They might want to wait on letting Pennington go (or dealing him) until they are sure Favre won't pull a Plummer on them.

If it wasn't for Myspace/facebook I'd never remember birthdays of friends and such (female).

For Mother's day I got off work at 6pm, hurried to walmart, grabbed one of the remaining gift baskets on the shelf of "mother's day" gift baskets, incidentally grabbing the most expensive one. I bring it to her and as she's opening it, there's lotion, shampoo, a light up teddy bear....then I realize its baby lotion, baby shampoo, oh look baby powder. Some jerk put a BABY SHOWER GIFT BASKET with the MOTHER'S DAY GIFT BASKETS!!!!!!! Mom stops after a minute then looks me dead in the eye, "Are you trying to tell us something?" I suck at holidays.

Buh Buh Rae Dudley bled on me at an ECW House show in 1998 or 1999. (going with his ECW name spelling dang it!) Raw thread page ten: One up the previous poster!

ah communism. Most of the rejection letters I get are pretty much like madlibs, just plug in the right name and address.

NFL.com reporting Hester gets his extension: Hester, Bears agree on four-year extension Associated Press BOURBONNAIS, Ill. -- Kick returner Devin Hester has signed a new four-year contract with the Chicago Bears. Devin Hester, KR/WR Chicago Bears 2007 statistics: Receptions: 20 Yards: 299 Touchdowns: 2 The team announced the deal Sunday. Hester skipped the first two days of training camp because he wanted to renegotiate his contract, which had two years left. Hester returned to camp Friday, saying there was progress in the negotiations. He said he skipped practices to make a statement that he was serious about a new deal. Hester's previous contract was for $445,000 for the 2008 season. The terms of the new deal have not yet been announced. Hester is scheduled to speak to the media Sunday afternoon.

(merely all my humble opinions as a fan) As it stands as a GM you can offer a rookie pretty much any amount of money within your salary cap. Matt Ryan has a 6 year 72 Million dollar contract with the Atlanta Falcons for being the third overall pick in the first round (making more than the first 2 picks because he is a quarterback, a position that is more valuable apparently - that's for another thread). So if you average it out, assuming he makes all incentives, that's an average of 12 million/year and he's never taken a pro snap. Meanwhile Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are not sniffing that. But its argued that because of Ryan's contract, Brady and Manning, as veterans, can go in and demand more money in comparison because they ARE established veterans and therefore worth more to their teams than a rookie QB like MR is to the Falcons. The union is against measures to reduce the money going to rookies. Upshaw has said as much. Goodell has said that he is willing to look at it and has said recently that he thinks it is ridiculous this 20something kid coming out of college is making this much bank. Every year NFL training camps are held up by rookies wanting a higher salary than the previous years pick in the same slot. You have cases like Jamarcus Russell for the Raiders who did not sign until after the season started. They miss so much crucial learning time. At least, as high as his contract is, Ryan is in camp for the Falcons. So is Joe Flacco for the Ravens. He (Flacco) was a pick in the latter part of round 1. Meanwhile, if we look at the 2006 draft, Reggie Bush of USC was picked #2 by the Saints and signed a contract netting about 10 million a year (assuming incentives are met - which obviously they haven't). The fourth to last pick, Marques Colston of Hofstra was picked also by the Saints. Colston was making about 440,000 dollars a year on his rookie contract. If you follow professional football, Colston has been a much bigger impact player for the Saints offense than Mr. Bush has (and trust me I'm a big Saints fan and a Reggie Bush fan, I'm not attacking Reggie). Colston was recently rewarded with a contract extension of four years 15 million dollars. Devin Hester of the Chicago Bears was a 2nd round pick the same year as Colston and making a comparable football wage. Entering his third year as a pro he is already on pace to shatter every record as a returner in NFL history. He sat out 2 days of camp, but due to progress in negotiations, he is now in camp, with faith in his agent and Jerry Angelo (Bears GM). Could you agree, as a fan playing arm chair GM, that these 2 guys are a perfect example of how a rookie contract should be set up. Team pays you a fair wage and rewards you for your efforts later? Who wants to be the GM that drafts the next Ryan Leaf? Or would you rather be the GM that drafts Carson Palmer? Would you want to be the GM in 1991 saying "oh that Brett Favre guy from Southern Miss isn't worth first round money..." or "Oh that Favre guy we drafted, we don't need him, lets chunk him over to Green Bay, he won't amount to anything..." There is a lot of money that is wasted on these first rounders and it can really screw a team up for a long time. Fire away:

