  1. That is not true at all. If he's too fat to play first base (or move on the basepaths) he limits his value.
  2. How much should we read into Webb playing all but the last 8 min of the game, while we protected nearly every other starter? one of the guys on twitter (biggs maybe) was insinuating it was Tice sending a message to him that he's got a lot to learn. I don't get how you can hand the job to the guy who was so awful at it last year and then be disappointed that he's not advancing enough. Hey, maybe actually have a competition at LT in the first place.
  3. Kind of weird how they just blew off this game.
  4. isn't every village in the UK the result of inbreeding?
  5. His competition is Marshall, Bennett, Hester, Forte, the TE's and all those veteran defensive backs (plus the Bears offensive line).
  6. the coach is insane
  7. Good points. Especially on Forte's receiving yards. That said, do you see Jeffery 4th in catches? If so, behind Marshall and who else? Bennett and Hester? I'm pretty sure goony wasn't a big fan of the Alshon pick to begin with. I'd personally put him 3rd behind Bennett. Possibly 2nd, but I feel much more confident saying 3rd. I wasn't a fan but that's not the issue. It's not all that realistic to think any rookie WR is going to come in and catch 60 right away. I'm very intrigued about what he's capable of down the line. But I'm not expecting a ton his rookie year.
  8. MAKE OUTTTTTTTTTTTT
  9. finish them
  10. japan on the board
  11. what the hell was that? japan almost headed in an own goal
  12. I'd take the under on Forte and Jeffery. I don't think they will be throwing to Forte nearly as much, and the rookie will be about the 4th receiving option. As for the offense, I'm guessing they end closer to 12/13 than top 10. There's still a hell of a lot of powerful offenses that have proven it. The good domed ones will finish ahead of them. NE/GB and at least 2 of the 3 good NFC East offenses will be ahead. Remember, as positive as everybody has been about this new look, this is still Mike Tice's first go as an OC, and a whole new system for a group of guys that haven't done crap, and the line is awful. The upside is there, but I have to assume there will be a setback or two.
  13. USA!USA!USA!
  14. From yesterday http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/cubs/post/_/id/12533/cubs-pleased-with-solers-progress-in-arl
  15. Huh, I can't say I've seen any evidence of that particular benefit.
  16. I was concerned about space in the thread title after putting Samardzija in there.
  17. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8exblpPIT1rswh6io1_500.gif
  18. It's a shame they'll still need a LT and at least one interior lineman.
  19. He bet everybody sitting by him, so that was probably 20 bucks 10-15 times over. That's a pretty good haul.
  20. Camden? Were Newark and Trenton taken? What an awful name.
  21. the phrasing I seem to recall is he did everything well, except for trouble making contact, which Cubs people insisted they could fix.
  22. I kind of expect someone lauded as a great prospect not to strike out 7 of 8 times. He stopped being lauded as a great prospect earlier this year, when his flaws were exposed as a much bigger problem than previously imagined.
