I also read in the newspaper he rear ended someone with his 140,000 Mercedes and did not have insurance, it ran out 3 days earlier.

Also something that could happen to anyone...
Not all insurances automatically renew, who cares, people are just looking for things now.
It says he missed a payment, not that it ran out. He is an irresponsible punk who does not deserve all the good things he has.Quote:

Its Official!
Congrats Detroit fans :D
Panthers win NFC south..yay
Guess they will play Cowboys or Eagles?
Eagles vs Cowboys will decide last NFC playoff spot.
I'm just loving the Dallas-Philly game. :D
The Cowboys look atrociously bad. Does it get any better than this?
Wow. I am STUNNED!Quote:

I can't wait for the TO meltdown in the offseason and hearing whom he's casting the blame on. I fully expect him to be a complete team cancer in this adversity.
Im loving this game. Nothing better than watching the Cowboys get spanked after watching the Packers finally win again. The Jets/Fins games is pretty good too, hoping the Jets will pull out a last minute win for Favre.Quote:

Hes one of those players I dont wish on anyone, simply because he puts himself and not his team first. Im also hoping that everyone realizes now that Romo is not an elite QB and doesnt belong with names like the Mannings and Brady. Glad the sports writers are finally climbing off his soapbox.
Being a Ravens fan living in Dallas right now is AWESOME.
As for the Green Bay-NY Jets-Favre thing: Neither team is making the playoffs, but at least one of them knows who their QB will be next year.
The fact that is for the highest of all stakes, a playoff spot, makes it all the more incredible. If they already had something locked up, or had no chance at the post season, it might lessen it somewhat.Quote:

I kind of like Wade Phillips too...
:( Poor Cowboys
Well, nothing left to do but go for my state team.
Goooo Cardinals.
I have to say as a Miami fan that I am stunned.
My expectations for this season were modest... 5-6 wins would have made me happy. And with trading one of their best players (Jason Taylor) I had even a harder time seeing any massive improvement.
But having seen what Parcells had done with the Patriots, Jets, and Dallas... maybe I should have known better.
This season to me has been unfathomable. And if there is any hope for Detriot fans next season, it should be Miami's turnaround.
I have been so used to Miami teasing me just to leave me crushed in the end that I was fully expecting a loss against the Jets today. I like that they'll have at least one home game... but I *KNOW* in my heart that I cannot expect too much from them. I think that they'll win their home game against Baltimore... but I think that's as far as they go. I refuse to allow myself to be deluded into thinking that they are better than they are.
Pennington has been a STUD pickup for them! What I thought initially to be a nice upgrade has been a godsend. He has been brilliant and should have made the Pro Bowl ahead of Favre. Rubber band arm be damned!
In stark contrast to last year, Miami's playcalling has been brilliant... keeping opponents off balance. And I still have no idea why the stupid "Wildcat" is so effective. It seems brainless to me to have your QB lined up wide. It almost looked like the Jets weren't even covering him. What I think though about it is irrelevant... it appears to be working and "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" as they say and I see other teams using it as well. It would have been interesting to see an Atlanta team with a guy like Michael Vick running it.
And what has happened to the Miami of old? It used to be that the 'Phins were unbeatable in September with that heat and humidity and that they couldn't win a game in December to save their lives. Now the polar opposite seems to be true.
I am shocked and happy. But I refuse to get too excited about their possiblities in the post season. This season is a success no matter what happens from here.
I am a very happy man. In fact, all my friends are happy. Both Bay Area teams won. The Raiders went back to Tampa, the site of the terrible and humiliating Superbowl loss, and kept Tampa out of the playoffs. It doesn't get much better then that. Bush was a monster. And Higgins looks like a WR. So the Raiders are winners, I am happy, and on the 1st, they will be undefeated and ready to restock. A high draft pick for a team that has glaring needs, a wierd owner, the not so soon to be be named new coach, a lack of General Mangaer, and a roster that needs a remake, probable loss of Lecter, but I am still full of unrealistic hope that we could be the next Miami. Its going to be a good year. Of course I think that every year. Being a Raider fan is a character building.
Stupid Broncos. It was pretty much the impossible that it would come down to this and then they blow it completely. But you know what they didn't deserve to be in the playoffs with all the mistakes they make in EVERY single game. I think they are at -21 or so on turnover ratio and finishing either 28th or 29th in total Defense. Terrible.
