Even though I spend way too much time on them I really do not like computers. I firmly believe that a lot of the problems our society faces today can be traced back to the personal computer and world wide access to just about everything. No I am not going to go into details on what I mean.

What prompted this little rant you may ask. I just spent about 20 minutes drafting a well thought out rational, polite (at least I think it was well thought out rational and polite) response to the Phil Robertson thread. All of a sudden boom, I get some sort of stupid RTS time out error BS garbage that loses everything. This is why I have no solid objects around my computer. Replacing monitors is expensive.

You guys are great and all and I do enjoy the discussions but no offense, if I didn't know you existed I don't think my life would be any less fulfilled. Well maybe a little less but I wouldn't know so it wouldn't matter.

Its your loss though. The worlds loss actually. I know my insight would have been an eye opener for everyone. It may have even provided the impetus for both sides coming together on this issue and forging new ground toward everlasting world peace and harmony. As it is I am so pissed I can't bring myself to re type it all. So keep that in mind when we are all foraging for survival in the nuclear winter that could have been prevented simply by having a computer that didn't screw up. You can thank Bill Gates now.

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone

Thank you for the civility and effort - even if you probably were gonna come down on the wrong side of the issue hahahaha.

Probably not what you're thinking of but I think sorta see where you're going with your post.

    beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
    beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
    Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

    buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!
    buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.
    buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
    packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was
    TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL
    Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over
    beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs
    Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

    packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts
    packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,
    beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)
    beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab
    Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

    dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
    beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
    Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
    Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
    beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
    beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
    Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
