I feel like residency requirements are kind of antiquated and stupid.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 03:00 PM) You're crediting the fact that Hanie came in and had a good attitude for the fact that the Bears could suddenly move the ball, and not the fact that they were actually moving the ball? I'd be moping too if Todd Collins was in at QB. This is such a contradictory statement it's not even worth bothering with.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 02:48 PM) Does everyone whose accusing Jay of willingly sitting out this game understand the actual implications of what they’re suggesting? Does anyone actually believe that Jay Cutler wanted to lose this game? To be put under scrutiny in like this? To throw a kid like Hanie into the fire on this kind of stage? I refuse to believe that Cutler is the kind of man that would come within a game of the Super Bowl, get a minor injury, and blow it out of proportion. I don’t think any competitor, any NFL Quarterback, would pull the kind of s*** that Cutler is being accused of. I think the entire discussion is disturbing on many levels. I don't think Jay actually just didn't want to play. OTOH, this game made me realize that in football, the s*** arguments i hate about intangibles are probably true. Jay's body language sucks. And his attitude sucks too. I used to think that he caught s*** just because he wasn't the typical media personality, but when he mopes, it seems to spread across the whole offense and even team. I don't think there is any doubt that when hanie came in and was stepping up and delivering throws that the entire team suddenly had some swagger. And maybe it was the sheer improbability of this kid coming in and all the sudden leading us to points, but it made me think twice about all that bulls*** about attitude and leadership. That said, that SI article was pretty heartbreaking. He doesn't deserve the s*** he's getting. But all the arguing i do that most of his ints were johnny knox and martz system will settle in, I'm kind of tired of it. I don't think he can be an elite QB. But then again, i've never seen a bears QB with the kind of time that peyton manning or brady get...so we'll see if we ever get him a true OLine and WRs what happen.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 02:14 PM) God sometimes it's really f***ing embarrassing to be a Bears fan. Seriously. I'm mad about Cutler's actual performance in the game. It was complete and utter s***. All these armchair athletes calling Cutler a p**** though from their couch while the dude could barely walk or plant his foot for a throw... ugh. Disgusting. I get that...now, but you can't tell me when fox was saying it was questionable he'd return that you didn't think he took himself out. The bears were stupid for how they handled it.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 22, 2011 -> 05:49 PM) the bulls took the celtics to 7 games with a vastly inferior team and coach, and a rookie Derrick Rose. i think they could win a 7 game series against this older celtics team. wasn't garnett out that year?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 21, 2011 -> 11:11 PM) I don't recall where but I believe I read that the video shows a receiver ran totally the wrong route and that was a timing pattern/throw. no way johnny knox should have ran behind the guy like that.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 21, 2011 -> 11:11 PM) I figured it was her believing she was actually becoming a swan in her head and imagination, just like all the other wierd stuff that happened. Maybe just me. The mother/daughter thing was creepy but a mom trying to live vicariously through their child is nothing new. We see it in sports all the time. I didn't say it wasn't nothing new, it was the most boring, been-done relationship that added nothing new. And just because she is imagining it doesn't make it less condescending. It was a stupid idea...

i thought aronofski hamfisted it, which isn't a surprise. He could have relied on Portman's great performance to merely show she was turning into the blackswan character...he had to actually show us HEY HEY GUYS DO YOU GET IT SHE'S TURNING INTO THE SWAN!? SEE THE FEATHERS!!! That and the script he wrote was just so obviously written by a dude. That mom-daughter relationship was just boring.

I knew a brent. He was also very golly gee. Always dated younger girls, however.

WHOA http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/20/google-ceo-change/ Eric Schmidt has been replaced by Larry Page at Google.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 09:12 PM) Same here. I'm thinking more like .235-.250/.290-.310/.390+ and as a strong defensive player with some pop and good speed making the league minimum, that's good enough. He's also backed so deeply at 3B (Dayan, Omar, Brent, Teahen) that we shouldn't be hurt if he really struggles out of the gate and needs to be demoted. I wouldn't even call 3B a position of weakness actually because we've got so much D and flexibility there. I think he can hit .250. My slugging was high though, likely.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 07:30 PM) Eh. We are halfway through this Presidency, and confidence is where now? I'm not sure what gets said that changes two years of non-believing, but OK Where was reagan at this point?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 04:53 PM) It doesn't? I thought it was hitler exclusive.

Yeah, Kanye's personality is such an outlier, most rappers are very humble.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 04:46 PM) Reasonable? Not many rookies are going to hit .291 in there first season (I'm not even going to count that brief cup of coffee he got last year). I find those projections pure crapola. I hope they are true, but probably pure crap. I agree. I'll be happy with .250/.300/450

i believe godwin's law should apply to goebbels

replace hathaway with halle barry and i heard the same thing. A bad movie is a bad movie.
