Dareus isn't worth a fifth of his salary.

Aikman and Buck.... Streisand and Diamond would make for a more interesting duet announcing NFL games.

So, today is the anniversary of Keith Moon's death. Just one of those things I never forget.

Didn't think I'd like the drummer/commentator guy, but did, and he had a couple nice thoughts along the way too- it makes sense, Moon was interpreting everyone's role in the entire song as he played along... he totally did. I also liked the line about having a 106 piece band, 102 of which were K. Moon haha. )

Well, Vegas has us at 200-1 to win the SB, second only (in the bad way) to the Jest at 1000-1
We're not even tied for second... Jags, Browns, 9ers, Rams, Fins, Lions, Bears... and more, all at 100-1

always got a kick out of the laughing Spaniard (Dias?) at the end of Fool. There are a lot of underrated songs on Thrill. Brooklyn felt like a hauntingly lovely ballad. Always wanted to ride along with the midnight cruiser, and kings had some good guitar work. That said, it's hard to put another one of their albums below it...
No, I like Can't Buy A Thrill a lot, but I think the next 5 are better.... at the very least, they sound more like 'Steely Dan' to me.
I think we're all circling the same drain on this one, haha.
It's like, I have so many bands I'd list before the Dan on my 'must listen' list... but then, when I'm actually listening to SD, I just go, 'yeah, these guys are just so fuggin' ... right' .... every time. Great damn band!
Aja.... smoothest( but still rock) album ever made.
My Old School.... sheeeeee.
Took Michael Douglas 9 years to catch up to the royal scam.
Acquired taste or whatever it was, I'm glad I got it. )

I love Royal Scam, too. You can't go wrong with any of their 1st 6, though I would place Can't Buy A Thrill at the bottom of those.
Only a fool would say that... is one of their finest, and the cover is classic, but Do it Again, to me, is this weird painful trudge that is so not like the best of their catalogue.

Awwwww bummer... just heard about the whole affair from this thread.
Such a fantastic array of fun/dreamy/cutting songs and albums. (I love how they have such a large contingent of 'haters' too haha- they must've been doing something right. )
-
I wouldn't be too comfortable if I was a bottom 1/3 player just cause I made final cuts...
I'd expect at least 5-7 of those players if not more to be replaced via others who got released from teams themselves. Have a feeling we may be seeing lots of signings and waivings throughout the season.
No doubt. This new final cutdown setup kinda changes the cut-down day celebration for a bunch of guys.
-
Thanks man...this looks promising
It kinda does actually. Some of the reviews say bland, and when I think hot dog chili sauce, I think 'double ground' on the beef should be about the first thing the author emphasizes, but the ingredients look close enough to right.
Ima hope this thread is where I find that elusive hot dog chili sauce recipe I've been looking for for decades now. )

What an engagingly stupid question

As a safety guy, Steve Freeman was my favorite on D. Joe Cribbs shouldn't count for this, but he was just too phenomenal in his day, and too many don't know who he is.
-
Nix is getting way too much bad credit. We looked more CFL than NFL before he got here. For whatever his faults, I'm sure the 'in house successor', aka 'share your GM job with this Whaley fellow' was Ralph's thinking.

I think Taxi has got to be my all time fave. I even throw it on on youtube from time to time.
-
Hundley single-handedly turned that UCLA program around. I'd be totally on board for a 3rd or less.
-
I prefer to think of them as a team who gives a lot of effort.
-
Looks like I'm in the minority here, but I could see it working. Let Stevie freelance into the soft spots, which could give Tyrod a bonus outlet when he breaks the pocket. Probably take several games to really come together, but might just work... surprisingly well.

Never- Can't stand the feeling of the car acc/dec without my input.
Plus, I have a fire-spittin' old ragtop- that and my GF's car are too much fun to drive. )

Drew Pearson
He was money
Pearson made 88 'The' WR number, much like 12 is 'The' QB number. Not sure about greatest ever, but waaaaay up the list.

Regarding rookie quarterback, Patrick Mahomes II and his three-interception practice on Monday, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said he will accept the occasional training camp pick as long as it serves as a learning experience. "It's important quarterbacks use (practice) time to . . . see what you can get away with in the offense," Reid said. "Interceptions, I get it. I want them to test the waters now so he gets to learn the parameters of this offense and what you can get away with on each route." Reid has said similar things about Alex Smith in the past. The Chiefs have encouraged Smith to be more aggressive with his decision-making during camp practice sessions to see what might work on a given play.
This all makes too much sense. I hope our current coaches have a similar philosophy. Ultimately I couldn't care less if our QB's throw a bunch of picks in TC/pre-season if they're testing the abilities of their offense along the way.
I wonder how much 'keeping up appearances' has come into play in the past- seems like we've had more than our share of timid QB play for... forever.

Wrong never added anything about TT in any thread that didnt need it. But cant talk WRs and TE without talking QB.
Cant talk defense being on the field so mich wothout talking QB and 3 and outs.
Nice work- why other people don't understand this kind of stuff is laughable.
Obviously the WR's are affected by QB play, and if the QB is leaving the D on the field the whole game, bad things are gonna happen.
I mean, really, the QB play affects the kicking game as well. Kickers miss kicks if the QB walks away leaving the ball on the wrong hash mark or yard line! Duh, why is it so hard for people to figure out!!!
I mean, think of it this way- if the water boy spills sports drink on a QB's hands, and his throwing hand is sticky, and he misses a throw- blame the water boy. It's the same as quarterbacking- the water boy is the quarterback of sideline hydration.
It's a machine, and it needs to work as one, and who is in charge of this machine? The Quarterback! So, of course the QB is responsible for flailing CB's, missed tackles, fumbled snaps, blown blocks, sacks, touchbacks, blocked punts, underproductive bees, global warming, and burnt toast.
Obviously.

Make my own pesto and alfredo... make my own red too, but really like using Pomi marimara as a base as well, if not more. 6 in 1 ground tomatoes are fantastic as well... and we're slowly going through some pesto from Cinque Terra.

i was more being sarcastic about the usual drivel we get by guys who know nothing about the team and mention players who aren't even on the team anymore or get the names wrong. I could not care less where people rank us prior to even playing a pre-season game.
Sorry if I came off harsh at ya- not my intent.
I have no clue what his rankings are, but I'd put us around the Bengals, ahead of SD and Washington

Monday hangovers
Dead & Company announce a fall tour!!!!!!
in Off the Wall Archives
Posted · Edited by BringMetheHeadofLeonLett
I saw them last fall in Portland-enjoyed the show. They did China Cat/Rider, Here Comes the Sunshine, and The Wheel, which was fantastic! and all I could ask for.
I was way too sober, though... girlfriend.... don't ask.
It was the first time I'd seen any of the incarnations since Jerry died- so, out of curiosity because the Portland venue is the basketball arena with no real chance for a parking lot scene, is there still a parking lot scene around the shows?
