Likely a good point. Knowing people like JJ are involved, I'm not expecting much.

Amen, brother.

Maybe he is... Linky

Best thread all month.

Bingo. I don't doubt his ability to rush the passer, but opposing offenses would probably have a field day designing ways to isolate him in coverage and expose that weakness.

Good stuff, thanks much.

That sounds fair enough to me.

Pure gold, man. I look forward to these every year.

...or Poz, or Corto, or Harris, or...

nod, you had the guts to say what I and many others here believe as well.

I thought the new strength & conditioning guys were supposed to take care of all these injuries?

*yawn* Who?

Yeah, I miss Staba's reports, especially of the wings. Good stuff. Nice to see he's still writing -- that was a nice piece in the Times. Thanks for the heads-up, SJBF.

Seriously, I can't understand this either.

So what do you all recommend for a good bat these days?

Just finished a batch of lager last night. Can't wait to get at that one. Mmmm....

Cool, good to know. Get well.

Jesus, I'm getting old.

Saw it yesterday. Interesting flick...enjoyed it, but thought it tried to do a little too much. Cool idea, though. Interesting trivia: The actress who played Mal (Cobb's wife) won the Academy Award for Best Actress a couple years ago for her starring role in "La Vie en Rose", a movie about the famous French singer Edith Piaf. In Inception, the music they played into the headphones to send each other messages is a song by Edith Piaf...

Hope everything went well!

So this is Barry Brady/FFS's new handle, I see...

Ah man, too bad. He will be missed.

I was at a Sabres game once as a kid, with my stepfather. We had seats pretty close to the ice, somewhere behind and off to the side of the penalty boxes. During the game, a player shot the puck around behind the net, but it was up high on the tall glass. Since the glass along the rest of the ice is shorter, the puck eventually flew around the glass and off into the stands. It ended up hitting my stepfather in the shoulder. It was a rocket, and it hurt him pretty good. If I had been sitting in his seat instead, that puck would have nailed me right in the side of the head. Game over.
