  1. I was small in school, and loved dodgeball. We also had a brutal game--that the teachers loved watching--where a ball thrower would stand on top of the hill and throw a football or kickball to a group of kids below. Not only did you have to catch it in traffic but make it up to the top of the hill without being A) tackled by the kid on top of the hill or B) Being gang tackled by the 10 kids at the bottom. When you were tackled, everyone would pile on and it would all start over again. Skinned knees, bruises, and healthy entertainment for those who wanted to play. We're turning our kids into sissies.
  2. So the Nanny Staters continue their BS, this time a school in New Hampshire. They've banned dodgeball, as well as other "human target" games. Just one thing in a long line of things, including drawings of guns, Pop Tart guns, hugging and more. I've written about these types of school policies many times, including things like the drive in NY to ban youth football, and I still just don't understand why parents don't fight it.
  3. This story claims to have a top candidate. In retrospect, it makes total sense. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
  4. The lower my expectations, the lower my disappointment. ... This roster is so bad they couldn't even give us a video.
  5. OK, I'm determined to win this: Tom Brady has to retire someday. Right?™ Help us Doug Marrone, you're our only hope.™ Holy !@#$ing bat **** balls, how the !@#$ do we actually have so many !@#$ing fans?™
  6. OK, last ones...these were fun! Y U No draft quarterback in first round?™ Andy, Aaron? Whatever. Championship!™ The only team to be booed in two countries.™
  7. Whoomp! There it isn't.™ Hey, remember Jim Kelly? Those were the days.™ If you think we're bad, you should see our hotels.™ If JP Losman, Trent Edwards, Kelly Holcomb and Ryan Fitzpatrick were one quarterback, we would have found our guy.™ Boy I Love Losing...just enough games to not get us anywhere near the playoffs and winning just too many to not get a top draft pick.™
  8. Meh.™ We can totally beat Bama.™ Rebuilding. Until we rebuild again.™ At least we're not the Browns. Oh wait, they're better?™
  9. Looks like a mascot for a hotel. Trying to look modern and looks like something out of the 50s instead.
  10. Don't forget about Alan whatshisface. Man, this is depressing to think about bad the QB situation is.
  11. ...Not that there's anything wrong with that.
  12. Maybe this? http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/blog/mike-freeman/21946093/some-believe-atmosphere-is-safe-for-gay-nfl-player-to-come-out
  13. +2 That he knows what really went down with Shawne Merriman on the border.
  14. Kid shouldn't have kept on picking up his hat. Everyone knows you don't pick up Mark Duper's hat.
  15. The Toronto Bills will win it first.
  16. I agree with everything you said. It's borderline insanity for us to have not have drafted a QB in three years.
  17. More stoppage of plays. More questionable calls. More restrictions. He called that penalty, why not this one?...Impossible to enforce across the board. People who applaud this probably don't see the slippery slope that this is. I see no problem with a RB finishing a play off with his head, as many times there are multiple defenders. How can you not hit with your head? There will be some major rule change every single season until the game we love is like a Pro Bowl game.
  18. The safety zealots, and lawyers, will ruin are ruining this game. Seriously don't understand the fans here who applaud this nonsense.
  19. The difference between those two is that Walker is a blogger and Sando is a bonafide reporter. Even though I haven't paid ESPN anything, I feel jipped after reading that article.
  20. No problem with bringing him in to compete.
  21. I wonder if he'd fall for it twice, only with Tim Tebow's agent on the other end.
  22. Travaris Jackson, who wasn't good enough to even suit up last season, is, as of now, our starter. We will have zero continuity at the QB position. Let's not do too many moonwalks. I have to think this Deadspin report had a major to do with this. Yes, we all know Fitz is a backup. But Buddy basically saying that for the world to hear is a different story. Him staying after that basically means he admits he's only a backup. I wish him the best.
