  1. Woohoo! It's $250 more than a netbook with only a quarter of the functionality! Awesome!

  3. My boss is a Redskins fan. Me: The Redskins have officially announced the signing of running back Larry Johnson Him: ya, he sucks

  6. +1. This was exactly the point I was gonna make.
  7. Wait, you're trying to convince us that its easy to find good QBs by telling us 2/22 QBs were good? O_o
  8. Did anyone else find this statement hilarious?
  9. There's a difference between partisan and personal biases.
  10. Nix likes big receivers, and so do I. Kelley Washington is listed at 6-3, versus Josh Reed's 5-10. I think we're making a move like this to try to get some size at the position.
  11. Is he worth a 3rd-round pick? Well, I think he's better than the other QBs available in the 3rd round.
  12. He should be looking at both. Available long-term solutions for positions where they can get long-term solutions this year, stop-gap solutions for positions where no one available is a long-term solution.
  13. Buy a Blackberry.
  14. Those election laws were more or less stacked when the constitution was written (SMSP ftl).
  15. Chrome's become my #1 now

  17. Technically they are both "Android OS" phones, but only one is DROID.
  18. Cynical, Figure you might be interested in this article: http://frankthetank.wordpress.com/2010/02/...to-the-big-ten/
  19. It's a great phone. The only thing keeping me away from it is: 1.) Verizon (I'm an AT&T guy) 2.) Blackberry Messenger If I didn't want those two, I'd be all over a droid.
  20. The problem is that teams like TCU and Utah/Boise might have better ideas in mind. Short term, it'd be great, sure. But, travel costs + ****ty TV contract + other conferences looking at expansion + limited recruiting/exposure area might make the Big 12 not as attractive option as waiting a year or two for another confernece.
  21. I actually chose UT over UF because of academics. It's a better school than several SEC schools. No big deal there!
  22. Yup. Gil Brandt is the man.
  23. Yeah, indeed, that still would be huge. That's a much better way of putting it, thanks. They are definitely recruiting the whole country (hence the top prospect we took from Ohio), but it would definitely help the presence up there. That's what a lot of the talk is saying. A&M continues to annoy! The talk is Colorado to the Pac-10, and Mizzou to the Big-10, killing the Big-12. Far fetched, I think, but its out there. Haha! That'd be interesting, Texas in the SEC. That would add the biggest individual brand to the biggest conference brand. I wonder what that would do to the rest of college football.
  24. Cynical, as you can imagine, there's been a ton of discussion on the Texas boards about this. The biggest reason why Texas would want to do this is money. The Big 12 TV deal is terrible. Texas received $12 million from the Big 12 TV deal last year. Indiana and Purdue received $22 million from the Big 10's. If Texas joined the Big 10, as by far the biggest college brand in the entire country, it stands to reason they'd receive more than Indiana and Purdue. It also provides the benefits of getting to recruit the Big 10 talent as well, not just Texas. Its also a better fit academically. If you look at college rankings and traditions, the quality of Texas academics is much more on par with the higher quality education in the Big 10 than it is the academically-challenged Big 12. I think the biggest obstacle to such a move will be the Texas government. They'd have to approve any UT switch, and they're not going to leave A&M out to dry. If UT bolts to the Big Ten, they're going to want A&M to be assured of being okay as well. There's also rumors Texas is talking to the Pac-10. There's a lot of thought that if Mizzouri bolts for the Big 10, and Colorado leaves as well, the Big 12 is in trouble, as other schools will bolt too. If that happens, Texas needs a backup plan, and it could force Texas into joining either the Pac-10 or Big-10..
  25. Funny, he didn't listen to the fans, and he should have gotten fired from his GM spot.
