Jan-18-26 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: For what it's worth, both home teams (Saturday) covered the spread and the total went over. For the next 2 games: HOU 40.5 (Opened 41.5) NE -3.0 ML: -175/+145 LAR -3.5 (Opened -4.5) CHI 49.5 (Opened 51.5) ML: -198/+164      Jan-16-26 WannaBe chessforum   WannaBe: 12m in. Not impressed      Jan-16-26 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: Zed's dead. Zed's dead. (if one is to go down the 'Pulp Fiction' path) "That is A tasty burger!!"      Jan-14-26 Chessgames - Odd Lie    WannaBe: This one is from Henry Cho: "I'm changing the caller ID of my wife's phone number to Potential Spam" If you have not seen or heard of Henry, he is worth some of your time on YouTube.      Jan-14-26 Dickson    WannaBe: Apparently, it was a "far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known"      Jan-12-26 Fischer vs V Pupols, 1955    WannaBe: I was thinking baseball bat, tire iron, or brass knuckles.      Jan-11-26 Tata Steel Masters (2026)    WannaBe: So, the Tata Steel blitz were held in India, and players have 6 days to fly to NED for the next (or 2026 first) major event... What is the flight path? Here are some ideas: https://www.flightroutes.com/CCU-AMS      Jan-06-26 Atterdag chessforum    WannaBe: <OCF> Not to mention when TV stations switch red (dem) and blue (rep) to what we know today... On a similar note, in Asia, if the stock shows red, it mean up, green, means down. Go fig.      Jan-04-26 OhioChessFan chessforum   WannaBe: This is for you, with some deeper insight on drone productions, Russian, and now with the cut-off of oil from certain S.

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 502 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing> Apr-25-13    Jim Bartle: "...not that they were the first team to thus reward a player from someone else's Super Bowl winner in such fashion." Boy, is that true. In the 90s a Dallas CB intercepted two passes against Pittsburgh, both thrown right to him with no receiver near. Some team signed him to a monster contract, then ended up cutting him a year or two later, he was so bad. Apr-25-13    WannaBe: Don't remind me... Apr-25-13    Jim Bartle: Was it the Raiders who signed him? Apr-25-13    WannaBe: <Jim Bartle> Yep! Apr-25-13    WannaBe: <Jim Bartle> Larry Brown. Dallas Cowboys (1991–1995) Oakland Raiders (1996–1997) Dallas Cowboys (1998) Apr-26-13    hangingenprise: why am i still a traider fan after all those horrendous picks and signings over the years? wannabe remind me..... Apr-26-13    WannaBe: <hangingenprise> I blame George W. =)) Apr-27-13    WannaBe: Oh, good the Flakers only lost by a respectable 31 points, consider 26 of the guys on the team are hurt. Apr-27-13    perfidious: <hangingenprise: why am i still a traider fan after all those horrendous picks and signings over the years?> One could easily ask me the same question. Al Davis was a genius with great vision, but he went myopic later in life, as his ego got rather the better of his judgment, a not uncommon affliction in brilliant men whose best days have passed by them. Apr-27-13    Jim Bartle: The Raiders began to believe in speed at receiver, instead of good football players. Probably because of the brilliant play of Cliff Branch. But they wasted some high draft choices. Not to mention LaMarcus Russell. Apr-27-13    hangingenprise: wannabe: the traiders are actually getting high marks for an excellent draft. err could you remind me what that means? d'oh they are making decent choices. Apr-27-13    perfidious: <Jim> Every article I have ever read on top NFL draft busts lists JaMarcus Russell and Ryan Leaf as the clear-cut top two, though overall, they are far from unanimous as to the order. Apr-27-13    Jim Bartle: I remember tackle Tony Mandarich was a huge bust, taken #2 ahead of Barry Sanders, Deion Sanders and Derrick Thomas. A few years ago Oakland drafted very high a tackle named Robert Gallery, considered the best college offensive lineman in ten years. Haven't heard much about him since. Apr-27-13    perfidious: <Jim>: Gallery had an eight-year career; hardly the stuff of Canton, but far from a total bust. Apr-27-13    hangingenprise: wannabe: the traiders are actually having a draft!! the god-father liked wilson a lot and the traiders actually make a great pick! Apr-27-13    WannaBe: Imagine that, Al Davis must be rolling over. Apr-28-13    hangingenprise: wannabe: now everyone knows how al senile davis ruined his team. the lions had a good draft, so say the experts and phony is worried. the traiders had an excellent draft- should their be reason for concern? Apr-28-13    hangingenprise: travis is happy with his bears draft. yikes their is reason for concern! Apr-28-13    WannaBe: Flakers down 18, nice... Apr-28-13    WannaBe: 25 pts... Nice. Apr-28-13    chancho: Lakers got swept under the rug. Apr-29-13    NakoSonorense: Well, it could have been worse. Apr-29-13    chessmoron: It is the worst of the worse. Getting the broom from the Spurs and Dwight Howard quite fittingly just quit and out of the Lakers organization. Apr-29-13    WannaBe: <chancho> We got swept, and beaten like a red-headed step-child! Ouch. Apr-29-13    Jim Bartle: Well, when you have to play the JV squad... Jump to page #   (enter # from 1 to 750) search thread:    < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 502 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing>
