Special K

WOOOO HOOOOOO!!! Now that's more like it!! I hope that Billups injury looked as bad on TV as it did in person. Although I don't wish serious injury on anyone(just enough to keep him out of the series ), obviously that would be a huge break for the Magic. He's been a matchup problem for Orlando for years. In reference to my initial post, someone please explain to me how 'Sheed can get away with that much jawing with the officials without picking up a T?? I'm glad to read that there are many anti-Piston people out there--keep those anti-piston thoughts going for game 4 on Saturday!!!!

I know I'm a bit biased because I'm a big Orlando Magic fan, and maybe I'm just venting a bit, but this team is awfully full of themselves for a team who has only won one championship in their current run of success. Not to mention that the one championship was against a dysfunctional Lakers team who came into the series overconfident. The bump, they push, they elbow, they get in players faces, and they get in ref's faces and they get away with it. Theo Ratliff is even trash talking--and I was thinking..."dude, I didn't even know you were still in the league..STFU!!" The malfunctioning clock at the end of the third quarter of game 2 and the allowing of that 3 pointer was a horrendous call reminiscent of calls that have gone against the Bills in the past. Going to the game tonight. Here's to hoping the Magic can get back into this series with a win tonight!

I think I recall seeing him wearing #81 in a picture in one of the mini-camp stories.

Exactly. Stamer, Haggan, Wire, and Aiken---all gone. That's arguably the four best ST players last year. Plus, day 2 picks are expected to contribute on ST if they want to make an NFL roster anyway.

I said that like two posts ago.

The new Coy Wire.

Here comes the trade up. Right??

Trade up for Sweed or Kelly.

How about Special McK! just kidding!

this would be my strategy, except I like Leodis McKelvin better than DRC.

It would be nice if the NFL could put in place a standardized rookie draft pick pay scale like the NBA has. Of course, the trade-off would have to be that rookie contracts would have to be much shorter(3 years in the NBA) allowing players to become unrestricted free agents sooner. But in such a violent sport as football, the players association would block any attempt to put a system like this in place. I agree with your sentiment, though. Its crazy that blockbuster contracts in 2005 have become undervalued contracts in just three years(Urlacher and Chad Johnson situations) because of rookie deals like this.

Honestly, I think the Seattle game will be a very important one to win. The Bills have gotten off to such slow starts the past few years, and with an @Jacksonville game looming in week 2 starting off the season 0-2 would be a difficult hole to dig out of in the tough AFC.

Exactly. Trading JP would just create another hole the team would have to fill, presumably with a draft pick, since it appears none of the veteran backups have caught the team's eye. So basically it would be trading a veteran backup for a draft pick to select a rookie backup--why do that?

Just wanted some opinions as to which site is the best, safest, etc. site to play poker....pokerstars.net or fulltiltpoker.net. Thanks.

Nothing beats this classic Miller Lite commercial:

OK, it was a girl who was attacked by a hawk while on a field trip to Fenway. Red Sox nation sees this as a positive omen because the girl's name was Alexa Rodriguez. Could this be the start of a new Yankee curse? http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-f...p&type=lgns

Me too!

I had WVU over Duke, but I have Xavier over WVU in the next round. However, if I could change that pick to WVU, I would.

Not doing that well because 3 out of 4 of my upsets didn't pan out.....hoping for a big comeback in the later rounds.

Ted Wahington James Lofton is a close second for me.

Apparently, a new trend among rich people is to own cats that are a cross between African Leopards and domestic house cats. Man these things are kind of freakish-looking, and according to the article, they cost $22,000. I really don't get the purpose of this, but I hope one of these cats has a freakout and goes all "Sigfried and Roy" on one of these rich a-holes. http://shopping.yahoo.com/articles/yshoppi...he-window-22000

I thought Paris Hilton and Britney Spears already had that covered.

One man owns the title of the top four stupidest rap names: 1. Diddy 2. P. Diddy 3. Puffy 4. Puff Daddy I'm also not a big fan of the name "Chingy"....it sounds more like a medical condition than a name.
