The Pack is pretty reliable at home in December - especially against warm weather teams! The Pack will pull it out; count on it!

Something tells me this thread will get a retarded number of replies all saying absolutely nothing except for "They're in my prayers" or something equally meaningless.

I think Depp is kind of going for a Michael Jackson type approach to the Wonka character, so observations that he might've looked a bit flamboyant aren't off target.

That's what I meant. Notice I didn't say he worked on the flick. But his displeasure over the first was a driving force behind Burton's vision and his idea to stick true to the source material.

Dahl was big in the making of this movie. That's a big reason why it was made in the first place - Dahl wanted a movie that was truer to the spirit of the book. He didn't like how the first one was a kids musical and he believed that it should have been a bit creepier.

You would've saved yourself a lot of time if you had read for context. If you'd done that, you'd know that I was simply correcting the poster above me in the post that you quoted. He sarcastically said that EA doing this is "the democratic way", which makes no sense since democracy has little to do with the economy. I corrected him by saying it would be the capitalistic way, not the democratic way - again, all sarcastically, since the concept of capitalism is being perverted here. Understanding the word "irony" would help. OBVIOUSLY, I'm not happy with this news. Again, it's basic economics - less competiton means inferior product. I'm not sure how you thought that's what I was saying, but I wasn't.

I don't think I'd do it, even for a 1st rounder. Although the angry mob on the board has begun the "kill Travis" chant, everyone seems to have conveniantly forgotten that this guy was the best player on the team up until this year. Anyone remember last year? Getting 1300 yards after missing a game or two and playing the whole year on a broken leg and bruised ribs? You think Antowain Smith was something posessed when we played him twice a year? Imagine Travis Henry. No, he needs to go outside the division and outside of the conference if possible.

What is wrong with you? How in the world can you think we are in ANY position to bash Bengals fans? When's the last time we made the playoffs? What's our record? This week's game isn't a cakewalk, buddy. This is the playoffs. The Bengals are a good team and all you're doing is prodding the bear. Jeezus. Go play in traffic.

I really don't mind what we get (I think we could certainly get a 2nd or 3rd out of him) as long as we don't trade him to the Dolphins.

That doesn't make sense. It's the capitalistic way, but democracy has nothing to do with it. Did you drop out after fourth grade?

I love Pat, too, but I don't think TD will try very hard to resign him with Ron Edwards beginning to emerge.

Good point. This is the biggest game of the season. We're going to learn a few important things about this team next Sunday. - How Mularkey handles a game with real pressure. On the road. - How the "new and improved" Bledsoe handles real pressure. On the road. Over the past three years, this team has always come up small when we needed it most. The past few weeks, though, this team has started to show some resilience - something the Bills of old were known for. THIS IS THE PLAYOFFS.

Since when? 8-8 isn't a losing season, but it isn't a winning season, either.

As I recall, weren't they 8-8 last season? This is the first time in a long time that they could potentially have a winning season.

You do know that if the Jets and Bills both go 10-6, then we have the tie breaker, right? So they don't need to lose them all. Just two of three. See the original post of this thread.

I just thought it was funny how many times Thurman's Helmet can contradict himself not only in one thread, but also in one post. It's also hilarious how he seems to believe that because his favorite team is winning, he has this all-knowing insight about the NFL now.

You forgot the most important game next week! Buffalo @ Cincinnati. If we lose, those games are irrelevent. And this week's game is NOT a given.

Hahahahahaha. You like emo. Hahahahaha. Sorry, I almost completely missed what you said because of your embarassingly big signature. Oh, and the Pats will still be a force with or without Weis, I reckon. Pittsburgh has two brand new coordinators this season - how's that working out for them?

So was slavery. What's your point?

The worst thing about Lennon's death is that ever since Yoko Ono has been whoring out his properties at every Christmas season.

Are you kidding? You can point to Levy and Belichick, but there are tons of examples where coaches are recycled just because people are familiar with them. Look at all of the people on here who were crying for Jim Fassel, for chrissakes. If I understand you correctly, KD, you're saying that those that are recycled are so because they are the smartest ones out there? They're the best coaches? You're saying there are only 3 or so men in the nation that qualify as "smart enough" to be NFL head coaches? Well, gee golly, KD, then all white people must be genetically superior to the other races since we're just so gosh darn smart and can dominate a field like that. Because OBVIOUSLY the reason white men dominate the field is because they MUST be smarter than anyone else out there. I bet. You know why the Buffalo Bills or the Kansas City Chiefs or whomever won't hire a black coach? LOOK AT THEIR OWNERS. These are older fellas, brought up in a different time. You don't think they might be just a LIIIIITTLE discriminating? Ridiculous. It's just mind boggling to see that some people can never escape a 3rd grade mentality. Others gain a broader worldview and a bit more understanding of the sociological issues we face.

Hey, me too. Check out Sylvania Diner some time - near the Alexis-Monroe split. Tons of Bills stuff all about the place.

Toledo Bill, where about in the Glass City are you? I live around Toledo, too; it's nice to see another on TBD!

I hate to nit pick, I really do (and I'm not picking on you, John, you're not the only one that does this) ... But it's McGahee. M-c-G-a-h-e-e. Not MaGahee or MaGehee or magehee. Willis McGahee. McGahee. McGahee. Anyway, I hope McGahee gets 100 yards or more.

Don't root for Miami then. Root for Denver to lose. There! Problem solved.
