LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
Bills' Mario Williams: Free agency was Texans' choice



I'm pretty sure you turned down Rick's offer... but ok. Hometeam discount wasn't acceptable.


LOL poor Bills fans. What an ass.

Espn board, I think a Bills fans wrote this...

"Are you serious, Mario? First you play atrociously, then you blame it on your wrist, then you get wrist surgery without telling the Bills first, then you say you never wanted to go to the Bills in the first place? Unbelievable."

man... Vikebike was crushed by the Buctruck...

Are the tires still flat?
Did the 'ball cards fall off of the spokes?
Does the horn still honk?

Hopefully it still has the basket on the front this week to collect all of the bird poop up in Seattle. :(

Sorry bro the one machine to rule them all has already put you guys in his place!

Speaking of which I was thinking of asking for money for a fake illness in the family knowing that most people here are dumb enough to fall for it, but I think I would rather be more open about it and I promise it will go to a very good cause. I won't lie to you assholes or throw it away on drugs and booze.

Currently I am taking donations for my upgrade bionic77's transportation project. I am in dire need of faster transportation as my current "whip" cannot even achieve the necessary 0-60 acceleration to put a smile on my face. I am in dire straights and am slumming around in a 2009 Lexus IS. I promise that 100% of the proceeds will be directed entirely to the project. Other than access to the transportation I will not benefit from this at all.

Right now the base for a 2013 M3 is $68,750. That is all I am asking from you guys. Because this is kind of a charitable cause I won't even ask you guys to chip in for the options, luxury tax, insurance or gas. I will pay for all of that stuff myself!

Now be a good neighbor and open your hearts and more importantly your checkbooks to a very worthy cause.

Figures. I always thought you sounded like a drug addict.


EFFFFFFF YOUUUUUU

And EFFFFFFF YOUR MOTHERFUCKING BACKUP. Tebow doesn't deserve her!
 
You guys know you don't have to take the bye week off with the players, right?

Just wanted to make that clear, seeing as your foreign and all.

I'm pretty sure Frenchie does fake press conferences after games in his bedroom.

I missed you.


and you.

With all that drama going on in here over the last week, it definitely felt like you were missing the soothing presence of the current Nobel Peace Prize winners.

(I also totally failed at leaving GAF behind. I'm amiroxed to GAF.)
 
I missed you.
Good thing we still had Facebook.

Secondary wont get torched this week!!

Sterling Moore got torched by BB.


Oh, the German's back?

Well, hello there, kitty!

I've fully embraced the McDaniels-Mallett future, Mallett lit it up against the Rams. Dude is like a machine.

Dutch, did you go to Wembley per chance? If you did, what were your impressions?

Long story short, no.

A strange stat about SF is that they have the worst 3rd down conversion rate in the league, while ranking in the middle as far as avg yards to go.

They easily have the best OL in football and a good RB, so you'd think they'd be much better. Alex is getting lots of ink for all his improvement, so it's a pretty baffling stat
I'll thought Seahawks had worst 3rd down conversion which is why Detroits barely win this one against Seahawks.

I'm truly trying to decipher this, I really am. Maybe it's the obsessive use of drugs that have mucked me up on this one, but please explain to me what this particular post is supposed to mean?

Former Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson sees San Diego struggling this season, but he doesn’t think quarterback Philip Rivers deserves the blame.

Instead, Tomlinson said on NFL Network’s Around the League Live, it’s General Manager A.J. Smith and head coach Norv Turner who have failed to build a complete team that Rivers can lead to a title. Asked if Rivers has enough talent around him, Tomlinson answered, “I don’t believe he does,” and Tomlinson noted that the Chargers let offensive playmakers like Vincent Jackson and Darren Sproles get away.

“When you look at the people they have lost over the years and Philip Rivers’ numbers have gone down because of the guys he has lost,” Tomlinson said. “You talk about a guy like Vincent Jackson, who has picked up where he left off in San Diego now in Tampa Bay leading that team in receptions. You talk about Darren Sproles who is doing a phenomenal job in New Orleans right now. Some of the offensive line that you don’t have any more – he has lost a lot of talent around him. I said it last year, there is too much pressure on Philip Rivers. He needs guys around him to help him win games.”

Tomlinson said he believes that if the Chargers miss the playoffs, Turner and Smith will be out of work.

“We heard the rumblings out of San Diego last year when they had the poor season [and] didn’t make the playoffs for the second straight year,” Tomlinson said. “At that point, Dean Spanos really thought about making a change, but he didn’t. He said he would give them one more chance to try to right the ship. So here we are at the point where the San Diego Chargers are in danger of missing the playoffs for the third straight year. At that point, the way this organization has worked, you fired Marty [Schottenheimer] after a 14-2 year. [After] many successful years in San Diego, you fire a coach like Marty Schottenheimer. How can you justify keeping A.J. Smith and Norv Turner when you don’t go to the playoffs three straight years?”

So, it's both the front office and Rivers not being as ELITE as everyone says he is? I agree with LDT for once!


He probably wanted to throw himself into the list of names of people whom they let go. :p Coming from him, it sounds like bitter grapes, but shit don't get any truer than this:
