  1. That's a catch. Ball never ever hit the turf.
  2. I wouldn't lay any cash on it if I were you. It was an obvious fumble. He was referring to the crummy officiating thus far Ahh, gotcha. They actually might challenge that Berrian catch. Ball was moving.
  3. I wouldn't lay any cash on it if I were you. It was an obvious fumble.
  4. I'd rather have Chris Harris in there anyway.
  5. What did Angelo do to the commissioner? The refs are against us every freaking game. This is crap. That was total interference.
  6. They were also quite adamant that the Bears will lose today.
  7. Crap, the Fox channel is keeping the stupid Vikings game on and Sunday Ticket has the Bear channel blacked out! :evil:
  8. I die a little inside each time Chevy shoves Mellencamp down my throat.
  9. Not at all. I do so as well. If the Knicks are the worst team in the NBA for the next 20 years, I'll be a happy man. Oh, and I hope they keep sending us those lottery picks for junk. Mwahahahah.
  10. Dial up that OSU/USC title game. It's over.
  11. Watching the Bulls almost blow a 20 pointer to the Knicks was just too much to take. I agree. And blowing it to their bench too. Thank God they hung on in the end.
  12. Gonna blow it to the Knicks. The Knicks.
  13. Amazing what happens when the Bulls play relatively turnover-free basketball too. I think we have all of 6 through 3 quarters.
  14. Yay for a game that might be worth continuing to watch!!!
  15. My God you have to catch a ball right on the numbers on 4th and 4.
  16. I think part of what we are seeing is what happens when you play Navy, Air Force, then Army...........and then expect to be ready to play USC. The other part is USC's far superior speed, of course.
  17. Time for the big game. College football rules.
  18. True. I still like Corso's goofy-ness though. In the same way that I like Tom & Jerry cartoons 8)
  19. But I believe he punked us more than once last year. Sounds like a win for the Cubs.
  20. Because you're making the argument that you want the optimal offense because that is the offense that gives you the chance to make it to the WS. The other side is arguing that most WS teams don't have that top offense, so you don't need one. I think you're right, and using the argument that a team made it to the WS with offense X is like saying: "It's OK for the offense to be mediocre, cause medioce teams have won the WS before." Sadly, the Cubs will ignore their biggest problem (OBP) while Hendry is around. ...which I think everyone on these boards has difficulty understanding. Why would a MLB GM ignore an important metric such as OBP? I can't wrap my mind around it----and I sense almost everyone else feels the same. But nevertheless, it appears to make no sense.
  21. I don't think Wisky can return their Capitol One invitation, which they have already accepted.
  22. I don't understand why ESPN employs Lou Holtz and allows him to speak on national television. The guy makes statements that hold absolutely no merit and are completely off base. Don't get me wrong, Mark May isn't great either, but at least he puts thought into his arguments and provides a good reasoning to go along with them. As an ND fan, Lou Holtz embarrasses me at this point. When someone tries to make an argument for your team and they are so horribly bad at it that it can easily be shot down by the whole country, the country can become convinced that there is no better argument out there. Every time Lou says something about ND, it just makes ND look weaker and weaker because of his horrible representation of the facts. I hope he retires-soon. He should stick to being a motivational speaker and leave it at that. Lou should not be a public speaker anywhere. Just a horrible voice. I'd rather listen to him speak than Mark May. May's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Add to that his nonsensical arguments and it becomes difficult to keep from V-Chipping ESPN off my channel list. Lou Holtz's arguments are WAY more nonsensical than May's are. Lou Holtz just says that South Carolina and Notre Dame are going to win and that's it. May at least provides realistic arguments (whether or not they are correct) and provides adequate logic and reasoning as to why he's arguing that side. Holtz doesn't. Like I said in my original post, I don't like May too much either but May is, by far, the lesser of two evils. Yeah, but you know Lou is just a rah-rah kind of guy. It's forgivable. With May, there's a sense that he should know better.
