My Giants friends at work and I both agree that Dallas’ secondary is legit. Dallas might be better than we all thought.
September 6th, 2012 at 8:52 AM
defensively at least. I think their offense has a chance to be explosive, but i’m not sure about consistency when you consider the giants defense doesn’t lock it down until they are on the verge of elimination.
September 6th, 2012 at 8:53 AM
The Patriots made adjustments after 2009.
If Aaron Hernandez doesnt smoke all that weed things are much different. Crazy.

So is this what Detective JMac was doing when he wrote that pout piece earlier this week? UNC has a long way to go, and there very well may be some additional skeletons in their closet, but I will patiently wait and accept punishment for whatever they find. It really is that simple. Oh, and keep investigating all of those potentially-ineligible players at other schools (and NCAA while your at it, why not look into PayPal Cal at UK some more?).
September 6th, 2012 at 8:55 AM
My Giants friends at work and I both agree that Dallas’ secondary is legit. Dallas might be better than we all thought.
If Murray runs like that all year, they will score a ton of points. Their defensive will only have to be decent. But yea they looked good last night.
September 6th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
yeah, it should be interesting if they keep hernandez as a tight end this season now that they have a third TE that can at least get on the field at the same time as gronk and hernandez. that’s a versatile offense.
now if only they had a running game…
September 6th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
The Giants secondary looked like garbage last night. Prince needs to play hurt or else teams are gonna throw all over them.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
It’s all ball bearings nowadays. Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads. And I’m gonna need ’bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Giants are great when they can play a team that throws the ball 90% of the time, but if last night’s game is any indication, it could be a long season for them against teams with a running game.
/prognosticated
//2096 yards for Murray this season
///5,000 yards and 48 TD’s for Romo

September 6th, 2012 at 9:03 AM
Probably will, and keep that 3rd TE on the line to block
/scared of our O-Line
September 6th, 2012 at 9:04 AM
Ogletree fucked me over last night though. He and Miles can score TD, but their best WR can’t? And then Demarco fucked me over by not just running straight on that run he broke. Dez was out there blocking for him, had he just ran straight he would’ve gotten 6.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:05 AM
that’s what i’m thinking, can do a lot of damage with lloyd, welker, hernandez and gronk in routes while you have effectively 6 lineman to neutralize the 4 man rush.
/7 months too late
September 6th, 2012 at 9:06 AM
Wow, you and I had the same dilemma last night. I have Dez Bryant and Murray on my team. I screamed bloody murder when he inexplicably cut inside on that long run.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:06 AM
And then Demarco fucked me over by not just running straight on that run he broke. Dez was out there blocking for him, had he just ran straight he would’ve gotten 6.
I have no idea what he was thinking cutting back there. He could have walked into the endzone if he followed Dez.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:06 AM
Andy Reid will still throw the ball 70% against the Giants even after last night.
/Doug Martin, DeAngelo/Steward/Killer Cam and Shady the next three weeks for the Giants
September 6th, 2012 at 9:08 AM
he may even call time outs for the giants to catch their breath when he does run the ball.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
my office is full of ignorant cowboys fans. today should be a fucking delight.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:10 AM
He must’ve thought someone behind him was closer than he actually was, it’s the only explanation. Or he’s fucking terrible at geometry.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
I think Demarco was gassed on that long run and shut it down. Can’t blame him. Don’t want that stud pulling a hammy trying to score.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:12 AM

He did the same thing against STL last year on a really long run. Realized he was gassed and sought contact immediately.
September 6th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
Victor Cruz dropped 3 passes and they Cowboys got away with a pretty blatant hold in the end zone on that 3rd down play after Boley’s pick.

i think he did more than enough last year to prove last night was not the norm for him.
last night was the total opposite of what i thought would happen- giants d line was held in check by spare cowboy o line, demarco had a huge game, giants o didnt do crap, and ogletree finally did something.

My opponent’s starting QB is Tony Romo. I had Demarco Murray, Dez Bryant, Jason Witten and their kicker on my team. Happy with the points Murray and Bryant got me. Should have started Tony Gonzalez instead of Witten, though. Should’ve known he was going to be limited coming back from an injury. Oh well.

