QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 04:39 PM) USC is gonna win, lets say 32-21 ^ Ur winning numbers right there folks

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 07:54 PM) And you keep sniffing those RCA Dome fumes. Hope that isnt a reference to me being a colts fan, I dislike the colts.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) I could see them making an announcement at Soldier Field and the crowd going crazy, thus, giving the Bears a new-found thrust into the Super Bowl. Keep dreaming

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 05:54 PM) For who? The dismantling of Notre Dame and Oregon makes me think that people are underrating texas and overrating USC. Wait overrating USC, how many championships have they had in recent years?

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jan 3, 2006 -> 03:52 PM) It appears Scott and I are on the same page once again. Scott's newest mock LINK Im bound and determined that Leinart doesnt go to New Orleans, Id like to see him with the Jets even though they have Pennington or maybe drop down to the Raiders, Jay Cutler is a player I thought would surprise alot of people from the beginning of the season he could be a steal for the dolphins at pick 7. I also dont see vernon davis going to the niners, they have more important needs than a tight end.

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 06:24 PM) And we'd have no trade chips left to acquire bullpen help. FA

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 05:58 PM) I didn't know this, but Uribe and Tejada are both from the same hometown Bani, Dominican Republic. Here are their stats at 25 which are very similar: Tejada - 622 AB, 31 HR, 113 RBI, .267 AVG, .326 OBP, .476 SLG Uribe - 502 AB, 23 HR, 74 RBI, .283 AVG, .327 OBP, .506 SLG Is Uribe just a few years away, or was 2004 his ceiling? You cant compare them at a certain age, Uribes numbers didnt get better the next year and Tejada continues to improve, besides he was with Oakland that year, and you cant say that they have the greatest hitting team out there. I would get rid of Uribe in a heartbeat, Tejada had a 971 fielding % this past year compared to Uribes 977, thats not a big dropoff, and if were losing Contreras who was a good pitcher towards the end of the season, and adding Mccarthy into the mix who is still young he is going to need lots of run support, Tejada can provide that.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jan 4, 2006 -> 04:29 PM) I think Texas may win.....despite Reggie Bush going crazy. This may be a dud, but watch this game, because you'll have a story to tell your kids and grandkids if it isn't a dud. Story? Meh idk, USC is gonna win, lets say 32-21 Also I believe I said the Penn St game would be the best somewhere in this thread if I recall

Which pitcher are you? You're Jon Garland. You're inconsistent, but you've got lots of talent. Killer slider, dude.

Mortons

Have to wonder now if the Astros may look into dealing Willy T to the Sox now that they have three set outfielders that is if Lane plays center, would make some sense because then they would also get another pitcher and all of a sudden Astros might be a team to beat in the NL.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 3, 2006 -> 03:36 PM) It's close. Hand over the yard line? Thats a hard angle to judge it on, those calls are tough to make, you really have to have a good view of the situation to see if he crossed the line or not.

QUOTE(ilsox7 @ Jan 3, 2006 -> 01:10 AM) The difference is the UM-Nebraska game involved two teams that suck. That WVU-Georgia game was two good games going at each other. Best game, with ease, thus far. And WVU opened a lot of eyes, including mine. I knew WVU would win theyve had a good offense all year, and has alot of speed to match up with Georgia, and I really am not a big fan of shockley

Favre will be back.

QUOTE(Random @ Jan 2, 2006 -> 09:43 PM) I will start off with a blonde joke >>> Football FINALLY makes sense.......... >>> >>> A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game. They had >>> great seats right behind their team's bench. After the game, he asked >>> her how she liked the experience. >>> >>> "Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and >>> all the big muscles, but I just couldn't understand why they were >>> killing each other over 25 cents." >>> >>> Dumbfounded, her date asked, "What do you mean?" >>> >>> "Well, at the beginning of the game they flipped a coin, one team got it >>> and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was: 'Get the >>> quarterback! Get the quarterback!' I'm like.......Helloooooo? It's >>> only 25 cents!!!! thats a good one Im going to use this

