    Guys relax. We just need to give these guys some consistent play with each other. It's not about the talent on the line.
  2. UMFan83
    Tillman has looked awful today.
  3. UMFan83
    Our d is getting abused.
  4. UMFan83
    Sweet 2/3s of a quarter before Briggs is out again.
  5. UMFan83
    Haha wow
  6. UMFan83
    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

    Stop reverse jinxing us

    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)

    I kind of hope the Cubs win myself. That's a nice thought. As Kevin Garnett says "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!"

    I feel like everyone except for Hossa and Sharp have been disapointing this year. Just a slow start, a Stanley Cup hangover or what?
  11. UMFan83
    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.
  15. UMFan83
    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.
  16. UMFan83
    Yeah that's kinda unacceptable. It looked like it was gonna be a blowout in the 1st period, now we're on track for 0 points out of 4 this weekend.
  17. UMFan83
    If you are a wisconsin fan here do you want them to conclude its a TD, or 1st and goal from the 1 inch line with 1:15 left?
  18. UMFan83
    The good news is, neither of them look to be in a position to make the world series anytime soon. The bad news is, neither do we. Also, the Rangers didn't seem to be in that position entering this season.

    http://m.deadspin.com/5671226/this-is-what-should-happen-whenever-you-play-a-sports-video-game LOL makes me miss Burish.

    well said, lebron. well said. You forgot to include the part where he told the Cleveland fans to 'get over it'.
  21. UMFan83
    Yep, the last two. He did a pretty good job in those two games too. Yeah, he really did. Did his name get on the puck? I know Hendry's didn't due to the strict rules they have. Which seems silly. what puck? 1) LOL 2) I think you are talking about Bickell. Hendry played in the SCF, meaning he is on the Cup. Hendry is actually who Boynton replaced in the last 2 games

    I don't know why, but I took a stroll around the web right now to see what the media thinks of the Skins Bears game this weekend. -Peter King picks Redskins 20, Bears 17 -4 of the 7 ESPN guys pick the Skins, as well as the "pickskin pick em" fans. Accuscore has the Bears winning. I'll take the computer's judgement. -On Yahoo, it's a clean sweep for Washington, as all 3 of their writers, as well as 54% of Yahoo users, pick the Bears to lose their 2nd consecutive home game. -On CBSsports.com, 3 of the 5 guys pick the Skins, Pete Prisco is not one of them as he takes the Bears. When betting ATS (given as Chicago -3.5), Prisco stays with the Bears, and everyone else sides with the Hogs. Prisco BTW, predicts a 28-17 Bears beatdown. That's all I got.
  23. UMFan83
    I disagree. Last weeks Vikings-Cowboys game was as close to must win as you could get in October for both teams. This week if the Bears lose, worst case scenario, they are tied for the division lead and have half the tiebreaker against the team they are tied with. But I agree with your sentiments that this is an important game.
  24. UMFan83
    lol lol @ the irony in erik posting that statement, the irony of someone saying that politics are more worthy of getting worked up about than sprots, or both?
  25. UMFan83
    On a local scale like 7th or 8th grade. And yeah nationally freshman year of high school. That's exactly the gist I get from LeBron. Everyone said that LeBron was like a big kid when off the court. It doesn't surprise me that his actions are sometimes immature.
