Sounds like the Bills defense at about 4:15 p.m.

"When it's too tough for them, it's TOO TOUGH FOR US!"

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! <clug, clug, clug, clug, clug, clug> Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

If they wanted to be real bastards, they could send them to Queer Eye.

They're moving down the field at will. Our defense couldn't stop SDSU.

Ah, yes. Jerry Gray's bend-and-break defense.

Another Daimon Shelton goal line pass. Teams should know to defend only that play when we get inside the 5. Nice drive, tho. I haven't been deluding myself this week to think we stand a chance, just want to see JP get some good drives.

Ditto to everything you just said. And it might shake MM&TD's peaches a little bit re: our ability to compete with good teams. They were on Cloud Nine after the loss to the Pats; we were in that only b/c the Pats were playing like ass.

This would make my year! Would have been nice to get him alive. If for nothing else, just to !@#$ with his head, before cutting it off and putting it on a big pole. I don't normally condone torture, but in his case I'd've made an exception.

It was the gun she took from Sawyer in the earthen jail. It only had one bullet left. Its provenance goes back to the Air Marshal's Halliburton case. I would keep that in mind for the soon-to-come backstory on Kate's original crime. But the question stands, How would a gun operate after being in the water for a few hours? The answer is, it's television.

That's the thing. The Pats MO this year hasn't been about domination. They bring other team down to their level (meaning the level of backups), hang with them into the 4th quarter, then bring it on their final or final two drives. No, these are not the Pats of the last few years, but they can still play ball (and get a little help from the B&Ws) to win no matter how dirty they get. They're clinging to the remnants, which are starting to fray. Can't say that it's all that good of a strategy by BB, but it has gotten them in first in the AFC-E.

Per the article yesterday, MM started to call the majority of plays in week 6. Which, as memory serves, we started running the ball more consistently, rather than pass-pass-pass-punt. Not that it has been gleaming perfection since then, tho. And, it begs the question whether this leak from the otherwise mute 1BD was the reason Clements rescinded his application to coach at Temple. B/c for an OC, that was tantamount to a public castration. Can't say it wasn't deserved; it just boggles the mind how we could go from the offense last year that ran the ball effectively and had fairly good/conservative-but-not-too-conservative playcalling, to the dreck Clements was calling early on.

I don't think Ethan showed up on the main section beach until a couple of days after the crash, right? Could have been that the Otehrs had been scouting the tail section group and learning their names, etc. and then when Ethan went to the main beach, he used that name, that they had misheard from 'Nathan,' and said he was from Canada. Ana's interrogation of Goodwin was very weird. The Others are collecting the "good people"? As opposed to Bad People, who don't murder people? The Bible might be from the drug plane. And, duey, I don't remember any of the Others on the boat having an an eyepatch. It falls into the whole Live Together/Die Alone philosophy. And it's easy to look at people while seperating them from their social surroundings. It didn't look like the tail section had much of a plan, but they didn't have many supplies or very many people. From the looks, Ana could thrive in a bigger group and with some help. But she is very distrusting in general and much more concerned with security than the main beach, that didn't go all earthern pit jail on Day 17. ----- So, Eko was on the plane; I thought he'd been there a while based on how good a tracker he is and, for instance, how when he was with Jin he could sense when the Others were coming. He needs a mansiere tho. Liked the way this ep was written and segmented. Flashed onto the important scenes in the tail section's story. Some of the "Day --" segments were just a few seconds, others were much longer. Kind of fast-forward so we don't have to spend so much time seeing things that were pretty much the same things the main group was doing. I guess next week is the merge. TOMCAT, could you edit the title of the thread, (by clicking edit on your initial post) to read "LOST 2.07 Discussion Thread" and then in the subsection, "The Other 48 Days"? It makes the thread more specifically searchable for when people want to refer back to it. I'll send this in PM too.

Well, you are John C. McGinley in real life. And CTM is the man behind the curtain in Oz (on the side, he writes all the questions for Jeopardy! and Trivial Pursuit). All this from a comment about engine design, when anyone who's actually worked on a car in their life has probably invented swear words. But, I do remember my dad used to have his '70 LTD with a 390, and you seriously could change the oil on that while wearing a tuxedo on your wedding day. Some things have been made more simple, but every good feature is not collected in any one car. Most engine designs now involve there being about 1 inch of space after taking the filter off the screw, hand contortions, and having to do a balancing act with the filter. And this is just for a fuggin oil change. Ahh... the tribulations of playing Shady Tree Mechanic.

Somebody put a lot of time into that. Definitely some things to think about; esp that cabana-thing shaped like the I Ching and the metal spheres that look like the ones the Dharma people were using. Still, I think the leap he's taking on the theory re: they've been cryogenically frozen and placed there, etc. is a bubble off plumb.

They don't make QBs like that anymore.

Jim Kelly went to a NASCAR race the weekend after Hunter died. Different people have their own ways of dealing with their grief, either by throwing themselves into their work or distracting themselves and I make no judgments. But yeah, seeing Parcells docile and weepy (his face just looks like droopy PlayDough), it might have been better for him to sit this one out.

Call the Better Business Bureau and report what happened. Especially with identity fraud being one of the fastest-growing crimes.

Or, "General Motors Engine Specifications." (Especially when they have designs where you need to take apart half the engine and be triple-jointed just to be able to reach the oil filter, for those of us who are too frugal and untrusting to let another man touch your car except for major repairs.)

They tried it a few years back, and apparently the ratings suffered or the Left Coasters complained louder b/c the game started at 5 their time, even tho the population of the U.S. is overwhelmingly concentered East of the Mississippi/Continental Divide/ midwestern topographical feature of your choice. Likewise, I almost never make it to halftime. Games often last to 12:30 - 1 a.m., and it's ever creeping longer now with them adding in more commercials.

#$%^ NO! Steak and potatoes, heavy construction guy here. Just that, given the choice, why would anyone be staunchly opposed to being "just friends" with a woman? Try being less hostile, chief. Shoot. I could use some laughs.

When I worked at a high school, they did a photocopy of my license. That seemed to be more for the purpose of thoroughly checking out who they hire, which I would be leery if they didn't do in such an environment. Don't know why a fuggin hotel would take it. Tho in Europe I believe they keep copies of your passport or something, so Interpol knows exactly who's staying where. Or maybe that was from one of those spy movies... I don't remember. This being America, if that was one of their requirements for staying, on principle I'd just leave. People are standing up for our privacy rights less and less as we all become bleeting sheep to the new security age.

Villanova??? Pf-shhaw!

Especially women friends, because women are better than men. I've had some very good friendships, even if just sitting next to someone during a semester (*ahem* Sue Bird *ahem*) with girls/women about whom I had no intention of romancing (tho most were beautiful in their own way), I simply liked them for who they are. Good friends with my brother's quasi-ex-girlfriend --- where "the timing was just off" b/c he was away lots after 9/11. I don't know what it is anymore that people of the opposite genders can't really be true buddy-friends anymore. You ride on the roads, go to the store and it's all women hang with women, men hang with men. Or maybe it's just b/c I live in a state that allows civil unions?