I'm not a Bears fan by any means, so somebody needs to clarify for me: Is Benson a top-five-draft-pick-caliber runner who can't be bothered to put in any effort now that he's raked in big-time top-five cash, or is he just a scrub who got lucky to go to a run-heavy Longhorn team led by run-heavy Vince Young that inflated his stats and made him seem worthy of a pick when he really wasn't? For me as a casual observer of him in college and into the NFL, he stunk the moment he was drafted. It was as if he couldn't be bothered the moment Paul Tagliabue announced his name at the podium. First he had a hold out. Then he got injured every season in one manner or another. Sprinkle in some character issues that he's had since college and well... I guess you could say possibly both. I mean he did get some decent production in college, supporting cast or not.

Eugene didn't have Autism, he was just slow. There is a difference. Oh I know that fully. Do you expect WWE writers to make that distinction though? Maybe I just have really low expectations lately.

I'm wondering with this WWE Autism campaign.... anyone else think they are sick enough to have Eugene come out at SNME ? I hope not... but...

I don't know...Stone Cold vs. Yokozuna did sniff 4 stars.

Who are #s 1-13?

Yeah that displeased me greatly.

Little something I threw together on youtube.

I haven't been this bummed about a celebrity passing since Rodney Dangerfield. I just don't have the words right now. Not 3 hrs ago I told a friend "You know, I'm about to just start using the following Carlin quote when people ask me if they are keeping me busy: 'no but your wife/girlfriend/mom/sister (whatever is applicable) is keeping me busy.' " I'd be remiss if I didn't mention, as big a fan as I am of George Carlin, and his stance on religion - he died on a day I was late for church. There's irony there I'm sure.

Are you sure it wasn't just one kind of crust? All the crust? Perhaps they just didn't want to serve me and recognized me as gullible? Just repeating what they said.

Whataburger ran out of meat once when I showed up. Pizza Hut ran out of crust.

When does it end? I get paid NEXT Thursday.

Had a medium prime rib @ Outback. Had a bit too much fat for my liking but over all it was still a good piece of meat.

Ice cream men in my neck of the woods just sells prepackaged Popsicles and sherbets on sticks of varying types. No ice cream in a cone He also has a collection of frito lay products, coke products, and the occasional gum and fire ball. And the annoying PA with Pop Goes The Weasel. ARGH

Maybe not overturn it but not totally bury him when he returns?

May 4th, 2008 | By NationalSquib | Category: sports Former LSU quarterback Ryan Perrilloux has hired an agent after being dismissed from the team for repeated rules violations and brushes with the law. While the exact reason for Perrilloux's dismissal has not been confirmed, his past transgressions have included investigation of counterfeiting, providing false I.D. to enter a casino, causing a distu rbance at a restaurant and numerous missed classes and workouts. Contacted by phone, agent Gus Felderman said that interest in his client has been very strong and that Perrilloux has narrowed his options down to two offers. "Ryan plans on spending this weekend with his family and hopefully come to a decision by Monday. While time is definitely an issue, he needs to weigh the pros and cons of each offer and come to a sound decision that will be the best for himself and his family. While Burger King has offered him his preference of 2nd shift so he doesn't have to get up so early, the free meal plan at McDonalds is something that you cannot overlook. He loves the cookies."
