this means nothing for flowers IMO...the organization is still comitted to AJ, and I dont think the organization wants flowers to play once every 5 days.......Flowers should start the season at AAA probably anyways.....they need a backup and blanco fits perfectly

miguel cabrera has been a better hitter over the course of their two careers yes. that said...what matters most is what they will do over the next 5, not what they did over the last 2 or the last 5 or whatever. Given the fact that Gonzalez is left handed, a GG defender, doesn't have enormous question marks about his conditioning and commitment (ie getting hammered and driving home at 4 in the morning to fight with your wife the dya before your teams biggest game) and has a ridiculously reasonable contract for a couple years ....id prefer gonzalez over cabrera just about any day of the week You have to remember how incredibly talented gonzalez is ...what he is doing now is what everyone expected him to do when Florida made him the #1 overall pick... bottom line is they are both tremendous, tremendous players and are enormous impact MVP type bats in any lineup

just an absolutely epic curb last night .....its so cool seeing jerry and george back at it.....the Itoilet was absolutely brilliant....my girlfriend had that app on her phone like 6 months ago and i told her all she really needed was costanza

one thing is for damn sure about this bulls team is that they are SIGNIFICANTLY better defensively this year than they were last year....and i don't think its coincidental to the fact that Gordon is gone, Deng is back and healthy, and Hinrich is back and healthy...theyve faced a difficult schedule with lots of big time scorers (James, Wade, Anthony, Spurs trio) and have only really looked bad against the celtics on the road, and have held their own for the most part

Watching this MNF game has absolutely removed the tiny 0.1% doubt in my mind about the cutler orton deal....Orton absolutely can't do ANYTHING under pressure....he'd get murdered with this Oline we have

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Nov 9, 2009 -> 10:43 AM) Can someone get me the e-mails to Bill Cowher, Mike Holmgren, and Mike Shanahan? I need to recruit a new Bears head coach. Lovie needs to go. Lovie is absoultely getting railed on talk radio so far today...rightfully so...

a 26 year old catcher with a .287 obp in AAA last year and a 24 year old failed first rounder who barely breaks 90 mph and had a 4.58 ERA for a guy with a .372 obp last year (.363 career) with 51 extra base hits? sure sign me up...maybe toronto will throw in halladay too

QUOTE (MattZakrowski @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 03:35 PM) Jay Cutler is so damn good. yeah he really is...especially when we aren't putting the reins on him and allowing him to open it up a bit.... i know orton has won in denver, but IMO this team would probably be significantly worse with im at qb

the punter! aikman with a terrific point ...the deficiencies at QB have masked the other problems on this bears team in the last year or two

olsen was being tackled as he tried to catch that ball...thats a horrendous call

LOL at this team

the next time we get a jam on a WR at the line will be the first

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 03:30 PM) I think the bigger debate with the whole coaching debate is the candidates that will be available this off-season. It's a HOF class to chose from. It's always been the Bears M.O. to not spend a ton of money on a coach,instead just promote a coordinator, but I would hope that would change. unfortunately i think the only thing less likely than the bears firing lovie and paying out the remaining 2 years and 5 mil per, is firing lovie and paying out the 2 years at 5 mil while hiring a high profile, expensive HOF type head coach like cowher, shanahan or holmgren

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 02:05 PM) This is the worst defensive performance I can ever recall by the Bears. the bengals game was worse

Lovie's job HAS to questioned after this debacle

good lord...this offense makes a few good plays, then a negative play puts them in a huge hole....arizona blitzes, we can't protect and cutler is either sacked or has to get rid of the ball quickly....so predictable

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 01:53 PM) Time for a whole new coaching staff. this really has to happen. This is lovie's D. he ran rivera out to implement his own system. It didn't work. The D is so bad...thank god we at least have a few offensive weapons to build around going forward

this defense is terrible

HOW THE f*** DO YOU NOT COVER LARRY FITZGERALD ON THIRD AND 5

the defensive ends on this team are horrendously overrated

this is the downfield passing we should have been seeing all year from Cutler...hopefully Turner is finally catching on

its going to be a really long game....warner will pick this team apart if they sit back in the cover 2....and when we blitz we aren't getting to the qb, and we certainly can't afford to play man on those receivers with no pressure on the qb

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 04:00 PM) There goes Iowa's bid at the National Championship. thank god, as a big ten fan i can't take another embarasment in a high profile game

lebron with the "what the hell, i'm lebron james how is that not a foul" look on his face....great D by noah

what the hell?!?! dengs shot hit the rim, yet they call the 24 second violation...
