  1. Alvin Wyatt, Cornerback from some bad teams, all I remember was he had the weirdest facemask ever in the NFL, It was a single bar that curved up in the front. Left and went to the WFL
  2. No, I'm going to the Steelers game, I have a family party this weekend home.
  3. Well, for you Mr Garcia, we will wave the Zweigels......
  4. Maybe if the women were to do a "Topless wave" whenever Cleveland has the ball we may be able to distract em. Thats really taking one for the team.
  5. I sincerely hope you are right, We need to come out of the tunnel pumped, take it to them right away, don't mess around like the Miami game, get the crowd into a frenzy and we can keep the streak alive!!
  6. I am definately interested, I have mine in the upper deck, and am looking for my nephew for his Christmas gift.
  7. I was out on a 7.50 stop order, loved it, pulled me back from a hole from earlier in the year, was in at 2.44 out at 7.50. Moved on to LBC to take the December dividend to pay the tax on the Sirius bump.
  8. Is this considered a tank now?, Down about 2 bucks off the opening, I just wanted to hang on until the new year so my short term gains roll to next years taxes.....damn
  9. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a DLP (I like the lightweight and thin profile). Does anyone have any additional models/price ranges I should be looking at?
  10. Maybe it's like one of those third world democracys, you have to pay them to be in it, The President needs to be paid, the minions need to be compensated for putting thier thought processes on hold. Do as Rock says, send in your check!
  11. Well, Martha Stewart seemed to have that one worked out, check with her, maybe the order is somewhere on the guys desk.... Seriously, you could call the Compliance officer at the firm and ask for an accounting of the transaction (or lack). The problem is the amount of time between then and now. If you feel you were screwed, you should have bought the shares and then gone to arbitration with the broker for the difference in what you ordered and what you ultimately got them for. If it was called in, he has a tape of the conversation (most order desks do this, private clients may not) but if he took an order, he should have it, with a time stamp. If your conversation was more suggestion or speculation that you might be interested if it hit 3 bucks and no specifically delineated order was given, then he gets a free out. I used to work in compliance for one of the Exchanges, they actually can help if you give them enough information
  12. Damn, I wish I had bought more...... 600 shares since 8/27 Thanks Jack from Syracuse
  13. Up until week 5 I was screaming for Sheltons release, now Im trying to vote him into the Pro Bowl...(and I hate agreeing with DC Tom)
  14. Man this coud turn out to be funny, all those posts, just waiting to be mined.... ice could have his own board......we could call it the "ice Follies"
  15. Great news, looks like you could use one of these Sid's perfect driving companion
  16. I still believe that the coaching staff will decide next year what is best and how JP development is coming along. The ranks of insurance agents and car sales forces are littered with QB's that went into the game too early. My only hope is that when TD says "He gives us the best chance to win" he is really behind that statement and not starting Drew just to save face. I really don't care who is starting as long as it's the best QB we have on our roster. It took Elway (drafted 1983) 15 years before he won a super bowl, although he had lost the first 2 that he had participated in. In hindsight, ice would say that he saw this coming, yet in 1992 he would be screeching like a howler monkey with hemaroids that Elway must go, and until (insert any alternate here) gets playing time, the fans of Denver will never get a Ssuper Bowl victory. All I'm saying is relax, and let it play out.
  17. Actually ice is very rational, he has said that Bledsoe is done and we cannot win or even think about winning a super bowl until JP is in the drivers seat. That is all well and good. His claim that once JP begins taking snaps as a starter we will begin in earnest our quest for the holy grail. This may be true. What he is setting the table for is that he has told us that until JP gets his starting snaps we are fools to revel in any false sucess we see by Bledsoes hands, since that is not who shall ultimately lead us to the promised land, rather, an average QB who leads us to mediocracy. Looking at his projections, he states that until JP is given starting snaps, he cannot improve....absolutely correct, since no rookie qb has had his first start in the super bowl, ice has got himself covered, he cannot be wrong on this point since no starting QB in a Super Bowl has ever won on his first start, that being the super bowl. If we look even deeper, we see that of the winning QBs in super bowl history, most had been starters during the season that they played in the super bowl, again, ice is right, starters go to the super bowl. What he misses is the speed in which it takes a QB to be Super Bowl ready, look at the winning Qb's in all the Super Bowls...now look how long it took them to get there, Len Dawson was on his 2nd team and had waited 5 years before starting, Bart Starr...do you remember him? anyone know how long it was before he started? 4 years for Starr. I'm sure ice's demands that JP must start now are from his desire to see the team do well, but the fact is not all super bowl caliber QB's are thrown into the game and start the first year, Elway was a starter his first year, it took him quite a few years before he finally attained his first ring, Favre didnt start until his second year, Brady didnt start until his second year, Dilfer started 2 games in his rookie year, Brad Johnson 8 starts in his 5th year, Warner 0 starts in his first year, Namath started as a rookie, super bowl 3 years later. The reverse scenario, where a rookie QB is thrown in early (first season) and dissapears from the NFL is a more lengthy list, but a few off the top are Leaf, McGuire, Blackledge, and Couch. Anyone else can go do the research to flesh out all the others that were first round picks that were thrown in too early and failed miserably. I have to put some trust in the coaching staff, specifically Sam Wyche and Mularkey in knowing what is best for JP at this point. He will play when ready, and until then, he can prepare every game like he could go in at a moments notice.
  18. Loosely translated: "We were trying to win the game, but we were hamstrung by these ridiculous uniforms we are forced to wear" Said interin head coach Jim Bates. When we came out for the second half we realized that there were no fans left in the stands, since the Blue Plate specials would be starting in less than an hour. "We mailed it in from there". But with 2:05 left in the fourth quarter, Feeley attempted a pass to running back Travis Minor on the Miami 20 yard line but was intercepted by defensive tackle Pat Williams, who had eaten 317 hamburgers at halftime, Williams returned the interception to the end zone where he was rewarded with a large baked ham from the remaining dolphins fans.
  19. Ohhh Darin.....you dissapoint us, you should have called it an "action figure", now that you have lost all crediblity.....
  20. How does 11 respondents equal 21% of this board? Did they at anytime say they would leave if an assbear preferred board were not instituted? If this board is not to your liking, please feel free to leave, assclown
  21. 144229[/snapback] If there is a chance at getting a copy of the comeback I would love to get that in DVD if possible. I had to sit on the front porch and watch through the window since the comeback started after I went out to get errands done (yes, I too didn't believe they would come back), I have yet to see the game from beginning to end.
  22. We will be in town for New years, I was thinking of Chippewa, or maybe some Elmwood Bars. Hope to be at the game too, wife doesnt want to go, so I may be with my 16 year old, or maybe my brother. Let us know where everyone is going New years eve!! We will probably take a hotel room downtown for the night.
