Eagles/Patriots GDT (2 days early)

[Don Ho]

and is there any chance klecko makes the team?   he seemed to be all over the field last night.

I watched most of the first quarter and bits and pieces of the second.  Will watch the whole game on tape tonight.  What I did see of Klecko was freightening.  He looked lost and seemed to miss a lot of tackles.

DeSean and Demps' "tough guy pose."

DeSean said Andy jokingly broke it up. I laughed though. They remind of me Brett Favre as in they are two kids just going out there and havin' fun.

You should be punched to the ground and kicked relentlessly for saying any player on the Eagles reminds you of Brett Favre.

Officially a "mild" tendon sprain in Dawk's ankle.  Should be ready for the opener.

Westbrook responding to questions after the Pats game:

We saw some guys making plays. That's the biggest part of our offense, is basically having the guys on the field making plays.

It's like he's practicing to be the next Madden.

This quote was actually interesting, when he was speaking about DJackson

I'm tired of seeing eight men in a box. I want to see an opportunity where the defense has to respect our receivers; they have to play them all, which we had before.

[mpmcgraw]

id love to see eight men in a box

[Diomedes]

ask and ye shall recieve

GIS for eight men in a box



and this was the second hit...I prefer this one, though I don't know what it means.  Jesus with a shotgun is hep.

[Geowhizzer]

That second one belongs in the Obama/McCain thread.

or as a church mural somewhere in Texas or Kansas or some other god awful place like those

It's an illustration from a 9/11 truther book. Based on the sample chapter accompanying the illustration, the book sucks pretty hard.

[Diomedes]

Sample prose:

We shook hands. He walked back and I pulled out, watching inside the store as Jesus smiled and joked and helped the next customer to put crap into a bag to take home.

I smiled because Jesus Iowa was going to be young for a while yet. He was perhaps not going to be robbed of a future by bandits. Not today.

I moved slowly onto the highway, passed the "Support Our Troops" sign on the pharmacy, turned left in front of a Schwann's truck and piddled along home, slowly, thinking about Jesus Iowa and I guess lots of stuff.

My favorite part is this:

"I stayed with them, in the mountains," said Jesus. "In the jungle. Mexicans. My people. Intellectual revolutionaries, taking up arms against injustice, making a difference.

"On the edge. Pushing the envelope. Writing for international publications, invited to speak in universities around the world, in between living in a tent, sleeping on hard-packed ground, being eaten alive by mosquitoes the size of a child's hand, eating beans and beans and more beans, killing and willing to be killed in order that poor people might live a better life.

Bet he gets a lot of hippie chicks though.

[General_Failure]

Jesus was all about the killin'.
