Michigan vs. Virginia Tech 2012 Sugar Bowl Live Thread

The Sugar Bowl takes center stage tonight, as the #13 Michigan Wolverines take on the #11 Virginia Tech Hokies. Both teams come into the game with stingy defenses, with VT being one of the top units in the country.

Facing that Hokie defense will be the twin 1,000 yard rushers of Michigan, quarterback Denard Robinson and running back Fitzgerald Toussaint.

VT comes in to the game as the first ACC team to make a BCS Bowl game as an at-large bid, but it doesn't come without controversy. Both teams were selected by the Sugar Bowl ahead of higher ranked teams like #7 Arkansas, #8 Boise State and #11 Kansas State.

But either way, a Michigan/Virginia Tech Sugar Bowl should be a good contest.

Enjoy!

Y-O
Thank you for not declaring first!
Third!!!
Don't worry Duke I will unban you in a few days.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

LOL

Oh damn it did not take.
People crack me up

Jeff Fisher has had many losing seasons as a Head Coach. We want WINNERS like Cowher, Gruden, and Billick.. Oh, what’s that? A HC never won a Super Bowl with 2 teams so we don’t want THEM either. Hmph. Ok so we want someone in the middle, a pretty good coach but not good enough to win it all..Aka mediocre. Just like this franchise has been for the last few decades.. Yup, sounds like a perfect match to me!

Maybe Ross made nice with Fisher so when he takes over the Rams it will be easier for us to trade for that 2nd pick.
That. Is. Brilliant!

I never thought of that.

Well it has always been a fact that FO's that know one another tend to make more favorable trades.

Not that there will not be bidding for the pick but all things equal it will make it be an easier deal to make for someone that already has a relationship of some sort.

Good thoughts there, that's possible.
Or just wisful thinking lol

I guess I’m in the minority but is the Dolphins job THAT unappealing? Gosh, trade up and get a QB then if you want one in place. I don’t get how STL or TB are better jobs than ours

Hes a STL guy. Its not always about the perception of a job.
I thought he was a west coast guy?

Other than the relation to his agent.

Well according to Mando so no.
Ah ok thanks for clearing that up lol

How about Ben Volin? I have his live twitter page up on my computer waiting for live updates and such. Is he reliable?

I think so. His sources is not a string of BS that he pulls from his ars.
volin i have respect for

He is actually a fan of the team, unlike omar who is a self-confessed ravens fan, and mando who doesn’t care about anyone but himself.

My bad. I checked and he is a Socal guy.
Wedo have other options though

Get a hot Defensive Coordinator. Oh but we need someone who is offensive minded.. Get a hot Offensive Coordinator.. Oh but we tried that with Cam Cameron so we can’t do that either.. Ok how about a hot college coach? Oh that’s right, we did that with Satan, can’t go that route..Can’t get Manning, he’s injuried, can’t get a 1st round QB cuz he’ll be Ryan Leaf.

All I’m saying is I wish people would stop looking back at things that happened and are over and done with when it comes to judging the decisions made for the 2012 Dolphins.. Gosh I hope some people here never stumble on a crack in the floor, they’ll be too scared to ever walk again

I think you have to look at each player, coach, whatever as an individual situation and weigh that person and that person only.

What if San Fran took the concept that college coaches do not make good NFL coaches? They might not now be one of the better teams in the NFL.

Hey

Gf is watching the Biggest Loser (F that show), so please keep me posted on this game until I can turn it on.

Best prospect in this game is VT’s David Wilson. FAST running back with great cutting ability and vision.

Dude you so need a man cave!
Also, she is not your GF anylonger!
Truth
I thought of that when you said that ealier today.
I still think SF would be an easy choice for Manning Earl. It reminds me of the Vikings/Favre situation

An elite QB away from a Super Bowl. In a weak NFC West. Now I agree it’s better to win it in a tough division for a challenge, which is why I scoff at head coaches that look for a team with a QB and great team ALREADY in place for them.

SF is what NYJ wishes it could be: a total ground n' pound offense that doesn't get in the way of its beastly defense
The Jets are the peferct example of what happens when you try and put a bunch of bad guys together in one locker

room. Now all this info is coming out about how the team fell apart due to riffs in the locker room. Maybe this will be a lesson for those that think going out and getting a TO and a Dez and stockpiling a bunch of guys like that is a good idea. That shit always blows up eventually.

It starts with the coach, and they have a genuine asshole in that role

He’s just a bully, and we punched them in the mouth last Sunday. Game. Blouses.

Yeah eventually every team begins to take on the personality of its coach!
well, chud seems to be a very upbeat guy
I am all in on that guy no matter what CT says.
Or Carmichael

Although I wonder if we shouldn’t have let TS go last year and try and get Rivera. Panthers fans really like him.

Yeah but you know those people in the Carolinas are not so bright.
lol, low blow there tex
LOL Duke knows I am just msessin.
Only down east...

we mountain folk is smarts!

Yeah I read this story about this place in the Carolinas called the Redneck Store.

I was so disturbed when I found out what the store was and that the towns people did not run it out of town. Makes me feel better about living in Texas where something like that would not be tolerated.

Where was that?
Somewhere in the Carolinas.

Seems that they sell KKK unis and the like. Real white trash pieces of crap it seems. They got sued by the black church that owns the building that wants them out but they have some long term lease deal. Well the church won today but the church members have mostly left the church due to the amount of death threats and such that they have received. The whole thing was shocking to me.

There are some really backwoods places out there

most normal people avoid those places.

Yeah this store was set up in an old theater. Still disturbing that they have not

been run off.

dsi game boy & wii!
But overall, the NFC is tougher with GB, NO, and some younger and tougher teams like ATL and DET

With Manning, we are basically guaranteed 4 division wins over the jets and Bills. We can hold our own against the Pats. And looking at our 2012 schedule, 12-4 is not only possible, but likely.

I'd be fine with Manning for a few seasons while we load up the rest of our roster and possibly groom a QB
Tannehill?
Tell me what you think of my mock draft

If we got Manning, that draft would be worth it.

Is it up?
Yes sir
saw it

Its a bit too front-7 heavy, we diont need that much up there, I would prefer a RT pick instead. Also loved the quick pick

We really need some pass rushers though

The Ta’amu pick depends on defensive scheme.

id rather leave wake and misi for now

And deal with that issue in FA or next years draft. RT is a more pressing need. Murtha could have solved it, but his injury does him no good. Jerry may be sufficient, but he is a better RG and could be carey’s replacement.

My deal is that free agent pass rushers are expensive

Free agent right tackles aren’t as expensive. Misi is not a good pass rusher and Wake is all we have. Odrick pitched in and picked up 6 sacks, but I don’t know if he can consistently rush the passer without outside help. Since my scenario didn’t include a QB, getting 2 potential studs at pass rusher makes our defense very tough. My favorite pick is Green. He’s EXACTLY what we need at TE.

i like green

And doubling down on pass rushers is a good idea, but we should go pass rusher, right tacklet and another pass rusher in the third if we do that. We should try to get a safety as well though.

