  1. Trent was never right after he took that shot to the head (was it against KC?) Too bad, he looked like a mid-round steal there for a little while.
  2. I don't want to hijack the entire thread, but as a writer I can tell you that you cannot, regardless of whether or not you credit the author, copy and paste an entire piece. In this case it is especially egregious because it is from a paid section of the ESPN site - meaning they don't even give it away for free. Normally, you want to post a paragraph or two from the piece along with a link back to the original source. In this case, that would be moot because only someone with ESPN Insider would be able to open it anyway. Okay, enough of me on the soapbox, I now return you to your normally scheduled 2013 draft thread.
  3. That's from ESPN Insider - uncool to post the entire copyrighted piece. Just sayin'
  4. The Howard Stern Show recently replayed an interview he did in 2002 after his book came out. He claimed to have a genius IQ and to have bagged a lot of girls off of his Beaver fame. Made a lot of money in the stock market. Seemed like a nice guy. RIP
  5. Sometime soon go have a Steak and Cheese Sub from Mariposa's on Military Road in the Falls. Your mouth will want to spoon with you afterward.
  6. Loved this from the comment section of the article: His nickname, forevermore, shall be Dowtin Abbey.
  7. R.I.P. Jonathan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XynxTU8ovZ8
  8. Wonder what he graded Marino at? I also don't think Jimbo was ever 6'3" - that's a generous measurement.
  9. Agree wholeheartedly. I thought that Luck made the wrong decision by coming back for his senior year when he was going to be the 1st overall pick as a junior. It worked out for him, but it was a multi-million dollar risk. yes, I know these guys get huge insurance contracts to protect them against a career-threatening injury in college, but that wouldn't heal the pain of missing out on getting selected #1 overall and getting to be the new face of a floundering franchise.
  10. The question you have to ask yourself is: Is the juice worth the squeeze?
  11. I know Joe is originally from the Philly area, so I guess Long Island is much closer to home. It's a big loss for NU. Joe's teams have often been among the top class of the MAAC. I live in Lewiston and have ran into him a number of times around town. A truly nice guy who has been a great asset to the community.
  12. I guess it's not until they reach the mighty mite division that they're taught to fight the guys on the OTHER team.
  13. It's actually a Bob DiCesare column. Interesting though, wonder if Golisano is really behind it?
  14. http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=9129589 I know this is in this thread somewhere, but I caught a replay of it this weekend and E.J. was very impressive. Seems like a guy that the Bills should think long and hard about.
  15. Best joke of the Monica Lewinsky scandal: Jay Leno - Things actually got worse for President Clinton today - he was sued by famed magician David Copperfield. Copperfield claims that he invented and holds the exclusive rights to the disappearing cigar trick. Ba-dum-ba!
  16. I find the need to take in some heart-warming stories to combate all the violent and criminal ones that dominate the news. This one did the trick today, hope you enjoy it, too... http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9142300/jack-hoffman-7-scores-nebraska-cornhuskers-spring-game
  17. Glad to be of service.
  18. Here's a really nice tribute from the Buffalo News' Jeff Simon. Talks a lot about Ebert's great writing. http://buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130404/CITYANDREGION/130409620
  19. Weren't drafted by the team they play on now.
  20. I believe he is working under a name with a couple of 4s in it, but the post was Crayonz inspired, so I'll accept the compliment.
  21. The similarities between the two are eerie. For example: Both Kolb and Fitz are 4-letters long. Kolb played for Arizona, Fitz lived in Arizona. Fitz's nickname is "The Amish Rifle," Kolb once bought a rifle from the Amish. Kolb killed a boar by stabbing it in the heart (true story) while Fitz bored the heart out of Bills' fans for the past 2 years. Fitz was a 7th rd pick, Kolb once threw 7 picks in one game (may or may not be true). Both men have spouses named after singing stars - Liza for Fitz, Whitney for Kolb. Fitz went to Harvard, an ivy league school, as a child, Kolb had ivy growing on his school. It is clear that Fitz=Kolb and Kolb=Fitz. Spooky...
  22. Interesting article on Woodson's plight. What age do you think is too old to give a guy a shot? Obviously, I speak of skill positions like CB, WR, etc. I understand that kickers and punters regularly play to a much older age than other positions. http://espn.go.com/b...to-stay-patient
  23. Good guards can be found in the middle to late rounds or even as UDFAs. Taking Chance (or Cooper) at 8 is a waste of a high pick. Top 10 player should be an impact player at an impact position.
  24. My youngest son is autistic. I saw this video yesterday and we watched it together. Can't express how much kids like Ethan mean to me. (Got to meet J-Mac last year, too. What a great kid.)
  25. Loved Roger. RIP - Keep the aisle seat open for me.
