Basically a player can't mess with the receiver's body as the ball approaches the receiver. The defender can catch or bat the ball away before it reaches the receiver, and once the receiver touches, the ball, he can tackle the receiver.
Later this year eBay will roll out "One Click Bid," which should boost a buyer's chances of winning during the final 15 minutes. EBay also plans to streamline its "My eBay" service and speed its cumbersome checkout process.
And it is beta testing features called "Snapshot View," the e-commerce equivalent of window shopping; "Best Match," an automatic sorting option; and "Countdown," which features improvements in real-time auction monitoring.

If that were so, within 15 years there would be no other commerce but eBay. It always cracks me up when a business experiences "slow or no" growth and acts like they LOST money. eBay made a shitload, a SHITLOAD of money between last year and now, but it isn't a 7,000% increase, so they must be doing something wrong.It'll be SOOOOOOOOO nice when they collapse.

Agent Cooper wrote:Hey Killjoy, My Giants are coming to the UK in a couple of weeks to play the Dolphins in London. Seems like the NFL is trying to export the sport to the English and Europeans. Do you think many people will attend?I don't know how much interest there is in American Football abroad. From what I understand, it will be tough to get alot of people interested in the UK, as soccer is pretty much the national sport of choice and is rooted in the culture. Thoughts?

Why didnt the jerk just kick a field goal and be done with it. A lot of Pats fans were saying that a two touchdown lead wasnt enough against the Cowboys and wanted to make sure that they didnt pull off another miracle win like they did against the Bills. What a bunch of crap. The whole stupid BS story about what Phillips supposedly said to the media about Belicheat's three titles being tainted by his spying antics was impetus for him to run up the score. I hope Indianapolis destroys them when they meet up next month.
