It certainly cuts the gap and it also means that the "Have" teams won't be able to load up their rosters late in the season because they likely won't have the room to trade 2 minor leaguers and a pick for one of the 15 best players on the planet.
It's not a perfect solution, but it's a hell of alot better than having the top 5 teams spend twice as much as the bottom 5.
can you imagine the day when ONE of our 1st line forwards could actually make the 4th line or God forbid - the 3rd line - on Detroit?

According to the stats for today I have posted 74 times, but when I count up my posts, they total 45. Is today some sort of bonus day at TSW? For every 2 actual posts you make, you get credit for 3?
actually, you say more in 2 posts than most people say in 3...

Have you noticed how clean shaven Kate's underarms are. I mean you would think that there would be a little stubble showing even if she has a razor, given her dark hair. But it looks like it's shaved and powdered with coverup. I guess I'm jaded from watching the girls on Survivor, but it takes away from the reality of being lost on an island.
the one thing that bugs me on the realism front is the apparent lack of communication between everyone. It looks like everyone is behaving after a month like they did after a day. I would imagine they would all be a lot closer - afterall they could all die together and there is something/someone out there on the island and they just keep ,doing the same 'ol same 'ol.

My crazy-assed mother would make "observations" about pregnant women and how they carried their babies. If the baby was supposedly a girl - she would comment that the woman was carrying the baby in her ass....
I'm not actually sure how one moves their uterus to their ass, but mom was convinced of this little theory....
As for tonight's episode - did Kate only pack her smoking hot clothes for this trip?
-
just buy some of those RoboSapiens that were hot for Christmas this year and let 'em loose...!

Bledsoe didn't want to backup Brady, whom he mentored and was a (player who shouldn't have won a) SB MVP (but did). Why would he want to backup a guy he mentored but hasn't proven anything? Another way to take it is that he doens't see much in Losman yet, i.e. he's not even close to Bledsoe. And if you think Bledsoe sucks, you should be scared shitless by that thought.
yeah, this from a guy who would rather have a 4 second alarm clock go off in practice, than walk away with an ounce of dignity. His judgement is spot on...
-
I hope you're right. I was really taken aback when I heard him say that. He did say "I don't think I"d be happy being a backup to anyone, particularly JP" Whatever the motivations are for it, he could have used less misinterpretable words. People will argue tomAYto or tomAHto about it for a week. At the very least, it was a careless comment.
Sure, but he's speaking off the cuff, so mangling words is not unheard of.
The guy doesn't think of himself as a backup and certainly not one to a guy who has thrown 5 NFL passes... I don't see what the big deal is.
-
please....
IMHO, I think the best explanation is that he wasn't going to be a backup for someone who is just starting to cut his teeth in the league as opposed to being behind Manning or someone similar.
In other words, "I wouldn't even consider backing up Peyton Manning, let alone JP Losman."...
-
Yes, Garcia often got himself into trouble because of what he said to the media. It was always someone else’s fault. If he threw three interceptions it was because his receivers sucked and the OC didn’t know how to call the plays. If he fumbled it was because the O-Line didn’t know how to block. He never took any responsibility. Fans in Cleveland hated him for it.
Must be a CFL thing...

it's not a topic worthy of discussion. people are not escorted out because they hold a certain opinion, which your post implied.

I'm really arguing with myself here (which is very ICE-esq, I suppose), but I have to wonder: why cut Drew? why even tell him he's being demoted? why not go into camp with an "open" competition, making Drew think he has a chance to win the job, then name Losman the starter right before the season starts? then, at least, you have an experienced backup QB. Drew's under contract, IMO it's not worth cutting him just to do him a favor... the team should come first. Perhaps there is something else going on, I don't know - it just doesn't make sense to me. The guy signed a contract. You get almost no cap relief by releasing him - might as well force him to be a backup, it's not like he's known for creating QB controversies. Also, now JP is gonna think the job is his and he doesn't have to win it.
Hmm....
there is his $1M roster bonus on March 1st.

Try that in major markets. Why the hell do you think the Sabres can't compete with the Redwings, Avalanche, etc.
Colorado: Glass: $225 plus surcharge. Rows 2-5 $154 plus surcharge. After that (all with surcharge), $128, $108, $99, $70, $60, $50, $42, $25.
The league average for a family of four to attend a regular season game was over $250 (includes: two adult average-price tickets, two child average-price tickets, two small draft beers, four small soft drinks, four regular-size hot dogs, parking for one car, two game programs and two of the least expensive adult-size adjustable caps.) for 2003.
That's WAY too much money and it has lost them an entire generation of young fans.
The Sabres are among the cheapest tickets in the NHL. The Devils, Avalanche, and Red Wings are the highest. Hmmm...
although not the point of your post - it's a tad bogus when they include "2 programs" and "2 souvenirs" in the final cost of a family night out. Who gets 2 programs? I can see the souvenirs if you go once a year, but if you attend a few games I doubt you pick up hats, etc... every time you go. Even then they should have 4 sodas and forget the beer.
with that said - the price is ridiculously high to see 1/84th of the season.

I just got an outrageous quote for a walk in front of the house. I always assumed $5-$8/sq. ft. for materials and $10-$20/sq. ft. installation cost.
What prices are people paying in your area for brick pavers?
-
absolutely...
I always find it convienient when local govts claim they need to raise taxes to make up for budget shortfalls, but when there is a surplus they raise taxes for those needed new programs.
Here in Howard County, MD - they justified a 50% local income tax increase because the Feds gave us a tax cut, so we shouldn't really see any difference...
-
the problem is the county doesn't provide enough services, so people leave. An influx of new spending progams will attract new residents and businesses.

Bledsoe should be gone for the simple reason that the coaches needed a fuggin' ALARM CLOCK in practice. The sheer embarrassment should have inspired retirement to the woods of Montana at the very least....
The thought a supposed "HOF" QB needing an alarm clock to tell when to throw is about as absurd as it gets.

If you go to his site he has links for billszone, !@#$ and a couple other but not TSW. Is there a reason it isn't linked there?
I've never really pursued link exchanges very much. Nothing more, nothing less...

Before the draft comes along - I would like to have some controlled tests done (FWIW) to monitor changes in server configurations. If you have done ab or similar tests before - speak up!

1st, it was pretty bush that Claire "got away" from Ethan.... Please.
2nd, Surely Ethan was watching them as they took their positions.
3rd, how does Charlie just show up and pick up the gun and fire in the dark of night?
4th, they must be cutting back on scenery because 95% of the episode was at night!
