  1. That is precisely the way I would describe the second-best team in the world- right behind the one that has not won a championship in 103 years. The best team in the world is 19-9-1 with two goalies with ~.930 SV%
  2. Fair enough, but that I do not see. I see someone trying to say my opinion does not matter. Hallelujah!
  3. Not calling him out, just talking to him the way he talks to me. Most of my information comes from people I have talked to that have played the game at the professional level, and that is what I used to shape my opinion while I watch the game. There are many people that agree that football is taking a turn for the worse when it comes to professionalism and playing clean. You are making a big deal about me making comments about football, yet you do not seem to disagree with me about Harrison and the way he tackles. No sir. I do not think that I know it all, but that is the kind of negative perception placed upon certain people when they comment on things others do not like the specific person talking about. Me, NFL players, the commisioner, and owners. You are the minority that does not think James Harrison is a dirty player. He is there with Albert Haynesworth, Ndamukong Suh, Richard Seymour, Rodney Harrison, ect. I am not saying NFL players should not hit their opponents hard. I am saying they should do it within the rules and not intent on ruining another player's career. That is how James Harrison plays and it is becoming more prevalent in football.
  4. Let me ask a serious question then. When some of you played football, how did they teach you to tackle? Saying someone cannot comment on the unprofessionalism in the NFL in regards to tackling because they have never played football is a nonsensical argument. Players have gotten to be thugs like the NBA. Also, football is a team sport. Going for the "big hit" does not necessarily mean you will get the guy down and you can almost bet on a penalty. Look at the number of broken tackles in the NFL and NCAA football for that.
  5. I know this because I have talked to someone that works very closely with the NFL. They have been taking more cheap shots as an attempt to get on the highlight reel. I play sports and I am an aggressive and competitive person on the field. I would love to lay some people out, but that is not acceptable and it is not even tolerable. Go ahead and justify James Harrison's style of play. Please tell me how that is playing football like a professional.
  6. Yes, yes. Answer all of the questions. Do not spend time thinking about one. Answer all the ones you are positive of and then go back and look at the ones you skipped again. More often than not, you will get it looking at it a second time. If not, there are usually two obviously wrong answers and from there you can make an educated guess. If you are truly in a bind, figure out which letter option you have the least guesses on and go with that one. If you only have a few 'C' answers, guess 'C' for an unknown problem.
  7. Playing the game does not mean you are an expert on professionalism in the NFL. I do not respect people who do not respect me. And I have asked Rainman a question seriously and respectfully and only got a douche-like answer. Technique only, eh?
  8. You are under the impression that I am just a petulant young teenager, so I am not letting you forget that. Clueless? I know a great deal about the sport. Thank you very much. Kind of like making up an arbitrary figure like HUNDREDS. People that celebrate after they do something their job requires them to do is being a douche. Fist-pumping and dancing because you blocked someone from sacking the QB is retarded if you are on the offensive line. How do you know I do not have "relationships" with professional players? And what experience do you have playing professional football? Puh-lease. Fair enough and I will concede that point. But in no way, shape, or form are you an authority on the NFL. Why do you think you are? Because you have suffered through more Vikings seasons than I have been alive? I think I would rather listen to Skip Bayless.
  9. I will see your Steve Hutchinson and raise you a Desean Jackson: And I am pretty sure if I search through Vikings and Seahawks plays, I can find Steve Hutchinson acting like a douche. Ha. Really?
  10. I agree. There is no such thing as quiet professionalism in football or basketball. Tebow is just rubbing people the wrong way (so to speak), but what he is doing is not necessarily harmful. People like Plaxico Burress and Marvin Harrison are problems in that they forget where they come from (or they remember it too much). They act like thugs and think they are above the law. Players like them forget younger people from their neighborhoods follow what they do very closely. You are just perpetuating the stigma and not doing anything to appear as a positive role model. You are just sending the message that if you have a millions of dollars, the world is yours.
