  1. You know what's worse than any particular band? F'ing music snobs. You can change the song to one you like better, but the music snobs never STFU.
  2. Shouldn't be too hard if people keep making retarded suggestions on hiring people for head coach who have never coached any position, at any level, and have publicly stated they have no desire to. Posting something of merit might succeed in generating more intelligent responses. And -1 for not recognizing movie quotes, Nancy.
  3. Mr. Over40club, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

  5. Cowher + Buddy = Superbowl Although I'm not convinced Cowher would be the right choice. Just tryin' to help.
  6. Not that I disagree with your point, but just wanted to note that back in the days before there were any teams south of DC and east of Dallas, (Dolphins, Bucs, Jags, Titans, Texans, Falcons, Panthers ... did I forget anyone?) the Redskins were the pro football team of choice for many people who lived in the south. Their fight song was changed from fight for old "Dixie" to "DC" later on.
  7. National Punctuation Day? ,,|,
  8. I have no idea what event is taking place, what they're protesting, why they were asked to leave, what was occurring in the days and hours leading up to this, but I for one am OUTRAGED! It's a clear infringement of her constitutional right to walk slowly in front of riot police clearing a protest. It's outrageous, egregious, preposterous. You get me one bike rider on that jury, she's gonna walk outta there a rich woman. Slowly!
  9. That sucked, Brett. When you have someone lined up like that, you bury your shoulder into their chest and BLOW THEM UP with the easiest block you'll ever have in your life. That should've been an easy, clean, and devastating block. That the defender would have gotten right back up from.
  10. Ooooh, Mallo Cups. I remember now. Wow, what a long time ago.
  11. A busy signal. Only when I'm dialing overseas and there's no more available lines. Common courtesy and manners. Still have them, still use them. A real phone ring I've heard people's cell phone ringers set to this. Veterans selling poppies on Memorial and Veteran's Days. I still make donations for these every M and V day. There are always vets out in front of the local Walmart. Carburetors My motorcycle has one. I've had it apart numerous times. A handwritten letter I haven't written one in years. I still make my kids write thank you letters/cards by hand. My contributions: The am/fm clock radio with the flip clock. Haven't had one of those in years. Or the old windup "heartattack" alarm clock. The coupons at the bottom of the peanut butter cup candy. Saving them to get prizes. S&H greenstamps. A mailman with the cart on wheels walking through the neighborhood, delivering to the mailbox hanging on the house. Milk delivery. Diaper delivery. "CAR!" ... "GAME ON!" With the exception of a coach or a baseball player, how unusual it was to see a grownup wearing a baseball cap. Cars that didn't have seatbelts in the backseat. Seeing anyone use the seatbelts in the front seat. Ok, old enough this is too easy and could go on forever. It's fun, though.
  12. Single, systems analyst for a financial firm, so probably making a good salary. I'd be all over the Pittsburgh, PA (PIT) to Amsterdam, Netherlands (AMS) roundtrip ticket for $849.
  13. I guess I haven't lived between Daytona and Orlando long enough to hate it yet. Only five years. Twenty minutes to the beaches, a short drive to theme parks people travel from all over to visit - yeah, it's a tough life. Don't know about the rest of the state, but there's nice towns in the Orlando metro area, and nice towns surrounding it. And bad areas too. Take your time to settle in, it's possible to find a place that you'll be happy (anywhere you go).
  14. When a game ends tied in regulation, play a 10 minute period, but each team can only have 6 players on the field. If the OT period ends tied, you go to the second tie-breaking scenario. Each team gets to select three players who get the ball, one at a time, at midfield. The opposing team selects one player to play defense starting at the 35 yard line and try to keep him out of the end zone. Whichever team scores the most touchdowns in 3 attempts wins. If this is still tied after three attempts for each team, you go to the third tie-breaking scenario. Same rules as the second, but it's counted one at a time. One scores, and one doesn't - game over. Each player can only be used once until all players have been used. It's so brilliant, I can't believe other sports haven't adopted a similar idea.
  15. TO doesn't drink. The picture doesn't look like him. The can am spyder is not a motorcycle. And I don't care that it is classified as one. That is not an actual news source. Other than that, WOW!
  16. I lived in Clarence; parent still in that house, in between the crash site and the airport. I used to hate when planes used that approach - all conversation stopped while they went over. The crash site is roughly 8-9 miles from the airport (my parents house in between at about 4 miles from the airport). I looked on the map - it looked like the intersection we used to refer to as "four corners" - am I right? I used to date a girl that lived a few houses down from the intersection. When I lived there, there was a whole lotta nothing outside those few blocks, too. Tragic. Thoughts and prayers out to my hometown folks.
  17. Ok, let's see - Currently has high-paying job. Has a kid, wife is pregnant. Wants to quit and start a company with his good friend. Doesn't know anything about the business. Friend has no money to bring to the table. Wife is dead set against it. Nope, can't see anything wrong with this. Good luck!
  18. Born in WNY, I don't ever remember a time I was not a Bills fan, which I guess would make it the mid 60's. I will be a Bills fan as long as they are the Buffalo Bills. If and when they should leave, I'm done with the NFL. But not until then. I believe they have an opportunity to win every game; therefore I watch every game. I understand it is not likely that they will win every game, therefore I am not crushed when they lose. I hope they win enough games to play for and win a championship. Of course, I predict an undefeated championship season every year, so people think I'm nuts, anyway. But I'm a happy nut, so they can go teach their granny to suck eggs.
  19. Sorry it didn't work out here, JP. I don't doubt for a moment that you gave it your best. Yeah, the losses hurt, but I remember long TD bombs and some wild scrambles, too. You were pretty fun to watch when you were successful. Best of luck to you. The people who have less than kind things to say at this point? Simply aholes. They may know a lot about football (or not), but they haven't figured out how to be decent people, and I'm glad to not know them.
  20. Makes me want challenge someone to a spearing contest...
  21. What he said. And once in a while, you get teammates that are so wound up, they get nicknames like Bickering Bills. And then people worry about team chemistry. Coaches hate losing too. Buddy Ryan and Kevin Gilbride can testify.
  22. When Madonna and Sean Penn were a couple, he was the normal one. Not an easy feat.
  23. I would echo all the above comments. Including the McPeak one, lol. I also took away some pretty #@(*#$ colorful language. But the most important thing to me is the confidence and strength that, no matter what happens, I can adapt and overcome. "I'm in a world of sh--... yes. But I am alive. And I am not afraid."
  24. That probably still doesn't help the Sales Guy. http://www.thewebsiteisdown.com/
  25. I always enjoy when an actual network admin, dba or sysadmin gets on a call with the guy who opened a ticket with me to look at their application server - I can feel the disgust through the phone, lol. But I still think I can get the upper hand on a compulsive apostrophe user, hehe.
