  1. What context is it in? I don't think anyone is blowing this up. It's offseason chatter.

    Breakout Wr 2013

    Josh Gordon Alshon Jefferey Michael Floyd Darkhorse: Blackmon - I think this dude has bust all over him and a shady QB throwing to him, but after his suspension I see him coming on strong.

    How good (or bad) is Joe Flacco

    He's a winner, that's pretty much all I can say about him. His playoff run last year was amazing.

    Sig request thread

    I'm not doing much with PS anymore either. Really sad you're not. You were quiet good. I enjoyed learning text with you .

    Would you get on this ride?

    The spinning would bother me, not the height. I hate spinny rides. Must be my age. I'm a coaster guy and Ohio is still the King of Coasters.

    Top 10 CB's list

    His age has nothing to do with his level of play. He's playing like a top 10 CB right now.

    Top 10 CB's list

    If Joe Haden and Ike Taylor are not on your top 10 list, then you fail. Taylor is one of the most underrated CBs in the NFL. Glad most of you recognized that.

    Who wins the AFC North in 2013?

    I'm never surprised by the AFCN and certainly not surprised if/when the Steelers win it. The only time I'll be surprised is if the Browns ever win it. We've got two elite coordinators and I think our time is coming, we just need a franchise QB. Are you worried about Ben's overall health? Dude has taken a beating in the NFL, at what point does he need to stop extending plays (His biggest strength) to protect himself? Those graphics they show of his injuries makes me hurt.

    Ravens fan, yet says Eagles is favorite team...does not compute.

    What's your occupation?

    As a BA do you also do any QA? Our BA's wear duel hats. I'm a huge fan of BAs.

    Expectations for Carson Palmer?

    0 expectations.

    Who are the 5 most important players to your team?

    Joe Thomas Joe Haden Trent Richardson Josh Gordon DQ52 I would have thrown Alex Mack in there, he has such a key role and is underrated due to the overrated Maurkice Pouncey in our division.

    My new bike

    I'll get into the touring bikes later on in life, the wife and I want to go cross country together when we're a little older and have an empty nest. The Street Bob is a great cruiser and with the 6speed, twin cam, 1584cc, v twin engine, it's not very small.

    My new bike

    2013 Dyna Street Bob - Stage 1 with Python pipes. I'll see how the neighbors react and then might move to Vans & Heins pipes.

    What's your occupation?

    My degree is in CIS and now I'm back in school for my MBA at Cleveland State University. They have an accelerated course, but I opted out of that. I just don't have the time.

    NBA Lottery tonight

    They settled. That's the point of settling. The government agreed to it, who's a fault? Companies that large are CONSTANTLY involved in some sort of litigation and settlements. Whether they're at fault, a few employees scam or what have you. Not at all, but I was involved from a legal discovery standpoint. I didn't always have all the case information, but I was involved. I don't think any F500 or any large company is a good moral compass. I'm saying now a days, there are far more regulations that these companies have to follow. They are constantly audited. I do not think they advise companies on how to scam the government on taxes is all.

    San Francisco awarded Super Bowl L; Houston gets LI

    Really glad to see SF get it. Would be fun as hell to spend Super Bowl weekend in the Bay area and have it in their new state of the art facility. As far as I know it's going to be one of the most technically advanced stadiums in the NFL on completion.

    What's your occupation?

    I'm an IT Director and Information Security Engineer. Basically I manage a department and I keep my technical skills intact while doing security assessments and penetration tests along with the various mitigation.

    My new bike

    Thanks! I got it down to $13,600. TTD. The bags are for keeping gear in and when I go grocery shopping or picking stuff up around town.

    Has there been a team like that in recent years since the lotto? I honestly don't know.

    E&Y has so many controls in play, I used to work for them. I don't know how much you know about the company or the story in general, but E&Y are far from crooks. I've not only worked for them, they also do independent audits for my current company - a fortune 500 company and I can assure you they're not advising us on how to evade taxes. You can word the payment to the government anyway you want, but in reality they admitted to wrongful conduct by some of its partners and employees from 1999 to 2004 (A fucking Decade ago) mostly pre Sarbanes–Oxley. It was something like 4 employees. I think you'll find a number of employees in any large company attempting to commit fraud. You think a few employees should cause a full company to undergo criminal chargers or label said company corrupt? Actions of a few, man. What E&Y did is not an uncommon practice for companies that had employees promoting over the edge-tax-shelters 10-20 years ago. There are still companies under litigation due to the to tax shelter fiasco of the 90's and 2000s. Here is Apple's CEO talking about the use of tax shelters: http://www.montrealgazette.com/business/Apple+defends+taxshelter/8416821/story.html

    NBA Lottery tonight

    I'm glad the Cavs got the first overall, but this year there is no consensus #1 pick. Many Cavs fans want Noel Nerlens. Dude is 6'11" at 203lbs with a knee injury. While the knee isnt a huge deal, with Clevelands luck, it will be. Also many are excited that with our core of talented players, LeBron might opt out to come back to a team with a solid base to win for many years to come. In Miami, they're largely older guys (Wade has a lot of miles on him). We'll see. Fuck everyone talking Conspiracy. There are teams with more money, in larger markets that lost superstars.
