  1. Maybe they were smart enough to realize the possible legal penalties of using those logos?
  2. If the Cleveland Browns cut former first-round picks Brandon Weeden and Trent Richardson tomorrow, it won't generate nearly the buzz that the Rams will if Sam doesn't make it out of training camp.
  3. http://www.miamihera...safety-don.html For the record, I hope Michael Sam goes on to have a great NFL career. I'm just tired of the "thought" police state of the NFL nowadays.
  4. I pointed this exact same thing out years ago during ESPN's nationally-televised West Virginia/Gonzaga basketball game. Student Bulldog fans chanted "Brokeback Mountain" at the WVU players and several signs were seen in the stands referencing "Brokeback Mountaineers." Administration received video of the game from ESPN and conducted its own witch-hunt investigation into the incident. Several students were disciplined but no one EVER suggested that if only West Virginia had a different nickname, that ugly episodes like this wouldn't happen in the first place.
  5. Welcome to the new NFL...gang-bangers like DeSean Jackson...murderers like Aaron Hernandez...players makin' it rain at the strip clubs and totally demeaning women...no problem, it's part of the lifestyle and culture. But release a two-word tweet that reflects negatively on a player on draft night...whoa whoa whoa...that can't be tolerated.
  6. What a dirty play. Stuff like that really cheapens the game.
  7. Can you imagine the demonstrations, violence, and anti-USA backlash in countries like Somalia, Pakistan, Iran, Libya, and many, many others if a Lutheran Church in Ishpeming, MI were to send a couple of buses to Minneapolis, abduct 200 Somali girls, bring them back to the UP, and force them to convert to ELCA ways? Nevermind these 200 girls, though, let's focus on what's REALLY important to Hollywood these days...posh hotels owned by Muslims who (gasp!) are anti-gay? http://www.npr.org/2014/05/09/310947517/hollywood-protests-against-owners-of-beverly-hills-hotel
  8. Good effing grief...from America's greatest generation in WWII to undoubtedly America's dumbest generation in 2014...
  9. ...and the soldier's perspective is one I like to listen to. Thanks for your service, ira.
  10. It's also full of evil ones. Fetch, were you even aware of THIS story from 2011? Probably not...our news media didn't exactly go out of their way to publicize it and actors and politicans weren't creating catchy hashtag phrases to drum up support for the cause... http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2011/12/nigerian-catholics-burned-to-death-in-their-cars-after-christmas-mass/#!
  11. Martin St Louis is a gutsy player...not sure I'd handle the last few days as well as he has...
  12. What the h-e-double-l is Kreider supposed to do on that play? Goalie interference? You're kidding me!
  13. I'm trying to picture your reaction to GWB pitching to Congress his plan for unmanned drones patrolling the skies of the US under the guise of keeping America safe...
  14. I am still stunned that there's even a debate over the scoring ruling on Ortiz's pop-up last night in the Rangers/Red Sox game. This is supposed to be Major League Baseball, not your 9 year old kid's city rec league game. Error all the way!
  15. It's a boy.
  16. Why do we pick and choose what's important enough to intervene in and let others fend for themselves, ira? Why stop at Nigeria? A few months ago, our president along with the secretary of state were practically set to invade Syria...then the media lost interest in the story. George Clooney's pet project was Darfur in Sudan...and we did nothing. North Korea is run by a despotic butcher...and we do nothing. Venezuela's people revolted a short time ago...I bet most folks here had no clue about that country's government putting the clamps on its citizens. Where is the line between needing to step in harm's way to protect those who can't protect themselves and burying our head in the sand? Surely it can't be simply because CNN amd MSNBC suggest what world events require our intervention, can it?
  17. ...and Victor Martinez crushes one towards South America!
  18. Congratulations to Mr and Mrs Wilbur on the birth of their 2nd child yesterday!
  19. I liked what I saw out of Providence College in this year's tournament. I think they could be a sleeper-pick next season.
  20. His avatar is still the winged wheel...
  21. Rangers yea yea!
  22. I feel like the only Red Wings fan sometimes but I know yzerman19's a fan. Whatever happened to redwing77? He used to be a regular poster here and hasn't been around in a long time (in fact, over two years).
  23. Not a fan of Crosby but that was a wicked slash to Sidney's head as he's sitting on the ice...penalty. Sheesh, ref, c'mon.
  24. I jus saw Snake's new avatar, et tu Brute?
  25. Attn: jimdahl - Can we just re-name this place Sioux-BruinsSports.com already and call it a day? Seriously, how many Bruins fans are on this web site?
