My predictions for tonight:
Bottom 3: Mikalah, Jessica, & Nadia
Eliminated: Jessica
-
The one thing that stands out with these picks is that there are 6 of them in the 3rd round.
I do not think there has ever been that many comp picks in the 3rd round.
That is very significant for the ending of the 1st day of the draft.

Because, unfortunately, the Raiders are one of the most popular teams in the NFL, even when they suck. Never mind that they can not sell out a home game without ABC or ESPN helping out with buyng up the remainder of their tix, so they will be on TV. While adding Moss will help the offense a lot, the Raiders traded away their best defensive player in Napolean Harris, to get him. Throw in the fact that that they cut Ray Buchanan, have a disgruntled Charles Woodson, and 2 over-the-hill DT's in Sapp & Washington, the Raiders D is just not that imposing.AKC Today, 08:03 PM Post #4Curfew Breaker

And just how is it that the pathetic 5-11 Raider franchise gains the priviledge of a Monday Night game? ABC apparently learned nothing from their ratings disaster of last season that offered two Fish and three Cowboy appearances.

Because it would make too much sense. We can't have that in sports.Clements22 Posted Today, 09:58 PMJust a random question:
Is there a reason why they will announce just a couple of games now and then the entire schedule a couple of weeks later? I imagine the schedule is done if they annouce a couple of games, why not just announce the whole thing??
-
I would take Baas in a second without hesitation.
I just think he will be long gone before we pick.

And Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous, is out on Thursday.
That's the one I want to see. I watched the first one about 10 times!
10 times!!!??? Well cablelady you will have the whole theatre to yourself when # 2 comes out.

If Tags wants to send a team to play in Mexico, why not send the Raiders? Thats where all there fans are. Besides the Raiders never sell out at home.

A great place for breakfast is the Grand Lux Cafe in The Venetian.
A great place for dinner is the Palm Restaurant at Caesar's Palace. Although technically it's in the Forum shopping center.
If you go to any shows while you are there, I highly recommend seeing one of the Cirque du Soleil shows they have. There are 4 of them right now: "Mystere" at Treasure Island, "KA" at MGM Grand, "O" at Bellagio, & "Zumanity" at New York New York.
"O" is the most difficult one to get tickets too, but it is an amazing show. But you can not miss with either of these. "Zumanity" is for adults only.

I have'nt seen The Ring 2, although I want too. As far as worst sequel goes, we recently had "Son of the Mask" out.
And Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous, is out on Thursday. Those two films might give Ring 2 a break.

Keep dreaming. Episodes 7-9 will never happen.Fezmid Posted Today, 07:42 PMI'd rather Lucas make Star Wars 7-9, but this might be kinda neat... We'll see.
It would be great to see Star Wars in 3-D and in IMAX too.
-
I was wondering that too. I'm surprised no one on this board has the info on this girl.
Look how fast they got the Go Daddy girl, the Tabasco girl, and the Hardee's girl up here after the Super Bowl.
I also like the Burger King commercial for the Bacon Cheddar Ranch. Using a Texas theme, looks like a stage from "Hee-Haw", throwing in the Cowboys cheerleaders and Shania Twain is a nice touch too.

There are a lot of people in this movie that are'nt even credited: Carla Gugino, Michael Clarke Duncan, Rutger Hauer, Josh Hartnett.
Curiously, this movie comes out April 1st and still does not have a rating. What gives?

Here is the latest schedule for Lost, new episode titles and dates:
March 30: Deux Ex Machina
April 6: Do No Harm
April 20: The Greater Good
April 27: Born To Run
That brings the 1st season of Lost to a total of 22 episodes. Which is usually how many a show makes in 1 season.

My standings as of now:
1.Anwar. Had an off night but still the favorite to win it all.
2.Nadia. Very strong performance.
3.Bo. Has been outstanding week after week.
4.Carrie. Another strong performance, staying consistent.
5.Scott. He deserves to go far in this competition.
6.Constantine. Solid performer, took a chance, and it paid off.
7.Anthony. Took a step back, but will still be a strong competitor.
8.Vonzell. Up and down performer, showed very well last night.
9.Mikalah. Sang a song best suited for her, but can she keep it going?
10.Jessica. Slowly getting better, but the competition is too strong.
11.Nikko. Came back and was not that good. Pick better songs.
Did Ozzie Smith pay off Mario to leave?
-
Has to be Lindsey. She was not good.

