The problem with flying starts way before take off. You need to arrive at the airport 2 hours in advance. Two hours! WTF? TSA can't be more efficient than that? Hire more agents. If you want to get the pre-check you hand over a $100. How is that fair? If you have $100 you can skip the line but if you're on food stamps you can't? You take off your shoes and walk across a bunion, toe jam, and athlete's feet infested, filthy floor. You get stripped searched and x-rayed. You get the luxury of paying $7 for a coke and $30 for a cold cheeseburger at McDonalds. You then sit around for an hour waiting for your flight to be delayed/cancelled with no information exchange. If you want to talk to a gate agent, you better not rely on English as your primary language. Then you board. Some jackwagon immediately puts is stuff over your seat. You sit down in a seat that a toddler would have trouble fitting in. The lady sitting next to you has chronic halitosis, dandruff, and a disturbing skin condition. Then, selfish douche boy in front of you puts his seat back. Frankly, I'm surprised people don't go bug F more often?

Keep going. If not for yourself, do it for your family. My mom died in 2014 of lung cancer. Not fun to watch.

Maybe the dude has CTE. Something's wrong.

AB should be power slammed through a burning table.

Who takes a pic like that and posts it? Hmm.

Go on Facebook. I'm a Sports Mom Photo Challenge. Chronic Halitosis Challenge. Terminated With Cause Challenge. Don't Look at Me, I'm Hideous Challenge. Ridiculous.

Ice bucket challenge. Ten day photos challenge. Pull my finger challenge. Ridiculous waste of time. I ban all challenges.

Sorry to be a jackwagon. Try to cut out unnecessary words. I really liked the content! Keep it up! Ask anybody about the original XFL and there’s a good chance they’ll laugh. The original incarnation lasted one season and is considered by most to have been a failure. The XFL is making a comeback this year, and while many are skeptical that this league will have the same fate as its predecessor, those who have been paying attention see it much differently. League owner, Vince McMahon has done his research, learned from his mistakes, and is ready to run a successful football league. Here are five good reasons the XFL will succeed this time around. 5. The XFL Will Be Family Friendly Those who remember the original XFL, will remember that they caught some criticism for how skimpy the cheerleaders outfits were. There were even segments that teased that they were going to cheerleaders sneaking into their locker rooms (only to disappoint fans by only approaching comedy legend Rodney Dangerfield). This XFL will have nothing of the sort. In fact, the XFL will have no cheerleaders at all and This league promises to be entertaining for fans of all ages. entertainment for all. 4. More ways to watch the games The original XFL had one nationally televised live broadcast a week, with a A second non live game after that, that was recorded during the same time as the previous game. This time around, all the games will be at different times, ensuring fans won’t have to try to decide which game will be the most exciting. choose between games. Also, with Every game will be nationally televised partnerships with on either ABC, Fox, ESPN, or and Fox Sports 1, televised. 3. Far Less Gimmicky Most people’s biggest recollection of the first XFL was Rod Smart. Better known as the name on the back of his jersey, “He Hate Me.” The original XFL allowed players to put nicknames on the back of their jersey. They also started games by Games were started by having two opposing players scramble each over to gain possession of the game ball, in lieu of a traditional coin toss. It was essentially a cross between McMahon’s WWE, and football. While this definitely gained curious onlookers, the novelty of these bells and whistles wore off quickly. This time around, the XFL is focused solely on football. McMahon has taken a bit more of a hands off approach, and left putting former pro quarterback, and more recently, the athletic director for and West Virginia University Athletic Director, Oliver Luck in charge as the league CEO and Commissioner of the league. 2. Innovative Rules Scaling back on the pageantry gimmickry doesn’t mean that they’re scaling back on the fun. There are so many rule changes coming to this league, and they’re all designed to make the game more fun for the fans. They’ve eliminated the traditional, almost automatic one-point kick. They replaced the PAT kick with the choice of making plays from scrimmage, from the two, five and ten yard lines. These attempts are worth one, two, and three points respectively. Also, replacing one of the most controversial rules in professional football, the XFL has completely overhauled the controversial how overtime rules is handled. Replacing the traditional rules of sudden death overtime, Unlike traditional sudden death, the XFL has a concept that’s more akin to the hockey shootout. Each team will have an offensive and defensive unit on the field, and have a five round shootout of two point conversion attempts to determine the winner. This, along with a new double forward pass concept, changes to kickoffs, and punts, and clock rules will give the fans something different to watch. 1. The League is Fan Oriented Game tickets range from $25-30 for tickets in the lower bowl tickets, so fans can be close to the action no matter where they sit, without breaking the bank. Season ticket holders even get a field pass to watch one game a year from the field. Teams will also be holding events throughout where fans can meet other fans, coaches, and players. Regular fan/player/coach meet-and-greets The league also has a fan advisory board, which surveys fans about how they feel about the league, and what they look for in their football experience, so they can cater to the ultimate fan experience. The XFL has a lot of naysayers out there who are basing their opinions on past experience. But Vince McMahon and the XFL have done their research, learned from their mistakes, and have built the foundation (You already said this) for a long lasting football league for years to come.

Sorry for your loss. The only good thing I ever seem to make positive out of hearing of death, is to remind myself to live every day to the fullest. I hope you can do that too.

Spinal Tap and Puppet Show. Or is that Puppet Show and Spinal Tap? Hmmm.

If you believe in a higher power - why do you need a middle man? Never understood organized religion.

It's a distinct possibility if Brady goes to Miami.

With the top UFA's out there - I have to think most want to be starters or retire. We can't stick with Barkley right?. He was great in the one Jets game a while back but sucked this year. Any thoughts? With Josh running so much worried he will get clocked.

Legendary Bill. He probably shagged the girl in the post ^^^^^^^ up there.

Mighty Taco

You know it really wouldn't be a bad idea to add one game to the schedule and make each team play at a neutral site. I wonder if they could draw fans to say: Bills vs Jets in Lincoln Nebraska.

Worst halftime show in history. Lip synching, has-beens, dancing badly.

Looking for the killer.

Shady would have gained 300 yards today if they counted running sideways. Time to retire.

What would there have been for Gore not to like this past year? He moved up to 3 on the all time rushing list. He also didn’t have to take a pounding all year...and got paid! Perfect.

Hitler would be 131 years old.

What? No fire?
