  1. First Girl you made out with???? Why does this add to the story? Was there a boy you made out with first? I am confused
  2. Missing some key information here. 1) How long until you plan on retiring 2) How long do you plan on living in this home 3) Is your student loan interest tax-deductible (depends on income) Generally speaking, the larger your mortgage the better. Mortgage interest is tax deductible, thus your 5.8% interest is effectively much lower (~4%). If your student loan interest is deductible as well, your effective rates are also in the 4% range. In this case...stash the money elsewhere. You can get more than 4%.
  3. Because its hockey. Players are drafted early (18-19 years old ish...) they then get the option to go pro, or stay in the collegiate ranks. Many college teams are littered with NHL draftees. These players are property of the NHL clubs, and often leave school early to go pro with the club that owns their rights. However...since he was not drafted...he is essentially a free agent and can sign a pro contract with any team at any time.
  4. More likely we move down to #22 or #28 and pick up their 1st rounder NEXT year.
  5. I would too...if elam was 30. While Elam may be better than lindell THIS season, its impossible to know how long he will continue to perform. And due to the long period of time it took for me to become comfortable with a kicker after christie left, I am not willing to give up a short term gain for long term pain.
  6. ...and its served by topless waitresess... ...and its free.
  7. Yeah. You draft one late (round 6/7) who can contribute on special teams. Oh, and dont forget about wire. Although I think he will be a LB this year, he can (poorly) play safety in a pinch.
  8. Barbaro got alot of money in stud fees, did he not?
  9. Titans | V. Young lands Madden '08 cover Mon, 16 Apr 2007 20:28:59 -0700 Terry McCormick, of the Nashville City Paper, reports Tennessee Titans QB Vince Young will appear on the cover of EA Sports Madden 2008 video game. A source with knowledge of the situation confirmed Young would be on the cover. An official announcement is expected Tuesday, April 17. I for one, am shocked. I thought Manning had it locked up this year
  10. I stand corrected. He did NOT have us taking youboty.. He had youboty going 31 overall to Seattle here is the draft. Not sure how I made that mistake. http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft06/ins...&id=2405172
  11. I got tickets in section 130, off stubhub for 85 bucks. Course, I bought them the day the schedule came out. Now you cant touch them for less than about 115
  12. I guess a comp pick is out of the question?
  13. Where is the "none of the above" option?
  14. Yeah, i hit enter and couldnt figure out how to delete it until I was done!
  15. I did this quick, but here is the results I was able to get out of the 2006 draft. (Based on an early April 06 Kiper Mock) First Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 4 (D'Brick, Hawk, Davis, Mercedes Lewis) Of the 32 picks, Kiper correctly identified 26 of them (missed Carpenter, Hali, Joseph, Mangold, Addai and Kiwi) as being first round picks Second Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 0 Correct Team, but wrong Pick number - 2 (McIntosh, Justice) Of the 32 picks, Kiper correctly identified 15 of them as being 2nd round picks Third Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 0 Correct Team, but wrong Pick number - 3 (Winston, Youboty, Pope) Of the 33 picks, Kiper correctly identified 12 of them as being 3rd round picks Summary In the ENTIRE first 3 rounds, Kiper only identified FOUR correct picks (Team and Number). In the ENTIRE first 3 rounds, Kiper only correctly identified 9 of 97 picks to the correct team. Of the 97 players taken in the first 3 rounds, only 76 of them were in his 3 round mock draft. So, someone tell me why we should listen to this Goober?
  16. Even better...i wish this could be executed. But I always perfer silence. If they announced his name and the stadium was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. THAT would mess with a guy. I've seen it done in college hockey before..but its hard to execute.
  17. Okay, so its NBC...eh well. I was close!
  18. No one player makes a team. Willis fills a big need. Is he everything we need? of course not! But its one hole we will plug. Keep in mind that there are NO STARTERS (that I know of) who are UFAs after this season. In a 2 year plan, we need to find a RB, CB, LB, FB and make sure our OL and DL are up to snuff. Take the best guys you can NOW. Willis, if he is on the board, is that guy.
  19. This could mean Cullpepper goes to Oakland to reunite with Moss. CJ goes #1 overall, and mock drafters everywhere explode.
  20. Im appalled yet amazed by the creativity.
  21. IF someone could assure me that a top 5 pick in 2008 would get us to the 2009 superbowl, Great, let us finish 4-12. But the reality is that half of the top 5 picks will be busts. We run the risk of tieing up a ton of money on a Mike Williams, Robert Gallery, Charles Rodgers, etc. and we gave up a good year of development. I agree with your premise that we are really building for 2008 here, not 2007. But the way to do this is by winning NOW. This is a young group of guys who do not have the "buffalo losing attitiude". We need to win to build their confidence. Teach them to be winners. We can do this. There are no guarentees that come with a top 5 pick.
  22. Please stop with the backup crap. Walter Payton would be a backup if he was currently playing on the San Diego Roster. I am against giving up a first for Turner....UNLESS...we are hell bent on using that pick on Lynch. If we decide Lynch is the correct guy at 12, I would rather give the pick to SD for Turner.
