A new line, a new starting rb. - 5 yards - motion or offside penalty.

I'd say so, too. THX for the info!

Don't pig out on soy. There are some problems - including celiac disease because of the intense gluten loadings in meat substitutes. And keep on top of how to get the essential amino acids that lack in the veg diet. Search around. Presumptiously Yours, stuck

Possibly OSU's Pittman if available to them on Day 1. Decent moves, hands, speed. A nice overall package. It's a fair to question him as a choice, though...playing with a powerhouse OSU offensive club.

Hmmm....I didn't know there were pesticide-fed and grown pets out there for sale. I learn something new every day... j/k

I hope there are no holdouts....

Very Rudy80-ish...

The Cali solons - as they often do - put forth regulations far in excess of your stated 1%. No admission on their sainted fanny's part about how idiotic their ideas were as they quietly rescinded. Because CA is full of appointees and elected clowns and a slappy population that think that because with a simple snap of their self-assured, supremely self-important fingers, prevailing science and knowledge must invent a new physics. Think about it. Do you seriously think that if GM perceived that there was a buck to be made, they wouldn't jump on it? And I ask...did the propaganda piece gig Honda for similar approach...or not?

Dunno. I've come across rookie allocation figures for 2006. I think it's a set figure (NFLPA certainly protects their current members well-being above all - and more or less lifts the leg on the outsiders until they fork over the dues). I stiill wonder if indeed, the pie is set at a certain size, and then a player's agent says - no-go, my boy ain't reporting - it's your problem that you have so many %$3!# high choices...

AFAIK, the rookie cap allocation bux are a separate pidgeonhole, but is part of the overall cap. I know that the rookie allowed amount is higher, the higher one drafts. I'm not at all sure if the figure gets adjusted if a team acquires picks before - or during the draft. I wonder if a team with a bunch of selections, especially on Day 1, could have signing troubles because the set bundle of $ then has to be divvied up among more draftees. I guess I'm wondering if the Bills might face holdouts.

Thank you, Airman. Few today remember the hair-trigger days of yore, the CD shelters, and so forth.

Me too. A canny vet is plus in a zone coverage scheme like Cover 2. The Bills' 2nd pick may well be a CB, if only to stock up for the future.

Call 'em. Two possibilities: 1) They are hidebound, and can't tolerate something out of the normal course of business. 2) They are smart, and realize that the name of the game is to make the cash register sing.

I thought you kept to wine...

And thus, you are embiggened...

If I may add 2 watts... The person who said she was the prime mover 'n shaker of that flick was a gust on the local AM radio talk show here in Cincy, a few months ago. I was left with the impression that "Who Kiled the Electric Car" is a propaganda piece for feeding to the gullible and to schoolchildren, along the lines of "Farenheight 911" and Al's "Inconvenient Truth". She contended that the GM vehicle, the all-electric EV-1 in the late '90's, was ultimately taken off the market and not allowed to be sold, reason being some sort of nefarious plot. Hmm….. The EV-1s were strictly test vehicles, manufactured to evaluate the real-world viability of an all-electric car . It was never to be offered for sale...it was a lease-only item. A test of it, as well as the 1997 monthly lease price ($399) was published in a magazine - Consumer Review Cars '98 Buyers Guide, Harris Publications Inc., 1115 Broadway, NY, NY 10010). She failed to mention a similar test vehicle from Honda (thou shalt not criticize Honda ). That same publication tested the 1998 Honda EV Plus, like the GM car - only available as a lease ($455 per month). Both companies had the identical intent - data collection -and neither was working a conspiracy. And both found out that an all-electric vehicle needed considerably more development. She mentioned a vehicle being produced in California as proof of electric car viability, a vehicle offering stunning acceleration. That vehicle is the Tesla (inconveniently, not in production). It is contemplated by a company named Tesla Motors, a San Mateo start-up company. It's an electric conversion of an existing exotic sports car, the Lotus Elise. Here is what the Tesla is (source: Automotive Engineering International, Volume 115, No. 1, January 2007, The Society of Automotive Engineers): “Tesla's backers include Elon Musk, founder of PayPal and CEO of SpaceX, as well as Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page. Martin Eberhard, CEO of Tesla, and Marc Tarpenning, Vice President of Electrical Engineering and acting Chief Financial Officer, founded and sold NuvoMedia, an electronic book maker. The result is that Tesla lacks for neither funding nor technical expertise. Nevertheless, even with its $60 million in backing, Tesla is still dwarfed by the resources GM dedicated to developing the EV1, so the obvious question is what makes Tesla's attempt different from the previous efforts? The answer lies in simple motivation of the participants, insists Tarpenning. "We love to drive, and our company is full of gearheads. We are building a car by and for people who love to drive. That is why we built a sports car first." “The Tesla Roadster boasts true sports car performance, with a projected 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) time of about 4 s and a top speed of 130 mph (209 km/h). Driven less vigorously, the car can achieve a highway range of 250 mi (400 km). Attacking the electric car market with a car that prioritizes performance also gives Tesla the benefit of participating in a segment where high prices are not unusual. Previous economy oriented electrics have typically stumbled on their high prices, but Tesla expects that, in the sports car segment and at the low sales volumes forecast, the $100,000 price should not be an obstacle. Indeed, the car sold out its initial production run of 100 cars just a month after its announcement." "With help from Lotus, and also conversations with Panoz Auto Development on matters of building and selling low-volume sports cars, Tesla will be able to meet federal stan dards, but Tarpenning admits that the job was harder than expected. "A certain amount of naivete is required to be an entrepreneur," he chuckled. " "An issue unique to electrically powered cars is the safety of the high-voltage battery systems. Batteries must be treated with care while charging and discharging, as well as protected in the event of a crash. "We've gone through some learning exercises to learn what makes battery systems safe," said Tarpenning." “A big advance came with the decision to build the battery pack using many small cells rather than fewer, more powerful ones. "That leads to a much safer battery pack because in each individual battery the energy level is controllable. That strategy brought its own problems, however. "Getting that many batteries to work together is not trivial," Tarpenning explained. Great care must be taken in charge balancing and watching the temperature of the 6831 cells, a job that has consumed about half the effort the company has put into developing the car, he said.” “California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger received a ride in the Tesla Roadster at the car's announcement, where the car attracted orders from other Hollywood types such as George Clooney”.

Not bad. A couple of years ago, a number of folks thought we should draft 2 QBs, 2 TEs, and 3 WRs.

Absolutely. And he was a big RB, not a teensy scat back.

I KNEW it!!!!!!

The Bills should send him a pizza, and ask him to write if he finds work.

Sooooo....the difference between BUF, at 7 and 9, and IND at 13 and 3...is...six "Madden" points? Quite a game.

I don't know a thing about the Madden game. So I don't understand these numbers - they look like today's chronic grade inflation...everybody is above average. How would the numbers look for last year's playoff teams, in comparison?

He's a decent back. Nothing wrong with speculating!
