He already got his money!
The big problem with spending sprees is that guys already on the team wonder why they didn't get paid. As far as Wallace ... well he wanted that South Beach life
This is why hockey needs to be start in January every season and not October. So it Does less conflicting schedules with the NFL and no boring summer of only baseball. I think I saw a stat recently that about 97% of football players are American born so this is not going to change any time soon.
Man I couldn't stand Caillou and his dumb whining all the time. "No Rosie, that's my toy" ,I'd rather watch Barney.

Threads move too fast on the gaming side nowadays. It's so hard to have a discussion about any issue that's remotely hot because of how quickly every post gets buried. Oh well, at least I have you guys.
It's tough to argue with you on either point.
Not if it is controversial like half of mine. I often get like 5 replies because half my posts are sarcasim, jokes, or conflict with many gamers traditional ideals.
:lol
One week after his comments about how "hungry" the Dolphins are.
Dumb receivers. Just shut up and let your play and teammates/coaches do the talking for you! Player communications should not go beyond the lessons they gave in Bull Durham.
Receivers with good attitudes are so hard to come by now. And when you find a good one like Welker, he is lured by evil organizations like the Patsies.
And that's the kind of post that gets rewarded in such an environment.

Yep, and while there is a place for that it starts to get old when that is the only style of posting that's encouraged by the environment. I have no idea how to fix it, though.

I was looking at the Titan but considering the 780 is only about 8% slower for nearly $400 less, it made sense to go that route as an incremental update. I can offload my 680 for about $300 which will put the 780 at $350. It's a vanity upgrade I must admit. Very few games have really pushed the 680 for me @1080p but if I can squeeze out a smoother Metro Last Light or some of the other stuff coming down the pipe - I'm fine with it.
I'll follow the same cycle when the 880 is inevitably released though I think by that point, I'm likely to just do a complete rebuild hopefully with Haswell released.
It always a crap shoot. Some times you end up with guys willing to sacrifice everything, all the while keeping their heads down.
Then you end up with people who are crazy pants. Possibly enough to warrant serious psychiatric interventions.
Well, many posters have already found their own solution by migrating to threads like these where they can slow down and actually talk (sometimes).
Never been banned here so it is not that bad. In fact, I say nothing rude I just usually do not agree with certain ideals that gaming should not evolve past what people are used to. I won't go on much, but than again I rarely leave off-topic, and only became more active on GAF recently. My stuff is good hitokage as good as Welker catching passes from the master Peyton all day.
Yep. It's fun to read the gaming side for big news, but pointless to try and discuss anything. Not sure if that is what evilore really wants, but in high traffic times I doubt he's too bothered

2 years removed from getting a big bonus and you can't afford 50k. What a shame
It's more of a matter of health. His family would rather him be in Jail in a solitary unit until he probably realize he needs mental help. I had an uncle who was an addict, and the family came to the same conclusion. They need to hit bottom and stay there for a while before they can process what's happening and that they really need to change their lifestyle.
Maybe he needed some alone time, he's in solitary confinement on the looney side of the jail.

Judging by his behavior, every dime he earned was lottery money in that he probably spent the crap out of it.

It is so annoying how threads just disappear on the gaming side. There was, what seemed like a surprising mature discussion going on in the will Sony's claims of superiority hurt the Ps4 thread. I even posted in it but now I cant find it and when I go through my post history no such post comes up. If it strange that that thread would get deleted when the why I want MS out of the industry thread stayed open all day yesterday.
Edit: Now it is there, it just doesnt show up in my post history. So odd.

That's just throwing away money!
It's not, hence the war on megathreads.

I don't know why, but I always picture B Larry looking like Hakeem The Dream from WWF. I know this is random but I just had to share.
At least post a topical version.

Worst tackling of all time?
Even Tammy has better form than that!

I hope, "has a tendency to attempt crotch tackles" starts showing up as a con on future scouting reports.
I actually agree, though I'd like them to start in December, play 50 games, and be done by the end of March. I loved the season this year. For someone who doesn't have a team it's tough to follow a 9 month season.
Even having a home team in the NHL makes it hard to follow all the increadible amount of games with my other priorities, and interests. 50 games is a little lower than I would prefer, but it could make matchups more meaningful, and give longer breaks in between the games for analysis by fans if they were further between each other. I do not expect mass support in this from all fans, but there is a definite minority that do want a shorter season.
:lol
We wish the physics and animations in Madden were that good!
Thats what I want from next gen Madden, but we didn't get any improvement this gen and with no competition I am kind of skeptical about it for next gen as well.
Too bad most gamers are mouth breathing retards. If they really cared about gameplay then more resources would be devoted to framerates, animation and physics instead of the status quo, which is basically to create graphics that look the best during cutscenes and in pictures.

You're just mad because you can't use your family TV anymore for stuff that looks good and all your gaming has to be done on some underpowered piece of plastic on the loo.
Mine is a pretty hardcore hockey family and I was stunned that all of them totally agreed with me. The problem is that the NHL pretty much only generates revenue from the gates. And drastically reducing the number of tickets available would probably kill the league unless the more compact season resulted in a higher TV deal.
There you go with that Patriot Euro mentality. You see in America we don't live in tiny closets and our giant houses are loaded with HDTVs out of the ass. Unlike the Euros whose welfare checks were just cut in half due to austerity measures (i.e. being broke as fuck) and are limited to just one shitty 720P locally produced POS televisions, I, like most Americans, have 3 HDTVs in my house. Only one of which is a piece of shit 720 that we keep in the bedroom. I have thought about upgrading to a modern tv in my room but I hate throwing shit away for no reason and the old one still works. We also have another HDTV in the basement along with a nice 32" Sony CRT that is turned on only for old school games.You're just mad because you can't use your family TV anymore for stuff that looks good and all your gaming has to be done on some underpowered piece of plastic on the loo.
P.S. Even if I had more time to play games I would still prefer the 3DS. It is definitely underpowered but the games on it are superior to what home consoles have to offer. Which is not surprising because the same was true of the ancient DS!

Looks like the Dallas cowboys draft board was leaked, have fun with this I must go now

That's an interesting look. Thanks! Wish more teams boards would leak in the aftermath of the draft. Be curious to see the thinking behind the decisions and which teams truly follow a BPA strategy.
Judging from their board, the biggest deviation was the Center in the first and it doesn't appear to be too much of a reach on their board. Still have to question it though considering Floyd was ranked so highly for them and was still available with their pick if memory serves.
The problem will always be that they could have had Eifert, who they have as the best TE, and Fredrick. I get that they may have viewed the gap between C1 and C2 to be much larger than TE1 and TE2, so why not trade up in the second?

True. My only issue is they Floyd as a top 5 player on their board and yet they reached for a Center that they could have likely gotten in the second. Outside of that, I thought they had a pretty solid draft.

Seems that the Cowboys value a center in the first more than they would a TE in the first, and they're probably not the only ones.
I really like Eifert. Besides Austin, I thought he was the top skill position guy in the draft, and probably a better value given where he was taken. I just think it came down to them needing a center, and the position being weak in the draft. A lot of teams take UDFAs and late round guys and develop them into interior OL, so it might speak to Dallas having an issue with coaching there in the past
