  1. The Chargers may not be a punchline at this point in time, but even in 2002, the perception was different. Nobody was talking about how great and stable the Chargers were when the team was throwing big money at second rate talent like Tim Dwight, Wiley, and Alexander (IIRC). Trying not to be disrespectful, the best thing to happen to the Chargers this decade was the death of Butler.
  2. Just admit it. You are addicted. You can't hep it.
  3. Loved the comments by the judges. Even some of the comments left by the people who watched the video are kind of funny;
  4. Seriously? Hey Nick, the Chargers fired Marty (who was a 3 time recycled HC when the Chargers hired him), and hired fricking Norv Turner, a 2 time recycled HC (with a LOSING career HC record at the time). And he's smacking on the Bills because they hired Gailey, a 1 time recycled HC? Is Nick jealous? WTF. So the owner, the GM, and the HC all get along "wonderfully". Great. Let them go sing "Kumbaya" together. Maybe Nickie-poo can join in. But Nick, do everybody else a favor, and just STFU about the Bills. Pooj, Thanks for writing the idiot in attempt to get him to clarify his stupidity.
  5. I read the whole article 3 times. I am still not sure what Nick was getting at with that comment. If the comment was a diss against Gailey, he needs to recheck the Chargers coaching staff. For the sake of Charger fans, I hope Nick doesn't think Norv Turner is some great catch.
  6. Even with AS, the DL is still mediocre. Nobody on that line scares opposing teams.
  7. I made this call awhile ago. Al Davis and Mike Leach are a perfect "fit", and deserve each other. I would look forward to seeing the "show" those two put on. Plus it would be funny as hell to see the Raiders adopt a new fight song.
  8. Wasn't this already done before? I usually end up hating remakes, especially when the original was much bolder and so very capital.
  9. Ignorance. That's the only logical reason I can think of that would compel somebody to post those 2 sentences. What about the message board owner?
  10. Wasn't Petey shacking up with a coed while at USC? Why is this revelation a shock or scandal when we already know Lane was treating some of the UTenn coeds like hookers? He was just sampling the "product".
  11. And Leach got into a power struggle with the "entitled little prick" and lost. If Leach was half the "person" his defenders keep trying to make him out to be, TT does NOT cut him loose. And in case you haven't heard, Texas Tech recently hired Tommy Tuberville to be their new head coach. If Tubby comes close to matching Leach's success, in a couple of years, Red Raider fans will care less about Leach.
  12. Can you twist statements and side step the issue any better? SF Bills fan did NOT call Leach a "tryant". He said Leach uses "humiliation" techinques ... ... which you prove Leach does by the above link. Good job proving SF Bills fan right. Nice job. The Dallas News story is about Leach's inability to adjust his techniques to conform to newer attitudes regarding discipline and motivation. Actually, it is pretty safe to assume he will use the same motivational techniques at the NFL level. He's egotistical and arrogant, and his "ways" have been successful. He continued using the same techniques even though attitudes shifted regarding those techniques. Instead of realizing he may have stepped over the line, he lashed out.
  13. First, IIRC, Sal reported there was a succession plan already in place, not that the ownership of the Bills was solid. Second, Ralph has stated the team will be sold when he dies. That's not a rumor, Ralph has stated that in public and during interviews.
  14. Even if there was NOT an interview/offer, it would still be a benefit for Harbaugh's agent to "leak" the alleged offer to Casserly for exactly the same reasons you cited. It would also benefit Harbaugh and his agent for Stanford to "know" about such "offer". Having everybody know you are in "demand" helps with any contract negotiations or re-negotiations. Don't believe any third party sources. Could the source be right? Yes. Could the source be wrong? Yes. And there in lies the problem. We don't know one way or the other. The only thing we can expect as things drag on is the rumor mill to really start cranking out BS.
  15. Awesome! We can change the Bills fight song to: Linky
  16. Looks like Derek Dooley is the guy: Linky Son of former UGA coach Vince Dooley Served under Saban when Nick was at LSU. Wasn't very successful as the HC for Louisiana Tech going 17-20.
  17. IIRC, 91% last year. Made Vandy one of the top 5 in the country.
  18. Money and marketing. Prior to the 1998 expansion, Legion Field was actually bigger. The bigger and more important games were played in Birmingham. Legion Field had become old and outdated, they expanded Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa (and continue to do so), and Legion Field is home field for the UAB Blazers.
  19. Just like Steve Spurrier did, right? That's why Texas Tech defenses have sucked while he was the coach.
  20. I am always amazed at what people on this board will B word and complain about.
  21. Alabama Crimson Tide (in case you were unsure), Buffalo Bandits I don't care if the Bandits play in a "minor league sport". The Bandits have won more league championships than the Bills and Sabres combined.
  22. Norm Chow staying @ UCLA Linky
  23. Nothing definite, but lots of smoke: Air Force head coach Troy Calhoun has called a team meeting with his players @ 5:50 PM. Troy Calhoun is definitely on the Vols list of candidates. Linky
  24. So Skip Holtz is expected to be named the new HC of the South Florida Bulls. Linky Let the outrage begin.
