None of the 7-8 teams "really" deserve it, but I could not care less. You're telling me that the Giants deserve it? They have been one of the worst teams in the league the last month or so. The Falcons? Once again, another underachiever. The Panthers? That team should've been a Super Bowl contender before injuries caught up with them, and now they have Chris WEINKE as QB. The Rams? They let Noah Herron rush for over 100 yards when we played them. Enough said about them. Of course we don't necessarily deserve to make the playoffs. We were 1-4 and 4-8 in different parts of the season. But if we were able to make it, you would find no complaining from me :wink: Please please please make it to the second round so the Bears can smack Favre around for the 3rd time in the year...that would be special. :) EDIT: Nevermind, you'd have to beat the Bears to get in, and I just can't root for that.
  6. WTF?!?!?!? Dan Shanoff, formerly of ESPN Page 2's Daily Quickie, mentions him as NFC MVP, which is just as ludicrous. How bad do you have to be in order to be fired from ESPN's Page 2? Shanoff was the king of the reactionary bandwagon hopping hype worshippers. And for some reason, he celebrated that fact whenever possible. Oh and he adds this gem: Hello Sean Payton??
  7. WTF?!?!?!? Dan Shanoff, formerly of ESPN Page 2's Daily Quickie, mentions him as NFC MVP, which is just as ludicrous.
  8. The Packers are vying for a playoff spot. Potentially Favre's last game, and the Bears get good ratings.
  9. I thought the same. EDIT: Exception to the rule
  10. David Haughhas an article about how Ron Rivera may go somewhere else as a head coach next year, and how he might begin being recruited as soon as as the first wave of head coaches are cut loose, which could be as soon as Monday. I hope that's not a distraction, though I doubt it would be. Heh....another good blurb from that column:
  11. Putting a crimp in your New Years Eve plans?
  12. Let the insane overreactions begin... The replacement host on Mike and Mike this morning thinks that Jeff Garcia should get MVP consideration.
  13. I can't see losing to Dallas. NO maybe...but really I think the NFC is the Bears' to lose.
  14. With the way the Giants have been playing, that's not exactly asking a miracle...heh.
  15. Dont tell anyone but those are spread pools. Yeah, I'm aware.
  16. Two of the guys on Sportsline.com have the Lions winning in an upset. Peter King has the score 30-7 Bears.
  17. I don't want to create a whole new thread for this, because it's something small that struck me funny, so I'll put it here. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/football/nfl/12/20/bc.fbn.patriots.stubhub.ap/index.html That article is an article about the Patriots and Stubhub countersuing one another over tickets. Patriots say Stubhub encourages scalping which is against state law, and Stubhub says the Patriots are using monopolistic practices. The funny part is that there is a keyword advertisment that is trying to sell me New England Patriots Monopoly. It just struck me funny.
  18. One of Sportsline's "Face Off" questionsis: Which team is more vulnerable in the playoffs, the Chargers or Bears? Pete Prisco says the Bears. Clark Judge says the Chargers. And I'm not sure I like either of their reasoning...lol.
  19. I'd like to see everybody play at least a half of the last 2 games. I don't want to see the injured guys getting 3-5 weeks off before the playoff game. I think it hurt the Bears last year. Good to see Vasher and Todd practiced. I'd like both to get some time this week (especially Johnson). I thought I'd heard a quote somewhere that Vasher thought he was ready to play, but that Lovie was the one keeping him out.
  20. I have to be honest here, if I was a Lions fan I would be fuming right now. Why does Millen still have a job? Has anybody had worse drafts than this guy? He is just plain terrible. Yeah I don't see why this is a bad thing. Sure they've got your money already, but that's not going to change. I'd be looking to do anything that shows anyone who cares enough to notice that I'm unhappy as a fan. That team and franchise has been so bad for so long. I can imagine the fans are just sick of it. But didn't they protest last year? And they suck again... It just is something that hasn't proven to be terribly effective.
  21. Looks like Lions fans are trying to put together yet another protestfor this weekend.
  22. I just emailed Greg Couch about his article:
  23. The moral outrage from the columnists this morning is amusing. Rick Morrissey is comparing this to a kid that made an actual on-the-job mistake getting fired, which isn't the same thing. If Tank was a crappy ballplayer, he wouldn't be on this team...bad guy or not. Greg Couch is comparing it to the NBA coming down hard on 'Melo and company...except again, that was an on-the-court incident, and this all is stuff in Tank's private life. If you're going to be morally outraged, you better be outraged that Ray Lewis, Jamal Lewis, and a gaggle of Bengals all are still playing football too.
