QUOTE (Soxfest @ Dec 22, 2013 -> 10:20 PM) Collinsworth just loves to take jabs at Bears and so happy when things go wrong. two minutes ago he was saying that the McCoy play was a fumble.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 22, 2013 -> 04:46 PM) The Panthers are 4th in the league in point differential, they're right where they should be. They're good at blowing out the bad teams like the Bucs twice, the Giants, the Vikings and the Falcons. Carolina is average 13.8 points per game against teams with a winning record. I wonder far they can go winning games by scoring 17 or less points, especially if Steve Smith is out for any length of time.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 22, 2013 -> 04:31 PM) Even though teams play guys a ton as rookies these days...I think you're making a mistake if you project a guy to be "not the answer" when he's only a 2nd year player. He's going to be 26 years old and 32 starts into his career by opening day 2014. Miami moved up into the top 10 to draft him. At some point he's got to show atleast a glimpse of being a Pro Bowl caliber QB.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 22, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) Tony Romo, proving once again to be one of the most clutch QBs in football. Another 4th quarter comeback for him, another great drive when within a TD, another week where no one cares. I've always hated the Cowboys growing up but now I hope they do well for Romo's sake. Impressive s***ting of the bed by the Dolphins today. I always root for the Dolphins but Tannehill isnt the answer if youre trying to build a Super Bowl caliber team. He's a good QB on his very best day and an above average at best every other day. He may catch lightning in a bottle one season and make a run if he's got a real good team around him but he has the look of a 6-9 win a season caliber QB. And are the Panthers the luckiest team of 2013? (edit---forgot the Pats have been really lucky too.) They remind me of the Broncos with Tebow. Amazing defense who just waits around until their crap offense makes a play late to pull it off.

Winter is much more fun to watch IMO. hockey, luge, bobsled,speed skating(not that short track s***), skiing

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 14, 2013 -> 10:34 AM) Where do you get those odds 5dimes

Looking at some of the Heisman odds. I took the field vs Winston to win the Heisman. $10 to win $3,000. I would never have done that with an actual $10 bill in my hands but I said why not since its in an account. I probably should've done $5 for $1500. Manziel to finish in the top 4 at +1200. Manziel to finish in top 5 is +280. Lynch not to finish in the top 4 is +475. If I had to guess, it'll be Winston, the two running backs and the either AJ/Lynch/Manziel. I'd like to take Manziel to finish in top 4 but I'm sure McCarron is getting a lot of career votes. Maybe Lynch not to finish in the top 4? I'm sure a lot of voters got turned off after the conference title game.

Marc Topkin ‏@TBTimes_Rays 2h #Rays apparently got their man Loney back, per reports from @Buster_ESPN and @Ken_Rosenthal, at $21 million for 3 years Expand

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 13, 2013 -> 03:02 PM) GSP is taking an indefinite leave from the UFC and is vacating his title belt Hopefully Hendricks wins it so the rightful champion is crowned.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 12, 2013 -> 05:40 PM) Butch Davis wants a job. Not the greatest of gameday coaches but I'd take him over anyone when it comes to evaluating talent/recruits. He would've been what Saban is now if he would've stayed at Miami for another 5 seasons.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 08:25 AM) They do? 3,820 yards passing / 4,013 total yards / 67.9 comp. % / 38 TD pass / 10 INT / 190.1 QB rating / 42 Total TD 3,732 yards passing / 4,418 total yards / 69.1 comp. % / 33 TD pass / 13 INT / 170.4 QB rating / 41 Total TD I don't know how you can make that claim with a straight face they showed a stat during the game comparing Manziel's numbers to Winston's. ESPN was showing 47 total TD's and 5100 yards so after you posted this I went to look at the stats and it looks like ESPN was comparing Winston 2013 vs Manziel 2012. I dont know why ESPN would bother comparing a candidate from this year to a previous year. With that said, just by looking at the stats then Winston shouldnt be the lock everyone is claiming him to be.

I live 10 minutes from Disney and I'm kinda curious about driving over to that hotel to see what's its all about but I think I'll just end up bored after 5 minutes.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 06:18 PM) McCarron, Manziel and Lynch dont even need to book the trip. Sad thing is Manziel's numbers blow Winston's out of the water and he has 0% chance at repeating.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) Clemson gets an at-large berth in a BCS bowl? Glad that system is gone. well the other options arent that great for the Orange. Missouri cant since there are already 2 SEC teams in the BCS. Same for OK State. So it really comes down to Clemson,Oregon, Arizona St. and Clemson is most likely to bring the most people to Miami.

and I forgot how fun it is being in a league where the conference caters to certain teams based on geography. The Chik-Fil-A Bowl wants Miami vs Georgia or TAMU but the ACC commish is pushing Duke down their throats. That will really bring in the revenue that Chik-Fil-A Bowl wants.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 04:13 PM) And 30something that aren't. but there is a route for an automatic spot that every team has a chance at. This is just a group of people inviting teams into a tournament. And actually the NCAAs is a tournament, not a playoff. So this should be called a college football tournament, not playoff.

and Pittsburgh was a step out of bounds from lateraling the ball 70 yards around the field for the win. although I think it may have never counted anyways because Big Ben's lateral looked like it went forward.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 03:15 PM) So the basketball tourney isn't a playoff because it has a selection committee? the basketball tournament has automatic bids.

QUOTE (Jake @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 12:02 PM) The whole thing is illegitimate without a playoff, and a playoff that has more than 4 teams in it it will always be illegitimate as long as its an invitational, not a playoff. its not a playoff when you have a group of people deciding who gets in and who doesnt.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 8, 2013 -> 10:16 AM) For just a moment forget pedigrees and conferences and strength of schedule. Can anybody who watched both teams play yesterday honestly say that Auburn will give FSU a better game than MSU would? I do because I dont think MSU would score more than 14 points vs FSU. Atleast Auburn has the ability to put points on the board.

sorry ESPN, you can burn that Jack Nicklaus and his grandson Nick O'Leary story.

SEC SEC SEC lol. atleast we may have an entertaining title game now. maybe...

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Dec 7, 2013 -> 10:18 PM) Either move it to the 10 yard line, or make them use a football throw. Kinda lame. go back to a 20 yard toss into the can or a field goal attempt.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 7, 2013 -> 10:19 PM) Just realized that FSU in the title game means the most annoying thing in sports: that stupid "song" 1000000000000 times. f*** well it looks like you'll be annoyed for most of the game now that its looking more and more likely they'll be facing Ohio State. that chant will be on audio repeat.
