Peter King picks Bears for Super Bowl
QUOTE (hammerhead johnson @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 10:12 PM) Consuming blockers and clogging the interior are responsibilities 1A and 1B for our DTs. That's what Tommie Harris, Marcus Harrison, and Anthony Adams will provide. When it's a pass play, you'll see 'em pushing the interior blockers back towards the QB. Sacks should be few and far between for DTs in any system, because it's more about freeing up your linebackers and making it easy for your DEs to do some real damage, innit? man we did not draft small, fast DTs because they are good at collecting blockers.

If we go on a 20 game win streak
I was thinking about what I would do, klondike bar style, for a 20 game win streak right about now, ala 03 athletics, or those silly rockies. Now, I'm about to move to Brazil, which has a certain reputation for a certain set of videos. No guarantees, but, if we make a big run. Check your youtube. We are also going to do a pig roast, I'll eat the eye ball and rectum. I've seen it done on Bizarre foods.

Well, against the best RB in our division we got smoked both games. Against the best QB in our division we never touched him and he smoked us both games. We play those teams 4 times. Our D failed us both.

Rock Eras
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 03:24 PM) I'm open to listening to anything. Any good suggestions? My point was kind of, a lot of these highlighted bands from previous decades have the benefit of time to remove them from the mucky bands of their era. I mean we are looking at late 60s and attributing the Velvets to that time, which is correct, but they weren't that well known outside new york and didn't get a lot of traction until lou reed struck it big with transformer. And so then we get to cherry pick 80s bands like the replacements and pixies, husker du, when the overwhelming bombardment of music was absolute s*** at the time. And so now, in the midst of getting bombarded with nickelback, country and autotune (which I actually like, but I'll play ball), I think it's easy to say this is the worst time for rock, and i guess by classical rock standards it is. But for me, I'll take this time over 10 years ago, because though awesome albums came out and some of my favorite bands were in their prime (soft bulletin, lonesome crowded west, terror twighlight/brighten the corners) they were just completely buried as, frankly, the worst pop phase of any since hair bands, nu-rock and rap-rock took hold. The music I listen to now is much closer, if not the, form of pop-rock now. Grizzly Bear debuted at #4, Animal Collective's vinyl! came out top 25. So I think It'll be easier to tell 5 years from now where this era stands, but also, it's important to note the sheer amount of music we have access to nowadays, means likely a "Fad" or "wave" might not ever come again. (out of nowhere I mean, musical directional shifts might be much more subtle). So, beyond the obvious, there might be an absolute gem of an album right now that will be slow to gain traction, but will have the ability to through social networking and the internet. So this is going to be a hard time to get a gauge on. That said for the sheer fact that the popular music coincided with the best kind of rock going on, I'd say the late 60's to early 70s takes it, then pop music goes into the abyss for many years.

Official 2009-2010 NFL Thread
QUOTE (T R U @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 02:03 AM) Yeah, I forgot how many times that guy has been split out wide like that. Thats the nature of the block a QB is taught how to make, I never said it wasn't a dirty play but that Favre was just put into a bad situation. Although it really doesn't matter to me at all what any of you think about the play anyways so ill leave it at that. I've seen Favre make many blocks, and I remember them because Madden whips out his boner when they happen.
