QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Dec 6, 2011 -> 11:43 AM) I'm still hoping for a Punk vs Bryan Mania match. I've seen that match a few times on the indy circuit and I know itd be a MOTY type match if they let em work. I certainly wouldn't complain about that but I think Punk-Miz is a perfect title match at mania. Punk could carry the match and the promos would be absolutely epic, it would be quite the Wrestlemania build up. And I'm also ready for Ziggler to get in the title picture as his mic work has improved tremendously and he's one of the best around in the ring. Wouldn't be surprised if he drops the US title to Ryder so he can receive his push into the WWE title picture.

Still not sure if this means rebuild mode though, might just be dumping Serg because of Addy, we'll see...

If this means a full out rebuild, sign me the f*** up.

No idea. My grandma whose house I've been at for every year of my life on Christmas just passed away last week. All I know is I will be watching the Bulls and Aaron Rodgers, don't really care where at.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Dec 6, 2011 -> 01:27 AM) Best Raw in months. Absolutely. The opening and ending segments were the best things we've had probably since the summer of Punk. Well freakin done for once.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 6, 2011 -> 02:13 AM) The playoff system would be easy: 11 conference champions and 5 wild card teams. Shorten the regular season to 10 or 11 games if you have to, and do that. Very similar to what 1-AA did before expanding their playoffs last season. The system would make such an incredible amount of money, and in that sense, I'm amazed it hasn't happened yet. I can tell you this much, if NIU were getting ready to play at Alabama in the 1st round of the tournament right now, I'd be incredibly excited. Even with the knowledge that we had absolutely no shot at winning the game. In the meantime though, I'll just hope for a plus 1. Baby steps. Seriously, how f***in cool would this be?

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) Whatever. Get a new system and you and everyone else will find something else to b**** about. The system we have now is better than anything that has ever existed. The most fairly perceived system isn't always the best. Ask ss2k about class basketball in Indiana. Oh ya, because I b**** about every other playoff(keyword there) system that we have in sports. And who gives a s*** if it's the best system we've had, those sucked and this one f***in sucks. There is not a thing worse in sports than the BCS, it's f***in garbage. And it pains me that I'm so indifferent about the NC in a sport that I love. I'm one of the biggest college sports fans around but this stupid system is completely ruining the game for me.

Make the Fantasy Football playoffs! Seriously though, I've only asked for money the last few years because I've been so damn poor but I've been working a decent job the last few months and just got a great job offer today which I'll be starting next week so I really don't have much to ask for right now, life is good.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 09:10 PM) The bottom line is the system is what it is and most of the things people are b****ing about are the same things that have always happened. This isn't new stuff. And the bottom line is that it f***in sucks.

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 03:41 PM) I'd think that Stanford/Oklahoma St might be a better game than LSU/Alabama. It'll be higher scoring and something new, that's for sure. QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 03:41 PM) Heisman anyone? Haven't really heard enough about it, but it's the closest race I can remember. To me, it comes down to Griffin and Mathieu. It's really a good question and I have no clue who I would vote for at this point to be honest.

Don't know but was very excited to see him win.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 11:39 AM) If Favre was going to come back, he would have gone to Houston. Houston didn't want him. And TJ Yates looked a lot better yesterday than Caleb has looked so far.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 11:33 AM) Chizik voted OSU 5th. Someone in the Harris poll voted OSU 6th...behind Houston. Ok, what the f***?

On a side note, I actually really like Kyle Orton but it was quite funny how he got hurt on his first play.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 10:11 AM) Nick Saban voted Stanford 3rd, OSU 4th Smart move on his part.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 11:18 AM) Who rates Texas and ATM as good teams anymore? Anyway, the reason why Ok State should be in is because under this system we only have one game to determine the champion. After the regular season there is one game to prove who the best was. LSU already has a solid claim that it's better than Bama. They won in Bama. If Bama doesn't get in, they can't complain because they had their shot against No. 1. Ultimately I think Bama keeps the game closer than Ok State would, but just because they are a better match up for that style. If Bama wins, we don't have a clear national champ and that's a big problem. If Ok State and LSU play there is no controversy. I could not agree with this more, this is exactly where I stand.

QUOTE (SnB @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 08:14 AM) On a different note, AT&T Park would be an AWESOME place to watch an illini bowl game. Too bad no one in their right mind is going to drop that dough on airfare to watch a horribly disappointing team play another bad team. Has there ever been a bowl game where the two teams have a combined losing record?

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 5, 2011 -> 07:28 AM) IMO the Big 12 is not better than the SEC. Most experts agree, just go by the eye test. Overrated Penn St? Who did Oklahoma St beat out of conference? And yes, their loss is WAY better. Sorry you lost to f***ing Iowa St, that's no one's fault but your own. The whole winning conference/division makes no difference to me, like I said earlier you would have had the same thing if LSU lost Saturday, and they still would have been in the title game. Plus, they had the 1/2/3 teams in the COUNTRY in the same division at one point. There's no way their resume is "clearly better", there's no way they clearly played a better schedule. Besides, if LSU is the #1 team, Alabama took them to overtime, to pretend they aren't even close to the #2 team is ignorant. The bottom line is that if they never played each other during the regular season this wouldn't be an issue. Most people just want something different instead of the rematch, that's what is fueling the hate. That's fine to want something different, but to use that to say Oklahoma St is clearly better is weak. What's fueling my hate is that this is college football where "every game counts" and November 5th apparently didn't mean a damn thing. When there's no playoff system there should be no rematches in the National Championship especially when the losing team lost that game at home. And I actually enjoyed the first game, I couldn't care less if there wasn't a touchdown but the BCS is completely ruining college football for me, I love college sports but the fact that this f***in monstrosity is allowed to decide a National Champion is f***in garbage. And to be honest Kenny, I really don't know if I will watch the game, I just couldn't care less. I'll watch Ok State-Stanford and Oregon-Wisconsin, the rest of the BCS games are a complete snooze fest for me, just don't care.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 09:28 AM) Lawfirm's possible 3 carries in a game, Ced Ben's boating under the influence ass or Shonn Greene's awfulness?!?!?!?! Hardest f***in fantasy decision ever, someone make this f***in decision for me, f*** Damn it.

If Alabama wins, you'll have 3 teams that could make a fair argument that they're the National Champion, gotta love the BCS. Dumbest f***in thing in sports.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:10 PM) I think Luka Mirkovic is a double agent working against Northwestern. Man he sucks. That was depressing to watch. It was amazing to me that Northwestern was favored in this game and they literally had 0 shot, just outclassed, Mirkovic must have had like 932432424232 shots blocked, extreme athleticism mismatch.

Not sure I'll even watch the title game, meh.
