This trend keeps up and I WILL do a Jim Mora like speech "My picks suck. My decisions suck. I'm giving this pick 'em away and in my mind it sucks. Michigan St sucked and I picked them. It's bullsh*t. Bullsh*t." Yeah, now I feel better.

They could always sign Corey Dillon if they were insane. Drafting running backs has not been too kind to NE in the past so I'd rather sign someone. Plus I think Cloud might have a decent future ahead of him.

Most coaches post game blow ups -Jim Mora 39 The only guy who would hold a mid week press conference and snap because one of his third string wide outs dropped a slant route pass. Mr Raven came close this year but he missed it by about 5.

I'm so burned out on Lebron James that whenever I see him on tv, I change the channel super quick and never look back. I guess I can see him as #2, but I never want to see him in 2004, 2005, or 2006. I'm much more interested in Melo Anthony than "Pauper" James.

I'm not too sure. Charlie hasn't exactly set New England on fire with his offense and I think he is better suited as a coordinator. Although he might surprise some people if given the chance. Lovie Smith has shown flashes of good but he has also shown that his defenses tend to have letdowns. Jim Mora Jr has done a very good job in San Fran with the pieces he has been given. Plus his dad is a decent coach, well before he snaps after two or three seasons. Although David Shula didn't exactly set the world on fire when he stepped into the head coaching position. Of all the coordinators, I think Romeo Crennel might be the one on the top of a lot of lists. He has been able to create a very impressive NE defense for a few years now and is able to work with almost any players he is given. I think he's like Marvin Lewis in the amount of respect he gets as a defensive coordinator but the total lack of respect he gets when teams want to hire a head coach. Granted, I don't want him to leave NE for anything.

I did as well. Till I realized it was freakin exercise and I stopped and sold the pad for a video game that allowed me to sit on my BUTT for a few hours. Contra if I remember right...or was it POW? Either way. I know PS2 at one time had GT3 but that was many many years ago.

Or they are sitting in their shower fully clothed and rocking back and forth, crying and saying "still not clean...still not clean"

Awesome news! Hope it lasts and doesn't become "WWE present the Anaheim Angels" or something stupid.

Dear god...what if they have....a FARMERS ALMANAC! I'm beginning to think the FBI may not be the smart group I thought they were.

Mine wasn't a big surprise film, but a big surprise IN film Paul Walker is STILL getting work??? HOW?!?!?!

Dammit, why couldn't NE be coming to Baltimore? I would have been able to see the Pats. Stupid schedule makers!

That honor goes to Bob Knight I think it's a damn close race. I'd call it a tie

No! Not the Love Boat! Might as well be the one that gets the stupid joke out of the way so the discussion can remain serious.

Actually yeah, and sorry I got on the defensive. I'm sure it did kind of come off like I had a problem with the Marlins but I really don't. I was very impressed with them and still am with the moves they made. I just hope they can get a stadium to stay in the upper road. I'm not a big fan of the being accused but I do understand how what I said might have came out very ignorant of the situation. No harm, no foul on my end. Hope it's all cool.

I know the situation involving the Marlins and the ownership needs a new stadium before they could even consider the payroll of Vlad. I'm not convinced the Marlins would have had the money to afford all the players they have coming up next season had they acquired Vlad. I hope they are able to continue to build and hopefully they can maintain the payroll like they did this season, but Vlad would have hurt them and he would have been dealt to cut his cost to keep the staff. As for the other part, quit trying to turn it into a personal attack cause I will not respond to such as I am not below the age of 20 anymore. Being realistic about the Marlins is not ripping them, if anything I don't even see where they would have needed Vlad with the talent they had.

Why??? I want Mora back period. I mean, who could forget THESE Jim Mora classics? From 1996 while coaching the Saints: "We couldn't do diddley-poo offensively. We couldn't make a first down. We didn't run the ball. We didn't try to run the ball. We couldn't complete a pass. We sucked. The second half we sucked. We couldn't stop the run, everytime they got the ball they went down and got points. We got our ass totally kicked in the second half. It was a horsesh*t performance in the second half. Horsesh*t. I'm totally embarassed and totally ashamed. Coaching did a horrible job, players did a horrible job, we got our ass kicked in that second half. It sucked." And this classic gem from when he was with the colts: "Ah what? Playoffs??? Don't talk about...playoffs??! Are you kidding me? Playoffs??! I'll be surprised if we win another game." Now tell me, who when watching the NFL now doesn't say, "You know, I miss Jim Mora as a head coach."

