Here's some sportsmanship for ya

Actually it can. Wrestling coaches get to slide wrestlers up or down depending on the match up they want. Believe it or not, wrestling is 30% tribal and 70% brains. It really is. But I'm not here to argue that point. As far as basketball goes, it's a kick in the butt to lose by 100...should the coach for the team that was losing just quit at halftime and not go on the court? What kind of a message would that send? -

I saw my son get manhandled by Sectional champ when he was about 15. The other kid was built like a brick **** house and was an amazing wrestler. Afterward, my son was ok with it because he knew the kid was dedicated to wrestling and my son was more into acting/studies/fishing, etc. But as my son grew into wrestling, he had matches where he was the aggressor and was able to dominate someone else. Similarly, the kids on the losing team in this article will remember this game and will beat up on some other smaller team some day. I hate to say it but it's "the circle of life". It does suck, but it has been happening for years and years. -

Yes, but people have a habit of confusing the seed division of a company with the chemical division. The seed division spends millions of dollars hiring geneticists, constructing labs, greenhouses, etc. and creating a genetic sequence that is "unique" - if a farmer has to buy that seed and pay a premium for it, he does so because it yields a larger crop than standard seed. Intellectual property rights aside, the costs for the company are huge to get to that point. Believing the company should just give the seed away for free is left leaning IMO.

A lefty will never admit they were wrong or confused. They will vehemently maintain a position even when science proves their stance is grounded in rhetoric and emotions. The GMO debate is just such an instance where people in small towns are buying into the "anti GMO" cause because their affluent/artsy neighbors boast about it at cocktail parties and lecture others on the "poisons" caused by GMO (not realizing that if you take one untreated seed and borrow certain superior genetic traits for another untreated seed, you are not creating poison...you are creating a superior seed that can tolerate drought, moisture, sun, shade, sand, winters and a large variety of slugs and pests). To actually discuss this in a logical way with an anti-GMOer is the challenge. They will not reconsider the science behind it because they are convinced (based on their indoctrination into the Church of All Things Left) that GMO = the end times.

Ravens CB update: dies due to injuries
BringBackFergy replied to Saxum's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Very sorry to hear this. Not sure if he was racing or just didn't know how to operate a fast bike. Was he drinking? Drugs? Did someone follow him on another bike? Etc. Knowing the press and Schefty the Twit-terer - we'll find out much more in the days ahead. Hopefully the mainstream press guys respect the family before they start their "investigative" journalism. -

Those were some decent matches tonight. I only saw 160's through heavys but a lot of talented young men. Should be some great final matches tomorrow night. -

They should shorten NFL games.
BringBackFergy replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If you would kindly read above I think you'll see a consensus that the game should be shortened. Currently it takes three and half hours to get through an NFL game. Under my proposal, I would shave considerable time off this total as follows: a) there would be a 15 minute pre-game equipment inspection and on field contact drills just to get a feel for each opponent, b) then kickoff would start the first 20 minute half with a 2 minute play clock between each play, c) then a 30 minute halftime (for player safety and coaching analysis...commercials would come into play here to keep revenue up), d) then on field stretching for 15 minutes (player safety), e) second half kickoff, then another 20 minute half with 2 minutes in between each play. f) In the event of a tie, there would be a "redemption shot" kind of like when we used to play "HORSE" and each QB would have the opportunity to hit a pie plate in the end zone starting at the 50 yard line (once again, player safety, no jump balls, no torn ACL's, excitement, no boring run plays up the middle). I think we're all in agreement this would streamline the game. -

I would ask Beerball or BuffaloBill if there is a "back door" to get around the security...they are intimately familiar with how to sneak in via backdoors. -

BringBackFergy replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wouldn't mind a Playoff Championship for Preseason. BUT, I disagree on whether they should count toward the record. Look, I know the games need to be shortened to three 10 minute periods or two 25 minute halves...we all agree on that point. But during the preseason, they should have a round robin style tournament with Bowl games at the end to decide who is the Preseason Champion. Then the Champion would be seeded for the regular season...say the Bills won the whole Preseason Championship...they would be seeded #1...they would then play the team that had the worst preseason record in the season opener. Want to make the Preseason Playoff Tournament an exciting event...use the implanted chip for NFL fans on a trial run for preseason games. As a Bills fan, I'd buy one in a heartbeat if it took me into the huddle, on the sidelines and allowed me to actively participate in the playcalling. The whole idea of increasing the playclock to two minutes between each play is because the game itself is shortened, but the time in between is lengthened so the coaches can consider suggestions via Twitter, Facebook and via the implanted chip from fans like me. Once a big company signs on as the sponsor of the Buffalo NFL Reality chip (say, Sahlens Hot Dogs for instance), you would only have to listen to the Sahlens jingle for 30 seconds before it takes you back into the live game action. Tell me you wouldn't have one implanted if you could experience real NFL action?? (crickets) I rest my case. 1. More time w/families = less time in the stadium buying NFL merchandise I see people getting chips implanted of their favorite team so the sideline playcalling and live action can be heard right in your own head. This will cost a bundle but revenue will skyrocket even if the game is only 30 minutes long. Every chip will be sponsored by a certain brand...like Progressive Insurance, so you have to listen to Progressive commercials for another 3 hours after the game. 2. Fewer commercials = lower league profits See #1 above. The internal NFL chip will make you listen to the commercials before you can get back to live action. The chip can be paused if you have to go to a wedding or something. 3. Good point, but I think 1 and 2 will outweigh 4. Not sure > intensity would happen with professional players. Maybe with fans. Shorter games would build excitement in the fan base and the players. If a RB knows he only has one shot at breaking a 80 yard run because the game is only a total of 20 minutes, he's gonna try even harder. The nice thing about the internal NFL chip for each fan, is when you watch him run into the wall of Olineman and Dlineman, fans can scream out loud and the chip in your head is calibrated and networked into each team. If you yell "run left...look at that hole they made for you!!" the RB can actually listen to your comments and quickly dart left in to the opening. It will create a more "reality based" game for the fans with excitement in a shorter time allotment. The internal commercials playing in your head for 3 hours during and after each game would be a fair tradeoff in my opinion. -

Not only should they shorten the game time, but they should have more pre-season games that actually count toward your record. -
