  1. Clean break...this team IS STARVING for new blood and a fresh perspective...
  2. Totally agree...if the Pats did this, Belichick would be lauded... I still want Marvin OUT!!!
  3. Another thing that is very interesting about the game is that those conditions may cost Vinatieri $500k. He has a clause in his contract that if he makes 90% of his FG attempts, he gets a $500k bonus. He was 22-23 before the game and missed two FG's during the game so he is now 22-25 - under 90%. If he goes 5-5 the rest of the year, he will get back to 90%...can you imagine if he has a 53 yarder in the last game for $500,000?? I would call that added pressure! He has proven he can handle pressure though...
  4. I was saying the same thing. That PI call was a joke. The block by the other WR was within one yard of the line of scrimmage so no PI should have been called. However, since I have Shady on my FF team, I was OK with the OT as he took one to the house for me to end it:)! I will say that the flag may have been thrown right away but buried in the snow so maybe the announcers just could not see it...terrible call though IMO...
  5. I agree that Trinity beats CCH 19 out of 20 years (heck, maybe even 20 out of 20). But is this the one year that CCH could beat them? I don't know but think CCH could keep it close. And I am a Highlands guy.
  6. While I don't agree with what Mic did yesterday AT ALL and am not a Mic lover (I am sort of luke warm about him), I actually think UC would have a hard time getting a better coach than him if he left. UC is not in a good conference situation and is not the easiest school to recruit to. Mic is a tireless recruiter and just works his butt off from what I have heard. I actually think UC is probably fortunate to have him.
  7. Also, how cool would this 8 team playoff have been... 5 conference champs plus Bama, Auburn and Wisconsin. Clemson-USC, OK-Auburn, Georgia-Wisconsin and Bama-OSU How could anyone NOT like an 8 team playoff???
  8. Not that it matters but how is a 3 loss non-conference winning Auburn ahead of a 2 loss conference winning USC in the final rankings?? USC is getting no respect...
  9. Before the Hero Challenge started, Tiger's Vegas odds to win the 2018 Masters were 100-1. In just two days, they are down to 15-1! That is insane...
  10. The thing that excites me (as a Tiger lover) about the last couple of days is not that he is playing well but HOW he is doing it. First, he looks like he feels good...not just saying it but it looks like he is very comfortable. Second, he is driving it LONG. He is consistently hitting it 300+. That tells me he is letting it go and not holding back...again, you cannot do that if your back is not feeling good. Third, he seems to be over the chipping yips, which is HUGE. Yips of any kind can be very hard to get over. He actually chipped one from on the green yesterday...he would not have even considered doing that last year. If his putting speed was not so bad (simply hitting too many putts too hard), he would probably be about 10 under. Correcting his speed on the putts is much easier than the yips though. I really do think if he stays healthy, he can be a top 10 player again. It is a huge IF though when it comes to golf and back issues.
  11. What does it say about the other players on Bama that these three played BETTER than when the other guys were on the floor with them?!?! This was LITERALLY addition by subtraction...
  12. I like 8 the best with the top four seeds hosting the first round as a reward for being in the top 4.
  13. Who knows...the AFC is the Pats, Steelers and a bunch of mediocrity (and calling it mediocrity is being kind)...
  14. Do they have a stud QB coming in next year? If not, why will they be better?
  15. We need to get Mueller off the Russia investigation and on the JT Barrett investigation:)!
  16. #2 ranked team in the country last week will be unranked this week. When is the last time that happened? What is going on there? Injuries? Could this be related to the assistant coach being in trouble? I don't know...just asking...
  17. It wasn't Jerry's decision when to take the suspension. It was Zeke's and the NFL player's union. Now I am sure Jerry let Zeke know his opinion but the decision on whether to appeal and potentially delay the suspension was not Jerry's.
  18. Arizona was ranked number 2 in the country when this tournament started and lost 3 straight...wow!
  19. I almost posted this exact same thing GNKY! The only thing is that the murders occurred when I was a little kid...I was already born
  20. I don't understand why MLB cannot define what it means by "valuable". Is it "best player" or is it the best player on a winning team? Just tell the voters what valuable means...
  21. I don't know the answer to the thread question but I have to admit I CANNOT WAIT to see how this plays out. This is war between Jerry and Roger..."made to see TV IMO"...the next Hard Knocks should be about this!!!
  22. Jim, I am not a big Jerry Jones fan, but I have no idea what the owners are thinking renewing Goodell's contract AND WITH A RAISE! I would think plenty of very qualified candidates would do that job for $10MM...or certainly $20MM...and they are paying Goodell $40-50MM!?!?? Pure insanity IMO. I think the owners are afraid they will not be able to agree on the next guy so they will just stick with Roger even though he really has not done anything right since the last CBA (he totally won the last CBA - but I think most guys in his shoes could out negotiate the players' union - the NFL has all the leverage).
  23. This decision was SO BAD (and I was saying it before the game), that I could see this blowing up the locker room. If I am a veteran player and the team is 5-4 and a playoff team if the playoffs started yesterday...and you bench Taylor (who is by my estimation an average starting QB - not great but not bad) for someone nobody has ever heard of and had never played a regular season NFL game...I would think (1) you are giving up on the season for some insane reason, (2) you are just an idiot or (3) I would at least wonder if race was involved. I doubt race had anything to do with it but when a decision this crazy is made, I have to admit the thought crossed my mind.
