  1. Burleson played for the vikings, Seahawks , and made many millions of dollars. He's got a media career going, was on NFL network quite a bit. 

     

    It would probably cost him a lot, to play in the CFL.

     

    Glad to hear Muamba made the team, and sorry to hear about Matthews.

     

    I'm surprised Same didn't make the team. He made a lot of big plays. The guy looked like he could play well enough to be effective in the NFL.

  2. "TSN in general has this real bad habit of deciding the script for the game in advance and sticking to it come hell or high water."

     

    espn radio does this.

     

    They start in on a player, or subject and beat it into tiny fragments, over days, weeks and months. when lebron was leaving cleveland, that was virtually all espn radio morning show talked about, for months.

     

    don't know how anyone can listen to it. and they drool and fawn over these players in a really odd way. just saying the player's name seems to give them some weird kind of jolly. it's actually creepy.

  3.  

    TSN lost hockey so why do they need 5 specialty channels? Is this the beginning of PPV for the CFL as they'd put the CFL on say, TSN 5? 

     

    You absolutely *NEED* one channel dedicated to lumberjack / strongman competitions .. simply not enough time in the day for that sort of stuff.

     

    you mean to say you don't enjoy watching some huge guy do a hundred yard dash pushing a wheel barrow with a car engine in it? What's wrong with you?

     

     

    I vote for Australian lawn darts championships and international tiddly-winks.

     

     

     

    I vote for the Irish sport of hurling, (not the one caused by drinking) 

  4. Made into a big deal by the endless requirement of US sports media for a new hero,

     

    for something to rant and rave about 24 hours a day. Every year, it's someone.

     

     

    did you see the  picture of him with folding money rolled up into a tube, In some bathroom? 

     

    what's that for?

     

    He never huddled in college or high school, I heard yesterday during the game.

     

    just take the ball, chuck it up, or run. 

     

     

    I predict he will not learn to be a quarterback in the NFL. 

     

    If he even survives one season. He might be getting hit a lot.

  5. I saw a bit of Muamba in the earlier game…

     

    he looked really good. diving through to make a tackle in the backfield, catching and grabbing a receiver on the outside, he was 

     

    all over the field, and did not look out of place at all.

     

    wonder how mathews is doing, I don't think he has many catches. they have a receiver they drafted

     

    that got some good press.

  6. Netley eh?

     

    I've had some contact with netley colony. (got some cabinets)

     

    my experience, friendly smart people. some very funny guys.  Some guys that love ice fishing. Nice place.

     

    I will say I was not surprised at all, since stereotypes

     

    are always based in ignorance.

     

     

    If only everyone in this world practiced non violence as they do……

     

    we'd all be a lot better off.
