QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) Couple weak hits where the defense isnt', followed by a legitimate mistake on a breaking ball, gives the Tribe a 3-0 lead. Stewart is getting ahead of these guys but they're pushing the balls just past the fielders. That offspeed pitch hangs just far too often.

Stewart looks dreadful against a terrible bottom of the order. If Stewart is on the roster next year, he should owe his salary to the Twins pathetic offense.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 08:35 AM) Eric Karros noticed that his bat speed is off. He's reacting late to pitches and not starting his swing soon enough. He must have a severe mental block that's affecting his mechanics. Dunn is done, I truly believe that. The bat speed is gone, as evident by the 100 pop ups to the left side this year.

As I mentioned in the game thread, Viciedo has to go something like 0 for his next 207 to match Dunn's .037 vs LHP

Seen replay a few times, and still can't decide if Roundtree's TD should have counted. Is the rule in CFB that if you get one foot down with possession, it's a TD regardless of what happens after?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 03:59 AM) That was a rough one. Brian Kelly will get them going eventually, he's a good coach. If they give him enough time. As we talked about yesterday, the WR studs in CFB are unreal. Floyd is too good to be playing in college.

Unbelievable...sorry JoeCool

I don't even want to think of how bad Denard would look if he didn't have really good receivers.

What in the hell is Michigan's defense doing? Man-to-man on Floyd, and then not guarding anyone? These teams are very poorly coached.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 03:18 AM) Really a fishing pole ? You're serious ? Like seasons over it's time to go fishing ? If he get's away with that and is back next year it'll be unbelievable. The Dunn decision was bizarre. He deserves every bit of criticism he got on Fox . Too bad I couldn't hear any of it. Ozzie said Dunn makes too much money to get PH for.

So USC was favored by 8.5 tonight...gonna be some unhappy people.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:24 AM) This is what I figured would happen with Denard in a pro offense. Would not have blamed him if he transferred. He's not starting caliber in this pro offense. Just terrible...so sad to see

Cowley's going to love this. Kenny "The Genius" Williams Williams has a cameo on new show on Starz, Boss

Where is the old "Denard runs up to the line like he's going to run it and then passes it to an open receiver"?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:33 AM) I would go read right, read left then go for the throw on 3rd down. Get the kid out in space against a LB or DE and he's gone. Denard should just go pro after this year and start his transition into becoming a WR, RB or CB. All he's doing in this offense is risking getting hurt in the pocket.

It's absolutely ridiculous watching Denard go from an All-American type QB to a below average QB simply because of a stupid offensive scheme.

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:30 AM) I agree on the 2010.. Look at the Yankees this season their DH is their weakest link in their lineup yet somehow they managed to be in 1st place. It's not just how bad our production was at DH, but also with how great Thome was for the Twins when Morneau went down.

QUOTE (Cali @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 02:03 AM) I gotta say I'm a big fan of Josh Lewin. I know in a million years Hawk wont be fired, but 'd love him as the play by play man in Chicago. Yep, he's fantastic. He's no Darren Sutton though.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 01:00 AM) Putting Denard Robinson under center is so f***ing stupid. Agreed, it's sad to see. Michigan would have been so much better with RichRod's offensive strategy this year.

Is Michigan only play 8 guys on defense? Holy cow, Konerko could run for 50 yards on this defense.

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 12:55 AM) You know guys, Rios has improved substantially since he raised his hands. I wish I could post the splits but I don't know when the hand raising happened, but I think he has raised his average from around .200 to .220 over that time and hit about 5 HRs in the past month and a half or so. As of like a week ago, he was something like 9 for his last 52. Not sure how he's been since.

Wow, congrats Rios!!

This team just really excels at fundamentals. Send a message and bench Alexei for a few games!

QUOTE (God Loves The Infantry @ Sep 11, 2011 -> 12:20 AM) Where are you watching? Fox...they were ripping on Morel before
