QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 24, 2015 -> 08:02 AM) Not sure, there has to be some story behind it. I dont see why moving to the SEC and playing bama every year looks better than being a dominant force in the ACC. Its a downward move to me. Money can be the only reason why, if they can give him more. Look at Bielema. He and his assistants all got paid, but while he seems to be doing a good job, he has little to no chance of winning that division, which means he probably gets fired in a few years.

How about Sammy Watkins being ruled down inbounds when nobody touched him. Somebody thought it was a college game? Nobody on the Bills got mad either though.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 23, 2015 -> 10:40 AM) I haven't looked at like a 3 day forecast, I'm a day-to-day kind of guy with the weather, but its basically cold (by CA terms) at night (40-50's) and been mid 70's to low 80's for the past week or so. It's been like that for a while in the desert too but I think it changes right on Wednesday when we show up. Either way 60s is better than snow on the ground so whatever.

Dan Wiederer @danwiederer 10m10 minutes ago Bears coach John Fox announces that the team has waived QB Jimmy Clausen. Outside interest in David Fales prompted the move. Fales was on the practice squad but has now been promoted to the active roster.

QUOTE (LDF @ Nov 23, 2015 -> 12:18 PM) without getting snarky here it is. as of today ~~ cap space - +39,040 ~~ dano down - 925,000 ~~ bickell up - 4.5 mil difference --- you tell me. "The Hawks can only save $950,000 against the salary cap by sending Bickell to Rockford, and Dano makes $925,000, so the move is pretty much a wash in that regard." http://www.dailyherald.com/article/2015110...orts/151109857/

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 23, 2015 -> 10:26 AM) High of 80 or so today in OC. Just switch locations from the desert to the coast. I will run that idea by the in-laws. Actually flying into San Diego instead of SNA this time, managed to find an incredibly cheap flight into there for some reason.

Got a four flight to SoCal tomorrow with a 3 year old and a 3 month old. That should be exciting. And it's barely gonna be in the 60s all week, I was expecting pool weather.

Lots of Broncos fans, lots of pot smoke too, coincidence? I am often critical of Fox for being too conservative but I can't justify that 4th down call, especially since they were down 8 points. Don't leave the game up to a two point conversion, get it out of the way before hand. And the running play on the 2 point conversion was questionable. There is no doubt Fox has got this roster over achieving but he's gonna kill me once each game matters.

Weather man said 4.5" at OHare, but seems more like 2. None of it is really sticking to the ground yet, roads were fine, although that's probably normal at 5 am on a Saturday

Terrorist attack in Paris
QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) What exactly is the purpose of Al Qaeda carrying out a terrorist attack in a country that is 90% Muslim? Well I'd imagine most of the hotel guests were not Muslims. And there was a report stating they released a few hostages if they were able to recite verses from the Koran.

Do you really know how your health insurance works?
What I don't get is the whole insurance "discount" or reduction. A doctor or hospital charges $10,000 for something, and the insurance just says, nope, you will take $6k and you will like it. How does that even happen on both ends? Uninsured people have to pay double, besides not having any coverage? It's all a scam I tell ya.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 08:29 AM) Miami is a national name and a recent power, they are also in south florida aka the most fertile recruiting grounds in the country. Illinois is a middle of the road Big Ten team with almost no chance to win a national title.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 02:40 AM) I think he has much bigger programs on his mind like USC or Miami or Texas. I'm sure he does. I was just holding out a slim hope that Illinois could be his stepping stone until the perfect top job opened up for him. No chance for that now.

Damn, Houston gave QB whisperer Tom Herman a $3 million salary to try to keep him around. That doesn't bode well for schools like Illinois.

White Sox still deciding on what to do
QUOTE (dpd9189 @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 10:20 PM) Am I the only one who thinks Hahn wants to blow it up and do a Astros/Cubs rebuild but KW and JR are standing in the way of it? I don't know if he wants he to go full blown rebuild like Astros/Cubs, but it is pretty well known that Hahn is much more willing to throw in the towel for a year or two to rebuild, while KW/JR want to go for it every season. See Cabrera, Melky.
