I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Re: College Football
from what I understand, Goodell not dropping hammer would open the door for lawsuits claiming the league tolerates & turns a blind eye to the health issues of it's players
If no one comes from the future to stop you from doing it, then how bad of a decision can it really be?

Re: College Football
I make the argument that it's not a health issue. There was nothing about the "BountyGate" that was about doing anything outside of the rules.
Where payton did fuck up was ignoring the L when they told him to stop.

Re: College Football
it's all connected
bad media, player health & avoiding litigation
it's all bad business for the league which amounts to a hit in the wallet
just saw that it is confirmed Johnathan Vilma personally put up 10 large for knocking Favre out
are you tellin me he's gonna skate if he owns up to it when first questioned? I guess we'll see
Additionally, David Stern would shyt all over any NBA organization that systematically paid players outside of the terms of their contract. Bounty or not. If they were gettin it for moppin up the wet spots he'd take away 1st round picks.

I think any team that Williams coached for needs to be worried.

Re: College Football
Roger Goodell's middle name should be change to Katrina.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

roger needs to strip those cheating bastards from the bayou of that lombardi and give it to the rightful owners who if not having to be carried off the field due to a bunch of vigilante hits would have dominated the saints that day. 2 lombardis in 3 years for the colts