Yeah, ABSOLUTELY a safety

That’s arguably our biggest hole right now.

In terms of pass rushers, Upshaw and Mercilus are my favorites

I want either Martin or Reiff at right tackle, and Mark Barron is my No.1 safety. If we wait until the second round for a safety, I’d be cool with Robert Lester.

how about markele martin or winston guy jr in the 3rd?
That could work

Here’s the big question: If Landry Jones declares, and he’s staring at us in the face when we’re on the clock, do you think we take him?

YES!!!

Moore to start, Jones in relief!

We could go RT in the second, but if Curry is there, we'd have to think about it

And while we need a safety, I still think Clemons and Jones can play effectively. Plus with Wake, Mercilus, and Curry getting to the QB, they won’t as big a liability. It’s like the anti-Ryan defense. He has good corners and lots of blitzes. We would be dangerous pass rush and easier coverage. Our zone might actually work if we could get to the passer.

whats up guys

Shoud be a good game. I got my eye on jayron hosley. He’s a very instinctive, natural corner. Plus he graduated from the high school I currently attend, so, I would love to see him here, but alas, we have bigger needs.

Hello dude
Hey duke
Hi Anish
Hey keith

when are you going to post your saturdays/sundays/mock draft? Love to see how the bowl games may change it, plus the fact that the draft order is now finalized

Thursday morning

Looking forward to giving the Dolphins a right tackle, which will cause a lot of people here to go into a seizure.

lol

I don’t think we need to spend a 1st on a RT anyways. I dnt reqally see i t as a premium position, levy adcock or nate potter would be sufficient in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. If we weren’t going QB in the 1st, id rather trade down and get dwayne allen inrthe back end of the 1st.

I'm prepared for it... LOL
hello young man
Hey tex

Hows it going

How school and such? You in S. Fl?
yeah, boca raton to be exact

Its all good, starts backup next week. Not much to do now that football season is over, and I’m no good at basketball, and i missed soccer tryouts.

Well just enjoy your time hanging out with friends and what not.
yeah, that i will
Enjoy these years while you have them.
yup

I know little kids who can’t wait to be my age though, but I would give anything to be 8 again. Miss those times, no worries back then.

Trust me you really don't have any worries now either. Its mostly percieved. You will understand

in 10 years or so.

well, we'll see then

But for now, it is what it is

Hopefully we'll have a QB by then
LOL Don't be that guy!
You really think i'll be around that long!
yes you will
Granda thinking amigo!
You will help us navigate though the next few SuperBowl wins for the Phins!
This is a realist speaking!
I believe, do you?
More Then you know Pal!
hell, if we dont have a qb in the next 5 years, im trying out myself

I’ll be 20 then and I just need to work on deep ball accuracy, going through progressions at an nfl speed ( I do it now at a JV speed) and pocket awareness.

Need not aply if your under 6-2!

Idk howe the exclamation mark got there

Seems so quiet

Im around.
yeah, but its only like me, you, duke and keith

Volin said fisher, chud and carmichael were the top 3 on NFLN, can’t believe gruden turned down total control though, not like i wanted him anyways.

I don't believe in the whole total control model any way and I wan that damn Gruden to stay the hell away

from my team. Chud all the way.

After all we must see whats best fer the team no!
I believe that to be Chud. Bring him home!
Puff the magic dragon for a mo!
yeah, but it just makes him seem like a douchebag
Whats that?
in this situation

A synonomous word would be asshole

Hay coach show me som speed & energy!

That all we can really ask from athleats!
Hello Beaver

Fingers X rite now for an agressive coach!
I wish I had gotten to know that guy just due to him being such a legend here.

I mostly read that he was insane.
finsx?

Yeah, him and husker are like marino and griese, way before my time, yet still legends.

LOL Did you know Finster or Fr8Train
yeah

I know both, loved fr8train’s rants, I was hoping to continue the tradition, but never had time. Finster was a bit negative, but still a good guy.

I have boths email. I need to hit them up and see if I can get them back in the mix.

Dave

You know I had visit the Phinsider for the game.

Sup dude

Welcome back!

Welcome again sir. Glad to see you have become a regular.
hello

Quick question: would you mind henne as flacco’s backup?

No thanks

If you don’t want, I don’t want Henne. I’d want a backup that can actually win a game or 2. Lol.

Meh, he would be a good backup

Hes a good qb, just lacks authority

Same personality type as Flacco

I like fire. You may remember a fellow by the name of Dan Marino?

Heres some guys that I once hung out with way, way back in the day-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkwD5rQ-_d4

Who is it Noah
That dude with the big boat?
Yes your buddy
same style of beard
Dude I can not grow a beard to save my life. Not a trait that is common among a certain race.
I can grow the Elvis porkchops , but nothing in the middle, I look horrid
Yeah I can not grow sideburns either.
Mine is all salt and pepper now
Just For Men
I dont like they way that came off, do I wont use it
Yeah I have the grey too but at least I still have it all.
I have half of it
Yeah another benefit of my racial make up. I wont loose my hair.
I would take that, Im fine without it though
I would not look good without hair. Its a look that black guys can pull off easier.
not me, Im a mutt so I look like crap anyways
LOL Your so harsh towards yourself.
awe are you hitting on me Texy Pooh, show me that nipple...Please
No and no. I thought we had a deal.
we did you show , I look ,and Alpha licks
What does that mean?
it means you're the whore
haha,Bingo, your riding bitch
Um ok. Glad you could translate.
I am the official ghetto/street translator..
Seems about right.
I can speak ghetto, how it be
what it do
I cant call it pimpin
hahaha

that’s like 80’s gangster lol

and his pets
or Jesus himself
I am still thinking of a name for Duke, not sure yet, I will get him one. Duke comes off a little harsh but he just needs a hug
OMG.. DO you all remember the guy from West palm about a year ago that kept getting into it with me, I always said I would give him a hug. He got so pissed. I was dying laughing at him
Who was this!?
I posted some songs for you earlier but I think you were off busy adjusting your new chaps that Dave sent for the big night.
I cant remember his name, I dont think he ever came back, I think he thought i was really going to give him a hug. I was just trying to be his friend, special friend
Tex look it up , you have the all the data dont you
I would have to know what post it was in.
Who? I hope he comes back now..
hey I'm here

you can all relax now

Oh thank the lord Jesus above!

you're welcome
Your a generous person Nick!
I try

how are you lol

Not too bad. And you?
I'm good

laughing at the Matt Flynn bandwagon

I cant beleave I didnt get more Rec'd for my post on Flynn and Greens. Hurt my feelings
didn't see em
just a dumb post I said I was going to write the night before on a thread, then I did out of bordem
Relax? If anything you perk people up!
that's because I have a great ass

lol

This confuses me
I'm not a girl

let’s just get that out of the way before we have another disaster lol

but I bet you would be a pretty one if wanted, A spinner type. LOL
I think I'd probably be an ugly girl

lol

I think I would be a hot chick, I would be a whore also, and have 3 kids from DR's and ball palyers and sit back and take my checks
LOL Thats a solid plan.
Superhead?

lol

HAHA , You saw that
She runs the music industry lol
Or ran it
ran through it
it ran through her lol
I watch the show on her, she seemed good at her trait
she didn't get that name for nothing lol
I would try her out, what the hell why not
it'll cost you lol
Not much I dont have a lot
lol then you don't get no play
'cause

I was about to start refering to you as Darlin’ Nicky from the Prince song.

