QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 03:36 PM) He does that and he's the biggest loser to come out of Stevenson since Rowand44. Oh c'mon now...there's probably someone out there that's a bigger loser than me. FWIW the person who told me Nova months back still thinks it's going to be them but said it's just a gut feeling at this point.

Ray Rice Cut and Suspended Indefinitely
It's not an overreaction, just nobody acted appropriately when it first happened.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 11:54 AM) I'd also like to remind everyone that last year the darlings the 49ers opened up against the packers and Kaep threw for like 500 yards and 4 tds and everyone thought the 9ers offense had risen! Then it sputtered for the rest of the season. Point is, this is a long season. They still made it to the NFC championship game. I get your point but it's not like the Niners nose dived or something.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 11:38 AM) Frankie thinks Christine got boo'd because she was mean to him. Omg. Nobody is even thinking of going after Derrick. If he doesn't win, it's a shame. The only other person I'd consider over him is Caleb but he's a wuss. No one deserves any consideration besides Derrick, it's been his game all the way through.

2015 Offseason
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 05:49 AM) Is this is a riddle or something? The guy that bats leadoff gets the most plate appearances. That was one of the most bizarre claims I've ever seen anywhere in the history of life.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 12:44 AM) See that's what I thought, to which my next question is "um, why?" I believe Seattle's scheme has him in the same spot no matter what WR is over there, which does seem a bit odd but it seems to work for them. If anything it makes me wonder if GB switched around their game plan to keep Jordy and Cobb away from Sherman as much as possible. Like you said earlier, has to be an odd feeling.

So I'm sure people will get tired of hearing about this all year long but the guys Sherman was guarding didn't have a single target tonight. He's good.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 10:46 PM) It's not that crazy a statement. Offense looks really good against what is supposed to be an improved packers D. It's a crazy statement. They're really, really good but their division is loaded, their schedule is really difficult and I hear it's pretty hard to go undefeated. They'll lose at least 2.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 09:58 PM) And some people thought he'd break down this year... Still possible, but he's got a great o-line blocking for him and he's pretty damn awesome. 4th straight year I've had him now cause of my keeper and I'm basically always ready for him to break down cause of how many hits he takes/dishes out but he seems to be his own animal. Hopefully he keeps going.

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.

2014 Cubs Catch-All Thread
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.

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.

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.

Carlos Rodon prospect watch
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.
