  1. QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Nov 5, 2009 -> 10:01 AM) Didn't know where to put this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9unlpJMAVHA Last week in the OHL some kid was laid out. Kid who got hit sent to hospital in critical condition. Fractured skull, concussion, bleeding etc...Apparently he's stable but still not out of the woods. Hate to see stuff like that happen but the OHL suspended the kid who hit him for the rest of the year and playoffs. It sucks seeing stuff like this, but this is not a suspendable offense in my opinion. The cleanliness of the hit is debatable. It doesn't appear that the Checkor was lining up the Checkee specifically so its difficult to say if this warrants a charging penalty. However, he was absolutely flying going around the net and I'm guessing (not knowing the context of the game) that he may have been looking for some big contact, judging by the speed he was going. Its unfortunate, but this is hockey and sometimes people can get severely hurt. . . anyone who has played the game knows the risks they are taking. Still, f*** . . . what a vicious hit and I hope that kid is alright.
  2. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:38 PM) you are still pissed Havlat is gone... Hater. LOL, I loved Marty... but the Hawks ABSOLUTELY made the right move. Hossa = Havlat + defense - injuries (yes I know he's injured right now).
  3. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 06:23 PM) I'd trade him 10 times before I traded Steeger. Andrew Ladd is a completely interchangeable piece on this team, Steeger has some special abilities... I agree with you 100%
  4. it is absolutely ridiculous that the bears cant score in goal line situations. the play action pass to the TE doesn't work when you cannot run the ball.
  5. Jay Cutler is a f***ing football player. I love him. f*** Kyle Orton. That is all.
  6. QUOTE (SockMe @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 10:54 AM) The pre-season got me kind of excited, ill go 50-32 I don't think the Bulls miss Ben Gordon much, Loul drives us crazy, and Salmons continues his impressive play. 48 wins.
  7. The turning point of this game was losing the coin flip.
  8. Shanahan, Holmgren, Chuckie, Cowher I'd take any of them.
  9. How was this team so unprepared to play today? I love the 3 yard dump off to Clark... great call down 31
  10. This has been such a disaster today. . . Ced Benson has 100+ in the first half.
  11. Here is hoping that Lovie Smith gets fired after the end of another 7-9 season next year (I'd say the end of this year but the McCaskey's won't pay him to not coach 2 years).
  12. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 14, 2009 -> 08:05 AM) Actually I would even go as far to say that up to this point Garcia has been the best QB to work with T.O. T.O. may have been completely ignorant, mean, and just an asshole to Garcia about possibly being gay, but Garcia recognized the talent and forced the ball to T.O. every opportunity he got. T.O. put up insane numbers with Garcia, anyone remember him catching 20 on the Bears? On Jerry Rice Day at Candlestick nonetheless. That was Cade McNown's second to last game as a Bear, the only silver lining.
  13. In my opinion, if the decision to trade for TO hinges on taking away snaps from Knox or Bennett... it should be a no-brainer. I like both players, but I don't believe either of them have a pro bowl ceiling at the WR position. Furthermore, a team should be able to bring players along without a ton of in-game snaps, if they can't its probably more of a indictment on the coaching staff than anything else. This is not to say that there aren't other concerns about bringing in TO, but its probably not worth the time or effort because Angelo is not going to pull the trigger on this kind of deal. Cutler was a no-brainer, bold, but an easy decision nonetheless. This type of controversial, risky move doesn't fit Angelo's MO.
  14. B&B took it easy on that guy. If he would have been a caller, they would have died laughing at his expense.
  15. saw that the seahawks cut Brian Russell, hes older but i wouldn't mind if the bears kicked the tires on him.
  16. QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 08:32 PM) Anyone catch Garcia's mug on his updated photo? He looks like the Venezuelan version of Kenny FKN Powers! post please.
  17. QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 08:15 PM) I bet Herm's wife is a lucky lady. I disagree... Herm is so good at massaging that he never even bothers with her.
  18. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2009 -> 06:33 PM) I can make the argument against you pretty easily; look at the last couple superbowl winners, other than the Colts. You had the Steelers in there twice and the Giants once. Those teams got there on the strength of their ground game. They had QB's who could make plays, but their QB's didn't carry them. Going back further you hit the Bucs and the Ravens, similarly; running teams, average QB, amazing defenses. On the other hand, you've got the Colts and the Pats, led by HOF QB's, but even then, they had serious defensive and running help in some of those years (the Colts basically beat the Bears on the ground, Corey Dillon did some real damage for NE when he was there, and then there was the NE defense). We'll get back to this a little later. I need a little time to do some research. QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Aug 15, 2009 -> 06:52 PM) Tampa won with Brad Johnson as their QB, so thats two superbowl teams that have won in recent history with a game manager QB. Really Big Ben isnt that great of a QB either, his one strong point is he can scramble and hard to take down. I'm not sure you can call Brad Johnson circa 03 a game manager. The Bucs threw the ball approx 60% of the time! I'm willing to listen to what the definition of a game manager is, but I don't know how throwing the ball that much would qualify a player as someone who is asked not to make mistakes.
  19. QUOTE (Nokona @ Aug 15, 2009 -> 06:27 PM) Season's Over LOL, no... but Jay does not look very good thus far (3 preseason drives).
  20. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2009 -> 05:54 PM) You put Orton on a team like Minnesota, where there's a star running back and a run-killing defense, and you've got a potentially really solid fit. Esp. if you can come up with a possession WR. Denver doesnt' have either of those. You make a good argument, and I think Orton would be a good fit for the Vikings. However, in the playoffs the teams with the super running games seemingly always do worse than those teams with good passing attacks. I think there comes a time in every season when you need your quarterback to win a game for you. I don't know if I would trust Orton to do that for a contending team. Still, I think he has a place in the league.
