  1. http://www.nfl.com/players/larryfitzgerald...le?id=FIT437493 http://www.nfl.com/players/anquanboldin/profile?id=BOL283010 Fitz has a slight advantage in receptions and yards and a sizable one in touchdowns (remember, he's played one fewer season). He also has a one yard advantage in yards per catch, and has fumbled 5 times opposed to Boldin's 13. They're both elite, but Fitz is better IMO. After watching both in action a few times, it just seems like Fitz brings more to the table.
  2. Careerbuilder.com wins hand down for me. I find that my sense of humor favors the more surreal things in life. Hulu was great too.
  3. No, no way. Fitz is faster, he makes better cuts, has better hands, jumps higher, doesn't fumble (something Boldin does quite a bit),is a better red zone threat, and is two inches taller to boot. Nothing against Boldin, but I think Fitz makes him better and not the other way around.
  4. All I could think during the game was "Santonio, where was this effort when it could have won me money in fantasy football?"
  5. lol, I hope we don't have a closet idiot in the white house.
  6. How do you know? Maybe his ancestors were involved with the business end of the slave trade. Maybe they were lower class African farmers who managed to escape the slave trade. She doesn't know and neither do you, and she has no business "reporting" on it. If McCain were elected, would she be insinuating that his ancestors were invariably slave holders? If you ask me, Coulter doesn't even qualify as a conservative. She's nothing more than an anti-liberal. Every book, every article she writes just tears down liberals and basically does nothing to actually espouse conservative viewpoints.
  7. Last time I checked, it was a free country. If there's really so many prostitutes in this area, don't the cops have better things to do than question guys who are walking around and minding their own business?
  8. I live in a bomb shelter under the 50 yard line at the Ralph. Do I win closest to the stadium?
  9. What makes you so confident that none of the DEs are worth drafting?
  10. Don't forget that you can essentially make this exact same statement for the 2001 Pats*.
  11. Yea, cuz it's not like he's having a better season than drury and briere combined or anything. Trust me, we'd all be more miserable right now if Vanek was one of the guys who got away.
  12. Wow, you really SHOULD be the GM. If I were you, I'd send a letter to the front office and tell them some of your ideas. Start off with the one where you want to cut Whitner.
  13. Then why did we draft McKelvin? The FO clearly had designs on losing either Greer or McGee. If we can sign Greer, and get something good out of a trade for McGee, isn't that the optimal solution?
  14. Jesus H. Christ, if he says he went to West Point, he went to West Point. Big man, picking on the US military officer on a message board. Just lay off.
  15. Fair enough. My ancestors got here in the mid-1600's, and founded a town called Middletown, Connecticut. According to a book chronicling our history, my family owned anywhere between 25 and 50 slaves until the practice was outlawed (relatively early up north). I can only assume that somewhere there is a child still suffering from this, and that makes me feel guilty whether it should or not. Your father's story is an inspiring one, and one that is relatively common among the hearty people of Buffalo. And yes, I suppose it shoots down my theory to a certain extent. The fact remains that no single ethnic group was at a greater disadvantage than the freedmen. I can't say for sure why they haven't recovered as a group.
  16. Some nice Sahlen's hot dogs and anywhere from 2-10 Labatt's, depending on how I fare at beer pong.
  17. Haha, well I guess I win on a technicality, but I wasn't expecting a good answer. Sorry if I offended.
  18. Harvard's acceptance rate is currently 9.1% Would you mind informing us which school you went to with an acceptance rate of .45%? As far as I know, such a school does not exist.
  19. That doesn't mean the effects aren't still felt. Unfortunately, our ancestors did a horrible job assisting the assimilation of blacks into their culture. Is it fair that we should be called upon to introduce some equity today? Maybe not, but I say it's the right thing.
  20. wanna get high?
  21. Ok that's two examples. This isn't math...you can't prove something is wrong by proving the opposite with one example.
  22. I like to think of myself as relatively aware of these things. My parents are at polar opposites of the political spectrum, so I wasn't really raised to be a herd-following sheep (in either direction) like a lot of my classmates. My Mom made sure that I knew MSNBC was full of liars with an agenda, and my Dad made sure I knew Fox News was full of liars with an agenda. The one time I did have a professor that blatantly pushed an agenda (American Lit prof that was obsessed with painting white people as the devil for the treatment of Native Americans), I lost a lot of respect for him.
  23. "Real life" seems to only embitter people.
  24. My professors haven't affected me in any way politically, and they aren't spreading propaganda. They stick to the topics which pertain to their classes. We don't discuss politics. You shouldn't hold a grudge against an entire profession just because one of them screwed you over.
