QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 19, 2011 -> 01:01 PM) That is the best question of all. I'd say a much better question is whether he has the control of that country's military.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 19, 2011 -> 12:52 PM) Am I mistaken or did Volquez blow out his arm a few years ago He was about 24 months from the surgery at the end of 2011, so it's certainly plausible that it hadn't recovered fully.

Might not want to try getting to Louisville from Indiana these days.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Dec 19, 2011 -> 12:14 PM) lol at those who said we'd go 4-2 or 3-3 with Hanie, how 'bout 0-6? Will you give that same LOL to everyone who wanted to sign Forte to a big contract because he never got hurt? That 4-2 or 3-3 was predicated on not losing the RB who was having an MVP level season himself.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 19, 2011 -> 09:46 AM) Volquez has had ONE good season out of what, 6 or 7? baseball is full of guys who were a flash in the pan and fizzled out. Remember how good Garland was one year? Remember how good Loaiza was one year? Remember how good Contreras was one year? Well, for Garland, the advanced stats say that he wasn't incredibly good one year, he was a solid pitcher for 3 years, with above average years before and after that, before starting to slow down last year. For Loaiza...there may have been some issues with the...chemistry.

Iffy fit for them since he'd have to play defense...but yeah, they kinda need a bat not named Justin.

I really wish I'd carried that 2.

PPP has Newt falling into 3rd in Iowa, behind Paul and Mittens. Newt is also scrambling to get himself on the ballot in Virginia, facing a 3 day deadine for a ton of signatures.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 09:11 PM) There are still plenty of teams out there that need good SP... why all the panic?? Reds aren't the only team worth dealing with Because the Reds were clearly one team willing to overpay for that SP.

One of my medically inclined friends wrote this.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 08:51 PM) It still can only help KW get a better deal. Only way I see it could have hurt his position is if they would have dealt Latos for a nothing type package.... It can hurt also, can't just "Only help." Took a team off of the list as a possible trade partner, removed talent that could have come back to the Sox. It remains to be seen if it will help or hurt.

I want someone to blame all those Denver fumbles on Jesus/God/The Holy Spirit.

18 point lead for the Pats at the end of the 3rd. Come on NE, they're going to make a push on this next drive.

Baron Davis to the Knicks

A 7 year old would have 60 yards running against this Patriots D.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 04:26 PM) Except a QB named Hanie hasnt been able to hit the checkdown option. At all. None of the checkdown options the Bears have right now are as good with the hands as Forte is.

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 04:24 PM) Have to be able to hit him in the flat to be useful. Past few weeks he has shown he can't consistently make that throw. He's awful. Don't think any personnel would have made him passable. He's only a notch better than Todd Collins/Jonathan Quinn He wouldn't even need to be "Passable" to have come out with wins in some of these games.

Patriot D looks pathetic on the first drive.

GAO is still pissed off about that 2003 Medicare budget evaluation.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 04:18 PM) I think they thought they could ride Forte after Cutler went down, but once he got hurt too I didnt hear many people thinking they were going to do much. especially for a QB like hanie...Forte would be a godsend. Stellar checkdown option would cut down on mistakes everywhere...simplifies the reeds, you take 1 look, if it's not there, you throw it near Forte's knees. Oh, and having any RB other than Barber would have won the game last week.

Well, now to cheer wholeheartedly for the Patriots.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 04:04 PM) Hope they don't run oob What are you nuts? This Chiefs coach has been here for a week, it shoudln't take more than a day or two to remind the RB's of that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 04:03 PM) Chiefs need about 6 yards to ice the game. And they got about 15. Ballgame. 13-1 for GB, 1-13 for Indy.
