The Bears land Jay Cutler for Orton and some draft picks

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009

As I said in my Twitter, I am VERY excited that the Bears got Jay Cutler from the Broncos.
The first question I have to ask is, “What did the Bears give up?” First, Kyle Orton. I really like Kyle Orton and I think he has a long future in the NFL. But, I’m not sure [...]

Monday, December 29th, 2008

Now the Pro Bowl may have a little more interest to a wide audience. According to reports, the game will be played in Miami the week between the end of the playoffs and the Super Bowl. In recent years the Pro Bowl has been a total letdown after the Super Bowl. Many players opt to [...]

Bears survive against the Eagles

Monday, September 29th, 2008

Not even 4 turnovers could stop the Bears on Sunday night. The Bears defense came up huge in a goal line stand to preserve the Bears lead. The Bears had blown leads the past 2 weeks and didn’t want this one to slip away. Philadelphia had never lead in the game and the Eagles put [...]

Michigan comes back to win against Wisconsin

It almost happened again. Michigan almost fumbled away another game. Michigan’s offense is still abysmal, but they were able to get it together enough to pull off the 2nd biggest comback in Michigan history. Wisconsin was up 19-0 at halftime and then was outscored 27-6 by the Wolverines in the second half.
Michigan only notched 1 [...]

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

I am a Georgia fan. Today we were beaten badly. When we were ranked #1 to start the season I was very excited. We started our year off with impressive wins over not so impressive schools, barely getting wins from South Carolina and Arizona State. I knew something didn’t smell right, [...]

USC?

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

Huh? I am happy to see the Trojans fall to the Beavers. The Bulldogs would not have lost that game. Next, time for the Sooners to fall. Georgia will dominate Alabama Saturday to show the poll voters that they should have stuck with their first choice.

Michigan fumbles away the game against Notre Dame

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

Six turnovers? SIX? I know it was raining but hold on to the ball! And by the way, Nick Sheridan should not take another snap for Michigan. He’s terrible. He floats every pass.
Other problems for Michigan
They did not pressure the quarterback. Notre Dame gave up a record number of sacks last year. Michigan sacked [...]
