    I know nothing about him, so I was just curious. Why is that weird?
  2. Derwood
    Is Chatwood a guy who might be groomed as a closer later in his career?

    I’ve read the Phillies will go hard for Harper too if they see their window opening

    You didn't read the complete first post, did you? I don't read any posts

    I get that the athletes can still compete under an Olympic Flag, and will get the Olympic theme song played if they win gold, but all they'll talk about in the broadcasts is them being from Russia. In other words, unless these athletes are uber-patriotic about playing for Mother Russia, who cares?

    Did I miss a running joke involving using asterisks instead of apostrophes in thread titles?

    not sure which is the dumber poll between these two [tweet] [/tweet] What drunken nonsense is this?
  8. Derwood
    because fox is still attempting to prioritize not losing (poorly) over player development, for one. He hasn’t put Glennon back in

    Looked like a compressed spinal cord to me. Yikes

    flight time to japan? lol I didn't say it was ever a GOOD reason
  11. Derwood
    It's been a reason for players in the past, that's all.
  12. Derwood
    If traveling back to Japan on a semi-regular basis is important to him, Chicago will be out.

    Wasn't that due to New Year's Day being on a Sunday last year, thus overlapping with the NFL schedule?
  14. Derwood
    When will the non-CFP games be announced?
  15. Derwood
    You’re assuming Garroplo was available at the time we drafted Mitch

    It’s not a badge of honor, I would just get stressed out by all the suckiness. The Bears aren’t good enough to ever be on locally so the temptation isn’t really even there.
  17. Derwood
    yes why would anybody want to watch their favorite team's #2 overall pick starting qb when they could be doing...something... on a sunday at noon how is pure bandwagon/fairweather fanning even fun? do i gain interest/excitement when my teams are good? sure, but i never completely go dark on them. It’s not fairweathering when you know the team is garbage from the start. I want them to be good, but I’m not going to invest three hours every weekend to watching them suck. I barely watched the 2013 or 2014 Cubs either

    I’m impressed by all of your commitments to watching this dumpster fire team week after week. I don’t know why you do it.

    That’s called karma, Buckeyes. Enjoy being a two-loss conference champ watching the playoffs on TV

    I know it's great for fans to get a true champion, but at that point you're talking about kids playing a 16-game season (Ohio St has played 12 reg season, 1 conf championship game, this would potentially add a play-in game, semifinal, and championship game) for free. That's pretty ridiculous. The two teams who advance to the FCS championship generally play 15 games, and many of those players are only on partial scholarships.
  21. Derwood
    Or not
  22. Derwood
    Doesn’t matter, because the Badgers are coming back to win this shizzz

    Hard to say. Wins over PSU, Wisconsin and MSU in their favor, but 31 point loss to Iowa should count against them. On the other hand, Bama didn't beat anyone terribly great (MSST, LSU), and they should (but never are) be penalized for playing FCS schools All of those OSU wins were at home. Best team they even played on the road was Michigan. Bama's best road win was Miss St so it's not like that is a whole lot better. But it really comes down to better wins and a conference title vs worse (and one more) losses. I think Bama is a better team and I'd lean towards putting them in because I can't get over OSU getting demolished by Iowa. But they're pretty close and I won't really care either way who gets left out. Wisconsin is a neutral site, but point taken. I think OSU could make it in but get their teeth kicked in again like last year. I don't think they're as good as Clemson, and Oklahoma already beat them (in Columbus)
