Open air all the way. Dome's take all the charm out of it.

Any way this gets flexed to NBC?

When I was in high school (I played some college as well) I was a O and D linemen........and when I was at a party I heard noises that got my attention from another room....I went in and one of my teamates had a female cornered in the room.......that kid went flying through a door from my charge (that I ended up having to pay for....but I never liked the kid anyway) and the kid missed some games from getting hurt by that.
I never mentioned this to my son who followed suit and was a linebacker for his high school.....one morning he was telling me how he was at a party and nearly the EXACT same thing happened at this party with my son (along with one of his friends) did the exact same thing in the exact same situation. My kid (confirmed by other peole that know him) was always a "anti bully" type in high school.....couldnt stand it when the stronger picked on the weaker.
I was proud that I didnt even have to tell him right from wrong......stop raising these damn kids like they have a sense of entitlement and teach them to be gentlemen off the field and "turn the cap" on the field.
I know my story didnt happen in college.....but some of these kids are just one step away from being in college.
Well done John and good for your kid. You raised him right.

God, this is ridiculous. Was Spygate real? Of course it was. Just ask Mike Martz about installing plays they never ran in the season during the walk through on Saturday before SB36 and somehow the Pats knew what was coming. That being said, there is no doubt that they are the best coached team in the NFL year after year. Not to mention, they have one of the best money QB's ever. I hate them too but there is no denying how good they are. Don't worry....they'll lose to GB in the SB.

I read this this week and am I the only who find this whole story to strain credulity?
A seemingly normal guy takes her to a party and then asks if she wants to go somewhere quieter.
Now, climbing the frat-house stairs with Drew, Jackie felt excited.
Excited for what? They don't say. She wants to get laid this quick and this easy?
Then, it turns into a totally brutal gang rape straight from a war zone.
She doesn't report it to anybody, because her friends don't want to not be cool.
And, then this (Drew being the pseudonym for her "date"):
Two weeks after Jackie's rape, she ran into Drew during her lifeguard shift at the UVA pool. "Hey, Jackie," Drew said, startling her. "Are you ignoring me?" She'd switched her shift in the hopes of never seeing him again. Since the Phi Kappa Psi party, she'd barely left her dorm room, fearful of glimpsing one of her attackers. Jackie stared at Drew, unable to speak. "I wanted to thank you for the other night," Drew said. "I had a great time."
What?!? I have such a hard time believing that!!
Ummm What?
Did you not get the point of the article was the atmosphere of intimidation and institutional denial that exists at UVA? She's obviously traumatized and has received some bad advice. She should have gone to the police that night.

Terrestrial radio is a dying medium concerning itself not with class, but with desperately generating attention and ratings.
I could imagine those idiots at GR doing something equally as stupid if the situation was reversed. Detroit- we thank you for helping in a time of need. Now, go destroy the Pats for us both!
-
Well that sucks. I really wanted to see the AZ-SEA game, not NE destroying Detroit.
-
Good God! If they clean this up in time, I'll be impressed. Look for this game to be pushed back hours if not a day. Being in the middle of it, it'll take a huge effort to just make the minimal traffic possible.

On the upside, she stands to nab a helluva book deal when he's dead.
\\\Lol. No doubt.On the upside, she stands to nab a helluva book deal when he's dead.
"My life with Charlie" or "Charlie, A Life" Sadly, some publisher will pay for it.

Boy, this woman is a psychiatrists' case-study dream. No problem getting that published in a journal.

Cat Power. Sultry as they come.

Hope all is well with Bill. He has a good eye for the game and I love the Grateful Dead quotes in each postgame review. Hope to be reading his Jets review on Sunday.

Figured it was a good time to bring this back from the dead.
Its an example of ADD football fans.
And the reporters? Where'd they go ?
What happened to all the people that said Brady, Belichick and the Patriots were finished. Where are they?
My guess: saying that Brady and Belichick will win this years SB !! LOL !
So true!!!! The week to week speculation is always good for a laugh but the "Brady is done" episode had me laughing. People-This guy is done the day he retires which, barring major injury, is about 4-5 seasons away. I guarantee his last season ever will be a solid one. It hurts...I know, but it's the truth.
-
Very classy.
I have been to 5 Saints games over the years, and I have to say, the fans in New Orleans have always been pretty great...lets' not let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch. Reading some of the comments on the youtube clip of this incident, really depressed me...sometimes a douche is just a douche.
So true. The racist comments are horrifying yet not unexpected given how this country handles race. Everyone, It's 2014 not 1954. BTW-the guy is a jerk. No class.

Can't go wrong w/ Gwen

"And another thing about Marrone that sucks is....."

Marrone has just judged himself. He's done.

Hilarious because it's so true.

I can't stand NFLN aside from the "A Football Life" series and other NFL Films productions. Their live shows and "reporting" around the league are atrocious -- and that has nothing to do with what they say about the Bills.
Right on eball. With the vast vault and experience of NFL Films at their disposal, you would think the programming would be top notch. I had such hopes for NFLN but over the years it has delved into ESPN nonsense. BTW- that's a good poll ? Which is worse....ESPN or NFLN? I think it would be pretty close. That being said, I do try to catch Playbook when I can.

Earl was the man. Still the one back I would pick if I had to build an all time team. The guy was beat up and burned out quickly but for a few years, he was a force of nature and almost single handedly took the Oilers to the Super Bowl.
Yes. If those AFC title games were played in the Astrodome, it could have been a different story.

i liked all of the sopranos as well, but it did have "slow" moments in just about every season
The Wire was the most steadily awesome (lack of more artistic terms) show ever produced
Season Five was not way out in left field either...not sure why you would remember it that way...focused on the paper (each season focused on a new element of baltimore - docks, politics, school, paper), the showdown between marlos group and omar, and wraps up just about every thing out there (michael even becomes "the new omar" in the stick up game)...season 5 was boss
I thought the last season of The Sopranos was outstanding. However, David Chase did say that if HBO hadn't asked him to add 8 eps. to it he wouldn't have included the Veto/outing storyline. That being said, I liked what came of it. Poor Veto should have stayed in NH. I love how they turned Veto's death into part of the escalation of tensions between NJ and NY, culminating in a short war with Phil's head being squashed like a melon.
The last 8eps. of 6 also included one of the great ones of all-time, "Luxury Lounge." How do you argue with an ep. w/ Ben Kingsley and Lauren Bacall in it. Check out this ep. w/ the directors commentary on. Awesome.
I agree w/ your view on The Wire's 5th season. The manipulation and spin by the Mayor's office was wonderful.

The kid has Down's? I figured he was just from Boston...
