  1. Nobody's coming near my junk with a scalpel, ever.
  2. I think he'll come back if he has a chance at a 4th 3-peat.
  3. The continuous clock is one part of the game I actually like (shocking, I know). It's cool knowing exactly how long a game is going to last in real time. In fact, I think there shouldn't even be extra time unless there was an injury/delay which took an excessive amount of time to clear up.
  4. Yeah, Montana was heaving bombs around, but there's a big difference between running a West-coast style offense like Montana did and actually "checking down". Checking down implies that the quarterback has examined all of his options down the field and found nothing, so he decides to avoid a negative play and get 3-5 yards out of a RB/FB/TE.
  5. Two years ago when the Bills started 5-1, the Edwards-Montana comparisons were naive. Now, it's just plain stupid.
  6. Care to link? Sounds like that article would be good for a laugh.
  7. I don't even get what the people blowing the !@#$ing things get out of the experience? Do these people actually enjoy the noise or are they just deliberately trying to annoy everybody and draw attention?
  8. Good example was today's Ghana-Serbia game. Ghana scores on a penalty-kick in the 82nd minute to go ahead 1-0. Including extra time, there were about 12 minutes left for Serbia to score the equalizer. In most sports (most notably hockey) this would be 12 minutes of action pack, do or die mayhem. In this game, Serbia barely amped up their efforts (if they did at all) and the general attitude was that the game was over. One of the announcers even said "And for Serbia, who have to play Germany, this is a crushing loss." I was thinking "WTF, THERE'S 12 MINUTES LEFT!"
  9. Same story with me. I'm a natural cynic and I haven't enjoyed the soccer I've watched, but some of my friends told me about how absolutely spectacular the World Cup is, so I entered with an open mind. I gotta say I've been sorely disappointed so far. To me, enjoying sports is all about tension. The combination of the lack of scoring chances and the very strong possibility of a tie in each game pretty much eliminates all tension. The air horns are called vuvuzelas and they basically serve to make soccer fanatics 500% more obnoxious.
  10. Welcome to the board. You won't get abused too bad if you're not a douche about it. If you have any questions, just direct them toward ieatcrayonz.
  11. So through 7 games, we have scores of... 1-1 0-0 1-0 2-0 1-1 1-0 1-0 So many goose eggs...I only wish we had a *yawn* face available
  12. The 3 genres of GoBillsInDallas Would ya? Ummmmmmm ok..... White Trash, ______ style
  13. crayonz absolutely has to be on there...completely spoiled this board for lesser trolls
  14. This is a vapid and largely inaccurate overgeneralizaton of young people. Your parents' generation probably thought the same of your generation. I bet there hasn't been a single point in American history when adults weren't thinking "Oh God, what's becoming of our country...the youth are just terrible".
  15. Yeah, cause I'm sure, back in the good old days when America wasn't "pussified", all the high school kids were trying to sail around the world by themselves. Stupid modern age, where most children aren't allowed to sail around the world.
  16. Interesting concept for a drinking game, but stupid nonetheless. Here's my question...why is it played with a womanly drink like Smirnoff fuggin Ice? This article actually reminded me...a couple weeks ago, I was in a bar with some friends and the guys at the table next to us all started chugging Smirnoff Ices and chanting "ICES ICES ICES ICES". At the time I thought they were just being weird and fruity, but now I realize they must have been playing this dumb-ass game.
  17. This has nothing to do with liberals and everything to do with idiots.
  18. I'm rooting for Nigeria to beat Argentina because their deposed king sent me an email and promised to make me a millionaire.
  19. Ah yes, I think I read about this story in Terrible Parenting Magazine.
  20. Well, let's see. The police enforce the law, and adultery is against the law in New York State...soooo it seems like it IS the police's business.
  21. I don't see why people have a problem with her getting charged with adultery. After all, marriage is a legal union which stipulates both partners being faithful. I don't think that infidelity should go without legal consequences (though adultery is rarely so easy to prove as this). EDIT: In Michigan, they can put you away for life. http://web.archive.org/web/20070206173058/...COL04/701150333
  22. As far as I'm concerned, this is the best use of twitter so far. Who knew that you could use social networking for something positive instead of just stroking your own ego?
  23. They've also both dealt with drug addiction, which could explain a friendship.
  24. That's true. I guess when it comes to an issue that is pretty fundamental to Mr. John (he's a noted champion for the LGBT movement) I just assumed he wouldn't get along with Rush. Bad assumption I suppose, but I'm sure you can see where I'm coming from. I mean, would you expect Jesse Jackson to be buddy-buddy with a guy who wants to eliminate black suffrage?
  25. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1937058 "But how do I get rid of it?"
