I wonder if that sum is down to quantity or quality.
Bills sounds like bullshit.

I would not pay that either (assuming they were trying to rip him off).

Also this guy is retarded. I recommend GAFers to start asking him for money to start a fail safe business idea he can rely on into his retirement. He is obviously an idiot so just send the money to me for my charity instead.

Man Manhattan is just plain weird right now. Walking sixty blocks to work and seeing people unplug christmas lights from trees to charge their cell phones.

Cowboys beating the Falcons would be horrible. For the next week they'll be spewing how they beat the undefeated team and how they can beat everyone. A sickening thought.

Let's hope for a tie.
The Cowboys will be in it until the last three minutes of the fourth quarter until:

A) Tony fucks it up by throwing a dagger to the heart pick 6.
B) Jason Garrett and/or Romo completely fuck up the clock/game management letting the game slip away.
C) Dez Bryant fucks up somehow leading to a pick, drop or something else that costs them the game.
D) Jason Garrett ices his own kicker to lose.
E) All of the Above.

(it's really just amazing to type out the littany of amazingly stupid shit the Cowboys have done to lose games over the past few years)

You're only what your record says you are!

See this?

What's the point in a scale that's so absolute and binary? Relative to the rest of the NFL (which should be the measure, if you ask me) the '11 Packers were an excellent football team.

/Dolphins fan

Either you win or you lose, what's the fucking point in discussing how you want to rank the losers? If you didn't win the super bowl you were shit and are irrelevant.

If a good team loses to a better team, both teams are still good, one was just better.
Doesn't necessarily make the losing team shit.

If you want to talk about actually shit teams, there is no shortage of them.

Well if winning the Super Bowl is the only metric by which we can determine who is good and who is shit, isn't it a bit premature to call the 2012 Falcons garbage?

Yes I mad.

Sure, but you have to go by more than record because as has been established, the team with the best record isn't necessarily the best team.
 
I just think it's a little silly to support a line of thinking that, for example, says a team that went 0-16 one year and 12-4 the next didn't improve at all unless they won the SB. Still on rung 2/2 on the eznark ladder!

Surely there is a little more nuance to sports than that?

Last year hurt but nowhere near as bad as 18-1.
Would this be a bad time to bring up the '72 Dolphins?

Definitely, if you are a loser who has no intention of winning. Accepting moral victories and "gradual improvements" is akin to getting a participation ribbon in co-ed no-contact dodgeball. The teams who want to win championships will tell you to fuck off with your ribbons, while the Dolphins and Browns will thank you for recognizing their growth. Then go right back into the gutter the next year.

Dolphins havent done anything since

How in the world are you a Brewers fan?

Is it really that hard of a concept to believe that a team could improve over the course of a few years until they are in a position to win a SB? Or is there just some magic switch that flips so they go from 0-16 to SB champion overnight?

Why even listen? They all sound the same.

They are great. We suck. We will have to play a lot better than last week to have a chance. Their players (X,Y,Z) are the greatest of all time and we are going to have to stop them to have a chance. God gave us this hurricane because of the how badly the Giants are playing and the homos. Etc.

If you heard one of his press conferences then you have heard them all.

If you want to be entertained by a press conference or interview then listen to Tomlin. He is sexy to look at to boot!
 
Have you ever read the MLB thread? I'm certainly not pissing lillies after failed seasons.
No, I don't have trouble sleeping so there's no need.

I'm just wondering what your blueprint for a successful Brewers team would be. How can they go from where they are right now to WS champs without any seasons spent improving in between?

By not pitching fucking Marcum twice in the NLCS when he has been fucking hot horseshit the entire fall and instead using Gallardo on three days rest? Or maybe by fucking sitting that cunty asslicking piece of motherfucking dog shit John Axford down when he can't locate a motherfucking curveball? Maybe by publicly executing Ron Roenicke on the pitchers mound in the seventh inning then sticking his head on a pike leading out of the bullpen under a sign that says "YOU'RE FUCKING NEXT KROD YOU MOTHERFUCKERRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

I'm not a big fan of Omar Epps movies. The Wood wasn't too bad though!

I guess I should start browsing the MLB threads.
