QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 06:36 PM) My guess is that since the same regime is staying there, they'll stick with VJax one more year. I don't really want Welker. I want Bowe...I just can't see the Chiefs letting him get away. Same here, I find a Bowe/Bennett pairing to be pretty good.

I shoot about 25% while providing the same great defense.

only 3 years in. Congrats.

He is so much worse than huckabee.

I don't think it's being blown out of proportion, it is absolutely incredible that that man could come even close to winning any primary/caucus is an absolute embarrassment for our democracy.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 02:52 PM) Martz didn't even let Cutler really audible. The OC should be making his game-plan adapt to his franchise QB, not the other way around. Is that why he put the plays in so late?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 09:00 AM) So, Mizzou beat Oklahoma by 38. Damn. And Kadeem Green transfers. I put that as my status and one of my friends commented "Leaving 7 scholarships" Now, he was on the team with Shannon Scott (OSU) and a bunch of other D1 kids last year in HS. He wants to try out for the Mizzou team next year (I actually think if he fixes his 3, he can make it). So I said "That leaves one available..." "Hopefully for a 5-star recruit" And it went over his head. With the way we were stacking up players you knew somebody was going to have to go. We were on pace to have a full roster next year which I don't think we've had the past decade.

I did mean coaching personnel.

What's the definition of Holmgrening?

Congrats Iowa for propelling Rick Santorum to 3rd place. Great job!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 11:11 PM) The press conference? I listened. Mostly your typical BS you would expect. Good to hear that money wasn't a factor in firing Angelo and won't affect the future hire. I was nnoyed that they wouldn't delve into what Angelo did wrong "out of respect" for him. All they kept saying was that they need to close the talent gap between them & the rest of the division, which is obviously true. I would have liked to hear their exact criticism of Angelo, also how much the Cutler injury played a part in his firing. I am a fan of Lovie as a coach, but holding onto him worries me a little, because some GMs may not want to take the job if they can't bring in their own coach. Pretty sure the talent gap was referring to what he did wrong. But if you want a good GM you'd probably be best served not airing the dirty laundry of the previous person.

k nobody cares. George McCaskey says that it was not hard to bite the money owed to angelo. It will not be a decision in finding the candidate now, and in the future money will not be considered for personnel decisions. I hope this is truly the case.

anyone listening this?

I see no reason not to promote Tice. I know some don't think he's qualified...I disagree. And I'd rather promote him than lose him.

Ah, I'm an idiot. Thanks.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 06:55 PM) Wrong year to make that offer. You lose 20% of your free games. what does this mean? Do TNT games get blacked out or something?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 07:48 PM) Lovie may be an idiot when it comes to some in-game decisions, but he always has us prepared. I don't know what he does to prepare the Bears, but rarely do they come out just unready or unwilling to play like most teams do at least 3-4 times a year. Agreed. But he certainly has had trouble evaluating his own coaches and even players. He has known some very talented coaches, but it just doesn't seem that he gives a thought over whether they mesh with his own goals for the team. Martz was an absolutely awful hire for Lovie.

I thought that was Holdman that he didn't check the box on.

There's no way lovie should accept a demotion. He could easily get another head coaching gig.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 04:30 PM) Interesting choice. I personally would like a proven commodity, but beyond Cowher/Fisher who probably want to coach, McKenzie might be the best first-time GM candidate. If we hire from another organization, I would hope it would be from Green Bay, New England, San Francisco, Baltimore or Pittsburgh. absolutely.

Methinks we're going to be giving someone their first shot, I don't see an established guy wanting to come in with the staff all in place.

So I'm just going to go ahead and enjoy the season as opposed to debating whether the Heat are better year. Sound ok?

Really surprised. Not that thrilled with the Pollian thoughts.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Dec 30, 2011 -> 03:38 PM) I watched that game, it was literally against the law to play defense. Dang! Were they like, arresting players on the field and everything?
