The Redskins will keep Cousins around because he is cheap and familiar with the system. You don't want a turn-style of back up QB's going through your organization, especially with RG3's play-style. Just because he only missed 1 game doesn't mean he is not an injury risk. Anyone who has...

What, you aren't excited at the prospects of Hector Noesi filling a rotation spot next season? Seriously though, what don't you like about it? Seems like a side-grade to me but I think Vargas was going to take a hit in his numbers because of the fences coming in so if you wanted to trade...

I am a big fan ofNatives. I generally need a pair of sunglasses that not only look decent, but are also usable in athletics. Natives offer that plus interchangeable lenses that are great for the pacfic northwest where I never know if it'll be clowdy or sunny when I go mountain biking or...

I haven't every really snuck in, but I do smuggle in large amounts of beer/alcohol every time I go now, which is like maybe once every two years. I hate movie theaters. Between teens on their phones and parents whose night out isn't going to get spoiled just because they couldn't find a baby...

Mariners Swap Jason Vargas for Kendrys Morales There you go Duppin.

If I had to make a guess I would say the 'Hawks just hold onto Flynn. They are paying Russell Wilson so little thanks to slotted salaries that they can afford to keep Flynn another year. Although I am sure they will listen to trade offers. Also Cousins isn't going anywhere, also getting...

So if I stick it up my wife's butt, does that make her a lesbian?

You mean like in Chicago when he basically executed 2 game winning drives? Once when leaving only 30 seconds on the clock then again in OT after the defense let the one guy they had to stop make a play?

Seattle definitely held the offense back and leaned heavily on their run game and defense to start the year. However, over their last 5 wins, only one of them would you say that the defense won them the game. Two of them (Buffalo and Chicago) were 100% on Russell Wilson's shoulders and you can...

You are correct. But I will say that just using a good old fashion eyeball test you get the sense that Kaep is throwing a much more accurate ball than he did in college or even in the pre-season. Could just be a small sample size though.

I think since I watched him throughout all of his college career and even saw him play in high-school (and got to play softball against him once) I have a little different perspective on him, albeit a potentially biased one. But I just keep in mind that basically he got zero pro-style QB...

Considering that Kaep is among the league leaders in yard-per-attempt, I don't think you can attribute his jump to just "short passes." But yes, scheme is important. There is something to be said about putting your guy in the best situation to succeed.

Kaepernick: College 58.2% NFL 65.4%. Alex Smith had a career completion percentage of 55.6% before Harbaugh. In '11 it was 61.3% and was at 70% in '12 before getting benched. I think accuracy can be coached.

If you look at when the Yankees started spending big (really not till 2001 after they lost to Arizona) it hasn't resulted in that many titles. Prior to '01 they were winning with home-grown talent. Also if you compare baseball to football the last 11 years: Last 11 Super Bowls vs 11 World...

Baseball has never had more parity than it has in the last 10-15 years (or so). There is no doubt that money can be a path to victory. But it isn't the only path, and like any other method of team-building, if a team built through spending isn't done so intelligently it won't work out. One of...

Both have pretty terrible match-ups. I would take Ben simply because he is at home. Kap has to go into CLink (1st year starting QB playing in the loudest stadium in the NFL), last time the Niners and Seahawks played the Niners WR's could not beat the Hawks man coverage and the Niners pattern...

I made my first beercan chicken last night. Super easy, just rubbed down the chicken with some olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme, shoved a 1/2 full beer up its rear and baked it for an hour at 400. Super juicy and delicious. You can get an inexpensive rack to make the chicken more stable.

Having dabble in being a fish enthusiast in the past, I know people who are into fish will go far and wide to find what they are looking for. I would drive a couple of hours to a hole-in-the-wall fish store if they had the blue tang fish I was looking for. So in that respect, you might be able...

Unless your league scores turnovers different than standard scoring, fumbles only count against a player if the other team recovers. The 49ers recovered all of Kaepernick's fumbled snaps.

