I had a 9:30 class that morning. Then at around 11:30 I was waiting in line at the dining hall for lunch. I heard the kid in front of me talking on his phone, saying things like "yeah, I'm in one of the tallest buildings in Boston, it's not very comfortable". It sounds kind of crazy to me as I had no clue what happened. I'm not even sure when I eventually found out, but after lunch I was glued to the tv for a couple hours. I eventually had to head to a class, assuming it had been canceled, but I had to play it safe. For some reason, it was the one professor who didn't completely shut down that day. Right at the start of class, he made a comment that will forever stick out in my head. It was something to the effect of "We all saw what happened, but it is no big deal. We need to move on and continue our day." This had to have been one of the most insensitive things the idiot could've said. We had a ton of New York students at BU and I'd say that about 45% of that class was from that area. The room was pretty full, so there was a very good chance that a few people in there were somehow connected to it. Add in the fact that by that point, people knew that two of the planes came from Logan Airport, it was just a ridiculously stupid comment to make.

And who doesn't love Andre the Giant? I wouldn't be surprised if he was somehow running around in this New Guinea crater.

I don't think they exist.

I'm no so sure how well they draw for a monday night game, but opening week is always a zoo.

If it's this weekend you're talking about, feel free to stop by the shrader day festivities. It's the worst possible way you can spend your time.

I couldn't even identify something as a Nickelback song if I heard one, but I still know that they suck.

Was Gause the WR that a lot of people here were crazy about?

And the complete broadcast when they have their Hockey Day In Canada event. That's always a fun one.

I'm assuming he doesn't have the slightest clue where Winnipeg is, but since it's a Canadian city and Buffalo's on the border...

Has anyone other than Sanborn been getting any time in on long snaps?

The Robert Lewis Stevenson one is great. Anyone who throws a good joke into their will is good in my book.

I'd much rather see depictions of some sort of hell for robots. That would at least get a catchy theme song. Edit: Oh crap, that's my avatar on Sabrespace. Oh well. I WILL DESTROY YOU! I remember reading a story on these advancements something like 3 or 4 years ago. I wish I could remember where I saw it (I thought it was here). The small corners of houses with charging stations should work out really well, but good luck with testing the long term health implications if they try to go more widescale and make things work just about everywhere.

I've only seen the tv spots and I'm left with a great big WTF. I have to wonder how many people that really brings into the theaters. Sure, I could just look it up on the internet, but most of the time the ads don't leave me curious enough for that.

Did it remind you of Office Space since they constantly mentioned it in the trailer? The ads I've seen are so busy mentioning "from the makers of Office Space" that I've never gotten a feel for what the movie is about at all. I get the same reaction from all the ads I've seen for "9". It's nothing but flashy graphics and nothing about the movie itself. I'm glad Mark starts these threads because it's usually the only place where I actually find out what these movies are actually about.

$$$ Vs (OLN at the time) offered more money and a bigger schedule than ESPN.

.

Killed the franchise? Wasn't it even alive anymore anyway?

Call me crazy, but even if I'm doing nothing wrong, if cops start asking me questions and telling me to stop something, I don't react by punching one of them in the face.

Nevermind the media, what about the majority of the owners in the league (like, say, the one who did hire Donahoe)?

Us out of towners don't get any of the info. Is Hardy even active yet? The article mentions using Lynch's spot at the start of the season to keep Jenkins as a possibility, but isn't using Hardy's slot just as likely still? I never have figured out the rules for injured players.

Great, recruit from this board.

Run the show anyway, but digitally replace the guy with some crazy cartoon character. Instant ratings.

Well that seals it. They're well on their way to conquering the auto industry. It's only a matter of time now.

But they do see it. So they know about the money, but still do nothing about it? That seems like way too much thought for a stupid commercial, especially after the caveman and gecho commercials pretty much put it all right out there. And they always seem to come on when during a show that I actually want to watch. Usually I just walk out of the room for a few seconds during commercial breaks, but I always run back in to mute the tv whenever any of those ads come on. They have to get just about every musical style into one of those ads, don't they? They're single handedly making me hate all music. Thanks a lot free credit report that isn't actually free.

With that paycheck, I don't think it really bugs him all that much. He could've stayed in Buffalo and lost just as many games, but all while making a lot less. Looking at the original post in this thread, leaving definitely did pay off for Clements.