Great song. I knew a girl named Nicky I guess you could say she was a sex ...hey wait minute your sure that was not about you Nick?
I can neither confirm nor deny those allegations
yes! I haven't used that in forever!
Did you get a pair of those chaps from "Alphas Assless Chaps-R-Us"?
I'm part owner
LOL You are responsible for the dildo section?
They are all exact replicas of myself

we are CONSTANTLY selling out

I guess people think they make nice key chain trinkets.
Hey

Nicky is in the house.

yessir

I totally got my first warning.. so proud lol

LOL it was not a real warning. I was very gentle with you vs. most.
The mobile app just said

“you cannot post a comment because you are banned”

So I thought I got shitcanned lol. Then I come on here on my desktop comp and get a happy little warning from you I was laughing lol

LOL No I would not ban you without talking to you first.
I knew it was coming eventually

lol I think I left a one word comment replying to somebody on a FP post.

“stupid”
Yeah its not the best idea you have had.
I've been trying to get warned lately

don’t know why. Seeing how far I can push you I guess lol

Um yeah thanks for that.
keeping you on your toes
I actually hate warning members. Especially the ones I know.
That's happened to me before, it goes away when i refresh

I don’t think that means a warning, I dont think I’ve ever had a warning, have I tex?

Let me check.
It actually just happened again like 15 mins ago

i was trying to post on this very thread

Yeah thats not anything we have done.
So just a glitch I presume
(I still have banning powers)
Really?

I thought you quit

technically

I was fired first.. but I pulled the whole “you can’t fire me! Because I QUIT!” but yeah, they fired me

Its funny how that happens when you don't show up for work.
I showed up all the time

just never did my job lol

Yeah you were like the Dane Cook of the site.
LOL

win.

Hes always on TV but I still don't understand why.
Yeah, I remember you never posted anything
I had nothing to write

I was not interested in writing about how much Sparano sucks at using timeouts, or how Henne is a moron, or how our “great” CB duo continues to disappoint..

our CB duo does need a makeover
they just have not improved

at all. Sean Smith is the same exact player he was as a rookie, except he might be worse. And Vontae is the same guy too. He’ll make a pick and make you think he’s gonna be a top 5er.. then he gets beat and makes you think he’s a rookie.

I dont like jumping places, but davis would be better at FS, and Smith would be better traded
I think we just need another stud CB

and bump each one down a peg on the depth chart. Smith as the nickel/guy-who-matched-up-on-TE’s and Davis as the #2 CB would be nice..

And all of that can happen if we can get a QB this year.. cuz then we can target the Honey Badger in the next draft

Mosul fired YOU?

Wow, but he let you keep banning powers?

he doesn't know

(shhh)

Don't believe everything you read. If that was true he would have banned me

like a dozen times just for the hell of it.

I gotta keep it a secret

I ban bacon randomly just to piss him off..

LOL He might never fully recover from the loss of Luck.
He's lost his mind

I don’t know if he’s watched another college player at all outside of Luck this year. He says some dimwitted shit about Griffin lol..

Then again.. he was hardcore against Cam Newton too.. hmm….

Yeah but according to him he is the go to guy on QB info.
according to him

and NOBODY else lol

I hope that Tannahill and Griffin both just blow it up because

he claimed they were both garbage.

Not a fan of Tannehill

but yes, Griffin is gonna be goooooood

extra o’s needed

I have. Also I have been banned from GGN not once but twice!
Lol
You do not have any.
Sticky nicky
how goes it dave?
Its going bud and your sir
I'm good

worked a double today, but the restaurant is so slow.. asked for a raise, they said business has to pick up first..

Don’t matter, I’m probably moving to west palm in a few months anyway

nice are you near there now
I'm in Sunrise

in Broward, west of Ft. Lauderdale. Where I would be moving is about an hour to an hour and a half north, up on Okeechobee Blvd.

got ya, Im in St. Douchie county I mean Lucie
oh my uncle lives in Port St. Lucie

nice area.. really quiet where he’s at

There is some good areas I guess, just alot of dumb rednecks here,IMO
I pass thru all the above mentioned parts on vacation in Florida every summer
PSL aint all bad, some good golf and people but alot of tools
that's everywhere though

majority of people suck

be careful anywhere east of 441 in Broward or Dade lol
To this point

I hardly recognize it down there anymore.

check out Weston

I work there.. it’s like a richie rich community.. and holy shit the eye candy is superb..

Yes

Off of 95? Correct?

Thank god

HEY nicky

lol what's up youngblood
Nothing much

You?

nada

Ah

Are we supposed to talk about the game during this thread? Lol

If you would like or tell us about your day or whatever else you so please.
Sure

I’ve been on vacation since December 7th and have to return tomorrow. Other than that I’m fine.

I took a VAca day today, got up tried to get out of bed, and said F*&^% that it was way to cold . crawled back into bed
Nice! Thats a long ass vacation.
damn

were you on vacation, or did you get fired lol

No I did not get fired (lol)

You can have it like that if you take your ass to work. Leave has to be used or they take it back in the Gov.

lol quality

what do you do?

Engineer

For a Govt. agency in Wshington DC.

what kind of engineer?

my brother is looking into I think computer engineering.. but doesn’t really know what it’s all about

With a specific emphasis on

Computers, flow control and high pressure steam delivery. Responsible for over 30 million in budgetary funds.

wow I have no idea what any of that is

but it sounds kinda cool lol

Where did you go to school for all that?

Broward Community College.
Lol

No.

Brevard Community College?
Devry?
"Hey, my kid just got into Devry"

“what’d he do, open the door?”

Hey!

That pull sign was hard to read. It took him a little while to stop trying to push it open.

that's step 1

if you don’t give up and go away, you are accepted to school

now it's Broward College

4-year accredited..

Ditto and knida smart also
It's pressure packed

And a lot of responsibilty but I love the job. It’s the Govt. I work for you guy’s in many ways :)

can you bring me a coke?

I’m a bit thirsty

Wait.

You don’t get a coke. You’ve been out of the kitchen way too long. Get back in there and start cooking!

you're not the boss of me!

I quit, remember?

