How did New England go 13-3 and New York 9-7 when New York has the better overall talent? Oh yeah, cuz New England has Tom Brady and doesn't have Tom Coughlin. I forgot. Btw, no one's noticed this, but New York was actually outscored on the season lol, 394 points for, 400 against. That's...

I stopped playing attention to who gets voted for the all star game when in 2001 Grant Hill and Alonzo Mourning got voted in after playing a combined four (!!) games and Yao Ming was guaranteed a spot annually cuz he happens to be Chinese. Clearly, the lineups shoulda been.... East Derrick...

The real answer is a tie between Real Madrid-Barcelona and Celtic-Rangers. Not only are they fierce on-field rivals, but the rivalries transcend sports and enter the socio-political realm. Nothing in American sports could even approach the magnitude of these two rivalries.

Mourinho.

Wes Morgan leaves Forest for Leicester Fucking City :(

I'll gladly take this mild winter, as it's my first cold weather winter in quite a while.

I don't understand why so many people say it's disgusting. There are so many teenage models and performers out there, they wouldn't be any different. Miley don't do nothing for me, but Selena......she's cute.

As a Magic fan, the only guy that mildly interests me that we could get in return for Dwight is Bynum. I guess Deng, Noah, and a couple 1s woulodn't be terrible. Dallas don't have jack **** of interest (I mean unless Dallas gives up Dirk), and Lord help me if we get Brook Lopez, aka the rich...

Because the X Games are on.

You are right, Love is the best PF. But the goal isn't to just stick the best player at each position, it's to field a balanced team. Kevin Love's offensive repertoire does not rival Aldridge's, only Chris Bosh could compare. It's more than just layups and 3pointers. And Kevin Love is a...

Interexting topic. Mine would look like this, I have guys who compliment each other's talenbts playing together.... PG Chris Paul SG Kevin Durant SF LeBron James PF LaMarcus Aldridge (underrated as fuck) C Dwight Howard Paul is perfect at the point, distributor and fantastic first line of...

It should be Cote d'Ivoire, but they are Spain pre-2008. So much talent, so little to show for it.

1hZKN4AZ63g&ob=av2e 13CJ77DGsBI 1mt3vZHDiM8 While stupid ass gangsta rap was popular on the west coast, this gold was being overlooked.

Because Love isn't a max guy. Just because other guys that are worse than him have gotten max money doesn't justify him getting it. It shows that they are being responsible (hear that, Atlanta, New York, Orlando and Washington?). I just think it's not out of the realm of possibility that at...

All I really know about Pagano is that when he was in Oakland, our defense was actually half decent, under Rob Ryan, who shoulda been hired as head coach instead of Art Shell, Lane Kiffin and Tom Cable.

Just when you thought the Suns were turning the corner.... :facepalm: Btw very good win, a blowout at Indiana for the Magic, Indy's first home loss. Dwight becomes the all time leading scorer in Magic history. Not bad considering what T-Mac and Penny did while they were playing in the O-rena.

Oh Boy, Giants and Patriots. Now ESPN can spend even more time talking about Boston and New York. Anyone else feel like the playoffs are a little diluted when a team who was 7-7 a month ago is in the Super Bowl? Meanwhile a team that went 15-1 loses just their second game and is out. Just...

Garnett would be a good pickup for a team who needs some toughness inside (Miami, Philadelphia), and Allen would be a good fit for a team looking for outside shooters/3rd option (Chicago, New York). Paul Pierce ain't gonna find many suitors cuz he doesn't fit a role, he'd be most effective in...

They should play a game in Lansing, Toledo, and Windsor. At least those games would draw an audience, if only for one night.

Even with Peyton, the Jets are not a Super Bowl contender. Their running game is overrated, the defense is regressing alarmingly, and let's not forget that in 2010 Peyton Manning regressed and had an INT problem, and will be coming off a major injury. Plus Peyton Manning would basically the...

San Fran don't host many playoff games no more, but when it does, it's always magic. Terrell Owens (before he became TO) catches the game winning TD against Green Bay and cries tears of joy, the Giants fuck up the game winning field goal and the officials fail to call PI, and now the 4 TD in 4...

Next year's champion will come from the Pac-12. I guarantee it. The winner of the Pac-12 title game, Oregon or Southern Cal, will win the national title. Mark it down.

Who needs to learn academics when you can get by playing football?

Magic are 8-3. Yup, keep ******** on us. Btw this only proves that Dwight Howard is the most valuable player in the league. The best players on the team other than Dwight are named Ryan Anderson, JJ Redick, and Glen Davis. Don't even try to convince anyone that Jameer Nelson and J-Rich are...

