QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 11, 2013 -> 11:33 AM) At least he is smart enough to recognize what a problem he is for a coaching staff to deal with...you want to talk about a "coach killer." It is good that the new GM isnt going for the PR stunt instead of trying to win more games. I still think there is a good shot Tebow ends up in the CFL if he thinks he is a starting QB. I am sure there are plenty of teams out there willing to give him the second QB job/wildcat position, but Tebow really didnt seem to embrace that job with the Jets.

QUOTE (Lamar Johnson 23 @ Jan 11, 2013 -> 09:17 AM) It's pretty sad that as Sox fans, these are the names we're supposed to get excited about. Dodgers fan: Hey! We signed Greinke! Angels fan: So what? We got Hamilton. Bluejays fan: We traded for Josh Johnson, Buehrle, Jose Reyes and traded for RA Dickey White Sox fan: We re-signed Peavy, and signed Keppinger, Josh Bell, Brian Anderson, Trancoso, Gartrell, etc., Yep...(cricket sounds) you whine too much

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 8, 2013 -> 10:19 AM) The Rock needs to stay away from the ball jokes and stick to being semi serious. Obviously comedy is part of his thing but he's better than the crap he's come with against Cena and now Punk. Punk was absolutely epic last night. I'm willing to give rock a pass due to a little bit of ring mic rust.

Official 2012-2013 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Jan 8, 2013 -> 12:48 PM) I don't agree with this at all. 16 teams would basically mean any major conference team with two losses or fewer gets in (Depending on eligibility rules of course. The SEC would demand no limit while everyone else would want a maximum). So many of the games that mattered this year would become meaningless because teams were already solidly in the field. Alabama and Georgia both make it, Oregon and K-State are both in even with a loss, the ND/Pitt game wouldn't have had nearly as dire consequences, ect. The only games that would REALLY impact the playoffs would be championship games in single-bid conferences. That's why I really don't want it getting bigger than 8 teams. You still have to have a pretty solid year to make the top-8, if you go much further than that you start getting teams that had disappointing seasons by their standards like LSU and FSU in the field when they didn't do a whole lot to really earn it. Thats fine, I enjoy tournament conditions and I see this as a good thing where some more teams are involved. In all of the major sports we watch, the regular seasons matter, whether it is for merely getting into the playoffs at all or for getting seeded into a favorable matchup. These Upper level teams, the Alabamas, Georgias, Oregons are going to want to make sure they have a matchup that is best for them, or even a bye week. Whatever comes in the playoff format will be more appealing to me than the current system, so I am happy either way.

QUOTE (SexiAlexei @ Jan 8, 2013 -> 12:02 PM) This is my biggest fear for college football, and the reason I am anti playoffs. I see this quickly expanding past 8 teams. The larger the playoff pool, the less the regular season games mean. I love that every game is critical to the success of your season, and if there's an 8, or 16 team playoff, that doesn't matter nearly as much. I think the larger the playoff pool, the more important the regular season is. The jockeying for playoff position will be huge, one small mistep during the year and you could be relegated to a "meaningless" one bowl game. Meaningless is relative of course.

I have a feeling that once the playoff starts, and they see the interest level and money rolling in, they will be leaping over each other to get a larger playoff in place.

Bigg is tweeting that he thinks the Singletary interview is a favor to the McCaskey family. Lets hope that is the case, because he was a mildly insane head coach.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 7, 2013 -> 10:47 AM) I don't think this is really a fair comparison...Cutler was playing, then suddenly he was not. He was sort of standing around on the sideline pouting. The injury was really not noticed at the time it occurred, so no one knew what was going on. We didn't really see him attempt to play on it and realize he was unable to. RGIII, on the other hand, clearly was deteriorating very quickly. He went from limited but still capable, to almost useless right before everyone's eyes. Everyone could tell that he was ineffective because of the injury. Everyone but Mike Shanahan, apparently. Hurt, not injured
