Did you hear the clips from Williams' meetings before the 49ers game? No way any of the penalties were being lessened after that came out. WAY over the line. Sickening really. Dude should never coach again at any level.

Nope. I can only imagine though. He's been suspended indefinitely so you never know, maybe he doesn't coach again after all.

why is this sickening? I really don't get it.
this has been happening since sports have been around. You go after a weakness.
the biggest thing is that this has now come to the forefront but to think this never occurs and this is a new concept is crazy

next time kick out all the camera people because we all know there will be a next time.

I loved ROTJ! The song at the end gives me goosebumps... and I actually liked that they put Anakin from the prequels in ending...

And without ROTJ there would be no Warwick Davis.. The best little person actor ever...

You obviously haven't been watching Peter Dinklage in Game of Thrones. He steals every scene he is in...

I know its not popular, but I like what I like... BTW.. Have you ever heard of the "Machete" way to watch star wars to make it exciting again, or the best way to intorduce it to new people....

First IV A new Hope (almost a must)
Second V Empire Strike Back (ends with Vader dropping the bomb)
Third II Clone Wars
Fourth III Revenge of the Sith (Skip I. This acts as a flashback, and introduces the emperor's real threat and makes the trilogy more about Anakins redemption)
Fifth VI Return of the Jedi (wraps everything up nicely, and it makes more sense when viewing CW and ROTS as flashback/backstory of vader)

It makes for an interesting arch... With a new hope your left with that positive feeling, then ESB, CW, and ROTS things spiral out of control and the bad guys are winning, then ROTJ for the ultimate "UP".

If you want a better description then the short one I did, go here...http://static.nomacheteju...ng.com/machete_order.html

I'll stick my my original trilogy. I'll never be able to watch those awful prequel 'movies', though I'll spare everybody the diatribe.

actually the movies are watchable after you watch plinketts reviews
then you can nitpick every terrible thing done and it becomes a space comedy

Does anyone else feel cheapened by the fact we have to face the penguins, while rangers get Ottawa, Boston gets Washington, and Devils get Florida....
- RooNosHockey


No not at all. I'm glad the Flyers are playing the Pens and am looking forward to a great series.

thank you kind sir but i was trying to dig into why you thought it was funny
- 2Real


i was laughing because i've actually thought of these "contractors" who built the death star. and the comment just kind of caught me by surprise and i interpreted it as if you were attempting to be funny. it seems now that your comment was not made with humor in mind.

yes, it is. i saw some mid 90s tv footage the other day of a local sports talk show. al was on the panel in full mullet mode.
- hammarby31


You guys should get Jagr to grow his back again, He was the kind of the mullets. His mullet was the source of his magical talents in the 90's...plus the shorter the mullet got later in his Pens career, the more of whiny prima donna he became...

And what does everyone think of this? 3.5 is a good price, but is anyone concerned about his knees?

Not at all concerned about his knees.

According to him he won't have the gas money to make it back out here But we didn't get delivery from that place for like a year after that and used my wife's cellphone number anytime we ordered to be safe.

I could have called and complained but I just get hung up about messing with people's jobs. Never know how bad they need it and how desperate they can get. Something like that I;ll let go and yes I do tip about 5 dollars when we get delivery. Especially today gas is so high.

cause you can't tell them to go you there and kill a wounded animal so instead of being sharks they become sheep
