Yeah - but a guy like that would never even talk to a little school like ol' North Texas....

I'll answer your question with another question: What's it like to hate America? Seriously, that's a valid concern but count me in the group that is optimistic that we will get good production out of the backfield.

Seriously, he's not as bad as everyone thinks. As the brother of a Falcons enthusiast, I've watched him in person a few times and he has issues with timing, but as a change-of-pace bench option or trick play specialist, he is a good pick up. Plus, unlike Leonard Little or Dante Stallworth -- no humans killed!

TAKE THIS GENERIC OVER-PLAYED STUPID SPORTS POINT SERIOUSLY! West of the rockies, you're on live with generic football man to discuss cliche topics! up next, did Brett Favre make the right call? Where do the vikings go from here? Vikings fans - we want to hear from you!

I thought he became president and died.

I can afford an oil-based painting of Burt Reynolds giving my mother a Rusty Trombone that could be displayed in Dr. B's office, but that doesn't mean it's a good investment.

I was boiling it down for joke's sake - I give you more credit than that. But folks who have read the board know that I share the view that the billboards and other cost-effective ads don't have any kind of justifiable ROI to them. Your stated goal is to build awareness. Awareness of what? A football stadium 45 minutes away where people grill? A team that is improving, but still coming out of hitting rock-bottom? Can't the papers and TV deals accomplish that same goal? Can't the bump in press if we win/improve/play strong accomplish that. I don't see any kind of ROI on buying up all this ad space you talk about now. It seems like something that needs to be done after a foundation that has yielded tangible results is in place.

So in summary, the product may still suck, but more posters will fix it. The money is better spent in PR/Promotions until we have something worth discussing. Look how Pony Up backfired on SMU after they sucked for two years.

You should spend more time with Marshawn Lynch - well unless you hate concealed guns or getting hit by a car. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Agreed - and hopefully no reason to get mad after.

You've just been so mad lately. We worry.

If I had a dollar...

I think he and Richard Jefferson just wanted to be back in the same state.

$4 torpedo. Second for a dollar.

When did you just lose it, Rick? Is it the politics? You can tell me - this is a safe house. The democrats can't hurt you on this part of the board.

Simply freaking amazing! Judged, and already condemed by basic 6th grade literacy.

That's a season out of Brandon McCarthy. I just don't think we need to give any guys up for Lee. He gets what is probably an unfair meh for me. He's had two good years and a bunch of okay years when that team was actually good where anyone with decent stuff could win 10-15 games. He is light years behind what Halladay is and, if you think in terms of the future, is about the same to me as taking a flyer on Sheets when he is healthy next year. If money is scarce, there are much better ways to allocate it.

For Lee - no. He has never pitched well here. People say Halladay hasn't, but it's not the degree that Lee has failed every time he goes to Arlington.

Does the Seattle trade remove Washburn? I'm confused.

Strong, definitive words. Lofty even. I'd possibly consider maybe following you to hell and back.

Director of entitlement? Sounds like some of you Dems. AmIright? AmIright?

Well that seems fair and similar.

I thought it was a Real Sex reference.
