  1. He does. I think you're confusing the back of the end zone for the front of the end zone. Just watch the yardage markers.
  2. I know he likes sports but I thought he rooted for the Jetsssssss.
  3. These two are not mutually exclusive...even if his beef is warranted, he needs to stfu. It's a freakin video game.
  4. If you want to wax poetic, you might consider cutting down on the spelling/grammar mistakes. It's better to stay quiet and appear to be an idiot, than to open your mouth and truly expose yourself as one.
  5. Don't get me wrong, I agree that the cops had no right to arrest Gates. However, I've talked to people over the last couple days who were including the neighbor as one of the "racist parties", and that just isn't right. It's frustrating living in Ithaca, where everybody explodes over the smallest social issue. We've had protests today, blocking up the roads.
  6. Exactly. If Gates were 6' 5" and his neighbor called in about a "tall guy" breaking into the house...would it be height profiling?
  7. Is JP a bad football player, or an alcoholic?
  8. Yes, I realize there are a lot of intricacies...but just try to put yourself in the shoes of an unsigned NFL rookie. Here's what I would do: I'd call up my agent and say "I'm not too familiar with the business side of these operations, so here's what I want you to do. Just negotiate a deal that you think is fair and pretty close to market value for my draft slot. Give me a call when I can sign on the dotted line. If I miss a day of training camp, you're fired."
  9. I wasn't really talking about the Bills or Maybin (yet). I was talking about the Cedric Bensons of the world.
  10. I'm aware that Maybin isn't holding out yet, but I just have something to say. I will NEVER understand players who engage in a contractual holdout, especially before their rookie season. These guys should be so fuggin excited that they have the opportunity to play in the NFL that they should be nervously counting down the days until training camp, NOT squabbling over how many millions of dollars they'll be making in their first few seasons. I know that their D-bag agents have a lot to do with it, but I'm just trying to imagine myself as an NFL rookie and I know that there's a 0% chance I'd be holding out.
  11. She's an ANCHOR? I thought she won some internship through a beauty contest or something.
  12. What in specific? I mean, there are a couple of typos, but I'm sure she isn't the one that physically entered the info onto the site. If you're referring to the cosmetology license thing, well at least she has a trade right? Also, horrible taste in movies, etc. but that's pretty typical of women.
  13. I believe the referee in question on that play was Walt Coleman, the same guy who presided over the famous "tuck rule" play in 2001. On the patsie's* payroll?
  14. Why would Ralph and Bruce trade in all their accomplishments to get a Superbowl ring for the Bills? What a selfish question to ask in the first place. Tell me murra, would YOU trade in everything you've accomplished so that the Bills would win a Superbowl this year? I can almost guarantee you that Jim Kelly's answer would be the same. As a fan, we're concerned with nothing short of a Superbowl parade. As players, football is their career. It's business. It's their job and like most people with jobs, they don't consider it to be the most important thing in their life. Now, ask Jim Kelly if he'd trade it all in to have his son alive and healthy, and you'd get a different answer. I don't know what your profession is, but let's say that you're a writer. You're a very VERY successful writer who happens to have never won the Pulitzer Prize. Somebody comes up to you and says, "Let's make a deal. All of your previous books, short stories, and poems will be wiped from the face of the Earth, forgotten forever...but in return, your next work will win the Pulitzer." Obviously, you'd say hell no.
  15. Waitaminute...I'm in the inner circle jerk? I thought I was the douchey college kid...
  16. Could've been a friend, but the dude was pretty short and skinny so I doubt it was a member of the Whittle clan.
  17. I figured I would start a fun topic. Basically, what jersey worn by a fellow fan made you do the biggest double take and mutter to yourself "Why the f*ck would you want a ____ _____ jersey?" Mine is Jason Whittle.
  18. Fair enough. Like an earlier poster said, Bobby April trusts Rian Lindell, so I trust Rian Lindell. I'd definitely put Vinatieri in the top 5 (and he's had his great moments), but behind the likes of Rob Bironas, Shayne Graham, and (the top dog) Matt Stover.
  19. Yeah! Why let a silly thing like statistical evidence alter your unsubstantiated notions?
  20. Vinatieri is better than every other kicker in the league? How so? And I, unfortunately, can't prove my point because there is no standard definition over what constitutes a "clutch" kick. By the way, I'm not trying to be argumentative and I apologize if my last post came across as condescending...I just happen to think that kickers are interchangeable parts. There is very little variance statistically between the "good kickers" and "bad kickers".
