QUOTE (MuckFinnesota @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 08:52 PM) Let me put it this way. I am looking for someone, and I do want to date. I've been told by some of my peers that it is better to just "let love come to you" instead of being single and looking for someone to have fun or enjoy yourself with, and possibly even making a relationship out of it. The problem is that at my school many of the girls are taken, and for SAU being as small at it is, that isn't a good thing. I know that if I waited to do something until I finally settled down, I wouldn't have inquired about NIU's Sports Management program or have had the balls to pursue something that I loved. And I wholeheartedly agree with yours and Rock's conclusions about what can happen with someone. I just haven't found someone like that to share my life with yet, and learn more about myself with. That's what I was hinting at. In fact, no matter what, I wouldn't ever go looking for love. That's when it passes you up. Just let it naturally happen.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 08:13 PM) I've never seen Inception (and people making ridiculous statements like this is the reason I'm waiting until it's out on DVD), but that just isn't true. Inception is a movie you should've seen at the theater. It was friggin great.

BTW, I don't forsee Walker leaving.

I agree 3E. Someone needs a gameplan. The only person with a gameplan is PK. Manny does too, but right now, physically, he's not up to par for whatever reason(that's already a different discussion). I'd honestly welcome back Walt Hriniak. Or maybe Edgar Martinez.

Citizen Kane was overrated. Inception > Godfather > Casino Royale > The Dark Knight >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Batman Returns > Citizen Kane.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 06:52 PM) Urlacher needs to start f***ing Kim then (seems like that would be his type) He did Kim's client - Paris Hilton. Only reason why Kim became popular was because of Paris.

QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 02:27 PM) Boy he is very lucky he only broke it. I thought for sure he had torn ligaments watching that play. Horrible year for Bush after the Super Bowl. Lost his hot girlfriend, got his Heisman taken away and now has a broken fibula. Eh, he brought it on himself. Maybe it's all happening because of his ex-gf. Kaardashians work as good luck charms to the men they're married to. Lamar = Championship. Reggie = championship. Then Reggie broke up with Kim because he wanted to be able to cheat on her without it being high profile and she wanted to get married, which he doesn't want to do. Then he gets the Heisman taken away because he took money, then the broken fibula on his own dropped punt.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 06:24 PM) It's probably a bit of both, but it seems so much like it's the latter. This is an organization that had glaring holes both on offense and defense but actually had a decent duo of running backs, and then took a running back with their first round pick. They quite clearly had no good option at QB and 3 mediocre options at the very best, and didn't take a QB in the draft until the 7th round (and subsequently cut him). I don't think anyone in the organization has a clue right now. For whatever reason, they didn't want to give Shanahan GM duties when it seemed as though that was the only thing holding him back from coming to Buffalo. If they have Shanahan as the coach instead of Chan Gailey, it's entirely possible that Donovan McNabb would have been more receptive to Buffalo in that scenario, and at that point they can try to address the OLine issue with the #9 pick or trade down (and there probably would have been interest in that pick considering picks 11-13 were all traded on draft day) to try and get more help overall. A lot of that is hindsight and conjecture, but the Bills just seemingly keep making bad decision after bad decision, and it's really no wonder why they are viewed as the current laughingstock of the league. Completely agreed. How far are they from their glory years in the 90's. How far they are from the early decade Bills with Drew Bledsoe, Peerless Price, etc. They're just flat garbage these days. And it's because no one has a sense of direction.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 02:57 PM) Since it seems they are heading the way of unifying the titles, I would just like to say that I can't wait til that dumb spinner belt that doesn't spin anymore is gone. Agreed. It was the dumbest thing ever since it's inception.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 10:19 AM) I really like that they're giving Kane this serious run. It's almost enough to make me tune in every once in a while. As myself. I for sure thought he was going to lose. Did he win somewhat clean?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 06:07 PM) I disagree, I really enjoyed both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, I like the pace and tone of both movies. And I especially like that they took out the tongue in cheek hokiness that crept into the series at the end of the brosnan era Agreed on all fronts. Craig is just such a better Bond and the vision for Bond is so much more simpler, but has the same level of badassness. QOS was not great, but it was still a very good movie. Casino Royale was just magnificent. Vesper stole my heart. QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Sep 21, 2010 -> 06:24 PM) Daniel Crag = best James Bond. Discuss. Also, 007 Franchise in limbo and jeopardy because of MGM/Sony. Discuss that too. Ready and GO! Looks like it's being discussed. Thanks mod! Lol.

