Time for a review of the rules...

The most important factor in a critical NFL game is not decided by athletic ability, offensive strategy or coaching finess. It is decided by a flip of a coin.

Why bother with wasting the fan and the players time? Why not just roll the dice and see who gets a higher number; or draw straws or cards? A game can be fought hard between two evenly matched teams with great defense and great offense and roll to a tie just to have the most critical "play" of the game turn into a flip of a coin.

Why waste 4 quarters of my life and the life of the players if you are going to have the game be decided by factors beyond human control. Just set the two teams up in Madden and simulate the game and tell us the score.... The current NFL overtime rule makes regulation play, skill and coaching nothing but attempt to get more plays for a highlight reel.

Either change the overtime rule or admit that american football is as retarded a sport as the "other" world's football. The best team lost, but they weren't out played... They were out flipped.

Lets learn from this example

A news story from the associated press talks about a 16 year old girl who made a huge impact on her city by championing a large, and often overlooked, need. This is what the holiday season SHOULD be about... but instead we make it all about gifts for ME.

Anyways, if you want to be encouraged that there are people in the world better than me (and you!) and get helpful hints on how to make a difference that matters, you can check out the article here

To: All Manu G's foolish minions

The media, the fan base and even some of the competition all swore that Manu was the 2nd best spur. I knew they were all idiots. Tony Parker was clearly the 2nd most important Spur... Anyone who disagreed is now known to be an idiot.

Stats for 2005-2006 NBA Season

Tony Parker: 22.1PPG (on 57.5% shooting) 6.1APG, 1.13SPG, 3.4 RBG

Vs

Manu Ginobili: 14.8 PPG (on 42.7% shooting) 3.1 APG, 1.5SPG, 4.4RPG

PLAN AHEAD

Why do people call Domino's Pizza at 5:30pm on a friday night without having any idea what the members of their party want? It drives me crazy that I have to sit and listen to some moron argue with their spouse about what kind of pizza do get while 6 other lines ring off the hook. Decide what you want BEFORE you call for pizza... or maybe you should consider another dinner choice.

I hate my job.

Dear France

I guess we see how well your strategy against terrorism works.

thanks again for showing the world how NOT to do things.

Ancient 'Godzilla'-like sea creature discovered

Robert Britt of MSN.COM reports on a fossil found in South America that resembles a mix between a crocodile and t rex. I am usually not that interested in fossil records, but this thing looks like it was one nasty beast. Check out the article here:

Yahoo News posted a story about Qatar opening the doors to the first Christian church in 1400 years! It will be interesting to see the response of the primarily Islamic population.

Chicken Little - 3D

I went to see Chicken Little (the 3D version) last night with my girlfriend. This movie exemplified everything that is wrong with the Disney animation department.

Disney needs to seriously consider doing a 100% overhaul of their entire department. This movie was absolutely horrid! It was as if the writers all sat in a room and wrote a list of uninspired jokes, then worked together to get a half hazard script around those jokes. The story was boring, broken and did not flow at all. The character development was terrible, at its best. ugh. This movie stunk.

What happened to the unwritten rule that all animated films were good? What happened to the Toy Story's, the Lion Kings? It is starting to look like animated films bring in too much money to be bothered with spending resources on creating a good story and a film that flows well.
