  1. no Bears for me :( DirecTV is doing the free preview of Sunday Ticket if that helps. That's true. I'll have to DVR it since I won't get home until half time
  2. no Bears for me :(
  3. Loving these early season conference games
  4. I'm more distracted by his alien ears
  5. We'll see. The 49ers won't have Bowman and Smith. Might not have Boone either if he's still holding out. And Ray McDonald just beat up a pregnant woman. It all falls down. That should skip the 6 game ban and go straight to lifetime. That's disgusting
  6. I hope another team claims Sam. I'd like to see him make a roster
  7. Now your sig is too big and it stretches the formatting of the page
  8. They're going to wonder why we can't date our game threads correctly
  9. So.....I thought someone started tomorrow's before starting tonight's. Silly me
  10. While I'd love to see Bama lose, I foresee 28 straight points by the Tide in the second half
  11. Is Green-Ellis hurt? Why would the Bengals cut the guy who led the team in rush yards and TDs the last two seasons?
  12. Franklin just assumes dude is out of bounds and doesn't call timeout. You call the timeout first, THEN argue he was out of bounds. Good for Ficken, though. Guess they ruled he was moving backwards when he went out, which doesn't stop the clock. Dumb rule
  13. Glad for the win, but that game was gross. Should've won by 2 TD
  14. The chance that this is shown locally is very slim
  15. Meh, not really analogous. The minor league players are already playing for the organization you root for, whereas we generally have no idea where the college guys will be going once (if) they're in the pros. It's analogous in that the level of play is far inferior to the "pro" level, and that a small percent of the players will make it to the big leagues. There are also far more ways to have a "successful" season in college. In the NFL, being "division champ" is mostly meaningless, but being Big 10 or SEC champ is worth something. So is winning a bowl game. So is winning a rivalry game. As for fantasy football, I avoid it because I think it would ruin the NFL for me rather than enhance my enjoyment. I'm a Bears fan, so my interest is in Chicago and the NFC North. I don't really care (nor want to care) about every player on every team and who scores X points, etc.
  16. I find it interesting that some of the people who claim to hate college athletics are very much into minor league baseball.
  17. or changeups in the dirt
  18. Some people like recruiting better than free agency/trades. Some people like rooting for a school instead of a city. Different strokes for different folks
  19. I love college sports, probably more than pro, but not for any concrete reasons. I just do. And no fans are worse than Boston fans, that's a given.
  20. You've just described almost every major city in the Midwest save Chicago. Columbus Ohio is the worst "big city" I've ever lived in. Their idea of authentic food is Skyline Chili. You ate at the wrong restaurants. There are great places to eat here
  21. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LZc-OSqE2fo/UXtzN1EDUDI/AAAAAAAAtLk/de41FCozGOI/s640/burns_excellent.jpg
  22. Recognize the GREATER GOOD before I have you slain for wearing a crusty jumper. my post wasn't an indictment on his future It still angered me. http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120329163810/simpsons/images/e/e1/Don
