  1. I need score predictions I'm always scared to pick the Bears in our family pick 'em league....too much trauma over the years, ha
  2. Do we think Cabral's slider and cutter are just one pitch or the other? Numbers look really close
  3. Yeah, same. Steichen seems pretty decent as a play caller and head coach in general, but this Daniel Jones situation and Richardson not being a guy - hard to be great with that. Taylor is so damn good.
  4. Yeah, pretty silly outcome. Ball security matters at all times - a defender could have punched that out the way he was holding it up in space. I immediately thought of Javon Wims' drop and punching another player, the former Dallas RB who ran out of bounds instead of staying in...Marion Barber, there are so many others. Craig Steltz, Alonzo Spellman, just a neverending fountain of horsefeathers players.
  5. This is...quite a statement! There is a rich tapestry to call upon here, ha
  6. Me: He looks tiny, oh it's the guy in the middle

    NFL Week 4

    I think the Panthers picked up his fifth year option before the season

    NFL Week 4

    My FIL said something about how much he likes Herbstreit. I couldn't believe it, he is not my favorite color man by a wide margin. But I might still prefer him to Collinsworth

    NFL Week 4

    Go on.....
  10. Whoa, I love this - it proves Ben is a maniac First play has left to right on screen: Roush - Thuney - Bradbury - Jackson - Benedet - Wright - Kmet, with Logan Jones and Loveland in the backfield Second play has left to right on screen: Benedet - Thuney - Bradbury - Jackson - Wright - Roush, with Kmet in the backfield and Loveland coming in motion to chip the edge It has to make the Eagles defenders stop for a second and think WTF is this?
  11. For anyone into podcasts, the Cubs on Deck podcast is a pretty fun one. Bryan Smith (author of the piece above) is one of the contributors. I listen to it throughout the season. They are doing their postseason awards and went with Hartshorn for player of the year. Check 'em out
  12. I don't gamble, but isn't there a thing about setting a line intentionally high/low to provoke betting by the fanbase? For example, if the Bears got set as a 6 point dog instead of 3 to get more Bears fan to take one side of the bet or the other? This might be a different version of the line being influenced by the hype?
  13. I thought it was a young/fit dad from Family Matters for a sec
  14. They probably still did...
  15. If IU can do it maybe Purdue can inside of the next 30 years??
  16. Wasn't Conrad a top 5-10 pick w/o the injury? I get the risk of betting on his health. 22 years old, back likely not toast, but who knows.
  17. Got to be a humiliating moment for everyone involved. Think of the manager and coaches of this team - what an insult....
  18. I would pull a Chris Sale and cut up my jersey if asked to wear those lederhosen looking uniforms
  19. Poles' Top "Huh?" Draft Pick by Year 2022 Rd 3 (71) - Velus Jones <-- Cut from Seahawks; has SB Ring 2023 Rd 3 (64) - Zacch Pickens <-- Cut by Giants, appeared in 3 games last year 2024 Rd 3 (75) - Kiran Amegadjie <-- Appeared in zero games last year for Bears 2025 Rd 4 (132) - Ruben Hyppolite <-- One start when top 6 LB were hurt at the same time 2026 Rd 3 (89) - Zavion Thomas <-- Still on team (ha), preseason baller
  20. Are all these Sewell's from the same family?
  21. Horton will be back when?? Does anyone know?
  22. It had to happen at some point. Now the adjustment
  23. I worked on a project with a guy named Ted Holdsworth. He left me a VM and the transcription spelled out "ten holes worth," which immediately became my new porn star name
  24. Anything that keeps them out of orange is good with me
