QUOTE (MEANS @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 05:51 PM) i really don't see why people want Jim to get a ring with those freaking twins, it would be nice for the guy but come on after this season and what the twins did to us plus our horrible rotating DH....no thanks. i hope they get swept. sorry jim Amen! Unless it's a family member of mine, I could really care less if any baseball player wins a WS ring not with the White Sox. For example, if the Sox didn't win in 2005, I would not have cheered for Frank Thomas to win a WS ring with the A's. Isn't that like seeing an ex-girlfriend of yours go on to date Justin Timberlake?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 05:07 PM) DUH. Should I blame a pitcher if he pitches in a game where his team makes 12 errors? f*** no. Clearly you've never played sports or something because you seem to think that sports exist in this vaccuum. Collosal pressure, hard hits, sacks, etc, are going to make it highly less likely that a QB can do anything worth a damn even in situations where he might be able to succeed. He had time to throw on like 10% of his drop-backs. That is f***ing ridiculous and probably has never happened in the history of football. If 9 out of 10 days a week you got hit by a car, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to walk to work normally. How many times had Cutler been sacked up until the time he underthrew what should have been an easy TD? How about before the INT? You're acting like I'm blaiming Cutler for losing the game, which is no way am I doing. There is not one player on offense that showed up to play last night unfortunately. Another point about the terrible coaching last night was even calling for a pass attempt on the play Cutler got knocked out. That should have been a run into the line and go into the halftime happy to be down 3-0.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 05:02 PM) The above is pure crap. No QB could get sacked 9 times and survive or have a good game. NONE, ZERO, ZILCH. So you're saying Cutler deserves absolutely no blame for a poor effort last night? The offensive line was clearly to blame last night in general, but Cutler did nothing to really help out. Midway thru the 2nd half (which is when I posted about him needing a breather), he was so shell-shocked that he couldn't even keep his footing when backing up.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 05:00 PM) Are you f***ing serious? Giants looked like absolute s*** tonight. Outside of there dline manhandling the Bears and I'm not even going to give them credit for that. Did you see how our guys blocked? Oh wait, on most plays they pretty much just whiffed. It was a complete an utter s*** show by the Bears. Giants looked like a horrible team that won because we had a dead dog at QB and the worse oline in the history of football blocking that dead dog during the 2nd half. And the Giants made some good adjustments during the 2nd half, as they started to take advantage of the aggressive Bears front 7. They also stopped calling plays that were going horizontal, and went to more of a vertical offense. The only chance the Bears had last night on offense was the quick pass offense they applied vs the Cowboys.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 04:55 PM) You might be the dumbest poster in the history of posters during any given game thread. Your comments are absolutely ridiculous. Seriously, Todd Collins is the biggest piece of s*** ever and your ignorance in not understanding the impacts of 9 sacks in a game is absolutely ridiculous. Cause I wanted Cutler to get a series off to catch his breath and hopefully snap out of the shock he was in? It was obvioius to everyone watching that the pressure was effecting him physically and mentally. I'm sorry, but Cutler sucked last night. He had a chance to make a big play to Hester, and he underthrew it. His interception was one of the worst reads you'll ever see. And don't throw me in with the other Orton lovers. Just last week, I was telling people how stupid the Cutler vs Orton debate is.

An individual who really failed us in the clutch vs the Twins was Konerko. I believe there were 5 instances in the 9th inning or later vs Twins where he failed in a crucial situation with numerous runners on.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 05:15 AM) Was that the most random, unimaginable, hilarious intro to a television show ever? I freakin' love Steve. He looked like he gained 40 pounds also

Amazing episode tonight, easily the best of the series so far in my opinion. Kenny entering to Hulk Hogan's Real American theme was one of the greater moments in TV history.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 04:14 AM) I would add Olsen to the Oline but there is nothing receivers, QBs or RBs can do if your oline plays like this. Forte could have broken at least one tackle tonight, and Hester not being able to beat a guy one-on-one earlier in the game prevented a big play.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 04:12 AM) Game officially over. Every member of the offense should give their paychecks back for this game. fixed

We need to draw like 5 roughing the punters in a row. Bears have like 5 first downs tonight?

Does Matt Forte ever drag a tackler or get tackled going forward? We needed him to pick up the first down on that rush.

There we go!

Giants are outcoaching the Bears tonight. Making all the right calls.

Ugh, can't buy a break on defense tonight!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 03:50 AM) Also, it will be ignored because of the roughing the passer, but Collins first int on that drive is exactly why its generally not a good idea to throw when you know you are going to get hit. Bears really should go to Wildcat formation and just hope for a fluke play.

Terrible pass, but G-reg stopped on the route...again!

How scared are you right now if you're Todd Collins' wife?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 02:46 AM) This is a pretty good analogy, because Cutler was raped in a football sense. I'm pretty sure that Tuck penetrated him on one of those sacks.

I used this line early in the Cowboys game, and the offense turned it around. Maybe it will work again: this looks like a college offense facing a pro defense.

Urlacher with a HORRIBLE defensive series.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 02:28 AM) Peppers should play PF while Boozer is out. He was pretty decent at UNC. Very effective on the alley-oop

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 02:27 AM) I wonder if he watches the Hills and is upset at Cutler for getting into something he couldn't. That's not true, cause anyone that watches the Hills knows that anyone can "get into" Kristin Cav

I replayed that 2nd down pass quickly, and Lovie should have challenged the spot.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 03:23 AM) Using Olsen on running plays is incredibly stupid, he didn't block anyone on that play in part because he got bumped by his own teammate and fell. Agreed, and not only that, it was so tight he had no prayer of getting momentum going forward in order to block.
