Da Bears holding them to 7....Bears D is on it now...Even Urlacher showed he had a little bit in those beat up legs...

not taking away from the Bears D, but the Lions shot themselves in the foot in the red zone on plays that should of been completed no problem.. you touch it, you catch it...gggrrrr

I agree...red zone deficiencies....killer.

yes it was silly.. guess off field these 2 have an issue, unfortunately brough it on field, but the parents really needed to back off and let the refs handle it, they only made it worse.

So much for good sportsmanship MCF. Yikes! Sad very sad.

I know SW, I wish our player had walked away, but I'm not sure how I would react after taking a punch to the head.. gggrrrr both are out for the season now, and on the league "list"

On a roll at the right time.....now Go Cards...what a series...that would be.

Go Tigers Go

Blackhawks fan here

At least the Tri-State has the Evansville Icemen and the ECHL

Redwings fan here! diehard! @ColtsFTW the Indiana Ice USHL team is a good one to get behind, young but a pretty good record for their short history. Both sides meet today and I think the revisions and overall proposal by the NHL looks good. The NHLPA is likely to take it. I can't see many reasons to not take it. Play ON!!!!!!!!!

Redwings and Blackhawks......Blackhawks used to be the 'major league team' for the Indianapolis Ice....and I spent a ton of time training in Detroit.

What does a Sheriff in a Western typically do? Keep everyone calm, never panic, & law done the law when he has to. Way to restore order, keep the peace, & reshuffle the AFC West Sheriff AKA Peyton! Even blowing tumbleweed doesn't defy Peyton. HA! HA! #18 is simply AWESOME!!!

Southwest for the win

Thanks for the complement AC17! It made me chuckle.

Broncs cannot afford to go 2-4....interesting AFC.....very weak compared to NFC too!

maybe everyone stayed up late watching baseball on Sat. night or didn't eat breakfast, I don't know but I couldn't believe my eyes with the games I watched

It does seem bizarre this year. Veteran teams continue to fall short & lose while young, upstart team's are winning. Very strange...Like blogger Jules said, it feels like a tectonic and titanic plates shift of the NFL’s elite teams right now.

My two as well!

Since my team is out of it..I don't care who wins as long as it isn't the Yankees...

Looks like two good series....Cards/Tigers...are my hopes. Have to feel for the Nationals....but then again shutting down the ace of the staff....was demoralizing to the DC fans, players, and manager Davy Johnson.

Another legend passed away... R.I.P.

Mongo died. Ah man, first John Wayne, then Bob Hope, & now Alex Karras is gone...Not a happy day at all. Sigh....

I remember watching him play, and he was a monster on the Lions' defensive line. And, of course, his legendary role in Blazing Saddles is unforgettable. Rest In Peace, Alex.

Good Point MCF.....4 games in for us....5 for others....who knows who will be injured: see RG3. Luck took a major shot too!

Yes, a rookie is still a rookie and eventually they all stumble and hit the wall their 1st year. Patience...Let's not get carried away here. I agree 100% MCF & Brent.

they're rookies and are doing their best to learn the system, and get used to NFL play and hits and I see posts with people taking shots at some of these guys and I just don't get it. Give the kids a break, let them develop.

A fantastic weekend....and gorgeous fall weather!!!!!

When things looked bleak did we bow our head in in dismay? Did we throw in the towel? Did we roll over & play dead? Bleep No! We stuck our head in the teeth of the lion and tamed the beast into a little kitty cat with a defiant roar of our own named Reggie Wayne. "To strive, to seek, to find, to annihilate, & never to yield!" The sleeping Blue Monster has now awoken.

Wear pink and orange proudly...and of course horse-shoe blue!!

You can include me in this prayer chain MCF. May all your friends & family demolish Cancer dead in it's tracks for good. Hang in there HCF.

you are there SW, you bet! Keep fighting

You have hit the BMc pet peeve. Special teams....how many times have you read me discuss them? Kicking the ball to Percy Harvin at all....straight down the middle. Tynes was just short...but again...special teams...There are 3 phases to the game.....Hire me please. I am ready.

ridiculous missed tackles, some of the worst I've seen! I wish they would hire you!!!!!!!!!!

One time the guys was barely touched.....inexcusable...

Get over it MI!!! It was yesterday, we're looking to the future.

it's making me cranky.. good thing the Colts have a bye.. I may not dvr a single game this coming weekend.

I hear Ya MCF. It's disheartening, pathetic, and glaringly horrible to say the least. I'm disgusted with the NFL right now. What integrity does the NFL right now? None...Just ask the GB Packers right now or the NE Patriots. Oh wait, here comes the car full of clowns now. Be careful NFL. A Natl. Joke is no laughing matter. Save your dignity as a professional sport please...I beg you.

what is Art Prize?

