  1. $20 I'll raise it to 30. Honestly, I'd probably offer $600 for the pair but I don't think you'd come close to biting. Besides, the Bears haven't actually sold their individual ticket allotment for the game yet. I still have to hold out hope I get some at face value :) When do those go on sale? Most likely Tuesday. But there will be very few made available.
  2. First half highlights coming up on WBBM.
  3. No clue what they were doing there. Just take a knee and end the half.
  4. Surprised Lovie called a timeout here. Not going to run anything on offense, but clearly he wants Hester to do something.
  5. Usually when an offensive lineman turns a defensive lineman around and then bearhugs him, a flag is thrown.
  6. You're right, it was clearly holding on the replay. jennings again held the hand and arm back. Ridiculous. Every play they are being held. Tate put his hand out and pushed Jennings before anything else. I don't think you are allowed to push the defender away from you while making a catch. Should have been offensive PI Definitely wasn't defensive PI. Jennings never held Tate's hand. Tate had his hand pushing off Jennings.
  7. The cheapest seats on StubHub right now for a potential NFC championship game next week are $900 for a pair in the upper 400 corner.
  8. I thought it was PI live, but not on the replay. No idea why Tate was extending his arm for so long.
  9. What a play by Graham. He was ready for that ball for almost 2 seconds before it bounced.
  10. Hoooooooooly [expletive], Jay!
  11. The cameraman is not having a very good day today.
  12. I think Olsen has more YAC today than he's had all year combined.
  13. The snow falling just makes this that much better.
  14. The right side of the line executed that as well as they could.
  15. At some point it will become common knowledge that you don't make noise when the home team's offense is on the field.
  16. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Good thing Cutler threw that really hard.
  17. I'm trying to figure out if Manumaleuna gives the Bears anything that an extra offensive lineman wouldn't. Nice!
  18. Had a pretty strong feeling Cutler was going to go deep on that play, but it also looked overthrown. Wind must have helped. Wow.
  19. I thought they got hosed. Didn't think Dramond Green got fouled on the put back that got MSU even. The hosing in regulation came when Shurna got shoved from behind by Roe, I believe, who got the offensive rebound and got Michigan State back to within a point with less than a minute to play. Really obvious call right in front of the official. [expletive] that game away twice. And Shurna was just a liability on the floor.
  20. Tulsa will hire Bill Blankenship according to the Tulsa World. Also, ex-Stanford OC Greg Roman is following Harbaugh to the 49ers.
  21. McGee issued a statement saying he's no longer being considered for the job.
  22. Well, you have to factor in the prices of Bears playoffs tickets. After fees, the absolute cheapest you can get at face value are $115, and those are just upper corner 400 level seats. I want to say that I paid about $80 for playoff tickets against the Seahawks in 2006. And those seats were in the 1st row of the 400 level at around the 40 yard line. I'm not sure what the true average face value cost of Bears playoffs tickets is at this year, but I'm guessing it's somewhere around $150.
  23. Stanford will hire David Shaw, their OC, as head coach per Tom Dienhart.
  24. The supply seems to be pretty healthy for both. I had a pair of SRO tickets to the Bulls/Heat game that I sold last month on Craigslist. I was lucky to get back what I paid for them, but nothing more. Margins on sports tickets are getting very small given rising prices and a higher percentage that hit the secondary market. There are going to be lots of disappointed people who buy Cubs tickets just to sell this year, especially given higher ticket prices and the craptacular summer weekend schedule. Lots of Bears fans who would shell out for a playoff game are waiting for a potential game against the Packers, but I think there's just a different vibe than 2006. It's not as much of a "new" experience.