The Canucks? That's retarded. Vancouver is on the other side of the country. I would think Detroit and Pittsburgh teams would get more airtime than Vancouver. It's not like I get Seattle sports in Detroit. No, but I did notice some chick with huge tits and major cleavage behind the Magic's...

Wow, kudos to you for actually watching the two worst teams in the entire league. True basketball fan, you are. The only reason I'd even consider watching that is to watch Detroit's own Jordan Crawford, aka the dude who embarrassed LeBron so bad LeBron had to hide the tape.

Congrats to Jagger and the other dude, well done! Thanks bodie for organizing the contest, as well as everyone who added to the fun by participated, whether by submitting their picks or commenting on this very thread. It was a joy.

In all fairness, I think Dirk should be rewarded the title if there's a 3-way tie for correctly getting the national champion correct as a tie-breaker. In the case of a 2-way tie, I side with the guy we've actually heard of (sorry Demon....whoever you are)

Not everyone is from one area and so their teams are pretty obvious. I like teams that my ****** liked, and I have ****** in different areas. I took my grandfather's baseball team, my ******'s football team, the basketball team (well one of em) from my ***'s home state, and the hockey team...

Despite the loss, I tip my cap for the season Kansas State had. If they were from Manhattan, NY instead of Manhattan, KS, they'da been in a BCS bowl.

I had a nightmare last weekend that Denver made the playoffs and went on to win the Super Bowl. Scary ****.

How is Channing Frye 2nd in the league in rebounds per 48 minutes? That's like Blake Griffin being 2nd in assists.

When I turned the game on and West Virginia had 70 points, I had to double take. That's fucking ridiculous. Whoever is Clemson's DC better ready up his resume. Their last 8 games they've given up 45, 38, 31, 28, 37, 34 , 10 and 70. That's terrible.

I'm fucked. All well. I congratulate myself for erasing the memory of last year's embarrassment of last place and giving it a good run. Also, may I give props to Jag, Dirk, Demon, and Mind for their impressive performances, as well as Deshawn for his honesty. And above all, bodie for his...

It's been 5-6 games, my friend. I'm not buying the Hawks or Blazers. Atlanta in particular I just think they are poorly coached. Not to say I could very well be wrong. Anyone saying Chicago's not legit is a moron. They are talented and deep. Which is why Derrick Rose was not the most...

Maybe the Chargers owner is too cheap to fire Norv Turner and AJ Smith. It's a whole lot cheaper than a severance package and hiring someone else. Robert Sarver, Donald Sterling, Bill Bidwell and William Clay Ford know what I'm talkin bout.

Can't be good news for Caldwell. He doesn't have the built up goodwill that Irsay had, and that wasn't even enough to save Irsay. Their whole situation seems a bit messy. Seems to me that they want a fresh start, and that starts with freeing up a load of money by saying bye-bye to Peyton Manning.

I'm not so sure it's so fluky when they nearly won in Orlando the night before, before losing a 14 point lead in the 4th.

I don't understand how WKU went 7-1 in their conference, and got ****** up for a team that went 5-3 in the same conference with the same schedule, FIU. They need to conform more to the standings on these selections. Same **** as the Citrus Bowl taking 5-3 Nebraska instead of 7-1 Michigan...

Ridiculous

Raiders won all 3 road division games, and lost all 3 home division games. Go figure. Unfortunately, I was dead on in my assessment of the Carson Palmer trade. Now we're out a 1st and 2 nd round pick, all for nothing, as we missed the playoffs, and now we have an inferior QB, Palmer instead...

Seriously. He just about dominated the pick 'em every week.

There would be no need for those guarantee games, as in my alignment, those four teams are all in the same division.

It is a bit odd......I woulda went more geography-centric. This alignment would preserve rivalries, with 1 guarantee intra-divisional opponent, which I went ahead and listed. And Vandy is just as far west as Alabama and actually more westward than Auburn, so you can't question the geography...

Wow, I'm already halfway to my total last year :1orglaugh

My bold predictions for the season: Sixers win the Atlantic Pacers finish with a winning record Eric Gordon averages at least 25 ppg in NO Clippers win 40+ games, but lose in the 1st round James Harden shaves at some point

Matt Stafford, Tony Romo, and Cam Newton all deserved Eli Manning's Pro Bowl spot more. Stafford in particular easily dwarfs Manning's candidacy. What a joke.

You're welcome. I myself have got a soft spot for Celtic.

You're telling me Kwame Brown is worth $2 million more a year?

Todd Graham? Ugh.
