  1. Here's a totally crazed idea. Perhaps the AP or another media organization could come up with a couple of new awards: the NCDROY and NCOROY. (The NC stands for "Non-Cheater", of course.) The organizers could then, in good conscience, restrict the ballot to those rookies who didn't fail PED tests. And the voters could vote with clear consciences for whomever they thought deserved it from amongst the non-cheaters. And then the rest of us could decide for ourselves which set of awards we give less of a **** about.
  2. My personal candidate list for tuchus-probing is very, very short. Half-meter long Asian Swamp Eels were voted off on the first ballot.
  3. Hey, I've lived over 16 years in a $1M+ house! But I only have a HS education
  4. Leaving aside the question of who has the most "upside", Fitz is 27, Edwards is 26, Brohm is 24, and Brown is 23. Not a whole lot of age difference there. Any or all of them could play for another 10-12 years easy, if they can hack it talent-wise.
  5. Pretty dumb law, IMO. I agree with Supervisor Gage in that if you can't reign in your kids when they want a happy meal/toy, you are in for a world of hurt as they get bigger. I'm not crazy about McD's, but I do let my boys go once in a while. They share a happy meal, and enjoy playing with the cheap toy for a long time. You have to use some common sense as far as how much, if any, fast food to let your kids eat, based on their body types, metabolism, etc. My 7 yr old is 42 pounds soaking wet. Empirically, it doesn't seem like half of a small fries & some chicken nuggets every couple of weeks is enough to blimp him out. Likewise for his kid brother. Of course, they get plenty of exercise and usually eat pretty healthy stuff, so YMMV.
  6. Same thing I've been calling them for the last 15+ years: "Those Five Stiffs"
  7. And if you can't comprehend that there weren't any 1st round talent QB's in THIS draft after SB went #1, and to blow a #9 on a 2nd or 3rd rd talent would have been !@#$ing stupid, then I think YOU are the mentally challenged one. We will probably pick up a QB prospect in a later round, and if not then we may need to wait another year before getting our franchise QB. Newsflash: we weren't likely going to the playoffs this year no matter how many draft choices get thrown away on stupid reach picks.
  8. Sorry to hear that. You should have gone to a co-educational college!
  9. They should both be put down. And I don't mean the dogs.
  10. And now that poor beer can has chlamydia.
  11. http://www.xepisodes.com/southpark/episode...ed-Chicken.html Warning: NSFA (not safe for ANYWHERE!)
  12. I've been trying NOD32 on the wife's laptop, and I think it's better than Norton or McAfee.
  13. A few weeks ago I took my 3-year-old to the second-run theatre to catch a Saturday matinee, figuring that I'd probably have to sit through something lame like Princess & the Frog or Alvin the Squeakuel. Bless his little heart; He looked up on the marquee and saw the poster for "The Blind Side", got all excited and said "Papa! I wanna see the FOOTBALL movie!" So we got two admissions, three hot dogs & a big bottle of water -- for under $10. And the movie wasn't too bad.
