  1. someone has to take the credit for the 2005 WS win, and hell be damned if its Ozzie or Williams
  2. He and Marshall are the only ones who have done anything. And Marmol is not exactly setting the world on fire anymore. Maybe you can help me with my dilemma. I'm hungry but the store wants to charge me $100 for a loaf of bread. Obviousy not starving to death is worth $100, so I should do it, right? Of course. says the man with the $6k television set <<< slightly jealous
  3. jesus
  4. The reason I swear so much is because [expletive] you.
  5. Bostonians define "civil" as something entirely different then the rest of the world when it comes to baseball
  6. honestly, I think you have the wrong poster I think he was trying to be nice to you. then he's just confused, I only touch winners.
  7. Pinto is a bust? if anything, the Cubs have a much better track record with developing pitchers, your list kind of points that out.
  8. so does Peyton have a broken leg? also, screw Schwartz, Harbaugh was overly excited, but I doubt his handshake was anything malicious
  9. honestly, I think you have the wrong poster
  10. and the Cubs wont give up McNutt because Theo and Ricketts wouldn't allow it to happen
  11. Or don't come here and pretend it's locked. Nobody is forcing you to click on the thread. but its sooo hard to not watch the train wreck that is the accumulation of your posts
  12. they grow up soooo fast
  13. I have no problem giving up McNutt for another stud bb player, but giving him up for a manager who we are already are giving a promotion to is insane. Boston should settle for Brownlie and cash. and yes, I know BB isnt around anymore.
  14. he looks exactly (albeit 125lbs heavier) like a coworker of mine.
  15. the point is they can't just choose to keep him upright. They aren't good at blocking and they aren't good at receiving. They aren't good at gaining yards and they aren't good at scoring. Get a better receiver and things will be a little better. they did a hell of a job of it last night against the best pass rusher in the league, and his croonies who aren't too bad at it themselves. They can choose to do it. before yesterday, Minnesota had the 3rd most sacks IN THE LEAGUE (also to note, Detroit is surprisingly not as good and Chicago's 4 sack game yesterday will likely move them up): http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?archive=false&conference=null&role=OPP&offensiveStatisticCategory=null&defensiveStatisticCategory=SACKS&season=2011&seasonType=REG&tabSeq=2&qualified=true&Submit=Go
  16. keep Cutler upright, and it isnt an issue.
  17. yea, I'm not convinced this ever has a chance of being anything but a mythical dream. If Miamis issues are on offense, why would they trade away their best offensive player? idk
  18. In 2008, the last year he was with Cutler, he has 12 receptions for 5 td's in the red zone. which is why I pose the "QB and OC" question. the QB part of it seems good, but throw Martz into it and what do you get? again, not opposed, just tempering my own enthusiasm for something that is already a long shot and may not even pay off if it was executed. Roy Williams has done better more recently: http://www.nfl.com/player/roywilliams/2506096/situationalstats?season=2009 and had 4 last year
  19. Epstein + Beckett for McNutt and cash. i
  20. actually, the red zone inefficiencies make me crave Olsen more then ever. 3 catches, 3 TD's inside the 20: http://www.nfl.com/player/gregolsen/2495700/situationalstats
  21. yesterday (and when the offense clicks in general, ie pass protection), getting to the red zone was never a problem. Getting into the end zone IS an issue for them once they do get inside the 20. I'd love to get Marshall, but I'm not sure he makes the impact many seem to think he would.
  22. Marshall has 1 [expletive] catch this season in the red zone: http://www.nfl.com/player/brandonmarshall/2495893/situationalstats how much of that is the QB and OC, and how much of that is his abilities?
  23. Having more yards does not automatically make one a better receiver. well no [expletive]. the point I'm making is that we need a CJ type (who can score once we're in the red zone) and less of the BM type (whose numbers translate into more a possession type).
  24. the only thing Johnson does better is score TD's. Marshall consistently has more yards per year http://www.nfl.com/player/calvinjohnson/2495647/profile http://www.nfl.com/player/brandonmarshall/2495893/profile
  25. dont know if it was posted and I'm too lazy to look, but a deal by Wednesday (?): http://www.chicagonow.com/cubs-den/2011/10/report-boston-asking-for-trey-mcnutt/
