QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 01:47 PM) That wasn't eliciting a response from Bears fans, it was comparing a very close call that was being reviewed to a previous very close call in the season that was extremely similar. That was a very appropriate comment for the situation. I don't see how talking about Dez Bryant is somehow trolling Bears fans, it wasn't against the Cowboys, so I don't see how that's even close to trolling Bears fans. And no one "asked why I was trolling", the response was... "Do you try or is it natural?" Which I took as him trying to say I was stupid or an idiot, or whatever other type of namecalling you want to infer, but either way it was clear he was in disagreement with me, and it was a TD, to which I replied that it was no surprise that a BEARS FAN would agree with a call that goes FOR THE BEARS. I hope you don't hurt your arm while you were reaching so far for these. Then why do you suppose people just jump down your throat as soon as you post in here or the Technology thread? Do you really think what you post is thought-provoking and that is why it causes such a stir?

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 11:52 AM) LOL. You clearly have no idea what a troll is man. Nooo idea. And is this very article NOT being discussed here? http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nfl--jay-cutl...-020935212.html Is this very comment not suggesting his value around the league, considering THE LEAGUE is used in his comment? If you are so certain of what we are discussing, then why did you have to ask the question in the first place? And for what purpose? Oh no, not trolling at all...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 12:20 PM) Cutler could give Mary Kay a run for her money with the amount of flaws that he covers up on the Bears O-line... Mary Kay? More like Pat Maxwell!

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 12:16 PM) LOL. Is Cutler as a possible MVP or best QB in the league really being discussed here? No. We're discussing his value to the Bears relative to other quarterbacks. You have turned into an outright troll.

A lot of this depends on how Bama plays against Georgia. Although Aaron Murray has played very well this season, he has a penchant for struggling terribly against elite defenses. I don't expect that to change. I think Bama soundly beats Georgia in the SEC title game. I think a Bama-ND line opens at 8.5-9.5 with a total in the mid-40's.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 10:43 AM) I've seen that. But I've seen videos like that for decades now. Remember the AT&T "You Will?" commercials in the 90's? I was just pointing out to you what I was referring to. Not that it was some vision of soon-to-hit-the-shelves reality.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 09:35 AM) Minority report had alot of this type of s*** in it, but so did Quantum Leap. I seem to remember getting an email from my dad a year or so ago with all kinds of devices like this...I think it was made by Corning Glass or something...let me see if I can dig it up.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 08:23 AM) Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan The best contract in baseball just got a whole lot longer. Rays sign Evan Longoria to a six-year, $100M extension with option for 2023. This sure is an odd thing for the Rays to be working on right now, but more power to them. And more power to Longoria for being willing to stay a Ray for his entire career.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 26, 2012 -> 06:31 AM) On the other hand, here's another example of blatant anti-Cutler media bias for no real reason. Now that is just f***ing bizarre. As if athletes usually stop and chat in these videos or something.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 25, 2012 -> 10:58 PM) I looked at that headline and thought to myself, "now he's getting too much credit". I don't. I was telling several of my friends yesterday that I really don't think many outside of Chicago put together just how good Cutler is because he doesn't put up big numbers. But when you watch this team play with Cutler versus watching this team play with another quarterback, the difference is glaring. We go from a team that wins by 10-20 points with Cutler to a team that loses and often loses big without him. Now he'll never win the award because that is going to go to a guy with the gaudy statistics. But it's incredible just how good this guy is right now...making this piece of s*** offense work with this piece of s*** playcalling...

QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 25, 2012 -> 09:05 PM) Dont look now but the Seahawks are in because of the replacement refs vs GB. Seattle has an absolute brutal stretch coming up. Saints are against the wall and have the Falcons on the road this Thursday. TB has a tough stretch coming up but the finale at Atlanta might not be so tough if Atlanta already has the NFC locked up. The Cowboys and Redskins caught some big breaks today too. I cant see Chicago not getting a spot unless Cutler goes down. So it leaves Seattle,Tampa Bay,Minnesota,New Orleans,Dallas and Washington fighting for the final spot. Its going to be a wild finish. The Saints and Viqueens have brutal schedules...the Cowboys have the easiest path but them and the Redskins are not consistent enough in my opinion to get in. The Bucs didn't play terribly today...from what I have seen, they are the best teams of those that you mentions, but they are going to have to win some tough divisional games.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 25, 2012 -> 08:56 PM) Another tough loss to take for the Bucs. I know in the NFL every game is close but the 5 losses have been by a combined 23 points. When the Bucs are 8-8 and watching the playoffs, they'll look back to missed opportunities against the Giants,Redskins,Saints and Falcons as the reason why they arent playing anymore. I'm trying not to expect the world this year, especially after last year, its still tough to take. Atleast every team the Bucs are battling with(Seattle,Minny,New Orleans) lost today. Yeah, I think the Saints/Queens/Seahawks will miss the playoffs leaving Atlanta/SF/GB/Bears/Giants/Bucs in the playoffs...

Jay looking like he was going deer hunting after the game or something.

The question is, is she hot?

Norv Turner next Bears OC?

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Nov 25, 2012 -> 11:57 AM) Yep, the big dog is back at the table. Hopefully for a long stay. Vegas expects that a ND-Alabama BCS Championship matchup would be the most wagered-on college football game ever.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 23, 2012 -> 02:50 PM) In recent years I've covered Fenway and both of the LA Ballparks in addition to the Cell. Traffic to the LA ones was terrible, took 3x as long as any ride I've ever taken to or from the Cell, and the public transit options were worse. Fenway, a few rich people drove, but everyone else arrived by public transit. I just don't feel like traffic to the Cell, even on a very busy day, was any worse than any other place I've been. I get that any of it is annoying, but if it's not an impediment to seeing the Angels He's ALIVE!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 08:23 AM) f***. 1st and 2nd round draft picks are finally producing as rookies, and they both get hurt. Now we get even more of "Devin Hester, wide receiver." Great. We should be able to get Earl Bennett more involved...where the hell has he been this year?

Ed Reed's suspension overturned on appeal, will receive a $50k fine.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 01:18 PM) I forgot about Harbaugh. Schiano i'm still not sold on. I was thinking more of college coaches that run these high flying college offenses that don't translate to the NFL. Nick Saban has NFL experience as coordinator. Many of the concepts Kelly employs have already translated to the NFL...

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 12:29 PM) I would say he is a brilliant college offensive mind. The current offense he runs at Oregon would get killed in the NFL. He could use certain parts of it. Like the tempo of the offense, but you can't run the option in the NFL. I wouldn't expect him to run the offense he runs at Oregon in the NFL. To me, the key is not necessarily the concepts he has implemented. It is the ability to conceptualize something different that is very effective. and implement that on a mass scale.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 10:06 AM) A part-pitbull had my dog's head in his mouth once without being provoked. My guy was minding his own business. I was down on the ground trying to pry his mouth apart. The other owner was screaming "baby, baby", I guess that is the code for him to back down. I was as horrified as I have ever been in my life. No one will convince me pitbulls won't turn on you at the drop of a hat, not their fault per se, but the breeding IMO has made them unpredictable. My dog is a 16 lb. Cavalier King Charles who never bothers anyone. My dog was alright, a few wounds. It was really quick. He does bark at pitbulls when he sees them on the street now, and I don't go within 30 feet of them when I'm with him. Yeah, ultimately, it boils down to what Rock said...dogs are animals. The more physically capable one is of harming another living being, the more dangerous they are, regardless of how well-trained they are. My oldest Dane has a thing about little white fluffy dogs. For whatever reason, he wants to pick them up in his mouth like a stuffed animal. While some people find this humorous, the owners of little white fluffy dogs do not. As soon as I see one, I grab my dog and remove him from the area. But you can never be certain what might happen.
