  1. I think that was the point, that he seems much quicker in person than on tape.
  2. See, this is BS. You have NO idea about Maybin's maturity vs these other guys. Yes, he's younger...he's also had some tough life experiences that have tested him. He has a strong support system in place, including his father (a Minister) and LaVar Arrington.
  3. Gaughin called his 1st step "impressive", and thta he was surprised.
  4. I used to use a service for everything. Have you taken apart the filter, and cleaned it thoughly? I was having a similar issue last season, and I had about 20 lbs of DE in my filter, even though I regularly backwash.
  5. Good for him, I suppose. Life is too !@#$ing short to bull sh-- around.
  6. Tim...any insight on McCargo? Haven't really heard much about him in the last week or so. Just wondering if he looks good, bad...whatever.
  7. Interesting that Nick Hennessey (who also can't attend because of the stupid final exam rules) is still on the roster and Bell is not.
  8. This rule is idiotic. If some kid was offered a job as a software programmer and they want him to start immediately, he could (by blowing off the finals). But, as soon as the NCAA gets involved it all goes wrong.
  9. Year and a half maybe. Something like that. I see where you are going here, and there is obviously a huge difference in the quality. But, I figure, I used to catch most of the Bills games in the heydey of the 90s on the radio because I worked my gas station job on Saturdays and Sundays. If I can deal with that, I can deal with standard def for a chunk of games. Remember, some of the Bills games will be nationally televised. I am sure there will be a couple of weeks where the Bills game is played in HD locally for me because the Pats have a bye, or are playing a night game or something. So, the question is: is it worth the extra $100 to watch maybe 10 games that I really care about in HD? So far, it hasn't been. My wife and I make good livings, we can pay the mortgage and cars, student loans and are paying down out credit card debt but it's hard for me to defend to my wife that I need to spend a total of $275 to watch Bills games. Besides, as she's a local she's a (very tepid) Pats fan
  10. I do object to the HD broadcasts being on another, higher priced tier. I am keeping the Ticket...but I can live with standard def for the Bills games.
  11. the nice thing about the Electra is they are made for "flat footing" when you stop. You can basically stand without a crossbar killing your ability to procreate. Other manufacturers have picked up on this now.
  12. You can try it.....I did that and got a deal, maybe 10 bucks off a month. I was threatening to move to Comcast, and even though I had a cancellation fee (from when I upgraded to HDTV), they gave me a deal.
  13. I bought a new bike 3 years ago, and seriously considered an Electra...at REI. Those folks known their bikes, and are just as helpful as any small local store. And REI has some sort of employee ownership thing so the employees actually care... they want repeat business I ended up buying a Specialized Hardrock at a local store. Now I kind of wish I had bought the cruiser, just so much more comfortable and I was probably optimistic about how much offroad I was going to do. A year later I bought my wife an REI "house" brand bike, and it is just as well made as my Specialized.
  14. You're kidding right? Show me any history of violence with this kid. Stupidity? Oh yeah, plenty of that. Immaturity? yep. Violence, nada whiff unless you count being shot at before his sister's graduation....which while scary is not unheard of at Oakland Tech.
  15. Reggie Corner has a mild case of diarreah, while John McCargo has a touch of heartburn after a latenight chili dog.
  16. Didn't Pete Prisco used to write for the Jets website? How is that neutral?
  17. I find Rotoworld to be as reliable as Florio (I think he just re-hashes Rotoworld 50% of the time).
  18. You're kidding right? The most conservative offensive gameplan in the NFL, all of a sudden they are going to be the Greatest Show on Turf?
