    Remember they still play in the NFC. Seattle has laid eggs the last two weeks. New Orleans just lost to Washington. Dallas got killed by New Orleans last week and has been up and down.

    The funniest thing, at least for me, about this is that I'm watching the FOX postgame show and Jimmy Johnson just tried to say not to worry about the Bears defense because most of the points were "scored in garbage time when the game was over".

    Carolina packed it in a little early this year.

    What Sammy did wasn't right but the Cubs did just as much as he did to tarnish this relationship. It was clear the Cubs wanted him gone and they did all they could to try to tarnish his image with the fans as they could. He was the only reason to watch the Cubs for a number of years. And how do you know a higher percentage of Sammy's HR's were either solo's or when the game was over than the average player? If you have stats to back your claim up then go ahead and present them. But you thinking something is true doesn't make it true. This isn't basketball and one player can't completely change a franchise. Last time I checked, Sammy wasn't a part of the pitching staff and was only one of nine hitters in the lineup. There's only so much he can do. He singlehandedly led the Cubs to the playoffs in 1998 and almost did it again in 2001. Once again, you have stats to back up your claim that he "wasn't able to seal the deal when it was needed most". You claim to be a big fan of him yet all you did in this post was diminish his remarkable achievements.

    There was a thread started a couple months ago which posed the 'is Bagwell a HOFer' question and I said the same thing you did. I too didn't realize that his stats were as good as they were.

    That is all. I'm not sure what's funnier, his away message or the fact that you have his AIM screen name.

    Pitt always plays a terrible schedule and is overrated. Maybe sometime this century the Big 10 will win a National Championship? Do you think? I think someone will this January. They should also be playing another Big Ten team for the title. I beleive we had a basketball team that would have won if not for standing within two feet of Sean May being a foul. Just because Illinois couldn't stop Sean May to save its life in that game doesn't mean you have to throw out untrue statements like that. Don't get me wrong, I was rooting for Illinois that year but there was no favorite playing by the refs in that game.

    It's last century. This century, and in this case millenium, didn't start until 2001.

    I don't see ARod retiring after his contract is up. His tune will change in the next couple years.
  12. soccer10k
    Yeah. I want him to recover but I don't want him on the Cubs roster.

    I agree. Furthermore, the Airing of Grievances Thread cannot begin until 12:01 Dec 23rd. The other threads can begin whenever. I nominate Jon to go to Naperville to wrestle Tim. I second that nomination. All in favor? <--in favor

    Washington's pass defense is probably the worst in the NFL: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef.php Cincinnati's pass defense: 32nd (i.e. last) in passing ypg. Washington's pass defense: 22nd in passing ypg.

    Thanks for posting that Marco, I completely forgot the draw was today. This stage of the champions league is amazing. Manchester United definitely got the best draw with Lille. Barca v. Liverpool-2 clubs with themost tradition and success in the world. Roma v. Lyon-should be a great match. Celtic-AC Milan-should be good. Milan has been down because of the match fixing scandal and are doing terrible in Serie A. Celtic has dominated the SPL and had the stunning goal to beat Man U to advance through the group stage of the champions league. Last but not least, Chelsea v. Porto. The draw could've been much worse for Chelsea, they easily could have faced Madrid, Inter, or Roma. Of course, there's the sub plot of Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, returning to face his old team, Porto. He won the Champions League with them in 2004. I'm really forward to these games. Real Madrid-Bayern Munich should be very good as well.

    Manning because Cincy's pass defense is horrendous.

    Seattle (-10) over San Francisco.

    Minor details.

    Those were some sick goals and yeah, magician is the right word. I liked the one where he beat the goalie, then beat two defenders along the goal line before putting it away. My dad told me about the Taylor goal although he didn't say the name. All he said was a guy had a wicked shot from just past the center circle. I love soccer.

    The draft is so deep in WRs that I wouldn't worry about missing out on Calvin Johnson - Jarrett, Ginn and Meachem should all be in the 8-20 range. I hope you're right, but I'm afraid Calvin won't drop below top 10 and if we keep winning, we'll be out of that area. Also, as much as I like Meachem, I doubt he goes above Calvin if Robert decides to leave early. I didn't mention Calvin because I think he's a top-5 pick. Meachem is with the guys like Ginn and Jarrett, I think. I see what you were saying in the post now. Sorry about misunderstanding it. I also doubt Ginn will drop below the top-10 so he's probably ruled out. After those two, with no disrespect for Meachem or Jarrett, I'd just as soon the Titans look at impact ends. The DEs in the draft are not high first round quality but if the Titans settle in around the teens, somebody like Abiamiri from ND or the kid from Purdue (maybe CubColtPacer or some other Big Ten fan can refresh my memory, I think his last name's Spencer) would look real good. Not that I wouldn't be happy with a WR, I just think Ginn and Calvin are a level above Meachem and Jarrett. Jarrett's going to be very good.

    That was a sick shot. To make it a little bitter sweet, Chelsea hit two shots off the wood work in extra time. But yeah, that shot was a screamer. I just saw the last 10 minutes of the game. How did Essien not score that goal? He was right there. My dad said it was a very good game.
