    Who gets the 2016 Olympics?

    It could be a done deal. Otherwise why would a certain couple be traveling to Copenhagen to petition the IOC to put the Olympics in Chicago. If that's a failure that would be a huge loss of face, IMO. And, at a time when he needs all the victories he can garner.

    Week #3 NFL

    Not so fast my friend. Dallas shows up tomorrow would be a better statement. What have the Panthers done to make anyone think that Dallas would actually have to play to get the win. As inept as the Browns may be one only has to look at the Panthers to see a worse team with a veteran lineup. So...

    Happy Birthday Stargazing922

    I hardly knew you. Heck I'd be lying if I said I remembered you since your last post was in 2004. But, best wishes anyway.

    Week #2 NFL

    Why just the last game he had 2 tackles. That's $500,000 per tackle. Not too shabby... :XXROFL:

    Fall

    buck, have the locusts stripped all the plants in your area? What with them and the earthquakes and windstorms I don't know why anyone would want to move to NC. One second its a deluge of rain and then blistering heat. You can't stay dry; it's either rain or sweat. Everyone stay away from...

    Auto Club Speedway letting fans choose 2010 race start time

    I think that is a great idea. I think I'll vote to let Jeff and Jimmie start an hour ahead of the other 39 drivers. That way even if they have a problem that should give them plenty of time to fix it. :D

    TMS in court after 2006 accident

    The insurance company erred and used the wrong defense. They should have said your wife suffered from diminished mental capacity. I mean look who she married... :D

    Fall

    Ya' know I think I read somewhere that here in NC the high yesterday was just above freezing. They are expecting a long and hard winter for the next several years. I know if I knew someone that was thinking about moving here I'd caution against it unless they really loved living in a deep...

    Favorite books

    I haven't read that book but from your description I'd say no. Beowulf is a mythological tale. The main characters in Penman's book actually existed. The made up parts are the characters that would have surrounded them, maids, gardners, soldiers, etc. You know they had them just they weren't...

    Favorite books

    If you like historical fiction then I can recommend Here Be Dragons by Sharon Kay Penman. It is a trilogy of Welsh history and King John (Robin Hood's King John) of England. The main characters and events are correct. The fiction comes in that she made assumptions of conversations that would...

    NASCAR on VERSUS?

    That's pretty much how ESPN started way back when. They also showed wrasslin'. How did that work out for them, someone remind me?

    NASCAR on VERSUS?

    Maybe that's the point. They put something on that attracts viewers who worry the bull snot out of their provider until they offer Vs. What do they have now as an attraction, hockey (and no one watches hockey on TV) and WEC. And while WEC has a decent following it is still a niche market.
