  1. You forgot the most intellectually stimulating one of the bunch... Ahh, nothing trumps this one...well, except, "Bettcha my dad can beat up your dad"...but we don't want to go there, because that might somehow be interpreted as an attack on someone's family...
  2. Yeah, but can your dad beat up my dad? I bet if we start a thread on this our fellow TBDers can help us answer this question!
  3. You know Sue, you're right. At first I thought that you were simply being lazy and not looking for the answers to these questions yourself. After seeing your responses to this thread I know realize that you simply lack the ability to think rationally. It is this inability to think rationally that leads you to come here looking for help. I apologize for the misunderstanding. I do have a question for SDS though. Since Sue can't figure these things out for herself and needs help, could we set up a njsue homework board to help her out? Maybe we could work something out with her college so that people who help her often enough can get honorary degrees or college credits? If we could do this, then everybody wins! Yay! And don't forget to make me feel like I'm making a difference andClick For Cans!
  4. Sue, what people tire of isn't that you asked a single question...but you constantly ask questions that are, frankly, easy to find the answer to if you put in any effort whatsoever. I think the problem you're encountering is that people feel you're not even making an effort. You're going to get these types of responses every time because people can't stand it when other ask for help if they perceive that the person didn't even attempt to solve the problem themselves. And lastly, what does the fact that you’re a female have to do with anything?
  5. Simply, no. A win tomorrow is expected. Unless we can learn to win on the road, it doesn't matter. If this team somehow manages to not only win tomorrow but on the road the following week against the best team in the AFC (with apologies to the Steelers), I might change my position...but that's a pretty farfetched scenario.
  6. By "wrinkle" I hope he means we can put together long, clock-eating, drives that end in TDs. Because I have yet to see that this season.
  7. While I don't think we've suddenly become a great team and turned the corner...I do think we'll win this game, particularly if we can get the elements to play a factor. Our special teams might be the best in the league (damn, when's the last time you could say that, probably when Bruce Dehaven was here) and our D is one of the better units (if only we could cause some damn turnovers)...as long as our O doesn't hand them the ball we can, and should, win this game.
  8. Sue, maybe people are being jerks to you in how they respond...but they do have a point. A simple Google search of "currency exchange", which took all of 5 seconds, brought up a number of sites that can do the job. So the question is, why do you post these types of questions when it's easy to do the job yourself and find the answers? I'm not going to lecture you, but I will say this, that education you're getting will be useless unless you also have problem solving skills to go along with it...and problem solving doesn't mean asking others for help the moment you don't know how to do something.
  9. It would be interesting if the machines on which these errors took place were Diebold machines...considering the comments that their chief executive made about, "helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year." What a fiasco that would be.
  10. I'm guessing that most on this board (and in America) would be very surprised if they ever picked up a copy of Thomas Jefferson's "Notes on the State of Virginia". Somehow I'm guessing that most probably have no clue what he believed. But don't try to educate people on the history of this county, they don't want to hear it. They simply want to believe that their core beliefs were the same as the "forefathers"...as if the founders this country all agreed with one another on the proper way to do things... I mean, just look above, someone trying to say the "forefathers" wrote the pledge? What a disgrace. Next thing I'm going to hear is that George Washington was elected democratically by the people...
  11. I swear half of your 10k posts simply say, "pick up a history book". Any one in particular? Or are they all in agreement on the "facts"? Hell, you act like our understanding of the entire history of the human race is set in stone. This couldn’t be further from the truth as our knowledge of the past is ever changing as a constant battle is being waged about the “facts” and the meaning of those “facts” by historians the world over. But I guess you’ve chosen your particular history to believe in and anybody that doesn’t see it the way you do should “pick up a history book.” So again I ask, which all-encompassing history book has it right? I took enough history in college to come just shy of a double major (though I did minor in it) and I never found just two history books that agreed on everything, much less any type of consensus from historians about the past. This response has nothing to do with the Bush/Hitler thing btw, it’s just a general observation of your responses to anything you don’t agree with. Then again, I'm sure you'll just call me some name and attach "liberal" to the back end of it in an attempt to discredit anything I've said...
