"A whole human life is just a heartbeat here in Heaven. Then we'll all be together forever." What dreams may come is one of my all time faves.

Criminal charges can be based on circumstantial evidence. Convictions are tough, but it happens, just sayin'.

Please please please let this turn into one last complete islanders cluster ######. Enough to distract both management and players for one more season.

As a non-racing fan, my best understanding from talking to the guys who race here (the track is less than a mile from my house, I could hear the race) is that what the kid did was so stupid it almost completely absolves TS of culpability.

Well, that will make my not voting for her a lot easier.

Darcy Regier is a Hockey Man... Garth Snow is a Hockey Man...

as long as he's not playing goalie.

Should have taken this picture 15 years ago. more: http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/11123289/nhl-tracking-los-angeles-kings-stanley-cup

I'm not saying they're not dangerous. In fact, I'm saying that they are currently employing "the most deadly idea in the history of mankind." We absolutely should take actions to try and stop them. I just want to make sure we don't sound like them while we do it. At the end of the day, 99.99% of the people on this planet only really want two things: to be able to provide for their families, and to give their kids a slightly better life than they had. The leader of ISIS sounds like a classic nutjob of the most dangerous kind, a charismatic nutjob. But is be willing to bet that most of the people taking up arms under his leadership would not have done so had they felt like they had a better option to provide for their families and give their kids a slightly better life.

Best golf at any given time I believe to be a debatable topic. 2000-2006 tiger is probably the best streak ever. But best golf career, that's indisputable at the moment. Jack had the best career ever, and even Tiger is a couple of years of great golf away from even getting his name in the discussion.

I can't wrap my head around this statement, but beyond it's patent falseness, this is exactly the kind of dehumanizing of the other that results in what we are seeing in Iraq. It's what Shi'a say about Sunnis. It's what Sunni's say about Americans. It's what Russians say about Europeans. It's what tutsi's said about hutus. It's what NAZI's said about Jews and Gypsies. It's what the IRA said about the Protestants. "The other is evil and our world will not be safe until the others are gone." Probably the most deadly idea in the history of mankind. I mean, you even used the word "savages". We've used that word before. It didn't end well for millions of people.

Grr.. Poor reading skills on my part. I withdraw my contention...

Crazy people have a really easy time recruiting to their cause when poor people feel they have no way out and no power other than violence. ISIS's existence is not Nouri al-Maliki's fault, but their current strength can be squarely blamed on him and his government's refusal to allow Sunnis to substantially participate.

Combine that with your news that they distillers are balls out making whiskey, we could see some solid price drops.

Of course murray's organization is full of cronies, haven't you seen the godfather?

That was my first thought as well :lol: My concern with Marrone is that the difference between the NCAA and the NFL are far more drastic than any other sport. Juniors are closer to NHL, NCAAB is closer to NBA, A and AAA are closer to MLB. There is almost nothing that transfers from one to the other in football, which is probably why only one two* men have been successful in both, and they both ran their college programs like Pro Teams. *As much hatred as I have for that slimball from USC, I have to recognize his success. I wonder if there's something to the fact that he and Johnson were both terrible human beings.

The jury is definitely still out, and I would be super happy to eat my hat and watch EJ become a top passer. Mine is a prognostication based on his college ball, his skill set, and his current development arc, certainly not last year's injury shortened season. Also, as stated earlier, since he is not an industrial equipment assembly process, nor is he created from HTML, I am not an expert. Just a keyboard GM. :) mostly my argument is that IF my assessment is correct, spending 2 first round picks on 1 wide receiver was a very silly move because without a better QB, it doesn't really matter how good everyone else is.

True. The top 8 are consistently there, and the top 16 (half) are the only ones with a shot. Bottom half qbs with playoff births are few and far between. By my assessment, we have a guy with a bottom half ceiling, 17-20th at best.

Great news!! Putin's food sanctions include Bourbon!! Ladies and gentlemen several million liters of the good stuff has just been abandoned. Prepare for a surplus.

Dropping bombs in Iraq. Is it that part of the decade again?

Not a death blow. Just makes it harder to get good. 12 teams make the playoffs.

If one of your criteria is x I completely ignore criteria z, y, g, r, and 7 in favor of making my point.

This elite word keeps getting tossed about recklessly. You need a top 12 QB to be in the hunt year after year. I'm not sure that equates to elite. Flacco and Wilson are top 12.

He's been consistent for 2 years. The guys you listed are all over the place. He is top 12 in the league.
