It was right over the plate...what was I supposed to do? You would have done the same thing. You HAVE done the same thing!

It seems that this whole Cutler thing has turned into a league soap opera. Was he too hurt to play? Did he not show enough emotions for the situation? I don't know. All I can go by is that past, and from that it seems that he is a pretty unemotional guy at times-- good and bad.

He played a half against the Giants earlier this year which I can say was the worst half of football I have ever seen. He got knocked out of the game by halftime with a concussion when I'm sure he was "knocked out" in the first quarter. He should have laid into his line, because they gave him no protection, but he didn't.

Either way, he was the quarterback of what I counted to be a 7-9 team to the NFC championship, so what can I say; Other than, in Chicago, when it comes to the quarterback position, we have to take what we can get.

I still have to say, "Thanks Denver," because he's better than Kyle Orton.

I went to go find a good Jay Cutler picture and I found this. No idea the background, afraid to look actually...



Maybe trade up, get a 6'5" 255 lb guy? Wait. That's me. You want someone who has muscle and the weight distributed more evenly... how about this 6'6" 250 lb guy:

ftb,

You are 6'5" and 255 lbs and fly airplanes for a living? What happened to football and/or basketball? You should be bling' bling' with cheerleaders, cars, and warrants out for your arrest. You are slummin' man.

As for the size of these rumored categories, who knows. The 320 does a ton of NYC flying too, but there is not talk of a base up there. It all comes down to the most efficient place for a crew to start and end a trip.
Actually, many of the pairing that have flying in and out of ATL do not have DH's in them (at least on the MSP 320). In the first half of your comment you say that because there is a lot of flying in and out of ATL, there will be a base there which will save DAL money yet at the end you say just because the 320 does a lot of flying in NYC, there isn't any talk of a base there because it is not efficient. This appears to be some very good double talk. Are you working on your campaign for a position in congress or DALPA?