  12. No Butters?!?! Bah!
  13. We've lost 5 games in conference already. There is no chance of winning a tiebreaker for the WC with 7 losses when 5 of 'em are in the AFC (assuming don't lose anymore in conference games). If this team has any shot at the playoffs they can only lose 1 more game this year. So, no, we have no chance at the playoffs unless we suddenly turn into a powerhouse team like the Pats or Eagles.
  14. I Guess I'm the only one who doesn't love this move. Vincent is an excellent CB...maybe he'll be an excellent S, I don't know. Even if he is I prefer to have my excellence at the CB position. McGee is an average CB right now. He gets beat more than anybody in the secondary. Is he better at CB than Reese is at S...perhaps, but again, if I have 3/4 of a strong secondary, I prefer my weakness at S, not at CB. This doesn't even take into consideration if Vincent will be able to pull this off midseason without some growing pains. I hope I'm wrong and this works out, but I'm of the opinion that the D is fine and any tinkering with it will only cause problems.
  15. This is the route I went. I just bought myself an authentic Moulds jersey on Ebay for 46 bucks...55 including shipping. And yes, it had tags and I've compared it to an authentic jersey a friend of mine bought from NFL.com and it's the exact same.
  16. This is exactly what is wrong with this country right now. "Our way" vs. "their way"...how about doing something good for the country instead of these petty politicians and their corporate masters looking out only for themselves? I hope whoever is elected president works with congress in an attempt to do something worthwhile instead of just stonewalling the opposition.
  17. It’s unfortunate that either of them will win. But from the looks of it, it looks like it’ll be Kerry.
  18. Classic internet defense move. Nicely played. Take it off topic because you have no answer. Yeah, he doesn't have a Jr. at the end of his name, which makes a difference in this discussion how?
  19. "Don't let the smoking gun be a mushroom cloud." - Pres. George Bush Jr. Yeah, that doesn't sound like a scare tactic to me!
  20. Exactly. Think of them as you vote for anybody but Bush. After all, he’s the guy that lied and used scare tactics in order to get approval to send them over there.
  21. If people were fair weather fans and bandwagon jumpers they wouldn't be on this board passionately talking about their team. Everyone here is supporting their team, everyone just chooses different ways of doing it. I'm not telling the super-positive people to think my way, I'd appreciate it if those people would stop telling me to be positive. Anyway, I am positive...positive this team is one of the worst in the league and positive that I'm not going to sit here and tell them "nice effort" when their play is pathetic. They deserve to be ripped into, they deserve to have the fans on their backs pressuring them to get better. They're big boys, they can take it.
  22. I thought you were going to say, "...America loses". Though I suppose I'd agree with your statement too.
  23. Pat...he produces and plays, Jennings does neither. Jennings reminds me of that joke from Annie Hall, two old women are talking, one says, "the food at this restaurant is terrible!", the other replies, "yeah, and the portions are so small!"
  24. I liked the use of Adams at the goal line...the more beef you can get down there on the goal line the better. I was also impressed on WM’s second TD when Adams not only blocked the DL in front of him, but moved to the second level and put a hit on the LB as well. Nicely done. As for Bannon, he seemed to pull pretty well, but I don't think there are any long term permanent plans to use him on the Oline...but I guess we'll see. I do like the fact that MM and the staff aren’t afraid to try some different players elsewhere to see if they can improve the team. As for putting the "best" players on the field in the secondary, I agree...but at the positions they are the best at. I don't think that McGee is a better CB right now than Reese is at S....but I know that Vincent is a better CB right now than he would be at S. Maybe with a training camp under his belt that would change, but asking Vincent move from CB to S midseason is just asking for game changing mistakes to be made while he learns a new position. Not to mention, I think people are way overrating McGee as a CB right now. He does seem to have a nose for the ball and my be our biggest ball hawk in the secondary, but that being said, he also gets beat more than anybody else in the secondary. My basic philosophy on the D is why mess with it? Once Vincent gets back (and assuming we don’t lose anybody else to injury…) our D should be dominant.
  25. He wasn't caught from behind because he is too slow...he was caught from behind because he was attempting to cut it inside because a WR missed a block and he wasn't going to be able to get the first down by running to the sideline.
