  2. But doesn't that just de-value the Heisman more if the winner can't play in the NFL? The Heisman has NOT had a good run lately and really the last stand could be Carson Palmer. I hate hearing about how so many, Heisman winners suck in the NFL. So what. It's for the college player of the year, not who will make the best NFL player.
  3. Jason White isn't the best player in the country. Hell, he may not even be in the top seven. It's not for the best player in the country. It's never been given to the best player in the country. It's given to the player of the year, which in most cases happens to play for one of the best teams. Which is what it should be, because their putting up numbers in games that really matter. If someone wants to make a case for any off the other finalists than fine. I'm a fan of Fitzgerald. I'v followed him since his Sophmore season in High School. He would of been just has deserving as White. Same goes for Manning, and Perry. What bothers me, is this non-sense that White didn't deserve the award. Look at his numbers, look at what his team did. Despite what some people think, OU didn't have has great of offensive talent has some people say they had. People can't overlook the importance, White had on OU this season.
  4. I don't understand why individual countries, would want to join what basically ends up being a United States of Europe.
  5. Taking all kinds of bids takes along time. So giving the contract to Haliburtion immediatley saved money, and time.
  6. I can see at least Canada being allowed to bid on smaller contracts. The new PM has said he wants to improve relations with the U.S., and alot of times President Bush gives in a little in situations like these.
  7. It's fixed. Have prove of that. Also no true champions? Tell that to Ohio St last year, or maybe Notre Dame in 1988. There's plenty of other teams who aren't true champions.
  8. The rumors tended to be more Gammons, and Starks making suggestions in what trades made sense. One was Jones to Arizona, for Mantei. I guess it it's proven Mantei's elbow isn't a concern, than I guess do it.
  9. Pettite had to pitch in the American League is entire career.It's different ball game over there. He also likes to mix in 5 pitches during his starts, so his numbers aren't gawdy has they could be. He's also shown over a number of years he can be a top flight starter, Vazquez has yet to do that.
  10. Don't count out the Braves just yet. There's still plenty of solid starting pitchers, and Bobby Cox is one of the best regular season managers in the game.
  11. It's a possibility that Auburn/Alabama could play in the National Championship. If I remember right, Oklahoma/Nebraska played in the Orange Bowl back in 1978. That didn't really have any national championship implications, but it is similiar.
  12. Looks at all 4 finalist. See's all of them had bad games when their teams lost. For some reason though Jason White's bad game is reason enough to ignore 40 TD's, and 8 int's.
  13. She may want to drop the charges, but can't authorities press charges against Brown. Considering all the problems with the law he's had, I'd consider it a distinct possibility he actually faces a signifcant amount of jail time.
  14. Ha...Urlacher would of been out of postition, and Ahman Green would gone right up the middle for a 30 yard TD.
  15. Don't trust Ortiz Red Sox fans. He was hurt for large number of games for the Twins, and honestly I think last had alot too with wanting to get a long term deal.
  16. This is out there. IMO...it's OU's defense with all the superstars. The offense has a whole is outstanding, but individually it lacks a true superstar. So White deserves alot more credit this season for OU's outstanding offensive season, than many give him credit for.
  17. Arizona=7 Indianapolis Tennessee Kansas City Tampa Bay New England Minnesota N.Y. Jets St. Louis San Francisco Oakland LOCK Denver Carolina Dallas Green Bay New Orleans Miami
  18. Eli Manning had 1 year at QB in where Ole Miss actually had a good season has a team. They underachieved the other years. Nebraska's 1994 team received criticism for beating out what many people consider the better Penn St. team.
  19. Don't think Powell has any intention of running for President. He's said he's getting older, and his wife is against it has well.
  20. Someone by stock in Louisville Slugger...
  21. *bump* Anyone like Dick Vitale? His constant ass kissing of the coaches is sickening. In Dickie V's mind, they never do anything wrong, and if a team doesn't play well, it's certaintly not their fault.
  22. Seen this way to many times with college coaches. Usually they end getting a 3 yr extension on their contract, and nice little pay raise.
  23. Last time I looked Mike Vick didn't play defense. Dennis Green's name should jump to the top of the list. The Vikings are no longer paying him after this season, and he might be more willing to just be the head coach. Of course Oakland, and San Diego may very well have openings, and he's probably more inclined to stay in California.
  24. White will and should win the award. Fitzgerald in a solid 2nd place.
  25. Prediction: Someone (i.e. me) will insult the French, and JMA will defend them. Fuck France. Bunch of cowards.
