QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 10:10 AM) I do like the chances vs Clemson, but I see USC putting up big points, even with the game being at ND. I wanted to go to the game but tickets are $400+.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 10:08 AM) Going for the 12 team progressive parlay. Help me pick a combination of 12 college football and/or nfl winners with the spread line. 3 misses still wins albeit a smaller amount. $1 to win $900. Let's do this people. I'll cut in whoever helps me win. NY Giants +5.5 Seahawks -10 Ravens -3

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Sep 29, 2015 -> 03:40 PM) Norman, Amaukamara, and Wilkerson are my top guys I want. Not Von Miller?

Rose to have surgery for a fractured left orbital. You just can't make this s*** up

RT @AdamSchefter: More trades from Chicago: Bears have traded LB Jon Bostic to the Patriots, per @fieldyates.

@JaysonBraddock: There's been speculation that Martellus Bennett could be had. Local kid & skillset fits perfectly for what Texans need & only 1 healthy TE.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 28, 2015 -> 05:17 AM) Why? I get the feeling that Forte wants to go. What would everyone use the #1 on? and don't say Cook or Hackenberg. Gag Why? Because there's 1) not an RB worth taking at #1 and 2) this is a passing league. I would take an OT, S,, CB or QB.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 27, 2015 -> 09:09 PM) Running back. Hard to justify the first overall pick on a RB. I forgot to include that one.

Aside from P, K, C, G and WR, is there any position the Bears could use their 1st round pick on that you'd say you'd be upset?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 27, 2015 -> 08:16 PM) Plus Pace was also doing this without hiring all his guys yet and had to evaluate on the fly. Give him an offseason to keep cutting all the fat (scouts) from the old regime then you can have your say. You are fooling yourself if you thought this was gonna be a 1-2 year rebuild. No, I know it'll be 3-4 years. I just wish 2 of the picks had more than 0 minutes of playing time in 3 games, one wasn't out for the year, one didn't only have a handful of touches in 3 games and the other about to get only a few snaps a game with Ratliff coming back.

It would take probably $15 million annually to get McDonough.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 27, 2015 -> 06:36 PM) Top draft picks will be so beneficial for this franchise. I like their past draft this year. We'll see what Pace does after we conclude this dreadful season. What have you seen from any of them? Their 1st rounder is going to miss the year, their 2nd rounder has done nothing, the 3rd and 6th rounders have been inactive for all 3 games, their 4th rounder got no snaps today and their 5th rounder looks like he could play *a little.* I know they need time but I'm not going to say I like anything about the draft. If they need draft picks, you trade Forte now. You also look in the mirror and figure out if Martellus and Alshon are on this team in 2017, because if the answer is no, trade them as well.

Anyone have a reason why Langford has ZERO snaps today?

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 27, 2015 -> 05:43 PM) But is he a redshirt sophomore? No

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 26, 2015 -> 08:18 AM) McCown won at least 3 games that year so I don't know where the stat comes from. IIRC, they beat Dallas, Green Bay and Baltimore. He started and finished those 3 games.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 27, 2015 -> 08:17 AM) ref the games this week and looking at players. i am now intrigue with with these players Baun - can he be the power forward in the future, prob another yr in the minors. too bad. Panarin - i really like what he brings to the hawks. i wouldn't be surprise he is on the #2 line. Tikhonov - i like him, a solid #2 line but will be prob line up on the #3 line for the hawks. what ever happen on the beginning off season. the gm did bring in a nice return of players and signing of FA's. with this surplus of extra, quality group of players on the team, i really can see and hope the hawks can do so major trades. i would settle for nice draft picks and or a young stud potential goaltender of the future. Nobody has any idea how good Panarin will be over here.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 26, 2015 -> 07:33 PM) i been thinking long and hard on this idea of what i am about to say, for a week or so. they will need to trade a player with a high salary next yr. since they screwed up in getting rid of bickell. They can LTIR him this year and I believe next. QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 26, 2015 -> 07:21 PM) i too do not like this deal..... 8 yrs???? are the hawks going to have another bickell in the making, toward the end of this contract. Except Seabrook is an all-world defenseman who has years of success, leadership and championships. Bickell had a good 2 months and was shockingly rewarded like a good player. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Sep 26, 2015 -> 07:28 PM) Hawks better pray cap goes up next few years. He's going to get a 1.85 million raise. You're acting like he's going from 900,000 to 6.85.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 25, 2015 -> 08:48 PM) some hawk scored 2 goal and i don't even know nothing about him. darling is in the nets. Was it Baun? He was given a 2 year deal out of college last year from the Hawks and I believe played against Minnesota. I don't think he makes the team out of the camp but he has that 3rd line feel to him if the Hawks find a way to LTIR or deal Bickell.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 25, 2015 -> 08:01 PM) no matter what the things he did was bad in any one scale. the problem is he is young and doing something ..... would he ever been look at if he isn't the Kane of the SC winning blackhawks, who is making a huge amount of change. i am sure there are other young lads who are sports stars doing, i don't know, things that many may consider stupid. but why was Kane in getting in trouble. so i say it is bad luck..... Yes they would be because sexual assault is serious whether you're rich or poor. Not every convicted/charged/accused rapist is rich. Uh because punching a cab driver, choking a woman, shouting racial jokes, being a drunk a**hole and supposedly sexually assaulting someone gets anyone in trouble. Everyone gets in trouble for doing criminal things, not just hockey players. It's not bad luck. It's pure stupidity on Kane's part.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 25, 2015 -> 07:50 PM) before anything can be discuss or talk about, esp if Kane and co want to do something positive. here is the biggest but, this whole legal mambo jumbo needs to be finalized. btw this is the streak of bad luck i was talking about it. Streak of bad luck for who/what?

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Sep 25, 2015 -> 07:40 PM) Making insensitive jokes and having sex with someone against their will are completely incomparable. He gets the benefit of the doubt because in our society you are innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. My post before that was much more in detail. Don't take one of my many examples to make your point. It was reported by many students that he began choking the woman there because she turned him down for sex. Again he's a f***ing moron. If you doubt that, that's your objective. The issue here is that we either blame Kane or blame her. I'm not sure why we're all cheering for this to end because her mom messed things up. If Kane did this, I hope he rots. Personally, I watch Law and Order and cheer for the rapist/murderer/etc to get caught and charged. Just because he's my favorite hockey player, I'm not going to hope her mom got him off easy (if he did it). Since when did we as a society start this "oh she's probably a gold digger" perspective on rape? It's utter BS and not fair to the victims. All of a sudden, is she hard to believe? Probably, but Kane has a history of criminal garbage and he may be even more hard to trust.

Let's not forget he also made racial jokes at Wisconsin. But hey he should get the benefit of the doubt here!

He may be innocent but let's not act like Kane is a very smart or a very good person. He had a coke problem, hepunched a cab driver over some change, he attempted to choke a woman at University of Wisconsin and now this after weeks before saying "watch out for me" at the SC parade. It's apparent he has no idea how to act as a young man with millions. It doesn't help that his dad is a f***ing moron who has enabled him for years. I would not be the least bit surprised if the Hawks make him get his alcohol abuse issue looked at and, whether or not he does it, attempt to deal him in July 2016 because he cannot be trusted.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 24, 2015 -> 08:06 PM) And that horrible woman needs to be locked up. And EA Sports should print new covers. This doesn't mean Kane is innocent. I think we're assuming because her lawyer is quitting that Kane is innocent. He could still have done this. It is, however, looking more and more like he's going to have the accusations dropped.
