QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 14, 2013 -> 02:16 PM) Would rather see what we got in Rienzo and crew over 162 games than watch Gavin every 5th day. If Rienzo can become Gavin then that's a win here. Not saying I disagree with you cause I don't but Floyd became extremely underrated because he was frustrating to watch.

Ya I'm not giving a pitcher a 6-7 year deal for 100 plus.

It'll be interesting to see how long the Shockers can stay undefeated for. The Valley isn't the greatest this year and they're pretty good. I can see them heading into the NCAA's with only 2 or 3 losses.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Dec 14, 2013 -> 01:53 PM) That is very much a realistic possibility. Maybe Garcia 20 HRs and Abreu 35 - but who knows. Garcia at 15 and Abreu at 20 is also possible. I'm of the mindset that success is far more likely than mediocrity. Dunn is also a wild card to me this year. Think he may have his best year with us thus far. That's my bold prediction for 2014. It's realistic looking at it on a 1 on 1 basis, the odds of all 3 of them putting up those numbers is unlikely.

Ive seriously almost decked the cab waiver downer guy but talk about not worth it. And the bathroom attendants are the worst. I feel bad for them but I'm not tipping to go to the bathroom. As a previous poster said, they're all around Wrigley now and it's annoying as hell.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 13, 2013 -> 09:43 AM) Jake Peavy---Cy Young award winner, considered one of the better pitchers in baseball---------------shut up and pitch. Adam Eaton--AAA star, hasn't accomplished much on the major league level-----------------------you have to love his confidence. Find a poster who has said both. Your technique of calling out an entire message board for having a variety of opinions is always fantastic.

So I haven't listened to the interview, why is he cocky?

Listen to Krush, he's had the sharting problem more than once.

Good god, what's with all the swearing?

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 10:04 PM) Montee Ball got his helmet ripped off and I don't know if I've seen him since. That and the Broncos aren't up to run the ball a lot. This may not turn out so well... Ya man you might be in trouble there. The 2nd half has like 300 yards and 3 tds for Peyton written all over it.

I'm unfortunately on a business trip so I can't witness this but two of my roommates are playing each other in the playoffs and it's Manning, Demaryius and Mathews vs Rivers, Allen and Prater tonight. How fun.

QUOTE (OilCan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 07:53 PM) ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!? Barely, needs more boobs.

Nick Foles is a semi decent example as well.

Anyways, my whole point is that the "you can't lose your job due to injury" saying is just ridiculous imo.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 04:26 PM) He played in, nay, WON the AFC Championship, and was then replaced by Tom Brady in the Superbowl. Ok I completely misremembered than.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 04:20 PM) Was Bledsoe healthy enough to come back that season? Its been so long, but I thought his chest injury was pretty severe. Ya, from what I remember he ended up sticking with Brady over Bledsoe at the end of the season and through the playoffs.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 04:08 PM) A starting QB doesnt lose his job to injury, especially a starting QB that is as talented at Cutler. Then we'd have no Tom Brady.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 02:38 PM) You brought up 2012. That Sixer team was awful. That's a series you still win. And last year they had Nate. He won game 4 by himself and was terrific the whole series. That's what you need. Not necessarily Nate. But guys that can stretch you out and take you off the bounce. Nate would be useless on a team with Derrick. That 2012 team and this team were built around the basis that Derrick was going to be there.

No point in arguing with J4L. The point is no one knows, I think the Bulls had enough to win this year if healthy, they're not healthy and this core more than likely never will be. I wanted to give this core a chance this year cause they've never all been together but with Deng's contract expiring and Noah breaking down all the time and Rose being completely broken, it's time to blow it up.

I also don't understand blaming Beckman for last year, those weren't his players and they were expected to suck, how is that his fault?

Honestly the Blackhawks have become so damn good that the regular season is kind of meh. I still watch but it's more interesting to talk about the train wreck that is your Chicago Bulls.

I don't follow Illinois football closely enough but firing any coach after 2 seasons just doesn't sound like a smart idea.

Like I said in the other thread, worth a shot, no downside to selecting him.

Ya why not? No downside to this.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 07:12 AM) Perfer the regular eggnog, I do, but the alcoholic version is fine, too. Quite the rhymer we got here.
