USC Wuz Robbed!

Maybe Marvin trusts a game vs Derek Anderson than a game vs Brady Quinn?

I understand that, the problem with this is it means the Patriots gets ONE mid 1st round pick to play with instead of one mid 1st round pick and one late 1st round pick instead. How is that really punishment? Because instead of grabbing a DE and a FS, they can only grab the DE? (addressed to cheech13)

Well with how often Kornheiser and Wilbon take off from the show, they might as well just do alternating duos format, Kornheiser/Wilbon and Lebatard/someone.

If it was me, this might be harsh, but I'd have taken away all their picks for the 2008 draft and suspended the coaching staff 4 games. But that's obviously overkill.

Why? Wilbon seems more knowledgable on sports than Kornheiser. If I have Lebatard replacing anyone, it's Kornheiser.

No. It's Derek Anderson, Ken Dorsey (who they re-signed after trading Frye) and then Quinn. Yes you heard that correctly, Quinn is STILL #3 on the depth chart. This is not to say Quinn won't see time, since Crennel said himself that he might if the situation called for it.

Well let's be honest here. I doubt the Rock is getting looks for the heavy hitters. This is probably the best he gets offered.

Really? You don't want the QB whose gesturing at the line of scrimmage leads to defensive implosion just watching him?

That's showing them. "You lose the #28-32 pick but you get to keep the #14-16 pick!"

Now see, I read it wrong then. I thought you meant panel-ed basement chat like SNL's skits about the Bears fans.

Don't the Patriots have the SF pick too?

If it is one team per week I want to call a mulligan on the Bears. That was a horrible week 1 title.

The Packers do have an elite defense. Well yeah I thought so, but I wasn't sure about the numbers so I hedged my bets on that.

You're right. I didn't look at his stats for Sunday (16 out of 21 for 167 yards and 2 TDs/0 INTs). That's not bad. I guess they want someone more "dynamic" that "creates" plays when needed to be. What I find odd is that the Jets' most famous and beloved quarterback is the guy that they probably would be booing if he played in today's era. Guess a brash guarantee can make or break a guy's career ("We want the ball and we're gonna score!" would attest to that).

It's probably a meaningless coincidence but I find it funny that the guy the Rock had the most limited interaction with in that Evolution vs Rock n Sock handicap match at Mania is the guy HHH works to get over (Batista).

I can understand the Jets fans frustration though. Chad Pennington is not probably a QB that can lead them over the hump. Sure he went to the playoffs last season, but that could be a fluke. The fact is he looked lost against the Patriots that was missing Seymour and Harrison. Now this is not to excuse their cheering a supposedly injured Jet.

Is this a serious post? I think New England can slow down LT, but not as well as Chicago did. I hope Merriman eats Brady for dinner though.

I don't know. I think Green Bay's defense is very underrated and I dare say almost an elite defense.

I'm buying it, but I can see how the casual "nu-gen" fans would be turned off by the graphics.

Not everyone reads Chocolate Socket threads.

Obviously they could go the Cena DQ for Unforgiven like you said, then go to No Mercy with the "Cena loses the belt on DQ" and go to either an Orton DQ or a double countout or a double DQ, then the fans vote on the stipulations for Cyber Sunday, which if you notice, are all stipulations leaving little room for a non-finish (HIAC, Last Man Standing, etc).

No, the next PPV is No Mercy. Cyber Sunday is after that.

Brawls yes, castration no.

Someone mentioned Belichick's favorite movie was The Sting. Maybe he just wanted to con people for the hell of it? He strikes me as a big enough asshole to do it.
