  1. A deal has been "in the works" for months now.
  2. Cable bills and being subjected to constant commercials doesn't seem like "free" to me. Networks pay buckets of money to the NFL for the "privilege" to broadcast the games, money they get from cable subscribers (you know, US), and advertisers (who make THEIR money from you guessed it, US). I think I paid something like $11.50 for a "tallboy" can of beer (which I think is 16 ounces) at the game in Toronto. I forget the exact price but I know it was in excess of $10.
  3. A robot is just a machine given direction by an AI or scripted program. Are you claiming there was an actual physical aspect of Watson that was manually pressing the buzzer button? Seems to me like it was just triggering the buzzer remotely via ITS PROGRAMMING. Besides, "robot" is a general term that can be loosely applied to any sort of automated machine. You can say something is a robot, but you can't say "No that isn't an AI" BECAUSE its a robot...
  4. 2nd straight up, maybe toss in that conditional pick we got in the Lynch deal.
  5. I'd be happy with giving a third for him if we don't get Locker in the second.
  6. Do you realize you're replying to a post that is weeks old? I'm sure he's been made aware of it by now.
  7. I think you guys are confusing the -type- of penalty from the UNC game. The announcers detailed why/how one type of penalty would have lead to a clock runoff and another wouldn't.
  8. On top of the hype, that catch would have given him a TD and nice chunk of yardage to add to his totals for Pro Bowl consideration.
  9. You're looking at it the wrong way. -A- team. They'll happily support -A- team, they're just not that crazy about the second-hand rental team they are being -told- to support. They'll support a permanent team of their OWN. Any expert can tell you the NFL is big in Southern Ontario.
  10. 1. I assume the other "entry" for Denver was an old one, because I don't see why they would be talking about Orton when Tebow had just started. 2. Speaking of (not) noticing things, I didn't say the idiot was the person noticing the error, I was implying someone was an idiot for NOT noticing that it was an obvious error. The poster ripped the guy in the article for not knowing what team Tebow played for when that was clearly not the case.
  11. And it takes a special kind of moron to not realize it was just an editing error that resulted in Denver's caption being listed in Buffalo's slot, which was right above it. What did Denver's caption read before they corrected it?
  12. Pardon my ignorance but what loophole are we talking about?
  13. They obviously wouldn't just randomly put two last place teams together on primetime. They would at least make it a divisional matchup, or against a playoff team from the previous year. But I do find it absolutely ridiculous that we get stuck in Sun-1pm for the entire season when there's enough "primetime" games for every team to be put up three times each. They couldn't throw us a single Sunday night game while (I think it is) the Jets get like three Monday night games? If they want to save Mondays for the big marquee matchups then fine, but at least let each team have one or two evening games on Sundays. I don't really care about Thursdays...
  14. They're still here, still saying he can't play. Why do people make these threads if they don't know what they're talking about?
  15. They'll trot the old man out for a snap to hand off the ball and continue the streak of "starts". He wants that 300.
  16. "I'm sorry for DOING IT ON PURPOSE" is usually a pretty clear sign of guilt to me. Would you advise he lie about something that blatant and make the punishment worse for it? Then he should have been trying to get OUT of the way, not lean into him. And I've seen people "brace for impact", that's not how you do it. He was extending his knee OUTWARD into the player. Are you trolling or are you really that dumb?
  17. And my cousin's best friend's hairdresser says it was likely just his finger itself getting caught on the ladder. He may have realized after "hey, that's my ring finger" and blamed it on the ring for dramatic effect. Anyways, the one in a billion chance of it actually happening isn't good enough odds to knock him for wearing it on the field. There's probably just as good odds of it -protecting- his finger from a minor injury as it is of causing one.
  18. Sam Bradford and the Rams have a losing record and are in the bottom half of the league in offense. Matt Stafford isn't looking at a championship ring with the Lions anytime soon. Heck even golden boy Sanchez was the league's worst rated starter last year as they rode their running game and pass D through an easy finishing schedule. And they're still bottom third of the league in passing this year. I'm not holding my breath on getting that top 5 pick to carry us to the Super Bowl.
  19. I would love to see Sully try to talk down a win over the Pats. He already has an excuse if we beat the Jets, they're a "team on the decline".
  20. The comments section in that is rich. There's the typical Jets fan with a stupid handle "hooterdawg" trying to defend the action as "self defense", and the squadron of sanctimonious Pats fans preaching about how superior the Pats are because they wouldn't pull crap like that. Ya, you'll just videotape practices from the stands and play dirty ON the field rather than on the sidelines.
