    Good stuff. I like this one....David Freese crosses home plate after hitting the walk-off game-winning home-run in the classic game 6 of the 2011 World Series.

    Kiss Chris Christie Goodbye As A Presidential Pick

    The congressman who represents my district is the wealthiest member of congress.....either house. The guy is worth almost $300 million. How can anyone with that kind of money relate to the average Joe? I'd trust Christie way before I'd trust this weasel...

    NFL '13 Season Thread

    I would disagree to a point. The NFL only plays a 16-game schedule so "one and done" makes sense. MLB currently has a "one and done" wildcard format that sucks dog balls in my book. Why be judged after playing 162 games in the regular season only to be eliminated in a single playoff game? It...

    Kiss Chris Christie Goodbye As A Presidential Pick

    I like Christie. Unless it is definitely proven that he directed his subordinates to take these actions, I'm letting him off the hook. The fact that he is fat is as irrelevant to the argument as the fact that Obama is black. I know some extremely talented and gifted people who are overweight...

    Robert Gates: Obama Only Showed Passion For Military On Leaks, 'Don't Ask Don't Tell'

    Just another "tell-all" book to make money for the author. Gates is a sell-out just like every politician from my perspective. A big yawn from me on this one....and I'm not an Obama fan even though I voted for him. He's a fantastic orator, maybe the best of our generation. He's also a shitty...

    Great News. Unemployment is way down!

    Yep, that's pretty much it. I know tons of people who create their own bad fortune by making bad choices. Then, they blame others for their shitty lot in life....it's never them at fault. Always some asshole boss, bitch wife or girlfriend, so-called friends....whoever. They never take...

    Kiss Chris Christie Goodbye As A Presidential Pick

    Boy ain't that the fuckin' truth?! I often have to fly to NY and absolutely despise it when the lowest fare is into EWR since that invariably means dealing with the GWB if I want to go into Westchester County. Typically, I'll be willing to pay a little more if the flight is into LGA or even...

    Any republican who is happy about this is helping to write his own party's epitaph. Christie is just about the only republican for whom I would consider (I said consider) voting for president. As a potential crossover voter, I don't think I am alone. If it's Rand Paul, Ted Cruz or Marco...

    Yeah and although it's a great honor to be selected to represent your country at the games, I really don't like all the extra wear-and-tear that they will be experiencing while a lot of their competitors are taking a timely break and getting healthier every day.

    Simple question: Are you happy with the direction of the country (U.S.)?

    ****** to choose yea or nay....gotta choose nay. Polarization seems to be getting more and more pronounced. Ineffective, stagnated government. Special interest influence is greater than ever. Which ever "side" you're on, our so-called "leaders" throw all the right (or left) buzz-words at you...

    I don't mess with making my own hash browns. Too messy, too much work and too much grease. If you're lucky enough to live in the south, a short trip to any Waffle House (gotta be one near you) for some scattered, covered and ********* will do the trick every time. You can also get 'em plain...

    No, not like cream of wheat at all except for the consistency (before adding milk). As ban-one said, if you've had polenta, grits are basically the same thing. Here's a visual that looks like it could have been taken at any breakfast joint in Texas:

    We have a lot of "build your own" burrito places here in Texas now that are really good (Bullritos, Freebirds) but for my money you can't beat the ones at Mission Burritos on W. Alabama in Houston. For fast-food fare, Whataburger's breakfast variety is pretty awesome.

    NFL: Do away with the extra point?

    Leave it in. A team always has the option to go for 2 points if they want (or, more likely, need) to. I'd be willing to look at moving the line of scrimmage to make it a bit less automatic or to entice a 2-point attempt....that sounds kind of interesting.
