Can you website designer people, you people, stop making the desktop version of pages look the same as the mobile version. Use the horizontal space!
You mean you don't like 70% of your screen as whitespace on either side?
What site(s) are you talking about?

Sorry the widest I'll go is 998px usually. Its intended for as many people as possible to use. Resolutions are widly different so we try to stay in the same ballpark with what our google analytics tells us. My company caters to older people and women, two demographics that don't usually have higher end computers. So we have can't do much cutting edge stuff. I don't have any html5 experience really (I did just graduate though). Gotta support IE 8/9. Ugh. It also makes mobile versions of the phone a little easier to use without having to build new stylesheets to detect mobile browsing. I would love to do that but at the current job I'm at I'm the only programmer on two sites, so its not happening for now at least.

Giants Thursday game update:
- Starters will play 12-15 snaps total. Even if Coughlin doesn't see what he wants, that's all they're going to get.
- There will be multiple offensive line combinations used throughout the game to get folks rep and see what they want to settle on.
- Demontre Moore practiced for the first time in two weeks but it doesn't appear as though he will play Thursday. Look for him to be there for the opener.
- Cooper Taylor will get his first preseason game reps this Thursday (no IR for him then which will likely change my final 53)
- QB order for Thursday: Eli, Nassib, Carr and Painter. Be nice to see Nassib get some reps with a better line in front of him.

This is from SBN's Rams website. They have such nice long form stuff, but their team pages can look awful. This is just one example. Lots of tech sites do this

Blame Apple. Shitty aspect ratio from like 1952 causing all this madness.
God damn. We really can't keep anyone back there. That sucks, I like Harris and what he did last season.
Well, for one, the banner ads on the sides of the page are the cost of doing business on the web. But more to your point, you really don't want your content area stretching much larger than 650px-700px wide simply because it gets difficult to read.
Well fuck
Who the hell is this Ramirez guy brought in? Why are they taking about Masthay doing kickoffs
Someone @ BSPN wrote an article that really sucked Lacy's balls. Most talented back in the draft kind of stuff.
Because ESPN is so often wrong their endorsement is pretty much the kiss of death. Its almost as bad as a Peter King prediction.
Hopefully King continues to pick the Patriots and Brett Farve to meet in the Superbowl and ignores us completely!
Bedard had a column praising Ben, but since linking to PK's site is worse than murder or slut shaming, I won't link it

Nobody even cares about the Steelers anymore. Its amazing how quickly theyve faded from the consciousness of the the general fan after a shitty year or two.
I had to use Google to find out who that fat fuck was.
I don't the look of his face and if he works for King he must be a moron.
The only question is now that MMQB has endorsed Ben is when he will get hurt.
No one ever cared about the Steelers. We were never the media darlings. And we like it that way!

Yep. I have no use for desktops. It helps that I don't give a crap about PC gaming anymore.

BULLSHIT. I've seen so much shit on TV about the Steelers over my lifetime.

He was going to get hurt game 1 no matter what, the only question is how well will he be able to play through it.

For bionic. 3rd place for Steelers and 8-8 record. Just what you want

Dude can be pretty good, but he never got over the nagging injury bug. Think he was healthy for 2 or 3 games at Alabama (all at the end :lol).
Could very well be the best in this past draft (helps that it was an average quality RB draft).
We only get mainstream coverage when Ben rapes someone.
We haven't been the flavor of the month for a long time, and I would argue we never really were. Last year it was RG3. The year before it was our Lord Tebow.
The Steelers style of football is too boring to get that kind of coverage.

Bulk mostly. My network is portable like hell what with a laptop, iPad, and phones that can do everything. I even have internet on the Wii U.
I only sit at the PC to do spreadsheet work now. No need to dedicate half a room to a terminal.
I'm gonna build a HTPC for all of my steam games and bust down my traditional desktop. It's a relic.
"The preseason isnt just invaluable to rookies and practice squad candidates; its a testing ground for the starters. Want to know what were made of in Seattle? Watch our first defensive drive last week in Green Bay. Aaron Rodgers came out in a no-huddlesurprising to us, but not a shock after seeing it on film and playing Peyton Manning the week before. Rodgers found Jermichael Finley over the middle for 22 yards on the sixth play of the drive for a first down, and with our backs at the North end zone, we shut them down. Brandon Mebane got a stop and Rodgers threw incomplete twice, with the Packers settling for a field goal. Giving up three points was a net loss for us, but it was a small victory in moment of adversity; a real confidence builder. The game made us better as a football team, and in Seattle, we play every game like it counts, so I wouldnt trade any of them. (People think thats an exaggeration, but its the truth: Its such a competitive environment under Pete Carroll; Im an All-Pro and I still feel like Im fighting for my job every day.)"

Ugh. Already?
To be honest, I think Lacy's quite a bit better anyway. But after his inevitable injury we'll be back to trotting out practice squad scrubs and making drunken 3 am phone calls to Ryan Grant's house.

Dolphins cut last year's starting FB, Jorvorskie Lane.
http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolp...hins-start-roster-trim-with-starter-lane.html
It's pretty obvious that the team is getting away from the use of a traditional FB so this isn't too surprising, but I did like what he brought to the Dolphins. Hope he lands somewhere.

Does a defense for this even exist?

Sounds like typical Saints/Packers.
4th and 3 with 30 yards to go

Fear from the people in the stands to the left and right of the goalposts, for sure.

Ah yes I knew I was forgetting someone.
Thanks to the possibility of this happening Minnesota just moved past Ohio in the states I would never want to live in.

Still not as bad as Florida though.

I am amazed that Jeff and Vinny of Giantbomb dont know if the Packers stadium is a dome or not.

All of the northern states are the same, Minnesota just has the worst accent.
