  1. Who was captain questionable supposed to be?
  2. That screen pass play was pretty incredible. Most of the rest looked like a lot of crappy tackling! That said, the kid is pretty amazing.
  3. Beg pardon? I've got some balls to accuse Dubya of trying to further split the country? I fail to see how I actually did that. Dubya's doing a great job of it all by his lonesome. I'm just pointing out what our Dubya said. He said he was going to reach out to his opponents. Then he reveals he's going to reach out to them just as long as they go along with his agenda. But somehow I have the balls to accuse him of something? Your subsequent referral to Moore just reeks of another Pavlovian response of the right whenever Dubya's comments, motivations, or agenda are questioned. As for Gavin's comment, I'm not even sure that requires a response. Unless you've got yourself a monarchy, politics is a give and take process, even with a majority. Just under half of this country doesn't agree with Dubya's agenda. If he wants to force it down everybody's throats, the response should be fairly predictable. As for Dubya's agenda... All during the campaign Dubya kept wailing about "Where's he gonna find the money?" when referring to Kerry's plans. Argue all you want about how Kerry's plans were or were not more expensive than Dubya's. Point is, Dubya claims he's now got a mess of political capital and he's planning on one hell of a spending spree. Those grand plans of his are going to cost a boatload of money that we just don't have. Where's he gonna find the money? Who's gonna get the bill? Not to worry, our kids and grandkids will figure out a way to deal with it. I wonder what real Republicans -- you know, the kind that could actually be called "Republicans" not too long ago -- are now thinking of this administration.
  4. Well, what gets me is that the day after the election, he pledges to work with those who didn't support him. The day after that, he basically says he'll work with them as long as they go along with his plans. I see.
  5. I was hoping he would take the Florida job, so Utah can keep Urban Meyer. Oh well.
  6. Damn I almost spit out my drink when I read that!
  7. Speaking of that, I found a map that shows how everything will eventually be drawn... welcome to the real world
  8. How should I deal with the depression I'm feeling after this election?
  9. Hey watch it buddy
  10. Right now it looks like high of 53, 20% chance of rain, winds about 15 mph. We'll see!
  11. Sue, have you been smoking something funny?
  12. Damn, I was really counting on Rodney coming through for us this year and starting at RT once we move Big Mike over to guard. Plus, I'd get to yell at somebody named Rodney.
  13. I think at this point I'd rather see Cowart out there against us as opposed to Vilma.
  14. There's a difference?
  15. I certainly don't watch it, but as some of you know, my stepbrother is in wrestling. I've heard a lot about wrestling from him, and even put myself through the torture of watching him in person once. It's a silly form of entertainment, but I have some respect for it (not much, but some) for a few reasons: 1. It gave him a great opportunity to make something out of his life. Without wrestling, he would almost certainly be in jail right now. 2. The people in wrestling, for the most part, are really good people; his ex-wife, Sable, is just a real sweetheart. 3. They really do beat the crap out of each other sometimes; he's had multiple (and severe) injuries and surgeries, and frequently gets his noggin cracked open. His body has taken some real punishment from this. That's about it, though. I definitely find it a fascinating yet somewhat sad form of entertainment.
  16. The grandmother statement was classic!
  17. It really is perplexing. You would think these are some of the most motivated individuals, but I guess that stereotype of the politically-motivated college kid is just way outdated. Nevertheless, while I can see the apathy that arises from both of these uninspiring candidates, there are still issues to be concerned with. While the average college kid may not have much to say about health care, the economy, taxes, or the like, you would think there still has to be something to motivate them to vote. The environment? The makeup of the Supreme Court? Views on abortion? It's hard to imagine that they would have so little interest on saying something, anything, about some of these issues. Ay carumba.
  18. You can say that again!
  19. Wow, that hurts. Get it? That hurts. God, I kill myself.
  20. Wait, is this the sarcasm thread?
  21. ESPN says 4-6 weeks
  22. My question is, do the cops watch everybody that closely? I've had seats for years and I can't imagine anyone being able to see me mess around with a pair of binoculars to take a shot.
  23. Oh, I thought you were going to give us your prostate level. Never mind.
