  1. So - the rosters are missing FAU and FIU as of earlier today? That's what the kids are sayin' on the interwebs...
  2. So its hard to imagine us improving, but we can only improve on D? Awesome.
  3. I seriously did go and seriously did see that guy. He was a very passionate cheerer though, so I didn't give him any crap. I can make 14 jokes out of the second half of your post.
  4. Did you go on Saturday? Were you the guy in the Yao Ming jersey and Astros hat one section over from me?
  5. Great video just linked to in the Newberg Report: http://www.viddler.com/explore/TheSportingBlog/videos/8/
  6. Thank you sir. I had a chance to meet the nun of "Dead Man Walking Fame" towards the end of high school (and a few folks incorrectly sentenced to death row who now speak against it) and it was the beginning of me researching and changing my entire opinion of the death penalty. I know I am dealing with abstracts and am not sure if I would be strong enough to appeal to mercy if someone murdered those I love, but I am glad that I can at least wrestle with the issue from all sides. In other words, I actually care about a topic beyond fluffy kitten jokes for once.
  7. SE-66 just took the train off the tracks - hooray!
  8. Slate has two good takedowns too - both with links to other good ones: http://www.slate.com/id/2195037/ http://www.slate.com/id/2195037/ Just curious to see if anyone supported this viewpoint. I think there can be some tightening of the rules around speculation, but the 20-60% price jumpdue to speculation doesn't sit well.
  9. I made the mistake of using this as a jumping off point for the general topic - much like everyone else does in every thread on this page. Now I'm gonna go smoke my dope pipe and burn a flag.
  10. I may have missed them, but any thoughts on the oil speculation debate? What do you guys think of this: http://www.stopoilspeculationnow.com/
  11. I'm far from liberal - but I guess since I don't hit a Republican party talking point, I must be a dope smoking anti-christ hippy. I actually go to church every week - if not more- love 'Merica and have a close relative who has served for years as an elected Republican official. I frequently argue with liberal siblings but have trouble identifying with either side right now. But hey, nice tits on your avatar! Here's one way to measure it, but it doesn't have the hard science of your method: http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.php?did=168
  12. If the system can't secure this person in a best effort - especially without releasing him from jail, then use the death penalty. Thank you for letting me know that prison reform won't happen tomorrow. I really thought we were on to that - thank god you showed up to clear it up.
  13. Letting him out is where most of the trouble is happening. Why not spend the money to create a system that can secure and control him rather than inefficiently put him to death? I think the death penalty should only be allowed if a strong system cannot corral him or keep him from being a threat to others and happen to think a nice life of solitary could accomplish that. I also like the idea of him suffering through a wasted life for hurting so many. Als,o I know I am in the minority and I am glad this is civil. Thank you sir.
  14. Knee-jerking after three weeks is so badass.
  15. Some queer ass Patrick Roy fan should never be acknowledged on American soil. Therefore, the Risk Brother won.
  16. Cute - but my point was why not secure them for life and take away the possibility of a release? It doesn't satisfy the lust for an eye for an eye so...well, then it won't be popular here at all. The death penalty is not deterring crime, so why not invest the resources to secure those with life sentences?
  17. Or your mom's house....bazzzing!
  18. From a 2000 article in the Palm Beach Post now housed here: http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.php?&did=2602 Just sayin'...
  19. Yet they are almost a shoe-in to win 7-9 games and win a bad bowl again.
  20. Whoops - I totally butchered the name of Coach Blobasaurus in the thread title.
  21. Orsini is staying a pony! ND is still open - get those resumes and cover letters ready. Don't forget to have a friend proofread them first!
  22. One things for sure - he certainly left the field on a high note. Tasty, let me taste your tears one last time
  23. All I got is a Wii and an old XBox. I'll play with myself! /Shows self out.
