QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) Teahen's contract led to trading Jackson for Stewart/Frasor (I can't believe how much of a non-factor Frasor has been with the Sox). I still think alot of that is pitching in his hometown. Not everyone can come to their own city and be Derrick Rose. Just my opinion though.

Great Falls looks like they are moving on. Kevan Smith leading the way with 3 RBIs in the game.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 04:19 PM) Didn't watch the game, but what are people's impressions on Reed? His peripherals remain through the roof in the Majors. 6 K, 0 BB in 2.1 innings so far. Not a big sample, but it's exactly what he did in the minors all year. Me and fathom both agreed he is the future closer of this team. Not a doubt in my mind. (no disrespect to Santos who has had an outstanding year)

Shirek has been terrific so far. I was over talking Gilmore predicitng a great playoff series, but it is Short who is shining.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 03:39 PM) By the way...say hi to the 2011 Chargers Special Teams. Meh.. nothing new. Their ST has been terrible for like 2 years now.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:41 PM) Martz needs to stop being so damn cute. He'll be damned if he runs the ball for more than 2 plays.

Wow that was a great play. Sucks for Cutler to have that as his first INT (and dropped numbers for those fantasy people out there.. ).

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:19 PM) I realize, that situation and stated... What does it matter, the season was over about a month ago.. So who cares. I also realize it.. How Ozzie is still talking about "It ain't over till it's over/mathematically eliminated" then obviously he disagrees with you.

Cutler has been much better the second half. Way more consistent with his throws.

I just did not see this comming.

QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:14 PM) Scoreboard watching: Lions beating the Bucs. Said it before.. if Stafford stays healthy, watch out. (and I haven't said that about them since the Barry Sanders days) Other than maybe their DBs, they are solid all around.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:26 PM) You must have an unnatural hate for Cutler. I'm one of the few here that backed him up last season. You must have forgot that. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:27 PM) "Jay Cutler being bailed out by his WR's" is something that almost never happened last year. Absolutely. Hell the O-Line has played very well too IMO. It's the first game though so guys probably aren't playing up to par quite yet.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:24 PM) 2 ways to take that though...if Cutler had played a perfect game so far, he'd have almost put this game in the bag, and he's done a number of really good things so far. He missed that throw, he forced 1 throw to Hester, and he's held the ball too long on a few plays. He's also been bailed out by his WRs. Knox especially. And he's forced 2 throws that should have been picked.

QUOTE (Tex @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:18 PM) why bother? ^^^^^^^^

Cutler had an easy TD throw to Davis and overthrew him. Even though his stats are nice (15/20, 219 yards, 1 TD) but he has not played as well as those stats indicate.

Hopefully Louis injury isn't too serious. He, Williams and Garza have played well. Carimi has looked like a rookie and Webb has been inconsistent.

Abraham is owning Webb. 2 sacks already.

QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 12:44 PM) Great blocking by the fullback in that Forte TD run. And ima credit Johnny Knox on the play before that. That was a bad throw by Cutler, and Knox made a great catch on a ball thrown behind him.

I hope Tillman is a CB coach in the future. That guy is really good at creating turnovers.

FORTE!!!!! PAY THE MAN!!!!!

My god.. Kerry Collins is bad. Yea unless the Colts D goes Ravens early 2000s, their season is already doomed.

Offense is looking better than the defense so far.. (never thought I'd say that)

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 10, 2011 -> 07:16 PM) Flowers has been horrid since A.J. came back. And still has only 3 less homers, 10 less walks and 4 points lower in OPS+ (in 95 PA) than A.J. (430 PA) Half kidding, half not.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 10, 2011 -> 10:51 PM) I despise the Williams sisters. Love Venus' class, but she bores me as a player. Hate Serena's... well everything as a player. (but I love to look at her. )

QUOTE (qwerty @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 05:54 AM) Why do you say this? Is it because of felix's past addiction? If so... that's simply not cool... rather sickening actually... what a low blow. Absolutely. Suck it A.J.
