QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 11:58 PM) He should be there at 3 though. No thank you.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 11:31 PM) So on Clemson's first and goal play with 6 seconds left why not instruct all of your defensive players to just hold and tackle the wide receivers and then make them either go for the win or kick the FG on one final play? I can't answer that, but I know if someone successfully did that on that kind of stage, they would ban the practice the next season.

Thank God the Bears don't have the number one pick to blow it on DeShaun Watson.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 11:26 PM) The kicker was a half yard away from giving Bama a free Hail Mary, lol. I'm really not sure what the heck Alabama was doing there. That was the obvious play in that situation.

Now would be a time to call time out

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 11:13 PM) Just wait until this game goes into quadruple overtime At least the game is meaningful. I was at DKR for the Baylor/Texas game and I was there for like 6 hours.

Yet another big game where the NCAA's timing issues are on full display.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 10:33 PM) Bilas s***ting on the refs and how long this game is has been awesome. He has been ruthless in that regard. I'm loving it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 10:25 PM) No. I'm banking on there being teams in the pennant race in July. It doesn't have to be the Pirates and Astros. I predict that by July there will be teams in a pennant race, some of whom will need pitching. Honestly, I would be surprised if both of those teams are in the race given the setup of their rotations - one of them is going to have enough bad luck that they'll drop out like they did last year. But there will be a pennant chase, and due to the fact that there will be a pennant chase, there will be teams who decide they want to win that pennant. Prospects we aren't looking at right now will have good first halves and look better. If the Pirates and Astros think they're fine now, good luck to them. The market will exist in June. The problem is, you need teams to be and a pennant race and have pieces we might want. Also, in season your odds of getting MLB ready talent or close drops because teams are actively using them.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:29 PM) 2nd half started 2.5 hours after the scheduled kickoff time, ridiculous. It's completely unacceptable. And yet I have to watch. The CFPVoices feed is actually really funny because ever 15 minutes or so someone apologizes to the east coast.

ClemzingisVerified account ‏@TheClemReport 3m3 minutes ago On the Sports Weirdness Scale, this Derrick Rose saga has been like a 9. On the Knicks Weirdness Scale, it’s like a soft 7 at best.

Edit. beat me to it. Sounds like a family issue if he's returning to Chicago. That still doesn't explain why he NYK had no idea what was going on.

Then again, the Knicks and Hornacek appear to have opposite responses. The Knicks saying "we don't know" and Hornacek saying "It will be clear later" I think the Knicks know why he's not there.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:34 PM) I think the plot thinned. Selfish baby gonna selfish baby. It's kind of a non-story now.

Now that he's okay, I'm relieved and annoyed. But then again he's not our problem.

Apparently, Joakim Noah says Derrick is okay.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:21 PM) If I weren't certain it was the first one I wouldn't have posted it. Of course I hope the dude is ok. I want to be able to laugh, but I can't. Nice sig, though.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 09:12 PM) He got benched in the 4th the other night. Three options: - he's sulking and being a baby - he's dead - he's gang banging Shall we start a poll? I hope it's the first one, but the fact that his acquaintances don't know anything about his whereabouts is a little scary.

Suicide Squad.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:40 PM) Yeah I can't turn off the voices telecast My wife gives me the "are you seriously watching this?" look when I leave the voices telecast on

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:27 PM) Get rid of Beadle and Rachel Nichols and the ESPNU feed could be fun in the second half. I feel like Michelle should be the ring leader and bounce analysis off everyone. This is just really weird.

Adrian WojnarowskiVerified account ‏@WojVerticalNBA 39m39 minutes ago Sources: There are team officials, teammates and close associates unclear of reason for Derrick Rose's absence for Knicks-Pelicans at MSG. Close associates. Yikes.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) Bill Walton is great tonight but I'm watching the normal broadcast. I don't want all the distractions It's either awkward silence or everyone is talking at the same time. It's funny but too bad. I like all the personalities.

So which of the 14 feeds is everyone watching? The voices feed is unwatchable.

Now I remember why I don't care about the CFP. These games just take forever.
