    so your theory is that our offense is built entirely on guys who destory bad hitters but are completely helpless against good pitchers, while other successful playoff teams' offenses are full of guys who hit pretty well against bad pitchers and pretty well against good pitchers. yeah, that's a perfectly reasonable conclusion.

    There have been other similar things reported elsewhere too. Also I read a quote from Hendry like a week ago where he said that they wouldn't have been able to take on Peavy's salary, which is kind of weird considering he said in the same article that they tried to work out a trade. Kind of confusing. But yeah, that Dempster signing looked terrible to begin with and now it's just looking worse and worse

    not only have the bears choked, but my second team (bucs because i live in tampa) is choking even harder. 9-3 and then they lose 4 straight and are going to miss the playoffs after blowing a 10 point 4th quarter lead at home to the raiders. awesome day kind of cool that philly has a chance now though. that seemed highly unlikely a few hours ago

    19-6-7 Yeah great Chicago can boast of 33 games of good hockey. Maybe we can make the playoffs for the first time in 7 years white sox

    why? i'd rather have them win so the entire bears team can feel like crap about how the division was handed to them and they couldn't take it

    Don't know why you'd want to but: http://cutting-edge-streams.com/livestream.htm how do i get this to work? it's just showing a picture of a bears football
  18. 17 Seconds
    i take it back. saying they'd lose by 2 tds was too generous. they're losing by at least 3
  19. 17 Seconds
    does anybody know where i can watch this game online? i usually use myp2p.eu but it's not working

    how long will andre johnson's td reception be on this drive? i'm going with 43 yards
  21. 17 Seconds
    why? i figured the texans would beat the bears
  22. 17 Seconds
    i think the bears lose by at least 2 touchdowns
  23. 17 Seconds
    none of this will really matter when the bears lose

    The notion that a team could have fatal flaws that go virtually undetected over 162 games, but then suddenly are exposed in three games, is flat out comical. If the Cubs' offense was such a problem, then it would have become abundantly clear over the course of the regular season. To think otherwise is silly. They are playing the same game in October as they were for the first 6 months of the year, after all. stop it with this reasonable logic

    First of all, stp using the "____ said this is the case and he knows way more about baseball than some internet message board poster" argument becuase it's a huge coupout. Don't you always complain about the Soriano contract and hendry? Well "Hendry has forgotten more about baseball than you have ever known! He makes millions of dollars while you post on an internet message board" See how that works? When you say stuff like that it just hurts your arguments. Anyways, show me where Lopu said that the reason the Cubs lost in the playoffs is because they didn't have enough speed and athletisism in the playoffs. Oh wait, he didn't. Listen dude, you NEED to stop with this stuff about them having some offensive flaw that only shows up in the playoffs. If you want to complain about the group of offensive players and say they'll continue to choke in the playoffs, then go ahead. That's a valid concern. But don't act like the reason they didn't score runs in those 6 games has to do with the type of offense of the way it's built. It's just makes you look really dumb. Sorry, but that's the truth. They couldn't handle the monet. It's as simple as that.... it really is. It had nothing to do with anything else. They couldn't handle the pressure and did not perform well. Just stop.
