Stop being so level headed about this...don't you know that TSW is all about the over-reaction? Anderson's skill set (and age) don't fit the new defensive. Simple as that. Why this is a mystery to the nattering nellies on this board is itself a mystery...

I don't feel like doing the research the day before a holiday, but I'd wager I could come up with similar examples from 25+ teams if I poked around the net a bit. It's just a cost of doing business, and one that represents 0.00000002% of Ralph's (or any owner's) fortune...

The British are so polite with their complaints
Lurker replied to Just Jack's topic in Off the Wall Archives
That letter about the in-flight meal was transcendent: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travelnews/4344890/Virgin-the-worlds-best-passenger-complaint-letter.html -
$hitt happens. He was always an insurance policy--and a wasted 7th round pick and some of Ralph's money were the premium they paid to have that coverage. Then they shopped around (i.e., the draft), got better coverage for less money (EJ) and said "Thanks TJ for letting us sleep at night, goodbye and good luck." No big deal...

Hollywood is out of ideas, example # 3,865

Wouldn't be more like the viewing public is out of things to do? These reboots keep filling the theaters, so it's not that surprising. -

Spooky synchronicity, huh?

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/06/27/mario-williams-pokes-fun-at-hernandez-on-instragram-page/ Too many cringe-worthy stories about him lately, IMO. This will be an interesting year for Mario in a defense that should feature him more than Wanny's did...

Patriots' Hernandez arrested in homicide investigation
Lurker replied to Golden Wheels's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Pretty damning stuff: "Surveillance footage showed the rented Nissan Altima that Hernandez was driving went down the remote gravel road in North Attleboro leading to the industrial area where Lloyd’s body was found at 3:23 a.m. , the prosecutor said. “At 3:27 a.m., the car came back up the road, the prosecutor said. People who were working the overnight shift at a nearby business reported hearing multiple gunshots at about that time, the prosecutor said. “He (Hernandez) drove the victim to that remote spot and then orchestrated his execution,” the prosecutor said." http://bostonherald.com/news_opinion/local_coverage/2013/06/aaron_hernandez_charged_with_murder_held_without_bail -

The 30 Harshest musician on musician insults
Lurker replied to Buftex's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Pretty lame list. For the most part, less talented people slagging more talented people...go figure! (Although I did get a good chuckle out of Elton John's put downs. And Grohl is absolutely spot on) -
The desecration of Three Sisters Islands
Lurker replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Maybe they can get a bit more, now that it's more accessible: "The islands and their trails are being made accessible to the disabled, to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. One of the main improvements is providing more established overlooks on designated trails. Rehabilitation work has been done to the bridges linking the islands, and parking spots have been added nearby, including handicapped parking. Invasive plant species also have been removed from the islands. As part of the parkwide plan, all trolley stops are being replaced. The stop at Three Sisters will be the first one completed. Scott Lawn Yard of Sanborn is the contractor for the improvements at Three Sisters. “The work that is being done is truly spectacular and will serve to bring back the vision of Olmsted to this park and really give patrons a sense that they are in a very special place,” said Gallivan, Cuomo’s spokesman. The head of Niagara County’s tourism promotion agency said he welcomes the improvements at the park, which will help both visitors and the “overall tourism product” of the Falls. “Any improvements to the crown jewel of the state parks” will enhance the experience visitors have, said John Percy, president and CEO of the Niagara Tourism and Convention Corp." http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130523/CITYANDREGION/130529607 -
The desecration of Three Sisters Islands
Lurker replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in Off the Wall Archives
If the passage from the website is the credo for your grass roots movement, then stand behind it and don't play the violins when challenged about the hypocrisy of wishing for a past when it is gone and "we are left with what is." The Falls isn't some personal clubhouse or amber-covered fossil...http://www.niagarafallsstatepark.com/img/3.0-OldestPark_header1.jpg. As the Olmsted representative appropriately said, “...It is a good balance between the Olmsted principles of creating a naturalistic experience while at the same time accommodating 8 million visitors a year.” Emphasis on the eight million visitors being the critical part of that sentence, IMO... -
