I'm thankful mine aren't naturally hairy. How do you put a razorblade to your balls?
I trim.
This thread is going to get very gay soon, so I expect Topm and Darin to join any second.

He's a reserve center and one of three brothers on the RU team.
He's still in the ICU in Cinci after developing what I believe (that's what I'm hearing) an infection of the heart.
I'm not one to normally go around asking for prayers or anything, but this is a really good kid.

That is a very naive approach you are taking. Like I said, he will have the opportunity to turn the Miami job down. We'll see what he does. Of course he's going to tell everyone right now that he's not going anywhere. But there was a very real possibility of his team going undefeated this year and being ranked no higher than 5th. No national title. Do you think that would ever possibly happen at Miami?
Roy Williams turned down the UNC hoops job once and then took it several years later, after saying Kansas was his place and he wasn't leaving.
Schiano says he loves Rutgers. College coaches will act like they are in it for the kids and for the university, and they'll say the right thing, but don't believe for a second that they are concerned about anybody ahead of themselves. Because that university that they love so much will fire them without a second thought after 3 or 4 down years. If Texas or USC go 5-7, 6-6, 5-7 over the next three years, do you think Mack Brown or Pete Carroll will still have jobs? Nope. Look at Coker.
This is going to sound so cliche, but it's a Jersey thing.
I work for the athletic department. He's not going anywhere.

In-season, they always say that. He's a Jersey guy, I know that too. However, he is in position to demand big-time money from a program that is among the elite of NCAA Football. He has roots in Miami, is well-thought of by high school coaches in Florida, and has a recruiting base in the state already. He is young, energetic, and brings a brashness and enthusiasm that is definitely missing in Miami with Larry Coker.
We will see. Just because he says he's not interested in a job that isn't even open yet doesn't mean anything. He'll definitely have the opportunity to turn it down. If he does, good for him. If he takes it, good for him.
He has stated numerous times he has no interest. He just signed a 7 year deal, and word has it RU is already adding more money to it.
His wife does not want to move again (which she has stated publicly), and Schiano already turned down the Miami job before he left for RU.
Also, a recruit who I am not going to mention stated he asked GS if he were leaving, Schiano told him absolutely not, that he's here to stay and RU can win a NC. One thing about GS is, is that he's brutally honest, and would not lie to a kid.

I've been just the opposite lately. The NFL has been REALLY hard to take. Parity is good, but you can't figure the league out. I've been feeling this way for three or four years now. Sullivan actually summed it up fairly nicely in today's Buffalo News.
Some of the highlights:
So I woke up here Monday morning, groggy and disoriented, wondering if I had only dreamed that Peerless Price made a big play, and asking myself, "What the heck are we to make of this Bills team, 10 games into the season?"
Then I skimmed the standings and realized that all over the league, people are asking the same question. Is this football team good, bad or average? Is it a budding contender or a maddening tease, just another inconsistent team in the jumble of mediocrity that is today's NFL?
After Sunday's action, there were 17 teams within a game of .500 - that is, with four to six victories. That's more than half the league. It includes the teams that played in last year's Super Bowl, Seattle and Pittsburgh. Cincinnati is 5-5. I almost fell off the chair when I saw that San Francisco is 5-5, too.
17 teams within 1 game of .500? That's crazy. In my opinion, every team in the NFL sucks, and the trick is figuring out who is going to suck less that Sunday. The very average Pittsburgh Steelers put four good games together and won the Super Bowl last year as the final team to qualify from their conference.
I know, that's why a playoff needs to take place in college, I agree. But there's something about the pagentry and excitement of all college football that I don't feel for any NFL game outside of the Bills. I find myself watching a lot more college ball than pro ball.
I agree 100%.

Bypassing the Cobalt debate - for the moment -
...An Impala SS with the 305 hp V-8 would mark you as a Man Among Georgians!
But for something sporty and relatively inexpensive - have you considered Hyundai's Tiburon? The GT V-6 version has good scoot and nice torque. Miniscule back seat, true, but it is a hatchback with good luggage space (14.8 cu. ft.), and much more with the rear seat folded. It has side airbags, 4-wheel discs w/ABS, all the power stuff including heated side mirrors (a big plus IMO).
The automatic is a 4-speed, but with manual shift capability. A 5 speed manual is standard. And Hyundai's generous 5/60,000 total vehicle warranty, and their 10/100,000 powertrain coverage. Unless there is war on the Korean peninsula...
They usually sell for at least 2K off of list.
A downside is the wide, R-rated 215/45R-17 tires. Fine for dry, but questionable for heavy rain and snow. But Tire Rack likely sells a 4 tire/wheel package of some inclement-weather skins with decent dry and wet performance for about $500...and with two sets, you will get a lot of miles before replacement.
The Tiburon is such a chicks car (I know, insert Fit joke here).

I got "approved" from some local bank for 3.9% over 60 months. When I called to verify it, I wasn't actually approved (grrrr!). My next lowest one was 6.9% (word of advice...stay away from Capital One!)
On the Lending Tree sheet however, it said I was approved. I brought that in, and knowing they wouldn't verify it, threatened to go with that bank unless they beat it.
They did.

Anyone aware of a guy named Domenic Natale?
He is a QB, and transferred to Rutgers. he had to sit out this year, and has three years left of eligibility. For what I've heard/briefly seen in practice, this kid has a great arm and is accurate.
Considering Mike Teel sucks, we need a QB. Any news/info would be greatly appreciated.

Iit's actually a good thing that when a team beats us now, they feel the need to rush the field. That says a lot for RU.
The thing that pisses me off is, that we're so much better than Cinci. We came out cocky and flat, which is never a good blend. I would have rather lost to Louisville or WV.

You're, not your.
Did you just sin by calling me an ass?
