    Ohio State lost to a bad Va Tech team And Baylor lost to unranked WVU. And TCU lost to a team who lost to an unranked WVU. What's the point? I'd rather lose a game that went down to a last possession at va tech then get absolutely steamrolled at home vs UCLA. ohio state lost by two touchdowns at home to Va Tech

    He's played 14 games in the last 3 seasons.

    I've been offered the following: Antonio Gates/Terrence West/Harvin for TY Hilton/Roddy White It's a 14 team league and my best receiver is Hilton (have a decent amount of depth at WR) but am lacking at the RB position since Zac Stacy was a complete bust and Ben Tate has been passed by West. I'm currently starting Tre Mason at my one RB position (1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex) My current TE is Vernon Davis, also a huge disappointment, but I can flex Gates out. I'd be losing my best WR, but potentially could replace Hilton with Gates and gain another starter in West. RWhite sits on my bench right now, so he's not a big loss at this point.

    Bowen is one of the least meatbally former player turned-reporter that's in the industry right now. Surprising to see him so vocal about the lack of accountability.

    Auto-bids for the Power 5 (which is an even worse idea, but it's going to happen). They're not expanding to 8 without them. Almost every league has 3-loss teams at least kind of in the race for the title, especially with the unbalanced schedules in the SEC and B1G. Current leaders: ACC: 7-1 Duke, 8-0 FSU B1G: 7-1 MSU/7-1 OSU, 7-1 Nebraska B12: 7-1 KSU P12: 8-1 Oregon, 7-1 ASU SEC: 7-2 Mizzou, 8-0 MSU LOOK AT ALL THE 3 LOSS TEAMS RUINING COMPETITIVE FOOTBALL. 2012: 8-5 Wisconsin (yes, I realize they only got there because OSU and PSU were ineligible) 2011: 9-3 West Virginia, 10-3 Clemson 2010: 8-4 Connecticut 2008: 9-4 Virginia Tech 2005: 8-4 Florida State 2004: 8-3 Pittsburgh So seven times in the last 10 years a 3+ loss team would have played for a national title. the big east (football) doesn't exist anymore so that sample size includes power 6 conferences, not power 5. That makes it 4 times in 10 years, or 5% of the schools in the national playoffs, in which a 3+ loss team playing for a national title.

    I feel bad for laughing. but i can't stop laughing

    It was? I seem to recall loving him at that price. There were a lot of people who thought it was too much. There are even people who still think it wasn't a good deal after the fact, shockingly. I think it was the number of years that initially surprised people

    Meh, it was probably a slight overpay even if you factor in the extra playoff revenue. But depending on what Corey Black does for us that could still change. It definitely wasn't anything like the sort of albatross people made it out to be, though. I wasn't a fan of the signing, but it turned out about as well as could reasonably be expected. Hell, I can't think of more than a couple mega-deals that have worked out any better. Probably depends on how far back we're going on this definition of mega-deal. Derek Jeter signed a 10 year, 189m deal in 2001 that seemed high at the time, but worked out pretty well. I guess the difference there is that wasn't a free-agent signing. Zack Greinke contract looks ok. But other than that, most big-time FA deals don't pan out as hoped.

    Hillman and Wallace. Seems like Sims, at best will still be splitting carries with Rainey, who played well last week.

    Welp, Cleveland will probably go 8-74 and yet will still be ahead of the celtics But the Celtics won their first game, I don't understand. But the Celtics will go 5-68... http://cdn3.gurl.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/hangover-math.gif

    Butler has slid two years in a row, not sure how much bounce back he has in him. Rumors on sports radio here is they are listening on Gordon, Hosmer, and Moustakas. Would love to get Gordon, but imagine they rightfully have a high value on him. Mooose tacos isn't very good and hosmer is ok, but i can't imagine they'll get much of a haul for him.

    He was also asked not to play too hard on defense in college because he they wanted him using all his energy on offense and they didn't want him getting in foul trouble. Like Michael Wacha of basketball. funny story, doug is a giants fan
  16. Thed Hoyerstein
    Unbelievable that he's become quicker and more agile with professional training? Also, to David's point, that's spot on. Doug's defensive positioning was usually quite good, and we never got a chance to see him defend on the perimeter since he was matched up against mostly 4's in college.
  17. Thed Hoyerstein
    After watching Doug for the last four years, it's clear that he's improved significantly on the defensive side in the just the past 5 months. he's more athletic than people gave him credit for, but he's certainly quicker than he was in college

    That doesn't tell me a whole lot. Sure, the news conference thing is odd since they had press conference tape on Arians, but it's still not the most outrageous request to make. As for the skepticism around Marinelli, I'm not sure why Arians, who would have been the Bears head coach primarily because of his offensive aptitude, would resist against retaining a D-Coordinator of Marinelli's caliber, especially when the majority of the defensive players would be familiar with the scheme and verbiage. I guess in Arians defense, Todd Bowles has become a hot coaching commodity in just two years.
