steve, Brian, I think I went too far tonight.

I should be drunk in about 2 hours, just thought I'd give everyone a heads up...

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Nov 4, 2011 -> 04:45 PM) The NBA doesn't have anything that matches the first two rounds of the NCAA tourney for me. Well ya, life doesn't have anything that matches the first weekend of March Madness.

Like I said, I don't really care about the Bengals sos right now, I've seen every one of their games and they're legit. No point in arguing it as I'll just let them prove it.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 4, 2011 -> 03:03 PM) The Bengals are so not legit. They have benefited from an easy schedule and will continue to do so to the tune of 9 or 10 wins. That, however, doesn't mean they'll be a good bet this weekend +3 on the road against a decent team in Tennessee. They're so very legit. Easy schedule or not, that defense is for real and AJ Green is truly a monster.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 4, 2011 -> 12:11 PM) I was listening to one of the oddsmakers on the radio this morning and they were saying the public is definitely going to drive the Saints' line up thinking they are going to come off the loss all fired up. The Bucs play them well usually...I think I'll take the 8 points. I think the Bengals are just much better than the Titans at this point. The line is saying they are two equal teams. I disagree, especially considering CJ sucks right now and the passing game has been stalled since Britt went down. I'd be all over that +3 for Cinci. The Bengals are legit.

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 4, 2011 -> 06:59 AM) Both games have their pros and their cons. I love em both. Ya, I don't think anyone in their right mind would argue that the quality of play is better than the NBA but there's absolutely nothing that beats the atmosphere and passion of the college game.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 06:43 PM) Kane + Hossa on a line. Quenneville deserves a medal and a blow job. I thought J4L didn't like hockey?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) Was the worst season of basketball in the modern era because of the lockout or because the greatest dynasty of the modern era had just ended and the league had nothing to replace it? Like the Spurs glory years that started that year?

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 11:21 AM) I think I'd rather them wear the nut huggers of yesterday than the "shorts" that go halfway down their calf that some teams wear now. Basically, some teams wear baggy capri pants. Know any guy that looks good in capris? lol Ya, I think I'll stick with the baggy shorts...

QUOTE (bulokis @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 11:37 AM) Pacquiao vs Mayweather in May 2012? I'll believe it when I see it but here's hoping...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 07:53 AM) Northern State 53, Butler 50 Arizona lost to Seattle Pacific last weekend as well, it happens.

I'm more excited for this LSU-Alabama game than I have been for the last few Superbowls and the last few NC's in college football. Can't wait.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 11:02 PM) How many players from the 2004 champs did Theo actually acquire himself? Of the players Theo did trade for, how many of the prospects were drafted by the previous regime? How many of Theo's best players were proven roiders? Just off the top of my head, Schilling, Foulke and the Nomar trade were pretty huge in the grand picture of that championship No idea, if he used them to acquire the correct talent than good for him. And this 3rd point really means nothing.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 07:58 PM) Bears +8 right now. I might have to actually bet them. Yeesh. I like the Eagles a lot too but that's a ton of points.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 07:40 PM) How many gms have had that kind of money and not won at least 1 ws? How many have won 2 in that time frame?

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 07:01 PM) That's a thoughtless and empty ass reply. Try backing it up. Because there's a ton of gm's with a lot of money that have never done anything. Not to mention the great drafting and development that Theo has been apart of with the Sawx. High payroll or not, the guy won 2 World Series and went to the playoffs 6 out of 9 years, to say that half the gm's in baseball could have done that when a lot of other teams in the Red Sox payroll vicinity were having trouble just making the playoffs is indeed absurd. And for the record, I don't think Theo is the best gm in baseball and I certainly don't believe that him being the president of that team ensures any World Series wins or even playoff series victories but Cubs fans have every right to be thrilled just as the media has every reason to be fascinated with the story.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 07:10 PM) So an awkward situation has arisen at work where one of our office people hasn't talked to me since last Friday because I believe he thinks I banged one of his assistants. My job and all of that are in no danger, so it'll be interesting to see where this goes. Haha, that's awesome.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 02:55 PM) That's right Jim Margalus from Sox Machine is running SSS, brain fart. And he's the best Sox writer out there, professional or otherwise.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 05:09 PM) How many other GMs could have performed the "miracles" that Epstein performed with that payroll? I bet more than half of them. That's really an absurd assumption.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 04:14 PM) Eh... I'm not sold on Theo Epstein and his buddies like everyone else. He has to show me what he can do without having the 2nd biggest payroll in the MLB every season. And it's not like I'm a Cub hater. I just don't see the fascination with this guy. I say that KW will win another ring with the White Sox before Epstein ever wins one on the northside. 2nd biggest payroll or not he's been head of the best organization in baseball since his arrival, that's the fascination.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 04:41 PM) Kate Beckinsale was really hot about 5-7 years ago. Not sure what about her has changed since...seems she's had some plastic surgery work done. Something just seems artificial about her appearance now, hard to put a finger on it. Really? I feel like she doesn't age at all, she's f***in perfect imo.

30 for 30's are the only good thing ESPN has left. I didn't see this one yet but heard great things, going to watch it tonight.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 09:03 AM) Samuel L. Jackson?! He's in every movie. -1 for messing up the quote.

Ya, she's pretty nasty.
