    Super Bowl XLV: Steelers vs. Packers!

    Go Packers. Wow that is unreal. I have never been to a pro football game, but wow that is beyond belief. I'm not sure I could enjoy the game if one had to part with that much money for the being there. And would you go by yourself. I suppose it depends on what one normally spends of...

    The Dallas Cowboys' real problem might be Jerry Jones

    Brett Favre and the text messages

    Don Maddox, And where are we the public in the mix? I'm not a big believer in the idea of falsely bulding up a "sports hero", or ignoring what seems to be a truth. Still, the thread didn't start out with comments about the play against the Jets where he got out of the pocket, moved right...

    Brett Favre and the text messages

    Don Maddox, You don't think that sport or other celebs had some real misteps in the past (I would wager that by todays lense put in the past the behaviors would be worse 40+years ago--media and the market is no longer as allied in building up the hero worship biographyies of the past. That...

    Gridiron Help Needed

    Vinnie, I suppose that rules out the possibility of a cheerleader outfit for her as well.... My wife had an Emmit Smith jersey. She played and scored the stuff back in the early 1990's. Even wrote a program for the scoring, prior to much of that stuff coming out, I think. Alot easier now...

    Operation Typhoon pbem

    Well, I think it is well past time for me (the opponent) to give a report. Unfortunately, the laptop I was using and recorded some of the early pictures of the battle, has crashed so no pictures---rather just an opportunity to answer some questions. 1) Yes, my the Axis player is likely...
