every time you wear them or if not is there a sign they need washing?

He is about the only fighter that I have been willing to lay down $60 for a PPV in the last year or so and I actually see that other than a 5 second lapse that me avenged later, he has been the top heavy in the business. I do like Georges St-Pierre, but his fights are kind of like watching a great soccer team in that he is extremely skilled but does not put you on the edge of your seat too often. Anderson Silva is great, but would have lost if not for some luck and a opponent who gets himself into submissions. Fedor Emelianenko is all hype in the few times I have seen him.

So is Lesnar as dominant as he seems and can he ever get the respect of the voters?

I got to looking back and came up with a cool formula where I took the 10 best QB ratings over the last 4 years (wanted to go more, but too much turnover) and then averaged it by giving each QB %10 for each year in the top 10. Thus if they were there for 3, I took their average times 1.3, and 2 years would be 1.2. Anyway, it does not matter how I did that part, the questing is based on this below do you believe that a rookie QB should be paid more than any other position and better yet more than someone like Brady?

Here are my rankings and where each were drafted:

Peyton Manning 137.9 - 1st overall

Tony Romo 133.6- undrafted

Drew Brees 130.9- 32nd

Tom Brady 130.5- 199th

Ben Rothlisberger 122.8- 11th

Bret Farve 121.8- 33rd

Kurt Warner 121.3- undrafted

Carson Palmer 119.6- 1st overall

Aaron Rodgers 118.2- 24th

Philip Rivers 117.8- 4th

Matt Schaub 114.8- 90th

David Garrard 112.4- 108th

Donovan McNabb 111.2- 2nd overall

Jeff Garcia 110.9- undrafted

Damon Huard 107.8- undrafted

Chad Pennington 107.1- 18th

Marc Bulger 102.2- 168th

Matt Hasselbeck 100.5- 184th

Matt Cassel 98.3- 230th

Mark Brunell 95.2- 118th

I could list all the first round picks over the last 10 years and what happened to them, but this is already long enough to get the point.

As a long time Lakers fan, I believe that Showtime won 3 championships in 4 years in the 1980s and the Lakers three-peats were under John Kundla back in the 1950s and Phil Jackson 2000, 2001, 2001 and again 2009, 2010, 2011.

option 1 could be a "consolation game" so that we would know who the true best team is outside of L.A. and Miami

option 2 could be that the number 1 seeds are automatically in the conference finals and there are 8 other playoff teams who get the "fair" opportunity to advance without facing L.A. or Miami until that point.

option 3 since the playoffs are way too long anyway, just omit them for the next few years and have a championship series between L.A. and Miami

Would it be as strong a backlash as when Pau came aboard?

It seems like mail in general has really decreased with all the electronic transactions we do these days, but the pre-approved credit card solicitations keep coming.

I have decided that there are 2 options to deal with this.

1. place some other junk mail in their envelope and mail it back for fun - they pay for postage each way and get the same junk mail that you get!

2. go to one of the sites that allow you to "opt out" of these, supposedly this will at least bring a significant decrease in the credit card offers you get.

Which option do you think is best?

He is a native Texan who has coached college at Houston, Oklahoma State, and Kansas.

He coached for 7 NFL teams from 1976 til 2006.

He is the 7th head coach for the Cowboys.

He is a nice looking (according to the women), yet humble guy.

He is smarter than the media (local included) makes him out to be, he just don't want to show off that big ole' IQ thingy up in that size 8 noggin.

Oh yea, we still have the Red Jesus guy to blame if things go wrong anyways.

Anyways, let me know what you think of him. . .

after that, they are now the first to have all picks signed also.

Eugene Parker being a Cowboys fan kind of helps us some - ha ha

they should do a NFL coaches edition or at least include Jimmie Johnson as well.

Actually, I am the parent and get so upset when I see people screw the system while my daughters cannot get a dime to help them based on my income. They both had 4.0 or above, but were not in the top 10% and one is in her third year of college and having to do it all on loans. Where I get upset is that the government (robin hood $*%%$*#) seems to think that I should be responsible for my 18 and 21 year old ADULT children. While I try to help by paying insurance and help with living expenses, they are trying to make it on their own and being punished because of my having a decent career while my wife has friends who live in $400,000 houses and have had multiple bankruptcy filings somehow get their kids into private colleges for free.

If anyone knows how to advise them on getting some kind of actual aid, it would be greatly appreciated as I obviously do not have any idea on how to play the system or something.

We have as much talent as any team in the NFL, not even my boy could mess this up!

Right?

Even though they took out my country and put a cap over the biggest chance we have ever had to really get American fans to give the sport a chance, I do enjoy watching Ghana play. With Brazil (Brasil) losing earlier, there is a really good chance for them to make the finals.

How far do you think they will go?

I feel that Artentina and Brazil are the top teams still in the World Cup, does Mexico win or keep it close?

I love the Lakers, but we have to realize that they had a REALLY crappy list of coaches between Pat Riley and Jackson, in fact here it is:

Mike Dunleavy - 2 years, Randy Pfund - 66 games, Bill Bertka - 2 games, Earvin Magic Johnson - 16 games, Del Harris - 4 years, Bill Bertka - 1 game, Kurt Rambis - 37 games, Phil Jackson - 5 years - 3 championships, Rudy Tomjanovich - 43 games, Frank Hamblen - 39 games, Phil Jackson - 5 years - 2 championships

that would be more strong evidence that Europe is no longer the very best in the sport, it is South America now.

Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, and Argentina have a combined record of 10-0-2 that is 10 wins, no loss, and 2 ties.

I've been avoiding this arena for most of the last year due to biased opinions, but just wondered if the Giants fans will still be sitting in front of their televisions during the playoffs. They always seem to think that the "Big Smurf" works harder and has more talent than everyone else, but the Big question is who do they root for now???

BQ: Were the Giants a bit lucky or just a one year wonder?
