QUOTE (lostfan @ Dec 12, 2011 -> 05:20 AM) It wasn't... it was like the fumble was his way of compensating for that not being called incomplete. I guess I'm the only one that thought Denver's TD should have been reviewed for Tebow being past the line of scrimmage.

I actually thought Homeland was mediocre tonight, but finale looks great. Kinda bummed they seem to give so much away in the preview.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 12, 2011 -> 02:32 AM) I'm happy they're confident, we haven't forgotten that they had the best record in the NBA last year, we also haven't forgotten that they lost in the ECF, improvements are needed. or that the Heat are likely going to have a much better roster

Rod should get destroyed in the press for going to the prevent

I can't even imagine how upset I would be if the Sox had terrible important losses like this.

Barber should have never been out there. You could see him defeated on the sidelines at end of regulation

He was past the line of scrimmage

Gould must be training with Braun

Peppers set up that TD by making a fantastic play to stop Tebow on 2nd down

Pull him!

Hanie continues to suck

Some rumors out there that Sox might had been close to trading Quentin to the Blue Jays. Wouldn't shock me at all if it was for Drabek.

I really hope Braun is innocent

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Dec 11, 2011 -> 06:36 PM) This would have been a disaster. Rasmus has a good start on Rios v2.0 status, IMO, and will likely soon be regarded as AA's biggest screw-up. Yes, J4L, they ALL make mistakes. Toronto didn't give up much to get Rasmus.

This sucks. He was one of the more enjoyable guys to watch. The NL Central is going to suck

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 05:50 PM) I would send Alexei to the Braves for Beachy and Minor. Braves aren't going to trade either guy likely with all the health concerns for their starting pitching.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 04:23 PM) I am predicting James Shields to the Reds for Yonder and Bray There'd have to be a lot more included, namely Grandal

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 06:18 PM) We entered the Winter meetings largely needing to trade Danks, Floyd, Thornton and Quentin. We accomplished none of this. Yep, and there seems to be a lot of young arms available now that executives didn't think would be (Cahill, Niese, etc). Also, I thought it was a huge fail for the organization when very solid relievers are signing cheaper deals than what we foolishly gave Frasor.

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 03:24 PM) IMO KW, was looking to try an hit a HR.. and ended up Striking out. I don't fault him for that trade.... If Peavy was healthy, wins 17-20 a year.. he looks like a genius. That's so not necessarily true. Peavy outside of San Diego as a big risk, and a lot of people had concerns.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 04:57 AM) Yeah, but I don't think he was playing Rios just to piss off Kenny. I truly believe former players like Ozzie think in the world order of things you play the guys making the huge money. I'm not sure why he finally sat down Dunn for the most part. Joe Cowley all but said he did. Quite convenient for you to decide now is the time to question if what Cowley is saying is accurate. Greg, it still baffles me that you can support a manager that flat out quit on his team.

So Chris Paul is going to refuse to play for the Hornets, and there's some speculation the Union will try to get David Stern fired (according to rotoworld)

QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 04:52 AM) Like Rios? Ozzie pretty much backed my position on Rios that got me ripped on here last year. KW asked Ozzie "why are you playing Rios when u got DeAza?" And Ozzie said, "Why did u sign Rios to begin with?" I think Ozzie played him because he earns a zillion bucks and is on the roster. That's what you do. Maybe that's the one flaw in having a former rich player be a manager. They do think like players more than front office personnel. Checkmate...instead of doing what was the right thing for the team, Ozzie tried to prove a point instead.

Am I the only person who thinks it's bogus that the Honey Badger is one of the five finalists for the Heisman? When is the last time a Heisman finalist was suspended a game during the season due to drug use?

Truth be told, I'm not a fan of Paul's. With that said, I think this trade doesn't hurt the integrity of the game nearly as much as the Gasol one did.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 03:15 AM) Fathom, The NBA is the crappy owner here. See the problem, if the Hornets lose everyone really has lost. Thats why its very odd that Hornets are even involved in any trade discussions. The #1 priority for the NBA should be to find a new owner for Hornets and let the new owner do what he wants. Thing is, aren't the Hornets better off by adding three above average players in Scola/Odom/Martin? I doubt Paul's body will hold up during this 66 game sprint.
