What’s your definition of an alcoholic?
Mark80 replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in Off the Wall Archives
You are an alcoholic if you are dependent on alcohol either physically or mentally. If you stop drinking and you have physical withdrawal symptoms, then you are an alcoholic. If you stop drinking and all you can think about is when you are going to drink again, then you are an alcoholic. Quantity doesn't matter really. It's dependence on it. Typical alcoholics will drink more because of tolerance build ups over time. -
Ever been taken to cleaner by the Tolls ?
Mark80 replied to Teddy KGB's topic in Off the Wall Archives
This is a problem around here too for the Grand Island bridges. The company they outsourced this too is coming under heavy fire for charging extreme late fees, like $50 for a $1 toll or something along those lines (at times without ever billing people the original toll via the mail as they are supposed to). They claim its because people don't have accurate addresses on file with the DMV. I'm calling BS. Luckily, I have an ez pass that automatically gets funded so I never run out and never get billed by the cash-less toll systems. But in general, their technology is not up to speed with the amount of traffic they handle and I would not at all be surprised if there is a class action law suit on this in the near future. -
Man, this is tough. Do you come up with the best of the best, or do you come up with who you think would sound the best together as a unit. Like, Ringo isn't the best drummer by any means, but he was absolutely perfect for the Beatles...alright here goes. Vocals - Janis Joplin Lead - Duane Allman Rhythm - Keith Richards Bass - John Paul Jones Drums - Jimmy Chamberlin ... what? Smashing Pumpkins drummer? Yes. He is an amazingly trained jazz percussionist with tremendous versatility who is highly underrated. Moon just wouldn't fit in right with this lineup I think. Keyboards - Ray Manzarek Lyrics - Bob Dylan I don't know producers or composers well enough to put in here.

McDermott is going to cost us in a big game
Mark80 replied to HomeskillitMoorman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You have no clue how the dynamics of a typical NFL coaching staff works then I guess. NFL coaches depend on their coordinators for play calling for the most part. This is even more true when it is the opposite side of the ball from where they got their experience. McD is a defensive coach. He has input on defensive play calling and has even taken it over, as we've seen. But, if you think he is calling offensive plays during the game you are, quite simply, clueless. Blame him for hiring Daboll and trusting him if you want. Blame him for making wrong 4th down decisions, but don't blame him for individual offensive play calls. That is simply not his responsibility on game day. End of story. -

Mark80 replied to HomeskillitMoorman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Guess I missed the part where McDermott started calling the offensive plays. Strange, I thought that would have made more news. Maybe you should be blaming Daboll for the play calls, not McD? Whether to go for it or not is on McD, but not the actual play calls. -
Not having Andrea Holmes hurt on special teams

Our special teams have been terrible all season. -
Christmas Movie All-Time Recommendations
Mark80 replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in Off the Wall Archives
My Favorites in Order: 1. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 2. Elf 3. Home Alone 4. A Christmas Story 5. Scrooged I do not consider Die Hard a Christmas movie as it really has nothing to do with the movie other than the reason for the party. -
Love that he is linking an article from October here. Classic.

Best Christmas Present You Ever Received as a Kid?
Mark80 replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Nintedo64, the year it was impossible to find. -
Right, but you are not already going to have plenty of money for that out of the $90? Why do you need $95M of cap space is what I'm saying.
-
When you have $90M in cap space and extra $5M doesn't mean anything. He played great last game too and you got a glimpse of the impact he can have when healthy. I just don't see how you are going to spend that extra $5M and make a better impact, so what's the point?

Trade for Sean Lee in the off-season

Dude is always injured. ALWAYS. -
It's his son.

If any company had the guts to say "we aren't apologizing for this, it's ridiculous" they would have a lifetime customer in me. I'm so sick of all the PC / SJW B.S.. What do you expect when you name your child something so idiotic. "Hey, look at me, I am so unique and clever with how I named my child." Too bad I didn't consider the impact it could have on them in their lives. So selfish. Such an idiot. You get what you deserve.

Robert Foster pays it forward to a young fan!

Already a thread on this here: -
Also a major contributing factor for sure. Like Nader costing Gore. But I think Perot's impact was more a result of the broken promise and the state of the economy at the time. Without those, Perot doesn't get the support he got.

There is medical proof that people can die from "broken hearts." This is very common in older folks who lost their spouse after decades of marriage. It causes chemical imbalances. I knew he wasn't going to last much longer after Barbara passed. Happened to my grandfather as well. I always like GW and felt he got a bad rap for the economy that wasn't his fault but more a result of Reagan's policies or the cyclical nature of the economy in general. Should have never said "Read my lips" during the campaign. That is what cost him the most.

This is so dumb and overplayed. You don't hit a woman if she is attacking your wife, your mother, your child? You don't hit a woman if she is attacking you with a knife or a baseball bat? You don't hit a woman if she is beating you over and over and won't stop despite you trying to walk away? It may take a lot, but to say you never hit a woman just because she is a woman no matter what she does is just asinine.

And we could have drafted Tom Brady at least 5 times and Gronk and Watt and OBJ and Antonio Brown multiple time and on and on and on. 20/20 in hindsight and all.

Hi. I watched one Cowboys game where the announcers, one of which is a former Cowboy himself, were gushing over some rookie LB. Now I'm convinced he's the greatest thing since sliced bread and a sure fire Hall of Famer. That is all.

Mark80 replied to The Poojer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agree, my post was ONLY about the money aspect of it. Was not attempting to put down the awesome gesture in any way. Was just saying that he can easily afford it when some were saying it was an awesome gesture especially considering his level of pay. -

Did you read the last paragraph? Never said it wasn't awesome, just calling out people saying that he doesn't make that much money. He makes more than 95% of the households in this country.
