Actually, now realizing my favorite part about that game was having Gary Danielson announcing as his favorite toy gets destroyed.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 31, 2014 -> 07:33 PM) The issue with the fastball is the most concerning thing in that article, IMO. Yeah, I figured he was crushing fastballs and hangers, but...if he's just crushing hangers. This org really needs to dive into what it is doing wrong with position player development.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 2, 2015 -> 08:36 AM) So is it too early to declare Urban Meyer the best college football coach ever? Probably because old people never let the ole ball coaches die. I will say that this playoff era will be the one that defines best ever. It was a nice run of hating Saban, but ye gods if OSU can do this with their 3rd string QB. Pretty sure all of OSUs QBs are better than Missouri's starters until we get Drew Lock going. Even if Alabama pulled that out, I don't think they'd win championship, they had ridiculous problems on deep passes. Boy, good thing the SEC added Missouri and A&M so we could prop up this crap conference.

That was one of the better throws I've seen and it wasn't from a QB.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 09:10 PM) So Hinrich is 4/4, 2/2 from 3, 2 ast 2 reb, +16 on the game. Ok, these things happen. He Was clearly overplayed. He has not only looked good with his shot, he's been his usual stellar defense around screens.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 09:05 PM) Turns out two turnovers in your own territory is bad. Considering Alabamas vulnerability to long throws, it's understandable the willingness to pass. Just sucks the OSU QB situation.

Nurkic (whom Bulls traded pick that drafted him for Doug) is punking Gasol and laughing at him. Cocky kid but he's got game.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 08:24 PM) He's healthy so I don't give a s*** These are stretches you could predict having really had a run of games. But, his defense is a joke recently.

Yeah, people thought this would be an easy stretch for Bulls but they've all just gone ice cold.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 1, 2015 -> 05:06 PM) Good sign but you pretty much have to. My guess is he will take the Jets if offered. My only thought is he must have known major interest from a party before leaving. Maybe not, but it's interesting. Edit: nvm, didn't realize jets were lined up.

I forgot that coach/GM searches are kind of boring because there's really not that many rumors.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 31, 2014 -> 01:42 PM) I think a DeCosta (Ravens GM) and Kubiak (Ravens OC) would be best case scenario for the Bears GM & HC job. I have always been a fan of the Ravens drafts, hence why they are consistently good. And Kubiak brings HC experience who is dedicated to the run, runs 2 TE sets and a lot of play action. Agreed. One of the things I've always admired about the Lakers (even though they are screwed now), for the best example, or maybe also Yankees, is how they totally behave with the attitude of "if you are the best in the league, you are going to be a Laker". And things just kind of fall in line. There is no reason a flagship franchise like the Bears should not have that attitude, except they've been a bumbling, poorly performing franchise for 25 years and 25 years before that. But they have the resources to say to DeCosta "we will give you whatever amount you want, and the power to create the franchise in your image with 100% support. Go". If he turns down, fine, but why not go after that? He's clearly the creme de la creme.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 31, 2014 -> 01:51 PM) If Bo Wallace and an uninterested ole miss team was across the field that day they would be in. But they aren't. Bowl games after the fact a month later doesn't change the decision that was made based on the factors they published all along no matter how much the broadcasting team wants to keep repeating it. Congrats to TCU for a huge statement win. But yeah, I really wanted to see Bo go out on top. I was a big fan, his great games were so great. He was a likeable player. But he was definitely prone to this stuff and it can blow up in spectacular fashion against a good team.
