  1. Pacman Will not be joining Blue Bombers In a surprising about face, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have announced that Adam 'Pacman' Jones will not be joining the team.

  3. The Perfect Human Cool story, his twelve points ones to ponder. DEAN KARNAZES WAS SLOBBERING DRUNK. IT WAS HIS 30TH BIRTHDAY, and he'd started with beer and moved on to tequila shots at a bar near his home in San Francisco. Now, after midnight, an attractive young woman – not his wife – was hitting on him. This was not the life he'd imagined for himself. He was a corporate hack desperately running the rat race. The company had just bought him a new Lexus. He wanted to vomit. Karnazes resisted the urge and, instead, slipped out the bar's back door and walked the few blocks to his house. On the back porch, he found an old pair of sneakers. He stripped down to his T-shirt and underwear, laced up the shoes, and started running. It seemed like a good idea at the time. He sobered up in Daly City, about 15 miles south. It was nearly four in the morning. The air was cool, slightly damp from the fog, and Karnazes was in a residential neighborhood, burping tequila, with no pants on. He felt ridiculous, but it brought a smile to his face. He hadn't had this much fun in a long time. So he decided to keep running.When the sun came up, Karnazes was trotting south along Route 1, heading toward Santa Cruz. He had covered 30 miles. In the process, he'd had a blinding realization: There were untapped reservoirs within him. It was like a religious conversion. He had been born again as a long-distance runner. More than anything else now, he wanted to find out how far he could go. But at that exact moment, what he really needed to do was stop. He called his wife from a pay phone, and an hour later she found him in the parking lot of a 7-Eleven. He passed out in the car on the way home. That was August 1992. Over the next 14 years, Karnazes challenged almost every known endurance running limit. He covered 350 miles without sleeping. (It took more than three days.) He ran the first and only marathon to the South Pole (finishing second), and a few months ago, at age 44, he completed 50 marathons in 50 consecutive days, one in each of the 50 states. (The last one was in New York City. After that, he decided to run home to San Francisco.) Karnazes' transformation from a tequila-sodden party animal into an international symbol of human achievement is as educational as it is inspirational. Here's his advice for pushing athletic performance from the unthinkable to the untouchable.
  4. goes to show with sausages if there is to much fat they shrink to nothing....
  5. Given what happens these day with losing seasons of 7 - 9 God only help Bills nation if team were to fall to the worst of the worst , these days it would be scorched earth, such fighting and mayhem would ensue that the world has never seen. The carnage would be indescribable. Would not get to draft day for many.
  6. Enjoy Sumatra as well. Grind fresh, use french press to brew. Interesting the variables in making a good cup of coffee. Love the smell of the local shop where they roast and sell the beans. Big large roaster in middle of room.
  7. Police should have instructed all to just point and laugh, he would have put his clothes back on.
  8. The transit authority when they were young and hungry 1968, very underrated guitar...
  9. my goodness he may just end up with a pulled groin.....
  10. Slumdog Millionaire Father Arrested THE poverty-stricken father of Slumdog Millionaire child star Rubina Ali plans to become a millionaire himself-by SELLING his nine-year-old daughter. In a bid to escape India's real-life slums, Rafiq Qureshi put angel-faced darling of the Oscars Rubina up for adoption, demanding millions of rupees worth £200,000. As he offered the shocking deal to the News of the World's undercover fake sheik this week, Rafiq declared: "I have to consider what's best for me, my family and Rubina's future." -scary, unfortunate, sad...... yikes
  11. Attend Church regularly. Twice on Sunday once on Wednesday evening. Church and family come well before entertainment. Attend Church on Sunday, have dinner with family , then providing all is clear follow the Bills. Consider myself a follower of the Bills not a fanatic in the terms of what a "fan" is called these days. Never have like the term of "fan" . To me its condescending.
  12. Curious if many listen to Brad Riter instead of wgr programming?
  13. encouraging to hear, perhaps a 87 year old guy does have some hope...
  14. Superbowl Online NBC is working hard to make it as difficult as possible for you to watch the Olympics online, even when its own experience showed that online viewers didn't cannibalize TV viewers -- in fact the opposite happened. People who watched online watched more TV. So why are they trying to make it so hard to watch online? Meanwhile, CBS, which had tremendous success webcasting the NCAA's March Madness basketball tournament is now working to see if it can get the permission to broadcast the Super Bowl online as well (thanks to MattP for sending this in), knowing that it will likely bring in a larger audience, and increase the opportunities for everyone.
  15. take a look at these, any similar
  16. Another Boston Marathon. This year some 26000+ are participating. Have you ever entered this Marathon, plan to work out one day to achieve this, or at least dream of doing so? Once upon a time, did run 10 k five times a week, ran in a few marathons and finished but never Boston. Am old now but dream one day of getting in shape and doing this. Would be a very cool achievement.
  17. whew, seen you responding to my post and thought you would be coming after me.... I may be new around here , but know of your reputation.
  18. With the trade of Peters and changes in personal, the offensive line will be a work in progress this coming season. For many Edwards has a target on his back that this coming season is /was to be a make it or break it year for him. People have grown weary if being patient. Will you give Trent Edwards some slack this coming season, or he in spite of offensive line must rise above problems and find ways to succeed. In my opinion , I don't see how he can, believe the changes put his development back a year at least. Worse yet potentially ruin his career.
  19. You are correct. But adding 35% to current prices would put Bills average at $70 which would be based on 2008 prices even with San Francisco at 14 th in league or in middle. The 28th team Seattle averaged at $61.25
  20. thank you for your response, my question was not to be wise ,
