QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 13, 2013 -> 12:15 PM) Officially landed the top bball class in the conference. How can it be "official" when there are still undecideds?

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 11, 2013 -> 03:58 PM) Tried as well. Gonna chill on the couch and watch in jealousy. It should still be awesome from the couch. I just wish the order of the games was reversed, or that they started a bit later.

Emery needs to completely rebuild the secondary for next year. I'm not sure that's possible, but I didn't think it could be done with the OL either. Here's hoping Melton can come back healthy, because I really don't think its possible to retool the D line and backfield together, and they both need it. Certainly not with Peppers on the payroll.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Nov 7, 2013 -> 10:09 AM) I know. I don't ever recall looking forward to a Thursday night of college football this much. I think Game 2 might be a blowout, though. Nailed another one.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 7, 2013 -> 01:24 PM) What a p**** that Jay Cutler is. Really. All the meatheads who b****ed during the NFC Championship need to kick themselves.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Nov 7, 2013 -> 09:02 AM) Weird to have not one but two giant games on Thursday. I know. I don't ever recall looking forward to a Thursday night of college football this much. I think Game 2 might be a blowout, though.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Nov 6, 2013 -> 10:55 PM) Rose just needs his breakout game. I'm calling 26 pts on Friday It's not just his points; it's 21 turnovers against 15 assists so far. Yeah, those assists would look better if other guys were shooting, but still.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 5, 2013 -> 04:40 PM) Wisconsin has been after Matthews hard, but they have not had a good track record with Chicago recruits. Rashard Griffith immediately came to mind, before I realized that was 20 years ago.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 5, 2013 -> 10:38 AM) Wright can't tackle and Conte runs away whenever he sees somebody bigger than him approaching. Don't forget about Steltz; although he did look good holding for Gould on that kickoff.

I am still not used to these "Bizarro-Bears," but that game was entertaining as hell, and the guys in the cheese grater hats were f***in' awesome. I must say, however, that I have been watching this team since Abe Gibron was coach, and I have never seen a more pathetic collection of safeties. They are embarrassing.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 20, 2013 -> 07:54 PM) This hating of Cardinals fan must be a new thing I'm not aware of, but I am sure as s*** that I hate the f***ing Red Sox fans and pretty much every sports team in the Boston area. I don't get the Cardinal fan hate, either. I've always found Bahston fans insufferable. I'm an AL guy, but GO REDBIRDS!

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 08:43 PM) Vintage Peavy against the Tigers. I was telling the gf not to be so excited about seeing him pitch again (we r cheering bosox). Pretty much vintage Peavy in the postseason.

Anyone catch Comcast's "5 Outs . . ." special? I enjoyed watching Dave Kaplan relive his obvious agony.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 08:25 AM) It's weird to see the Bears have a good offense and a bad defense. Extremely. All things (wins) being equal, I'd really prefer it the other way around. Its what I've almost always known.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 01:06 PM) "Change of date November 16th my birthday I will make my college decision" Kid can't even decide when to decide.

I just realized that Steven King's latest book, "Doctor Sleep" is a sequel to "The Shining." That may have moved it to my on-deck circle.

I am about 100 pages into "Night Film" by Marissa Pessl and am completely enthralled.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 7, 2013 -> 10:50 AM) OSU has won the last 9 games in Champaign. It's when they play in Columbus that Illinois steps up their game. Several of those games were pretty close and decided late; only 1 or 2 blowouts if I recall. For some reason, OSU v. Ill games tend to run closer than you'd expect. Don't see it this year, though.

Worst. Poll. Ever.

David Fincher is directing the adaptation of "Gone Girl" http://www.rollingstone.com/movies/news/bl...r-film-20130916 Maybe he can do something about that ending . . .

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 03:57 PM) This makes too much sense for both sides not to happen Assuming its Texas, which it might not be,

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 02:34 PM) Just remember, the Rangers thought Cruz was going to appeal his suspension, so it's very possible they claimed Rios and are now much more desperate to get him than they were at the deadline (Sorry if someone posted this already) This was my thought, and its no doubt our best-case scenario.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 5, 2013 -> 11:44 AM) i don't think the dislike for him is all about PEDs, I believe there is a good amount of asshattery involved when it comes to A-Rod.; That's just, like, your opinion man.
