  1. Instead of 2-14 they'd have a shot @ 4-12. If Jay goes down it's over The Bears have a future Tom Brady or Kurt Warner waiting in the wings. You just watch!
  2. Whatever little rubber chips they are using at the new Meadowlands stadium makes it look like everyone has drips of blood all over their arms and faces.
  3. "if a couple of the Hossas and Hjalmarssons get hurt, especially given their lack of cap space, even after dumping Huet, they're in for a world of hurt." What team could really overcome 2 of their top 8 players getting hurt? This isn't a problem that is specific to the Hawks.
  4. Niemi still not signed. Any word on anyone wants him?
  5. I've heard Josh McCown's name thrown about. He is with the UFL now, but could walk away from that. He also has experience with Martz.
  6. You are right that they shouldn't allow spectators to stand in it. But the rules regarding bunkers were clearly made available to him and was pasted on the wall in the clubhouse. Dustin said he didn't bother to look at them. The players in the clubhouse who were watching the coverage on TV were talking aloud saying that Johnson better not ground his club. Unfortunately he did. I dont know a lot about golf, did him breaking the rule give him an advantage? The idea behind the rule is that you aren't supposed to be able to test the "firmness" or condition of the hazard by putting your club on it. That and you could possibly knock over some of the sand in back of the ball on a buried or bad lie on your follow through and make better contact. You can also get a little more balance by grounding the club, but in reality grounding the club does little to affect the shot.

  8. Johnson should have known or asked. A big bunker-shaped hole filled with sand is usually considered a bunker. Yeah it stinks, but rules are rules.
  9. The NFL Network but not until tomorrow. Also goto this site and see if the stream works: http://atdhe.net/ Nice it works. What is that thing?
  10. If you are out of the Chicago area, there is no way to watch this game is there?
  11. I had a feeling that unless the Braves won the World Series this year, he was coming back before the injury. His contract goes through 2011 and I doubt he could leave $14 million on the table.
  12. Yep. It was a pretty incredible defensive play.
  13. I'm OK with the turnovers if they do in fact score 3-5 more points per game. With an improved defense, this team just might be OK.
  14. Which is why the Bears really need a solid backup.
  15. I feel ya. I'm 29 and would be considered almost past my prime for professional sports. That's just not right!
  16. How much have ticket prices gone up?
  17. Him and the rest of the linemen too
  18. Who is "they"? Most everyone in golf has made a ton of money because of Tiger.
  19. yeah well, corey pavin is a [expletive] idiot. Today Pavin said that the Jim Gray interview that had him saying he would choose Tiger was misleading and that he did not say that. Who knows what to believe now. If Tiger doesn't improve soon, he shouldn't be picked for the Ryder Cup. He is 119th in Fed Ex Cup Points and about 160th in scoring average. Yes he is the number one player in the world, but that is after accumulating years of great playing and is not indicative of his current ability. There are just plenty of better people to pick. Plus Tiger hasn't played particularly well in the Ryder Cup at 7-11-2 even though he is holding down 10th place for Ryder Cup Points. But even that 10th place in the Ryder Cup standings does not reflect the fact that most of Tiger's points have come from last year. I still want to see how Tiger does this week. Woods has played well in the majors this year, and if he plays well at the PGA Championship, Pavin might pick him because Tiger is usually a great big stage golfer.
  20. Pavin just said "Of course I would pick Tiger since he's the number one player in the world." Maybe there is a private and public Ryder Cup discussion, or maybe you were talking to someone who looks like Corey Pavin. :D
  21. If you didn't notice that was exactly Pujols' routine to start the game If you didn't notice Pujols wasn't in the papers talking trash and telling everyone how much he hates the Reds.
  22. Phillips is a moron. How can you say that in the paper and then tap Molina to start the game?
  23. You were a true visionary. A blind squirrel can find a nut once in a while. The Cubs know they have their SS for next year. If they brought Castro up in September and he did well, I am not convinced they would have penciled him in for 2011. Isn't there a chance that they would have found a veteran SS to backup or compete with Castro in spring training next year if Castro had a mediocre September?
  24. Back to Brett and the texting. Last Monday when the news broke that Brett said he was hanging it up through a series of text messages, ESPN showed clips of Peterson and Allen saying they had received texts from Favre and texted back. I assumed that they were talking about the news of the day - that Brett gave them texts saying he was retiring. ESPN made it seem that Peterson and Allen were responding to the specific "this is it" text when the Vikings players were just talking about texting they had done with Brett during the offseason.
  25. Abdullah on the Vikings will fast (no water or food) from sunup til sundown to honor Ramadan during training camp. He can have a protein shake though. I have to hand it to be him for being a faithful Muslim cause I can imagine that is not easy to do. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Ramadan-means-no-water-during-workouts-for-Husai?urn=nfl-261068
