It's not really about that.

I'm just a worker.

I've only ever taken one sick day in 30+ years of working, and I do take vacations, but when I'm off, I don't want to drive anywhere, and my wife won't fly.

No you fuckers abandon all the other threads so if I am going to post I am going to have to post in this darn thread.

Maybe if I post in this thread it will be its death knell.

We only abandoned them because we figured it was about time for you to show up.

OK guys, since he's here too, I guess we can post elswhere.

Well, my friend wasn't big on going up to KC. I would love to come up and spend a day at Legends. I'm hoping to get up that way for the preseason games in August. Hopefully one time before then. We'll see.

Aha I knew it. nlm

Who wants cheesecake?

Nah I just had some Ho Hos

Stuttering tonight?

Damn it. I had a moment of weakness last night and bought one. Now, I'm feeling guilty.

Oh well, I've been getting a good workout this week, and looks like I will for weeks to come. I can splurge this once.

What, you're about to take off your miniskirt?














:p

Okay, I'll play with the cool kids tonight....

I saw Foxworthy earlier in the evening; he was awesome.

Female answer to "It ain't the size that matters, it's the motion of the ocean.".......????

Foxworthy's wife: "But I have to settle for a row-boat to get to England?"

ROFL

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We all already said hello to you in Kotter's thread. :shake:

She's an attention whore!!!!

So, how the hell you been....up to anything interesting (that you can talk about, without having to kill us?)

:)

Oh, DUDE.

:D

I just missed you guys - so I wanted to say hello twice... in case anyone was boycotting the others thread. :D

I'm doing pretty well. Jacked up my ankle a bit - and since I can't give it the rest that it needs... recovery has been slow. But I did start running again on it last week.

I'm doing great Red... how are you?

It's a secret.

How do, new nite crew?

We were in mid-hijack of a thread, but Kotter ruined it.

Da bastard

Eh. It wasn't much of hijack....I went back and checked it, because I almost felt bad about it for awhile. :harumph:

:p

dammit. . It's been ages since I've been involved with a hijack.

Well, who's stopping you?

That's right.

Rationalize it.

Bastard.

I came to a revelation:
My life in general is parallel with the KC Chiefs:
I'm good enough to catch your interest, but just bad enough to completely blow it!

I think you're overrating yourself.

Same here, but I'm too tired to try it again.

Possibly, but it fits reaallly well. Golf game, education, love [lack-thereof] life...

Nite, Red.

Have a good one Red.

Nite Simply.

Pussy.

Night Red!

Where the **** did you come from?

Just got home from work.

Drink faster then...................

:)

It's about time.

Sounds like you forgot to check in.

So I'm guessing everybody is drinking tonight?

The DFAC closes in 30 minutes - so I have to go get something to eat. Catch you all later!!!!!! :)

I'm working again tomorrow. :(

Barely.

Have fun.

Me too

Take care over there, it was nice to hear from you! :thumb:

Can't handle yoour liqour?

I have some Shiner Bock and had Jagermiester earlier. Taking it EZ though.

And that means you can't drink because _________.

Anyone looking to go to a preseason game? I've been asking around, but I've gotten zero responses. All I'm asking is to split parking. Contrary to popular belief, I will not rape you.

Yes I can, I'm just beat and I'm finishing my last one.

And they found that out.


You wonder why no replies now?


:)

I won't sleep much, and I think I'll be doing some data entry tomorrow (if not working in the heat lugging boxes...either way).

I'm dealing directly with people who are here from corporate. I'm on my best behavior. That doesn't include going in hungover.

Do you have tickets?

No, I thought we'd tailgate and listen to the game from the parking lot....










I believe I'm getting two tickets to each game.

Oh, well aren't you funny? :)

I don't even know what the PS schedule is, I'll have to check sometime and get back to you. I'm going to bed now.

8/16 (Thursday - 7PM) - Fins
8/23 (Thursday - 7PM) - Saints

There are only two tickets. While we can meet up with people for tailgating, someone will have to sit (errr...stand) with me during the game.

Ooh. Thurs nite will be tough.

That's what I get for never usuing vacation time. I have plenty to take off a day here and there. Weeknight games suck. Especially since it's "just preseason".

I'll pay for the parking and tickets, you provide the gas money for me.

hi

Who is he ???

Well, I have to post this somewhere, but this isn't worth its own thread.

It's an email exchange between Walter Cherepinski, author and editor-in-chief of Walter Football, and myself. Any thoughts are welcome.

My email.

Let me ask you something, as a die-hard Chiefs fan.

You've always been outspoken as to how Trent Green is an overrated QB, because he was armed in KC with an elite backfield, OL, and tight end.

Yet you've crowned Philip Rivers with a three star rating in the San Diego Chargers' season preview and you declared him a Top 10 QB, even though he himself is armed in San Diego with an elite backfield, OL, and tight end.

Just trying to decipher why Trent Green was so transparently untalented yet Philip Rivers is a Top 10 QB.

Thanks.

His response.

Thanks for visiting my site and sending me an e-mail.

You make a great argument regarding the comparisons between Philip Rivers and the Trent Green of yesteryear.

First, while I said Trent Green was armed with powerful weapons around him, it was only to state that Holmes, Johnson, Gonzalez, the offensive line, etc. enhanced his skills and made him look better than he was. Note that I never said Green was horrible; I just said he was overrated. If I stated otherwise, let me know so I can change my words. Green used to be regarded as one of the premier quarterbacks in the NFL. I never thought he should have been part of that echelon; rather, the Green of 2002, 2003, etc. probably would have been ranked between 8 and 16 in my rankings.

I also think Rivers has way more potential than Green ever had. Rivers essentially advanced as far as Green ever did in his career last year - a great record and a second-round exit after a bye despite having a great supporting cast - but keep in mind that Rivers was basically a rookie. I think he'll continue to improve. Remember, in my rankings I said, "This list predicts how well each signal caller will play this season, and this season only." Rivers should be much better in 2007 than he was in 2006 (at least I think he will be). Meanwhile, Green will continue to struggle.

Hope this answered your concerns,

Walt

I think it's a reasonable argument.

I only know of the Trent Green of the last few years. I've heard that he wasn't so great in his earlier years. Can someone tell me more?

Really low draft choice with Redskins, did not play much. Hard to say he was either good or bad since he was not playing most of the time.

How did he end up in St Louis? He was in St Louis, right?

So what's been happining around here last week while I was gone?

Yup; he started out as DV's boy there until injury in the preseason left him without a starting job.

How was Branson?

Ah. SO he had ties with Vermeil? I'm guessing that's how he wound up in KC.

Very nice this year; didn't want to come back. We just played the whole week by ear instead of trying to strictly adhere to a tightly fitted itinerary.

You would be guessing correctly luv. :D

The offensive coordinator under DV wanted him in St Louis (don't remember who that was) so they picked him up. In preseason Trent was tearing it up but Rodney Harrison hit him and blew out his knee and the rest is history for Kurt Warner.
