  1. At least Bears got the Giants on Thurs. They look like a hot mess right now.
  2. Lot of yards, a touchdown and no interceptions. Not surprising. It was more about how the offense (and defense) hasn't looked good in the 1st half for the most part and down 13 yet Cutler is really having his best game this season (at this moment anyway).
  3. At least Cutler's QB rating is 125.7 at halftime????
  4. Stop it. You are going to make Robbie Hummel cry and when Robbie Hummel cries, Da Bum eats more chili and from that point you are just asking for trouble from a butterfly effect of bad gas. Speaking of Robbie Hummel, I partied at the same tailgate he was at all day before the Purdue-ND game a couple weeks ago. Dude likes to party.
  5. Sign Cano, trade profar for Giancarlo and holy moley And move Kinsler to LF? Not it would matter if that actually happen.
  6. It was Mystikal. Silkk I believe is Master P's brother?? C-Murder is another brother as well I think? Man... this is making me reliving the junior high/high school days. Haha
  7. http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view3/3016978/master-p-tank-o.gif
  8. Have the Bears called a timeout yet in this game?
  9. I predict a 3rd down conversion.
  10. The main problem has been the Bears run defense. It's been downright FUGLY.
  11. You don't even want to know.
  12. I agree with all of this. He should make Arkansas a consistent winner and I think he'll recruit better than Petrino IMO. I second that prick comment (from what my cousins from Wisconsin have told me), but that's ok. That's a requirement for an Arkansas football head coach.
  13. One thing is certain today... Danny Etling is 29044298023423x better than Rob Henry.
  14. Whoa... I didn't know there were Razorbacks fans on here. I went to Architecture school there and I ALMOST drop everything last night and went to Fayetteville (10 hr drive) so I could tailgate/go to the game today. Still have friends down there who go to school that had extra tickets.

  16. I've been out of the loop on Purdue basketball stuff for awhile, but who are the other 3?
  17. Cutler vs the Lions 9 games, 7 wins, 158-248 63.71%, 1822 yards, 12 TDs, 1 INT, 100.2 rating
  18. Swerving around a raccoon is just as stupid as well. Have you thought of that? Plus do we know if there's other drivers/witnesses that saw the accident? If so, he can't say something when a witness can disprove it easily enough. That'll look bad. He told the truth and that's the right thing to do. It was stupid, but like Soul said, at least he wasn't breaking any laws (drinking and driving). Not really. Not even close. Swerving to avoid an animal is completely reactionary. If you're trying to grab a pizza, you are making a conscious decision to put your personal health and vehicle at risk over a $12 pizza. This is the dumbest argument ever by the way. But please, keep trying to convince me that trying to grab a pizza is equatable to dodging a moving object in the road. Also, please keep telling us of the merit of the football player that told the truth. So is swerving to avoid an animal like a raccoon. Both are reactionary moves. It's a raccoon... not a human being (get in huge trouble) or an animal like a deer (where it can REALLY do damage to your vehicle and health) or even another vehicle. Just run it over. I see raccoon as birds, squirrels, possums, etc. What's the worst thing that could happen if you hit one? Maybe a good size dent or crack on your front bumper or possibly a blown/flat tire? Most of the time it runs away before you get to it or doesn't even get hit. Anyway it doesn't matter on that part. Seriously... Why lie when you didn't break any law? What's the point here? He wasn't going to get in trouble in any way so tell the truth even if it does make you look like a stupid idiot and they laugh at you.
  19. Why would you even admit to that? Why not just say a raccoon darted in front of you? How about because that would be an unnecessary lie? Provided this is the truth, it's really not that bad an explanation. Stupid, but at least it's not him going out and getting wasted and then driving. All I'm saying is if I was stupid enough to crash my car while reaching for a pizza, I would lie about it regardless of if I was a famous athlete or not. Why a person wouldn't lie... I don't understand. Swerving around a raccoon is just as stupid as well. Have you thought of that? Plus do we know if there's other drivers/witnesses that saw the accident? If so, he can't say something when a witness can disprove it easily enough. That'll look bad. He told the truth and that's the right thing to do. It was stupid, but like Soul said, at least he wasn't breaking any laws (drinking and driving).
  20. I thought the same thing. I was thinking that Jay was going to slide, but then he thought maybe he doesn't have the first down yet (which he did by like 3 yards) so then he decided to do what he did.
  21. Just so you know... Only 2 guys in MLB right now this season have a 1.000 OPS or better. Miggy (1.092) and Chris Davis (1.001) with Trout close (.996). Goldschmidt is 4th with .962. Basically you're asking for a MVP caliber/top 5 offensively type player. Also why do we NEED him to be a 1.000 OPS guy again? EDIT: XZero77 beat me to it
  22. So it begins.... http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nfl--jay-cutler-wins-respect-of-bears-teammates-with-reckless-run-against-steelers-065030682.html
  23. 93.2 97.7 90.8 Cutler's QB rating each week. I wonder when the last time he had 3 straight games with 90+ QB rating. EDIT: Just checked and it was week 2-4 in 2009 the last time he did that.
  24. So the one time Big Ben had a huge nice pocket with nobody around him and he throws it RIGHT at Conte.
  25. Huh? Tafoya said the Bears said he could reenter the game if they really needed him. That's for Tillman. Not Melton.
