Sox trade Addison Reed to Diamondbacks for 3b Matt Davidson
QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 04:02 PM) Seems kinda unfair. I don't know that I would consider either Reed or Santiago "meh" considering their ages or ceilings. Santiago is pretty meh honestly.

Got a PS4 + 12 months of PSN Plus from Best Buy for $450 + tax. Not a bad deal.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) Why? You throw a pick it's as good as a punt. You go for a higher percentage play and you get a first down. I wasn't going through Cutler's progressions, so I can't speak for who was or wasn't open. But if there's a shorter pass that'll get you a first down, I'd rather take that. It's not like the only possible outcomes of that play was TD or turnover.

Sox trade Addison Reed to Diamondbacks for 3b Matt Davidson
Davidson was actually pretty good in 87 PAs last year with the Diamondbacks. The Ks are are an issue and the defense is a question mark, but I'll take it.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) It was still a 50 yard throw against the wind, while getting hit. The fact that he was throwing a 50 yard pass on third and 11 into double coverage made it a WTF throw.

I liked Addison, but he did seem to wear down the past two years down the stretch (his velocity dropped 2 MPH last year). This is a good haul for him.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 07:28 AM) Fantasy football playoffs are all about luck. I scored the 2nd highest points in the playoffs ever in my keeper league last week but lost because the guy I faced scored the most (I got Vereen and McCoy'd). It's frustrating but it happens. I went off again in the consolation this week and will be playing for 5th place (and a captain spot - see above) now. Fortunately, in my other league I won this week thanks to Josh Gordon's garbage time TD. Thanks for the TD run Michael Bush!!! So I'm guaranteed $300 for 2nd, if I win it will be $600. The guy I played in the semis scored 145 (second most of the week by far) and he's going to lose to me because I'm going to score 170+. It's funny because I also scored 170 against him in our regular season matchup. That's some bad luck.

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 16, 2013 -> 09:25 AM) K, but you just repeated that back without saying Great which really undercuts your point in nitpicking word choice. He played well enough for the media to back off of him for a week.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Dec 15, 2013 -> 07:00 PM) If the bears do have to face Rodgers in week 17, they at least have the ability to win a shootout (especially at home), unlike in years past I don't know about that. Cutler hasn't had a good game against Green Bay in 3 years.

Green Bay should have been out of it for a while now, but s***ty teams like Dallas, Atlanta, and Minnesota have let them come back late in games and stay in the race.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 15, 2013 -> 06:50 PM) From the Bears perspective, not only is GB still alive but I bet Rodgers would have just been shut down if the Pack lost this game. This hurt the Bears in more way than one. Exactly. This game would have sank GB and there would have been no reason for them to bring back Rodgers. Now the Bears will have to win-out and Rodgers will most likely be the QB for that last game.

The Titans tie it up against Arizona after losing by 17 mid-way through the fourth.

So outside of those two interceptions, Cutler definitely wasn't bad and the Bears offense made a pretty decent Browns defense look bad.

I thought I was done for...then Jamaal Charles and DeMarco Murray give me 78 points. I'm on my way to around 170 points this week. The other guy is going to score around 150. Crazy.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 15, 2013 -> 02:56 PM) That fake jet sweep, then pitch to the RB has been a great play all year for the Bears. They need to stop that end-around with Jeffery, it hasn't worked since early in the year.

Only one timeout left and there's still 12 minutes left in the game. Awesome.
