  1. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 09:49 PM) I have three words for you: P E D Other teams need to start doing them than.
  2. I'm pretty sure everyone on Seattle's defense is just a create a player from Madden.
  3. QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 03:25 PM) I've never heard of Rick getting in coaches way. When I've seen him at games, he's usually just sitting and watching. Doesn't yell during the game anymore than other parents. Ya, as I've told you before, I've heard Rick is a complete asshole but I don't think he really gets in the coaches way. On the other hand, Jalen from everything I've been told is a great kid.
  4. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 11:50 AM) Corey Patterson approves jon greenberg ‏@jon_greenberg 47s Cubs bumping prices in three sections next season by an average of 6 percent. Others remain same or down. Overall % increase around 2 pct. And there's your reason for bringing some of these young guys up this year.
  5. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 3, 2014 -> 05:36 PM) That D was just decimated by injuries last year, and it started before the season even kicked off. I understand that but if he gets so much credit for the offensive turnaround then he has to get some blame for the defensivive collapse. I'm in no way saying he did a bad coaching job last year but I am saying that you can't give him an A yet.
  6. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 3, 2014 -> 05:03 PM) Emery turned one of the worst offensive lines into one of the best offensive lines in one off-season. ONE off season. He brought in Brandon Marshall, a top 5 WR, for pennies. He's brought in Jared Allen and some other good D-lineman that SHOULD vastly improve the defense this year. He's drafted pro-bowl quality players in Long and Jeffrey. Bostic still has that potential. You can't really expect a rookie to jump in and play middle linebacker with 2nd and 3rd string d-lineman in front of him. He's got a grade of A thus far in my book. Not sure what else you think he could have done. Trestman gets an A so far too. If we're going on what the guy had when he came in, his defense was old as dirt and half of them got hurt, his starting QB got hurt, so he brought in a semi-retired, HS FOOTBALL COACH back-up QB and turned him in to, statistically, one of the best in the league.The offense went from one of the ten worst to one of the ten best in the game. He was 17 seconds and a moronic defensive play call away from getting to the playoffs. And he never really embarrassed himself with stupid challenges or wasted time-outs (none that are memorable or impacted the game anyway, as best I can recall.) I don't think anyone is going to agree with you on that. As far as Trestman he inherited a team that went 10-6 and led them to an 8-8 record, I don't think you can give him an A just yet.
  7. I always prefer the aggressive promotions. If I had my way, he's starting for us out of ST next year but we'll see what happens.
  8. QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 3, 2014 -> 01:08 PM) At least he didn't say it a million times on national TV. It's become my biggest sports pet peeve. I don't get how Jeffery is so damn hard to say/write.
  9. Wright in a ppr could be a monster. So we did a live draft for one of my leagues on Monday and you had to write your picks on the draft board and the person who took Alshon wrote "Jeffries." I wanted to kick said person in the face.
  10. I still think the Seahawks and Niners are the two best teams in football.
  11. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 05:13 PM) That is so Jerry Jones It is very Jerry Jones but it actually does make football sense for them.
  12. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 05:11 PM) Hector Noesi is a #5 starter. Maybe. He has been with us so far but I wouldn't be shocked if he gets smashed next year if he's in the rotation all year long.
  13. QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 04:32 PM) I think Quintana is overrated, I dont see a number 2, I see a 3/4 starter. What do you do when the market overvalues your assets more than you do? You work the market to your advantage and you make a move. I'm not going to thrash you for your opinion but I am interested as to why you have that opinion?

  15. Ya I have 0 faith in EJ at this point. If he finds his arm again, great, if not then he's toast.
  16. I always thought Tanaka would have 2/3 great years before probably falling apart, I guess he might not even make it that far. Too bad.
  17. Here's the thing, I'm not sold on Micah being the 2b next year but the Sox seem to be. If they're dead set on doing that then I think one of the ways to go about upgrading lf or catcher or sp or whatever is by selling high on Conor because we have Semien who can fill in. He wont be as good right away as Gillaspie was this year but he's also not going to create a hole at 3b.
  18. QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 08:52 AM) In your PPR leagues, how much for 1 rec? QB: Rodgers WR: VJax WR: VCruz RB: AP RB: Bush Flex: MJD or Reggie Wayne TE: Olsen K: Bryant D: Arizona A point. Point Per Reception.
  19. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 08:30 AM) Given the large number of holes elsewhere, the Sox don't really have any other option than to give Gillaspie the chance to keep up that pace. There simply aren't enough resources to fill all the other holes AND upgrade at 3B via free agency and trades. Even if he regresses to a 720 OPS, which is the worst case scenario, that is MLB average for 3B. If the Sox redirect resources to upgrade at 3B, they will be well below average at LF, DH, and C (not to mention bullpen). So it really doesn't make sense. None at all. I'm not looking to redirect resources to 3b but if the Sox really want Micah to be the starting 2b next year then I'm looking to sell high on Conor to upgrade elsewhere and let Semien be the everyday 3b.
  20. We have no starting pitching depth at the major league level right now, trading Q is just an awful idea right now.
  21. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 2, 2014 -> 08:22 AM) Bottom line, I don't think trading Quintana is a good idea It's an awful idea.
  22. Paige better start dating one of the top guys to fit in with the other 4 that were in the ring. And I know this will probably never happen but I wish the Punk chants would go away when AJ is around.
  23. QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 1, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) Bella's are awful. Vince is great at exploiting something for attention. This Raw sucks but the crowd is worse. Ambrose and Steph need to get back on this show pronto. The last show and a half have been horrendous.