When you hit it into the church pews, take your medicine and chip out laterally. Short game and then go practice putting on a freshly sealed parking lot.
I’ve read that Oakmont’s greens are a mix of some old strains of grass and that odd combination really couldn’t be duplicated and that allows them to be made so fast yet not burn out.
Good luck.

So how does Ogletree follow up this performance? I think the kid showed a lot of game last night, and although he is “3rd” on the chart, he seems to have some pretty good chemistry with Romo. He looked his way a lot, on 3rd downs, and in the red zone. Maybe it was a product of taking what the defense was giving Romo, but I didn’t really notice Austin or Bryant getting shut down every play.

So drinking whiskey at bars is not worth it because they pour you one ounce or less (unless you are at a dive bar and over-tip each drink) you finish your barely there whiskey and then have to order another. Though I dislike shots because I would rather just drink liquor straight normally , a shot and the largest amount of beer possible is always preferable. Ideally an Irish Car bomb followed by a Guinness or a whiskey shot with a huge fucking mason jar of craft beer (Conductors Ale).

There’s a bar here that will not make doubles because of how strong they make their liquor drinks. It’s heaven.

I thought about our exchange yesterday last night when my girlfriend brought up how she thinks people need to be calling each other “chief” more often. I couldn’t agree more.

can’t remember who told me I would come to appreciate the changes from Assassins Creed 1 to Assassins Creed 2, but hot damn were they right. MUCH better.
That would be THIS GUY. Brotherhood is even more fun. I felt like AC3 was kinda scattershot in terms of gameplay, but the core of the story remains badass.

Have to be careful. Also, there is nothing worse than ordering one and the crappy place you’re at totally botches it. Mulligans on 2nd in downtown used to have the best before they closed. Second best was a bar close to Wrigley this summer.

Philly – i am trying not to get too far ahead of myself, but I stumbled on the wikia for the AC games and good lord there is a lot of background info. I have to resist the urge to go read it all, lest I spoil the game or a major storyline. I found some pages of the codex, but I am not sure if I have to wait to bring them back to Leonardo or if I can only access him whenever he comes back up in the main story line.
September 6th, 2012 at 10:05 AM
Not sure if it has been linked yet, but football maps are back!

I thought about our exchange yesterday last night when my girlfriend brought up how she thinks people need to be calling each other “chief” more often. I couldn’t agree more.
August 2007. I’m at the Agora. Tiny rock hall, peaked in the 70′s Cleveland rock heydey, being renovated but a shithole at this time. We were seeing Silversun Pickups right as Lazy Eye was breaking, I had been tipped to Carnavas earlier. We made good time getting down there and were way too early. We start crushing the bar so we’re pretty jazzed up after a while. There were actual seats at the bar in the bar area, so I order 2 beers and 2 shots and I graze this 40ish guy with a trucker hat as I’m passing a 20 to the waitress, I go “Sorry Chief”. I take a few steps back while the bartdner lady gets our stuff. I reach over to get the drinks and this rummy is like “WHAT YOU CALL ME” like 2 minutes after I accidentally bumped him. I tell him relax and as I reach over to get my drinks he jumps on mny back. I kind of start swaying to get this maniac off me and my friend comes over and just lays a linebacker hit on the guy . He’s on the floor disoriented. He looked like that crazy greasy Russian guy that’s in all the Micheal Bay movies. So we just grabbed our drinks and moved over to the stage area. Most imporantly none of the drinks spilled. So I’ve quit calling people Chief.
September 6th, 2012 at 10:14 AM
I always thought the dude who I got mine from just made the names up most of the time. apparently that isn’t true since I’ve seen 3 or 4 of them listed here. that’s good to know.

Why did North Carolina get away with fraud while Connecticut was punished for honesty?
Suprised this isn’t getting more headlines here in CT. Jay Bilas on twitter stated that “NCAA will say every case is different. So is every NCAA excuse.” This is absolutely crap. So UCONN can’t go to the tournaments because of failing to have an appropriate graduation rate yet UNC can cheat its way in and have nothing happen. I hope O’Bannon destroys them with his lawsuit.
