QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 12:21 AM) I had to watch the replay of that on ESPN3 after reading this. While it's crazy, the QB simply can't run the ball there. That's the risk when you stay in bounds. Agreed. QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 02:46 AM) You risk the referee fumbled the ball 10 feet away and burning the end of the game clock? Lol. I agree they should have gone all passes there at the end, but what a horses*** way to lose the game. How can there not be something in the rules that allows the refs to allow them to take one last play with 1 second left to end the game? I mean, there is no doubt they get that play off if the ref doesn't lose the football. Not necessarily that but the ball gets kicked or bounces away a lot of times in that situation. You better be 100 percent sure you're getting in the endzone when you take off on that play. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 10:43 AM) Exactly. You risk a lot of things happening at that point. The call/decision is the reason they lost. Yup.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 09:12 AM) I am not. Nope. I'm done with him.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 14, 2014 -> 09:23 AM) Where are you guys hearing this? Schefter said that it's 75 percent that neither Alshon or Marshall will play.

Quintana good.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 13, 2014 -> 02:39 PM) It's been a while since I did that or the century club. Those nights were usually shorter than normal for me, lol It's apparently become our pre game for a concert move. I can still drink like I'm in college but my hangovers are much, much worse now a days.

Power hour pre and post Zac Brown concert/casino had me feeling good last night.

This f***in guy: http://deadspin.com/mayweather-on-being-a-...dium=socialflow Props to Rachel Nichols here.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 12, 2014 -> 04:27 PM) You could play for eastwest southern alabama state a&m. That's not a real school.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 12, 2014 -> 11:18 AM) I get that he hasnt looked good, i just dont think that this is anything to get excited over, one way or another. It's not. He can be awful the whole first half of the season and I won't give a damn as long as he's ok physically.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 12, 2014 -> 06:05 AM) Gonna watch it tonight. It's easily the best brand WWE has right now. I actually only caught the women's title match and the fatal four way and they were both terrific

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 10:06 PM) Gotta feel for the pitcher Friers there too. He was clearly shaken up. Hasn't hit a batter since 2012 then hits Stanton and Reed Johnson in consecutive at bats. Agreed. That could be a career changer for both guys.

f*** Owen Daniels.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 09:26 PM) Jesus. Do they allow tackling anymore? One, if not two, awful personal foul calls on the Steelers there. I thought both of those calls sucked.

NXT is indeed awesome.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 06:02 PM) Pedro in 2000. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 06:04 PM) Pedro in 2000 had an ERA of 1.74. That was an ERA plus of (get ready...) 291. Sale's ERA+ is "only" 190. Pedro Martinez is possibly the greatest pitcher of all time. You check his B-Ref page and it blows you away. Dude was dominating during the steroid era, just filthy. Had a feeling it was Pedro. And ya, he was something else. Thanks guys.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 05:48 PM) It'd be cool to have Chris finish with an era below 2. Speaking of which, does anyone know the last time an AL pitcher has done that?

It'd be cool to have Chris finish with an era below 2.

Had to post this picture for scs.

So I got nominated to do the ice bucket challenge a few weeks back which I did but my buddy's wife recorded it and never put it on facebook. Anyways, I just got a call on my direct line at work that said "Our records indicate that you were nominated to do the ice bucket challenge and have not yet completed it..." Facebook's crazy.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 11, 2014 -> 11:58 AM) I feel the exact opposite. Sometimes it feels like Cutler is to blame for global warming and war in the middle east. I think it's went both ways during his time in Chicago.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 10, 2014 -> 06:48 PM) Of course, you need bigger names than Olbermann and Sage Rosenfels calling for your resignation/firing. Heads are you going to allow this?

So Spain got beat by France today.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 10, 2014 -> 05:16 PM) Thanks for the information. After 10+ years I was pretty confident you wouldnt say something like that unless you were almost positive (obviously nothing is for certain in life). Thank you, sir, I do appreciate that. Not that I was breaking any surprise news or anything but hey it was fun to be in the know for once. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 10, 2014 -> 05:17 PM) I'm not sure but they are actually in on a couple kids from Texas in this class (Evans and Thomas). QUOTE (illinilaw08 @ Sep 10, 2014 -> 05:18 PM) No special connection as far as I know. Groce recognized the talent early and has been on him hard since the summer before Evans' Soph year if I'm remembering right. The ability to offer the keys to what should be a pretty talented roster to a kid as a freshman is a pretty strong selling point. Gotcha. Didn't know if he had some connection in Texas or something.

What's the connection that Groce/Illinois has to Evans?
