  1. I like them both. Trent is the starter, and from what I've read he has become something of a workout maven and now has some idea of what winter games in Western New york is like, so I would expect him to be better this year. Losman is pretty darn close to his equal and has something to prove ...if he ever gets back on the field. I think Losman is certainly better than anything we would get for him in trade right now. We're okay in this position, and maybe a little better than okay if the qb's have continued to progress.
  2. War is war. Atrocities always happen on both sides. The winner gets to disavow them. Those who have actually been in a war tend to be careful about getting into the next one. This kind of thing happens when the Supreme Court selects a certain nose-picking flightsuit wearing dickwad into office. Mission Accomplished. I was leaning toward McCain until he went to Iraq in his flak vest with helicopters and troops all around him and toured a market and said it was perfectly safe. I guess he loved the Bushie Kool Aid. Anyway..shouldn't this be on the PPP board?
  3. Hmmm...mistreating prisoners on a ship called Bataan. Now there's something to think about.
  4. Considering our other needs and the plan of getting to the playoffs, drafting McGahee was a puzzlement. He was not much if any improvement over Henry.In the final analysis it was one of Donohoe's worst blunders.
  5. Mark my words...Dexter Jackson will be a starting receiver for the Bucs before the season is half over. He is a real steal.
  6. He never actually played for us, but is in the Canadian Football Hall of Fame (probably along with Doug Flutie and maybe Cookie Gilchrist.)
  7. Hackman had some very good early movies, as Popeye Doyle in French connection and in The Conversation. Actually he was good in some bad movies as well (The Poseidon Adventure comes to mind). I think he is one of the best character actors. The equivalent for today? Probably Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
  8. I don't remember THAT one...wow that was lame.
  9. Geez....I mention a circle jerk and the thing with the goat and you're bothered by Sing alongs?
  10. Forget the strippers. You should have a good time with the poker, a little beverage, sing-alongs and good conversation. You can do without strippers and rely on the circle jerk and the thing with the goat.
  11. I always thought of that helmet as the first helmet. Is there a picture of the one they wore from their inception?
  12. why? Is he in the Mafia too? Can't eat pizza, can't use the computer...Seems like we're banning a lot of good sh--
  13. I'm working on layoffs as we speak in the Education field. Its the state of the country, and I don't see it getting better.
  14. hell when I was in high school they posted class standing by NAME. You were first, third, thirty-second, or ninetieth...for everyone to see.
  15. I never understood why they didn't forfeit the Jets game. If you are caught cheating and it is one of the reasons you won a forfeit seems appropriate.
  16. I'm kind of at a loss to wonder why its such a big deal. Like you said, we eat cows, pigs, chickens and turkeys.
  17. Actually I work with a VA center affiliated with our university with a major PTSD program. We don't do enough. The past president didn't do enough. This president has done a lot less.
  18. No way...its friggin Australia. I've seen six year olds in rehab there.
  19. Not in perimeter but one of the best places for breakfast in the USA.. Flying Biscuit 1655 McLendon Ave Atlanta, GA 30307 Phone: (404) 687-8888
  20. Freakin A!!! and kids are kinda soft...bounce off stuff. If they are really in pain..hell....give them a beer why dontcha?
  21. I'll buy the steelers. Especially if you are looking at an organization over a prolonged period of time. One could...could mind you....make a case for the Yankees if you are looking over the huge longer period. short term....dare I say it?....one might begin to make a case for the Patriots? I say this with the caveat that I HATE the patriots and hated them since they were the Boston Patriots.
  22. Actually the VA is managed as part of the executive branch of the government. Let's see who has been running that baby for the last eight years...hmmm....oh wait a minute...the guy in the flight suit under the mission accomplished sign with his digit up his nose! and he's a Republican, last time I looked. Maybe his clone McCain will have some idea how to deal with this. I don't know how you get that this has been going on since vietnam. I'm just saying getting a freaking purple heart in lieu of treatment is what's going on now.
  23. Actually the Iraqi vets are not getting adequate mental health treatment either for PTSD or Traumatic Brain Injury. Take the money for your friggin medals and get them the screening and treatment they need. We used to have a Christmas song in Vietnam.. "Jingle Bells, Mortar shells, Charlie's in the Grass... Take your f-ing christmas cookis, stick em up your ass!" Actually I kind of feel the same way about the purple hearts.
  24. sh--, kids come and go, but Australian beer? That stuff spills and you are morose forever. The kid gets hurt, he'll heal and the injury builds character. He dies, hell kids are like those potato chips...you can always make more.
