QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 22, 2011 -> 10:42 AM) Yes, I am aware of the month of Movember. Crosby just looks like a 10-year old who taped two skinny strands of hair under his nose. No reason to be prejudice against people who cant grow facial hair. I'm 30 and mine is even worse than his.

Meyer lands his first 5 star recruit at OSU, at least the press seems to think so.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Nov 22, 2011 -> 11:10 AM) I'm pretty sure MOST colleges treat athletes from their prized sports program more favorably than some random kid on campus. I'm not really shocked Paterno did this. I can promise you it happens everywhere. Outside of drug testing, absolutely.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 12:48 PM) Bah. 3rd most accurate kicker of all time, in Chicago, is f***ing impressive. If he keeps it up for another 6-7 years there's no reason Gould shouldn't be a candidate. No, he wont be.

4 episodes deep into Homeland. Awesome show.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Nov 20, 2011 -> 07:11 PM) Basically everything. If you load them side by side, the 4S just does everything faster. Even in official benchmarks, it's not even close. The 4S is at the top of the heap with the new Nexus phone...the iPhone 4 is like on par with phones from a year ago in comparison. http://www.anandtech.com/show/4951/iphone-...gpu-than-ipad-2 Wow, I seriously dont notice. The change wasnt nearly as noticeable to my naked eye as switching from the 3gs to the 4.

This thread needs a shower...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 10:54 AM) In other news, it is confirmed for Mannelly, out for season with ACL tear. I hope that isnt a career for him.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 20, 2011 -> 03:38 PM) Miami self imposes a bowl ban for this year. Kinda sucks right now but I'm sure this will help lessen any type of punishment the NCAA may give the school. Give up the bowl game and move onto the future. All it will do is take a bowl off of the punishment. Not a bad year to do it though, I was hoping we'd self impose one this year as well.

The D has been awful these last few games, just awful. Scott should never see the ice for a SC caliber team.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 20, 2011 -> 12:40 AM) How was it 10 wins at least? Hell, Mizzou had more of a shot at that and we have a secondary comparable to most high school secondaries. You are quoting the wrong guy but I think he figured out 10 was a bit of a stretch. With that said, the Big Ten blows this year, that BCS game isnt going to be very good with the team performing as they are right now. Second, good to see Oregon get knocked out, I'm sick of seeing them exposed in BCS games, give them a year or so and then they can come back. And third, I think I like Barkley over Luck, and I'm serious.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 19, 2011 -> 01:09 PM) If the offense was anywhere close to competent the last 4 weeks they would have won at least two of those. So if you could change an aspect of their team they might win 9 games? This Illinois team isnt a 10 win team. They had a chance to go to a very good bowl with their schedule, defense and the state of the conference, but it didnt work out.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 19, 2011 -> 11:48 AM) This team should have won a minimum of 10 games this year. You really dont believe that do you? That would make them one of 4 teams in Illinois history to win 10 games. Do you think they are that good?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 19, 2011 -> 10:02 AM) I'm guessing he probably had some heart issues or something as a result of this and while he was getting checked out they found it. Hasn't he spent a ton of time in the hospital over the last few years, did it just pop up now?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 19, 2011 -> 01:43 AM) So give the team that got their asses kicked the rematch over the team that outplayed LSU and lost in overtime. Got it. Watching Oregon lose a third straight BCS game isn't that appealing.

Thornton is being discussed, but if I had my inking I would say it was to the NL.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 04:00 PM) There is nothing wrong with that. That's how Ron Turner managed to recruit two brothers named Mendenhall and that worked out pretty well for Illinois. Zach Boren worked out pretty well for OSU, so did package deal Jordan Hall.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 03:42 PM) Which time? When he took that leave of absence, he was only gone for like 2 months. Rumor has it he had a little co-ed drama down there too. Who knows. I personally thought the guy was scum when he was at Florida, but OSU will do nothing but look for Ohio guys that will make good press.

He just found out now? Really.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 01:55 PM) It's not only faster, it's WAY faster. I tested them side by side with a 4...and it blows the 4 away. After a few months of using a 4S, try going back to a 4 and you'll notice. What tasks? I havent noticed anything moving faster at all.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 01:30 PM) Ok, thanks for the advice... Maybe I will pitch the idea to my mom when she visits in a few weeks and see if I can sucker her into paying for my new one in exchange for giving my old one to pops... Ha, nice. If I didnt swtich to Verizon I would have stayed with my 4. But Verizon has been so much more reliable and cost friendly than ATT was for me.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 01:21 PM) Even the look on Buehrles face is like "are you f***ing serious?" Maybe in reaction to the awful defensive play that probably just happened.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 01:00 PM) My dad needs a new phone, so I would just pass my iPhone4 to him, but I just wonder if I should hold out for iPhone5. Ha, I passed my 4 to my dad as well. I would hold out for the 5 unless you are switching carriers, I find basically no advantage to the 4s. The camera is a touch better, it really doesnt seem faster at all, and Siri. Oh, and speak a text or email is nice.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 01:00 PM) Gabe Carimi has been placed on IR. Only played 6 quarters. Hopefully this doesn't turn into Marc Colombo part deux. Nah, Colombo's injury was much worse.
