    Wow - Ohio State

    will say this - they are shooting the lights out against a good defensive team. If they shoot like this in the tourney, nobody is touching them. 65% from the field, and 89% from 3 point range????? I've never seen a team shoot like this....

    Is this the end of Democracy as we know it?

    Let's set aside for a second the budget battle in Wisconsin - no matter what side you are currently on. I'd like to talk about the new political tactic of the minority party effectively becoming the majority party by refusing to show up and vote. 1. Will this tactic become the new standard...

    Packers Future Line - Win NFC

    Was looking at this today at my offshore book - a perfect example why NFL futures are such bad bets..... The book had the Packers as +225 to win the NFC crown (which means winning the next 2 games). So, that means they'd have to win in ATL this weekend (not easy) and then likely have to win in...

    Political Unrest

    After talking with some of my friends, both liberal and conservative, about the tone in politics today - and asking them specifically when was the last time we had such divisiveness in our country, I was told the following: The last time they (3 diff older folks) could remember such upheaval in...

    Question about Guns/Ammo from a non-gun owner....

    I'll be the first to admit that I don't own a gun - a personal choice. I will also admit that I have no problem with others owning guns for hunting or even personal protection. But I do have a question: maybe guys here on the board can shed some light on this: Why are high capacity clips...

    Playoff Matchups - Has this happened before?

    Found it very interesting, when looking at the playoff matchups, that in ALL 4 first round games, the "wrong" team is hosting the game: NFC New Orleans at Sea/Stl - NO has the better record GB at PHI - Identical records, but GB won head to head AFC Baltimore at KC - Balt has better record...

    It's called amnesty folks, and he is no longer interested in doing this via the appropriate regulation - he has another method to get it done via the backdoor: Agency weighs skirting Congress on immigration By JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS, Associated Press Writer Julie Hirschfeld Davis, Associated...

    Thoughts on the diminishing Middle Class in America

    Much has been made, in the media, and even this board, on the diminishing middle class in America, and why it has not kept up with the upper class in terms of income growth, etc. It got me to thinking, other than blaming our political system, what could be the reasons behind it? Here's is a...

    Robbing GB Packer goes badly

    NOTE: Pasted from Rotoworld - give them credit for the "True" story... Packers CB Brandon Underwood will reportedly escape sexual assault charges, but he could end up facing charges of solicitation of prostitution. The two women involved could also face prostitution charges. Underwood picked...

    Repeal of Health Care Law Coming???

    It might sound crazy to some (and I don't believe it could actually happen) but..... My guess is that the reform bill will continue to get more unpopular, as people start to see the tax increases kick in before the true "benefits" do - the guaranteed issue world of 2014 (which is the best part...

    The AFL is back!

    The Arena Football League is back, with games beginning Friday evening (game of the week will be in HD on the NFL network every Friday evening)... Any of you guys looking at betting the AFL? I've heard that a few books already have lines - but not all of them certainly.... Thoughts?

    Why will health insurance coverage cost more under reform???

    Many of us are being led to believe that it will cost less - for many of us with group coverage, it will likely stay the same. But the focus of the legislation, and Obama, is on the individual marketplace - where all the "abuses" that Obama says occur. Let me walk you through a little exercise...

    It is amazing what a dome does for a QB's stats...

    Favre is having an unbelievable year at age 41 - which is in no small part to playing in a dome in my opinion. It is just such a great environment to throw the ball - no cold, no wind, etc. Can you imagine the numbers Favre would have for his career if he played in a dome for his whole career...

    Texas QB Colt McCoy was diagnosed with a mere pinched nerve following Thursday night's BCS title game loss. He'll be recovered "within days." McCoy, injured on the Longhorns' second possession, returned to the sideline during the game with his shoulder pads on but never reentered. The...
