I'm trying to remember wasn't there another game recently where a big play was negated by a delay of game penalty? I want to say it was either a MNF or SNF game late in the game.
Very smart challenge by Lovie. Any other team i'd say unless it was blatently obvious don't challenge it. But I don't at all feel convinced the Bears can score from this position so its a good challenge. Edit: And it appears everyone else is thinking like I am too.
Maynards punts today: 39 yards, 40 yards, 37 yards, 28 yards, 34 yards. Average of 35.6 yards. If that was his season average, he would be 32/32 for qualified punters in the league. As it is, his season average is only 38.8 which is 31st out of 32
That was hilarious. Williams got completely run over and shoved into Cutler quicker than he could drop back to pass. Does Williams get credited for a sack? This team is so unwatchable
I was more or less talking about teams that have won before. Yanks - 09 Sox - 07 O's - 83 Rays - Never Blue jays - 93 White Sox - 05 Twins - 91 Indians - 48 Royals - 85 Tigers - 84 Angels - 02 Rangers - Never Mariners - Never A's - 89 Phillies - 08 Braves - 95 Mets - 86 Nationals - Never Marlins - 03 Cardinals - 06 Brewers - Never Astros - Never Reds - 90 Cubs - 08 Pirates - 79 Dodgers - 88 Giants - 54 Rockies - Never Diamondbacks - 01 Padres - Never So yeah of teams that have won before it goes Cubs (08), Indians (48), Giants (54), Pirates (79), Orioles (83)
Wow either the Giants (1954) or Rangers (never) are gonna win the world series. I hope the Giants win, and then the Indians do next year so there is 71 years between the next longest team (I think the Pirates of 79) and the Cubs.
If they have plenty of arms in the pen why did they bring in a starter on 1 day rest to get outs for them. I just thought it was an odd move that's all. If you just need a few outs, even on short rest why not go to your best pitcher? If they clinch tonight he'll be fully rested to start Game 1. Because he just pitched on Thursday? I wasn't surprised when he didn't look particularly sharp. It's not a do or die game, and the Giants have a decent bullpen don't they? I just feel like it's an odd move in this situation.

Geez I don't know about Lincecum on one days rest coming in. This means he probabaly won't be available for Game 7. I realize the starter only lasted 2 IP tonight, but seems like a bit of a panic move. Oh and the Giants are 5 outs away from the world series. The collapse should start now if the Cubs paralells are to come to fruition.
And the Hawks lose another game at home. 5-5 after the first 10 games of the season. Maybe we should consider that good considering the injuries and suspensions of the first 5 games. 38 SOG tonight for Columbus, absolutely unacceptable. The Hawks are not going to be very good if our defense isn't limiting SOG because our goaltending is not good enough.
