  1. You're right. They're so much better than everyone else that this should just be a battle for 2nd best. 8) Awesome and agreed.
  2. But you have to realize, Lelie isn't reporting to camp anytime soon, and he's a FA after this year I believe. It's a cap move and a team morale move. Fourth round picks aren't trash anymore (Nathan Vasher anyone?), and Michael Haynes has never been given a chance here in Chicago. It's definitely a better deal for the Bears, but it makes sense for Denver too. Talk about selling low...if Denver would've traded Lelie in the offseason, they could've gotten so much more for him rather than just a 4th round pick and Michael Haynes. Michael Haynes is a bust, plain and simple...I don't think a change of scenery will help him out that much. If I were Denver, I would probably request at least a 2nd round pick for Lelie. Yeah, they screwed up. They asked for Jones, which Angelo turned down, and were rumored to want a 1st round pick, but no one would give them that. I hope Angelo can pull this deal off.

  4. My dad said he heard on the radio (FWIW) that the Bears said they'd only take a 1st Rounder from the Jets. Good move, IMO, there isn't much on the Jets that I'd take, and maybe they'll get the Jets to feel like they have to get an RB and do it. It'd be cool to potentially have a top 5 pick next year.
  5. Dumpster time. Konerko just hit a solo HR off Mariano to tie it 5-5 in the bottom of the 9th.
  6. Ditto. OK, it's 50-50 that he's NOT coming back. It'll come down to whatever Hendry's gut tells him to do. So the Cubs are going to sign a cheeseburger in the offseason? Ahahahahhahaha. Post of the year.
  7. October, if not sooner. Oh Bruce, just come out and tell us. Did Dusty already sign his extension? We can handle it, I think. :(
  8. Why the long face? A Cub win tonight and a Cardinal loss moves the Cubs to 13 games back. But still 9.5 back in the Wild Card Not a chance. Oh there's definitely a chance. Not a very good one, but we're not out of it yet. As I said in another thread, a four game win streak could feasibly put us just 5.5 games out of the Wild Card with a month and a half to go. You're definitely a Mizzou fan ;)
  9. http://www.goingfaster.com/darkthoughts/lance-bass.jpg :lol:
  10. What, that stat that shows how much base cloggin' a player does? What a ridiculous notion!
  11. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/5905/news Uh...yes please. I'll gladly trade a bust in Haynes and a late pick for a solid WR.
