I'm surprised it was just a torn muscle. He did not perform any miracles when he played in the CFL either.

Also, I can honestly say that I have never ever in my entire life have ever seen anything like when Miami punted in the third quarter and the ball stuck into the turf straight up and down like it was a lawn dart. What a joke.That ass whip ofa game in London this year (again the poor Dolphins) was pretty awful conditions.....but nothing like the Monday night game. Did they same they had just replaced the field or something? With what? Mud? I usually enjoy watching games in extreme conditions, but this was ridiculous.On a sadder note, and that I am Skins fan or a Sean Taylor fan, but I must say that I was very sad to see that he passed away this morning from the gunshot wound. What a shame.

And if all I have is a machete, I'm NOT confronting ANYONE in my house at that hour. And apparantly this wasn't the first time his place had been broken into or burglarized. I don't think we've heard the last about this story, it sounds, I don't know, like there's something weird going on here. Could be wrong, but it will be interesting to see what happens in the investigation.Mike B.

I really hate assholes that feel like they are entitled to stuff YOU have paid for yourself.....because they are too lazy, stupid or just larcenous to bother to make their own money.Mike B.

But I wanted to thank my opponents for a blast of a season, and for letting a girl play with the big boys. You are gentlemen, every one! And may the best team win!

However... the other five teams I was tied with all lost - so I vaulted from 12th into 7th, and my season continues. RegardsMike
