    Good to see Noah is still Noah. Bring on the [expletive] BULLS. The cure for the Bear blues.

    Is it just me or is CSN's audio feed fucked up?

    INT #2 for Roeth. Injury clearly having an effect.

    Merry death-mas everyone.

    It was really bad. Obviously the human body is not meant to move in that direction.
  7. Soul
    Soooo moved on from this, long ago.

    True. At least next year we will have Cutler again. I'll be waiting.

    Yeah. I did not expect this.

    Not that it matters, but yeah. Another in the line of soul crushing injuries for the 2011 Bears. What a brick-wall splat of a year this was. Yikes.

    NFL Week 15

    Soul replied to ELCABALLO45's topic in Other Sports

    Well I guess this bit me in the ass, didn't it? But 13-1 is still pretty damn good. And if they were gonna lay an egg I'd rather it be now than in the playoffs. It seemed an obvious thing to say. Perhaps. But 19-0 was a pipe dream. It's unnecessary pressure to put on a ballclub, especially with the dilemma of resting players that always comes up. Then you throw the Jennings & Bulaga injuries into the mix -- the pressure mounts to start resting more guys. Are there still scenarios left where the Packers wouldn't be the #1 seed?

    That's just idiotic. He slipped on the crappy Soldier Field turf. Blame the park district if you're going to be ridiculous about it. Not that I'm excusing some of Knox's dumb plays, but to blame him for the way the season turned out is just way off base. Knox trips in domes, he trips on natural grass and he just plain sucks as a #2 WR as does Hester. Hes a situational receiver in my mind as a #3 or #4. He giveth. And he taketh away.

    Yep there's more than one WGN feed, and it does seem like the Hawks are on the local-only one a lot.

    Never a good idea to circle back, right into the defender Tim.

    With Jennings hurt last week and Bulaga this week, I wonder if the Pack will start resting players more now.

    I'm hoping for draft position now. That's pretty much it. If any young player can prove he holds promise for the future, I'd be interested in finding that out. Beyond that, this season has cratered. Total tankage. On to the Blackhawks and Bulls.
  18. Soul
    It's just so weird how the blackout rules work. I'm exactly the opposite. I get no Bulls or Cubs games unless I subscribe. But Blackhawks? I get those without Center Ice. Except the Chicago-local only ones.

    Most good NFL teams are extremely dependent on their QB and when he goes down they usually suck. The Packers, Patriots, Saints, Falcons, Cowboys, Giants, Steelers, etc. would all be having a Bears like run right now if they lost Rodgers, Brady, Brees, Ryan, Romo, Manning, Big Ben for the season. When Brady went down in the first game for the rest of the season the PAts went 11-5. But the Bears don't have the best coach in the history of sports. I think the Steelers would hold together some level of competitiveness without Big Ben, too. Not playoff level, but losing every single game wouldn't happen.
  20. Soul
    The thing that really sucks is we have to continue to play games. There is no point to playing more games.

    Joe Paterno

    Soul replied to Prizefight's topic in Other Sports

    Normally I'm opposed to capital punishment but in the case of people like joe paterno I'm willing to make an exception. What Paterno has done over the entire course of this thing has been pretty awful, I grant you that. However, it seems like a lot of people (not necessarily talking about NSBB) are more mad at Paterno than Sandusky. Yes, Paterno was an awful, horrible piece of crap for not doing anything and allowing it to continue, but Sandusky was the guy actually doing it. ....because Sandusky stands to get what he deserves, while Paterno is more in line to get off without real punishment. That irks people. I know it irks me.
  23. Soul
    Damn. I've been totally blowing off hockey due to other things. I'm going to have to start watching this team again :)
  24. Soul
    Angelo's been just good enough to hang around, with a franchise that doesn't pull the trigger quickly on changes, and a team that has tasted just enough success to make it highly unlikely ownership will go fish. Nobody's talking about this if Cutler doesn't bust up his hand. We're sailing to another playoff berth, and people are talking about what a great job the coaching staff has done turning lemons into lemonade on the OLine, Cutler developing into a leader, yada yada. That said, personally I would like to see what a different GM could do with this franchise. I'd like to see a fresh face around here, maybe even some youthful exuberance.
  25. Soul
    I don't get how it could get any worse, for us. We just witnessed a tanking on an Epic level. Do you really care if the Seahawks put a bullet in our brain after we're already dead?
