You Gotta Love Pro Athletes
hickoryhouse replied to KRAM1's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Dukes is pretty much a jack ass but I would be willing to say that ther are a good amount of "Jason Wittens" out there, but the reason that you don't hear about them is that they do good things and charitable things and don't ask for the publicity because they don't want or need it. Hell in Dallas alone there are several great athletes that are great people, Jason Witten, Michael Young, Dirk, Josh Hamilton just to name a few -
Is Dirk Playoff Soft
hickoryhouse replied to KRAM1's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Dirk is not a soft player despite the constant national jabs to the contrary. In my opinion I would like to see him take it to the rim a little more but that is just not his game. His shot was off last night and you have got to give SA a hand for taking him out of the game. They are and have always ben a great defensive team and this time the flexed that defensive muscle on Dirk. -
Ignorant Hate Speech
hickoryhouse replied to hickoryhouse's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
So you agree with her ignorance? wow... You have always made me think with your responses so somehow I thought that you would see through her hate speak. I have to admit I am a bit surprised. -

I never had any feelings towards her and her talents either pro or con until today. -
Cell Phone Help
hickoryhouse replied to GoMeanGreen1999's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
I have an iphone, and I love it, it is actually pretty business friendly and email works great. Call quality is good however it tends to drop calls alot more than my blackberry did on Verizon -
Boom !

I like the Madden, My Grandfather hated him, in fact I learned how to cuss listening to him get pissed off at Madden! Lots of good memries there, but somewhere my Grandfather is a very happy man -
And Lacrosse, or LAX, is an awesome awesome sport! great to play, and great to watch. Most people don't know much about it which invokes alot of ignorant responses but in fact it is a fun game to watch, very physical and pretty violent. I played a little in High School and had a great time. I haven't had the pleasure of watching our very own team but I am looking forward to a chance to do that. Stupid SMU

What happens if TD wins 6 games this year comes back next year and wins 7 and has this team going in the right direction, good recruits etc... What does RV do with TD contract? Does he get an extension? Does he make more money? how much? JJ down in Dallas is making retarded money and I know that we are not going to be paying that, but I am curious what the percieved commitment level is for the future pay scale of our coaches.

I had a blast out there, thanks for putting this together I cannot wait for next year! ANd I suck at basketball but I am definitely in!

Tax Day Tea Party
hickoryhouse replied to KRAM1's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
And I guess that is the point of the tea parties. We will all take our share of the lumps, but I don't think that the lumps we will be taking are necessary, I do not want my government able to dictate the business decisions of private industry, nor do I believe that the founders thought that the federal government should wield that power. The result of all this additional spending for projects, bailouts, redistribution etc. is higher taxes to pay for programs that are not needed, wanted by a large portion of this country, nor mandated by the constitution. I do not believe that the founding documents have ever given the government the power to essentially fire the CEO of a company, Wagoner with GM. I, like most conservative leaning people, were not happy with the spending habits of George W Bush and many spoke out against them for quite some time. What Mr. Obama is doing with his spending in his first 100 days is unprecedented and leads me to believe that there is much more to come! That makes me nervous and I feel that it is about time that the conservatives finally use our right to peacefully assemble to make our concerns heard. -
Tax Day Tea Party
hickoryhouse replied to KRAM1's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
I find it interesting and awesome that the republican, or conservative side of the political ticket is organizing and creating a public outcry for the first time I can remember. I am used to hearing the Liberals rally, and demonstrate and make a big deal out of the injustices that they find in a particular administration or government. For the first time I can remember, and I am sure that someone will tell me where I am wrong, the conservatives are making their presence felt. Good Job!!! I will be at the Dallas Tea Party.... -
The book i called Freakanomics and it is by Steven Levvitt I believe who is an economist at MIT. The point he is making is that Drug dealers live with their mothers because most of the money for the crack dealers go up the chain to the people on the top of the chain and the dealers themselves don't get much, if any money from it...

Americorps
hickoryhouse replied to eulesseagle's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
I'm sorry but.... Mandatory service requirement? Is it just me or are these the same people that were falsely and maliciously claiming that Bush was going to reinstate the draft in order to scare people about his dictatorial tendencies? Apart from the guns, what is the difference with this? This seems very hypocritical to me. -
As much as I want a playoff system instead of the BCS, shouldn't congress focus on more important issues? I think coach K had a point...

Clear!
hickoryhouse replied to UNTflyer's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
especialy with the Jalapenos -
am really excited about baseball this season too! As far as McCarthy goes, I don't remember exactly who but I think it was Danks that we traded for him and Danks then went out and posted an around 3.0 ERA forthe following year, if we don't get something out of that guy I am going to be very upset. I do think that we made a great deal in the Volquez for Hamilton trade, potential Cy Young winner for a potential MVP.... comes out a wash so far,

Oh No Not Again
hickoryhouse replied to eulesseagle's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Sorry about that... Working and posting at the same time doesn't work well with math, or in general for that matter. Yes I mis-spoke, 1/24th Sorry -
The past 8 years under bush have been fuel for critcs and have divided this country. Electing Obama, thus far, has not done anything to improve this situation. We nee delected officials like this guy to stand up and make people listen! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> And because i know that embedded objec thing won't work, here is the link to the same place
