    Hopefully the Bears offense has 35 points in them today.

    If a defense is going to suck id rather them suck quickly then get cut to death with 1000 3rd down conversions
  3. UMFan83
    So Calvin is going to rape us instead of Bush this time?
  4. UMFan83
    Every meatball that had even one thought about McCown starting instead of Cutler just shut up
  5. UMFan83
    But his second one looked dead sexy
  6. UMFan83
    Cutler's first throw did not look pretty
  7. UMFan83
    Lets go Jay

    Hoke loses his first game at home as Michigan head coach. Would have happened in the next home game anyways

    Details. "If you look over the history of Chicago sports that have won titles you have Ditka, Quenneville, and even the minor league team in town had Guillen. The one thing they all have in common(started racking my brain about Quenneville's playing career at this point expecting a dumbass Sandberg question) is they all have fantastic mustaches. What are the chances you could get Rick Renteria to grow a mustache?" Great question you stupid [expletive] [expletive] I'm super intreaged. What was their answer?!??!?

    so did this dude have anything interesting to say in his press conference?
  13. UMFan83
    I know this is probably just talk but Cutler and Trestman both said he was 100% healthy and would have no limitations during the game Sunday, meaning he would be able to scramble and throw the deep ball like normal. We will see how true that is on Sunday. Unless you think Cutler believes he's Wally Pipp right now, you have to think he's as healthy as he could expect to be by midseason. It will be two full weeks. three full weeks

    Supposedly these are the pajamas jerseys the teams on XMas day will be wearing http://snynets.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/christmas1.png?w=664&h=212

    Most of the posters on NSBB thought 75-80 wins was doable in 2012 and 2013 too. 75 wins might have been possible last year without trades

    Just need to get Briggs, Ratliff, Conte and Wright back from their injuries. Wait Conte and Wright aren't injured?
  18. UMFan83
    is there a press conference?

    This team is not going 34-11. Why not? 2010-2011: Bulls started out 12-10, finished 50-12 2011-2012: Bulls went 50-16 2012-2013: Bulls started out 8-8 finished 37-29 w/o Rose If you don't think its possible for them to play 62 win pace over the next 45 games, you are placing too much emphasis on 4 games with: -a reaclimating Rose -Noah basically having his preseason -a brand new offense installed -games against the Heat, Knicks and Pacers with 3 of the 4 on the road

    Man the Score was a fun listen on the way to work this morning. Everyone sucks and has to go, there are multiple players on the Pacers better than any Bull, GarPax didn't sign a superstar in the offseason, Rose needs to go, Deng needs to go, Noah needs to go, Dunleavy really needs to go. There's no heart, no one cares, the players are giving up on Thibs, Thibs is giving up on the players, Thibs wants to stick it to Gar by making his players suck, Rose wants to stick it to Gar for not getting him help by underperforming, Rose is still hurt, Rose should have came back in the playoffs to get the rust off, Deng has given up on the Bulls, etc etc etc etc These will be the same people calling in to praise the Bulls in January when they are 35-14.

    Yeah. I have no worries that he will be a star again but I've soured on him as a person in general the last year or so And you'll sweeten on him as a person soon enough again. Come on. I didn't say I dislike him. Just sick of his personality. I defended him throughout the injury saga last year, so I'm the last person to call out for hating on him.

    Hub Arkush is on the score publicly campaigning for the job

    Hah thats funny, I also had tickets to the last game of that season, and forced my dad to take me thinking/hoping the Cubs would still be alive in the WC race. Had a fun time at the game though. Went to the last game in 2004 as well hoping the same thing only to be eliminated the day before.

    How does somebody get into baseball late? If I wasn't obsessed with baseball as a kid in the 80s I probably never would have paid attention in my teens. I didn't care at all about sports until the rumors of Jordan coming back in spring of 95 got me amped up to watch the Bulls. The game he came back against the Pacers was the first sporting event I really watched and was interested in watching (I remember other games being on in the house but I didn't care all that much). That was when I was 12. Then the Bulls' season ended and the Cubs were having an OK year and the 95 season sucked me into baseball. Football was next that fall, with Kramer having that huge year throwing to Conway and Graham. I don't know which is more weird, getting into baseball late or being drawn into the Cubs during the mid-90s. Well the 95 team was in the wild card race until the last weekend...and then a couple years later the whole Wood and Sosa thing in 98 probably helped reel me in for good. I'll be honest, the 95 team pulled me away from the White Sox for good. I was kind of in the middle and really liked those early 90's Sox teams. Then the Cubs won me over with a strike shortened 73-71 season for some reason.
