Stand your ground defense has nothing to do with this case.

Can I get her number when you're through with her?

Missed it.

I'll have you know that Indiana Jones sported such a satchel, thank you very much.

I assume OP was being sarcastic, but for those who actually are concerned about this, if terrorists detonate an explosive device at 1 NFL game next year, and you go to 1 NFL game next year, there is less than a .4% chance you will be at that game (not including playoffs). That doesn't count for the fact that there will be 2430 baseball games played throughout the year as well (not including playoffs). And even if you're in the stadium when the bomb goes off, unless they're somehow able to wire the whole stadium to explode, the chances of you being injured are fairly small. In light of the numbers, I find myself unable to get worried about the situation. No matter how hard I try I just can't get worried.

Don't feel too bad, Gug. I myself once dabbled briefly in metrosexuality (not in Nam, of course). Several years ago, around the time boys started wearing their sister's jeans and using copious amounts of hair gel and discussing thread counts, my siblings decided that I hadn't acclimated to the new fashion trends in a timely manner and when visiting over christmas decided to have an intervention. Since they were paying I went along, and against my objections I acquiesced to their demands to dress me in pants from Express for [gay] Men. Like you, however, I had to draw a line in the sand; across this line YOU DO NOT! That line was not getting highlights in my hair or going to the tanning bed. My sister was really pissed that I thwarted their intervention plan, but at least I escaped with some of my pride still intact.

I rarely if ever blame the parents for acting ridiculous in these situations because anyone who just lost their child is entitled to act a little irrationally, but the lawyer who agreed to take the case should be shot (or at least disbarred).

I'll stick with the ambiguity. It's more poetic.

Only if they can afford the treatment. That would be unfair to those who can't.

Flutie played behind the same oline that was getting RJ destroyed and went from a sack every 4 +/- drop backs to a sack every 15+ drop backs. That comparison was between 2 guys on the same team. The reference to the Chargers line was just part of pointing out the entire offensive unit was devoid of talent, yet Flutie still led them to great improvements from their previous two seasons, and there was a drop off when Brees came in. Since RJ never played for the Chargers I don't see the inconsistency.

I agree with your second and third sentences, but I don't understand the first.

No offense Doc, but you're way off on this one. You sound like you're desperately clinging to your irrational hatred of Flutie. Go back & look over that Charger unit. That team absolutely sucked. The offensive line was a joke, and their #1 receiver was Curtis Conway (who?). Hell, Tomlinson only averaged something like 3.5 ypc behind that line, and IIRC the receiving corps led the league in drops that year. It was only Flutie's ability to improvise that kept them competitive that year. And as far as W's and L's, I agree with you to a point, but Flutie has a sizable sample with a consistent history of coming through in the clutch. I prefer a guy who plays ball control & pulls it out in the clutch to a guy who puts up numbers but loses. And stop using the "RJ was winning when he left the game" line. That was 1 game and if that pos had played even at a mediocre level the game should have been out of reach (I guarantee Flutie doesn't take that safety). The best thing about RJ is that he serves as a contrast to help people to see & appreciate what Flutie brought to the table. A part of me thinks the Bills organization (and half the fans for that matter) deserve the Flutie curse for not appreciating him and casting him aside like a used rubber.

That's awesome. You think they'd let me join? I was born in America.

265 HP under the hood. Don't doubt the Odyssey.

Diego Corrales v Jose Luis Castillo - the first fight. You can skip ahead to the 10th. Best round of boxing I've ever seen.

I mean, you can choose to focus on the negative, or you can acknowledge the silver lining which is that if Hernandez is guilty and is convicted it helps our chances of getting into the tournament. Am I wrong? And since he's not my relative, the value is considerably lower.

My 93 Nissan Sentra would max out, make an odd sound, and stop accellerating at around 117 My 92 Saturn SC2 maxed out around 120 My 95 Buick Lesabre eclipsed the 120 mark And I got an 07 Honda Odyssey over 120. 120+ In a mother!@#$in minivan. What up!?

You have no idea.

Patriots, dude.

I think you'd do well to pack your carpet bags and head back north. I imagine you'll find more people who are sympathetic to your ways.

+1 IIRC Stallworth wasn't even all that intoxicated & stopped rather than pulling a hit and run. But people are generally incapable of logical reasoning in these situations, want to crucify someone for the result (rather than the act) and will grasp on to any straw that will enable them to rationalize their emotionally driven feeling. His buddies got off. Unless they were later convicted of other crimes they are free.

What are you, the anti-Viagra?
