QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 15, 2012 -> 05:53 PM) Hopefully this is a less angry version of JimH. *flips cap backwards* lets do this

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 15, 2012 -> 11:41 AM) I agree, which is why I asked certain people to stop sniping and grow up. Youd get real tired if a few people came to every thread you posted in and tried to attack you. It especially gets old when they are admin and no one even cares. As for 3-4, its unlikely in run downs, but I do think the Bears may employ more of a "walk around" defense on pass downs. I just cant see Lovie giving up his entire scheme on rush downs. OMG Badger, is anyone allowed to argue with you, or are you the only one allowed to initiate long winded ridiculous arguments? You said I was following you around sniping at you, after a 3 comment back and forth over something that i disputed. Get a grip man, wtf. I post as a member, just because it says admin underneath my name doesnt mean I cant argue with the rest of you. You are acting like I am insulting your heritage here because I said your initial post wasnt correct.

SMH. back to your regularly scheduled NFL talk. nothing to see here

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 15, 2012 -> 11:25 AM) I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure Kyle was being sarcastic. moi? *points to self*

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:04 PM) Maybe, but if Jerry and the investors were against it, they'd prolly tell Kenny and he'd put a stop to it.I'm really down on Viciedo. Just another Sox off to a slow start in his career. I guess it's natural (look at KC's Hosmer now sucking) but it is disappointing that Tank sucks so far. LMAO what? You think Jerry and his investors make on-field decisions?

Now, the real issue: what to do with an unhappy Forte

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 15, 2012 -> 09:27 AM) Dude gets handed Chris Paul and now he thinks he's Phil Jackson, apparently. Dude got handed Rose and couldnt figure him out. I love the "History speaks for itself" comment about the Clippers. Apparently he never heard about how Sterling abused Elgin Baylor

"All that (expletive) that I had to deal with John and everything, it was a total cluster(expletive)," said Del Negro, who coached the Bulls from 2008-10. "Listen, I understand the business: I hadn't coached before, and my first job was in Chicago, where I had absolutely no (management) support. Then I came to this position, where history spoke for itself. But I knew it was important to keep working at the craft." -Vinny Del Negro

I would wait until Viciedo has a little extended period of success before poking fun at Marty. Tank really hasnt done too much yet

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 15, 2012 -> 08:05 AM) Welcome to Badger land. On your right is Patrick Kane passed out. LMAO. On your left is the girl he tried to "Wayne Brady chokeab****"

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 15, 2012 -> 07:10 AM) KyYlE - You said "the Bears historically do not pay coaches top dollar." Badger - Thats not what I said, I said: "The Bears arent well known for paying top dollar for coaches." Holy s***, dude, that's just beyond stupid to claim those statements mean something different. Its fine, i created a straw man and lit it on fire. No biggie. Lovie gets paid very well, is my total point. If the Bears brass wanted to do a massive upheaval and hire Cowher, I wouldnt think that money would be an issue. The Bears get a lot of flak from fans for being cheapskates, but really that era is long gone. There are a lot of hefty contracts on the Bears bill nowadays. Now, whether they spent that money smartly is a completely different argument

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 15, 2012 -> 06:52 AM) Yesterday's Dunn bobblehead & the Peavy one are outstanding. Must have. Go Sox, good work Q! Nothing compared to Dunn's Cincinatti Reds bobblehead where he is wearing a miami vice suit http://wifasso.com/Bobbles/2008.htm Go Sox!

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:42 PM) Thats not what I said, I said: So you bring up 1 coach, who they paid well for half of his tenure. That doesnt exactly disprove my point. I cant even believe that anyone would argue this. You arent disproving my point, you are trying to bring 1 outlier and act as if I said: The Bears have never paid top dollar for a coach See the difference? As for your crying comment, last I checked I never have asked anyone to fight my battles. Ill just wait over here for you to prove that the Bears: "ARE WELL KNOWN FOR PAYING TOP DOLLAR FOR COACHES", because unless you can disprove that, you are just wasting everyone's time. Your not even arguing semantics well, because my quote is still clearly true, you just tried to create a strawman, that the Bears never have paid top dollar, which wasnt what I said. badger, you sir are hilarious. have a good day.

John Danks! What? Nobody is with me?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:59 PM) There's got to be something physically wrong with Danks. This season is going to be a long one, revolving door from AA/AAA to Chicago all season long for pitching tryouts. Nothing looks physically wrong. The stuff is the same, he just sucks

See balta? I knew Danks would give it right back. He just needed some time. Ahhhhhh money well spent, Danks

LolDanks

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:39 PM) Danks tried hard but just couldn't do it. The ump was all that stood in Danks way

QUOTE (Baron @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:37 PM) So Morel one of the worst hitters in baseball doesnt make a play on defense....good news everyone Come on, he was pulled in and the ball was rocketed past him. That is a tough play for anyone, and you certainly aren't guaranteed the out even if he comes up with it since Jackson is running.

This is where Danks hands those runs right back

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 14, 2012 -> 07:26 PM) now up to .125 on the year vs. LHP The platoon man still hitting .000, no?

JDINA f***ING A

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 14, 2012 -> 06:18 PM) You mean if you take 1 sentence and then ignore the explanation of the statement. I dont do that. I always let people explain their position if the first statement is nothing more than a clearly generalized statement that most people would agree is true. Its not like my first statement is in conflict with my explanation, you merely are hanging your hat on an outlier, where as I was making a more general comment on the entire Bears coaching history. The Bears historically do not pay new coaches well. Lovie Smith was one of the lowest paid coaches. The Bears have never hired a big name coach to start. In fact since as far back as Im willing to go (Jack Pardee), the Bears have not hired any coach who had already coached in the NFL, all of their coaches were previously assistants, being given their first NFL head coaching chance, Armstrong, Ditka, Dave Wannstedt, Dick Jauron, Lovie Smith. So I dont get what point you are trying to make, other than you seem to be following me around trying to snipe about nothing. The Bears historically do not spend a lot of money on new coaches, I cant find one example to go against this, which was the point about Cowher. It could happen, its just something that has never happened in my life time. I cant believe anyone even wants to argue this. Oh stop crying Badger, I am hardly following you around. You said the Bears historically do not pay coaches top dollar. If you had originally said they dont pay new coaches well, I would absolutely agree with that, because the Bears do not hire coaches that have HC experience, therefore they can get away with paying them less than most coaches in the NFL. But the Bears pay Lovie very well, so it isnt as if they are cheapskates across the board. Lovie proved to them that he could win, and he was rewarded with a very lucrative contract that placed him in the upper echelon of coaches in terms of contract. if Cowher somehow came to the Bears, it would be a different animal altogether in two ways, 1) he has a long history of winning as a head coach, and 2) he will command a very large paycheck

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 14, 2012 -> 04:51 PM) That means something other than a PED right? So he's a #1 draft pick of the Rays who is struggling because of a drug problem? For God's sake, grab this guy if he's ever available in the rule 5 and make him hang out with Floyd or Humber or someone like that. Yes, not a PED. Weed, coke, meth. He was doing something. And yea, another #1 Rays pick struggling with drugs.
