  1. that wasn't a lineman breakdown you dummies, that was a corner blitz. the line actually held up on that one.
  2. zambrano had excellent sink on his pitches today, very encouraging.
  3. didn't you grow up in boston?
  4. Really I see him as a Matt Clement type guy. A guy who can go out and give you 7 innings, 0 ER, or a guy who will go 3 and give up 7, but usually ends up somewhere in the middle and hopefully with more towards the former. Look at Wells' July to see how good he can be over multiple starts. matt clement had amazing stuff that he couldn't locate, though.
  5. so do we root to just lose every game from here on out?
  6. http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/news/story?id=5455675 i thought the part about "see what happens" is obviously a dig at turner. i don't think our receivers are the sharpest tools in the shed, so an offense that tells them where to be, rather then gives them the opportunity to react and other options probably wasn't best for them. "johnny, run as fast as you can to this spot and catch the ball." that'll work.
  7. what, you're saying that golf wasn't a revolving door of uncharismatic random faceless white dudes before tiger got there or...? i'm confused.
  8. they know who they are
  9. well that shut me up
  10. here's my latest projection. a little thin on the room, only 73k, but it's a 23 man roster, so there's more wiggle room built in already CAPGEEK.COM CAP CALCULATOR FORWARDS Patrick Kane ($6.300m) / Jonathan Toews ($6.300m) / Troy Brouwer ($1.025m) Viktor Stalberg ($0.850m) / Patrick Sharp ($3.900m) / Marian Hossa ($5.275m) Tomas Kopecky ($1.200m) / Dave Bolland ($3.375m) / Kyle Beach ($1.170m) Bryan Bickell ($0.541m) / Jake Dowell ($0.525m) / Jack Skille ($0.600m) Igor Makarov ($0.552m) / Jeff Taffe ($0.550m) DEFENSEMEN Brent Seabrook ($3.500m) / Duncan Keith ($5.538m) Brian Campbell ($7.142m) / Niklas Hjalmarsson ($3.500m) Jordan Hendry ($0.600m) / Nick Boynton ($0.500m) John Scott ($0.512m) GOALTENDERS Marty Turco ($1.300m) /Corey Crawford ($0.800m) CARRY-OVER BONUS PENALTY: $4,157,753 CAPGEEK.COM TOTALS (follow @capgeek on Twitter) (these totals are compiled using the bonus cushion) SALARY CAP: $59,400,000; CAP PAYROLL: $59,716,590; BONUSES: $390,000 CAP SPACE (23-man roster): $73,410
  11. [expletive] HE SHOULD BE GONE!!! It's Jordan, not Jim. He's merely bad, not soul-swallowing. (I know you're joking... roll with it) i wouldn't say jordan hendry's bad, he's a career 3rd pairing guy for sure, but i bet him and boynton will be okay.
  12. has wells really been all that great this year, though? he's been decent.
  13. I feel like a fan of a team 10 years ago said the same thing. That man is going to pitch until he dies. 2001 was rhodes's best season, iirc. plus, dude is really good.
  14. i heard that someone on the score reported today that none of the contracts in question will be vacated.
  15. they just can't wait for tiger to go away and golf to be ruled by a revolving door of uncharismatic random faceless white players again.
  16. i could live with minimal changes to the lineup, but signing lee and webb. shift sori to first and plug colvin in in left and see what happens.
  17. yeah well, corey pavin is a [expletive] idiot.
  18. I agree with PA. Tice is a hell of an o-line coach and I love me some Chester. I praised the Tice hire on here when it happened and wish he didn't go there. I like Cutler more than most non-Bears fans. I'm just really unsure about how Martz's offense is going to work with that o-line and Cutler. i don't think anyone knows what to expect. nothing would surprise me. i like the fact that martz has guts, though, and i think his personalty will be tough for lovie to override on 4th and short.
  19. Then just make it a rule that the highest and lowest annual salaries in a multi-year contract cannot be X percentage in difference. or just make the cap hit count against the team after the player retires.
  20. There would be a long chain of events that would occur that would end up with Dominick Hasek having to unretire becaue he's back under contract with the Hawks. can we retroactively trade belfour years before we actually did?
  21. they aren't voiding the contract, the hawks already won the cup with hossa on the team. it would be admitting that the hawks won the cup by circumventing the cap. this little investigation is just to make sure none of these contracts are tried again.
  22. if a deadlift is the same thing we call it, then that's not very impressive. I knew a junior in high school who did 625, and he couldn't have weighed much over 200. Hell I did 525 and I weighed 180 pounds. in that case i doubt it's what you call it.
  23. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoGayi8KSJk&feature=related
  24. Wrong, and not even remotely close. Ok, Ricky Williams types of crazy. more like kyle farnsworth-type crazy but when they're white and crazy it's more like funny haha he's crazy we love our crazy white cubs right if they brown and crazy they belong in jail.
