  1. Nothing quite this exotic but a couple of stories.One they talk about this day in Pagosa Springs several years after it happened was the day a Bear wandered into the local drug store in downtown Pagosa. If there was any lingering doubt that a Bear could clear out a store in a very short period of time that was put to rest that day. One winter morning I was out walking just before dawn when I noticed a group of brown and tan(white?) shapes plowing through some deep snow.This also occured in the downtown area of Pagosa.It turned out to be a herd of Elk.The Elk and I were just a short distance from each other and for a few minutes we held our ground eyeballing each other before the Elk moved off toward the river. It was an interesting encounter.
  2. That dog better hope that the snake was'nt hungry.
  3. Is this set easily available?
  4. I doubt that he could handle the altitude where I'm at and I'm not sure I could handle seeing him like that.I saw Albert Collins a few months before he passed away from cancer.I don't if you ever saw Albert but when he was healthy he was a fairly solid guy but after the cancer he had pretty much wasted away.All things considered he played a fairly good set and I thought what he did under the circumstances was courageous but it still hurt too see it. I don't know if you saw BB King on the A&E special but he sat down during his set or at least during the portions that I saw and I took that as a disturbing sign.I guess it depends on your point of view and IMO there is no right or wrong way to approach it.If you want to see Jimmy,BB or whoever play one last time that's understandable and if you don't that's understandable too.As long as it's a parting well made and all your memories are good I guess that's all that really matters in the end.
  5. Glad it worked for you Brad.I used Paypal to buy a shirt once and I went through hell and back in order to complete the purchase and after that I haven't used it since. I concluded that Paypal wasn't my pal.
  6. Mny don't you think that Marino had some good receivers to work with?
  7. Ok, I knew it was Taylor that caught the TD in the Super Bowl not Rice. I don't remember any regular season game between them well enough to discuss it. It was the season before (87-88) and the reason Montana got another chance was because Sam Wyche, leading by six, went for it on fourth down at his 30-yard line instead of punting with six seconds left ... Wyche called a running play, the run was stuffed for a loss of five, and the Niners had two seconds. Montana hit Rice and the extra point made the score Niners 27, Bengals 26. You are absolutely right.I knew Wyche made some kind of Bonehead decision that the 49ers were able to take advantage of but I could've sworn it was a penalty but your recollection dusted the cobwebs off of that one.Thanks.
  8. He did, Chris. Take a look You're right.My bad.
  9. Don't you mean stuck around long enough to allow Terrel Davis to win him 2 Super Bowls. They won the Super Bowls in spite of Elway. Who had one of his usual horrible Super Bow performances in the first win. Without Davis, Elway is 0-5 in Super Bowls. He played like crap in 4 of the 5 Super Bowls he played in. There is a very good reason Bradshaw called him a loser after the 49ers dismantled him. You really are a Raider fan.I am too but it's not anything that you proclaim loudly in Colorado. I prefer the Raiders over the Broncos and I always enjoy it when the Raiders clean their clock.That being said we'll just have to disagree about Elway.He did have good support but the team also responded to his leadership.They did play a lot of exciting games and pulled out a lot of close ones and I did'nt always enjoy seeing that but I'll give the man his due.I know this is going to piss you off but like it or not Elway is going into the hall of fame. As a fan of Arizona State though I'm pleased to say that Elway was 0-4 in his career against the Sun Devils.
  10. The Bengals were a tough adversary for Joe and the niners in those two super bowls unlike the time when they diassembled Elway and the Broncos. I have to give John Elway his props though he hung in there long enough to have a great career and win two super bowl rings.BTW Elway should've made this poll.
  11. FYI the Bengals-49er's game I was referring to was one that took place during the regular season.
  12. It is the Bucks Jordan is supposed to be buying, which brings up another strange pick. Why anyone would draft a short PG that can't shoot to save his or his mother's life is beyond me to figure out. They traded Cassell to make room for him and it most likely means that Gary Payton is coming back as well. Though I would have loved to see Payton on the Lakers. I know I was just being a smart ass.Seriously though I think Jordan may be in over his head on this one.
  13. Maybe Michael Jordan is making the T Wolves personnel decisions too.
  14. Stop it you're hurting me!!!
  15. Thanks for the heads up.Screw all the stupid critics.Stitt rules!!!
  16. I voted for Joe Montana.From Notre Dame on any team that Joe qb'd even if they were way behind in a game were never out of it.That one game where Cinncinati committed a penalty and Joe used the opportunity to throw a game winning td to Jerry Rice said it all.Joe is my hero.
  17. Send me the gift certificate.I'll help you decide.
  18. The whole history of Charlie's Angels is cheesecake made with American cheese.
  19. It looks like the Phoenix Suns did fairly well in the draft.Probably no rookie of the year but a couple of solid prospects to add to the depth.
  20. I'm just curious as to why they haven't been able to give a diagnosis beyond having Parkinson's symptoms or is that even relevant?
  21. And the symptoms are Parkinson's or is there some thought that something else could be at play here?
  22. Thanks for the clarification.Do you know what's wrong with him?
  23. I think the majority of his problems are caused by Parkinsons.
  24. I asked.I received.
