going with the theme of ridiculous trade proposals here lately: fields + lilibridge for crawford. get it done kenny

QUOTE (scotty22hotty @ Sep 22, 2009 -> 01:04 AM) Jenks(arb.), Linebrink(10.5M), Alexi(2.2M) For Big Z(53M), Bradley(21M) & 21M Assuming Jenks takes a 14M/2 deal. Sox take on around ~25M (Cubs shed ~5M) Losing Alexi hurts, but I can see the Cubs taking this offer... hahahahahaha, thats the 2nd worst trade proposal of all time behind the idiot who said "peavy for lil z"

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Sep 21, 2009 -> 10:55 PM) Well something major has to be done to add some fire to the clubhouse. This team has absolutely no heart right now. I'm getting really sick of all these quiet/silent personalities we have. That's why Everett was so important in 05. He added a completely different element to the clubhouse. I'm not saying Bradley is the answer, but having a player with a little craziness could help mix things up. If the Cubs were willing to eat 75% of his contract, then I'd take a flier on him. Worst case scenario you release him if he starts causing problems and make Flowers your full-time DH. No...just...no. Bradley's dumb-below-average ass is about the LAST thing I'd want on our team. There is no way in hell the Cubs eat all his salary, no way a team gives up anything for him, and no way the sox would even consider him.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 10:56 PM) I give them credit for winning today, but a victory over a good team doesn't change the fact that there are some major problems that need to be fixed (good news is the biggest among the problems after week 1 was Cutler/Cutler and the receivers chemistry, which was obviously good today). And yes, I think the Vikings, who were better than the Bears last year and have a pretty similar team to what they had last year except for adding Brett Favre and Percy Harvin, are the favorites. What a crazy concept that is. 2 teams from the same division can't make the playoffs? When did they change that?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 09:11 PM) I would think that would be why Ozzie wouldn't use him as a closer. He likes being able to bring him in at anytime, instead of just the ninth inning with a lead. exactly why I do not want Thornton as our closer, much more valuable as a 7th-8th inning guy multiple times per weak than a closer who will go once over a 10 day span sometimes.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 08:51 PM) There is looking at the team without homer glasses and calling things how they are, and then there is just irrational panic and people jumping off the ledge after week 1, saying the season is over, saying the Bears made a mistake trading for Cutler etc. Those who fall into the second group deserve ridicule. ding ding ding

any word on Alex Brown?

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 06:49 PM) No Sunday night game because of the Emmys, huh? giants cowboys...

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 06:45 PM) We'll see how Knox does now that teams are going to acknowledge him a lot more. Hope they do that, opens up everyone else

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 06:14 PM) Wonder what all the Bears fans are doing who last week said our season was over. What "fans" like that usually do...act like nothing happened and that they've been behind the team since day 1. Hate that s***

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 06:09 PM) nope I expect the absolute worst when its crunch time with lubby. Wooo, no more hearing about how "Denver knew Cutler was no good which is why they traded him"

Time for a squib kick, a sideline pass and a game tying FG

mmmm love me some p**** s*** playcalling by the bears when it gets to crunch time

anyone wanna bet we dont get the first down or in FG range here?

cmon Culter, lets do this damn thing

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 05:42 PM) A lesser QB and the Bears are down at least 14 in this game, right? I wonder if any of the idiot experts take back all the s*** they talked over the week

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 05:30 PM) The difference with the Bears is I think fans are legitimately tired of Lovie's act, whereas most people put the blame for the Sox on the players. Which is how it should be....the coach in baseball has about 1/100 of an impact on the game as they do in football. Lubbie's entire s***ty regime needs to be gone after this season.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 05:17 PM) If you consider getting grabbed by the head, restrained and and then being thrown to the ground to be holding, well you're just a stickler. I'll never understand NFL rules. There is holding on roughly 100% of plays in the game, yet its only called when the refs happen to see it. f***ing stupid

man f*** these refs. Anderson gets held for about 30 seconds and its a penalty on him, stupid stupid stupid rules

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 04:47 PM) Why is Justin Timberlake playing ping pong against Peyton Manning? Why are they both speaking chinese? Why is this supposed to make me want to buy a TV? lighten up man, jeez. Its supposed to be funny not some deep thought provoking commercial

QUOTE (daa84 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 04:25 PM) im clueless as to how cutler fit that ball in there...nice catch by davis THank god he's been solid, I don't think I could handle thousands of ignorant fans calling him Rex Cutler for a week

ah time for some 1st and goal offense by Turner: run up the middle, run up the middle, run up the middle, FG

love me some Knox

Apparently ALL of our f***ing TE's don't know how to catch. Fantastic news

catch the f***ing ball olsen. 2nd god damn time in 2 weeks he's cost us a drive
