  1. That link is garbled up for some reason, 26. Try this: http://media.denverbroncos.com/images/9008/Flipcards/141207_flipcard_Buf.pdf
  2. Obesity is pretty simple in most cases. Calories in > calories burned If you want to lose weight, it's also pretty simple. Calories in < calories burned No excuses. http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/11/08/twinkie.diet.professor/
  3. So...it's a union? BOOM THREAD DERAIL IMMINENT
  4. Actual question that I haven't found an answer to: is the SLPOA a government entity? I thought it was more like a benevolent association, which operates separate from the police and not as agents of the government. Edit: I guess Darin answered my question. The answer is no.
  5. Your faux outrage is cute, but not grounded in reality. They're not demanding anything, at least not with any potency. They made a request to the employers of a group of men who made a very public demonstration while at their workplace. The employers did what they felt was best and denied the request. Cops didn't ride up in there and demand apologies or blood offering at gunpoint. They made a request. They, as an organization which has the avenues and the opportunities to express the organization's views in accordance with their own first amendment rights, made a request. Let's review: their organization has First Amendment rights. The players paid by the Rams, for all intents and purposes, do not have First Amendment rights while they are on the clock for their employer. So a group with collective free speech rights asked an employer with free speech rights to discipline their employees who used speech when they do not have free speech rights. The request was denied. Outrage averted (unless you're Greg or a race baiter or some sort of leftist who thinks that police are the greatest evil of our time [look, I can be dramatic too!]). You want it to be about free speech, so framed everything here around free speech. The only people without free speech rights in this whole mess are the players involved, so I'm still not sure why you're so butt-hurt. P.S. If you've been around these parts and paying any sort of attention over the past four or five years, you'd know exactly what I think about police, police states, militarization of police forces, etc. Regardless of how little you know about them, my thoughts on the subject have no bearing on what I think about your arguments, which are silly.
  6. Just like the individual Rams have free speech rights when they're off the clock. Just about all of our 1st Amendment rights are left at the door when we punch that clock. It has nothing to do with freedom of speech. That you keep saying that it does baffles me.
  7. Can you still hook up a Gamecube controller? Back when I played Smash Bros a lot that's what you had to do. That was the original Wii though.
  8. They asked, the Rams said no. What's your issue with it?
  9. The Rams would have been well within their rights to discipline these players if they so chose. Athletes have the right to protest anything they want...on their own time.
  10. Serious answer: I don't think Tom C. would ever go to the Jets, and I don't think the Giants would ever hire Rex Ryan as long as he's within 100 miles of a microphone.
  11. Personally, I enjoy my gruff "yerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr." I sound like a post-pubescent Timmy from South Park. Perfect for a football game.
  12. Because it's true. But they're our d-bags.
  13. And humans love it. Anyplace they can find to root their identity in, and then find others who root their identity similarly and hang out.
  14. This. As long as people continue to trumpet the "equal groups" lines there will always be people showing up to contend that the groups are not equal or that every group should have their own continent or whatever.
  15. Not for more than one night. She's got that unmistakeable thousand-rooster stare. Check it:
  16. Timely bump. Lost a client to liver cancer this morning. She was 37. Friend's dad was recently diagnosed with stage IV bile duct cancer. Survival rate is something like 2%. Cancer sucks.
  17. Stranger things have happened. How many points did they score against the Rams? Though you're right, the idea of the game turning into 18 vs. 18 is a terrifying thought.
  18. Play action, Orton hits Frank Summers, after he releases from a block, who deliberately runs toward the middle of the field to truck the hell out of lil' Donte. Summers pulls out a tailor's tape to show the crowd that his biceps and lil' Donte's neck have the same circumference. Double bird, stunner, stunner, stunner. Crowd goes wild.
  19. If they're different sizes, they can't possibly all be yours.
  20. They got it all wrong. Gotta leave different pairs of panties laying around so that they think you're a Casanova.
  21. Yeah can't say that I'd involve the police at that stage either. I'd have gotten a good and proper beating if I had pulled something like that.
  22. I was watching while refreshing the gang green game thread. Hilarious.
  23. My first drum set.
  24. It depends on how far south the cold air gets. See what they say through tomorrow, could just end up being a lot of rain in Jersey.
