QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Dec 20, 2010 -> 11:18 PM) He and Steve Young decided to tear apart Cutlers performance based on footwork. If he could only learn how to use his feet he might good like Trent I guess. LMAO They didn't tear it apart, but it's a valid criticism. Hell, I've seen youuuuu guys criticize him all season long wishing he would stop throwing off of his back foot amongst other things. Nothing Steve or Trent said are untrue. But I understand, most of you guys are riding a high right now and don't want to hear it. Eventually, if Cutler wants to be great, he's going to have to work on that.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Dec 20, 2010 -> 11:01 PM) What was the best part of this game? Blowing out the Vikings again, clinching the division and playoffs, Hester breaking the record, or getting rid of Favre once and for all? Best part is Bears fans still not giving credit to Lubbie. They don't deserve him.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Dec 20, 2010 -> 05:27 PM) I used to get nothing but that, then looked at the nutrition facts on their website. Not pretty I was always an Italian Nightclub type of guy.

Don't be mad that the RoboCop, Robo Kreps led his team to victory

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 20, 2010 -> 11:48 AM) Jabari PArker from Simeon, just a soph, has an offer from Duke He'll end up there or Kentucky.

Ordered the PPV last night. It was pretty decent. My power went out during the TLC match for about 40 minutes. It came back on when Cena ran his shoulder into a chair and then completely dominated Wade Barrett. If there ever was a burial, it was last night. The chair thing was stupid though considering Barrett had been covered. The FU on the chairs had to hurt though. So where do they go with Barrett now after they made Super Ninja Samarai Level Infinity beat him last night? That whole storyline served no purpose whatsoever.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 20, 2010 -> 04:53 PM) Super hyped for tonight. I'm gonna max on two Jimmy John's gargatuans and a truck load of Cheeze-its. So if you don't see me for a while it's because I had a massive heart attack Just had my first gargantuan last week. It was epic!

Trade him at the deadline if you can end up getting a team to overpay and you're out of it. Trade him next offseason if he doesn't resign an extension.

Heat will be fine. When Miller comes back I'd imagine their rotation will be: PG-Wade SG-Miller SF-LeBron PF-Bosh C-Ilgauskas Bench: Arroyo(who has played decently) James Jones Erik Dampier Howard You dont' need more than that in the playoffs. I'm sure the Heat are going to start blowing out teams other than Boston. Sad thing is, the playoffs may come down to who's the most healthiest team in the East. And that very well may be Miami. Too bad their fans will have no idea since they don't care about them.

Can't say I'm not excited. KennyGM is my favorite GM in any sport. I'm glad he's the GM for my favorite baseball team.

Crain just because Jenks drove me up the wall already. Change is good sometimes. I wish Jenks the best though. He was a good guy.

Dumb move especially considering they're going to suck more now too. Maybe he thinks they'll stink so much, they'll ask him to start again.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 14, 2010 -> 10:22 PM) Melo isn't going to the Nets!! The biggest deal here is Terrence Williams getting away from Avery Johnson. He's awesome. Whether he resigns or not is his decision, but I think he is. Nets are determined to make it happen, their future be damned.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 08:45 PM) This? YES! God that looks ugly.

I'm surprised no one is talking about the three way trade expected to go down on Wednesday or Thursday. Lakers get: Joe Smith Houston gets: Terrance Williams New Jersey gets: Sasha Vujajic 1st Rounder from Houston 1st rounder from LA(IIRC) Sets them up really good for a Melo deal.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 14, 2010 -> 06:17 PM) Stay classy. San Diego. Anyway, I actually agree with Jordan4Life, not in those vulgar terms, but I also understand Cliff Lee feels he has a keeper and was willing to compromise. Now if the whole decision was up to his wife, then my opinion differs.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 11:23 PM) Clay is way better than Lackey. at staying healthy.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 11:12 PM) Ok, so what will it take for the Sox to fight against the Sawks or Phils? Honestly a good bullpen. I think the Sox have the best balance of the two teams. Philly has awesome starting pitching(not just great), but their bullpen is not better than ours and neither is their offense. Boston has a great offensive team now even without Beltre. Their starting pitching is questionable as well as their bullpen. I like Lackey alot still along with Lester. Beckett is a question mark. I'm not yet sold on Clay and Dice K is Bust K to me. The Sox just need to solidify their bullpens and I think they can compete. Also, Carlos Quentin will also have to improve. From there, I think the Sox have a damn good chance.

