Yeah, of course it was the refs fault. It had nothing to do with Boller throwing a bad interception at a crucial point, nor the Ravens defensive coordinator calling a bad timeout at a crucial point, or the Ravens offense suddenly not being able to move the ball in the 4th Q, or the Ravens...

Ok, I'm lost. What does this obituary have to do with ZZZzzzzzzz? :confused:

MUSLIM TEDDY BEAR HAS PAWS CHOPPED OFF SUDAN was facing international sanctions last night after hacking off the little paws of a three year-old teddy bear. The cuddly toy was found guilty of blasphemy after taking the name of the prophet Muhammad, in defiance of the country's strict...

I think Zzzz moved to Russia: http://news.aol.com/story/_a/sect-holes-up-in-cave-to-await-doomsday/20071115174909990001?ncid=NWS00010000000001

Tik, try a Swiffer sweeper. It will take a whole 90 secs to clean a large room with hardwood floors.

After the first half, I really thought the Pats were done. Indy offense was doing exactly the same thing they had done back in January, wearing the Pats down and controlling the clock. The Pats defense was missing tackles all over the place, while the Indy defense (which really impressed me) was...

If it is true that home field advantage is worth a touchdown, I have a hard time believing that the Colts would be 12 1/2 point underdogs if they were playing at Gillette stadium instead of at Indy. I think this will be a slugfest, and Indy has shown in the AFC Championship game that they have...

If anyone thinks that the Patriots are running up the score, then just wait until the next time they play Mangini's Jets, then you'll really see what it means to run up the score. You think that Bill is going to let Brady take a knee with 10 secs left in a 50pt blow out? No way, he'll have him...

What is more embarrassing for a team. 1. Losing by 50pts 2. Losing by 30 pts and knowing that the other team took it easy on you during the 2nd half. If I were a player, I'd much rather the other team gave everything they had for as long as they could rather than 'take it easy' on me...

I agree. With further thought, the sliding friction would theoretically be possible, but not likely in practice. The rolling friction example is correct. The question is really whether or not you can get forward movement to create lift. The answer is yes. Try putting a wheelchair on a treadmill...

As long as you can create enough thrust to overcome the force of friction between the tires and the runway, theoretically you could take off. Another way to look at this is to imagine that you keep the wheel brakes on, then ramp up the thrust. The wheels will not move, but the plane eventually...

What makes you think the Pats can score 40+ pts, when they have only been able to rack up 30+ pt games so far. I think 38-10 (...again) is a much more reasonable score. Plus, Bill won't want to run the score up too much against his old buddy, Romeo, just in case he starts whining like a Jet.

Zzzz, could it be that the league does not trust its own employees not to leak (sell) the information to other teams? As for what Belichick did, I think it was a deliberate move on his part to get his team pumped up, angry and feeling like underdogs, since everyone was making them heavy...

Surf, I'm happy to see that you've been reading "How to be a Paid Chatroom Guru 101" You deftly managed to leave your position open and closed both at the same time. Had the market come back down during your extended absence from ET, I am quite sure you would have been back here claiming that...

If you throw up a long term MA (eg, a 100 period MA on a 5min chart) on a chart of $TICK, you'll see that before the change, the MA would sit around 200-300 level. Since the change, it sits around Zero, as you would expect with the change. This may affect some traders entries/exits, if using...

There is no "$299 4gb" Ipod. It would help if you told us which kind of Ipod you are looking for. I'm assuming you mean the new Ipod Touch (8gb) @ $299. If that is the case, it will not be available anywhere until late September. If you order from Apples Canada website here...

There were 1130 PAT's attempts last year in the NFL, and only 10 were missed. Of that 10, I would suspect that most of them were due to either a botched snap, or the kicker slipping (as happened to NE kicker last year). Not quite what I would consider "a lot of blocked extra points". The result...

On a similar theme, I've always felt that the extra point after a touchdown is a waste of time. How many are actually missed over the course of a season? Either do away with it completely and award 7 pts for a touchdown (unless they decide to go for an extra 2 pts, in which case award 6pts), or...

Anyone notice that this thread has become a 'Sticky' in Chit Chat, along with the 2 'Jokes' threads. This is proof positive that mods are human after all, and have a sense of humor. :D
