No specific advice, but best of luck on this. I know that beating an addiction is a hell of a trying experience...but you've completed the first (and arguably most difficult) step by admitting your problem.

Yeah, we're good dude, I guess I got my panties all up in a bunch too.

I know you apologized later on so thanks, but you for this ok? Since you went out of your way to make so many personal attacks here, I should get to defend myself right? 1) My "summer vacation" has been spent in Ithaca, me paying my own rent by working 50 hours a week. 2) I'm joining the military as soon as I graduate, when I'll gladly get my limbs blown off for my country. 3) I wasn't trying to "educate" anybody, I was responding to J in M who foolishly said he would physically assault a person for demonstrating free speech. 4) I'm an embarrassment to Cornell because I disagree with you on some things and I'm headstrong in my opinions? you on that one too, buddy. 5) I am Arts and Sciences so I guess that's too bad for you. Senator, I'm fine with you. You're a good poster and a seemingly decent guy. But please, you should get to know somebody before you try to shove them into an overly generalized stereotype...isn't that something you learned with the "wisdom of your years"? Maybe when you were far above Cayuga's waters you fit that stereotype, but not me. Hey, I'm only 20, I admit I don't know everything. But judging a person (and their opinions) based ONLY on age is as bad as judging them solely on race, sex, or creed.

The men in question didn't die for the flag...they died for their country, and its values. Values like free speech and peaceful protest. I wouldn't personally burn a flag, but we live in a country where you can show dissent without repercussion. THAT is what they died for.

The poster doesn't even make sense, though. Joker in The Dark Knight was all about anarchy, which is the polar opposite of socialism.

One more thing... I know I haven't been present for the entire training camp, but Mark Sanchez looked like an absolute wreck today. Might've just been a bad day, but he was panicking while he was trying to run through his reads and overthrowing guys by about 15 yards in some instances. My first impression is that he's at least a year away from being a competent starter. Of course, I'm no scout but he looked bad.

Forgot to mention, I got to meet Rachel Nichols today at Jets camp. She's a very down to earth and classy lady. I wanted to ask her opinion on the Erin Andrews situation but I was a little nervous to broach the subject.

Will do, it'll be available tomorrow morning on our website, and it will air on our sports talk show on Sunday.

Thanks Lori (and everybody), I'm not trying to go for TOO much of a Buffalo spin because our show broadcasts in Ithaca which isn't any more of a Bills market than it is a Jets market. I scheduled the interview with Leonhard because I failed to get press passes to Bills camp and I figured an interview with a FORMER Bill would be the next best thing. That said, I'll be at Jets camp for a few days and I don't want to expose myself as the true Bills homer that I am

There's actually no journalism major at Cornell, but I'm doubling in English and Communications which does the job pretty well. I'm hoping to go to the Newhouse School at Syracuse when I'm done with my undergraduate studies.

So I've got an interview scheduled with Jim Leonhard tomorrow at Jets training camp (I know that he's kinda small potatoes, but it's my first NFL interview so I'm kinda nervous). Anybody have any specific (and reasonable) questions you'd like me to ask? So far I've got... 1) You're one of the few guys to play under Rex Ryan as a D-Coordinator and Head Coach. Has his style changed at all and how has he affected your career? 2) What was it like playing just a few yards away from living legends like Ed Reed and Ray Lewis? 3) Based on who you've covered in practice, how are the younger WRs progressing and has anybody stood out as a potential replacement for Lavernues Coles? 4) Your away game against Buffalo is in Toronto this year. Are you excited about the new venue or would you prefer to return to Ralph Wilson Stadium where you spent 3 years as a Bill?

No, not even wikipedia. Maybe it's like the S in Harry S. Truman.

Please, you're such an amateur. Everybody knows if it's REALLY good corn, you don't need to even eat it.

When you consider the team that "beat" us came within one yard of winning said Superbowl, how the hell can you say for sure what would've happened?

Just as long as you know how badly "Dickie boy" could kick your ass if he wanted to.

In my best Nelson Muntz...HAW HAW! Let's go Yankees!!!! (but honestly, who didn't know about Ortiz already? He went from being mediocre to superb in 0 seconds flat, and then fell back down to earth as quickly as he rose...my guess is he knew that his name would appear on the 2003 list, so he stopped using so that he wouldn't further implicate himself when the sh*t hit the fan)

As a connoisseur of analogies, I must say brilliantly done sir.

I love how obesity is considered a "disease" in our society. Yes, some people are afflicted by dangerously slow metabolisms and other genetic quirks, but the VAST majority of obese people just eat too f*cking much and never exercise. When the cure to your "disease" is to order the vegetables instead of the french fries and then take your dog for a walk around the block, it's not a disease. This country has a higher rate of obesity than any other country in the world by a freakin country mile, and THAT is the reason for our low life expectancy...not health care. Why couldnt' Bill-O just have said that?

Actually, Robles IS an hispanic name.

He already won a Superbowl.

Yeah because Michael Vick, a worse quarterback than Trent Edwards, is the difference between us winning the superbowl and not winning the superbowl.

Maybe you're different, but a lot of people revert back to bad speaking behaviors when they get nervous. Anyway, my point is that a person using "axe" might not be very intelligent, but I don't see it as an impetus to judge them as a person who's less likely to be a good renter.

I'm not perfect, but I'm pretty sure that I've never considered feeding a live chihuahua to a rottweiler so that it gets the taste for blood.

I'll say this again...just because he mentioned him in the same breath as Hitler does not make it a COMPARISON.
