  1. I want sanjia!!!! I will vote for that little guy because I want to see him in the finals. Vote for the worst and undermind the show. As Coli once said - it is punk rock to vote for people like Sanjia.
  2. GREAT DEAL!!!!! It is very difficult to trade RB's (see, Sean Alexander two years ago). To get two 3rd round picks (plus the seventh) is fantastic.
  3. And what's it called when the paper that represents space-time is folded into a paper football and "flicked" through a wormhole?
  4. Sooooooo, you're not god?
  5. That was great - I love Dana White. The best was "the people at PRIDE are !@#$ing idiots!"
  6. where did you find this out? Also, I just read that Brandon Vera may be leaving the UFC. He only has one more fight on his contract and he is shopping around. I think Dana White would be stupid to let him go just when the heavy weight division is starting to improve.
  7. God? is that you?
  8. Somehow this violates God's law as set forth in the Bible. I am not sure how but I am sure it does. Sinners!
  9. I wonder if it was pain killers - Liddell is 37 or so. He is likely on some serious pain meds.
  10. That was priceless.
  11. AMEN!!!! I hate how cocky all their fighters are. Silvia will never sniff the belt again once Cro-Cop (or my favortie HW - Brandon Vera) wins it. While agree the rest of the card is week - Josh Koschek v. Diego Sanchez will be great. Koschek is possible the best athlete in the UFC (St. Pierre is up there as well) and he is one of the top wrestlers. He reminds me of a young Matt Hughes with more talent. Sanchez is just a bad ass. Highly skilled and also quick.
  12. All I can say is WOW! I always thought Silvia was a weak champion, but Couture destroyed him. His standup game was incredible. I did not expect that. He executed a perfect gameplan against the much bigger guy. But now Couture will likely have to fight Cro-Cop which will not be a long fight - though Cro-Cop's losses have come to elite wrestlers who can get him to the ground. Matt Hughes (who I hate) was unremarkable, though he did dominate. I was disapointed in the Franklin v. McDonald fight. I was turning into a McDonald fan, but he was terrible on his feet. His shoots were slow and awkward. I was waiting for Franklin to hit him with a knew or kick whenever he ducked his head and took his eyes off him. I wanted to see the Matt Hamil fight. I think he could become a great fighter. Up next, great fights. The one I am looking forward to is Josh Koschek v. Diego Sanchez. That should be a great one. Also Brad Imes v. Keith Herring. Herring was terrible in his UFC debut. Imes has steadily improved but took a long time off.
  13. that was a lot worse than the hit on Drury
  14. Hurley is funny as hell! I think the show is a classic philosphical argument of determinism vs. free-will. You can see that with Hurley with "the curse." no matter what he does he can not escape death. However, he seems to now have found free-will. Also Charlie, he beleived in free-will but now Desmond has told him he is going to die. There are mmany more examples as well. BTW: I said last week this show is like a Thomas Pynchon novel. Such as The Crying of Lot 49 or Gravity's Rainbow. The last episode confirmed that for me. Hurley and Charlie are such Pynchon-esque characters. Also the themes of paranoia, conspiracy, uncertain meanings, non-linear plots, and lack of plot resolution really makes this enjoyable for me as Pynchon fan - while it is likely to drive most folks nuts.
  15. Your post begs the following question: what good can be said about the bills now? Cash to the Cap, Baby! WHoooo!
  16. Ottawa Song - to tune of the Haunakha(sp?) song Marty: Hey, Lindy? Lindy: Yeah? Marty: Look, I'm Brawling
  17. LOST is a lot like a Thomas Pynchon novel. Some people, mostly serious literature academics, think Pynchon is one of the best writers ever to grace this earth. However, average readers think his books are too confusing and complicated. I love this show because it does not play to the lowest common denominator and avoids the boring pitfalls of linear plot with clear answers.
  18. Was it me or did Seacrest seem to go out of his way to "prove" he was not gay the whole show.
  19. Stolen joke - see the Joe Rogan thread on the off-topic forum. Ned "Carlos" sucks
  20. I watched that before going into a meeting and had teh damned song in my head the whole time. Bastard!
  21. You need help. Check here for BOTD guidance.
  22. The pension system for ex-players is a crime. Also, I think the Bills should be helping Conrad out. Just my two cents.
