Its a poison pill. Delaney knows that the SEC wont want to play North of the Mason-Dixon line, therefore they are unlikely to agree to the proposal. This way the Big 10 gets to say "We are the good guys who want the playoffs, the SEC is the bad guy." Simple brinkmanship, make an offer that you know the other side doesnt want, but sounds reasonable to a third party.

No Steve, lets set the record straight. While you were busy believing that Paterno was the most powerful man in Pennsylvania and that it was all Paterno, I was the only one saying that there was no way it was just Paterno, and that Paterno was being used as a scapegoat to cover up for more powerful people. Lets start at the beginning, in early November, I was already saying that it was Penn State, not Paterno. Nov 9, 2011 -> 12:12 PM Nov 9, 2011 -> 10:59 PM Nov 9, 2011 -> 11:18 PM Nov 9, 2011 -> 11:24 PM AND THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE: Nov 9, 2011 -> 11:40 PM Jan 25, 2012 -> 07:47 PM So on November 9, when I clearly said it was my belief that there was a cover up and it just wasnt 3 people, where were you? You were busy eating up all the Joe Paterno hating, so very willing to crucify Paterno, not even caring that it was pretty apparent he was nothing more than a scapegoat. But hey, there are things you can attack me for, I stood up for Paterno's right to have a fair trial, I argued that you cant rely on a grand jury indictment, that Paterno wasnt as powerful as people thought. There are probably 50-100 posts in this thread where you can verbatim attack me, and I welcome it. But if you just want to completely lie and distort the truth to try and completely change the fact that I was the one saying there was a cover up, there is nothing I can say, because that is just false.

I agree Cutler is not being traded.

Why do people think that Marshall is available for trade? Today Marshall was quoted that the Dolphins should trade for Cutler... “Maybe down the road, we may have some extra picks, and we may be able to trade for him,” Marshall said. “But we have a quarterback in place in Matt Moore. He did an amazing job [in the] second half of the season, and where we go from there we’ll see. But Jay is a special talent, and he’s a great friend.”

Alcatraz was good. The River tomorrow.

China has a little bit more of a history with Taiwan, the whole not recognizing their independence thing. I dont know if it impacts Asian Americans.

All Asians are not the same. But I guess we cheer for our Mexican neighbors in the World Cup...

I know it when I see it. And Shack, Thats ridiculous, its like saying that youd be belittling Mercedes because you didnt pay sticker. Simply put the value of art is what the buyer is willing to pay. Id never go to an art gallery though, Im not well liked in the pretentious crowd.

Sometimes you can order the medicine as a flavored liquid, that can help considerably. They have pill pickets and other things at pet stores, they work better for dogs than cats.

Yeah allergies suck so thats understandable. And how is that wanting to be a dog? When Lions growl or chase prey are they being dogs?

Yeah anyone that doesnt like cats is suspicious.

Everyone likes my cats, one of them even plays fetch. My building doesnt allow dogs, so really no choice.

Both of my cats were free (1 from shelter and 1 from vet) and they are the best pets in the world so I concur.

Id say its unclear. If he is still under contract technically the one with the Clippers may not be enforceable. That being said it may be a mere formality and he may sign with the Clippers. Just unclear at the moment.

I think thats more of a wait and see as the Chinese Basketball Federation is saying that FIBA didnt handle it properly. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-w...rtin_nba_020212

Yeah I was being lazy and didnt feel like logging into my account.

Is it only season 1 on Netflix? I may have missed an episode or two in season 2.

Doug Collins may have won 1, but I dont know if he would have won 6. Thats the point, task master coaches wear on guys and while they often can get more out of less to begin with, they can also eventually wear on people and that sometimes results in getting less out of more. And my statement was "sometimes I wonder" not exactly extremely critical.

You completely missed the point, and I dont really feel like explaining it because obviously youre too intelligent to understand my moronic statements. SS2K, I was making a generality about task master coaches and whether they are the ones who can ultimately bring a team to the promise land, thus the Collins/Jackson comparison, as compared to Skiles who never took his team to the ECF (which Thibs and Collins did). Thus the comparison of 2 coaches who went to the ECF.

I like Thibs, but I sometimes wonder if hes more Doug Collins than Phil Jackson.

High protein isnt necessarily good, especially in cats because of kidney disease.

Noah has been playing with 4 fouls so he couldnt get his 5th early.

It makes perfect sense. You can have a bad defense out there and it doesnt mean the offense will necessarily take advantage of it. Or you can have the best defensive possession and the offense can throw up a prayer 3 and it goes in. Thats why just because they went on a 6-0 run doesnt mean that it was a smart move to keep in Boozer over Taj.

They pushed the lead despite the line up. Results dont always make it the best choice.

Pushing the lead back but still dont like the Boozer/Amare match up. Thankfully Amare wants to show off his jump shot instead of just driving past Boozer every time.
