  1. Which part is ignorant? His pushing for the 80 man roster limit, or his Broncos giving an offer to Smith. Again, I hope his condition doesn't deteriorate and I wish his family well. It's a terrible disease; hopefully it will be cured soon.
  2. While I hope he manages this disease well and we find a cure for it, as a Bills fan, I can't consider him a "great owner." He was the driving force behind the 80 man training camp roster limit to 'keep costs down' and immediately tried to use those savings by signing Bruce Smith to an offer sheet. As a human, prayers go out to him and his family. As an owner, #### him.
  3. It almost seems like a bad skit: 1. Launch non-casualty inducing rockets into Israel. 2. ??? 3. Celebrate running single state in the Holy Land.
  4. Looks like Bret Stephens is on NJ's list now too. From today's print version of WSJ: "All of which, as I say is a blessing for Israel and her supporters. If you must have a nemesis, better it be a stupid one. If your adversary has an undeserved reputation for moderation and sincerity, better that he should give his own extremism and hypocrisy away. If you are going to be the object of mass protests and calumny, better to be hated by the worst than by the best. Israel's enemies continuously indict themselves, whether or not the rest of the world has the wit to see it." The full article is here: http://online.wsj.co...sing-1405380450
  5. You taking about football or soccer now?
  6. Not necessarily, as you have already conceded above.
  7. Putting time back on the clock is clearly in the refs' heads. Personally, I find the way soccer handles the timeclock to be silly, but I follow the game (at least for the WC) well enough to know pretty much how much time will get added and when it's going to end. And when you get right down to it, in either sport you pretty much know when the last play is going to be. Even though the watch may read 0:00 (or 45:00, as the case may be) once that 'last' play starts they both let it run to completion.
  8. ONLY if the play hasn't started, there was no defensive penalty on the play, and there was no touchdown on the play (necessitating an extra point provided you weren't in OT). (There's a couple of more obscure rules that will allow another play as well, but you get the gist.) And you might be at game over prior to 0:00 (realistically) being on the clock due to the 10 second runoff on an offensive penalty w/ clock running under 2 minutes to play. And there's never been a decision to add a second or 2 (or 4) back onto the clock at the end of the game due to the refs deciding the play was dead prior to the clock running out.
  9. Exactly. Her answers are embarrassing, but they'll be old hat in 2 years and anyone pointing out how embarrassing they were will just be piling on and mean spiritedly picking on the girl.
  10. Why are you still getting tats w/out Krit? Aren't all the kids all about Krit now?
  11. She has, but I'd expect she realizes that the embarrassment would happen at some point, and now she'll be able to say in 2 years that it's all old news and what difference does it make now anyway and her worshippers will love her for it and those on the fence will decide she's just being picked on. Kind of like how Lazio attacked her when he walked up to her podium and handed her paper.
  12. Wait, are you talking about Reagan, Clinton, GWB, or Obama?
  13. No account but couldn't have taken more than a couple of minutes for the whole process. The whole thing was very smooth. Thanks again.
  14. They seem to think so.
  15. Well it would probably make the US men's soccer team stronger, so that's something.
  16. Better to murder a tree (or several forests, as it may be) and save a child than to murder a tree (where'd you think they get the wood for the cutting boards) AND allow a child's senseless death.
  17. But if even just ONE CHILD IS SAVED by this reinterpreted regulation, then this ban on evil wood will have been worth it. Also, the 'little guy' isn't the one that can afford fancy wood boards and cultures and the like. The 'little guy' is the poor soul buying a scrap of artisanal cheese with his food stamps. HE doesn't have a say in the POISONS the fat cat puts into his meager diet and Iis fortunate to have THIS administration watching out for him; we all KNOW nobody else will. (Damn, this Gatortard stuff is pretty easy to write. )
  18. Well, duh. How else would they get so big?
  19. Let's hope so. Bills could use an All-Pro special teamer.
  20. Nah, he'd still have (likely quite entertaining, I might add) discussions w/ Birddog & EII. But his quantity of posts would be severely decreased.
  21. But it works on StarTrek. Maybe Marx was just ahead of his time.
  22. Not even taking into account Marx totally missing the rise of the middle class.
