  1. I've only really read of Schobel having a bad attitude towards the press. And while he doesn't show-up to OTA's, he still keeps himself in shape.
  2. Compared to the Hitler-TO video, that many seemed to think was the greatest thing since sliced bread (I thought it was okay...back 7 years ago when I first saw it when it was about Bledsoe being traded to the Bills), the production values aren't even close. But that video, as I said, was taken from a Hollywood movie and someone pasted subtitles on it. Not too hard to do and it didn't take much creativity, outside of coming-up with a funny line or two. If you can get past the production values and rap song, this video is actually a pretty good satire of the "TO is a cancer" saga, as well as being a creative piece of work for the reasons I mentioned. Maybe if the creator had more time and resources, or could have taken a pre-made film and rap over it, it would look as glitzy as the other one. Welcome to the world of celebrities, Sen. They are who they are because of what they are. Many are insecure and self-centered, mostly from troubled upbringings. If you read TO's autoiography, you'd realize that the kid had several strikes against him from the start. But he managed to make something of himself. He's a great player and he's never been in legal trouble, which more than a few people here these days seem to think are the most important things (witness the attitudes towards JP and Lynch). Except when said player is a "media whore." My advice is to stop worrying about his off-field stuff, unless it involves legal action taken against him. Concern yourself more with his on-field performance.
  3. Not exactly. Romo has had no problem throwing the ball more to Jason Witten the past 2 seasons. What the Jones' are saying is that TO was the actual leader of the offense, but they want Romo to be the leader, to grow up, get in shape, and take his job more seriously.
  4. That was my second favorite part.
  5. Actually Sen, it was directed at people like you, who think that TO is a "criminal," or even a "cancer." The part where they interview TO after a loss and ask him whether Tony Romo has to play better and he says "well, we all have to play better," while the voice-over is saying "Don't kill the team! Don't kill the team!" is priceless! Now I know it doesn't have the professional look of say, taking a Hollywood-produced film with actors speaking a foreign language and putting-in funny subtitles (and repeating the schtick every few years, as it jumped the shark when it was about Bledsoe going to the Bills), but the effort to cull together video footage, images, and parody the lyrics was noteworthy. And I know the rap music throws a lot of people off. I think it will be my version of the Peter Pan guy. Or that lame "you got Rick Rolled" thing.
  6. Not surprising. That's one of the reasons the Eagles jettisoned him (along with his contract dispute). TO is a well-liked teammate. That's not saying everyone likes him, but most do.
  7. The irony of this paragraph is that you've never met the man and obviously formed your opinion SOLELY based on what the media has reported to you. And for you, all you care to know is "he destroys teams." But you're convinced that they've portrayed him 100% accurately, right? And while he's admittedly a media whore, he's never had any off-field incidents and is a great player on it. Yet players like Lynch and Hardy deserve your scorn for their off-field indiscretions, and Lynch is a great player on the field. Curious.
  8. I wonder if this one is a bastard as well.
  9. LOL! The Commish can do nothing about it.
  10. I realize it went over a lot of peoples' heads. I am sorry for that.
  11. Bingo. Name any Patriots player.
  12. It's called "satire." And at worst, it's payback for posts 74, 77, 80, etc.
  13. Don't you know? TO is a...
  14. When does the Queen move into her Bufftown home? Did TV crews go through it before she bought it and gave permission? And why pay double the house's value?
  15. Why wouldn't Reebok allow any other logos on their uniforms? I'm sure the potential advertisers would compensate them, as well as the NFL and/or Reebok wouldn't have to pay the NFL as much as before. I'm sure the European leagues use apparel companies who also want just their logos displayed, but have agreed to put others' on there.
  16. Per Fingon, it's $500 per year, not month, which isn't too bad. Although I haven't checked-out the veracity of that statement.
  17. It's more likely that the Bills had no interest in Willy.
  18. Yes, because of the lack of news of how great Maybin, or any other rookie DE for that matter, has looked so far. And the talk about EB probably is more propaganda than anything else, to get Peppers into minicamps.
  19. I'm not disputing that an umbrella policy isn't expensive. I'm saying that the section you quoted said that Stallworth is paying the family money outside of what the insurance company will pay. You said that the insurance company is the only one paying the family.
  20. He's talking about Stallworth. And you are correct that there was never any report, or even evidence, that Lynch was drunk that night.
  21. Now, now, I'm sure that screams "hetero!" to Mr. WEO.
  22. If you're trying to imply that he's gay, he's got a bastard kid, just like your boy Brady. So...
  23. I'm not saying they should lock him up for life. But 30 days seems unconscionable for a guy who has a history of alcohol abuse and who got behind the wheel drunk. Regardless of how much the family was paid-off or agrees with the outcome. If he was sober, this wouldn't have been an issue. And at worst, he probably would have gotten a traffic ticket for "failing to avoid hitting a pedestrian" like Lynch got (for accidentally and unknowingly hitting that woman).
  24. Don't hate the playa, hate the game.
  25. Shocker, isn't it? Your point is wasted on this clown.
