  1. Yeah Aaron, that is a good point. Unfortunately, ESPN then tries pass off Spelling Bees, Poker, and Pool as a sport. Kinda backfires.
  2. What about underground vacuum racing professionally?
  3. Ok seriously, JUMP ROPE NATIONALS?!?!?!?!?!?! you have to be kidding me. Im not saying its easy, but...isnt there something else? I guess they have a sport for everyone. Maybe I still can become a professional athlete. Well, at least ESPN isnt trying to pass billiards or poker as a sport.
  4. Ok, I know all of you are wanting and waiting to hear my review of "Miracle" because I am a student of the game (hockey) Fantastic movie. Kurt Russell as Herb Brooks did a great job. You can tell he really studied the coach and his techniques and that he put all of his ablilities into this movie. It really seemed like he cared about his role. Great hockey scenes. I hear that they got real hockey players as the actors, and it was obvious. They did a good job of giving the audience a view of what was going on in the world at the time. Actually very acurate. The scene when the players walked out to start the game against the Russians gave me chills. Great acting, atmosphere, and i could even smell the ice and feel the ice when I watched the players skating. I got tears when we won the game. To me, thats I how know its a great movie. The only things I would have changed, add a little more character development to the players, changed the camera angle on the goals, and focus more on the celebration. But even those MINOR things couldn't take away from the wonderful movie.
  5. Yep, welcome back our new handsign accoding to the cheerleaders, the tech "guns up". It unfortunately made an appereance during the bball game Friday night. I hope this is an isolated incident. Id hate for us to have to start writing letters.
  6. Its not that its dumb, its that it is conduted poorly. During a time out, and using a microphone is a pathetic way. Do it durng play. have a couple of cheerleaders in the stands on either side and hold up the signs.
  7. Ugly game!!!!! All that was said earlier needs to be worked on, and on more thing..... STOP TRYING TO SHOWBOAT WHEN THE GAME IS ON THE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw too many ally-oops attemps, flashy behind the back passes, and slam dunks. Get the game won, then show off.
  8. And that warranted a resonse why?
  9. Any 3 Doors Down fans on the board? I just found out they are playing in Whichita Falls on Thursday night. If any of you are fans, I smell midweek road trip. And if you haven't heard them they are a pretty darn good band, tust me, you would ejoy them.

  11. And why shouldn't they show enthusiasm, they could actually see some play time.
  12. I would, but won't those count toward the attendance?
  13. Im pretty sure SMUt is playing at Ford Soccer Stadium. Does anyone want to go and make some references about their perfect schedule
  14. Extremely happy. I don't hate the Yankees really, I just get tired of the fans and media's elitist attitude. But I am really happy to see Pudge get a ring. He deserves it.
  15. WORST ROAD SWEATER 1. Washington - When they first changed from the red and blues, these weren't that bad. But its time for a change. But, they changed for the worse. Not only do the logos on the road and home jerseys differ, but the colors are too opposite. White is teel and black with copper trim. Colored is Black with copper and trimmed in teel. Ditch the black, they might be bearable. Change the white jerseys to match, or change the colored jerseys back to teel. Better yet, since they are in our nation's capital, go back to red and blue. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C284%2C3877 2. Pittsburgh - Why change from the greatness of the yellow and black when you have so much history with them. Now they have black with faded gold color. Too bland. the Yellow was much brighter. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C437%2C4610 3. Phoenix - Yes the black was overused, but considering what they use now, it wasnt that bad. they have changed, and should mimick the Chevy Avalanche, and change again. They are now a brownish red and white. The closest way I can describe it, it reminds me of chili. The other thing it reminds me of I won't say on here. The logo, however, is not that bad. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C288%2C3911 4. Tampa Bay - Not that they are bad jerseys, but the colors are black with blue. Some teams can make black work, they havent been able too. They are just too plain. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C425%2C4553 5. Vancouver - Were going to be a top 3 on the worst list, but I have to give credit for originality. Navy Blue, and trimmed with burgandy, gray, and lighter blue. I have to say I miss their old jerseys. Black with red and yellow trim. I think they were one of, if not the first to start to 3rd jersey craze. They only had them for a year in the old jerseys, but it was cool. Ill see if I can find a pic. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C285%2C3889 BEST HOME (WHITE) SWEATER: 1. New Jersey http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHWHITE-002 2. Chicago http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHWHITE-028 3. Buffalo http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHWHITE-003 4. New York Rangers http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHWHITE-030 5. Montreal http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHWHITE-026 BEST ROAD (COLOR) SWEATER: 1. New York Rangers http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...HL-AUTHTEAM-030 2. Montreal http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...egory=14317,401 3. Chicago http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...HL-AUTHTEAM-028 4. New Jersey http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...HL-AUTHTEAM-003 BEST THIRD SWEATER: 1. Buffalo http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHTHIRD-001 2. Calgary http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHTHIRD-012 3. Los Angeles http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHTHIRD-008 4. Vancouver http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...L-AUTHTHIRD-008 5. Columbus no link http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...HL-AUTHTEAM-002 5. Buffalo http://teamstore.espn.com/store/sell?categ...HL-AUTHTEAM-003
  16. A tear always comes to my eye when I think of the history and pagentry behind hockey. I can't hold back everytime I think about the 1980 US Hockey team.
  17. I considered Montreal and Toronto, but aside from Vancouver, I think that the Canadian teams should always be thought of in a different light. I can't compare them to the rest of the NHL. Except for the Original 4 and then the original 6, They are on a different stage. A higher stage.
  18. 1. New Jersey Devils - Though red and black are overused and tiresome, the Devils have managed to take the two colors and make the sharpest and classiest sweaters in the NHL http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C108%2C3177 2. Chicago Blackhawks - Once again a team has managed to take the overused red and black and turn it into a sharp, good looking uniform. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C499%2C4838 3. New York Rangers - Excluding their alternate jersey, the "Broadway Blueshirts" are a classic. I don't think any other team could pull off spelling the team name diagonally as well. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...317%2C90%2C3075 4. Colorado Avalanche - Once again, excluding the 3rd jersey. Unique colors of a blue shaded teel with burgandy, combined with a unique logo. They also stray from the typical straight lines on the sleeve and base of the sweater. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C302%2C3992 5. Buffalo Sabres - Were one of the first to stray from the typical straight lines on the sweater. They manage to make black work as a primary color by offsetting it with red and gray. http://teamstore.espn.com/store/category?c...17%2C519%2C4910
  19. I know that our history's heroes are all flawed in some way, except for Christ of course. However, I heard that this new version was to portray the Texans as war mongers, evil, and as the bad guys. Hope Im wrong.
  20. Isn't this version supposed to portray the Mexicans as the good guys, or at least the Texans as not the great heroes we were taught.
  21. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!! They just started the game and they are wearing those God aweful things again. They litterally hurt my eyes. I'm sending a letter to the stars. This is ridiculous. They should never have left their original home jersey, just make an adjustment to their road ones.
  22. I was being sarcastic, you obviosuly dont know be very well. You'll know when Im pissed
  23. Darn, you guys beat me to the topic. I have to say that these are horrible. They may be one of the top 5 worst uniforms in pro sports.
  24. I think we need to hold a candlelight vigil in hopes they bring Reunion back.
  25. Ahhh yes, Im a typical Cowboys fan. If by typical you mean someone who follows them through their hard times, then yes I am. I have been a big Cowboys fan all my life. One of my earliest memories is watching a game with my dad. I think I have earned the right to be pissed and need a break from them.