Fine art, fine culture, & an exquisite taste in friends...Wow, I make it sound like a Russian caviar TV commercial didn't I? HA! HA! Have a marvelous time together MCF

hang in there!

Why do bad things happen to nice people and colossal sad excuses for human beings survive a nuclear explosion without even a scratch on them? 1 of life's universal enigmas I guess...My friends don't deserve to be treated like this. EVER!!!

oh no Brent that is terrible! I just don't get how people can justify stealing like that.

Just a gorgeous weekend...loved it. Glad you had a great one too!

hip hip horray!

Sometimes, the stars just line up and perfection simply follows suit.

Ah, the joys of being a soccer mom. Been there, done that from crutches to casts. Hope your daughter heals speedily and the best of luck in that tourney.

Seems like just last week in the doctor's office....poor young lady! Cast? Soft cast?

You are a great mother MCF. I hope that your daughter and her wrist is mending as well as can be expected.

Man, those girls our yours have some serious Futbol skills. WOW! Somewhere 2 time Olympic Gold Medalist Hope Solo is Sweet!!!

8-0 thrashing....WOOO HOOO!!!

my 14 year olds new team. It's unfortunate they would not let them play in the elite division, they made them play U16 2nd division because they are "too young". I think they should of let them play elite after seeing this first game. It wasn't as bad as the score sounds though, they actually had to work hard for the shut out, but their defense was lacking.

Very Impressive MCF!!! Your girls didn't just take their competition out behind the woodshed. They knocked the woodshed down too. Just Kidding!!! It sounds like a well earned and well fought victory indeed. Congratulations to their entire team!!!

Thank you for bringing in our canine heroes....very well stated...

Days like 9/11 sure make you appreciate your family, your friends, & your blessing. And the infamous words of the passengers on the downed plane in Pennsylvania "Let's Roll."

I thought the Lions were doomed...Stafford made it happen after some early problems. I only saw the last drive or two at the end. Good to hear at least one replacement referee had a good day

Both your Bears & Lions look Playoff bound this year to me MCF!!!

I hope for the Lions...they did not play that well, they have a lot to clean up. I think the 49ers and the Ravens look like forces to be reckoned with. The Bears, they should have a great season. I'm not a big fan of Cutler or Lovie, but still my #3..Broncos could steal this position though ;)

I made it...ready to drop I despise the Dallas Cowboys......Jerry Jones makes me physically ill.

I'm with you on that.. the shot of the dude behind him cleaning his glasses for him and he hands them back to JJ and he doesn't even acknowledge his existence, let alone say thank you.. geesh! Giants beat themselves, what is up with Cruz and the dropsies? YIKES!

Cruz was very bad....sophomore jinks?

so glad we don't start school prior to labor day...best law they ever put on the books here! @Brent, good job, I bet that was fun, as long as you didn't have to help with anyones hair! my girls spent the weekend picking outfits and worrying about their lockers not fitting all their sports stuff, hope they were able to cram it in there!

No hair duty for me...HA HA! She would have looked like Que! SW....I missed out on kids for way too long! I will not screw it up!! Unless of course I burn breakfast...

I wish it was later here as well....so the pools would stay open longer...

I always chuckle when I hear kids fret over their looks & outfits on the first day of school like a first date or prom dance occasion or something. Of well, I guess we were all young once too I suppose right? I'm sure your girls will be just fine MCF. They'll find a way to make all their books, pens, & personal momentos to fit in their school lockers I'm sure.

pretty sure it's a law if you take the last of it, you have to make more, not leave the pot on burning the bottom... ?????

Never have that problem with my Keurig coffee maker and every cup is deliciously fresh.

Not a big coffee drinker MCF. But, I wish you luck in your search for caffeine.

Funny Barry.

I've always had a soft spot for the Lions simply because I love their uniforms (and cats).

Other than that, they've never been easy to like though. This group is turning me off too.

you are all funny guys... I'm still a fan.. 30 NFL player arrests over summer, not all thugs reside in DTown...Berry was "released", shown the door and I appreciate how the org. dealt with that. Also looking forward to see if a hometown 2008 grad. will be on the field kicking for the Bills tonight! I just love football! And not every team can be as classy as the Colts

Absolutely, MCF root for your Lions. We all have more than 1 NFL team that we follow. I just hope keeps his cool in critical game situations this year. Yes, the Colts exemplify dignity, honor, & class certainly, but we don't exclusively corner the market on decorum either.
