Agreed, no way they kill him off 2 episodes in. I mean, he's the first actor listed in the opening credits, you know? Anyone else think Vince Vaughn's girl is pretty funky looking? Rachel McAdams on the other hand, holy smokes.

Yeah, it was more of a tongue-in-cheek type statement I was making. I'm HOPING for around $8M, but understand that is a cup 4/5ths full type expectation.

A bit of your favorite jelly in the middle of an omelette is, amazingly, pretty darn good especially if you have a salty meat in there (bacon, ham, sausage). Discovered this by accidentally getting jelly on my eggs once from the toast. It was actually OK, moved up to putting my scrambled eggs on my toast with jelly. Moved up to adding a bite of sausage with said toast, jelly, and eggs and this is when it really popped. Then, finally to just making an omelette with it in there. I know it's weird, but it's damn good.

Good, hopefully he won't require star CB money to re-sign.

4-methylimidazole has shown more direct link than aspartame. To each their own, will it matter down the road? Probably not, could it? Maybe. However, there was a time when smoking was only "thought" to have a linkage as well. Just don't be one of those I'll have a Big Mac / Large Fries / Diet Coke types and it's all good to me.

Nicolas Cage dressed as a bear punching a woman in the face in the movie "Wicker Man." That was pretty funny.

Diet Coke as an example: Mostly because of 4-methylimidazole and aspartame which are thought to increase risk of cancer as well as phosphoric acid which kills tooth enamel. Not to mention the "Natural Flavors" - if they were so natural, don't you think they would actually be listed? sort of a catch all of B.S., I mean, everything is created from something natural in one way shape or form. Also some studies have shown that diet soda actually increases cravings for sweets, which cause some people to consume empty calories from other sweet sources after the cravings. Personally, I rather drink the normal soda with all the calories and less chemicals. Just look at it as a treat instead of a source of hydration and it's fine.

Yes. I was actually told this by a fitness trainer I was seeing way back in 2005/6. I thought she was full of crap. Turns out she was just ahead of the curve on this one. Only works for high intensity workouts though. Personally, I don't work out that hard anymore to where the benefits are outweighing the negatives on such a thing, but for you, yep, it's perfect. I have to disagree with you on the bottle one. It's the same Coke product, but there is just something about the bottle that makes it taste better and more refreshing in my opinion. I'm not referring to the Mexican Coke bottles (as I believe those ones are cane sugar) just the normal US ones.

Cornell Dairy whole chocolate milk. Certainly not something you want to make a habit of drinking, but it is simply phenomenal. And an ice cold glass bottle of Coke on a hot day is pretty tough to beat. I don't drink too much soda anymore so when I do, I usually try to find the glass bottles. Although much more expensive, the taste is noticeable better and with the amount of soda I drink it doesn't really matter how much it costs. To the diet soda drinkers though...are you worried about all the chemicals in it them that make it "diet"? You're better off drinking regular soda in the long run, plus, they have been shown to increase other food cravings which will often eliminate any calorie savings. To each their own, but those artificial sweeteners scare me.

So the Bears success was about studs like Duerson, Fencik, Frazier, and Richardson? And not about guys like Singletary, Dent, McMichael, Marshal, Perry, Wilson, and Hampton? Yeah, ok. A dominate front 7 can make any DBs look great. The same cannot be said about dominate DBs for the front 7. But to your main point, yeah they were unbelievable and so were the Ravens as pointed out above.

This is another reason I like Kessler. By most accounts he should be around throughout the first (at this point) because of his perceived "average" arm strength and we wouldn't need to do something like this. We all know the risks of the vast majority of first round QB picks. I'd rather not further increase that risk by trading more picks to take one higher as I don't see any of these guys as Luck/Peyton level of "sure thing."

Dumbest argument ever. I emplore you to name me a single college program that has 2 current "good" NFL QBs from it? The fact is, every single program has QBs that were good at the college level and then were not as good at the NFL level. This is the laziest argument regarding a QB that is possible. USC isn't even under the same coaching staff anymore. Just so dumb. And it's not like they are running a Houston offense, they run a pro-style offense vs high caliber defenses. Guess we can't draft Cook because Michigan State doesn't have any good QBs from there, or Hackenberg since Penn State doesn't either. Cardale Jones? Nope, don't you remember Troy Smith??? Dak Prescott? Name me a single other Miss St. QB you have ever even heard of. Sudfield, Boykin? Nope, nope. Well, guess that means Hogan is the only one that has any shot at any career based on all the QBs that share the same schools as these guys. But then again, but they seem to do it only every 30 years so we have 25 more to wait to hit on another Stanford QB. Again. so dumb. Just curious. 70% completion, 39 TDs vs 5 INTs and a 167 passer rating is not putting it all together for a season? Jeez, I wonder what his stat line will be if he does. He also had a very nice 2013 with 3000 yards, 65% completion and 20/7 TD/INT. Most notably though he improves yearly. You guys just want to hate on a guy for the sake of hating on him or because of what QBs from his school did in the NFL. So funny.

You were probably thinking more along the lines of attempted murder rather than assault with a deadly weapon.

On a side note, Ballers was absolutely unwatchable and the Brink was far from impressive (although I may give that on another episode or two, but Ballers, done already). Ballers is basically trying to replicate Entourage with a sports scene in stead of the Hollywood scene but without characters like Drama, Ari, and Turtle it just is not even coming close.

Cody Kessler should be available in the first round and he is exactly what we need. An extremely accurate passer who makes very few mistakes. He has all the makings of being the next Drew Brees IMO and we should be all over him.

Yeah but if you couple that with what he's done over the last 4 seasons it doesn't take much to put 2 and 2 together that he is not looking like an improvement over two younger guys with a much higher upside at this stage of their careers.

Civil - Preponderance of the evidence Criminal - Beyond a reasonable doubt Death Penalty - 100% certain, no ifs ands or butts about it, this person did it. The last one should be the law. This could, potentially, impact the extensive costs of all the appeals and drag outs that a lot of us are concerned about concerning the death penalty (not to mention the biggest issue, killing the wrong person). It has always amazed me that there isn't a higher standard for this than other criminal proceedings. This looks to be one of those 100% certain cases at this time.

Just curious, what murders are not fueled by hate of some sort? As long as we keep segregating things in the media, law, our conversations, we are never going to make any progress on these race issues and never have true equality where race is seen on a level of having blond hair vs brown hair or blue eyes vs green eyes. Hate crime? Sure, hate against the HUMAN race.

So...you're going to steal the broadcast over the internet and you are calling them the thieves? Cool story bro.

Our defense is not trying to kill our own QBs though via the pass rush. That's a huge element of the passing game that is, in all reality, removed from a practice scenario. Yeah, they may get in, but I'm not too worried about being "touched" compared to in a real game when I'm worrying about 300lbs of muscle slamming me to the ground if I don't get rid of it quick enough.

I didn't know the Buffalo News still existed.

Thanks, but I get plenty of coverage. He was asking why more people weren't interested and that's a major part of the reason.

ESPN covers woman's college softball more than they cover soccer. Quite frankly, they should be embarrassed on their lack of coverage on this. They follow around Tim Tebow 24/7 for weeks, but give us about 1 minute on SportsCenter and a Bob Ley outside the lines. I can pretty much guarantee you that Bob Ley has been there long enough to do whatever he wants on that show and that is why he IS covering it. However, for the rest of the network, since soccer isn't even on ESPN outside of MLS (mostly on ESPN2) they would rather cover and promote what they are getting putting on their airwaves...thus, women's college sports coverage, tennis coverage, etc. It's beyond annoying to me.

Fantastic.