He still owns your rights.
trade me
for a life size Henne poster, worht the same
Nope.

At least not until the trade deadline…then I can get 2 First rounders for you.

Better be to a good blog

or I’m blocking it

So far, the best offer is from

The Copper & Blue

Your kidding yourself Mosul. All the other blogs know hes a scrub.
You are crazy Nicky

In a whimsical way.

lol like Dr. Seuss?
Exactly

Nicky Hears a Who!

on first?
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish?
How Tex Stole Christmas
Oh the Places Nicky Can Go
Hop on Mosul
(Please don't)

I Can Read With My Nicky Shut!

Everybody Poops

and the much less popular Nobody Poops But You

lmao

Well played, sir.

Christmas does’nt come from a store, maybe Christmas perhaps means a litttle bit more

I want to see Wilson tear one off here
I want to see Denard Robinson come back home and play for the Dolphins

he’s a better version of Randle-El. He’s going to be a stud

Here we go, Pat WHite all over
no way

I don’t want him as a QB. But I watched him play in high school when he was at Deerfield Beach.. kid is a stud. I’d love to have him as a slot WR, because you could run a million tricks, and actually have a pass threat in a wildcat-type set.

Also, I’d go for 2 a hell of a lot more often because of what he can do

I could see that
yeah he's an inch shorter and 30 lbs lighter than Griffin

and not even close to the passer that RG3 is.. I don’t have much interest in him as a QB unless he makes a HUGE jump as a passer next season

I don't see that happening

In terms of “awesome black QBs who will undoubtedly get pigeonholed,” I think Tajh Boyd and Geno Smith will be the frontrunners next season.

Geno Smith

another South Florida kid. Came out of Miramar along with Ivan McCartney.

Also, I don’t care about Boyd, I want some Sammy Watkins down here in Aqua

Hey I read the Canes are up from like 27th to 11th in recruiting in just the last couple of weeks.

Any idea whats going on there?

Golden is landing studs

I think we have 2 of the top 10 WR’s in the country committed.. I gotta go check out their class again, but I know Golden has hit the trail HARD lately

Golden is such a huge shift.

It was nice to actually see guys improve from one year to another. No way we are not at the top again real soon.

When I read that there were 4 and 5 star guys in S. Florida that were leaving because they could not even get Shannon to look at them I was pissed. I like Shannon but that’s not how its done at the U.

right

that’s ridiculous… look at guys like Geno Smith, Shoelace, McCartney, all top-tier, All-American players down here that somehow escaped from Miami (right in their backyard) and FSU/UF.. crazy

Yeah word is that all those guys that wanted UM went to UF or FSU.

Makes me sick. Golden will turn that around.

Golden's first thing he did when hired

was apologize to all the Dade and Broward county schools that Shannon ignored, saying that he plans to keep all the homegrown talent at home

Yeah I am still so miffed about that.
Coker started that trend

he looked at the team Butch Davis left him, full of FL kids, and said “I need to go get some of those Ohio and Kansas and Iowa and Nevada guys”

fucking bastard

That one stud WR is from Stone Moutain Ga.
but he's not from goddamn Arizona or Kansas (damn you Arthur Brown)

he’s in the south lol

the Gators had a huge class come in, ugh
FSU is like 2nd in the nation too

they killed it

Gators got a ton of 4 and 5 star guys
But UT is still tops. Of course they have the nicest and the most overrated coach

in the land so they will still be average.

Texas prospects also get more respect from ESPN and Rivals and such

a 5-star guy in Texas and a 4-star guy in FL might be the same caliber athlete

But his classes are usually legit top 5 and then they do nothing but a lot of those

guys go on to be studs at the next level. Kinda like Shannons UM teams.

that's true

he’s got an NFL pipeline despite him lol

Hey where did you get the cheese!
who's got cheese?
Mouse trap!
lol

that was a great board game haha

We bought it for my son

He broke it within 3 weeks. I think that’s about the average lifespan of that game.

yeah it was so hard to set up too
I ate the cheese myself!
I hope you finally passed that piece of plastic.
it was real cheese

another underrated part of that game lol

it was ruff that last week!
But we will beat you again this year!!
Wanna bet?
nope we beat you two years in a row, Im good with it
Yeah we will give you a couple so you wont be so down when

we go on a 10 year run.

your guys cant stay out of prison to go on a ten year run!!
UF and FSU have both had more players arrested than UM in the last decade
And Bama and UT and OU and.....................
Bama has had more arrests under Saban than every other program
Because Saban is the freaking Devil.
You nailed it

Robinson’s a slot guy in the NFL.

he's so dangerous once he has the ball

I wouldn’t hesitate to use him in a Reggie Bush or Darren Sproles-type role either. All over the field, get him the ball, let him work.

Is he rugged enough for the role?

I think Robinson’s closer to Dexter McCluster than Reggie Bush or Sproels

that's probably a better comparison

he’s a high volume runner at Michigan even though he’s a QB, and he takes a lot of hits as a QB because he creates with his feet. So he’s durable.

Hate to leave just as the party gets started

But peace out

Boo. Off to the Blue Oyster you go
Better than blue waffle

Nasty stuff that is

Good night Anish
The over/under for this game was 53.

WAY UNDER.

Thanks for reminding me there was a game :)

I thought I was the only one watching lol

This one is getting good, too
Hey there!
What's up!
Hey Mosul,
What's up, Dave?
same old same just having some fun i guess
Just talking to the kids.
If you have a good QB

and a big TE or a big WR… why would you NOT go for 2 on every TD?

lol I love how that "Lol" from Anish in that thread is the only green comment

That is so awesome, you must be proud

I am

he’s like my protege

Poor, poor kid.
LOL No where but down from here.
he's in good hands

I won’t steer him wrong… who would you rather him learn from?

alpha would be a good role model
only if we want a male version of Superhead

and we don’t lol

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol I admit, my eyes light up when I see your name.

I can’t wait to read your comments especially in the “Pro-(anything that doesnt make sense)” posts

If only he had had a chance to be a contributing author on the site....
hey let's see where my next job takes me

Might be done coaching for a while, gonna need my football fix… don’t rule me out just yet, especially if we get a QB lol

I notice a hint a scarcaism there Mosul
Me?

No....never

Jelousy is not good, IJS
lol I just hate people who can stare logic right in the face

and deny that it exists…

Someone he can look up to.

You know, both physically and role-model like.

so mean

i hate you.. matty was better (low blow lol)

Wow!
I AM BAN-PROOF

I’m like the Highlander of Phinsider

ha ha Idiot, that was a good one
rofl.

Is that a challenge?

You do realize, there can be only one, right?

yeah but I'm only 2/3rds

so there can be another one lol

Good point.

