    I hate both teams in the Super Bowl. Ugh.

    Corey Patterson stood up and walked off the field after tearing his ACL. That came immediately to mind. Not saying it happened to Cutler, but you can stand after tearing it.

    This offseason is going to [expletive] suck.
  4. Outshined_One
    why? he's a part of the team and probably cared about the outcome of the game. what are they going to do, have him sit in the locker room with his thumb up his butt watching the game by himself? They totally should have carted him off the field.

    When was the last time this team had a LT worth a damn?
  6. Outshined_One
    Here's hoping the Redskins offer a third rounder for him.

    After this game, Aaron Rodgers, Ted Thompson, and Mike McCarthy should all take cell phone pics of their junk and send them to Brett Favre with the message "How about these nuts?"

    I really, really, really hope Lovie and company don't get extensions. That game was a pretty bad indictment of the coaching staff. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of blame to go around, but the coaching in that game was pretty bad.

    That's definitely wise, especially when you're the Oakland A's, but what if you're the Red Sox or the Cubs and you have the money. Is it good to let the talent walk and get the picks and rebuild the back end of your bullpen over and over again? Truly asking... The difficulty I have with locking up Marmol for big years and money is that he always seems like he's one bad pitch away from having his right arm fly into the fifth row behind home plate. Plus, there are a number of guys in the high minors who could step forward in the next year or two who could provide quality outings for much cheaper than Marmol. Plus, I have to think Marmol's 15.99 K/9 and 0.12 HR/9 will regress next season. Relievers with big contracts always make me skittish. Marmol is no exception. Anything over two years would be difficult to stomach if his production falls off.

    Burgess and Vitters, imo.

    Hey, Mark Peel. Who's Mark Peel? Used to be a regular around here who went by mlpeel. Really knowledgeable guy with prospects.
  12. Outshined_One
    Works for me. Glad the Cubs upped their offer for him; he seems like he'll be worth it. Callis

    Burgess likely gets to start off the year at AA. Holy hell I just realized that roster will be loaded. I'm thinking it'll look something like this: C Michael Brenly 1B Rebel Ridling 2B Ryan Flaherty SS DJ LeMahieu/Junior Lake 3B Josh Vitters RF Michael Burgess CF Brett Jackson LF Matthew Spencer SP Trey McNutt SP Chris Carpenter SP Brooks Raley SP Dae-Eun Rhee SP Alberto Cabrera Solid team, overall. A million things could change between now and the start of the season, but I like the makeup of it on paper.

    Come on [expletive], let's get some trash talk going. I hope Clay Matthews gets arrested for soliciting a prostitute the night before the game.

    That's what bugs me about Burgess. The Cubs have had a shaky history with hitters who have issues striking out and making contact. Now, at least Burgess has shown the ability to draw walks and also had a possible breakthrough in AA at the end of this past season (depending on how much weight you want to put on ~85 PAs). It's not like the Cubs will have to build him from the ground up. Still, curious. It's hard to ignore his upside.
  16. Outshined_One
    Kind of figures the Cubs would trade Gorz, despite the underrated numbers, but if Burgess is coming back, I'm intrigued.
  17. Outshined_One
    WHAT'S IN THE BOX??!?!?!?!?!?
  18. Outshined_One
    Well, at least they'll cover the spread.
  19. Outshined_One
    What in the blue hell was THAT?
  20. Outshined_One
    Time for the Soldier Field audio guy to play "Walk Idiot Walk".
  21. Outshined_One
    Tee hee!
  22. Outshined_One
    Tommie Harris ate his Wheaties this morning.
  23. Outshined_One
    That's twice for Corey Graham. Hot damn.
  24. Outshined_One
    "Green Bay Sucks" chant. Yay.
  25. Outshined_One
    I I've always wanted an explanation from the cubs/bulls/hawks/packers combo fan.its weird to me +1 Some of you people have fan allegiances that make no sense whatsoever.
