    It's not like Samardzija was an unstoppable force out of the bullpen last year.

    Turner has only been a Bears OC in the NFL. And he's had limited success, if any. He's yet to develop or contribute to the development of a good NFL QB. And his offenses are usually bottom half of the league. I agree he hasnt done anything to contribute to develop a good NFL QB, but he has had a QB with alot less talent than Jay Cutler put up some very impressive numbers in 1995. Yes its 14 years ago, and Turner leaves alot to be desired, but Im willing to give him a chance this year with a true NFL Qb. Yeah, he coaxed one good year out of Kramer, nice, he also coaxed half a good year out of Rex and half a good year out of Orton. That doesn't make him a quality NFL offensive coordinator. If he was really any good, he probably would have been persuaded to join a team with an actual NFL offense by now.

    Understandable, and I'd have to agree. Which makes me wonder why you think Detroit would do well to take Stafford 1st over all. I don't see that working out well for them. The only reasons he's considered potential 1st material are because he is a QB and Detroit needs a QB. It's not because he's clearly the best draft prospect.

    I think you'll see a similar style offense. It's not like the old one never threw downfield, Rex did it a lot, and Orton threw some as well. The difference is hopefully more of them will be completed. Also, a lot of that depends on protection. I think I'd prefer they sign a free agent WR and draft somebody else in the 2nd, because I have my doubts about how much a 2nd round WR will provide to the Bears this year.

    If he stepped back into the batter's box after being called out on strikes, I think people would have whined even more than they did. This "incident" took seconds. You know what I mean. Bradley has a history of over-reacting and not maintaining control of his emotions like a normal adult. (Yes, I know, professional baseball players are not normal people.) Or are we just going to accept this as "Milton Bradley being Milton Bradley"? Baseball players argue over bad strike 3 calls all the time. Milton's argument didn't delay the game at all, and was no big deal.

    Instead of suspending a pitcher for 6 games, why not just make it 2 starts? Might make some of these guys think twice about throwing about batter's heads; Beckett is an idiot anyway :evil: In order to really be 2 starts, it would have to be 11 games. But 6 games already affects their income. Guys don't like losing 6 days worth of pay.

    I think if Sanchez lasts this long, the Jets would be absolutely ecstatic. He's quite possibly the best QB in this draft, and that is huge question mark for this team.

    What. Perhaps I'm wrong, but there has to have been a good chance back in the early-to-mid 90's when the Bulls/Blackhawks each won playoff contests and the Cubs/White Sox won games. While thats probably true, I think the weekend was magnified because of how the Cubs, Bulls, and Hawks won. Cubs win on a walk off against long time hated rival, Bulls win on the road in OT against the defending Champs, and the Hawks come back from a 2-0 deficit to win. I wont go so far as to say its the greatest day in Chicago sports, but it definately was 1 hell of a good day for a fan of of 3 teams. It was definitely a good one. But it was still just a couple first round victories and mid-April baseball games. Given the championships that have been won, and more pivotal regular season games, I'm guessing there have been better days. Super Bowl XX should probably rank higher, just based on one team's win. And I'm not even a Bulls fan but there had to be days when the Bulls won a championship that were overall bigger days for Chicago sports fans.

    I think it's worth the money. Why should he hand over cash to MLB while being suspended? He could get it reduced to 1 game, and there's an outside shot he could have it completely overruled. Considering every previous suspension probably ways against you in future incidents, it's completely understandable why he'd want to fight it. Furthermore, Bradley is going to miss more games than these 2. He's also going to have to be rested at certain points. Why not push these 2 games to later in the year when he can use the rest and get some benefit out of it?

    Mark sanchez QB, USC

    People complaining about his work, with multiple days off in advance and a day off in between would just be entirely unrealistic.
  15. jersey cubs fan
    If we used him in between when we werent winning people would be complaining about overwork. To hell with everyone else, Lou should do what I think is right. Overwork is when he's on pace for 90+ outings and 100+ innings. Had he thrown on Wednesday and then again today, nobody would be complaining about overwork.
  16. jersey cubs fan
    What is so embarrassing about that? It's a really fun atmosphere and people enjoying themselves?
  17. jersey cubs fan
    this is why you save Bradley for 9th.

    CASE CLOSED. Well now I think I disagree, he hit a homerun there with a man on base and in an important situation.
  19. jersey cubs fan
    The pitching and lack of clutch hitting scares me. There isn't any such thing as clutch hitting. You either have hitting, or you don't. I disagree. Some guys can handle the situation and others can't. Look at Soriano's numbers with men on compared to nobody on. I'm not saying it proves my argument, but I think it shows evidence toward my argument. soriano's OPS from 2006-2008 with runners on: .884 soriano's OPS from 2006-2008 with no one on: .902 CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE. CASE CLOSED. You've convinced me.

    What? Senile Steinbrenner forced Yankee stadium attendees to endure an awful rendition of that song every freaking 7th inning stretch' date=' so instead of 7th inning stretching, and players warming up, everybody stands still and pretends to honor America. I turned a TV to YES Network to watch some baseball.[/quote'] Is it true that they kick you out if you are moving out of your seat while the song is playing? I don't think so. I've been there quite a few times and don't remember any sort of enforced standing still. Although I just usually stand up.

    Maybe the RH thing was overrated last year Maybe? There's no maybe about it.

    it's a matherfarking homerun fest in Yankee stadium today
  25. jersey cubs fan
    Like I said in yesterday's game thread: Opposing managers should intentionally walk the bases loaded to start every inning. The Cubs would be lucky to finish .500 on the season. They would most likely go 162-0.
