  1. Its better than the current setup between the Leagues, I do think NL managers would keep their starters in there longer to get that one more ab. Not to sound like an old man but Id just get rid of the DH in the AL.
  2. Great with x's and o's then run them into the ground by Sept?
  3. Compared to Kansas and Kentucky?
  4. yeah, not even close. UK would kill us. Kansas beat La Tech, who has a higher RPI than UK. Checkmate. Purdue hasn't beaten an FBS school. Check-Checkmate. Only beating ISU by 6 is a very good case. Although I think Purdue will beat Illinois in a close one.
  5. The bandwagon is growing....

  7. Congrats to Kentucky on being the worst in any of the major conferences (including Purdue and Kansas).
  8. Thats what I was thinking as well. Still undecided on Romo or RGIII.
  9. Which 1 would you not play. V Jackson Decker Boykin Hicks.
  10. The two QBs I like in the mid to late rounds are Garoppolo of EIU and Mathews of Cornell.
  11. Here's an article from the best Chicago has to offer: http://www.csnchicago.com/kapman/baseball-insider-evaluates-cubs-search
  12. I'd hesitate on that (assuming Cutler is back) if McCown does well, there's a chance it might end up being productive as a system type QB builder (like Flynn in GB). Without a 7th rd pick and the massive holes, that 2nd rounder should be a productive starter on either side of the ball, We seen last year with guys like Bray and even Barkley in the 4th, those projects can come later.
  13. The offense looks very good and it's still early in its development. It isn't exactly young but it isn't old either. It's also possible to alleviate the defensive problems with one really good draft (obviously will take some luck). The offense is definitely in its prime years with the defense needing to be rebuilt, it has happened before with a one year turnover with less talent in that previous year. I think the defense needs at least 3-4 new starters + young talented bodies to create depth. By the time the Defense can bridge the gap with the talent level on the offense Cutler, Forte and Marshall will be near the end of their prime. Not sure if that is extremely negative, or just realistic. It's pretty realistic, Emery will need to have a hell of a year with FA and the draft. Luckily, it's been proven to happen. With that said, they're going to need much much better game planning from Tucker for that to occur.

The offense is definitely in its prime years with the defense needing to be rebuilt, it has happened before with a one year turnover with less talent in that previous year. To clarify, I meant early in its development as a system. And yes, I agree. I was piggybacking what you were saying (I just went by age rather than time in the system). I hope I'm not as argumentative as goony.

  16. Stacy-HB Wallace-Flex I'd probably go Manning over Pryor, Mcfadden should be back this week healthy enough to take a large % of carries and Manning will likely be in a shoot-out with Philly (despite their recent struggles)
  17. Hopefully Boston sweeps the series, Cubs hire Lovullo and I get to hear it from you penises every time they sac. bunt, bring in a crap reliever, and/or get caught stealing.
  18. Frazier and the OC up in Minnesota should be fired immediately. That was worse than any playcalling I seen from Shoop, Turner, Croton, Martz, or Tice in the past 15-20 years. He's inaccurate when he knows a system, now he knows nothing and you want him to throw it all over the field with the best running back since Sanders in the backfield.
  19. Is he saying something about McClellin keeping contain on the edge, since he's always 10 yards away from the QB? He specifically said he thought Shea played the run well. He has to defend as much as possible, he bashes him, the next question becomes why did he draft him. I hate stupid answers like that.
  20. While being dominated, he is taking one player out of the equation for the opponent.
  21. That's one of the main reasons I'm in favor of shifting to the 3-4. I think it plays into their main strength, which is their LB core. Much easier to bring back Williams and JA or Shea, to have a solid starting core. But, both of you are right, it does seem to jumpstart a defense and if this offense has 2-3 years max, they'll need it.
  22. Can't we just somehow blame that big bald prick for this? I blame Tucker for not starting Steltz over Wright. Best safety since Plank or Fencik.
