    Trestman is worse at clock management than Lovie
  2. UMFan83
    Terrible, at least throw a couple of passes towards the sideline
  3. UMFan83
    Will the Bears run out the clock when they get the ball with 1:05 left and 0 TOs and possession to start the 2nd half?
  4. UMFan83
    Here comes the 3rd and 7 thoguhts of "wow one more stop and we can hold them to a FG oh wait they just ran for a 1st" Edit: Oh wait they really did get the stop
  5. UMFan83
    How was there not an ejection there?
  6. UMFan83
    None of that should have happened ugh
  7. UMFan83
    Makes you appreciate the Bears D of yore. Figures we have a good offense now.
  8. UMFan83
    Who else is there? Devon Hester?
  9. UMFan83
    This was just a terrible matchup for the Bears. Minnesota next week is also going to be brutal with Peterson
  10. UMFan83
    Are we dead last in run D ? Have to be close right?

    Actual jerseys and not jersey shirts? Cubs - Blue Aramis (thanks NSBB HR Derby!) Bulls - Black Jordan, White Gordon, White Rose, Red Noah Bears - White Vasher (wtf?), Navy Ayanbadejo (double wtf? Right at the moment I realized how stupid it is to get obscure but good players true fans would appreciate), Navy Briggs Blackhawks - Red Toews Jersey shirts include Marmol, Harden, Soto, Lee, Nocioni, Rose, Forte, Hossa, Toews, Kane

    Hinrich has been fine this year His 11.7 PER begs to differ. Well, still higher than Derricks
  13. UMFan83
    Hinrich has been fine this year

    Man its so weird having a Michigan game on at 11AM. I think this is only the 2nd time this year they've had a game start so early. I remember when it seemed like almost every game started at 11.
  15. UMFan83
    the sky is falling. doom and gloom. get angry. trade everyone. Edit: The Bulls started out 12-10 the year they went 62-20

    Reminds me so much of basketball Mark Prior more than anyone. yeah damn we're on that definite trajectory right now. Matches up pretty well. Comes up with a short time in the minors/college. Makes immediate impact and then has a breakout dominant year and leads their team to the farthest they've gone in the playoffs in years. Misses a concerning amount of time the next year and is still very good but a step below the previous year. The comes the major injury (ACL/batted ball to elbow) and when they come back they still look like the same person but don't play as well and keep getting hurt.

    Ratliff looks to be on track for next week, I believe. Heard nothing on Briggs in weeks though. Wonder when he can be expected back. Convenient timing for Ratliff to be back one week before the game against Dallas

    Who honestly can get all that upset over regular season losses? I have barely even watched the Bulls after the initial Rose returning excitement because the regular season is so meaningless.
  20. UMFan83
    Crazy how bunched up the West is. The hawks have the most points in the league but are only 2 points ahead of the 2 Wild Card spots.
  21. UMFan83
    What a cop-out. It isn't asking you to be a juror sentencing somebody to death. If you are an adult American you've probably heard enough about it to have an opinion. Well then I vote Oswald was the sole shooter because I don't really believe in pretty much any conspiracy theories.
  22. UMFan83
    I honestly don't know enough about the investigation to make an informed choice. The stuff that I have read, for every piece of evidence that there was a second shooter, I've seen convincing evidence that refutes the second shooter theory. I have no idea about Oswald not doing the shooting.

    The blackhawks aren't available nationally on wgn. The cubs aren't gaining national fans with wgn. That benefit stopped in the 90's specifically because it was no longer true that it was unique. Kids in 2013 aren't coming home from school with only 1 or 2 options to watch, and them being sucked into the cubs as a result. Aren't some of the Hawks games on WGN America, or is that just the Bulls? Not that it matters because at most its like 5-6 games a year, but I thought some were national. And yeah this. This isn't the 90's where the Saturday or Sunday night game is your national game of the week and that along with Cubs and Braves games are it if you don't live in a baseball market. Between ESPN, Fox, TBS and the MLB Network (not to mention MLB.tv) there are nationally broadcast games on almost every day of the week, in addition to hundreds of other TV channels, youtube, hulu, netflix, etc etc etc available for a 10 year old to watch when he gets home from school.

    There are way more pressing needs right now than tight end. While Graham is total stud, isn't there something to say about how much of his success is due in part to Drew Brees? And from a cap perspective, they're eventually going to have to figure out what to do with Marshall and then Jeffrey not too long after that. Although there seems to be some sentiment that Marshall won't be here after his contract expires next season. Be a bummer to lose that duo, because it sure is fun to watch Marshall and Jeffrey wreck havoc on opposing secondaries. I think the Bears will resign him if he's willing to do a 2-3 year dealdeal. I think having 2 big talented receivers like Marshall and Jeffery is key for Trestman's offense. Based on his comments subbing on the Jay Cutler show, Marshall loves Chicago and wants to play the rest of his career here, so I don't think it would be an issue on his end as long as he has a realistic expectation of what he should be paid.
