Skip Bayless should not have a job, period.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 21, 2011 -> 08:30 AM) $94.8 million. Basically an average of $19 mil a year. Can he just have the 94 mil and I'll take the .8?

QUOTE (TheCut87 @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 09:04 PM) Rodgers wasnt the only one in that game to have a sub-par performance, i dont even remember how many passes were dropped by recievers and the defense couldn't get the big turn over that they have been getting week in and week out, i don't mind this loss it is a good wake up call for the packers going into the playoffs. I was working so I didn't get to watch but I was told that Aaron was just fine but the receivers completely let him down...

QUOTE (kev211 @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 09:32 PM) Yeah, he's been doing really well so far in the D league. Kid can definitely score. Too bad he's a 2 guard in a point guards body.

BTW, I was cleaning out my room at my dads house the other day because he's moving in a few months and I happened to find scouting reports that I had written on like the top 30 teams from the 2009-2010 season, I had forgot that I did that and remembered how big of a nerd I was.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) I saw them last year in Evanston where they had several of these guys and really only McDermott was particularly impressive. Obviously they have Echinique and Gibbs now and some of them have gotten better so I realize it's not the exact game. I'm not counting this as a win in the bag by any stretch. There's a difference between saying they can "compete" with them and saying they'd finish second in a deep, strong conference. They smoked Iowa and beat Nebraska by 10, but neither of those teams is exactly the cream of the Big Ten crop. They're 55th in Pomeroy right now because they're giving up a ton of points per possession. Even Northwestern has a higher defensive efficiency so far, which isn't exactly a ringing endorsement. I'd take my chances with Wisconsin and Indiana since they're about as efficient offensively so far and are giving up a lot fewer points. After that everyone has been a little more hit or miss, which is why I said if NU can win this game I'd feel a lot better about them against teams like Purdue, Illinois and Michigan State. That's why I said compete over a full season and not just one game. I'm not sure if I'd take them over Wiscy or IU BUT I certainly think it'd be a possibility that they would finish 2nd.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) I wouldn't go THAT far. Offensively they can hang, but they're 182nd in defensive efficiency so far (through Friday) and lost to a fairly middling St. Joe's team. However, they are a near lock tournament team and will probably win the MVC. If NU could win there, I'd feel a lot better about their chances against the middle tier of the Big Ten. Watch them play before you decide that, they're really f'n good. Besides OSU there isn't a team in the B10 that they wouldn't be able to compete with over the course of a full season. Doug McDermott is a flat out baller.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 08:05 PM) Creighton could possibly be the 2nd best team in the Big 10 if they played in the conference this year. They're fantastic. I still believe they're the best Valley team since the 07 Salukis. The MVC should be back to being a 3-4 bid league this year and Creighton, WSU and InSU could all make some noise in the tourny, the league is definitely back after a few year hiatus, if only SIU didn't fall off the map.

Butler was a solid ft shooter in college.

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 07:19 PM) Is he crying to the refs as much as he did in high school? Not a big fan of that family.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 05:26 PM) This UNLV/Illini game is so ugly. UNLV's shooting on these tight rims is comical. UNLV has been that type of team for yrs but it works.

Take that NIU!

I don't know.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 09:10 AM) A lot can happen in 34 minutes QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 10:21 AM) Oh I know, it was the juxtaposition of the excitement and anticipation with the simple statement of letdown and disappointment with no one else's posts in between. Haha hope you guys know me good enough to realize that was sarcasm...

QUOTE (The Critic @ Dec 13, 2011 -> 04:42 PM) Rumor is Jericho. The dirt sites claim he'll go against Punk at Mania. Color me excited for a war of words between Punk and Jericho! After seeing this last Video on SD unless the E is just 100 percent trying to swerve people, it's absolutely Jericho, way too many hints in there.

Bulls suck.

Well Boys and Girls, it's about that time...WHO CAN SET THE COURT ON FIRE?!?!?

J4L you know I love ya but all you've done the last two yrs in this thread is be completely wrong and you keep trying to shoot down peoples opinions, doesn't work that way bud.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 02:00 PM) Maybe one of them is Aaron Rodgers Tim Tebow? Now that would be hilarious...

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 01:58 PM) I wouldnt be surprised if this bled into other sports. There are many sports figures in this city that buy coke and weed. Show me LeBron James or Dwayne Wade!

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 10:16 AM) @mikecwright: #Bears receiver Sam Hurd arrested last night on federal drug charges, according to Dallas Morning News QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 10:28 AM) Sam Hurd arrested on Federal drug charges yay alma mater. :o :o

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 14, 2011 -> 12:02 PM) Him and Peyton Manning. Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, Jay Cutler, Tim Tebow, John Skelton, there are your MVP candidates.

If the writers aren't going to vote roiders into the hall then how the hell can they not strip Braun of the mvp?

If the E would let them loose then Punk-Jericho would be one of the best feuds of all time.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Dec 13, 2011 -> 03:47 AM) I think i may have started something terrible.... One more final and I have just a semester left of undergrad, this is so wrong. MVC vs b10 drink off? It might be like 9 people against 1000 but we'll still win...
