QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 04:25 PM) To be fair, Row could have lined up as QB against Carolina and won. Well thank you. I did play qb on my flag football team junior year of high school.

Albert Pujols' extension - Cards fail to extend by deadline
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 12:15 PM) Yes. Albert Pujols is worth more in revenue to the Cardinals than to any other team, Yankees included. Is he though? This argument obviously makes sense for a lot of players but I don't think Pujols is one of them.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 11:35 AM) The Bears had the same issue. They didnt have Cutler for Carolina, and lets be honest, Cutler wasnt there for the Giants after the second sack Eh that's a fair point on the Carolina game, I had completely forgotten about that to be honest.

Also have to remember that GB was with out Rodgers for more than a game and a half. Decent chance they would have finished 12 and 4 if he played every game. Anyways, should be a great game, I'd give the Packers a bit of an edge but I certainly wouldn't be shocked if the Bears win this one.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 08:44 PM) I see a clear separation between the Bulls and Miami/Boston/Orlando. It doesn't mean I don't think we can't get there, but I see the Bulls a tier below that group. Our guard play, minus Rose, is going to hold us back. Completely disagree. I still think some of our own fans severely underestimate this team. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Full strength in the playoffs, that Miami back court is going to kill the Bulls. I wouldn't be surprised at a sweep. No chance.

47 and 14 for Blake with 40 seconds left. Maybe he can take off from beyond the arc and dunk in a 3 for 50!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 02:40 PM) I think Fox has to be thrilled with the GB/Chicago matchup, but I think most of the rest of the country would have liked to see someone other than the Bears in the NFC title game. Maybe New Orleans-Packers or Philly-New Orleans. As for CBS, I am sure they knew coming in to the playoffs that any matchup, perhaps with the exception of one with the Chiefs involved, was going to be a solid one. That being said, I'm pretty sure they would have rather had New England or Indianapolis involved somehow. As much as the Jets are entertaining, I don't think they bring in the casual fan the way Peyton Manning and Tom Brady can. Right on point with everything here.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 02:43 PM) And only one turnover. Great great game. Korver with a terrific game, too. And Deng continues to make people eat their words about his salary. He is a great offensive player and very very good on D. Rudy Gay just got owned. Today was the most impressed I've been with Deng all season. He was just absolutely terrific overall today. Anywho, I just want this damn team to get fully healthy. I can't wait to see our actual team out there at some point.

What Kind of Car Do You Drive?
So my dad just got my step mom a 2011 Buick Regal(which is gorgeous btw), I can't even say he bought it because he ended up getting a check from the dealership with the trade in of our 2010 Malibu. Crazyness. He also has a 2011 Corvette Z06 which I believe he's had for about 5 months now, nicest kept car you'll ever see. Pretty sure that thing has less than 50 miles on it though and that's not an exaggeration. He's a nut job when it comes to cars.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) I agree, just thought it was a little stretch to say the Jets dont really have a chance against the Steelers. Agreed. As long as Sanchez doesn't throw the game away they can beat anyone. I like the Steelers in this one though, thought they've been the best team in the league all season long. Funny though, looking back on my preseason predictions, I actually had the Jets and the Packers playing in the super bowl. If that ends up happening, I'm going to be quite pissed that I didn't put money on it!

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 07:19 PM) I mean, was it really that long ago that Rodgers only put up 10 points in Lambeau? Ha absolutely not. And I've obviously been wrong a lot but I see Rodgers having a great game next weekend.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 04:27 PM) Once again, FX horribly mis-marketed it, and I'm already hooked. The only reason I know about it is because I always watch "It's always Sunny" and "The League" on demand and "Lights Out" is very well marketed there.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 08:17 PM) wonder what kind of game Rodgers will have against our pass defense next week A good one. Seriously, I've underrated the Bears all season but Aaron Rodgers is just a f***in stud, I can't see even a defense as good as the Bears slowing him down right now.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 05:58 PM) Are we gonna have to admit that Rowand was right? Ugh You're my good luck charm. The two times you've called me out on a prediction(this one and Florida-OSU football NC game a few years back) I've had the correct results. That being said, I was completely wrong on the Falcons this week. Solid week for me in my playoff pool though, 3-1, keeps me in 2nd place overall and only one point behind the leader.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 15, 2011 -> 02:08 PM) Can you spell out how the Jets are going to hang with the Pats on the field? I don't doubt you could be right, I'm just genuinely curious. Same basic way they hung with the Colts. Run the ball down their throats and play great defense. I've been higher on the Jets all season than most so I certainly know this isn't going to a popular pick but I really believe they're going to knock off NE tomorrow. I also still believe the Pats have a lot of flaws that can be exposed even though they pretty much beat the crap out of everyone in the regular season. We'll obviously find out tomorrow but I really do expect to see the Jets win a close one.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 15, 2011 -> 01:54 PM) Bart Scott physically threatens Wes Welker for his foot comments. If there is a team that has a mental edge in this game, it is certainly the Patriots. They are just ultra confident and calm and cool. The Jets are on the defensive and making stupid statements and talking a ridiculous amount of trash. I see the Pats winning by 17. Jets by a fg or so.

Idea: Trade Jackson for Joba
Trading one of our starters for a reliever is just a horrendous idea at the moment.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 05:36 PM) I'd take the guy that averages the same number of points, THREE more rebounds a game and is a far better shooter. I'm not saying Griffin isn't good, but Love is simply better. Less Sportscenter highlights, but that doesn't make him a worse player. And for what it's worth, Griffin is just as bad defensively as Love is. It obviously depends on how you value those things, but let's not pretend Griffin is this defensive stud while Love makes his team suddenly give up thousands of points per game. EDIT: Of course, the site I just linked to thinks Corey Brewer and Wes Johnson are better than Kevin Love. So it's obviously full of s***. Love averages 3 more rebounds a game but Griffin basically does everything else better. Like I said, it's really freakin close if you're just looking at this season alone. If you're building a team and you need to pick one of them, it's a no brainer, you're taking Mr. Griffin.

I'm sure they will have facebook pics of themselves with the game going on behind them. Ditto. I couldn't care less but the bandwagon is definitely overflowing right now.
