  1. Keeping in mind that we could've had both of them
  2. The morals regarding vegetarianism vs. omnivorism are very interesting. Here are some immutable facts... 1. Humans are instinctively hard-wired to seek sustenance from both plants and animals. 2. Humans are capable of saying "no" to their instincts, unlike pretty much every other animal. 3. Humans have the dietary knowledge and technology to survive without eating meat of any variety. From a pragmatic standpoint, the debate should anticlimactically end right there. Do we want to eat meat? Yes. Can we be blamed for wanting to eat meat? No. Do we have to eat meat to survive? No. But then morals get involved. Is it RIGHT to take a life that could have been spared, even if it's for a useful purpose? Who the hell knows? Here's MY question...Why are some animals considered morally off limits for our diet? Why am I a weirdo if I eat a stray cat that I find outside? What if I WANT my tuna with a little smack of dolphin in it? If a bald eagle drops dead on my front yard, is it right to eat it for dinner? These are the questions that keep me up at night.
  3. Remember when everybody was soooo jealous of the playoff bound Jets and 49ers because they had fiery head coaches who yelled at people? Both of those teams are on major slides and currently stand at 4-6. Granted, I'd take both of them over Jauron, but can everybody finally agree that the degree to which a coach manifests his emotion on the sidelines has nothing to do with results? Mediocre coaches coaching mediocre teams.
  4. Doesn't have to be a big name coach...just a good one.
  5. It's not your fault http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY6k50qB4Ys
  6. Or Sabathia? Or Damon? Or Mo? Just a great group of guys in general.
  7. The legacy of a truly great man, Jim Henson, lives on in this program.
  8. This list is brought to you by uptight diners who like to make themselves feel superior by complaining about their server's innocuous mistakes.
  9. Wait a minute...you plan on proving that Ellison is bad by putting together a lowlight video? I could create a lowlight video of Brett Favre's worst interceptions...would that prove he sucks?
  10. NFL players drinking? I'm having trouble believing this one...
  11. I'm happy with the win too, but we must not forget how horrible Limp Dick is. Due to the win, his approval rating has jumped all the way to 14%. That is unacceptable. Let's drag that down. http://espn.go.com/nfl/sportsnation/coach?coachId=17 BYAH!!!!!
  12. If I'm not busy on Sunday, I'll probably throw on the game, but watching the Bills is no longer a high priority for me. This team is just a really really bad way to waste 3 hours at this point,
  13. I'd be interested in hearing the other side(s) of the story. Not saying that you're lying, but it isn't usually the case that people act like complete !@#$s for no reason whatsoever.
  14. Yeah! Let's sign one of the worst quarterbacks in (technically OUT OF) the NFL. The dude has 3 career TDs and 16 INTs. But he's the answer for the future because can "throw the ball through the wind". Trent is clearly showing his true stripes as a career backup, but he certainly isn't as bad as Andrew Walter of the career 52 QB rating.
  15. No, you must be mistaken. I almost never see Jake Locker on SportsCenter. You're probably thinking of Tebow, Bradford, or McCoy.
  16. Why does there have to be such a stubborn rule in the first place? Why not just deal with each incident on a case-by-case basis? In this case, I would sit the kid down and tell him that bringing his utensil to school is inappropriate even if he was just going to use it at lunch. If he gets caught using it again, suspend him for a few days. If a kid brings in a big butcher's knife for no reason whatsoever, suspend him for the full 45 days and have child protective services visit his house. Why does everything have to be so black and white?
  17. You mean you don't use your 45 as an eating utensil?

  19. That's why I deleted my post. Mea Culpa
  20. Yes, the Bills lost and that's never a good thing... BUT you've gotta like what you saw from the team today. 1. Trent is the QB of the future. Absolutely sick spirals today and you could tell he was upset after the INTs which is always a good thing. A decade from now we'll all be asking if Trent can win "one for the thumb". Also, we have a bold quarterback who isn't afraid to throw deep. That's how you get yourself intercepted but it's also how you gain many many yards. 2. James Reed. I don't know where we found this kid, but he's going to be a playmaker. Great reception in the end zone, hopefully more to come. 3. 6 sacks of the quarterback today. That's quite a few and sacks go a long way toward scoring points and field position. 4. Aaron Mayhem Mayben was all over the field. This guy fell to 11? wow! 5. Dolphins scored points with their running game, but Henney? We made this seasoned vet look like a rookie today. 6. I bet Rob Brando is on the phone right now to trade for Miami's fullback Polite...this guy was a monster (and hopefully a future Bill) Those are the things that stood out to me. We lost the game, but will win the war! I can see an 11-5 season and the playoffs, starting with a big win against a very tough Browns team (upset special!)
  21. I'd hazard to guess that Favre has thrown more checkdowns than any other quarterback in the NFL this year. His yards per attempt is a pitiful 6.0, lower than Trent's. Oh wait, I forgot Favre was still the Gunslinger, my bad.
  22. New life goal: Wait until there's only one more panda left on Earth, and then eat it. I also want to eat the next Triple Crown winning horse.
  23. Everybody knows that male pandas have difficulty mating in captivity because they are all just holding out for a 3-way.