It's up on mlb.com and phillies.com. I don't like Philly's offense though. Now we know why they want a Carlos Quentin.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) My wife and I have toyed with the idea of moving to Central Florida for about 9 months now. Our biggest hold back was my wife's family, we didnt want to "offend" her mother by "turning out back" on Iowa and "deserting" the family. Well, this morning my wife "jokingly" said "I may have to move somewhere warm." To our surprise, her mom said that sounded great, as long as we moved somewhere that's warm all year so they can come during the winter! The shackles are off! Florida, here we come! I'm jealous. I'm almost in the same situation, except my woman's mom puts ideas in her head that I'm going to leave her and she's not going to have any family near her at all. So my girlfriend believes it and refuses to entertain the idea of moving anywhere outside of the city. It really really really really sucks. I've been trying to convince her for about 6 months to move to Los Angeles/Anaheim area, Miami/Fort Lauderdale, or even San Diego to which the answer is always no. And the worse thing is, I think I get a case of seasonal depression from this stuff.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 08:00 AM) So has anyone ever had a girl break up with their boyfriend FOR you? Cuz i'm pretty sure that just happened last night and I'm not quite sure how to handle that. Kinda intimidating and a lot of pressure to be honest. Yes, but I think for myself, I put pressure on myself to be everything she wants when in reality, that backfires. At least that was the 2nd time. If I had just been myself it would've worked out. The first time, it was good, but I was myself too much, but I was young. I didn't care, I was very insensitive.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 06:58 AM) I think you have to keep your main recruiting base in Illinois, but building new ties to new places can never hurt. You gotta aim to get the best talent you can even if that means going out of state. That 2005 team had its main base from Illinois but solid non-Illinois players in Deron, Jack Ingram (though he transferred) and Nick Smith. Exactly. The only "real" miss on those was Shannon of those guys. Good kid from a school that just gave Illinois Dee Brown. Rose's shady recruiting and eligibility issues were a huge issue with him and Illinois. He was just never going to give Weber and Co. a legit chance, especially with his brother running point wanting all kids of s*** for a commitment. Davis is also a suspicious story. Truly whenever anyone commits to Kentucky I get curious. The big misses were Julian Wright, Jon Scheyer and Shannon over Weber's time. All three smart kids from non-CPS schools whose recruitment were legit. I agree about Rose, but everyone else were huge misses. Also Iman Shumpert to that list with Sherron collins. I thought Davis' school is private, just not really known at all. Either way, a Calipari recruit will always be fishy. And the point will always remain, go whereever you need to get the players you need. If Illinois had no pipeline in Illinois, but were consistently bringing in great recruits, I'd be happy with that.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 05:38 PM) *ahem* *points at avy* I think the big deal is that he did it right there on the field. That & it just looked silly. That's something you can do before the game, or in the locker room perhaps. As a Cowboys fan, I'm not upset. I laughed at it. It's more like he could of chosen a better time/place to do that. I'm a Cowboys fan as well and I do think it looked a little silly, but nothing I would be outraged by. And most players do it anyway. I remember tons of athletes on MTV Cribs having signed jerseys of other players. Choice says he did it for his nephew which is even more ultra cool.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 13, 2010 -> 07:42 PM) They still had baggy tops back then, nothing like the tight Nike ones now. However UM started the black sock look in College bball, and people hated on that pretty hard. Always loved the black sock look. Looked fantastic and still does. In fact, I hate the white sock with black shoes look. Now that looks awful. I digress. The new fad nowadays looks pretty awful. The worse is the patterns on the trim of each uniform having like three different colors. It's hard to describe without a picture, but it looks ridiculously ugly.
