  1. one thing i like about martz is that he has guts, and is not just a tub o guts, even though he's one of those, too.
  2. I'm sure a team like that would win a lot of games, just not as many as a team that has been optimizing its roster around LeBron for 5 years. oh i can't wait for lebron to be a bull.
  3. me, too. oddly enough.
  4. you have to include the last 2 weeks when you talk about the season. like i said, rodgers has the deepest corps of wrs in the nfl. i'm not saying he's not an elite qb, he definitely is, but he's blessed with some players. he's also a guy who hangs onto the ball a long time. no one is questioning the idea that cutler is a risk-taker, just the idea that he's not a good enough decision-maker to be an elite qb.
  5. rose can go anywhere on the court that he wants to, i don't see how you can say that's a bad thing.
  6. haha, like lebron is going to have trouble getting into the lane on a team with derrick rose on it. the bulls can go get 3 point shooter if they need to, they don't cost much. lebron doesn't need really anyone to do what he does, he can do it anywhere. the question is: would he prefer playing on a team with more talent?
  7. Varejao and probably Williams are more valuable than Rose would be on a team with LeBron. i have no idea how you can say this. noah is better than verajao and williams is nowhere near rose, unless you're saying lebron prefers playing with inferior players.
  8. like i said, i don't know how you can judge his decision-making when he has no time to throw and his receivers are short and dumb. did cutler actually just throw the ball right to a defender on purpose or did the reciver break the exact opposite way he was supposed to, lose interest in running the route, or was he in the process of blocking because he thought they called a run? this is totally ignoring the fact that he had no time to throw. i think cutler did amazingly well considering the circumstances. he was the bears last year. it's hard to imagine rodgers doing any better with the bears and i'm absolutely sure rivers would be so emotionally rattled by the experience that he might not ever shotput another football again, he'd give up the game.
  9. yeah, wrong. there are quite a few very accurate and smart college qbs out there selling insurance right now. pro scouts look for guys with arm strength and mobility just as much as anything else, and cutler wasn't taken where he was taken because it was perceived that he could simply throw a ball through a brick wall, he was taken because he could throw it through a bulletproof window in the brick wall. rodgers has the deepest receiver corps in the nfl. sure, he has a great arm, not as great as cutler's, probably not even as accurate, but he has receivers that know where to run to and don't just make up their own routes half through them. how many int's did knox himself cost cutler this year? hester? those guys simply weren't big enough or good enough to make the amount of route mistakes they made last year. hopefully, knox figures it out because he could be a good one. the green bay receivers were good enough to make up for the line early in the year and rivers never had line issues and his recievers are [expletive] yetis that run their routes without improvising unless they're telepathic. i just don't know how you have enough info to judge this. the receivers and the line were terrible, the pass blocking sucked and the receivers were operating under their own rules.
  10. I would not be surprised if it happened, and therefore can't consider it a minor miracle. yeah, i don't know why it's such a huge stretch to think that cutler is in their league in terms of talent level. i think he's more than capable of putting up those type of numbers. he's got a better arm than either of them and moves just as well as rodgers. it's said that he's smart, so let's see what he can do if we protect him and he plays in a more advanced system.
  11. mike aller is having a heart attack. but chicago has to be so much more attractive than any of those other places. NY is a marked step back, NJ more so. chicago has rose and a big man that does all the dirty work and requires exactly zero touches.
  12. If it's going to be Rogers then I would assume there is a deadline to get things done well before the Super Bowl. if they're really desperate enough to hire some guy off the street like rogers, al saunders is available.
  13. if it's going to be rogers then i'd rather jusr wait until after the super bowl.
  14. ah, i see.
  15. For the record, the answer is "probably not" now it is, please no buzzkill. there will be plenty of time to cut my nipples off when the hawks lose in the playoffs. tonight is for lovers.
  16. everything is fine, good night.
  17. [expletive] off, nabokov!!!!!
  18. damn, poor shot selection
  19. [expletive] off, nabokov
  20. [expletive] off nabokov
  21. i was pissed about coughing up a lead, real pissed.
  22. please don't bring your routine into this thread right now the situation calls for it. we look like we forgot how to play hockey. at least wait until after the game The game you already conceded before the period began? that's true, le's be consistent.
  23. please don't bring your routine into this thread right now the situation calls for it. we look like we forgot how to play hockey.