You’re saved, for now.

won the ozkar for greatest movie ever made
LOL

and he’s only 15.

he's the same age as the kids I coach lol

btw, if any of you in FL saw the Broward High School Football All-County Team, the Freshmen RB from USchool played for me last season.. coached him since he was 7.. so proud lol

My buddy was the coach of the team that won it all this year from here,Jeff I guess I wont say his last name, Merit It cant hurt he was on ESPN
lol he's a State Champion high school coach

his last name is out there

no it was like 10-12 year olds
oh just kidding lol
Sure

Even though I would prefer to be off4l’s protege

that hurts
but...

I agree.. so would I lol

Im pretty sure most people would

But you would be a close second

story of my life

lol

Always a bridesmaid.

Never a bride.

I just wanna feel pretty
I told you Nick you would be a pretty girl, the spinner
I got your new nick name
Dude!

LOL No really I'm good. Hes all yours guy!
Me too
Me too
Hey where'd you come from?

I thought you decided you were too young and cool for us and booked out of the pahtay!

I read that as potty

made me laugh

I'm from Rhode Island, that's how we tawk ovah hia!
I have returned

kinda like gandalf in lotr

but mostly like Quentin Moses every season
Nah

Gandalfs cooler

ok act correct the brass is here
(I'm trying to ban him)

(it’s not working)

Ban me I will take a ambien and get on my neighbor computer and come back a Collard Greens 21 and just act stupid or should I say Stupider
lol not you

I was trying to ban the boss

Yeah

Nicky likes to try to ban me. It’s his goal in life. I don’t get the respect he gave Matty….

We're facebook friends

I was never facebook friends with Matty

Ahhh...

I feel loved.

well Im facebook friend with Texy Pooh and 6 Strings so there
Yeah hes my FB friend too.
you don't have a real facebook

I’m facebook friends with Ricardo Montalbon or whoever the hell you are lol

rofl

He does have you there, Tex.

yeah nobody really knows Tex, I think he is a super spy from Persia trying to steal out souls
LOL There is a very legit reason for that.
ah trader
Traitor?
yeah that to, I am trying to type to fast to keep up with you pros
And ... Hosley flashed some nice cuts there

Good stuff.

Did I miss or forget something.

I know why Finster isn’t around any more, but did Fr8 just drop off the site, or did somethign happen with him as well?

I think it was between those two
So much drama on this site last summer
Finster got pissed at me.

He was all about the one post a day Matty had, and when I started upping it to the 4 posts a day, he didn’t take it too well. So, when he told me that the site was too busy for people to read everything, I pointed out all the stuff I wasdoing every day. He took it as me telling him I was better than him, and he quit.

Is there a way we can raise the featured post section?

So our stuff can stay in view?

Like my Collard Greens post !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This^
Yes. The collard greens post trumps all
I think it's as high as it will go.

I deleted the TiqIQ widget, since the season is over, but I think everything above the featured widget is locked in by SB Nation. I’ll look again to make sure.

Why are there so many posts a day?

is that just your preference or are the higher-ups looking for more content?

Higher ups want at least 4 a day.

I’ve been hitting around 6-7 a day lately, just because there’s been a ton to post.

It’s going to suck later when there is nothing…

Could we possibly do a Simmons-style mailbag where I answer e-mails?

That would be a dream come true.

That would be awesome.

Hmmmm….

I was going to e-mail you that idea, but I figure this form of communication would do
And I've been sitting on that idea for a while, too
I can set you up an email account on Gmail...

askthephinsider or something like that, and we can do a weekly piece….

I really like that idea.

I will E-mail Mosul all my thoughts and where I would like for the site to go. We will Jazz this place up
Dave use spell check first or he just deletes them.
I pick on me I rode the special bus
My wife is a special needs teacher....

I can get it translated.

nice it will be helpful
lol

is she really?

I heard him say that before, will she tutor me
Yes.
that's cool

seems incredibly difficult

She loves it.

She’s teaching high functioning high schoolers right now. But, her ideal job (which she had when I was stationed in Georgia) is the severe and profound classes.

what does that mean?

severe and profound?

The kids who are truly mentally challenged.

Kids who can’t/won’t talk, some can’t go to the bathroom by themselves, etc.

Those kids can stay in high school until they are 21. My wife is a saint and loves to work with them.

Her class in Georgia was amazing.

wow

that’s gotta be challenging. I agree that she’s a saint, takes a seriously patient person to do that job.

Thats awesome dude.
The world would be a better place with more people like your wife.
oh shit I read that wrong

thought it said The world would be better if more people liked your wife lol ooops

leave it to Nick opps I mean spinner
Yeah that would not be cool at all.
lol I was like what?!?
Ahhh...Nicky....
Dude you know I will make fun of people

but never take shots at wives or kids.

yeah then it is a bit much
I know that's why I was shocked when I first read it
Good deal, All joke aside, much props to her, great class with that. My wife teachs the other way, she has all the one kicked out of school with Felonies waiting to be tried in court
That's a whole different set of challenges.
Wow.
yeah and it wears her down, they are pretty bad, she has all the kids here that make the papers in St. Lucie county. The kids that killed his mother, the boy that killed both his parents that made the National TV, there all there
Wow. Thats not good.
thenI can be part of the blogs?
Dear Darla
Okay, let's do that e-mail. Awesome

And I will answer a handful of them each week. Get excited.

Can I send in questions?
no

they will suck

Nicky, would like us to set one up for you too?

“With pork, should I go with a red or a white wine?”

(hint hint)

lol 4 a day is a lot.. especially when the front page only shows 10, and the whole point of this site is to drive conversation, not content. I think SBN wants to be like a legit news and reporting resource instead of a blog

You can make the FP show more.

Mine is set to 15.

I don't want to
I know.

You’re lazy.

but I don't ever sleep

figure that one out

Neither do I.
it's not a contest

jeez

Are you sure?
not exactly

but I win

What's the name of this game?

I WIN!

Mine is at 20.
well aren't you the little overachiever...

(douchebag) lol

Someone has to take up the slack for your lazy ass.
Show off.
lol that's what I'm saying!

teacher’s pet

Whatever happened to Rzayo posting?
Same thing as Nicky.
he's a mainstay on the other site

he’s perfect there. Guy is a dickjoke machine lol

what other site
Finsnation

they are like the yin to our yang.. so funny

oh well this is where I go till I am banned the it will be the sport page, You all are mean to me, You told me that so I would leave
lol

Nope. We love having you here.

well thank you.
They are funny....

I just wish we had been able to keep RZ here. He would have added a great personality to the FP.

true

he’s hilarious.. but he also goes nuts when somebody disagrees

Yes, he does.

He stopped talking to me for like three days when I said Ireland had a decent draft this year.

you said that?

not talking to you…

Yeah, it was right after Sparano got fired, and he was ranting against Ireland

I said, since we can only say for sure that Ireland has had the player decision making powers this season, his 1 draft was pretty decent.

He got Pouncey, Clay, Thomas, Wilson, and Gates.

