Cubs fire Von Joshua

You lived through Donny Buntball and Dusty Baker, I think you can live through the failings of Ryno. -
Week 4 - Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions, 12 PM FOX
jersey cubs fan replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Other Sports
My feeling on Orton remains the same when he was with the Bears. He was fine, if he had a quality defense, good receivers and line. But the bears line and receivers weren't good enough for Orton to succeed enough in Chicago. Cutler is good enough to succeed with what they have. -
Week 4 - Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions, 12 PM FOX

I think it has more to do with the fact that if the other team is expecting the run, the Bears aren't good enough to do it successfully. They can't just run, run, run and get a first down. Their passing game is better, and they should use it. People can get hurt running the ball as well. -
Pretty unethical move by ESPN, but what else is new? They have to protect their guy. Does that omission really change much? In the grand scheme of things, not really. I just don't get why they took it out when they aired it on earlier editions of SC. That's why I think it's pretty unethical. If they're editing things from this interview, there's a good chance that this hasn't been the first time that's happened. ESPN should be getting ridiculed. I think it's safe to say they have edited stuff from every interview anybody has ever done on their network. I don't see any problem whatsoever.

There's never really been parity in the NFL. Every year there's at least one team that wins 75% of their games and at least one team that loses 75% of their games. There's less parity in the NFL than any other sport. There are, however (assuming Minnesota wins), six 3-1 teams, two 2-1 teams, seven 2-2 teams, a 1-2 team, five 1-3 teams and an 0-3 team. So, really, 4 games into the season the distribution is pretty standard. Yeah, the parity talk was always overstated. Everybody decided to pretend the NFL was nothing but 7, 8 or 9 win teams for some reason, but every year there are multiple great teams and horrible teams. What the NFL does offer is a chance for a team to go from worst to first quickly.

Re: Week 6 - Chicago Bears at Atlanta Falcons, 7:20 PM NBC
jersey cubs fan replied to BigbadB's topic in Other Sports
Amen to that. Not only are they blitz happy, but they really suck at it. Lance Briggs has always been a bad blitzer. He runs right into blockers and gets nowhere. They do this all the time. I hate when this team blitzes. -

I'd much rather have the bye week later in the season, but with the current crop of LB and WR injuries, I guess it's as good a time as any. Atlanta heads to SF this week for what is sure to be a tough fight. They are currently 2.5 point dogs out there. Unless they get blown out, I think they will be favored about 1 or 2 against Chicago. I'm still very concerned about the pass defense. The line may have come up with some big plays, but for most of the game Stafford had plenty of time to complete downfield passes. I'm guessing Atlanta will be able to score a lot, so the Bears need Cutler to lead them to this win. -
It's only LOL if you're an Obama sycophant that can't admit when mistakes are made. It's the US president doing something unprecedented and getting egg on his face. It doesn't reflect poorly on him as a person, but it's a miscalculation by the White House and a waste of political capital.
-
Campbell looks silly and the score is tied.
-
really? Versus is off DirecTV? Does that mean no Stanley Cup Finals this year for DirecTV subscribers? My bet is it's something they will figure out within a couple months.
-
Kane first to score on a breakaway, I think he was just coming off a penalty. 1-0
-
So that blond girl who gave the guy the envelope is going to be in the first ever "youth olympics". What the hell are those? With 12 year old gymnasts and teenagers all over the place, what is the point of youth olympics?
-
Announcement coming, and the winner is.......little blonde girls? Oh wait, it's Rio.
-
I don't know who it was, but a Hawk nailed a Panther into the boards, legally, knocking off his helmet. The guy crumpled to the ground and stayed motionless for about 3 seconds before realizing they weren't going to call a penalty, then he got up and got back in the action. It was #85 I think.
-
Florida continues to dominate action. Buff skating with Toews and Kane doesn't look right to me.
-
There is no way that violence hurt the bid when Rio is still involved.
-
Florida dominated the first couple minutes with multiple chances.
-
I don't know what this means, but for the past 3 months we couldn't give our office Mets tickets away, but now the first two months of Rangers tickets are already taken with lots of disappointed people who didn't get them. Kind of weird.
-
London has 2012 already.
-
I'm sure I've read it before, but who makes up the IOC bureaucracy?
-
After years of enjoying the fact that Directv offers up pretty much any channel I could want, especially sports, it's weird to not have Versus available anymore because of the prices Comcast is demanding for that rather pathetic channel. But I luck out today since the game is on versus at noon here and I can watch it at the office.

Of course that's not what I said, but you've never had a levelheaded logical discussion about anything that involves politics. So I shouldn't expect you to start now. lol tell me how you really feel. I feel that you are completley ridiculous for trying to pretend this wasn' t a bad thing for Obama and for pretending I was insinuating the end is near becuase of it.

It probably was. The reports are the first round people vote for their neighbors to be more friendly even if they plan on eventually voting for somebody else. It's a really stupid process. Had it been a straight up vote, and no rounds, Chicago probably wins.
-
Why? If you're the US president you don't go lobby for the olympics unless you know you're getting them. It shows he has much less influence worldwide than people were saying. It shows they miscalculated his worth, and it's an embarrasment to the US to have their president lobby for something like this, and lose. After making far too many primetime appearances and major speaches, Obama probably needs to learn to stop putting himself in the spotlight becuase he's burning through political capital way too quickly.
