  1. 6/36. I see very little chance this ends well.
  2. Samardzija is definitely the type of guy to retaliate for the 2 HBP and 1 behind the back pitch.
  3. Slightly? There may be two guys on any given high school field who can play at a level of college football worth watching. And often times there are none.
  4. Doc Halladay with back to back HBP trying to show Ryno that he is indeed, his Huckleberry.
  5. poop, I missed Rizzo's homer. But yay, Rizzo hit his 21st HR.
  6. In a change of pace from most inter-office rivalries, we actually have a Bengals fan here who seems quite confident they are super bowl bound. He's not a douche about it or anything but I don't like giving away this many points in the first game under this system.
  7. Seeing Terry Bradshaw the other day on 5th avenue made be all the more anxious to get this season started.
  8. Hardin was a terrible pick at the time because of where they selected a guy that nobody cared about who did not play the year before. You have to get something out of third rounders. It remains to be seen if Emery will do a better job. Early indications are that maybe he's better at finding potential impact out of top of the draft guys, and potentially not as good at finding value in the middle rounds.
  9. The only reason you can say that is because he hasn't been on the field.
  10. I want him to sell tickets or something like that next year to pay the team back for the 5.5M he stole. Come on. I imagine the Cubs recouped most of his salary in insurance. Besides that he didn't steal anything. What makes you think they were able to insure most of a $5.5m contract for a guy going through rehab? What idiotic insurance company would underwrite that?
  11. It was a very Angelo type pick, weirdly. Not sure what you mean by that. It was very much an Emery like pick. He likes big freaks of nature and doesn't care about a lack of college playing time or perceived value. When I look at the athletic freaks Emery drafted they showed that freakishness on the field more than Hardins tape. Even a guy like Long showed on the field athleticism, even in limited snaps. Then you have the contingency of non athletic freaks like Jeffrey and Mills. I think it's very accurate to say Emery's idea of athletic freaks is not the same as Angelo's (pool jumper). But beyond the athleticism, oft injured CB converting to safety in third round seems up Angelo's alley. Some combination of those factors was seen a lot during Angelo's run. Angelo was a scheme fitter. He knew what Lovie wanted to do and he drafted guys to fit that scheme, even if they only had value because they could theoretically play in that scheme and were not worthy of being selected. Emery is much more of a "draft athletes and make the coaches find a way to make it work" guy. This was an Emery pick.
  12. How can Onobun make this team? Is he a great blocker or something? I don't know anything about him other than he has become some sort of lightning rod for people who waste time watching preseason games.
  13. Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 19m One source suggests #Bears will keep 4 tight ends and FB Tony Fiammetta. 4th TE could be Onobun or newcomer. We'll see what develops here.
  14. It was a very Angelo type pick, weirdly. Not sure what you mean by that. It was very much an Emery like pick. He likes big freaks of nature and doesn't care about a lack of college playing time or perceived value.
  15. You correlate hockey with concussions and then defend college football? That's smart.
  16. J'Marcus Webb ‏@jmarcuswebb 5m Good bye, Chicago! I gave you 3 years of me. 3 years too many
  17. Jordan Palmer ‏@JwPalms 11m I really appreciate all the kind words from the #Bears fans but I'm headed home today. Crazy biz but appreciative pic.twitter.com/hbbmBw9Kl6
  18. on the gif in this thread? i did it like 5 times and got 5.5 to 6 every time. I just timed it 5 times and got 4.6, 4.6, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7. From Contact to AJ reaching first base, I got: 5.0, 4.9, 5.1, 5.2, 5.1 Christ, what is wrong with the stopwatch on my phone then. Couldn't the computer have something to do with it?
  19. jeez vandy has to have the worst looking chicks in the SEC. That happens whenever you have a school you actually have to apply to get into.