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jan 3, 2006 -> 12:59 AM) Not sure if anybody was watching it, but that Sugar Bowl was by far the best bowl game of the season. WVU jumps out 28-0, Georgia comes all the way back to get it to 31-28, WVU and Georgia trade td's to get it to 38-35. Then, with 2 min left, around midfiled, WVU with the all time balls call, going for the FAKE PUNT out of some crazy formation, and it works to ice the game. Huge win for West Virginia and the Big East over a really good Georgia team in basically a road game. That freshman duo of QB Pat White and the RB Slanton are going to terrorize their league the next few years. As for Notre Dame.....the luck of the Irish is really the only reason they stayed within 14. I despise tOSU and wanted to see the Irish win, but Weis clearly needs to get better players into South Bend (which he is doing, check recruiting rankings), because they were just out talented today. Great game, although I think I liked Michigan and Nebraska a little better, your right WVU will be a force in the league the next couple years, Im really looking forward to the florida st and penn st game, something tells me that will be the best one yet. I like both so i really dont have a team to root for but I guess ill take florida st.

QUOTE(ilsox7 @ Jan 3, 2006 -> 12:51 AM) I think the reason most folks, including myself, think ND was overrated is b/c they simply did not beat anyone good. Their biggest accomplishment this season was arguably taking USC to the wire. That game came after the bye week, giving Charlie plenty of time to plan. By that logic, Fresno would also get a feather or two in their cap for giving USC a game. Outside of the USC game, ND lost to a s***ty MSU team and a very good tOSU team. Their best win came against a mediocre Michigan team. I give credit to both ND and Charlie as they were better than most expected and made great strides in the program. That said, I never viewed them as a top 5 team and I think tonight it was proven they were not a top 5 team. ^ Heres my whole idea The one problem with ND is they really dont have a conference which limits which teams they can play, they will throw any team at them who just happens to need a game that week. If ND was in the big ten or any other conference I could give them consideration for a top 5 bid, to me I think you need to win your division and beat good teams, ND is only able to do on eof those, but I agree with you they are definitely overrated, but look for them to make it back to one of the top bowl games next yr.

wvu wins the sugar bowl 38-35 over georgia

wow what a call by wvu, nice fake punt, glad i stuck in to watch most of this game ^for those who didnt see it, georgia had the chance to get the ball back to tie this game with a field goal, they lined up one guy on the line and wvu lined up three, center snapped it and the punter got it and took off running after his line blocked georgias linemen, gutsty, but nice call

dont know if anyones still watching but its a three point game two minutes into the fourth quarter

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jan 2, 2006 -> 11:24 PM) why they already have 2 good RB's in Brown and Henry. Dont forget the future hall of famer jarrod payton

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Jan 2, 2006 -> 11:03 PM) BTW, Oakland has now won the coin flip and picks 6 Hmm that really blows for San Fran, out of all the teams they have the most holes to fill. Id like to see Vince Young fall to them and TO go back to his former team. Snowballs chance in hell though.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jan 2, 2006 -> 12:26 PM) Preliminary Projection: #1 Houston-Reggie Bush(the sexy selection, but, not necessarily the correct selection) #2 New Orleans-Matt Leinart(a franchise quarterback and someone to groom for a year with a new head coach...this is an absolutely ideal selection for a team like New Orleans desperate to get a face for their now embattled franchise) #4 New York Jets-Vince Young(a little too high for a Vince Young selection in my opinion, but, with Pennington and his arm troubles fresh in everyone's memories after an absolutely dismal season, the Jets make the big splash and draft the quarterback of the future, a fine choice) I dont think New Orleans would be a good fit for Leinart. Vince Young fits it better, also something tells me that the New York Jets are going to trade up and try to make some sort of deal with the Texans.

QUOTE(THEWOOD @ Jan 2, 2006 -> 12:48 PM) I reallly hope AJ does not go to the Packers. That would be hard for me to watch. Any team but the Packers!! lol funny how this works, i hate the buckeyes and hawk and im a huge packers fan, but he helps the pack incredibly

dont look now but its tied
