  1. Hmmm...ok Tice, might need to try to draw up some different running plays
  2. He didnt challenge. I thought thats why the ref came out and explained that the play couldnt be challenged. I dunno I have a lot of distractions in the room I'm watching in, and an itchy finger for ripping on Lovie, I might have misheard
  3. Nice play! I do worry that the Seahawks offense has been able to take big chunks of yards from the Bears, but so far we've stopped them when needed.
  4. lmao of course Lovie tries to challenge it simply because the play didnt work out like he wanted it to. What a buffoon.
  5. It's a stupid call....yes the Bears offense is rolling, but the running game isnt. Plus the Bears red zone offense isnt that great, so there's no guarantee that you get the TD even if you convert. To me, getting the double digit lead and putting the pressure on Seattle is much more valuable to me. Plus, I'm not running the ball straight up the gut when we've done that several times in the game and gotten nothing out of it.
  6. Agreed, and that was before they failed
  7. Gah, the run blocking sucks today. Ballsy decision here..
  8. Stuff that only I think is interesting: The Bears have started the game on defense in 9 consecutive games and overall in 10 out of their 12 games. They have won the coin toss 7 times and deferred all 7 times They have lost the coin toss 5 times and the opponents have deferred only twice (STL, IND)
  9. I love the Bears passing playcalls so far. Trying to let the offensive line affect the game as little as possible
  10. Yeah if he blew the whistle and made that call isn't that the end of it? Well I know one things for certain...the Seahawks certainly can't challenge whose ball it is like the announcer suggested they should do, lol.
  11. Should probably stop fumbling the ball

    I think the Rams should really go back to their old bright blue and yellow unis. They are wearing them today vs. SF and they just really stand out better.
  13. No one talking about Marshall sitting on a table getting his knee looked at by trainers? Also, Forte doesn't look right today. Looks a step slow.
  14. Well I'm glad the Hawks got to hoist the cup before it was rendered meaningless by this farce of a league.
  15. Brian Wilson is pissed that the Giants released him and has said he has no interest in resigning with San Francisco. I wonder who would make a play for him.

    NFL Week 13

    I don't think anyone is thinking concussions are the most likely reason, but given how much the story has been in the press lately, I'm not surprised people are bringing it up as a possibility. There could be a million reasons why but in the last 2 years Dave Duerson and Junior Seau both killed themselves and (I believe) their suicides were traced back to concussion related injuries (I apologize if this is incorrect). Also within the last decade in a different realm of entertainment, Chris Benoit snapped and killed his wife, young kids, and later himself, and afterwords was shown to have major brain damage caused by concussions. It's something that's fresh in the minds of your average football/sports fan. I think its just so random and out of place when a NFL starting linebacker randomly decides to murder his girlfriend in front of her mother and then drives to his team's practice facility to kill himself in front of his bosses, people immediately try to make sense of a senseless situation.

    Thanks Crennel and Pioli? That's traumatizing. I can't see how the Chiefs play their game tomorrow.
  19. It would have been even better if the Spurs won that game last night and Stern still did this. :lol: The sad thing is that it's not even about that for Stern. As he said last night, he's mad that fans are buying tickets to see Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, etc and the Spurs send out their 2nd team. The fact that the Spurs were thought to have thrown the game is a just a secondary result. How is this any different than teams resting stars at the end of the year when they are locked into playoff spots? His argument is this is November and the Spurs havent clinched anything, but where do you draw the line? It's stupid....Stern is meddling way too much.
  20. Mr. "Take a flyer" himself starts a thread about non-tenders. All is right with the world.
  21. Is that Vince McMahon?
  22. I'm trying to think if the Chicago writers would be more likely to vote for Sosa or less likely. If it's more likely, Sammy might not make it to the 2nd ballot.
  23. Tie game in Cameron with 6 minutes left? Guess it's down to PSU Looks like a tie (win) this year. [expletive] the ACC. Ugh, it seems like this should have been an easy B1G victory this year. WTF happened to Wisconsin and MSU?
  24. False Louisville: 48th biggest TV market Washington DC: 8th biggest TV market Baltimore: 24th biggest TV market /Jim Delaney
  25. On his radio show on Monday, he said that he would be clean shaven the next time he was on the show the following Monday, so I'm guessing that means he shaves it on 12/1 at 12:00 AM