RZ got upset that I would consider Clay, Wilson, or Gates as good picks. So, he stopped talking to me on Twitter for a few days.

well here's the thing

we thought the first draft looked so good..
Jake, Henne, Merling, Langford, Donald Thomas, Lex Hilliard..

and only Langford and Jake are actually any good. Hilliard is meh.

Second draft, we ended up with 2 ok CB’s, and a 4th WR

3rd draft

looks like we are going to end up with only a DE and a reserve OL..

The further away from the draft we get, the worse they look for Jeff

True.

But, it’s a matter of trying to figure out how much is Jeff, and how much was Bill.

Like the fact that Bill has said he wanted to take Jimmy GRaham, and Ireland was trying to get him to take Graham, but he thought he could wait one more pick, taking Jerry (?) instead.

I dunno

I can’t imagine Parcells having a lot of input outside of the overall philosophy, which Jeff shares even outside of Parcells circle.

I just don’t think he had the energy or desire to do the scouting and researching necessary to draft guys, especially the obscure ones we ended up with. I think he guided Jeff, but Ireland was making the calls.

See, I think the same thing...

I think Bill didn’t have the desire to scout anymore, so he trusted his gut feeling. Looked at a little tape, the measurables at the combine, and made picks based on that.

I’m sure Jeff had say in it, but in the end, I think it was Bill’s call.

Same reason why Sparano said at the start of the season that he was happy that they finally had speed, and that he had wanted to get speed on the team for a while. Speed is not a Parcells concern.

I’m sure Jeff had say in it, but in the end, I think it was Bill’s call.

I make that argument all the time but mostly get shouted down.

well I kinda disagree with that premise

I think Bill had final say, but I’m not sure he vetoed Jeff with a lot of things. The Pat White move really screams Ireland because it doesn’t fit at all with Parcells history or style. Neither did the Vontae pick I don’t think, because he wasn’t highly praised by his coaches, and he wasn’t a team captain, something Parcells always valued really high in the first round

Except that there were reports before

the draft that Bill was in love with Pat even though we all dismissed them at the time.

Yep.

We didn’t believe Bill could like Pat. Then we drafted him.

Yeah it confirmed it.

Also word that Ireland did not want him. More proof that Bill was calling the shots.

maybe

then there were reports about Parcells pulling the reigns on Ireland the following year a little bit because of that pick. Like I said, we’ll never know, but just from the surface and from some of the things we do know, it’s hard for me to say Parcells was the guy making the decisions instead of just ok’ing them

But it has to be more then a

coincidence that the report of Bill wanting White came out before the draft.

don't trust anonymous sources
Yeah but when they come true

on something so unlikely there tends to be more than a guess behind it.

well I don't know

what about the trade down for Odrick/Misi? And then Ireland talking about how Misi was his #1 target in this draft, and they traded down solely so they could get him with good value?

That alone makes me hate him. If Misi was his favorite player in that draft, he sucks at talent eval

Link?
type finsnation

lol

http://www.finsnation.com/

He’s also a major portion of their sister site:

http://www.miamiheatnation.com/

But don't go there and never come back ;)
too hard to stay there

not a lot of posts, not a lot of comments.. so much fun to read though, especially on a day when I’ve hit most of the stuff here already

not even looking Im a loyal type of guy
is he the dude

Our the other guy

He's Rizzmiggizz

He’s not listed on Finsnation, but is a contributor. He’s listed on MiamiHeatNation

I see what you mean
He couldn't get comfortable with not using the F-bomb every other word.
lol @ F-bomb

such a ridiculous phrase

I know.

I rarely use it.

I say

just say the word. it’s just a word. It’s not even a slur, just a (versatile) word.

I have said it before, I think you do a fine job, And anyhting I dont have to run is good for me, use it for what its worth to you
Yeah they did not leave because of one another.
Drama and some other newbies according to him from what I got
he went back to banging Katherine Heigl

or some bullshit lol

She's hot, but I can't stand her
You think he can do us all a favor and get her to stop acting.
Fr8 made a post about I don't remember what, said he was leaving and he was gone.
he was insane
It was all an act.
Ozkar was crazy.
FinsX was too....

He’s around somewhere. Every now and then I get an email from him. He’s a great dude. Just gets crazy about the Dolphins.

So get him back in the mix.
Hey tex what happen to the old guy that would make the crazy post you did not like
I dont know who your speaking of.
He won't.

He got pissed at Matty because he kept getting banned, and was doing things SB Nation didn’t like. In the end, he decided it was best if he just left.

Miss the guy, though.

he was nuts

every sunday he got banned because he went OFF on people

Yes, yes he did.

And his sig was nuts.

hysterical

we baited him into making it like 400 lines, and then he got banned

Damn.

He is not listed as a member anymore.

I can’t find him. I guess if you don’t log in for a given amount of time, SBN delets your account or something.

His sig was on his profile page.

lol

SBN sucks.. they are like Na-(banned)

THIS BOO OZKAR
not the insane he wanted to be

he was like one of those double-life guys lol

Very, very true.
FinsX is still around?

Lurking?

Yes.

He has sent me emails about posts on the site. He doesn’t log in anymore, but I know he hasn’t completely given up on the site.

Why
Like alpha lurking
He left because we started Henne again
Anyone see Alshon Jeffery's hail mary catch yesterday?

Anyone have a problem with Alshon Jeffery wearing a Dolphins uniform next year if we can’t get a QB?

not at all

he’s incredible. I love that Scouts Inc. had him at like 30 last I saw lol

They are idiots

Blackmon, Jeffery and Michael Floyd are all nasty

We need an OLB and safety, too

I know it’s frivolous pick, but I think Courtney Upshaw would rain ass all over our opponents. Dude is a disgusting pass rusher, and he’s excellent against the run, as well. Great success.

I'm all about Ojomo in the late rounds

I think he can be a very good pass rusher in a 4-3, but he spent 4 years not being coached at all at UM

Nope.

All for it.

Yes

Saw it live. Jeffery’s a beast of a WR prospect.

he has played with absolute crap at QB this year too
You mean Stephen "Baldwin" Garcia wasn't a great quarterback!?
He was Matt Moore...

so…

yes.. he was great…

Hey guys, I'm back (for now)
you never left did you

hung around to watch the goodbyes, got caught up reading another conversation… 10 minutes later, figured you would join in again

No

I was supposed to go somewhere, but I guess I’m not going now, lol.

she has a headache?
Well, you do know she has a crush in sanchez

So shes a little messed up in the h.ead regardless

I'm telling you

show up in Baywatch shorts and a football and that’s it

I dont own baywatch shorts

Nor do I want to

it's not for you

it’s for her… lol

Well,i would receive the ultimate benefit

if you see what I mean, lol.

