  1. Ye shall be in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated on the family when you are able to.
  2. A friend of mine is addicted to it; I tried it once and couldn't get into it. Part of the issue is my computer is not built for serious game play. I play a lot of Battlefield Heroes myself. Been on that for about 3 years (first-person/cartoony shooter).
  3. Yeah, but can it beat a Milk Steak? (a few words at the end are NSFW) http://vimeo.com/9900978
  4. All Fitz needs to do is speak to Quagmire about strengthening his arm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di7gz4cjMn4&feature=related
  5. To paraphrase a quote of his from the 'Blues Brothers', that man could turn goat p!$$ into gasoline. Rest In Peace, Duck.
  6. Nice job by kabnt2005 for sticking your neck out there to share the info before it happened.
  7. Life-long resident of central Illinois, living in Springfield, IL now.
  8. For those that aren't aware, the audio narration by Herbert Morrison commonly associated with the footage of the crash is played at a high speed, causing Morrison to sound high-pitched. The broadcast has been corrected and was first pkayed in 199 on WLS-AM out of Chicago. Here are a couple of references to the corrected broadcast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUVDmXvXcbk If you go about half-way down this page: WLS-AM You'll find a bit of information on this broadcast. As a child this event always fascinated me, so it was an interesting footnote to learn the initial audio was recorded slower than normal.
  9. ProFootballTalk @ProFootballTalk1mThe Bills have released CB Drayton Florence, per league source.
  10. My 6 1/2 said he liked the first show as well. I didn't get a chance to ask him more about it so maybe I'll sit down with him and watch it to see what he likes about it. Kind of an informal focus group of one.
  11. He's taking her to Lollapalooza later this summer based on a comment she made to him about enjoying lollipops.
  12. I don't know what to think of all this Draft speculation, so let's have a laugh or two until the picks are made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIrhVo1WA78
  13. All these moves have me asking, "When will it end?" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLv7viCMGo8
  14. I'm interested in attending if we decide to come to the game. Wife and I are discussing the cost of a trip from here to Buffalo or to take tickets to the Indy game in November, which is a 3.5hr drive for us. We are crunching numbers in our budget, as we're planning a family vacation back to Florida next January.
  15. Another strike against Burfict..... <br class="Apple-interchange-newline">Jay Glazer ‏ @JayGlazer (Twitter acct) CloseNFL teams were informed this week of 2 more players of note who have flunked drug tests: ASU LB Vontaze Burfict and Va Tech CB JayRon Hosley
  16. The schedule has contacted Bobby Petrino's mistress and is bringing her in to see the town.
  17. Already being discussed at the top of the page: Pinned to the top.
  18. Charean Williams @NFLCharean23mJim Nantz announced on golf this afternoon that the NFL schedule will be announced Tuesday, which is what we all thought. (This was retweeted by Adam Schefter) Can't wait for the home opener thanks to my NCAA Tourney win: My link
  19. My son saw a commercial for the app and he wants me to download it so he can play it. It shows a green race car, if I recall correctly. Congratulations!
  20. Kentucky won so I win, too! If I'm dreaming, please don't wake me up! Cannot believe I've won tickets to the home opener this year. GO BILLS!
  21. (LAMP) I'm competing in David Nelson's Bracket Challenge over at ESPN. He's awarding prizes to the top-three: 3rd- Autographed jersey 2nd- $100 Gift Card to Dick's Sporting Goods 1st- Pair of tickets to this year's home opener. I'm sitting 3rd with a prediction of Kentucky beating Kansas Monday night; first and second have Kansas winning the game. So, I'm all-or-nothing on winning this thing (no one can jump over me but I'll fall far in the standings if Kansas wins). I want to win those home opener tickets so bad. Plus, my birthday is in September (surely the home opener will fall in Sept.) so it would be extra sweet! So, if you have no other rooting interest for Monday's National Championship game, consider rooting for me to win those tickets from David so I can make a return trip to Buffalo. Go Wildcats!
