Bears game 11: Sunday, Nov 28 vs PHI on FOX
Magnetic Curses replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
all coaches are loyal, though. the coaches maintain their assistants and players because they actuall DO believe in them. remember our coach before lovie and a certain offensive coordinator he simply would not let go? -
should have pursued morrow.

derrick rose is officially a superstar.

msu gets hosed in the closing seconds.

Nice. i was hoping truffle would see it.

what is fisher's problem with young? i'm sure if kerry collins were healthy he'd just start him until he died.

why is texas still behind the illini?

Intangibles. He has a ton of them. Leadership, clock management, confidence. Also very mobile and can throw on the run very well. I take issue with the clock management idea. Not on my eye test. He led some late drives in last year's run, but he takes bad sacks by holding onto the ball and isn't very efficient with his decisions. And while those are the typical intangibles of a solid college QB (which he is) they generally don't land you on the top of draft boards. Teams generally spend a 6th or 7th on such players and hope they can develop into a backup. I would put him below Kyle Orton when he came out and nobody was talking about Kyle Orton when he came out (at least in my mind). he's also got a really slow release and terrible arm. Orton or Stanzi? stanzi

the little receivers are a bad matchup for us. they tend to slip into the cracks in the zone. vick has generally not been a quarterback that can hit those spots. though, this year he has been different. he'll cause as many problems for us as he caused for the giants. we probably won't win. but who knows, this offense has been doing it with smoke and mirrors and the defense has been great as long as briggs plays. -
yahoo only scoring me 1 touchdown for baltimore's defense when they obviously scored 2. anyone else getting this problem?
-
jeez, sell out that blitz a little more you idiots.

i will say this though, of all of the great collegiate players nolan richardson had at arkansas, only joe johnson and a handful of nba career role-players had more than a chocolate milk and a taint massage in the league. hell, scotty thurman was 6-7 and could shoot, couldn't even get drafted after hitting a shot over grant hill to win the national title. i don't even know if he played in the cba nor do i care.
-
perhaps, but just because a player plays it in college doesnt mean he will be a worse pro because of it. i never said that, though.
-
if you're not going to credit deron williams to self, then you have to credit him to weber. just for future reference.
-
you gotta admit, 40 minutes of hell is the biggest gimmick college basketball has to offer.

Re: College Football - Week 12 (Nov. 20th)
Magnetic Curses replied to bcl412's topic in Other Sports
in the video the illinois player did have his hand on the facemask and Thomas does kind of look like his body gets turned. I dont think the video shows that there was or wasnt a facemask...I am just saying that the fans who were closest to the play seemed to think it may have been a facemask and didnt really get to worked up about if he was down or not. that's irrelevant what they thought before the replay. what did they think after they saw the replay? the replay also very clearly shows that there was no facemask and that the hand involved in the play was slapping the ball out. if he was carrying the ball between his facemask and his face, it could have been a penalty, i admit. -
it's entertaining either way

my word, they're gonna rip each other apart.

it looked like a throat punch

"SHOW ME THE CANCELLED CHECK!" "um, it's uh, it's right here." "OH. WELL [expletive] YOU MOTHER-[expletive]!" "yeah, apparently mrs. selby signed it over to jd wentworth." "YOU CAN'T PROVE NUTHIN!"

jennings is so good.

she didn't want her son turning into a soulless creature with no nation. i would argue that she is doing what's in his best interest.

whenever a guy drops a certain pick, something bad happens soon.

i just don't understand why anyone would name their kid arian, especially a black person.
