In SoCal we refer to that particular act as an "Asner" I have no idea why Carbonated beverages are even worse

More than half of the people in Spaulding Lakes (Clarence, NY) or Eagle Heights (OP) don't even know what the word mortgage means

The "game" and times have changed as have the selectors and the media (PR) driven criteria - no subjective selection systems such as this is even close to perfect. The "old quard" was pickier IMHO. If Larry Felser had been pitching TT - #34 might have fared better

Loonies or pesos ?

Then - I guess we should consider his CFL stats also - no dome there Bob Matthews writes a good column (for once) http://www.democratandchronicle.com/apps/p...0334/-1/COLUMNS

"Looking at stats only, how do you keep him out. Still on the issue of stats, Art Monk's stats sure look impressive, but he is still on the outside looking in." Stats are misleading and I am in total agreement with MDH. I have the hindsight (or handicap) of being a little older and remembering a very different NFL - long before expansion diluted the talent pool and the stats. I guess my criteria for the HOF is based more on player "impact" than stats. Who did the other side have to game plan against ? I grew up watching Fran Tarketon - he was "feared" by the other side Walter Payton - Barry Sanders drove the defense nuts Bruce Smith is a sure first rounder based on my criteria and much as I dislike him as a selfish player Warren Moon had his time - just like Mr. Kelly - but IMHO opinion neither had first year selection written on them - part of the selection process involves some marketing and scheming - do they deserve to be there - hell - yes - first time - probably not. That all being said - I did not expect TT to be a first rounder - he had a great career - but he was part of a machine - not the driving force. And for what it matters - Michael Irvin (can) and Andre (will) cry all they want but Art Monk on the outside looking in is a disgrace to the HOF selectors

Must you bring up RJ ?

"Each teams fans believe they have a chance at the playoffs at the start of the season, with no team buying up all the best players due to economies of scale. " Do you know any Cardinals fans ?

Look at the career passing yards on this chart - that doesn't count his CFL years If Fran T. can be there - Warren can too - black, white or sepia

Someone had better read up on the Antarctic Treaty http://www.antarcticconnection.com/antarct...aty/index.shtml

Best Proposition Bet: Will Kobe outscore the Seahawks - Steelers ? http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/det...5&entry_id=2811

"It's not football - unless you have frozen snot in your moustache !" Randy the Weatherman - 1999 Norton & Stout Bills' CD

Bill - You make the false assumption that the NFL cares

The SkyDome is not an NFL calibre stadium

That would be Erie, PA. and I second your sentiment Then again, some will maintain that we must support the AFC

I'm going to try my hand at home made stuffed (hot) banana peppers - a dish I always enjoy eating out - and someone from the CNJBB made at the TBD tailgate. I researched various recipes for the stuffing and am just going to "wing it" while breaking in the broiler on my new oven.

If Cowher and the Steelers don't lose on Sunday - the day will have been for naught.

Sports Teams in Anaheim seem to be having "name" issues http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/hock...name/index.html Oh - How The Mighty Can Fall

It turn's out that America Jr. thinks all that water to the North Pole is theirs' http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/20...rper060126.html Defend it against what ?

So - we expect ??? I saw Washington, Paup and Jeffcoat happen all at once - not that I expect history to repeat - but Is optomism that inplausible ? Teams turn around very quickly. BTW - Marv's hiring leaves me blase.

I used song lyrics: You ask how much I love you must I explain I need you oh my darling like roses need rain You ask how long I'll love you I'll tell you true Until the 12th of never I'll still be loving you Hold me close never let me go Hold me close melt my heart like april snow I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom I'll love you till the clover has lost it's perfume I'll love you till the poets run out of rhymes Until the 12th of never and that's a long long time Until the 12th of never and that's a long long time
