Happy Hanukkah

One does not fix it by ignoring it either. About the only way to guarantee that nothing changes is to ignore the issue. Besides, it's not an "equality" thing. It's an "opportunity" issue. Your Mcdonalds anaolgy only works becasue McDonalds interviews all qualified candidates. That was not the case for the NFL for many years, and probably still isn't.

Yeah, I really feel sorry for the NFL owner who is forced to shell out a few thousand dollars to interview a minority candidate. If Shell thought it was a waste of his time, he wouldn't have taken the interview like Denny Green for the Detroit job. So I take it you prefer the good old days of recycling the old familiar retread coaches?

Were you as vocal in your concern for minority candidates when they weren't getting any interview opportunities at all?

There's a good article on the front of ESPN's NFL section about Art Shell. It sums up fairly well how I feel. Sometimes the interview is going to be a token one, but I bet Shell and other candidates are more experienced and more prepared the next time an opening comes around that they can interview for. I think Randy Shannon made a mistake by not interviewing. I'm sure he could have used the practice. ESPN Article

Congrats on your new edition.

I must be slow. Still haven't gotten to Earth yet. Wife, kids, and job are interferring with my gaming. Anyway, my gamertag is Ozzymandias. I'll look for you. It seems to take forever to match games though.

No, the reason why I can ppick up Halo and play likes it's the first time is becasue it's a damn good game. I can't think of another FPS that I can do that with. I just started Attack on the Control center for the upteenth time. Great level. I know I'm in the minority here, but Half-Life did not do much for me. I didn't like the graphics at the time, and the story was very slow to develop. I'm not sure if I even finished it.

I basically did the same thing, but thought my 9200 would be good enough. Doom3 plays okay on the lower resolution, but that's not how I want to play the game. I'm trying to justify getting a 9800 card. I bought a DVI-HDTV adapter that will allow me to hook up to my big screen tv to the computer but it doesn't work with the 9200. It will be sweet playing Doom 3 on the big screen and the digital surround sound.

I've got it. Waiting to upgrade my video card until I play it though. ATI 9200SE sucks.

I have to disagree with you Mike. I'm an origanl Doom player over Lans. Halo is by far the best FPS shooter I've ever played. I thought it would be tough getting away from the keyboard and mouse, but I find it harder to go back to PC games. I can still pick up Halo and play it like it was the first time. Can't wait for H2.

Why don't we get it over with and put Mcgahee's picture at the top of TBD. After all, that Travis Henry is such a bum. I can't even remember why we put him up there last year. Willis is clearly so much better than Travis. He's a warrior. He carried the whole team for a single game. He's proven he's the man. So let's put his picture where it belongs. B)

How do you get that he hates America from the clip you link to?

Just out of curiosity for those on the left and the right.... what gives the US or the UN the right to say who can and can't have nuclear weapons?

So I should vote for Bush because Jim Kelly's a Republican? That makes sense.

Ever hear of Tim McVeigh and Terry Nichols? David Koresch sp? Jim Jones? Eirc Rudolph? Granted some of these guys were too cowardly to actually kill themselves, but you get my point.

Well, it looks like everyone is right on this one. WMD history and definition
