  1. Versteeg looked like 2010 Versteeg yesterday. As for Rosival, if there is a team out there who is below the cap floor they might take him. Maybe this is why Stan is waiting until the last minute.
  2. I never bet a road favorite of greater than 3 points in the NFL. Pittsburgh will likely win but lots of points to lay.
  3. Home team was under the key number of 3 when lines came out, probably had a majority of the money come in on the Jets because of it. Vegas wants Bears money to come in to even it out.
  4. Interesting take on the cap situation and who gets sent off http://thecommittedindian.com/unto-breach-2-2-million-dollar-question/#more-10561
  5. Sunday's game was so frustrating. For as bad as the run D looked, they allowed 20 points in regulation, the offense should be able to score more than 20 points against the Bills. Just a terrible game on all fronts from the coaching all the way down. That being said Bears 24 Niners 23. Nothing to base this prediction on. Any status on Jeffery?
  6. how'd you pull that off? and here i was feeling good about getting my usual $15 for 3 months of xm by asking to cancel this morning. Tell them Uverse is in the neighborhood, and you are switching to them. They will ask you what they can do to make you stay. They are technically the same company now, but they don't want you to leave as long as your not locked into a contract with them already.
  7. Bears -6.5 o/u 49
  8. Bears 28 Bills 20
  9. The best was the top 13 why B&B suck. #13 being anti Ditka.
  10. Since its free to sign up for the list(unlike the Bears or Hawks) I would think maybe 1 out of every 10 people on the list would actually decide to become season ticket holders. With the team getting good, as others have said, the renewal rate will be higher. I'm just totally guessing on all of this though.
  11. Yep 30,000 exactly. 57,825 for me.
  12. I enjoy when one or both are on vacation and it is filled in by someone else, I might be in the minority but I enjoy when Rozner fills in. He is the only one who actually talks hockey and trolls the Vancouver Canuck fan base any chance he gets.
  13. I have too.
  14. If they add two teams (Vegas, Seattle) the conferences would be 16/16 but if they add Toronto and QC they are 16/18 unless they move back either Detroit or Columbus. I believe this realignment plan is only a 2 or 3 year deal anyway so they might redo it again or tweak it.
  15. This Or old man Ricketts had the ground crew outsourced for cheap foreign labor to save some money.
  16. I was at the time #3 on season ticket waitlist, so that Saturday night the Bears called and asked if I wanted to buy two tickets in the north end zone so of course I took them. Some idiot Bear fan was taunting a 12 year old in the bathroom, so I guess it can go both ways.
  17. Got tickets to the only 5pm Sunday start of the season (January 18 vs. the Stars). Sounded like a great idea for bringing very young kids that go to bed around 8, but just realized that could conflict with a possible 2pm NFC championship game for the Bears. Wonder if that actually happened if they would move the Hawks game back an hour or so? I hope this is something I have to worry about. That happened in 2011 when Bears played GB at 2pm. Hawks were supposed to play Philadelphia at 2pm, so they moved the game to 1130am. I remember listening to that game on my phone as I was walking around Soldier Field to get to my seat. The Hawks got killed and the Bears lost. SOB Ha! I was at that game too. Sat in front of an obnoxious female Packer fan who sounded like she smoked 4 packs of cigarettes a day for 40 years. I turned around and she was about 25 years old. Terrible day.

  19. For me, its not something I grew up watching. I never understood it. Probably why most Americans dislike soccer too. I love hockey, I grew up with it, but can understand why someone doesn't like hockey if they never followed. I grew up watching the NBA, I used to love it, and I feel that it is now a garbage league, that caters to mostly a casual sport fan, because there is not much to the NBA game anymore.
  20. I agree, it will be very tough to establish intent, considering he ran towards Stewart. But I could see Stewart being banned from racing for life.
  21. just reading through some comments on internet stories about this, it is amazing the excuse making people are making for this guy.. Maybe Stewart could invoke "Stand your ground"? Typical rednecks. I see this took place in NY, so luckily its not Florida.
  22. Called directv up to try and negotiate a deal for extra innings. No dice. $120 for the remainder of the year. I tried every trick in the book. Finally told them to eat my balls. Call them back, tell them you are canceling service(As long as your contract expired) tell them AT&T, Comcast or whomever is coming out to switch you over for half the price you are paying DirecTv. I did this last week, they threw in Sunday Ticket and Showtime for free, and knocked off $25 off my bill. I would think they could do this with MLB extra innings.
  23. As a fan I would have loved to see them on that show. But I can see how it could be a distraction.
  24. I agree, and why wasn't Hack Wilson on the list. Or for that matter Frank Chance? Or anyone else who actually won a WS in a Cub uniform.
