That should be the last of your worries. It's raining cats and dogs.

Ok, story time. Each of us, willing to participate, will write a paragraph to follow the last paragraph of the story in the thread. Please keep politics and religion out of the story. Also quote the last paragraph in the post please. Robert Forapples walked along the canal. The sound of the birds chirping and the smell of lilacs in the air brought a soothing feeling over him. He couldn't help thinking about his wife and how she died and it stabbed him the noggin every time he thought of her. He continued on down the path of the canal trying to push the mischievous thoughts out of his headbone. His grandmother had always told him that the foul stench of his farts would someday lead to tragedy but he thought she was joking. He will never eat corned beef and cabbage again after what happened, never. It had only been a joke to dutch oven Eunice but it went wrong, very wrong. Suddenly the tears began to fall from his eyes and he had a sudden craving for Taco Bell bean burrito.

I hope the negative nellies will realize that the Bills passing on him was a good thing and that signing the big name FA's is a bad idea sometimes. The Bills brass were 100% right about avoiding him.

Name 6 guys the Bills won't draft, Alex.* *Unless Okung falls to them.

Before people freak out about this post I'm not saying that arm length is the end all be all of LT prospects I'm just saying it's a very important part of it. Link Arm length, hand quickness dictate OLT success Posted April 14, 2009 @ midnight ET By Nolan Nawrocki Many traits are required for an offensive tackle to successfully be able to handle edge speed - quick hands and feet, balance and natural knee bend. The one physical trait that is most often taken for granted, however, is arm length. Without good arm length, generally considered at least 33½ inches on the left side and preferably 34 inches, it is difficult for blockers to be able to handle inside counters and recover quickly to keep a pocket clean. PFW calculated the average arm length of every starting left tackle in the NFL last season, and it was 34½ inches. The average arm length of the Pro Bowl tackles in the NFC, all of whom were left tackles, was 33¾ inches, while the average of AFC Pro Bowlers, also all left tackles, was 34 inches. To overcome average arm length, offensive tackles must be very smart, understand angles and be technique-sound, which describes Titans All-Pro OLT Michael Roos to a T. That is why he can overcome having a league OLT-worst 32½-inch arms and only give up one sack, according to STATS LLC. Other factors in Roos' success that were cited by evaluators included good coaching and sound protection schemes, with Mike Munchak being regarded as one of the top OL coaches in the game. The knock on Bulaga is he's short armed at 33.25" arm length (average arm length being approx. 34"). From what I've read the best LT's have long arms. Here's a list for comparison of some of the LT's I could find. The information comes from the 2008 draft class. Jake Long 37" Branden Albert 35.5" Ryan Clady 36.75" Jeff Otah 35.33" Gosder Cherilus 36.25" The knock on Levitre was that he has short arms. His measure 32.25" That's why he changed to G in the NFL. Link “Great” Arm Length (35-plus inches) D’Brickashaw Ferguson, Jets: 35½ inches (2006) Ryan Clady, Broncos: 36 inches (2008) “Good” Arm Length (34-34 7/8 inches) Jammal Brown, Saints: 34¼ inches (2005) Jeff Otah, Panthers: 34 5/8 inches (2008) “Below Average” Arm Length (32-32 7/8 inches) Robert Gallery, Raiders: 32¼ inches (2004) Chris Williams Bears: 32¾ inches (2008) Eugene Monroe 34" Jason Smith 33.75" Michael Oher 33.5" Eben Britton 32.5" Oher seems to be doing well with 33.5" arms. The guy I have the Bills taking in the second round, Saffold, has short arms too at 33.5". Here are some other 2010 prospects; Bryan Buluga 33.25" Russell Okung 36" Bruce Campbell 36.25" Trent Williams 34.25 Anthony Davis 34" Charles Brown 35.25 Vladamir Ducasse 34.75" Jared Veldheer 33" Tony Washington 35.25" Jason Fox 34.5" Kyle Calloway 33.25" Sam Young 34.5" Ed Wang 33.75" Rodger Saffold 33.5"

I'll vouch for your being impaired, impaired for a long, long time.

It's legal to be topless in public in New York too, as long as it's not for entertainment purposes.

Thank you for that. Do you have a link to part 1 of that interview. I couldn't find a link.

That's facile. Don't be a dick.

One of my favorite BS plays was when he caused the Poorpiss center to commit a false start penalty when he looked up and saw BS standing over him at NT. I believe Smith said something like "Hello there." and grinned. Bruce played NT sometimes in the Bills system. So the multiple positions is a weak argument. What he said! I'd estimate 250.

Alright Duke!!!! Duke!!! Duke!!!! Duke!!! Duke!!! Duke!!! Butler had a great game and they deserve to be where they are. They had a great tourny. If that last shot had gone in it would have been a fantastic story, but it didn't.

C'mon, everybody knows that life on earth started because the evil lord Xenu blew up a mountain of aliens with nuclear weapons and life then evolved from their blown up molecules and that's what led to all suffering on the earth.

Why the hell are you doing work for the ex?

I did too and I agree. The it will never happen to me frame of mind is a tough nut to crack.

Even better!

McNabb would've been better than any of those QB's but that's not a dig too much because McNabb is pretty damn good.

Well, I'm rooting for Duke but if Butler wins it'll be cool for you.

MJ isn't physically addicting.

I don't buy his lack of computer skills for one minute. I think it's an act to use in court. I couldn't possibly have sent those emails or whatever, I'm completely dumbfounded by technology.

Thppptt!