How is it that Detroit, Washington, Jacksonville, & New Orleans all get national tv preseason games, and the Bills do'nt?
The Bills win 7 of their last eight games of the season, and no national tv for the damn pre-season. No respect!!
-
How about Joey Galloway? Went from Seattle to Dallas, that move never paid off. Or was that a trade too?
As far as the Bills go, they have been very successful with free agency. The only player I can think of that did not work out for the Bills was Joe Panos.
But look at the players the Bills got via free agency: Chris Spielman, Bryce Paup, Ted Washington, Bill Brooks, Quinn Early, London Fletcher, Takeo Spikes, Lawyer Milloy, Troy Vincent, Sam Adams. The positives clearly outweigh the negatives.
-
I can see it now:
Arizona Vs. San Francisco in Mexico City
Then:
Buffalo Vs. New England in Toronto
Then:
Super Bowl L (50) in London
-
Interesting. Glad to see Nikko back. I was never impressed with Mario.
As good as Nikko is, I would still put him about middle of the pack.

Upon further review, I will throw out that this was simply a staged event to hit the news the Friday leading up to the weekend "Hostage" is released to theaters.
Willis' name is out there while the movie is being promoted, and it probably serves as a reminder that even at 50, Willis can kick ass in an action flick.
Everything out here is done for a reason.
Very good observation LA. Not only does Willis have Lohan in the news with him, he also gets to lust after Jessica Alba in the upcoming "Sin City". Trend?
You are awesome Aussie. Too bad that relationship you had, ended that way.aussiew Posted Yesterday, 04:00 PMQUOTE

Thank you.

San Jose, CA/31/ San Jose, CA
Never been to Buffalo for a game. Hopefully that will change in the near future.

Men:
1.Bill O'Reilly. The inventor of the "No Spin Zone" is super-cool.
2.Ric Flair. WOOOOHHHHH!!!! The only wrestler around who can still wear a robe to the ring.
3.Christopher Lee. 80 years young and still a strong presence in movies. Now that is cool.
Honorable mention:
Johnny Carson. I could'nt say enough on how cool this man was.
Mel Kiper Jr. He gets paid to analyze the NFL Draft. What could be more cool than that?
Women:
1.Shania Twain. Hands down the greatest and coolest country singer to ever come out of Canada. And DAMN she's HOT!!!
2.Cate Blanchett: Maybe now she will get more recognition. She's an outstanding actress.
3.E.D. Hill: The Fox of Fox News Channel, is also one of the coolest women in the news today.

I had the show Tivo'd in one room and taped in another room just to be on the safe side. Fortunately I got it all on Tivo.
Oh man, what an awesome trailer. This movie is going to rock. Palpatine looks ferocious, I can not wait to see his lightsaber fighting.
Rumor is out that this could be the first Star Wars with a PG-13 rating.
Did anyone see General Grievous in the trailer? I did'nt.
I totally geeked out at the end of the trailer when they showed Vader & Palpatine standing side-by-side!!!
If anyone is trying to find it online, StarWars.com will have it online by Monday.
R.Rich, regarding Ray Park and Iron Fist, that movie has been pushed back to the talking stages. So don't expect it anytime soon.
Did any of you see the tv spot they had for "Sin City" last night also? That was about half way through the O.C. Looks great.
I can not wait until May.

Fan in San Diego Today, 06:01 AM Post #7
QUOTE(MarkVaderr50 @ Mar 11 2005, 02:10 AM)
They've been in Buffalo for over 40 years, they'll be there for 50 years more.
If the day does come that the Bills leave Buffalo, minutes after the announcement is made, God will say, "Alright, BEGIN THE APPOCALYPSE!!"
No offense to those here who do not believe in God.
Buffalo's population is shrinking every year. If it keeps shrinking, at some point, it will not be able to sustain an NFL franchise. Many cities including LA, San Diego and Las Vegas are growing every year. They will get a Franchise. It's a numbers thing.
While it is true about Buffalo's population, there are still fans from the other surrounding cities and areas that go to the games also.
Thats what happens out here in the Bay Area. I guarantee you that not all fans who go to the Raiders & 49'ers games are strictly from Oakland & SF.
(OT) What's Your Favorite Food?

I love Italian food.
Lasagna is my favorite dish. I have a great recipe for it. Trust me, lasagna is a lot better without the ricotta cheese.
I never get sick of pizza.
Spaghetti with meatballs AND italian sausage!!! YUM YUM!!!
My favorite steak is filet mignon, although I have tried chateubriand, and that's awesome too. Throw in some garlic mashed potatos, some string beans & carrots, and you really got something there.
I love the food at Benihana's. It's all good, but the fried rice is fantastic.
Favorite desserts: Lemon Meringue Pie from Marie Calendar's.
Chocolate Chip Cheesecake, although i'm not that picky when it comes to cheesecake.
Rice Pudding. It sounds simple, but it's hard to find at restaurants.
Fried bananas. MMMMMM delicious, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
If I think of more, i'll post accordingly.
