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.

Trading one of our starters for a reliever is just a horrendous idea at the moment.

Confidence picks this week, they're an extra point since it's the 2nd round: Bears: 5 Falcons: 4 Jets: 3 Steelers: 2

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.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 02:07 PM) Someone I know just posted this to facebook: ‎ Logged on to facebook and saw that posted twice. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 05:26 PM) I am so tired of people who haven't cared about the Bears all year posting on FB how excited they are that they got a free ticket to Sunday's game. And yes, it's sour grapes. QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) I know how you feel. These girls in their twenties at work are all excited about going. 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.

Add me to the list that loves what the A's did this offseason.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 08:22 AM) Right now, Kevin Love is a better basketball player than Blake Griffin. And considering Love is less than a year older than him... Eh, it's really f'n close.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) Maybe so, but 20 years from now when I think back to that play or any defensive play for that matter, I won't remember that an outfielder made a bad read on a ball initially or an infielder took a bad first step, I'll remember being wowed watching it take place. The Buehrle and Iguchi plays will always be the ones I recall first. Uribe made a play that happened to take place on the highest of stages- thats why that one will be special for me. Greatest Sox pickoff? Gotta be Buehrle against Sosa and the Rangers in 2007. The one hitter standing between Buehrle being the only pitcher to throw two perfect games was Chicago's beloved assclown, Sammy Sosa. Pick off and f*** you have the same number of letters. Obviously everyone is entitled to their opinion and I know I'm in the minority on this one but to me Tad's play is one of the more overrated plays I've ever seen. Anyways, I didn't see the count down but this to me is the best defensive play ever, first play shown after the backflip: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/1806999/5964629

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 04:47 PM) Actually that play by Iguchi was pretty special The "specialness" of it was entirely brought on by himself. It was kind of like an outfielder getting a bad jump on a ball only to make up for it with a diving catch. It really should have been a routine play but he made it into something that looked better than it really was because he stumbled over himself.

QUOTE (Big Daddy Kool @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) From Cowley's twitter feed: Gordon said that Alexei looked bigger and definitely added some muscle - J.J. Walker no more. Hopefully the added weight doesn't mess with his range at ss.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 04:14 PM) It was amazing. 1.7 is a terrific number.

Uribe's play should definitely be on there given the situation. Iguchi's play is still one of the more overrated plays of all time imo.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 04:00 PM) Rose has jumped ahead of Rondo for All-star game starting PG at the moment. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=6018863 I think Rondo is fantastic [i know we're supposed to hate him. But talent is talent]. But take Rose off the Bulls and you're looking at a slightly better version of the Cavs. Not that, that should mean much when discussing who should start in an all-star game. We can still hate him and admit that he's a fantastic basketball player because he certainly is. That being said, he's just not as good or as valuable as Derrick Rose.

2009 Pontiac G5 which I got after my Cobalt ended up under a semi. Really do like the car though I wish it was better in the snow.

Seck who has been by far our best player all season has 18 points and 17 rebounds tonight and gets thrown under the bus by Lowery during the post game show. Diamond Taylor who is one of the few players on this team with actual talent gets a DNP coaches decision tonight because we have to play Lowery's f***in cousin and a JC transfer that's complete f***in garbage the whole f***IN GAME. I hate our coach, I hate him so f***in much.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 12, 2011 -> 06:02 PM) He's just beating Ozzie down there... Don't worry, when we trade Ozzie, it's going to be for Wise not Mike Stanton.

QUOTE (Charlie Haeger's Knuckles @ Jan 12, 2011 -> 02:55 PM) Good thing the Red's catcher knew to pull full guard. That's Paul Wilson actually and his right leg is under Farnsworth's legs so he's not in full guard.

QUOTE (Pale Sox @ Jan 12, 2011 -> 03:31 PM) "I have the ultimate respect for White Sox fans. They were as miserable as the Cubs and Red Sox fans ever were but always had the good decency to keep it to themselves. And when they finally won the World Series, they celebrated without annoying every other fan in the country." - Jim Caple from his latest article updating the team misery indexes. Put this quote in my sig. That's seriously awesome!

Maybe the Rays plan on having a lot of bench clearing brawls this year so they want Kyle around. Otherwise not sure.
