I'll concede that I'm not someone who followed the 'Canes. I remember the hype surrounding McGahee's sophomore season. Regardless of how dominating the team was, you're talking about a 1700+ yard season with 28 rushing touchdowns. Suggesting that he should have supplanted Portis as a freshman in 2000... by that logic, Barry Sanders underachieved as well. Before the knee injury he was projected as a top 5 pick, regardless of whether his 40 was 4.28 or 4.45. Looking at the rushing stats on this website, http://www.totalfootballstats.com/RushingLeaders_Career.asp?id=98 , assuming they're accurate, suggests you're significantly underselling McGahee, especially when you adjust for games played. His yards per carry, TDs, and yds per game dwarf Portis and Gore, and are on par with Edgerrin James.

He may be worried about his own safety if he rented the car for a now deceased shady friend/acquaintance.

If this is a duplicate of the rookies at WWZ thread, it's a dead heat.

Kolb. He is the Alex Smith to EJM's Kaep. Even if he is able to resurrect his career, he will set the bar low enough for the QB of the future to exceed it when he's ready. He may even surprise us and put us in a position to win a few games in the process.

Thanks, NoSaint. It's always inspiring to see human spirit triumph over tragic circumstances.

Racial insensitivity results from placing a value judgement on fact. This is hardly racially insensitive. The truth is, hockey is an expensive sport that most inner city, and thereby disproportionately minority, children don't have access to. Even the poorest schools can usually afford baseball and football equipment and facilities, whereas hockey programs are a bit sparse by comparison.

Ma'am? Or am I missing something? http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mam

Donahoe rolled the dice and lost... kinda. At 230 lbs and running a sub 4.3 40 prior to the knee injury, if McGahee had recovered that top gear, it would have been a gamble that paid off. He never did, and despite that, he went on to have a pretty good career. I didn't have a problem with Donahoe drafting a high risk, high reward player like that. We had bigger needs, but no one drafted at that position in the first round had more potential than McGahee. Personally, I soured on the pick after he turned out to be a loud-mouthed ingrate. I don't often feel that players owe an organization a debt of gratitude, but he did, and his boorish behavior on his way out of town spoke volumes about him as a person.

I would agree with Chandler being one of the more underrated players on the team. The offense suffered when he was injured. IMO, if the draft is any indication, Chandler might be a fish out of water in this pending offensive scheme, though. Unless they value him as a reliable checkdown option, I feel drafting Gragg and shifting Dickerson around suggest they're looking to generate more vertical production out of the position.

This is meant to look like an automated response. This topic is being discussed in a locked thread where someone started a baseless rumor that Chris Berman was on fire. Please consider using the search function next time, and consulting with Pat Moran about how to reference your children's well being to add credence to your claims instead of facts. Apology accepted. Carry on.

Regardless of another 15 yards, my point is that it was an anomaly. In the 17 games he's had significant playing time in, he's broken 200 yards passing 5 times, that includes his two 300 yard games. Two of those 200+ yard passing games were a 202 yard game and a 207 yard game.

A deal for the wife beating parole violator that every indication was that she was in the process of signing off on, and would have were it not for the butt slapping buffoon, correct? I doubt she would have been complimenting the wife beating parole violator's attorney on a job well done if she didn't intend on approving the deal before the butt slapping buffoon stepped in and wrecked it. The point being, it was the butt slapping that she was reacting to, and you know it. Arguing anything else is disingenuous.

Paid informant/camp fodder

She had just essentially let the parole violating woman beater go. Seems like you don't understand what got him the extra 30 days.

Factor in the 80 yards on that one 5 yard pass with 75 YAC in overtime and that production is essentially what you would hope to get on average from your QB, not what you would laude him for for producing one time. You need only look at the QB play for the Bills since 2003 to see similar statistical anomalies. Ryan Fitzpatrick once threw for 370 yards in a win against New England. Trent Edwards was 10-6 as a starter upon entering the league. JP Losman and Kelly Holcomb produced a winning season and nearly guided the Bills to the playoffs in 2004. Given enough time, none of them passed the sniff test. Much like Tebow, when you look at their body of work as a whole and not based on the anomalous aspects, they sucked the majority of the time they were on the field.

IMO, that video also shows a judge working herself up to the level of indignation needed to reject that plea deal. Johnson is an idiot, and nothing is going to change that. Prisons are overcrowded and expensive, and the judge's reaction to this is not what you should expect from a person in her position. If she wanted to make a point, she could have fined the hell out of him. You could argue that it wouldn't mean a thing to Johnson, and you would likely be right, but it would gain the courtroom's attention, save face for the judge if that was really what was needed, and been in the best interest of the county. Instead she looks petty and vindictive, and manages to put a butt slapping buffoon away for 30 days at a cost to the taxpayers.

People also won't like this... Mike Mularkey was the most successful Bills coach in the last 13 years.

Jim Boeheim? You're crazy. He doesn't look anything like him.

I thought that was the incumbent QB for the Jets... my bad, that's dirty Sanchez.

Of all the people you could have put in the dress to serve you beer, you thought Chuck Norris would be the most appealing? You went with humiliation over sex appeal? YOU stay thirsty, my friend.

Given that he hasn't done a thing yet, he reminds me of every other coach in the modern technological age that has yet to coach a down for their team... full of promise and over analyzed. I'm as hopeful as the next guy about Marrone, and I like the direction things are headed in the offseason, but c'mon. I think I'll start a thread about how the smell of his flatulence inspires confidence in the masses.

Maybe the OP could acquire the rights to eball's former avatar to go with it.
