jboyst, the answer to your question is yes. And they should have left him dead (it already aired, I'm not going to worry about spoilers). For years now I thought that show should have ended with him dying. On another note, I'm surprised they couldn't get Cuddy back to do one quick hallucination scene.

And you were actually able to think of something?

I would want a Snarf just so I could tell it to shut the hell up, snarfsnarf.

I had that happens years ago when seeing one of the Gremlins movies (true story). Unfortunately Hulk Hogan wasn't there to straighten things out.

They actually gave you your money back? I was in a theater once that had to clear out for a fire and even then it was a hassle getting the money back.

Aren't you always complaining when the media writes anything negative? You can't have it both ways.

So knowing that something could cause problems but having absolutely no clue what those problems are means the player is informed and knows the risk he's taking? There's a big difference between thinking you might have headache issues the rest of your life vs. what is now starting to come to light.

See, that's just it. No they aren't. If the research is now just starting to put together the long terms risks of head injuries, no player can know exactly what kind of risk they're taking.

So the article says that they were assigned their historical figure. So doesn't the teacher have to take some of the blame here? What kid isn't going to think about the makeup right away in this scenario?

How would the footage be found anyway? Wouldn't the witch go after the person who finds the camera too?

60% of the time his movies work every time.

Steven Tyler, a woman in a wheel chair, and me in an elevator. I bet that's exactly what he had in mind when he wrote the song. I just hope they don't decide to make a new video.

Thank god for the fixes in the new CBA. Everyone's now on a level playing field in terms of getting guys in for the entire camp. Why did it take this long?

He was just talking, not singing.

Steven Tyler wished me a Merry Christmas in an elevator once.

But then the story would go away! Wait, didn't this story go away already? And speaking of the distance, did they ever even say where Martin was shot? I don't remember seeing anything about that at any point.

It makes you think about any team that wound up with back to back elite QBs. San Francisco is the first that comes to my mind.

Did he do the stupid voices back then too? That has to be his biggest downfall, the stupid voices and the ridiculously stupid characters he plays. I can watch a few of his movies like Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer, and Big Daddy. He's playing relatively normal people in those movies, with normal of course being relative to the rest of his career (yes, Happy Gilmore is normal compared to playing the devil, a retarded southerner, or his own twin sister). If he just stayed away from so many characters maybe people would have a higher opinion of him. Then again, the need to play all of those types probably says a lot about his talent level (its low).

Wasn't he feeling the best he's ever felt last year too? I feel like I saw that exact same quote at some point.

I heard a story yesterday that mentioned three times where this little "stumble" happened. He's definitely putting on a show.

I'm having a hard time caring about this one. I just don't expect this one to help or hurt us one bit.

There's going to be change, but like you said, there are enough aspects to this game that it can continue to thrive after those changes. I do think the NFL could very easily fall off of its pedestal though because of all of this. The talent dilution is a very strong possibility, but none of us will live to see it. We're talking about a 50-100+ year thing. There are other sports like boxing which I don't know how they can survive this. Its popularity is already way down and with more concussion issues coming to light, there's going to be very little justification for going that route. All I know is that if I'm the completely unrealistic parent who thinks my kid is going to make it as a pro athlete, I'd much rather it be baseball or golf. Low risk AND the atmosphere would be great. Follow my kid around on a beautiful golf course during great weather? Sign me up.

That was fast. I guess it does pay to get cut at the right time of the year.

A friend of mine went to BC and got married 2 years ago. His party was full of people who went to BC and BU, so his plan was to bounce around from bar to bar, all of the places we went while we were in college. That was a good time, if for nothing else than all the old stories coming to mind, especially the questionable way he wound up meeting his wife.

Inject concrete into the skull to encase the brain. There, the brain cannot move anymore, no more concussions. Sure, you'll die, but you won't get a concussion.
