  1. "What's all this about my head size?" Bonds asked. "My hat size is the same today as when I started. My head hasn't grown. I've always been a 7 1-4 to a 7 3-8 my whole career. You can go check. "I can tell you my testicles are the same size," he added later. "They haven't shrunk. They're the same and work just the same as they always have." http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/3439412
  2. Flutie is still on SD. We'd be tampering. PS I know you're just joking
  3. Earlier in the week they had Ryan Fitzpatrick at 50 as the only score, but today he's at 38.
  4. Here are the combine Wonderlics on the QBs. I'll get more when the web site I subscribe to publishes them. So far all they have is QBs & some FBs. One fullback, Madison Hedgecock of North Carolina scored a 2. Smith, Alex* 40 Frye, Charlie 38 Fitzpatrick, Ryan 38 Rodgers, Aaron* 35 LeFors, Stefan 35 Ochs, Craig 34 Walter, Andrew 31 Orlovsky, Dan 30 Guidugli, Gino 30 Haldi, Josh 30 Campbell, Jason 28 Orton, Kyle 27 Long, Dustin 27 Rix, Chris 26 Chang, Timmy 26 McPherson, Adrian* 26 Dougherty, Ben 25 Anderson, Derek 23 White, Jason 21 Greene, David 19 Randall, Bryan 19 Allen, Jared 19 Berlin, Brock 13
  5. I'm shocked, but I can't think of a better backup. Great move, if anything happens to JP we've got a guy who not only has starting experience but also playoff experience & is not over the hill like Warner, Testaverde and others.
  6. The Browns have offered Holcomb 5 years $10 million. He's trying for 5 years $12 million. We're not going to pay him $2.4 million per for 5 years to backup JP. So, take Holcomb off the Bills list of possible backups.
  7. "Tough wide body lineman has played both guard and tackle for the Bears makeshift line over recent seasons before his release. He gained valuable experience in his short career and is a lineman with some upside if he proves healthy and settles into a position. The Bears cut him loose at midseason and made him a street free agent. He is still a young 26 years old with extensive experience and capable of being a big surprise in the right situation. He is only a stop gap tackle and needs to play guard where he excelled at Notre Dame as a collegian. "Boom or bust" addition with the tools to be a major FA steal"
  8. I think it went more like this: TD: Did you see Rayzer32's latest post on the Stadium Wall MM: Yes I did he's an f'n moron
  9. Because TD has determined that Williams & Jennings have priced themselves off the team. Pat Williams has a lot of miles on him & is overweight. He going to be 33 in October & is just not a good investment. Jennings is a little tougher to take because unlike Williams, he should be around in 5 years when a new contract might expire. However, Jennings has missed too many games to be given top $. I see nothing wrong with TD demanding value from players he signs for big $. Both Williams & Jennings are flawed players due to Williams' age and projected longevity, which isn't close to the # of years on the contract he'll sign and Jennings' lack of durability. Just because the cap room is there doesn't mean it's for a current Bill.
  10. Janay & Lindsay for the girls (Although I'd cut Mikalah before Lindsay) Constantine & Scott for the boys.
  11. I've never heard anything bad about him. He was a tragic figure a few years ago when he played in the Super Bowl and his son was dying.
  12. "It's my team"
  13. Somethings up with the backup RB situation.
  14. I entered the contest. A lot of my 300 words were about before & after the game so I'm worried that I'll be downgraded for that.
  15. I thought Anthony Federov & Bo Bice were the best tonight, but I still like Carrie Underwood to win it all. I thought Ozzie Smith's son, Nikko was the most improved from last week. He's probably the richest contestant since his father made millions in baseball.
  16. I have no clue what Dallas is thinking during their drafts, & I'm starting to believe that they don't either. It was quite obvious that NE was not thinking of replacing Bledsoe with Brady or anyone else within a year or 2, because they signed Drew to a big contract. That fact is quite clear. It all changed with the hit that sidelined Drew.
  17. I don't buy the idea Dallas didn't know who we were trading for. I knew it was Losman the second the Dallas helmet changed to a Bills helmet when I was watching the draft. If I knew it, I'm sure Dallas had it figured out because the only player that it made sense for the Bills to trade up for at that point was Losman, based on the availability of QBs the rest of the 2004 draft & the 2005 one. The Brady analogy has no context to Dallas, who have needed a QB for years, and has bben in position to draft one in the 1st round and instead put all their eggs in Carter/Hutchinson & then Carter/Henson baskets. NE didn't think they needed one when they drafted Brady-They had just given Drew a new contract which at the time they believed committed the QB job to Drew for the forseeable future.
  18. If I'm TD and Nugent is available & not on my board I'm going to b*tch slap Modrak and any scout within reach. Then I'm going to override my board and pick the guy who can win me the Super Bowl with one kick.
  19. If we could go back every year of the TD era, I'd bet someone posted the same question a couple of days before free agency began in most years.
  20. Part of my post was for humor, but where I think Dallas (Parcells) really messed up was for 2 straight years the Cowboys had a shot at getting a player at the most important position in football and decided they were content with what they had. In 2002, Byron Leftwich was available when Dallas picked, but they took a CB instead, content with Carter & Hutchinson. Last year they decided to put their future in the hands of a guy who wanted to play baseball, not football and was basically forced into going back to football because he was so bad at the game he truly loves (as were Carter & Hutchinson before him). Past history on QBs making that move shows a very poor success rate, Hutchinson should have taught them something. Now Parcells has no confidence in Drew Henson (actions speak louder than words) and is stuck with our reject. I hope JP makes it big, but no matter what happens, Dallas has completely bungled their QB selections. If JP & Leftwich are as good as each team's organization expects out of them Dallas looks like fools for missing out on both in consecutive years. Also, when we made the trade it was specifically for JP Losman, the same cannot be said at the time we gave Jacksonville pick 9 before the draft started.
  21. No way I have JP penciled in for Canton. I put it down in indelible ink. Dallas will be known as the team that traded away JP, just like Atlanta is known as the team that traded Bret Favre.
  22. You can't get much worse than NYC-extra city taxes, housing is super expensive all over etc & the teams are still able to get quality free agents. It also doesn't seem to hurt the California teams.
  23. We can get Newsday in Albany. It's too bad that the web link doesn't have the pictures of him on the sidelines that are in the newspaper. He looks pretty much the same + 30 years. When I was going to college at Fredonia the Braves used to train there.
  24. Great story-he's coaching in the ABA http://www.newsday.com/sports/basketball/n...tball-headlines