Saying they stood pat is incorrect and implies they tried to do nothing at all to improve their team. They went out and got Edwin Jackson. They went out and tried super duper hard for a slugger and just were unlucky in doing so until 8/31/10.

Yeah, GoldenEye isn't a big deal. And Daniel Craig is a much better Bond anyway. Too bad the franchise is in trouble though.

Personally, when finding someone, it's best to go without a plan. You limit yourself if you say "I'm going to wait until I'm fully settled down." You miss out on life a ton by doing so, not just women. Rock said he would've grown apart from a woman he met when he was 22. While this can happen, you can also grow with someone. And most valuable, you end up learning more about yourself.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 20, 2010 -> 08:33 PM) I haven't had that problem but you might find something on it in these forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=619 Definitely bookmark them. Thanks.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 20, 2010 -> 07:04 PM) When Manny WAS Manny, he didn't need 3 weeks and there is no way KW would have claimed him if he thought Manny needed anything longer than a week. KW thought wrong. But at the same time, if they bring back Konerko, there's not going to be much better options than bringing in Manny. Dunn will be too expensive for them unfortunately. We shall see though. Everything hinges on PK.

Picked up the Evo this past weekend. Best phone I've ever had. Only question is, my girlfriend got the same phone and she's having a problem receiving text messages and email on time. They'll be timestamped for a different time and that's when she'll receive them even though they're sent way earlier. Anyone know how to change this? Never happens with my phone and the phones are normally next to each other.

Who won last night? I didn't bother ordering because my older brother is the huge fan and he was working. I usually only order the PPV's for him. With that said, the pounding fists thing is just dumb and I wish they would do away with it. I also hate the punt. I think that's a dumb move too. I do love the DDT from the ropes.

The big question for the Bears is going to be, can they play fast paced in the frozen tundra of Lord Soldier's Field.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 20, 2010 -> 06:48 PM) Fastballs are blowing him away. His bat is slow. Maybe its technical, maybe its a lack of juice and age. There are some here that think the Sox may want to give Manny a contract for next season, according to Gonzales, there is no chance. He's been with the Sox for 3 weeks and still doesn't have his "timing". I'm thinking he's not the MVP type hitter he used to be. It takes a lot longer to have your timing down than 3 weeks. That's why there is ST. IIRC, he had a leg injury. If he still has it, it can affect his timing too. I'd be willing to give him an incentive laden deal. He can still clearly hit offspeed stuff. He clearly still has a great eye. It's a matter of, "is he losing batspeed, or is the injury still affecting him?"

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 03:43 PM) Sorry, but running the clock out is actually running some sizeable chunk of the clock off, not running the ball for no gain three times and taking the minimal amount of time off the clock without it stopping. They made the Cowboys burn two timeouts. As a 'boys fan, that hurts big time. Because as soon as that happened, the Cowboys had to throw everything to the sidelines. It took away half the field.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 03:50 PM) oh really, 4 turnovers wasn't a big problem? That was a big problem, but the predictive playcalling on that drive was a bigger one and the end reason on why they lost the game. They literally ran the ball 6 straight times, no variety either. Balta would've been livid. Favre just looks old nowadays.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 03:36 PM) BTW, think Brett Favre understands the point of training camp after today? Not really. Bigger problem was 6 runs on goal and no td. No pass attempts whatsoever.

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 02:52 PM) Is this line better without Chris Williams? Kevin Shaffer looks good at RT. Yes. They looked a ton better without Chris Williams. QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 03:00 PM) That was the absolute right call. Bears took up about 2 minutes on those 3 runs and the Cowboys now have 2 minutes to score 10 pts. Going to take a lot things going the right way to get them. Yes it was. Text book running out the clock and burning TO's. QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 19, 2010 -> 03:02 PM) The issue is that we can't run the ball. There is no hope of running the clock out. What you're doing is saying we are willing to trade 2 minutes coming off the clock for possession of the ball. I'd rather use safe passes and at least have some hope of making a first down. The reward by far outweighs the small risk in my opinion, considering the odds of making a first down on the ground are about 10 %. That is running out the clock. You waste two minutes and they waste a few timeouts. They need two scores and there's not much time left. That's how you do it.
