I knew when I bought that ticket today that this thread would be up when I got here...

So how many of you old farts can read a sundial as quickly as you can your watch? Although, I must confess I have the opposite problem. 10:50 looks like halfway to eleven...

One of the few boxing commentators that always had something interesting to add. I'll miss him.

Good point. But as for comparing Tebow to Bradford, Bradford isn't a 'project quarterback' like Tebow. Sure, he needs some experience, same as any new quarterback, but he doesn't need his arm retrained the way Tebow does. Besides, Tebow is only 8-6 in the NFL; you'd think someone with god on their side could do a bit better than that...

It's not being any kind of understood by me; misunderstood might help...

No, no, no. I never called Tebow a winner. I say he could develop into one in the right circumstances. As for Denver winning the Superbowl anytime soon, that wasn't going to happen with Tebow, and it's not going to happen now. I just don't feel that Denver was 'a quarterback away' from being a reliable contender. Denver should be building for the future; Manning is not the future. Tebow may not have been their future, either, but Manning is definitely not, he's just too old. I think both you and Elway are seriously overestimating their chances...

It was snowing again last night. It has snowed more this month than it did all winter. It doesn't last through the day, but I'm starting to go batshit waiting for warm weather to get here...

I made it 40 seconds; what's the record?

Exactly. Denver is not going to win a championship with Manning; they just don't have the offense. By the time the Broncos develop an offense (if they can; this whole thing gives me doubts about their ability to accomplish anything with the current team in charge), Manning will be out of the game. As far as Tebow goes, I am NOT a Tebow fan. However, I think it's quite possible that he could develop into a decent quarterback IF he is put in the right situation. New York is NEVER the right situation for such things; Denver could have been with a little patience. If Elway dumped Tebow because he was sick of dealing with the fans, fine, but let's admit that he did it for his own comfort, not to help the team. If he felt that Tebow would never develop, then I can understand getting rid of him, but the signing Manning for a team like this makes no sense, either from the team's standpoint or Manning's. I guess what I'm saying is that I think Elway is in over his head in the front office.

I honestly do not understand Denver's reasoning in all this. Or maybe Elway is a complete idiot as I know many argue. Your team is going nowhere. You have a quarterback that has tons of raw talent but needs a lot of study and training to excel at the pro level. I thought from the start that signing Manning would be a brilliant move for the team; get a quality QB that can coach and teach your valuable prospect while filling the time on the field for a couple of years until Tebow is ready. Brilliant! Uh...except they dumped Tebow, and now have an old quarterback who, even if they build their team properly, will be retiring before the team is ready to compete, and the man they would have (presumably) ready to step in at that time is no longer there. This is pure idiocy, and Denver is now screwed for at least ten years. Now, not being a Bronco fan, this is okay with me, but still, how could you take this stupid route?

Tea, as usual. Along with a bowl of Samuel Gawith's Full Virginia Flake in my Castello billiard. Oops; wrong site!

I never got to see Dark Shadows after school as it was on at 1PM where I grew up. But it was a definite summer highlight! I remember being extremely disappointed in, I think it was '72, maybe '71 when summer rolled along and there was no Dark Shadows any more. Horrible! Heck, I had all the paperbacks, and even had the 45 of "Quentin's Theme". I guess I was a bit of a fan, but it cured me of watching soap operas forever as I eventually figured out that you could watch the last half of Friday's episode and pretty much cover the week's developments, the the first half of Monday's to resolve the weekend cliffhanger... As for the movie, no interest at all. Yes, it was silly, but making fun of my childhood isn't high on my list of enjoyable activities unless I'm doing it myself.

After reading the article, I checked out this "Bing" it speaks of. Located on the page in an area labeled 'popular now' it says "Gallager Heart Attack". I mean, it's nice to know I wasn't the only one who disliked him, but still...

Yes, how much better everything was back then. As long as you were white, at least...

I prefer the android...

I'm almost three months older than her, so at least I have an excuse...
