Every packer fan I spoke to at the airport last night had them scoring over 24 points.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 22, 2011 -> 06:55 PM) This is laughable. Anyways, props to Ohio State. They won a decent game for the first time since November, although I expect to be the case further on. You are aware they beat the Gophers who are higher ranked than Ill in Jan right?

QUOTE (hitlesswonder @ Jan 22, 2011 -> 04:36 PM) Was there ever any doubt that it was Sullinger? And by the way, who ever said McCamey was the best PG in the Big Ten...well, he's not in the top 3 (I'd take Lucas, Taylor and Battle first). Craft outplayed him today. A page back it was McCamey

So is it a little clearer who the best player in the Big Ten is?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 07:37 AM) "You've got to watch people's legs. I know guys want to hustle and everything but we all want to play and provide for our families and have a job." Oh please. I NEVER want to hear a "provide for my family" excuse from ANYONE making over $100,000. So, Bosh is really saying no one should hustle on the basketball court. It was a scramble for a loose ball, I guess Omer shouldnt have dove because Bosh's legs are so valuable? What a p****.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 09:21 AM) I've always heard that a lot of the aftermarket NAV systems are better and cheaper than the factory ones. Not talking about the portable units like Garmin, but in-dash receivers, Pioneer etc. Define better. All of the cars I have shopped usually come with NAV and if its an option you usually get a much better technology package such as an upgraded sound system, voice control and bluetooth. If you added all of those aftermarket they could be of similar cost and you usually dont have the same OEM look as you have to jam in something that wasnt designed specifically for your car. My new jeep actually has a SAT-based Garmin system as its NAV interface. Its not my favorite as I think the infiniti system was a bit better, but it still works quite well and I dont have to worry about someone smashing up my windows to steal it.

Was this an idea posted by someone from a yanks board? Because thats about how bats*** crazy it is.

Another poorly officiated game in the Big Ten. When is this going to be addressed? I didnt watch the NU-MSU game, but the ILL and the OSU game were laughable at times.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 14, 2011 -> 03:00 PM) On a random sidenote, probably the coolest feature I've had on a car in years is bluetooth. My old car was just before the generation of vehicles that came with it standard (2005) and having it while talking on the phone for work/personal use is just amazing convenient. I don't use a lot of the fancy features that come with it (all of the voice dialing and stuff) but either way it works pretty cool. Plus I love the whole streaming pandora through bluetooth via the radio. Stuff I'm less than intrigued about on my new car: XM - I just can't get all that into it whenever I use it. After my free trial I'm pretty sure I won't be signing up. I could see using it if you live in areas without an ample amount of stations, but where I am there are just a lot of great options on free radio. I wouldn't know about navigation because I refuse to pay like 2600 dollars for a navigation package when all of the garmins, etc, are cheap, plus a lot of PDA's have turn by turn directions for free. Sirius/XM dominates regular radio and its not even close. Free radio is 50 percent advertising. Sat radio is also a much higher quality signal and is almost CD quality. You have a million more options for songs to listen to and it has a ridiculous amount of talk radio that free local AM stations cannot touch. I have plenty of options in Chicago and I listen to free radio sometimes, but it doesnt have nearly as many options as SAT and I always find myself going back to the sat setting no matter what. As for OEM navigation, I would rather not carry a handheld garmin with me at all times, if you leave it in your car in Chicago, your window will be broken within the hour. If you are looking at your phone for directions and a cop sees you, you will be pulled over. I like to be able to voice command my nav with where i want to go so I can stay focused on the road and I also like the XM traffic that it provides. I literally wouldnt buy a car without factory nav in it.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 13, 2011 -> 12:54 PM) Still loving it, Rock? Yeah, its awesome

2011 Jeep Grand cherokee Overland.

Still perfect on the season. Free throw shooting may be the undoing of the Buckeyes. The UM fans chanting Brady Hoke kinda shows how far the programs have fallen at UM.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 12, 2011 -> 04:24 PM) Welcome to IU basketball everybody! At least the blonde had a hot ass.

All the bball highlights are from before these kids were born.

Iphone users that switch are going to complain about how slow it is, also the voice/data thing is an issue if you use your phone as a mobile hot spot and actually want to make calls at the same time, which for alot of traveling workers is going to be an issue. Supposedly Apple is going to release a dual carrier 4G phone in their next real release.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) anyone find a site to stream the big ten network online? i'd sure love to watch the penn st - illinois game..... Their site streams games.

I love Stacey King.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) True, thats all I remember about his days with the Cubs too, and I remember all Cubs fans f***ing hated him. I hope he does well, but I won't be expecting the best. I was in a bar watching a Cubs/Sox game I believe and some Cubs schmo turned around and said "Will Ohman is STRAIGHT DEALIN" BOOM someone hits a dinger off of him. From that day we've always calling him straight dealin.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 10, 2011 -> 12:43 PM) We actually had a discussion about you. We weren't surprised that the others who mentioned that they'd be there didn't show up, but we all were surprised that you didn't keep to your word I had a valid excuse, as you can tell in the other thread, I was out buying a car....on 177th and torrance.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 05:35 PM) i think im going to wait until a 4G compatible iphone comes out before deciding to make any kind of carrier switch at this time. Smart move. I was thinking the same thing. I was contemplating the switch until I heard it was still CDMA.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 03:41 PM) I think it also helped both OSU and Auburn that they had over a month to prepare for Oregon's offense. If you have to face them with only a weak to prepare those games might go differently. I don't think Oregon score at will, but I doubt they get held to 17 or 19 pts which is one of the major problems with the BCS. They also get a month to plan for the defenses they are facing as well though.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 05:22 PM) Hoke has done a really nice job at San Diego State. It's not a sexy hire but I think it will be a good one. Now Hoke needs to find a QB since it sounds like Robinson has asked and gotten a release from Michigan. I've thought that there was more talent behind Robinson anyway in Devin Gardner, he is ridiculously talented.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 02:43 PM) lol. I'm trying to be a nicer/kinder J4L, but thanks for saying that for me. I do not like Ohman at all. I'll support him, obviously, because he's a White Sox. But I don't like him. Every time he came into the game for the Cubs I knew something bad was going to happen. I would rather have the ghost of Neal Cotts's arm than Will Ohman.

Ohman is a f***ing gas can. You will all learn to hate him.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 10:30 AM) We'll see how reliable Verizon's network is after they add a trillion people. Its not even going to be on their good 3G network, its on their EV-DO network. That seems ass backward to me.