  11. And special teams yesterday. Thanks to Tebow, Prater only had to kick a 59-yard FG to tie the game and then a 51-yard FG to win it. I love that Dilfer analyzes QB's and Matt Millen covers the NFL draft. They really knew what they were doing when they were active. Fair enough, but I do not think anyone- on either side of the issue- should be pushing their views onto millions of people that want to watch the Super Bowl.
  12. I think he is a genuinely religious person and that's fine. More power to him. What I do not think I like is how he uses his influence among young people to push his religious beliefs. He and his mother were stupid to make that anti-abortion commercial. Your job is to play football, not peddle whatever personal opinions you have. There are many kids that idolize these guys who will get behind anything they say or do. I also feel this way about the guys that act like morons on the field. What was Suh thinking when he stomped on that guard's arm? What kind of message does James Harrison send when he makes a late hit on a quarterback, intending to knock the QB out of the game? You are teaching kids how to tackle charging with their helmet, not going around the waist like they should. They want to learn how to play like the professionals. Anyways, back to the Tebow hatred- I do not personally hate him. I'm getting annoyed with ESPN slobbering all over his holy nuts though. He is not a good quarterback. In fact, his completion percentage is like counting down on New Year's Eve. Why do I hear more about Tebow than I do about Rodgers or Brees? Why does Tebow get more attention than Tom Brady? Do people think they are making a pact with their god by talking about Tebow's "ability" to make fourth quarter drives? He is no John Elway!!!!
  13. Very nice bow, let me know how it fairs against big game. I have not had a chance to go out yet because of school, but I am hoping to do some hunting over break.
  14. I have a cousin there and she said text, email, and Facebook alerts were sent out to students about shots being fired on campus. It started outside of one of the dining halls and a police officer was shot dead. One suspect has been apprehended but another is at large. More gunshots are being reported near a drillfield near the center of the campus as another person has been pronounced dead. Supposedly it was just a routine traffic stop that started this.
  15. What a crusty old asshole. That is really disappointing because he was so funny on Conan O'Brien's show before the flight.
  16. I do not know if I will ever try another Sierra Nevada beer. They are too sugary so they seem like a glorified Mike's Hard Lemonade. Not to mention the two I tried have more than 300 calories. My family received some Alaskan Smoked Porter as a gift. I do not know where exactly to find this beer because it was shipped from California, but you need to try it if you can get your hands on it. Maybe one of the best beers made in America.
  17. What does this mean?
  18. I love Fowler's and Herbie's reactions. Also, it is not the first time he has done this:
  19. What else could possibly stop him? Maybe an inhibitor chip. Perhaps the Prime Directive. Or simply a case of procrastination.

    Gun Talk

    Beaver, That is a pretty sexy HD gun. If you do not mind, can you tell me an approximate cost for all the upgrades you did here or in a message? At least an approximation of the extended mag, flashlight, and iron sight. Also, what made you go with iron sights over ghost rings or a bead sight?
  21. To hell with PSU students. I cannot believe the sheer amount of retards there. Paterno is on his death bed so there is no sense in sticking him in jail. I hope they take his win record away though.
  22. He can go ###### himself. I will drop off a care package for him containing a dildo, latex gloves, lube, and anything else you might suggest.
  23. That is what is so incredibly screwed up about this whole story. So many people witnessed Sandusky raping little kids and did nothing, What is even more ######ed up is that Sandusky knew people were looking at him. This leads me to believe he either wanted to be caught and no one did anything or he just continued on because no one did anything. It is not exactly shocking that his next move was to start pimping the kids out. He was probably calling donors saying "Yeah, seriously. You can have sex with these kids right out in the open in front of everyone. I really did not believe it either until after the twenty-fifth time." At any rate, this all happened in the past and Joe Paterno has been so successful winning all those championships. Not even sure why it is even an issue now... /sarcasm
  24. Did you use the contact info provided at the bottom of the page?
  25. I do not know much atall about the Marines' uniforms, but I have never seen any of their aviators with wings on the right side. Is there a larger file of the image?
