    Quick trade them all back!
  2. UMFan83
    Boo. Trade everyone and start over.

    A "not really but kind of" power play goal!!

    Lebrun picked the Blues to win the division, but the Hawks to win the Cup. Probably thinking the Hawks have a Cup hangover but get a 4 seed and then turn it on in the playoffs.

    Ugh Mully and Hanley were throwing out some terrible names this morning, including Ozzie Guillen, Don Cooper and Bob Brenly.
  6. UMFan83
    Definitely not shocked that guys like Girardi and Scioscia might be itching to take over a team that is about to get a bump in young talent and resources so they can be the ones to get credit for a 20-30 game turnaround.

    And yet he supposedly had no idea 2 weeks ago

    A repeat Cup is extremely hard and I've already outlined the reasons I'm worried about a Cup hangover in the offseason thread, but I am not sure how a successful year for the defending champs with a fairly intact roster and a mostly young core could only be a conference finals appearance. A successful year for this team is a Stanley Cup championship.

    2 weeks ago that wasn't a thought in my mind either.

    Kinda adds up with some of the uncharacteristic weak throws he had. Meh. He also had some wild overthrows too. I guess you could speculate that he was overcompensating though. Whatever, he had a bad game, no need to find reasons or excuses. Just get better
  12. UMFan83
    I think thats the only way 7 teams would make sense. I like that, the less byes the better IMO

    I think the communication issues were outlined in Theo's statement as well. Like handling Castro's mental gaffes over the last 2 years, the situation with Gregg, Edwin Jackson and Shark the last couple of weeks, etc.

    His broken thumb? That was against the Chargers in 2011. Thought I remembered Cutler getting knocked out of that game. Also seem to remember there being a hit on Cutler in that game that gave more support to the bountygate controversy at the time. Maybe a concussion? I know he got concussed in the Giants game. ETA: Nope, I'm wrong. He was just attacked mercilessly in that game. No injuries to speak of and the only qb of record in that game. Actually the controversy (sort of) after that one was Cutler was allowed to finish the game, which was a blowout. Sort of reminds me of yesterday.

    I'm actually excited about baseball for the first time in months.

    It was a Sunday late game back in 2011. Yeah that shell I was talking about where Cutler goes into when he gets pressured too much, he was in it the entire second half. But to his credit, a lot of drop backs he wasn't getting much time at all.
  17. UMFan83
    Wish we were playing this game in December. They always seem to have sucked against us in the cold when we played them in the past.
  18. UMFan83
    didnt we score 2 on Saturday?
  19. UMFan83
    Sometimes when Cutler faces a lot of pressure or makes a lot of mistakes early on, he kind of goes into a shell it seems where he holds onto the ball too long looking for a wide open receiver or only throws very conservative passes. He did that after the 2nd INT today for a bit but seemed to break out of it with that long throw to Jeffery just before halftime. Frustrating that he does that though.
  20. UMFan83
    I can't remember, do they have any restrictions for trading their bonus pool, other than the normal ones every team has?
  21. UMFan83
    Just like to get the view of the general fan base.
  22. UMFan83
    Just got back from Detroit, didnt get a chance to listen to the postgame shows, how are the meatballs taking this? Look, Jay Cutler sucked a lot today, but I am worried about the typical extreme overreaction from our idiot fans. I mean just this last Thursday after Cutler started the season great and the Bears were 3-0 there were still fans calling into the Score who weren't exactly loving the idea of resigning Cutler. I gotta think that number grew after today.
  23. UMFan83
    I have to stop going to Bears games. 6 in a row. Someone start the next game thread, my streak is over.
  24. UMFan83
    He was wide open. He airmailed it. Stafford hits that throw every time Funny you say that today of all days when Stafford has airmailed multiple throws.
  25. UMFan83
    You think we can somehow trade for Carlos Gonzalez without giving up any of our top 7-8 prospects (Baez, Bryant, Soler, almora, alcantara, pierce, cj, adrois)?
