  1. That was an awesome play call on 3rd and 8 by Martz. He brought all 3 WRs to one side and then snapped it as the Packers were audibling. Very nice start.
  2. Not if no one is open.
  3. Typical Bears run to gain 0 yards. Nice pass!
  4. Who would you rather win tonight? I'm assuming you consider the Packers the more formidable foe and would rather the Bears win because its more likely that the Packers are a bigger threat to the Vikings for the division?
  5. Wow 3rd straight year that a message is sent to Tommie Harris. What a bum. On espn they said he's not injured, he's not suspended, they have just elected not to use him tonight. Obviously they are sending him a message because if they were just demoting him they would leave him active to backup his position.
  6. Funny thing is, I don't think it ended up having an impact on the game did it? I know they got a FG that temporarily put the Packers head by a point, but either way the Bears were up 15-13 when Rodgers had that 50 yard TD with a minute left, so it still would have been a Packer win. (yeah I know butterfly effect but whatever)
  7. who are you trying to convince, freakshow I don't know...is he a Packers fan?
  8. Hopefully tonight he won't try to take the game into his own hands by audibling to some weird direct snap to the up man because he thinks the Packers have too many men on the field. Pat Manelly was tired of being an afterthought in the NFL. Until one day, he decided to take matters into his own hands. That night he was no longer "Pat Mannelly, the long snapper"....he was "Pat Mannelly, the #$%( scrub that cost the Bears the $%&(#$# game!"
  9. I'm about one Bears-Packers game from trying to set up a "Bears fans only" game thread and if the Packers losers want to have their own thread have at it. Oh wait, we already have that. It's called this thread and the "Week 3 NFL" thread. And if the Packers fans have a problem with that, they can petition to move the Cubs to Wisconsin. (see I told you my civility would go away as game time approaches. I'm sorry but it's like the Cardinals...I've trained myself to dislike the rival so much that those that choose to follow that team just seem so dispicable to me and its beyond my comprehension why anyone would choose to follow that deplorable team. Luckily, A) I've learned to only view a person in that light when my team plays theirs, and B) I don't take myself or sports seriously enough to really truly feel that way about the person, beyond sports banter. But still....)
  10. This is like Bo dying on the eve of the biggest UM-OSU games in the rivalry. OK maybe not.
  11. What kind of dirty question is that? All guys do. For me, usually only when the girlfriend has a headache or is just not in the mood.
  12. Now he can join Luke McNown, Jeff Garcia, and (probably) JP Losman in the UFL!
  13. Did you know....If Carlos Zambrano can keep his ERA below 3.77 in his last 2 starts (he's at 3.56 right now), his ERA will have dropped in each of the last 3 seasons. 2007: 3.95 2008: 3.91 2009: 3.77 2010: 3.56
  14. I have this really bad feeling that Michigan might lose to Indiana this week. I hope I'm wrong.
  15. 11:41 a.m. monday where are you Can't you read? He's in N/A
  16. I can see both sides to the argument. If you kick the XP, its an 8 point game meaning that even if you somehow give up a TD, they still have to convert the 2 point conversion, which I think is like a 60% conversion rate. On the other hand if they go for 2 and get it, game over. If they don't get it, the worst that can happen is they tie it with a TD. I tend to side with the XP because I feel so much more secure when my team is up by 8 vs. when it's up by 7, given the odds that they drive down the field and score and then still have to convert a 2 pt conversion.
  17. Wow, I didnt realize that the winner of this game will be the last unbeaten in the NFC and one of either 3 or 4 unbeatens in the NFL (at time of writing Miami is down 4 in the 4th quarter)
  18. haha I love it, a GM makes a mistake, and the best thing to do supposedly is to make another mistake (offering Riot arby) so it seems like the first mistake wasn't as big of a mistake.
  19. The general theme of the Bengals season seems to be people starting to finally realize or admit that Carson Palmer has been fairly mediocre for multiple seasons now. It's becoming less likely that he will revert back to a guy that can win games with his arm instead of being a glorified game manager. What happened to him? Was it the injury that has caused this?
  20. Next Cubs game at Wrigley Field in approximately 6.5 months.
  21. Yup, the exact lineup I was hoping to see in the home finale.
  22. Bulls should be overwhelming favorites to win that division (you'd think) If Bogut is healthy, no. You must not have heard. Derrick Rose said he's good at 3s now. Must have been what allowed him to make the cut for Team USA over the superdupermegastar from Boston. Oh wait, I forgot Rondo quit the team on his own accord.
  23. Meh, there's no point. I think Bears fans all want to pick the Bears, and Packers fans definitely want to pick the Packers. Without predicting who wins, I'll predict a 23-17 score. Everyone is expecting a shootout but I think the D's will step up.
  24. I have a lot of respect for that Bucks team, so while I'd consider the Bulls favorites, I can't bring myself to consider them overwhelming favorites.
  25. The Chicago Cubs gave up 13 runs tonight. In their previous 11 games, they gave up a combined total of 15 runs. Way to end a fantastic stretch of pitching with a bang.
