    Kreutz and Angelo had a meeting. Didn't sound like it went well. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-27-haugh-dec27,0,1381841.column

    I agree with your second paragraph, but if Favre is audibling too often and not giving maybe the best RB in the league a shot to take over the game, Favre is wrong. Favre thinks he knows best, but he tanked late in the season last year, and his audibling in the last game of the year blew the Jets's playoff chance. If I remember correctly, Thomas Jones was running all over the place during that particular drive, but Favre thought he knew better, audibled, and threw a terrible interception that cost them the game. Childress is right here, but he should have known what he was getting into.

    It was a decent trade for Atlanta. They had too many starters. The White Sox and Braves were unimpressed with Vazquez down the stretch. The Braves needed a LF too.

    Thank god, it was like watching Chuck Knoblauch out there after he got the yips. Isn't Suisham the guy who had the kicking yips and was cut by the Redskins a few weeks back? Concerning Favre and Childress, from the comments I heard both of them make, Childress wanted to bench Favre for good, not just to run the wildcat. Even if it is the wrong decision, Childress has to take control of Favre.

    You don't take out someone who is/was in the MVP voting and led the NFL in QB rating for a good portion of the season when you are down one point.

    Lovie's press conference an hour and a half late. Could he be getting fired?

    Tommie Harris: "We had a rough week. I'm going to use that as an excuse," Harris said. "I think that [changing the time of the game] does have something to do with it. ... Dude, it threw my whole week off, my preparation. I was out of sync. I don't know what happened anymore. At least my rookie year we played good defense." http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/bears/chi-21-bears-bits-chicago-dec21,0,2581471.story What a baby.

    He is trying to fire Lovie before he gets fired. But then again, wouldn't he need to get Ted Phillips' approval before doing that? And if the McCaskey's want Angelo out, they will fire him and Lovie before Angelo fires Lovie.
  9. Wilson A2000
    What's his contract, anyway? If they won't fire Lovie because they owe him a lot of money... I feel like that's exactly why they wouldn't fire him. The McCaskey's are cheap asses. No they aren't. Lovie, Urlacher, Briggs, Hester, and Tommie are all highly paid. They don't lose their own stars to other teams. Losing star players outright through free agency in the NFL is pretty rare because of the franchise tag. But that means you are paying through the nose. The Bears picked up players like Tait and Muhammad too. They venture out occasionally.

    I hope Pace doesn't play at all

    I wonder if this game gets moved to Monday night. Ready for Mike and Mike to call the game?
  13. Wilson A2000
    I don't see how any pitcher other than the starter would contribute the most to the victory. Starter goes 6 innings giving up 5 runs, team wins 6-5. True. I would change my initial suggestion to a starter who performed a quality start.

    If there is one stat that I would like to see changed in baseball, it is this one. Imagine a scenario where pitcher A qualifies for a win, is taken out of the game after 5 or more innings (complete, not half innings), and reliever A comes in. Reliever A promptly gives up the lead and would be on the hook for the loss. During the course of the next half inning, pitcher A and reliever A's team takes the lead again and continues to hold it until the game is over. Pitcher A's team wins. Why should reliever A get credit for the win when he actually blew the game? I think the win should go to pitcher A. What do you think? Am I missing something?

    How did Silva ever get a contract like that? I can understand how Milton did, he at least had a few good years. But Silva...he must have a great agent.
  17. Wilson A2000
    I hate to say it (maybe it isn't a top game), but game 6 of the NLCS in 2003 could be an omission.

    She didn't just point it out. She said that he shouldn't have married a white woman.
  19. Wilson A2000
    He should have been boning black female billionaires. Are there even any?
  20. Wilson A2000
    But even those black women who cut Woods some slack for marrying Nordegren were shocked that every woman that has jiggled out of the closet in this sex scandal has been white. http://www.suntimes.com/news/mitchell/1939923,CST-NWS-mitch15.article Mary Mitchell has been a racist for a while. Why should black women need to cut Tiger slack for marrying a white woman?
  21. Wilson A2000
    You say Tiger should have foresight and not put himself in tempting situations, but you also say that he has no choice because women constantly sought him out. But he also, reportedly, met with casino owners who gave him private suites with ready access to women. Tiger sought these girls out because he wanted what he thought was the best of both worlds: married life and playboy life.

    i don't think taking pleasure in the suffering of others is very christian I totally agree
  23. Wilson A2000
    Accenture totally dropped Tiger as their spokeperson
  24. Wilson A2000
    More than anything, I'm surprised that celebs even attempt marriage. You're rarely home, and everywhere you go you'll have women throwing themselves at you. At some point, it's going to give. I'm not condoning the behavior, I'm just calling it futile to try and maintain a monogamous relationship at a young age and in those circumstances. I wouldn't even try. Not everyone is a strong as A.C. Green. And of course you're going to shack up with "regular" people, unless you want everyone to find out. Some people are looking for true love and realize that hooking up loses its luster over time. Some people try to find true love and also hook up. Tiger preferred the latter. As good as the sex probably was with beautiful women, I think pretty much every guy out there knows that it can get depressing knowing that women only want you for reasons other than love.

    Gillette is not advertising with Tiger until he gets back to golf.
