Was suppose to drive to Southern Illinois today. Weather had other plans. Hope to leave tomorrow morning.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 10:35 PM) A designed QB draw where the QB is tackled behind the line of scrimmage is not a sack. Gotcha. Dumb rule though.

Sweet. Who was that that couldn't pick it up. He could of ran for awhile, it seems.

In the 3rd quarter, when the Packers tried the QB draw and Harris tackled Rodgers in the backfield, wasn't that a sack? Just before their FG. They didn't count it as one.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 10:30 PM) They've shown no IQ at all. Tillman and Peterson's penalties (Tillman in OT and Peterson tonight) have been inexcusable. When you add to that Tillman's blown read at the end against Atlanta, this year will be remembered more for just stupid decisions by the players and coaches. I don't think that was Tillman's screw up in Atlanta. Wasn't it Graham? I miss Ayanbadejo more than I thought I would.

WTF IS THAT KICK??? ARE YOU SERIOUS?????

QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 10:14 PM) Besides 2 games, Orton has been pretty bad all season long, well 2 games and one drive vs Atlanta. I don't agree with that. He was VERY good for 2 games and that drive, average for a few games, than bad for other few.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 10:10 PM) Boo this f***er off the field. He has no vision at all. Which is odd cuz he showed he did before he got hurt. He would look off safeties all game long. I'm not a Rex fan, but screw it, put him in.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 09:54 PM) The 1-2 yard run on first down doesn't do it for you? If we have tried to run the ball off tackle and not up the middle, I missed it.

I am far from a football expert, but if you blitz all your LBs, like we just did on 3rd down, why not have the CB's up on the WR to take away that quick pass?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 09:32 PM) He's worse than bad. You can tell he was waiting all night to say that Blagojevich joke. Either that or he thought of it at halftime and wanted to use it right away. Kornheiser is bad, embarassing, a joke, uninformative, etc....Serves no purpose. That block in the back on Jamar was weak. The guy made the tackle first. You can probably call block in the backs on every kick or punt.

3rd and 3 and we are running WR patterns 15 yards down field. How about a slant or some hooks or curls?

Kevin Payne needs to learn how to tackle and not go for the hit everytime.

We have the worst field surface in the NFL. When you go to games, you really see how bad it is. Time to go artificial.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 05:11 PM) For you Southern Illinois fans... I just found out one of your basketball signees, Drew Barham, goes to my old high school. From what I've heard, he's the best player to come out of my high school in a long time, and while we have never been a powerhouse or anything, my high school is always pretty good. Been to the state championship 3 of the last 7 years, but lost every time - twice to Brendan Wright's high school team. That said, I don't know too much about him... Have yall heard anything good? What kind of player do you see him being? I know he is 6'6 and can drain from outside.

Need 5 points from Bears defense and I win $400. Freaking D'Angelo Williams

That was NOT a good first half for me. Was up 30 going into this game and now Williams has him making an improbable come back. I have Steve Smith so that one play that was overturned killed me. Have Bears defense tomorrow no matter what.

Our work fridge is so nasty that I wouldn't eat anything out of it.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Dec 21, 2008 -> 04:55 PM) Incorrect. De La Salle Institute is 4A. My mistake. YOu are correct. I was lumping them in with Hales and the smaller Chicago schools for no reason.

With all the turnovers and mistakes, Atlanta HAS to win this game.

Mark Kotsay's wife > All Anna Benson is soooo overrated.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 21, 2008 -> 03:57 PM) Crap, that post was worded horribly. Meant to imply that I think De La Salle and Manual will be in the title game if they are both in 2A. Depends on the pairings in Peoria. They could face in the semis which would be a shame since they should be in the title game. Manual is undefeated, beat Lawndale, and isn't seeded at Pontiac. That is how good that tournament is this year.

Ugh, Wanna watch Atlanta and Minnesota, but Stockton and Baldinger. Yuck.

I seriously think Detroit would beat St. Louis. Actually, maybe it would be a tie.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 21, 2008 -> 01:32 PM) Thank you Drew Brees for being a complete no-show against the worst team in football and most likely costing me $1K. 310 and 2 TDs so far isn't bad.
