The Bears are the cheapest franchise in the league. Lovie is the lowest paid coach. You think management is suddenly going to pony up big cash? I think they'd be just as happy to get a compensation package from Dallas for Lovie, promote Ron Rivera, and keep going with their miserly ways
St. Louis' system must be horrible. prospectpower.com has a Top 100 prospects and STL has ZERO on the list. Don't scouts think that Samardjiafjeicadfasa is going to fast track to the majors a la Prior? I've heard him as a 2008 rotation possibility? Maybe that's why he's so high on the list?
Not to mention the tv ratings for the entire postseason. We got a glimpse of the potential in 2003. A World Series appearance would be insane. Should they play the Red Sox or Yankees in it, god know how much money they will be bringing in. money that will be split off to the other teams and then not spent on payroll. You know, sorta like luxury tax money
I have to say, the Illinois arena looks awful on TV. I hate the rounded seating sections where everyone is facing center court. Safety orange is also about the worst school color ever. That said, nice win
the national media hates the colts! Seriously, what's with the trolling? You're acting more and more like an Eagles fan every day. The national media has unloaded almost an unprecedented level of hate on the Bears this postseason. To pretend otherwise, or that Bears fans are paranoid for thinking this is just complete ignorance of the facts. The Bears aren't even the most criticized team to play for a title in 2007 - the Florida Gators take that honor, and they take it miles ahead of the Bears. correct. Let's hope the game turns out for the Bears like it did for the Gators
I actually think college should adopt the spot foul for PI. And you can't get rid of roughong the passer. Why would you give DE's and blitzing LB's incentive for blowing out a QB's knees every chance they get?
I'm not worried about Indy's firepower. The Saints had the best offense in the NFL and scored just 14 today. The key is to force mistakes while limiting your own. Notice how amazingly the Bears hid a shoddy performance by Grossman today. Rex didn't turn the ball over, the defense forced turnovers...game over. I suspect Indy will run the ball a lot. Clearly the Saints went way too heavy on the pass and it cost them. Either way, I'm just glad that my boss is a huge football fan and purposely didn't book any shows at the theatre on Superbowl Sunday :lol: Maybe he'll open the theatre up to the public again and show the game in Hi-Def on the 32 foot movie screen :shock:
back in 1994 or 1995, I got tickets for Opening Day by walking up to the box office an hour before the game. Sat upper deck behind home plate. Frank Castillo took the mound against the Padres. It was like 10 degrees.
Yeah in true, NBC Olympic-coverage style. Show some Grossman baby pictures to give it some extra punch. :lol: While playing "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera, or maybe "What I Did For Love" from A Chorus Line...
"We are bringing back names on the home uniforms, but they will be across the players' butts. Also, we are moving to the blue pajama shirt full time, with red pants, yellow shoes and pink caps with green bills"
we can always call hin A-Sor Please don't. I'm eagerly awaiting the day when that nickname fad ends. it's useful when you want to call Albert Pujols "A-Jol" though
The blue uniforms are ugly beyond reproach. Also, crying for nameless jerseys while also favoring the blue jerseys is irony on a level that may cause the universe to implode
