Yup, great. Manning, a sure-fire HOF quarterback with two Super Bowl appearances and one championship ring. I guess you missed the part where I said those type of players have at least a sliver of justification for acting out of frustration. Cutler isn't on the level where he can treat people like garbage and have it go down the drain the next day. And don't even compare the type of leader and teammate Peyton Manning is to Cutler. That's not a battle you will win.
You missed your own part when you said "wouldn't (and haven't)". Absolutes shouldn't be used in arguments.

Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees wouldn't (and haven't) scream at a player and shove him out of the way like Cutler did. You aren't a good leader because you scream at someone out of frustration. And, even if they did , those guys all have Super Bowl rings and tons of personal achievements to back up their bark. What does Cutler have?
I guess I'm still waiting for someone to tell me how or why Cutler is head and shoulders better than Fitz. Aside from ESPN hype and perception and how far he can throw a football.
For your viewing pleasure of Peyton Manning chewing out Jeff Saturday.

This may not be the best advice but this is what I did 3 years ago when I graduated. Do you have a monsters.com profile? dice.com? Linkedin profile? You need to get your name out there. When I graduated in 2009, economy wasn't so great, I literally went on those websites everyday and applied to jobs fitting my expertise from school. Job searching is frustrating, but takes persistence. Don't ever stop applying to jobs even after you hear back and have interviews secured. Having multiple interviews gives you the chance to leverage your offers.

Dalton was the most true "Bond" to the novels.
Personally I loved the Living Daylights and License to Kill. He was a pretty good Bond, just had a bad rap because of his appearance. He just looked like a criminal. After Golden Eye, Pierce didnt make a good Bond movie.

I recently finished a bottle of Laphroaig. I'm not a big drinker but I do go through 1-2 bottles of single malt/year. Laphroaig is by far the 'peatiest' I've ever had. It took a little getting used to, but very enjoyable to me.
I second this. I love laphroig. Probably my favorite single malt whiskey. Real nice smokey taste and goes down fairly easy.

Youboty was very good while he was healthy. he was a very good tackler and was always near the ball to make a play. its unfortunate injuries stopped him from exceling with the bills. if he can stay healthy, i dont see why he cant be a starting CB in the league.

Parcells last QB drafted was Chad Henne. Chad Henne is a joke.
-
He's one of the best passers in college football. Great accuracy, arm, and touch, and seems to be able to read defenses really well.
What? I'm a huge Michigan fan and I couldn't disagree more. Anything behind the line of scrimmage, or within 10 yards is a good pass with great velocity. Almost anything past 10 yards is overthrown by 5 yards. Terrible accuracy.

No one mentioned Philip Rivers as a potential MVP candidate? If he manages to will his injured team into the playoffs by winning the AFC West I see no reason why he shouldn't be in the MVP race.

They're letting this guy take over for the miami dolphins? I am quivering in my boots.

not.

Who the hell is this shawn anderson character you speak of?

I am a Big Ten fan. Michigan fan actually. And I will say I would not draft a single quarterback from this conference. Maybe if Tate Forcier was 6'4 and didnt play for Rich Rodriguez I would say he might be a decent quarterback. But other than that, every Big Ten quarterback is not NFL caliber. Not Pryor. not Stanzi. Not Ben Chapel. Nobody.
I've seen about a handful of Andrew Luck, and if he were to come out for the draft this year, he would hands down be the player I would draft. I'm quite scared of all the quarterbacks in this years draft. I don't think any of them other than Andrew Luck are franchise quarterbacks.
-
Not to mention the amount of times they put John Connor in motion so that Sanchez could read coverage before the play even started. Pretty good implementation.
-
If Andrew Luck isn't coming out to this draft, I'm all for drafting a LT and then going after Andrew Luck the year after to solidify a line for him to play with. I think Andrew Luck is worth the wait.
-
Being a big Big Ten Conference fan, I've watched Ricki Stanzi play. An athletic quarterback who is injury prone as well as mistake prone. In fact he is very mistake prone, and generally Iowa wins when he minimizes his mistakes. No quarterback in the big ten is worth a look at the professional level in my opinion.

Yeah I expect Gailey to give Roscoe a Welker type role. and if it never pans out I will not hesitate to boot my one and only Bills player.

Format-
QB- Carson Palmer
RB- Steven Jackson
RB- Jonathan Stewart
WR- Larry Fitzgerald
WR- Steve Smith (NYG)
WR/RB- Marion Barber
WR/TE- Antonio Gates
K- Robbie Gould
D- Bengals
Backups:
QB- Chad Henne
RB- Steve Slayton
RB- LaDainian Tomlinson
RB- Leon Washington
WR- Braylon Edwards
WR- Roscoe Parrish
WR- Mike Thomas
WR- Laurent Robinson
TE- Jermaine Gresham
I figure if I really need another TE/K/D I'll cut someone like Robinson if he doesnt step up as the #1 WR in St. Louis, or Leon Washington if he doesnt get a big enough role in the offense.
What do you guys think?
-
Who the hell is D. Harris? was he flying under the radar the whole time? I dont even recall his name in training camp reports.
-
I personally do not think that is a bad idea if its a 3rd rounder. then move eric wood to center and have Logan play RG or LG if they decide to move Levitre.
-
I read how the run blocking has been excellent, and I'm not trying to be a jerk or pee on our running game...But is it possible at all that our run game is excellent because our run defense still sucks like last year? Just curious on opinions.
-
what is the deal between him and ricky sapp? they are exchanging some words there.
-
How is this girl missing since March and then all of a sudden she texts her uncle after this? I don't think this is going to stick at all.
Exactly what I was thinking. Not saying he's innocent. I'm saying the story is fishy.

He's a whiney, pretentious a-hole, I can't stand him.
But he sure knows his hoops and has a gift for recruiting. Good for him, he earned it this year.
I love when windbags like Bob Knight criticize him for playing zone, like he's cheating or something. When that Syracuse zone is clicking and fluid, it looks like a spider web and is fun to watch. Most coaches that criticize zone don't know how to design a good one. Boeheim's ability to succeed with different players in that defense year after year is a testament to his ability as a coach.

Bobby Knight and Jim Boeheim explain the 2-3 zone. If someone is always dissing the zone its Doug Goettlieb. I don't know why he has a job on espn.

To add to the excitement.

Nothing. Like I said in my post. The video was for your viewing pleasure. The players are competitive and they want to win. Out bursts are bound to happen to even the greats of Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady.
