Your going down next year, guaranteed........ LOL

I hate the "Leap" but now I see why the players seek out their "loving" fans, lol

In that case, I change my vote on payouts from other to 60/30/10.

I trust you, just confused (not unusual for a senile old man - ask bowlingtwig, he can attest to my mental state, or lack there of, lol). I did not realize you were talking about per centages. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Gotcha, so 180.00 has been collected and Acedthesobrietytest has posted on the Yahoo league site requesting info on how to pay. Looks like we are in good shape to have all 200.00 collected. Sorry flea, did not know you paid.

Ok, sorry, did not see it on the leaguesafe site. What did you do, paypal DrunkBomber?

Never played Keeper before so let me say that before I make my suggestion: Let's keep 1 player only. That player has to be a player you drafted and kept on your roster for the entire season. You lose the draft pick for whatever round you drafted that player. Not sure if we would have access to our draft info or this years rosters next year so I am not sure how that would work.

BlueCollarBears I believe is the other team that has not paid. I believe he had a problem with the site and asked for an alternate means of paying but was not responded to.

There was 160.00 collected. 2 members still need to pay. The pot should be 200.00. I Know Acedthesobrietytest posted on the league site wanting to know how to pay. The options you give for payouts show a pot of 100.00. What is up with this?

Bogus. Anyone who wants to can register with that site and post articles. We had a couple of guys register with this forum so they could post links to their articles on the Bleacher Report and spam our site. The articles sucked. If you notice Andy who wrote the article is mentioning himself as the beat reporter breaking the news for a program on the Score that does not even exist.

I found this article about Fewell. I am getting to like this guy. I hope when he interviews with us next week he does not leave without signing a contract. http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/...ccountable.html The title says it all: Bowen: Fewell would hold players accountable

Next offensive coordinator? Meet the candidates Here are 8 candidates that are speculated as being considered for our OC position.

Next defensive coordinator? Meet the candidates Interesting read mentioning what they feel would be the top 4 candidates for our new DC.

Would we really want Bates as an OC? He called plays for Denver but Shanny was actually playing the part of OC. He did prep Cutler, but would he accept a QB Coach job? From this excert from an article, it appears he had limited success as an OC for USC (last paragraph scares me).

A little over the edge I would say. You really expect 50,000 empty seats? They will be sold out. You really want to condemn Virginia M. to hell because she did not give you your wishes? From your post, you think Virginia was G Halas's wife? How about daughter. Sorry about you job loss, I am in the same boat. However, let's not lose touch with reality.

If there is someone on one of the 12 teams that are in the playoffs that they want to approach they may decide to wait until their team is eliminated or wins the SB but otherwise I suspect they will start the process immediately.

Many of us wanted Cowher. Jeff Fisher is well liked by most of us on the forum. I never cared for Holmgren, probably because he was HC of GBP but he was considered a very good HC. I am sure there was a time when fans wanted them fired as well when they missed the playoffs three years in a row. I think the moves today "COULD BE" significant enough to change things around. I want to wait and see who is brought in as OC & DC before I totally evaluate what I heard and saw at the news conference.

How can we predict our wins & loses when we do not know who will be our GM, HC, DC, OC etc.... Maybe we stay status quo, maybe we make changes How can we predict our wins & loses when we do not know how our roster's weaknesses are addressed via FA, trades, &/or the draft? I know we are beginning a long off season and we need to discuss something to keep from going crazy, but I think I will wait until some of the answers to the above are given before I will attempt to answer the question implied in this thread.

Great Job this year Noots. Thanks for all the great work you did over a very long year for us Bear Fans.

Yes, hope the New Year brings us all good health and best wishes. My Best Wish would be a Super Bowl caliber team, LOL.

Definately. I love our WRs development and think we have a great young core that will blossom. Last game against MIN our OL gave Cutler the protection he needed and we saw what happened. We need to go after FA OLmen that will strengthen our OL and make what we saw on last Monday night a routine instead of an exception. Our defense suffered greatly do to injuries. URL & Pisa were huge losses early in the year. Our DBs have had a lot of injuries this year. If we can bring in some talent on D fine, but I do not think the talent level of our players are lacking that much. We definately need to get better coaching. If we keep Anelo & Lovie, fine, but bring in a defensive and offensive coordinator to upgrade in both areas. Of course, I personally want to see Lovie gone and his crew replaced with the exception of a few. Hopefully Taub remains with the new staff, if replaced.

On the NFL Network they always have a session with the head of all the officials going over issues that came up during the games. I wish they would propose the question brought up in this thread to see what he would say.

Damn, I did not realize he was that big. It looked more like a DL or OL to me. We are talking the same pic? they have a new story up with Hunter about to tackle a guy. I am referring to the one with Cutler & Davis celebrating.

On the Chicago Bears website there is the article entitled "Reason to celebrate". In the pick is Cutler, R Davis, and ???? The third guy I can not see but only a part of his number. Looking at the roster and trying to figure out what number his jersey is I am at a loss. He is one huge & homely guy, LOL. Kinda guy who would star as the "horror" in a b horror flick.

Great Job Noots! The only disagreement I would have with your grades is STs. We did a good job in coverage of the Vikings' return teams. Harvin was pretty much taken out. Our return guys did an outstanding job of getting us great field position. Gould did miss one long FG but hit on the first 3. The blocked extra point was critical. I would have to give them an A.