That's a Nicky thing to do, right there.
lol not me

When I say bye, I close the window.. I have no idea if you guys say goodbye or hurl obscenities lol (I assume you curse my name)

same I am sure you all hate me, For sore Mosul and 6 strings
lol not gonna lie

Tex is so happy when you leave hahahahaha

I thought Texy Pooh like me, I waiting on the nipple. it will be the new Nipplegate
Yeah

So hes the oldest

NO one hates Dave. Well that guy you offered the hugs to maybe.
Come on Tech!

Win this thing.

boooo

I <3 Denard

Have to go for VT.

A good chunk of my wife’s family went there…

And, I was accepted to go there – and should have gone there. Love Florida Tech, but I think I would have liked a big school instead of a small school, looking back on it.

I gotta root for Robinson

watched him play in high school.. feel kinda connected

Yes

Go Va. Tech.

WOW

what a catch!!!

Wow nice catch
Holy balls, that was insane
incomplete

even if he holds on.. first thing that hits the ground is his elbow.. out of bounds

Ball never moved
Horrible call
Jesus, this guy picks OT to miss a FG. Oh my
I think they got the call right

but the reason wrong. He caught it, but he never got down inbounds.

I thought that elbow glanced inbounds. Doesn't really matter, though
didn't look like it
Well, that's how you saw it

It looked like the peak of his elbow came down inbounds.

To me, that is
yeah it was hard to tell

because the replay never focused on it.. no freeze frame..

College replay bothers me for some reason

These refs always look like they don’t know what to say. “Um, false start … on No. 800?”

Don't argue ladies. Your both pretty!
calm down my two boo's Spinner and 6 Strings were all family
who the heck is 6 strings? lol
Keith aka KMB aka 6 Strings
Dave, tell me you're not calling Nicky "Spinner." That is so wrong
it's not the worst nickname I've had here
lol, I am sure I will have a ugly one soon enough
Still one of the funniest thing was when like half the members actually thought you were a girl.
HA , me well Im flattered
that was so funny

I showed up like 2 days later and people started flirting with me lol

No nicky Im the girl not you, I would be a pretty girl
Yeah that was not my fault, much.............
wait I wanted to be the girl
he said he would not be a good looking girl, but I told he would like a spinner type
holy crap no one can kick anymore
I HATED how Ok State lined up for a FG when they had the ball at the 1 yard line

Pound it in for God’s sake

Thats what I tell my wife right before she kicks me out of bed
I agree 110%

that’s playing conservative, I hate it. You are more likely to miss a FG than you are to fumble a snap from under center. QB sneak that bitch. If it gets to 4th down and you don’t get in, THEN you can kick. That should be Plan B, always.

how was that not a false start
the kicker jumped
LOL @ everyone in this thread online on facebook
Maize isn't a color!

it’s a vegetable! Yellow is a color!

What the hell is Hemingway saying?

LOL

who is that guy talking and Nicky can you translate that, Im not that Ghetto
Yeah, I needed subtitles for that
Not sure that would work, plus he is in College
"We ran the play"

they ran a play.
“Denard put the ball up”
he threw it.
“We always workin’ on those types of plays”
they practice that.

Also, it had nothing to do with the question

Nice and well done I will Rec'd it
What was the question?
describe the TD towards the end of the first half

he didn’t give you much info lol

Alright, good night guys

forreal this time

Well good night again buddy
brush your teeth!
later.

Now stop reading the good byes before you get roped in again….

So ... Do you think the Colts cut or keep Peyton?
And who do you think we'll end up with as head coach?
I hope Chud!
+1
Bring him home!
Are we in any line to interview him?

I heard he’s liekly headed to Jax

Hes on our list reportedly.

Mia>>>>Jax

I agree, just wasn't sure if he was going to be interviewed by us
Also-

Jaxpossibly LA?

Yeah but I think the new owner wants to stay?
think: Fisher

want: Chuds or Fewell

or Carmichael
Bowels will be back when everybody turns us down
Which one is Carmichael?
NO Saints OC
Oh ok

Do you think having Brees helps him out though? I mean we need a damn QB lol

Having Brees cant hurt him, But we will have Henne so there close
He's been working with Payton for the last 5 years

Having Brees helps, but being a good coach helps too. Also, he’s going to a) understand the need and importance of a great QB, b) know how to coach that QB, and c) have a good relationship with that QB

I don't think we'll get Fisher.

I would say it if the Rams’ Chief Operating Officer wasn’t Fisher’s agent’s brother.

Yeah, and they don't even have a GM right now!

Oh well.

Do you think negotiating with Fisher today could help us in a draft trade with the Rams if he goes there?

Perhaps discussing business helps a bit

don't know

I think it all depends on who they want. If they want a LT, we can get there. If they want a QB, we’re screwed. If they want a WR, I don’t know if they’ll trade down all the way to us.

Ugh I don't want to trade Marshall to them either
Here's a scenario

STL wants a LT. They are targeting Kalil. We offer Jake straight up for the pick to get Griffin. Then, because we kept our pick at 9, we draft Reiff or Martin to be the new LT..

Do you do it?

I do, because we get our QB, AND we get our LT, AAAND we pay less for both of them combined over the next 4 years than Jake.

Sure, that way the Long brothers will play togethah!
Both of them rushing opposing QBs would be insane!
yes

but it’s ok because STL sucks lol

That might be the only way I do trade Jake.

I really, really, really hate the idea of letting him go. But, if it was straight up, and we kept the #9 pick too, I might do it.

yeah that's a great scenario too

because in the end, if the OT we take works out, we lose nothing to trade up and get our QB. Still have all our picks in this draft, still have all our future picks, still have all our weapons. Only negative is risking our future on two draft picks, but they are both Top 10 picks

The ONLY way I trade him is if we keep that No.9 pick
And would you take Reiff or Martin?
whichever one was available

if both, I probably go with Reiff

Yeah, Reiff is more complete, while Martin is a knockout run blocker

I go with the total package in Reiff and be done with it.

yep

and I love Big 10/Big 12 OL. Good pedigree

I will be bummed if we part with Jake

I just read the Walterfootball draft comment board from the day we signed Jake Long, and EVERYONE was convinced he was going to suck and we made a terrible choice by selecting him. That Matt McGuire douche over there was adamant that Long would be destroyed by every pass rusher he saw. HAHA!

LOL

how could anyone think he wasn’t going to be great? He was a phenomenal college player, and physical freak. There was no way he was going to suck as a LT. No idea how they saw RTO in him…

Read how smart these guys are

http://forum.walterfootball.com/showthread.php?3706-Jumbo-Elliot-Jake-Long

LOL
NEW YORK JETS (Probably Gholston) He’ll get raped.

Yes, Jake got owned by the guy who has recorded 0 sacks in his career

I figured you'd like that

I also like how they assume he’s going to get his ass beat by Shawne Merriman.

When I think of Jake Long, I think of him humiliating Jared Allen last season

Basically standing him up on every play and throwing him away after the whistle. I wish I could find footage from that game.

