• Teen Hockey Teams Brawl at End of TX State Championship

  In reply to Lion420.

  Wrong! I dont care if the kid died, nothing that goes on during an athletic event should ever end up in a courtroom. If that happens then every little thing done in a football, hockey, basketball etc game would end up in litigation. They shouldn’t even be suspended by the school. They should lose the right to play hockey anymore, and thats it.

• MSNBC Says Give Obama A Break, At Least He’s Not Churchill

  Did anyone read the DailyMail article? Mr. Bashir seems to think Mr. Obama doesn’t drink, yet that article says he’s fond of brewing his own beer. That doesnt match up.

  Is that your problem ENCINOM? You’ve been tea-bagged by your boyfriend so much that you’ve suffered mental problems? It would make sense…..

• NFL Labor Negotiations Collapse, Shutdown Expected

  You people are very misinformed. The players are NOT asking for more money. Because their deal ended the owners wanted to have a new deal in which the players last about $800 million a year total salary (this would be spread out over all the players salaries). The League also wanted to adopt a new 18 game schedule, which the players quickly took off the table for obvious health reasons. The players did however, agree to take a cut in pay as the owners requested if they could see the books and know why they were having to take a pay cut. The owners refused to show the players and their reps the books so the players then said that they would not take a pay cut unless they were shown proof of why it was needed.

  There is a lot of misinformation on here about the players, so lets clear a couple things up:
  1) The players have already agreed to set a rookie wage scale so that the rookie’s who were first coming in to the league were not making more than they deserve. In fact, the players have been for this all along, but agents continually made the price of doing business higher and higher until now the owners agree its absurd to play unproven players huge amounts of money.
  2) While it’s true that many in Pro Football make millions, the league minimum is about 350k for dress squad players, and 150k for practice squad players (still very good scratch).
  3) The average NFL career last LESS than 3 yrs, averaging out to something about 2.85 yrs. When you couple that with the fact that 80% of former NFL players need a cane to be able to walk by the time they reach 55 yrs old, and are much more succeptible to brain problems (alzheimers being the main culprit) later on in life, you can see why they would want to make as much as they can when they can.
  4) My final relates to all those on here saying that these players dont “work” for a living, While its true they dont work normal jobs, it’s also true that they work very hard year round to make sure that they are in peak physical condition so that they can take the tremendous beating they take during the season. Their physical labor per day is more than anybody’s I can promise.

  I played low-level proffessional football for 4 years. 3 in the Arena Football League and 1 in the Euro League. While many on here seem to believe that all players are demcrats, my experience has shown me that most players are fiscally conservative republicans, that have the social leaning of democrats. There are whackjobs in the profession though, and hoodlums that make everyone look bad, but the overwhelming majority are family men doing their job and thankful to have it. Just as in any profession, those doing things by the book never get atention, but those making a fool out of themselves draw negative attention to the whole bunch.

• Stumping at CPAC: Romney Knocks Obama, Supporters Pan Palin

  February 12, 2011 at 11:38am

  In reply to Restored One.

  If Sarah Palin wins the Republican Primary then Obama gets re-elected, its that simple. I love Palin, but the fact is she is too polarizing for independent voters to get on board, so they will go with Obama. You can love her all you want, but its the independent voters who will decide this election and polls have shown that she is simply too divisive to pick up their votes. Romney, on the other hand has serious economic experience and can bring jobs back to the U.S.. Just because I know that Palin can’t win an election does not mean that I dont like her, it just means we need someone who’s willing to appear to be more in the middle for us to win. She cant do that, Romney can. Get over it. Like I said at the start, if she wins the Republican Primary like most of you want then obama will win in 2012. Bet on it.

  There were many reasons for the civil war. It wasn’t just about slavery

  The war was about a great many things. To say the war was just about slavery is wrong.

• Proposed Miss. License Plate Would Honor KKK Leader

  In reply to rmblount.

  Forrest also died an american, and was a brilliant miltary tactician. He left the KKK when they became violent and never ordered that massacre according to most historians. Robert E. Lee is honored with statues in many southern cities, so what is your problem with this vanity plate if Miss wants it?