NE is just coming in too hot to make it to the Super Bowl. This week off will hurt them cause it breaks the roll and places them into a situation where everyone will be gunning for them. And winning 15-16 in a row is not possible in the NFL. Even as a Pats fan, I don't think the week off helps and I don't think they can run to the Super Bowl. Hope I'm wrong, but I doubt I am. As for the Eagles, they can't seem to stop the run and that could hurt them in the playoffs. If they get that run game fixed, I think they have a good chance. But the new stadium isn't the vet and teams aren't as intimidated by going to Philly I don't think. Still, this is a wide open race and saying one team has a leg up on the other is insane.

YEAH! FIGHT THE MAN! ....wait...I'm white..... Damn ME! DAMN MY POWER! ....wait...I have no power... Ummm....DAMN Daniel Snyder! Anyone think Spurrier will quit this week?

Al always seems to include Art Shell in his mix. And the NFL now has the restrictions in place that certain number of minority candiates must be interviewed with the risk of loss of draft picks and heavy fines. Personally, I don't see why Dennis Green DOESN'T have a job in the NFL yet. And where the hell IS Art Shell??

Just one problem with that...Vlad doesn't want to go to New York. He's not very comfortable in huge cities. You don't think that if Steinbrenner thought for a moment that he could sign Vlad, he'd have an offer on the table immediately? Then what the hell does he want??? Does he want Major League baseball to create a team in Montana for him so he doesn't have to worry about the big city? Everyone and their mom knows if he goes to Florida, they will trade him next season in a cost cutting move. And since he doesn't want "big city" life, he is left with limited to no choices. I wish baseball hadn't wasted three or four weeks on that A-Rod bs and focused on what the hell is up with the major free agents.

The studio thinks Hulk failed, they don't want to do the sequel and none of the actors involved want to be part of the franchise. The franchise tried to do something different and it was DOA because of it. I admired what the Hulk tried to do, I did. However, the story was choppy, the acting of Eric Bana made Keanu Reeves seem like he deserves an Oscar, the running on the walls by the Hulk was pathetic to watch, and the final fight scenes were too much like an episode of Power Rangers to justify the story they set up. The movie was visually stunning at times and the direction was solid, but the poor acting and story just killed the film for me. I went in with an open mind and I left feeling cold and hollow inside cause of a many factors beyond the control of the director. As for Daredevil...they aren't mutants and no normal human can jump UP three stories. I don't give a damn how "heightened" their senses are, they can't jump UP three stories like both Electra and Daredevil were doing. It was decent but the jumping made it look more like I was watching some kid play a video game and he kept forgetting which button was punch. And why Electra deserves a spin-off film is beyond me. It's like that crap that Halle Berry deserved a Bond spin-off. Just because they look good in leather doesn't mean I'm going to pay to watch them in a full length film. They really needed to develop her more in the film to justify the need for a spin-off. Her dying, coming back from the dead and leaving doesn't make me want to see more adventures of her. But basically, Hulk 2 seems dead because the studio saw it as a failure and Daredevil 2 is also pretty much in trouble because the studio saw it as a failure. It's sad because neither property had the following of X-Men/Spiderman so I don't know what they were expecting. And dammit, I wanted a Deadpool movie!

Which is exactly why they will come after the Pats. I hate it cause the Pats are my favorite team and seeing them lose coordinators would suck. However, I've come to realize that I should just trust the Pats since they seem to make everything work out in the end. But still, I'd like to see the three headed monster remain. And enjoy another year of December collapses and Jay Fiedler Dolphin fans.

All KKK members who actually believe in it and didn't join to advance their political careers should be tossed in the street and beaten with rocks. That is all. I understand some politicans in the deep South either joined or they didn't get elected and most of them turned on the KKK the minute they were elected. Those people I can deal with, although I'm not pleased they did it but anything to screw the Klan I'm all for. As for those that believe in the Klan and the message? Burn in hell. Now then, who wants cake?

Jim Fassel will go to Buffalo Dennis Green will end up in Atlanta Dan Reeves will end up in Arizona (I don't know why, I just feel that) And the Bears and Giants will take the New England offensive and defensive coordinators. Least that is how I see it playing out. As for the Raiders....I don't know, maybe a college coach like Pete Carroll