Just so you know, I really hate you right now.

I did some looking into trademarking as well. Information I have found is very convoluted. From what I understand you don't have to register your trademark at all. Simply throwing a (TM) at the end of your name/whatever stakes your claim to your trademark. However I think it is much easier...

Tecmo Bowl. Just run Montana backwards forever then throw bombs to Jerry Rice. Couldn't be stopped. And on defense Ronnie Lott could catch everyone but Walter Payton.

This. That is why you make guys like Brady one of your top picks, they are virtually match-up proof.

Built into Obamacare is the 80/20 rule. What it means is that insurance companies must spend at least 80% of revenues received directly on medical care and can only spend up to 20% of revenues on administrative costs. That is where that "$1.5 billion in savings" came from in article above...

If you like that, also check out Georgetown Brewing. The guy who made the African Amber (and several other of Mac and Jacks recipes) is now the head brewer at Georgetown.

So that isn't my cat... but it's my cat

No need to get angry, we can be civil. I didn't say that part specifically was bad. However, people like you are going to drive prices up. That is simply the way it is. Obamacare is suppose to offset this increase by forcing everyone to buy insurance. Healthy people will subsidize the costs...

Taken straight out of that article: Some people got rebates thanks to the 80/20 rule. But the savings received via that have been dwarfed by the increases premiums most health-care consumers have been facing since Obamacare has started to phase in, with the biggest driver of premium increases...

Who I really have to thank is my great-grandpa, he is my dads influence. My parents have a slew of gear, 5DII, 7D and a ton of lenses. I can pretty much borrow from them at any time which is nice since I can ill-afford yet another expensive hobby. My dad ended up with a lot of my great...

I'm just the opposite, I have a hard time finding the motivation to go out and take pictures (most of my pictures are when I had my camera with me, but hadn't necessarily intended on trying to take pictures), but I will spend hours in Lightroom tweaking one picture. Ansel Adams always said...

In the short term, it is actually driving insurance rates up. http://www.sfgate.com/health/article...up-4079244.php Problem is that insurance companies are basically stuffing their coffers because they will have to start covering anyone even with pre-existing conditions. Now all the...

Yes, but that would be a PPC league (Points per completion).

I admit to skimming a lot of this thread, but I'll chime in about Vegas really quick. I generally limit my trips to either 3days/2nights or if on business 4days/3nights. Anything more than that I get Vegas'd out in a hurry. Also I personally didn't think the Medieval Times thing was worth it...

If you aren't worried about hiking around with your skis/snowboard strapped to it or anything like that, something as simple as a Camelbak should work for you. The Camelbak HAWG should be plenty of space to carry your lunch plus an extra layer of clothing.

You could make the same argument for helmets. You shouldn't ever be putting yourself in a position to need a helmet, but accidents happen. Or avalanche beacons for that matter. If you are going to be in the back-country you cannot 100% eliminate the risk so the more safety equipment you have...

Thanks, I am very amateur but every once in a while something turns out for me. Quality by volume works well for me. My parents are both also very good photographers, I will have to ask them if I can post some of their work, it is very good. One more from me. This was taken with my cell...

I am not sure, but I don't think so. However, there will be subsidized options for purchasing health care if you are below a certain income threshold.

It's funny, this summer when the entire US was gripped in that huge drought/heat wave, if you looked at the climate maps that showed how much hotter than normal everywhere was, Washington was the only state that was cooler than normal. Seems like global warming has effected everything but the...

I use a Dakine backpack. It is probably 12+ years old so you won't find the exact model that I use, but what I like is that it has a place to keep a hydration bladder and a good system for strapping either skis or snowboards to it for backcountry stuff. Still small enough to where I can use it...

My old ride. '87 XJ lifted on 33"s. Picture taken on the Rubicon. My current ride. '75 Bronco on 37"s. Also have a '05 Ford Explorer for getting to the mountains and a '12 Jetta TDI for daily driving and to keep the wife happy. But neither of those are photo-worthy.
