  1. Not many receivers in the NFL catch that in subzero wind chills. he plays in chicago. And that was a terrible throw. no it wasn't. it was just too hard.
  2. That was a [expletive] throw. i agree but i don't care how hard it's thrown, when it hits you in the head you should have caught it. this is the nfl Ridiculous. well that accomplished a lot. i don't care how cold it i. when you get thrown a 10 yard pass DIRECTLY AT YOUR HEAD, you should catch it.

  5. that was an easy 6 if he caught that too. that's on both orton and hester. you can't blow that
  6. all hester is good for at this point is deep plays to hopefully draw a flag.
  7. yes but it's frowned upon
  8. well good thing we punted
  9. this is what happens when you take a mediocre defense and make them stay on the field for the entire first half
  10. *camera cuts to a confused lovie smith*
  11. i don't think they'd even beat arizona. despite warner's recent bad play, i think boldin and fitzgerald would tear this team up
  12. First, nice semantical wiggle-out. Second, 07' was the first time since 97' that he didn't meet that threshhold, and he blew past it in 08'. So he's a lock. well considering he'll turn 37 early next season and the fact that he recently put up an .881, i don't think you can say he's a "lock". i'd bet on a .900-.950 OPS from him next season
  13. sidney crosby never dives THAT bad
  14. that dumbass shouldn't have touched it. just let it go out of bounds
  15. 3rd and long and they give it up? i'm stunned
  16. man the nhl needs ore guys like this. just look how entertaining he is. he makes me want to watch hockey so bad. he's so awesome.
  17. yeah so throwing them to the ground is a perfectly reasonable solution and we don't know she was pregnant in that video
  18. There aren't a lot, and Manny isn't one of them anymore, since last year he didn't break that threshold. He did... easily
  19. Wow you see I really dont get the point to a post like this. First of all where is the reasoning to say you would rather have Pie out there than Anderson. Looking at Anderson's numbers the past few years they're pretty much average numbers. What in the world has Pie done for the Cubs to make you think he would be better than anderson out there. I'm a big Pie fan and still feel he has potential but i'm not dumb enough to say i'd rather have him than anderson. By no means am i saying that the cubs should sign him because i'd prefer them not too but then again I wouldn't be mad if they signed him to a cheap contract. I'm pretty sure the same idiots posting those smartass remarks are the same ones who said "oh good no", "Sign Gaetti" when the cubs ended up signing Edmonds and how did that work out. Just because the guys is old doesn't mean he can't be of some use, its not the cubs would be signing him to a multiyear deal. Pie has potential, Anderson had production. Pie makes the league minimum, Anderson would cost several million. Anderson would be a signing that makes no sense at any level. Pie at least makes sense monetarily and with the hope of the type of production he's actually had in the minors given regular time in the majors. With Anderson at least you know what you'll get and what you get at this point, is more than what you'll get from Pie. With Anderson all you know is that you're going to get pretty crappy production and bad defense. With Pie you're going to get extremely good defense and questionable offense. I'd take Pie. You pretty much know Anderson is going to suck. At least Pie has a chance to be good and at the very least you'll get excellent defense.
  20. Just like the 3-12 Cardinals had nothing to play for a few years back when they beat the Vikings to knock them out of the playoffs? That's completely different though. That team was playing the spoiler role, so they had that to play for. That is motivation. The Giants have no motivaiton whatsoever. They'll be resting guys and basically just going through the motions and trying to avoid injuries. I'd probably rather have them play a crappy team than play a good team that has already clinched everything they can.
  21. The Bears are pretty much screwed. The Giants will have literally nothing to play for in Minnesota next week
  22. Yeah, def sample size. There are bound to be certain parks that guys hit better in. That doesn't mean that trend is going to continue
  23. Just about as necessary as this comment. Pretty poor comparison I'd say. I'm not a Jim Hendry fan but I don't understand why we have to give him crap for signing a bench player. I really don't care if you like Jim, or think its a good signing. Its the fact that your bringing it up in a thread about Garrett Anderson that makes it completely unnecessary. So that, in fact, does make it a solid comparison. You're right. I guess I should have posted it in the "Discuss Westside Rooter's avatar and sig here" thread. My fault. I don't know what I was thinking anyways... ruining a groundbreaking thread arguing whether or not Garrett Anderson sucks really bad or just sucks pretty bad.
