Look, you can't insult the characteristics of other states and cities when your team's city has all the same things going for it regardless of where you may actually live. I only grew up in Milwaukee but have lived in Arkansas and now in Texas but I still recognize that insults hurled at Wisconsin are directed at me as well.

Yeah, of course you would say that. You live in Texas via Arkansas. That's like, 2 different flavors of redneck irrelevancy.

...And you know I'm just fucking around.

Toyota seems to be improving the build quality. Nissan? Give me a fucking break. Driving on a soccer field would be "beating up" those pieces of garbage.


Apparently Wandering Wind has never actually been to Buffalo. It's the most midwestern state out east.

Kiper doing conference call w/media

Kiper says there's a possibility Weeden could have been the first QB taken this year. "There's no QB that screams out, take me."

I have a new F-150 and an old Silverado that I use for hauling trash and manure and other filthy farm stuff. To me Ford and Chevy are miles ahead of the rest. I'd put Toyota over Dodge unless we're talking a real truck with a Cummins diesel. Fucking shame such a beautiful engine is stuck in a Dodge.

Give me a fucking break with Nissan though. Come on.

I'm not sure, because all the businesses decided downtown is the place to be, traffic flowing out of the city in the morning is pretty mild. It's bad both ways in the afternoon though from people going to do stuff at night downtown and people coming home from work.

Nobody lives in the city of the team they support here. Well, Cajunator does, but he's special.

I think all of the Jets and Giants fans do...most of the Cowboys fans surprisingly live in or near Dallas. All of the Texans fans do!

Unsurprisingly, only 2 or 3 of the Pats fans do. Pink hatters!

Galleria area 610/southwest freeway is incredibly congested too - lots of business there as well. And i guess really dangerous too... as soon as you hit the interchange there is a sign telling you to be safe because there was ~27 deaths since X amount of time

Wait, why is Mel Kiper Jr. of ESPN doing a conference call with other media outlets?

What made him the God of all draft analysis to the point rival media are heeding his opinion?

Don't get me wrong I enjoy reading his mocks but I enjoy reading tons of other mock drafts as well.

But I agree with his opinion this class is pretty weak for QBs but that still won't stop teams from overreaching. Feels good being set at the QB position.

Could never see myself in a truck. I get the poors to do all of the manual labor a truck would be needed for. And I hate people that get trucks when they no practical use for them.

I like reading mocks that don't cost money. I'm surprised there are that many people who do the Insider thing (not like his mocks don't get leaked anyway).

I bet the vast majority of Houston traffic deaths are caused by texting and driving or road rage, not alcohol. Probably mostly road rage.

One nice thing about the economy crashing is that people don't drive Hummers to work anymore (the only nice thing). Remember when you'd see H2s everywhere?

Lawn care here as well as general moving. My priority is the F150 with Ecoboost. Step dad has one and gets between 24-26 MPG in it.

Funny enough: used car lost of FULL of H2's and 3's parked right next to a lot of Smart cars.

Yeah, no way in hell I'm paying for "Insider" considering I already pay for cable, with most of that money going to ESPN (I'm probably going to cancel soon).

Fear of a GAF Planet
From si's Panthers off season preview:

Stick with the read-option, which was less broken than bogged down by Newton's lack of freedom at the line of scrimmage. The fact that Newton has run and passed for 7,546 yards and 48 touchdowns despite intense restrictions on audibling says volumes about his immense talent. It says even more about coordinator Rob Chudzinski; he went from a play caller who influenced offenses in San Francisco and Washington to a play caller whose offense failed to score more than 14 points in six of the Panthers' first 10 games. Replacing him with quarterbacks coach Mike Shula could be the move that keeps Rivera in Charlotte beyond 2013.

Have fun, Browns.

Haha I do the same with the magazines I get from my sports channels.

Also really surprised Canada hasn't tried to adopt the ESPN Insider model. I figure it must be making ESPN enough money to justify keeping it?
