Vick takes some serious dives. You can't blame him, because he gets 15 yards out of it, but as soon as he feels the slightest push near the sideline, he throws himself down and slides across the turf. Automatic flag. He had one yesterday where he was heading out of bounds, but the replay showed he was clearly still in bounds. The Miami safety gave him a light shoulder, and Vick threw himself down and went flying out of bounds. Flag was in the air before he stopped skidding.

There's too many to count. Two that come to mind that really cracked me up were: 1) Lisa and Marge go to clean up after an oil spill, leaving Homer and Bart at home, and Bart ends up working in the burlesque house. 2) Homer pledging $$ to PBS, and then having to fly to the island as a missionary. "Dad, are you licking toads again?" "I'm not NOT licking toads."

They are teens who were born in France, but they are also predominantly children of Arab parents. I think it may be an important part of the equation, and that's why the news media reported it as such. These kids feel like they are French, but they are not treated like they are French. To simply say "French teens rebel due to bleak outlook for future" leaves out a big part of why they are rebelling, and why the future looks bleak for them.

I've been known to hold my own, but that involves a whole different film genre entirely!!!

Man the Bills suck. Here I thought we had a horse running back who, while not breaking 65-yard TD runs, is still moving the ball effectively and giving our shaky QB's a lot of 2nd & 5's and 3rd & 2's. He is tough to bring down, and ALWAYS falls forward for an extra yard or two. He's top 5 in the NFL in rushing vs. defenses who know he's the Bills meal ticket, so they load up against the run. I've seen him get stronger on runs 25-35 after banging up the middle all game. But now I come to find out he is just average. So I guess there's twenty other backs in the NFL could do what Willis is doing, but about 15 of them are just choosing not to?

I see these teams as pretty even...The standard is 3 points to the home team, so the morning line sees the Chiefs as slightly favored, with a bump to the Bills for homefield. If the game was in KC, opening line would probably be Chiefs by 5.5 or so, just because they are so tough at home and the Bills are a disaster on the road.

I just saw The Girl Next Door the other day. I only watched about the first hour, so I didn't see the end, but it wasn't half bad up to that point. Elisha Cuthbert looks AMAZING in this movie where she plays a porn star.

Genius Simon is spewing more garbage around the college football forum. You immediately lose all credibility for placing Georgia at #2 and Alabama at #3. Florida at #7 and Southern Cal at #8??? You are a clown. I already listed the Top-10 teams USC has beaten in the past three years here. But while stating that they haven't beaten a Top 10 team, you also stated that you place no stock in the info I listed because, in your opinion, the rankings are flawed. Oh yeah, and Bowl Games don't count. The national championship game is a pointless bowl game? If anyone else wants a good chuckle, you can read Simon's Einstein reply here. As an alumni of USC, I don't pretend that my views are not biased. But I am also willing to wager that I have seen three-times as many USC games as you have over the past 4 years, and I have not seen a college team that is better. Texas can probably hang in with them, but other than that, USC is dominant. Because they beat teams by 35 points, you assume their schedule is weak. And yet you list Texas as your #1, playing in the INCREDIBLE Big 12. Going on the road to defeat Notre Dame, Oregon, and Arizona State, plus Cal and UCLA in the next few weeks, is no easy task. But you keep making up things to defend your ass-backwards rankings. You think USC would have squeaked one out at home vs. Vanderbilt in OT, like your #7 Florida did? Your #8 team has won 31 straight, #1 in the AP poll for 29 straight weeks, and has won 42 out of 43 games, with the only loss coming at Cal in 3OT. They have the best QB, the best RB, and one of the top 5 WR in the nation. I don't know why you have to continue to trash them and their schedule.

Ha! I was just thinking she was definitely the hottest one, but she looks like she's standing to take a leak against that tree, and someone called her name so she looked over her shoulder...

I'll hop on the home team in each game. Miami could be dangerous, because they are in a rare position: underdog, and out-hyped in the media compared to Virginia Tech. But to win this night game on the road on national TV, the Canes will need some huge special teams play. I'll stick with the Hokies. Wisconsin is a tough team to figure out, I'll take Penn State. Oregon is a quality team. They play well at home, and their only loss is to Southern Cal in a game that they were winning throughout the first half. In Berkeley I probably go with Cal, but at Oregon, I'll take the Ducks. Talk about a tough team to figure out...just when you think Tennessee is down and out, they win a game like this. But as we all know: two QB's = zero QB. Irish should roll at home. As for the others, A&M at Tech- who cares? Big 12 sucks. Mizzou at Colorado- playing for the right to get blasted by Texas in the conference final...I say Buffs at home. Trojans cover, win by 34 at home.

NICE!!! Will she throw for eight yards on 4th & 7?

Rayzer, you were close- Bruschi (We're not worthy!) (take hats off and place over hearts) does not make the call for the Bills. However, the ref IS flipping the new silver dollar from the U.S. Mint with Tedy's head on it.

Angelina Jolie. I know she gets freaky.

But how many hits did Sape have?

I love "Holiday Road" from National Lampoon's Vacation.

I agree with you Bart, but don't waste your time being upset about it. There are thousands of people who get paid to write articles, and you knew somebody was going to mention this. It was clear the ND admins liked Ty's program, but they were clearly second-tier when they played the big dogs. When they fired Ty and gave their Sunday-Friday speech, everyone gave them flack for tarnishing the Notre Dame image, and justifying the fact that academics and molding tomorrow's leaders are not as important as football. I gave them credit. The bottom line is that you have to win games. NBC does not have an exclusive contract with them because their team has a 3.6 GPA. I also agree that while Weis probably would have stayed, you couldn't be certain. If the Green Bay Packers were throwing $3 million at him, who knows? They found the coach they want and they locked him up. The only problem I have with Ty's firing is that this was the make or break year. It would have been right to give him a chance with his own players. He was in their living rooms recruiting these guys. But there's a rule in business that when you know somebody is not right for the job, you should cut ties immediately. The longer you let the situation drag out, the more of a mess it becomes at the end.

Top Gun?

A woman and her 7 year-old son hail a cab in Manhattan. The cabbie picks them up and they are cruising along. As they come to a red light, the boy sees a bunch of prostitutes standing on the corner. He says, "Mommy, what are those ladies doing?" "They're waiting for the bus, son" the mother replies. Up front the cab driver shoots a dirty look into the rear view mirror. "Oh come on lady, you gotta be kidding me" he scowls. "Why don't you just tell him? The kid is going to find out eventually." The cabbie adjusts his mirror so he can see the boy. "Hey kid," he says, "those ladies are prostitutes. Men give them money so that those women will have sex with them." The mother is PISSED, and the boy is perplexed. A minute later, he tugs on his mother's arm. "Hey mommy, what happens to the little babies after the men have sex with those ladies?" "Well son," she says, "They grow up to be cab drivers."

Scrimmage in Rochester?

Your furry beanbag?

Yeah their OLine was a brick wall, and there were some nice pickups by the Ravens RB (not Lewis, the other guy.) Couple that with a mobile, shifty QB and the "elaborate" Pittsburgh blitzes didn't look too imposing.

Limited, no doubt...Often plays the exact same character...But also hilarious, IMO.

I thought for sure it was going to be ruled incomplete after the review. He double clutched the ball as he was reeling it in, and some portion of the ball appeared to touch the ground and then squirm up a bit in his arm. However: 1. Branch was wide open. 2. The Bills might have considered stopping them after the call was upheld. Just like on the Henry Jones PI call on the Hail Mary, they did not need to leave Ben Coates (the ONLY guy Bledsoe was going to throw to) open in the back of the endzone. Sorry about bringing that up.