LOL

If you just reverse the meaning of his phrases, they fit. Like if he’s talking about Gholston getting raped, and laughing hysterically at the thought of Merriman doing anything…

but yeah, I have no idea how he though Jake was going to suck..

I just read that

And had the exact same reaction.

That dude was a douche.

He thought Hali or Allen would take Jake

Pretty sure Long has embarrassed both those guys.

I think I would say Martin....

But I wouldn’t be upset either way.

Lol did you get that idea from Sportscenter?

They just mentioned that question twice

Yes

Can’t wait to hear Kiper and McShay paw at each other over this issue.

I think he's gone

that’s why Polian was fired IMO.. he didn’t want to draft Luck, he wanted to stick with his guy, Manning

claim something is up with neck and not bring him back, but offer him a Brett Farve deal to retire with them and pay him 10 mill a year
I have a feeling they cut him

Though in my head it makes 0 sense.

Be Well all , Im heading to the kitchen. Untill tomorrow
You sleeping the kitchen now?
Hey guys

On the Featured stories widget. I can only get it to right under the Fan Posts List. I can also put it on the left side, where it is right now. Take a look at the FP and let me know where you think it will work best.

on the left

IMO

I'm thinking the same thing.

It gets it out of all the other posts, so it kind of stands out.

also

it’s out of my way lol

That's true.

I do want to make sure it works for you.

LOL You forgot the sacasm box.
Damn.

I knew I forgot something.

Thats ok. It was probably obvious to everyone but Nick because of his overly inflated ego.
shut up!
Or?
He'll ban you.
(Shhh...I don't think he realizes he can't actually ban someone).
I use my imagination
If he could I would have to send you an email like every other day to unban me.
nah

I’d be drunk with power banning all the stupid people lol

LOL Dude that would not be in the best interest of the site.
who said I had the best interests of the site in mind?

lol

Yup.

It would be Nicky, Tex, Keith, Me, and like three other people on here.

you'd be gone

for like 1 hour, just because I would get a kick out of it lol

I know you would.
He would also ban me for the cheap thrill of it.
Check the game plan, that was the sceam all along!
I guess the left because its higher up.
Lol Andrew Luck on sitting behind Manning: "Such is Life"

He said all the right things too though. He just sounded a little pissed haha

He's so weird

but holy crap he’s such a stud

and I think he could deal with it

he used to be a camper at Manning’s passing camp, so I think they’ll get along, and I think Luck would soak up so much of Manning’s Manningness. But, every year that Luck is sitting is a wasted year of his career.

Wow did you guys see this Ryan Clark story?
It's on, but I wasn't paying attention to the TV at all.

What was it?

Ryan not prefer not to say that name to much during the preseason!
Ryan Clark is ruled out of the playoff game this weekend

because it’s in Denver, and he has sickle cell trait. Last time he played in Denver, he reacted so badly that he ended up in the hospital and lost his liver and gallbladder.

Yeah I saw that. its for his own good.
yeah definitely

I don’t remember hearing about that though

I was reading about that ealier. Its a condition that goes in to hyper drive at high altitude.
yeah isn't it where the red cells don't fill up with oxygen

so at high altitude’s, where the air is thin, you end up oxygen deprived..

That cant be good.
A real man cant climb a mountain!
I read back in 2007 that his calves ballooned
that was indacation riter there!
Wow.

Smart move.

yeah, his spleen too
his body is eating itself!
oh maybe it was the spleen not the liver
Yeah, it was his spleen
Good news guys. I got some killer coupons for Taco Cabana today! Sweet!
Cheese taco owwe!
Go to Del Taco, asshole
LOL I am hording money like Keith Beebe right now.
Can you still eat with that mouth or is that just intake!
LOL
lol. I truly love to horde my money

I get off on not having a credit card payment.

I imagine you getting your statement every month and then just staring at it for a very long time going

“Yes, yes, excellent!” in some weird, made up European accent.

naked

raging semi going lol

Ahhhh....the site just went crazy!!!!

I have to figure out what is happening…..Front page all sorts of jacked up.

looks good to me
It was the Countdown Clock

Something got jacked up in the HTML code for it somehow. When I moved the Twitter feed to the right side, the countdown clock ate the site.

Everything was stuffed into the left hand sidebar.

I pulled the countdown clock off the site really fast, and it fixed it.

Redid the HTML on the clock and it’s back up now.

It was strange.

hahahaha
the clock ate the site

LOL

It did.

It was strange.

LOL I have brought a blog down before by messing with the HTML code. Thankfully I could always remember

what I did.

I hate HTML.

Just because one key stroke screws up so damn much.

LOL Yeah it sure can. And if the placement is not just right the whole thing is screwed.
Mosul allways on the job!
LOL yeah i noticed

It showed just enough that i could still click the link to get back in here though

Looks ok for me.
Earl go "LOL" that "Flynn is the Only Choice that Makes Sense" Fanpost please
hahahaha
Thank God I'm not a moderator

I’d ban more people than GGN with

Hey that sort of insanity can get you banned on some blogs.
Very, very true.
Keep the well wishers No reprizells!

By the way even if you are not a Texas Rangers fan if you ever get a chance to try one of Nolan Ryans

Natural Beef Steaks do so. They are excellent!

Where do you get them?
Not sure if HEB carries them as thats what I assume you have there.
Yep.
Super S Foods in Central Texas.

Oh and I like Kroger but I wish we had HEB here. WE have Central Market but not the regular HEB’s. HEB>Kroger.

we had Kroger in Va, not here though
publix is solid though
Yeah thats where I shot when I am down. The WinnDixie in Marathon is NASTY!
Im black
Thanks for sharing.
well im moave really
Its a type of beeve!
lol, it cold here in PSL for sure took out the trast and my sack shrunk alot
who is this Peterson dude, and is he any good
Are you reading the NFL.com story?
on our page
I just saw the front
Peterson was the President for the Chiefs.

He’s been linked to Ross in business ventures in the past, and was the GM of the USFL team Ross owned. They’ve known each other forever. KC fans hate the guy, because they say he ruined their team.

I don’t really want him here.

(And, that report is the basis for the story I am posting in a few hours)
is he any good
Tex I made some awesome burgers last night. Took the end from the mignons we dont eat ground them up with the fatty parts of the ribeye rosast,boom, Tender and juciy
Wow. That sounds excellent.
Can I point something out about that thread saying how bad Jake Long will be....

Not one person said we should have taken Matt Ryan in that spot.

Because that would be false.
Just sayin'...
Yeah I know. Just not a POV that I subscribe to. I think Long was the right choice and that Ryan benefits from the

amazing talent around him.

I agree.

Long was the right choice in that draft.

And so many are so ready to ship him off because according to them RT "is just not that important in todays NFL".

One even said because he does not score TD’s. Shoot me!

Alright, I think I am out for the night.

Talk to you later!
