Thanks for the kudos.  I wonder if he knows the Sollozzo reference?

If he did, you should offer to meet him at Tuscany after a game, he can even drive you two.

Since the Lions game was blacked out here in Detroit, Fox aired the Min/SF game (nothing on CBS).  The announcers mics were muted the entire game which I believe was to further punish Lions fans.  Not only did they miss their team actually winning at home (and tix were going for $10 day of), but they got a half busted telecast of the only game being shown.

After listening the Stockton and that mope they paired him with, I think muting the mics were likely the only favor the NFL did the folks from Detroit.

They should launch the fake-pregnant broad, but the musical numbers are pretty damn funny.

I liked last week's Accafellas doing "Sexx You Up" at a PTA meeting.

Imma going to let you finish Fork, but the Football team running the Beyonce "Single Ladies" play was laugh out loud funny.

Just so the Bears thread doesn't become overloaded. Did anyone watch the game last night? How the hell do the Dolphins start a drive, down 4 pts, with 3:17 left in the game and not go into the hurry up until after the friggn' two minute warning? Considering Chad Pennington's incapable of a pass deeper than 25 yards maybe, just maybe, you should try to conserve as much clock as possible?  They made Lovie's clock management against Green Bay look downright admirable.

I'm watching the SC highlights of their last drive and the commentators are baffled. What the hell were the Dolphins doing?

All I can see is Chad Pennington's flickering lightbulb hanging over his West Virginia Sisterfuckin' Mouthbreathin' head.

I didn't see the game, but how could a team possibly have the ball for 45 minutes in a 60 minute game, only turn the ball over once, and still lose?

Well, the Dolphins had 239 rushing yards on 49 attempts which chewed up a lot of clock. And it looks like they didn't do it very efficiently. I'm no expert on football. Is it common to have 27 first downs and 21 third downs?

The problem was they froze up damn near every damn they got near the goal line and they settled for field goals because the wildcat and running every damn down failed them when they got into the red zone. The other problem was letting Peyton Manning throw it wherever the hell he wanted. He was on the field for less than 15 minutes because he scored nearly every time he was out there. The Colts last touchdown drive was 3 passes and lasted 32 seconds. The defense was just pathetic.

I think I saw that Manning had 3 TD drives that lasted a total of 2 minutes.  He really likes playing in Pro Player Dolphin Landshark Stadium

I agree with Oleg.  In the spirit of that, I offer some comedy.

Anyone else annoyed that the Big 10 Network's got an in-state battle between Michigan schools, but two schools which are closer to Chicago, combined, than Ann Arbor can't get their game on in Chicago?   

Very.

RCN provides all 3 BTN channels in HD , great to watch NIU take it to Purdue.  Too bad MSU couldn't do the same in South Bend

You hate ND so much that you wouldn't root for them to beat a conference rival?  That's pretty dumb.

My logic is two-fold, and has very little to do with the tie-breakers (or logic- but thats College Football).

I generally root for Big Ten schools when they face out of conference competition.  I figure it makes the conference stronger in the eyes of the the voters, which helps schools like NU when it comes to bowl time (I am not detached from reality to consider BCS possibilities for NU, either when my prior post was posted, or now after they crapped the bed in the Carrier Dome). 

I can't really stand Charlie Weis, and I figured a loss to MSU would seal his fate (actually thought we shared that view)

In every damn category other than rushing yards, its damn near even.

I can't help but dwell on this.

Is it all on the O-line? Or is the Kevin Jones injury going to hurt even more than feared?

This is green font, right? Orange Jebus outplayed him all last year and he was the Bears most productive back last year. I think teams are still daring the Bears to throw on them because of the receiving corps. But that shit's gotta stop eventually.

Indeed.  Cutler's having auditions on which WR is going to step up, and Johnny Knocks seems to be answering the casting call.  I think I remember reading where Brandon Marshall was not regarded too highly before meeting Cutler and that Eddie Royal was really a nobody before last year and, if that's the case, I'm willing to buy the notion that out of this mass of mediocrity, Cutler's going to pull one or two (Bennett?) guys up a level.

As much as I hope that's true, it wouldn't shock me if these guys really are just a bunch of turds. The Bears have hit on like one receiver pick under Angelo. Berrian, who is one dimensional and gone is the guy though you could make an Olegesque spirited yet incorrect argument for Hester. Gage, Wade, Bradley... all gone and all suck. None of them ever played with the likes of Utler though. I'm looking forward sitting outside in the freezing cold and snow and ice and seeing how this shit plays out. I wouldn't know a good wideout if he caught a touchdown, ran up and jumped into my lap. (Coolest thing I saw all Sunday, Ochocinco)

Berrian is pretty servicable in Vikingland and Gage, Wade etc are all playing elsewhere as well.  Could be that the receivers that Angelo selected didn't suck, the guy Angelo selected to throw to them did.  I'm willing to wait a bit and see how this plays out.

The Cubs should try to get the media hype machine to trash good, undervalued players on other teams and then trade for them. Here I'll start.

Hanley Ramirez doesn't call his mother but once a month.

I hear Chase Utley didn't "get" Arrested Development.

Jose Reyes practiced unlicensed cosmetic surgery on Beltran, Santana, Wright, and Church.

Mostly on Church.

Heh.

That fat motherfucking idiot.  Word on the street is that 10 wins is his "magic number" this year.  He has no chance of reaching it.  I predict he'll be fired before the first snap of the 2010 season.

More likely to happen to Charlie before 2010, especially if five guys opens in South Bend

(I guess they can't all be Roland Burris, but still... Way to go, douchebags.)

It's not often when I say I am impressed by a politician, but damn, that was impressive.

Well, it wasn't Nixonian, but still... [actually, that was the most coherent 10 minutes on health care I heard in this entire debate].

Can the best game of the year be in the first week?  Univ of Miami 38, FSU 34.  Game ended on a FSU dropped ball in the end zone with no time left.  Six lead changes. Miami QB sets the record for passing yardage in a UM-FSU game (and there have been more than a few decent quarterbacks in that series).  Neither defense was very good, but still a really entertaining game with loads of huge plays.  And Bowden lost.
