Yeah, 66 yards on that punt.

Incomplete! Ball over on downs to SD. Colts are out of time outs...so NOW the game is over...Chargers at Patriots for the AFC Championship, people.

Billy Volek the hero for the Chargers??

I think calling the Colts season "over" with 1:30 left is a bit stupid.

Obviously not manning choked again!

Gordon appears to be learning, albeit very slowly.

When he figures out you don't just shoot bad, but actually make 0 shots, then he will get to start again.

SCREW THE COLTS! YES! YES!

That was in retaliation for our Super Bowl loss last year.

Well im convinced now that we really are a lotto team. If it wasnt for a total collapse by the Sixers it would have been back to back 20pt losses.

chicago needs a decent PG, that's all ... Ben Wallace is better than Kirk

Wow. This is absolutely horrifying.

1. Bad coaching.
2. Wallace's turnover / standing and watching the three was stunning.
3. This team has fallen apart again after their 5-day honeymoon.
4. Trade deadline deal is coming. Good buy half of "core" plus Wallace, and I won't miss you. Lottery here we come.

I thought our team was on the Detroit routing; each year you see steady improvement, you expect it to continue, and get better as you keep adding depth and talent. In a shocking turn of events, we have declined, severely.

I thought so too. Surprising.

As for the Bulls. I don't know. I just won't say anything I guess.

Philip Rivers is such an ass, though...he was yelling at the Colts fans after the game...he yells at everybody these days. He needs to just shut up...he wasn't even in the game to lead the winning drive

Bulls still haven't won a game this season when they give up 100+ points

NoSkyy · Post #393 » by **NoSkyy** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 9:25 pm

I can't even watch the Bulls anymore.

Official Veektor sighting!!!

Bulls_Dynasty6 · Post #396 » by **Bulls_Dynasty6** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 9:27 pm

Chargers refused to quit today.

2nd string QB
2nd string RB
Antonio Gates out

And they just handled the Colts. Although, Philip Rivers is one annoying SOB.

*Don't result to insults-Tek*. This game was lost on the defensive end in the first half. Hawks players were wide open and were able to get to the rim with no trouble at all.. This was a team wide (lack of) effort. I didn't atch much of the 2nd half, but from what I did see, the only player who was any good on offense throughout the game was Deng. Nocioni was ok, but everyone else flat out stunk on offense. And although I saw some decent defense from Thabo and Joe Smith on a couple of possessions, for the most part I saw no one on the Bulls even attempt to play defense. The play that underlined this was when Johnson stole the ball, stood in the corner for like 5 seconds without ANY Chicago player even attempting to run over to him to contest the shot. That basically was the defense for the whole game. The only reason why the Bulls go the lead down below 15 points briefly in the 2nd half is because Atlanta got sloppy with the ball and started missing a few of the shots they had made in the 1st half.

This was a major league butt whooping from the getgo. This Bulls team continues to just really disappoint me. Is it too much to expect some effort and execution on both ends of the court from the beginning to the end of a game? I can't think of more than one or two games all season where there has been a good effort from the start of the game to the end. That's just sad.

I know that we're all frustrated and pissed. Please lose the personal attacks, though. Kirk was indeed terrible today, so it's no big stretch for someone to wish for a player like Chris Paul (although of course we're not going to get one). You don't have to go on the offensive every time someone attacks Kirk. This just happens to be a godawful season for him so far. I hope to heck that he can turn it around and get back to the level that he'd established in his earlier NBA career. People don't usually just fall off the shelf like that.

Bottom line is that Kirk and a bunch of other players stunk, and we got blown out by a mediocre team, and the future is not looking bright for us at all.
