But for having him get hurt on purpose...well that's Buddy Ball....and I really think there is no place for it anywhere in professional sports...well maybe in the UFC...-Len

Sports agents are such tools....and athletes are such children for blindly following them into ditches like suicidal lemmings. Seriously, reading the wiki entry for TO, I see a lot of bullshit antics, inappropriate celebrations after TDs, and ridiculous statements. No illegal drug use, beating up women, killing anyone, driving while drunk, shooting guns, etc. The guy's an ass but not the main stain on the sport...more like a tiny ketchup stain tucked into a corner, not the 6 inch long oil stain across the front of your suit jacket (otherwise known as the Rae Carruth).And speaking of which, anyone else getting tired of the constant "Delay of game" penalties that the refs seem almost embarrassed to call when an athlete celebrates a play? Yeh it cuts down on the ridiculous antics, but NFL-No Fun League has never been more appropriate. I always enjoy the Chad Johnson or TO goofiness, as well as the Lambeau Leap, etc. Pretty soon they'll just have the games played in a hermetically sealed dome, with the fans watching outside on big screens, so as not to interfere with the "game process"....

Sadly its all about wins and losses and zero integrity.-Len

Sir Kill Alot wrote:Ouch, Mike bringing out the shovel...So we threw a few snowballs at Santa one year and we have a court system setup under the stadium to process offenders right on the spot... We really aren't that bad.... To say that he is not the best on Dallas would be a stretch. I would bet Romo is having the year he is having because of TO. Wait till they see some adversity...A loss to Green Bay could be a tipping point. -Len

I cant understand how Ohio State was able to get back into the BCS picture after their lackluster season. They didnt play anyone good. LSU at least I can fathom. They may have two losses but at least they played some quality teams.Too bad Georgia and LSU are in the same conference. In my opinion they are the only two teams that really deserve a shot at the national championship.
