Around SBN: NFL Roundtable: Which Draft Pick Is Most Likely To Bust?

Saturday 12.5.09 Open Morning Thread

I apologize, a slight miscommunication on my part caused there to be no open thread produced.  Here is the information on today's morning games. 

On ABC, we have the Big East matchup of Cincinnati and Pittsburgh.

On ESPN, we have the Big East matchup of West Virginia and Rutgers

On ESPN2, we have the Conference USA matchup of Houston and East Carolina.

And on CBS, there is a basketball game between North Carolina and Kentucky that might catch your eye!

And on Bravo, we appear to have a Real Housewives Of Atlanta Marathon.  Don't be Tardy To The Party now!

So, comment on all the games inside and anything else that might interest you on this lovely December morning.  GO BEARS!

Dion Lewis

Man, he’s pretty good. I don’t know how he was ranked 150th in the state of New Jersey among running backs. Matt Millen said that Lewis reminds him of Barry Sanders.

Very badweather there, so throwing might not be so prudent. Could benefit Pit if it restricts Pike at all.

Thanks for the updates Rated R Superstar, I really appreciate all the work that you do. Im fixated on the Real Houswives of Atlanta marathon, because I just cant get over how bad a wig Kim always wears. So, I appreciate the info.

Who do you think will win the Pit-Cin game? I think Cin will pull it off because their football team has already beaten Pit 2 times this year. They have the momentum when it comes to geographical football rivalries right now!

Andy Staples can explain my rationale better than I can:
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/andy_staples/12/04/texas-nebraska/index.html

Playoff lovers should back Texas, because in this case, chalk equals potential change. They should want Cincinnati to beat Pittsburgh, Boise State to beat New Mexico State and the Longhorns to throttle the Cornhuskers. That would set up a BCS title game between Texas and the SEC champ, which, besides being eminently watchable, would leave undefeated Boise State, Cincinnati and TCU on the outside looking in. That would invite more politicians always eager to siphon votes off an enraged fan base to join Sen. Orrin Hatch’s and Rep. Joe Barton’s crusade against the BCS.

Make no mistake, BCS officials are nervous about government intervention. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t have installed Bill Hancock as executive director/mouthpiece/whipping boy, and they wouldn’t have hired former George W. Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer’s PR firm to defend the BCS to an increasingly unhappy block of constituents.

A trio of undefeated teams with no chance to play for the national title would provide the best foil the playoff crowd can pit against the BCS. A TCU appearance in the BCS title game would be a thrilling example of the little guy crashing through a glass ceiling, but it would only embolden the men who foisted the BCS upon us.

So it may be counterintuitive, but if you love the status quo, cheer for Huskers to win a stunner. If you want a playoff, Hook ’em Horns.

by Rishi on Dec 5, 2009 10:25 AM PST up reply actions  

Seems like we’re going to have that problem regardless of Texas losing, cause TCU is undefeated already and Boise St. sure as hell isn’t losing. It would be nice if Cinci won too.

BCS Scenarios

Assuming Pittsburgh wins, they’d get the Big East automatic bid.

The four at-large bids would go to Boise State, Texas Christian, Cincinnati and the SEC title loser.

The six automatic bids would be Oregon, Ohio State, Pittsburgh, the SEC title game winner, the ACC title game winner and Texas.

Minnesota Vikings: Fastest football team, or dumbest football team?

The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS

Minnesota Vikings

Yeah, maybe with their cars they’re both the fastest and dumbest.

I’m usually not a law and order type, but it seems like driving over 100 should be like felony-endangerment or something. That’s how people die.

The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS

by norcalnick on Dec 5, 2009 12:18 PM PST up reply actions  

it’s my understanding that, at least in CA, if you’re caught going 100+ you can be charged with involuntary manslaughter or something to that extent. Not sure how it is in other states though.

i'm here to clean your pool but i don't have a pool *bowchica bowow*

by ch0ster on Dec 5, 2009 12:19 PM PST up reply actions  

in CA, driving over 100 is considered ‘reckless driving’, and is considered an automatic 2 points on your license and a possible 30-day suspension of your license.

I don’t know about every state, but I know that in Nevada, there is no speed that, by itself, is considered reckless. I also know that the top speed you can accelerate to in a mid-90’s Jetta is around 120, but if you can pick up some additional speed on a downhill, it will maintain 125.

So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!

They need the two-point conversion now since they couldn’t make a kick.
