  1. If you like steak and pate, get to Robert et Louise.
  2. I booked the standard tour while in Guayaquil in 2009 (150th anniversary of Origins). Stayed on the main island, then Took various tours as part of the package. If I did it again, I'd book a boat tour that allows you to see and experience much more, But much more $. Amazing either way, especially if you're good at snorkeling. I had a ball swimming with sea lions and following a marine iguana.
  3. This is why guys like zach brown should coveted.
  4. Going into his 3rd year, and after that health scare, one hopes he's thinking about a big pay day after the 2017 season. He has the talent to be a good RT. Here's to hoping he takes a big step up this year.
  5. Based on what Rex ran in NY, in 2014 for example, his 3-4 used Wilkerson, Snacks, and Richardson on the interior, then Coples, Davis, Harris, and Pace. Pace = Hughes and Coples = Mario. If they pick up Davis, then he and Brown in the middle, with Lawson (in Mario's spot for now) and Hughes on the outside. For the interior 3, Dareus and KW at ends, then you need a true NT in the middle. i think the #1 need is to replace Mario's spot. They will also need someone to replace KW next year, and spell him a lot this year. They'll need another LB in passing situations if they pick up Davis. I think they can find a space-eating NT in the later rounds, if they don't already have one on the roster in TJ Barnes? In R1, I think they'll go with the BPA between the Mario replacement and the KW replacement--seems to be where the most talent is that will also be available at the pick. My thoughts at least.
  6. They lost Mario and Bradham as starters, so I'm not so sure they need 5 of 7 focused there, definitely the first 2 picks though. I think they will also bring in some cheap vets for depth too.
  7. Agreed. I was adding fuel to your optimism!
  8. I think the next moves will be to re-sign a couple of guys they didn't think were worth the RFA tender--Powell and Rambo; then maybe make Carrington an offer. Also grab a couple cheap vets for depth, or maybe one decent UFA at $1.5-2 mil?
  9. With the exception of Harvin, the starting O is intact.
  10. Sure hope they try to bring him back. They need another LB with some experience, and he's a good ST player.
  11. As Scarborough states, it's a con that has come home to bite the Republican establishment bit time. My favorite moment of the race so far, having Romney--the epitome of the Rep establishment--attack Trump. These guys are really stoopid....
  12. bernanke was a dem president?
  13. Admitting the policies the Republicans push are focused on the "donor class" not the middle class. Scarborough
  14. schwartz knows he's lazy. Good for Leo!
  15. didnt the raiders draft (name escapes me) in R1!? Janikowski--just saw it being discussed in shout box
  16. the pats drafted gostowski (sp?) in R4 I believe.
  17. A couple things to add. On Kauai, as recommended, a helicopter ride that shows you the Na Pali coast will be well worth it; however, I'd also recommend that you do the 2-mile hike into the first beach (Hanakapiai I believe), especially after you've seen it by air. Once there, you can hike another mile or so up the river to the waterfall, even take a dip in the pool there. On the Big Island, there aren't many beaches, but a really nice one is Hapuna, about 30 minutes north of the airport. I'd also recommend driving to the north shore, going all the way until the road ends--it's a very rustic area, unlike touristy Kona. You can take a little hike down to the beach there as well. Kealakekua Bay is nice visit about 30 minutes south of Kona, and it's where Captain Cook first landed and also was killed (there's a white monument on one end of the bay accessible by boat tour). You should also go to the City of Refuge near there (read up on what it is, interesting stuff). There's a nice restaurant Ray's at the Keahou Sheraton (I believe), and it's name comes from the fact schools of Manta rays feed at night just off the cliffs where the restaurant is located. You can do a boat tour out of Kona for this as well. Dining options in Kona: my favorite place is "Quinn's almost by the sea." It looks like a dive bar, but has a nice patio in the back, and they buy their fish straight from the boats for the evening's specials. The Brew Pub in Kona is a nice place for a bite too, but it's in an industrial park. Definitely have a cocktail at the Kona Inn and watch the sun set--it's a great setting. If you want a real taste of "local food," try Teshima's about 15-20 minutes south of Kona along the highway. If you're staying in a condo with a kitchen, you can buy fresh ahi at almost any supermarket. Enjoy.
  18. When the rumors about Cromartie meeting with the Bills came out, I figured this might happen. If it's a swap for Cro, pushed by Rex, then they better get a good deal. I thought a discounted Leo would be the best choice for the #3 CB. We'll see.
  19. Yes, I was counting him in based on that. They really only need someone to replace Brooks at this point..
  20. Hopefully Leo is next. Keep Rambo and the secondary is pretty much set.
  21. Maybe you misunderstand the warning? When you use the plane, the air born particles eventually make their way to California, causing cancer for some poor legal immigrant's child...
  22. This was discussed some time ago. Yes, they did buy up the debt at a good discount, then sued Argentina in a NY court...
  23. Yes, let someone else overpay for a guard, and bring in one of those you mention for a reasonable value. I'd go for Boone since he's got history with Roman.
  24. Depends on what you actually mean. If you're insinuating they are collecting government handouts, then you are probably wrong. If you are insinuating they "work" in the underground economy, then you are probably right.
