    This is ridiculous...

    And now Mourning with a complete cheap shot with an elbow right to Wallace's chin in plain view.
  3. Jon
    Someone kick Posey out of this game! What a cheap shot!!
  4. Jon
    And there goes the lead...
  5. Jon
    Ugh. Lead all the way down to 4...

    Jones (ankle) and Ruben Brown (shoulder) were listed as probably today. Tillman (back), McKie (ankle), Tait (ankle), and Joe (hamstring) are listed as questionable. For the Packers, Woodson, Green, and Driver are all probable, although they did miss practice today.

    Isn't that the definition of "worth"? That's just what people are willing to pay in the market. It doesn't actually say anything about their production value relative to their cost. Just because other GMs don't know what they're doing doesn't mean he's going to be worth $21 million when there are cheaper options available.

    99 of those on the list probably just tested positive for pot, not steroids.

    I missed a week or two, but there have been other weeks where I've lost points, so that may have been for the best. I'm 1,075 out of 10,032. And I'm guessing 8,500 haven't been bothering to set their lineups.

    WHERE'S THE FOUL!?
  11. Jon
    Crap... Yeah, Duhon really misplayed that.
  12. Jon
    Tie game with 7.1 left!
  13. Jon
    15.8 seconds left, Bulls ball, down by 2. And Skiles is irate that the officials didn't give him the timeout when he called it. Yeah, the refs just cost the Bulls a full 6 seconds.
  14. Jon
    2 point game!!
  15. Jon
    Wow. Bulls within 6 with just under 4 minutes left.
  16. Jon
    Yeah, Hendry's main justification for these moves seems to be that other teams would have paid them that money. It usually doesn't have much to do about whether or not that player is actually worth the money.

    It depends on the local outlet and the individual media member. The majority of local radio hosts, beat writers and columnists pretty much use the same thought process and are trapped by the same logical fallacies that the national people use. They think and analyze by cliche, reduce to the lowest common denominator, etc. There are precious few local guys (our own Bruce Miles, Lawrence Holmes, Dan Bernstein) that don't use conventional wisdom. Hard to isolate them from the controversy-creating, loud talking, illogical media, though, for the general public. Let the flex scheduling backlash begin. The bears will be ending beer sales at halftime due to the time change.

    I'm still trying to figure out how much more the national media (not including national broadcasters) is repsonsible for holding back the intelligence of the average sports fan in this country as opposed to the local media.
  19. Jon
    As am I. Besides, it probably won't have any playoff implications, nor will it be Favre's last game.
  20. Jon
    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?
  21. Jon
    Pre-planned reps + showing not much + conservative playcalling + Grossman playing well + ESPN being a crap network = major QB controversy
  22. Jon
    A 43-year old pitcher with drastically declining strikeout rates who is coming off his worst year of his career would really bolster this rotation.
  23. Jon
    But...but...Carrie Underwood! Al Michaels is now my exclusive source for celebrity gossip.
  24. Jon
    Is that a good thing? I don't think it can be, that would make him about 280 I think. Yeah, not a good thing.
  25. Jon
    According to ChicagoSports.com, there are reports that Tank lost up to 15 pounds. It'll be interesting to see how he does in practice this week.
