That 3 point attempt just made me sick. Something tells me that ball was supposed to move around a little bit more than it did and Salmons took it upon himself.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Dec 8, 2009 -> 07:42 PM) I wouldn't mind Bradley on the Sox. I actually think Bradley is like Iverson in that he has to feel like he's wanted and that he's one of the guys. The Cubs, almost from the get-go, made him feel like an outcast. When he got off to the slow start, that made it even worse because the fans got on him and for a black male in the Wrigley OF, that's not a good sign. I'm not saying all their fans are like this, but enough to make others notice including players. 6 out of his 7 teams*(not counting Texas, even though he did his dumbass pressbox charge there) made him an outcast? Interesting. You see what you want to see I guess

sorry if this was posted before Um, what?

I was just reading that Kelly's stance on abortion is coming into play. Unreal.

The fleas are jumping off the dog pretty quick

I highly doubt this contract would be the reason the Sox would cry poor, and I would rather Teahen be the backup type than Nix

Hogan saying Jeff Hardy, Kennedy, and RVD on the way to TNA. Kind of surprised about Hardy

It has been a while since a movie like that was worthwhile, I hope Solomon Kane is just that. The trailer does look pretty fun, very Conan-ish.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 06:33 PM) I think so, he said he didn't care if the DH plays in the field, but we haven't had a DH who played the field for about as long as I can remember so I'm not sure what Ozzie needs to get over. Oh, since you quoted J4L, I thought you were saying that to him.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 06:16 PM) What are you talking about? Outside of Everett's 22 games in 2005, when was the last time we had a DH who played in the field? Did you read his comment right?

And there are still a lot of cupcake schedules that go across the board in NCAA basketball as well because nobody wants to risk losing to a mid-major. Maryland and Syracuse catch flak every year for this reason. And Badger, the goal can be making money AND crowning a true champion, they are not mutually exclusive. Everyone loves an underdog.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 03:52 PM) I guess I just think that no matter how much its expanded people are going to have the same complaints. When the NCAA tourney comes you hear of expanding the field to 128. If you went to 16, there is another line where people complain about. There are numerous teams with 3 losses and a Central Michigan team with 2 losses. Not all of them would make the top "16". There is always going to be a team that is left out, I think bowl games are a fun tradition and it gives more college players the chance to have a college defining moment. I believe there are currently 33 bowls. That gives 66 teams a change to play in the postseason and give their fans something to cheer about. Maybe it doesnt select the best champion, but it gives more people a chance to experience something. Sure there is always going to be a left out team, but the idea of somewhat of a playoff is just so much more appealing than what is currently in place. You say that there are 64 teams and there is always a 65th team that feels they deserved to be there. Well then they have the NIT. And now the CBI. And all of the DII and DIII schools have their own playoff designed to reward a team for having a good regular season. And at the end of all of these tournaments, we KNOW who is the clear cut winner, and we saw how they came to win it all. Every year in College Football it is questionable. Every year. Thats just not right, and the archaic system needs to be changed/upgraded/revamped. Saying to a team like Boise St or TCU "Well at least you got a bowl and thats a fun tradition" does not change the fact that both of these teams played the entire season wanting to test the mettle of BCS teams, and that has totally been taken away from them. A playoff can still contain Bowls. Playoffs can run up the ladder and move their way through the Sugar/Orange/Tostidos Fiesta/Rose Bowl and these sponsors can still retain their Bowl name and money that goes with it. The idea of going bowling can still exist with a playoff in place, and people act like it would just fall off the table. and I understand that no matter what happens, there will always be complaints and the lame ass hypocritical academic reasoning that it shouldnt happen. But this system is far too imperfect and fundamentally flawed to continue.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 04:19 PM) I saw The Road yesterday. It was pretty damn good, but I don't know...I felt like it was sort of a letdown. I think that's because it has been built up so much for me, especially on this site. Really? I expect it to be a big disappointment because all of the book fans seem to think it will be.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 04:31 PM) How can a mixed man be racist anyway? That is just silly. Brando knows all. Didnt you know?

Why do all teams hate Edwin Jackson

My birthday present to you is a midsummer softball challenge to your team. Im going to make SHIPPS run run run and run some more.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 01:44 PM) Not every team. There is always an arbitrary line drawn where one team does not get a chance. In the basketball tournament that line is 64, if you are the 65th team you dont get a chance. In football if there was a playoff it would be the 9th team, or the 17th team, or whatever the case may be. "Deserve" is arbitrary. We each define it our own way. bulls*** semantics. That is all

Today is the day! Let the fun begin!

QUOTE (3E8 @ Dec 6, 2009 -> 07:09 PM) Yeah, I saw that matchup coming down main street in a cab LOL

I am fairly sure Trent Green just said the Bears have been "in" every game this year. I was just walking into the room, so I just barely heard it and may of misheard, but thats what it sounded like.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Dec 6, 2009 -> 01:11 PM) What do Illinois people consider a ranch is my point/question-I know JT lives or is from the Peoria area No, there really is no point or question there. JT has a house, and presumably a lot of open land that they hunt and fish on. Kind of like a ranch in every other part of the US

I have never seen a team more afraid of the last 2 minutes of the half than the Bears. For the entire time Lovie has been the coach, after the 2 minute warning its basically time to run the clock out, regardless of situation or score

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Dec 6, 2009 -> 12:57 PM) I am so sick and tired of the pub, we are a running team. No you run the ball a lot, but the worst running team in football is not a running team. I just wish we could run the ball enough to allow Cutler to use play action. If we had a decent running game we could get some big plays on play action. One of the worst running defenses in football is containing our bad running attack. Inside the 20, run run pass. Everytime. You wonder why Cutler throws so many redzone INTs? He is behind the 8 ball everytime.

Even when they do something right(70 yard pass to Bennett) they still f*** up(fumble at the end of the play). Turner is going retarded again, big surprise
