Bill from NYC

I know all about you, your childhood days, Your mom and dad, your pretty face. Mean mistreater, if you need me, I'm needin' you, to set me free

Judge said "Son this gonna cost you some time." Dupree said "Judge, you know that crossed my mind." Judge said "Fact, it's gonna cost you your life." Dupree said "Judge, you know that seems to me to be about right."

No doubt. Tennessee would be insane not to place the Franchise Tag on him. It looks to me like he might fetch 15 million per season or perhaps more on an open market with huge guaranteed money, no?

If I could build my whole world around you, I'd make your eyes the morning sun. I'd put so much love where there is sorrow, I'd put joy where there's never been none. Then I'd give my love to you, For you to keep for the rest of your life, Oh and happiness would surely be ours, And that would be all right, oh yes it would.

Only you know and I know All the love we've got to show, So don't refuse to believe it By reading too many meanings. 'Cause you know that I mean what I say, So don't go and take me the wrong way. You know you can't go on getting your own way, 'Cause if you do, it's going to get you someday.

My baby loves me, she gets a feeling so fine And when she love me, she makes me know that she's mine And when she kisses, I feel the fire get hot She never misses, she gives it all that she's got And when she asks me if everything is okay I got my answer, the only thing I can say I say yeh yeh, that's what I say I say yeh yeh

I am at a complete loss as to why Steve Atwater is not already in the HOF. The man was an all time great.

What rose to the top was the power running game. It HAD to happen sooner or later. We all know that the NFL is a passing league and the defenders are smaller. It even applies to the college game. I heard Nick Saban say that many linebackers who were flat out stars on his defense several years ago would probably not be starters today. Jackson didn't lose that game. Derrick Henry and his blockers pounded the Raven into defeat. They were unable to stop him and beaten half to death by trying to. That team collectively is in quite a bit of physical pain right now. I am loving it.

Awesome. Person 1: "Where are you going?" Person 2: "To get my car washed." Person 1: "Awesome." I hear that word every single day. My daughter hates "paradigm." She says that more often than not it is misused. I wouldn't know.

You're gonna fly away, Glad you're goin' my way, I love it when we're cruising together. The music is played for love, Cruising is made for love, I love it when we're cruising together.

I am going to respectfully decline, thanks.

I really do agree Bob but we need a top receiver and there are many out there who look like absolute stars. Oh yeah but it can work either way. We didn't draft Mahomes or Watson (who we desperately needed) and drafted a corner. We have made mistakes from all angles, no?

He might even have learned just a little bit from coaching under Belichick and Saban.

Long distance runner, what you standin' there for? Get up, get out, get out of the door. You're playin' cold music on the barroom floor, Drowned to your laughter and dead to the core. There's a dragon with matches, loose on the town, Take a whole pail of water, just to cool him down.

I think that Clemson will win outright. Too much of a difference in coaching.

Woman, when I saw you comin' Should've started runnin' Evil woman Woman, I offered to you my soul You ran it over hot coals You evil woman Woman, thought you were a blessin' Then I caught you messin' Evil woman Woman, you ain't got no feelin' You're just a dirty dealin' Yeah I don't know how many will remember this old number by Spooky Tooth.

That makes sense. I get the fraud, not the bribe. I expect the case to be tossed. As you say, lots of others are involved in similar situations I think they will decide that this is better left alone.

Something happens and I'm head over heels, I never find out, till I'm head over heels. Something happens and I'm head over heels, Ah, don't take my heart don't break my heart Don't, don't, throw it away.

But Tom in federal law, does one have to be a public servant to take a bribe as is the case in NYS Law? If so, I would love to be her lawyer. USC is a private school.

OK, so we are not talking about bribery?

I hear ya but from what I understand, this took place at USC, a private school, no? I'm not a lawyer (my daughter and son in-law are) but I am thinking that the intent was simply admission to a private school. I know that virtually every school gets some federal funding too, but so do folks on social security. Like I said, I don't know enough about the case but I fail to see a bribe here. Edit: My big tip at a bar could be to encourage free drinks, which would be at the expense of the bar. Confusing but interesting stuff.

Yeah, this thread brings back some great songs/lyrics. Go see Winwood when he comes around. He sounds like he did 50 years ago.

Do forgive me but I didn't read the entire thread. The premise of this thing is bogus imo. The person who was "bribed" was NOT a public servant. I don't know the federal law but in NY, only a public servant can be guilty of bribe receiving. It would appear that the people involved would have the resources to take this to the Supreme Court and would win by perhaps even a 9-0 decision. If not, will bartenders be arrested for getting bigger tips for faster service? Or a maître d in a restaurant for providing a better table? Jmo but I think that the govt. will either drop or lose this case. Edit: Of course the person who received the money should be fired.

This is just so true. I have never seen a draft with so many top receivers. From what I heard, Davonta Smith was told that he would probably be a 2nd round pick. I know how good that kid is and cannot comprehend how this is true, but it must be the reason that he stayed in school.

Colin Kaepernick will be elected president and replace Brad Pitt as a leading man before Tua slides down to where we pick.
