QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 10, 2016 -> 01:33 PM) Not to start this up again, but for the record, Dale Tallon signed Marian Hossa. He signed him because of McDonough. He wanted to keep Havlat because of his loyalty towards his guys. Hawks brass (mostly the Bowmans) wanted Hossa.

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 9, 2016 -> 08:55 PM) Keith and Seabrook were drafted by Mike Smith. And Havlat was Tallon's guy, not Hossa.

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Feb 9, 2016 -> 12:57 PM) Lawrie and Latos. The all-asshole team. Funny thing is, I can easily see those two being the closest come season's end.

OT: But Crosby is playing inhuman once again. Dude has 34 points in his last 21 games (21 of those in his last 11... 7 game goal streak). He's still 23 points behind Kane (probably unlikely), but he has 30 games left. Unreal.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 04:05 PM) Read a story today that he hasn't spent a penny of his paychecks from playing football. He's saved it all instead, nearly 50 million. Yep. Didn't spend a dime of his playing money. Pretty much just lived off his endorsements money. The dude is smarter than people portray him as... and he's set.

Really wish we would have seen Yulieski in his prime. Dude would of been a bonefide star here a few years ago if he defected earlier. Had one of the most impressive WBC I've ever seen. Reminds me of what people said about the Hernandez brothers. Livan was younger and really good, but El Duque was actually the stud of the two. Just got here when he was entering the twilight of his prime.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 04:37 PM) Smith tore that knee out pretty bad, I dont like taking him at that pick to be honest. I think he's going to take a ton of rehab for the ACL and LCL and possible nerve damage. Yea not a chance the Bears redshirt another first round pick. If Smith is there in the second round, fine.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 8, 2016 -> 03:03 PM) Committed Indians 31 mins · The Winnipeg Jets have agreed with Dustin Byfuglien on a five-year contract extension with an AAV of $7.6 million! Looks like Ladd is probably gone then.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Feb 7, 2016 -> 11:10 PM) Broncos already said they're going to franchise him. As they should. I'm good with Jackson and/or Trevathan though.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Feb 7, 2016 -> 10:44 PM) Von Miller won that game for the Broncos lol He's a FA also.

The gif of the night.

I still can't believe Cam didn't dive for that fumble. Just backed out like he gave up or just didn't want to get hurt.

Thank you for netting me $200 Broncos.

So apparently Marshawn Lynch is retiring..

So the MVP is going to a defensive player right? C.J. Anderson might be the only offensive player on either side who has a case.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 01:16 PM) That might be my favorite Blackhawks promotional video ever. The girl scout cookies one is up there, too. For me, nothing beats the Keith video last year. Hit close to heart. QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 3, 2016 -> 01:42 PM) I agree. I love how the kid instantly recognized Teuvo over Shaw. Usually it's the other way around. He was enamored with him. Teuvo has gotten pretty popular in Chicago.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Feb 2, 2016 -> 02:50 PM) Strong as an ox. Remember he started 08 off the bench and just took off. The thing I do remember was he has not really good with the glove That shoulder injury really affected him mentally defensively going forward. He was a pretty good defensive RF with the DBacks. (minors and cup of coffee) Then he tore his labrum and pretty much stopped diving or running into walls and turned into Avi on the field. Luckily it never affected his hitting. He was always a very good hitter.

Justin Tuck retires. 11 seasons, 2x Super Bowl champion.

Makes Avi coming back so quickly with the same injury even more impressive, even if he's not that good.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 1, 2016 -> 11:50 AM) If Phil is reporting it, we might as well close this thread. Don't mind at all. Not a fan of Ethier.

The site Reddit put this up.

By far the best ASG in years.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 31, 2016 -> 04:28 PM) The two best players in Detroit Lions history retired super early with no real playoff success. Unbelievable really. Megatron was fun to watch.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 08:49 AM) Sox will go no more than 3..
