    I feel like middle schools should take a month and teach people about nutrition. I know I took a health and nutrition class in high school, but it was a giant waste of time. Anyway, spend an hour or two in the next week reading about how caloric requirements work. If you need help, I can find...

    I think I say this every year, but it seems like a lot more people are out for the season already than in past years. Lots of ACL tears too.

    3 turnovers in 8 plays? It's a good thing the offense doesn't get the ball back in a real NFL game.

    Wow. I just spent some time reading about this, and that's one of the biggest crocks of horseshit I've read recently. So not only are you starving yourself on this retarded diet, but you're also paying out the ass for this bullshit coffee. Well done.

    Sounds like Jeremy Maclin's knee exploded today. Sucks for him, since it was the final year of his rookie contract. Eagles wideouts not looking so hot all the sudden. Basically just Jackson and Avant now with a bunch of people behind them I've never heard of. Good luck, Chip Kelly!

    In lieu of starting a new thread, I'll just put this here. For the 14 team auction league, here's the draft results from 2012 so you know keeper values. I don't remember how you figure out keeper values for waiver pickups. Looks like it also put everyone's 2012 keeper as the first pick in the...

    The Back to School Thread

    I think a lot of it was pop culture saying how hard calculus is. I'm assuming for a lot of people, it probably is very difficult. Personally, I had the same reaction in that I thought it was much easier than I was led to believe.

    If contracts keep going up, that's going to be insane. And also, you mention playing at a discount...but apparently Eli's deal is up in 2015. He signed one of those first mega contracts ($106 million). So are they just going to sign him to another $100+ million contract? Essentially it looks...

    Jury of your peers. Unfortunately, peers means an "average" person. And average people are retarded. They don't understand the law, they don't understand why they're there. That's why I think a good lawyer is someone who knows people and can appeal to their senses. A lawyer who knows the law...

    That's what doesn't make sense though. They gave him a contract essentially on par with Flacco (slightly more). If they're scared that that strategy will backfire on them...they end up with the contract they just gave him. Oh, and an extra year on his rookie contract.

    I absolutely get that. I wasn't trying to imply that. Just that past performance is a good indicator of future performance. What if the Falcons go 4-4 in the first half of the season? This contract will look awfully retarded. They could've locked him up for much less. If they go 8-0 in the first...

    It's like, I understand that's how QB contracts have been going, and you feel like you need to lock up your guy. And I think Ryan is a decent QB. But really, the Falcons could've offered him way less and if he balked at it, ride out that rookie contract for another year and reevaluate. If he...

    Geez, $59M guaranteed? I feel like the Falcons FO is doing it wrong. Manning - $58M guaranteed Flacco - $52M guaranteed Brady - $57M guaranteed (this is after his restructure this year to increase his guaranteed amount) Vick - $35.5M guaranteed Bradford - $53M guaranteed Brees - $40M...

    Look at that smug black guy in his fancy suit. Trying to keep the white man down. Those kids were probably just on their way home, got lost, and were looking into cars to see if there was someone to give them directions.

    Matt Moore sure did get fucked. Honestly, the guy seems to be on a talent level similar to Bradford. But because of crappy timing is now backing up friggin Tannehill! Although, apparently he just resigned for 2 years, $8M this offseason. So I guess he's got that going for him.

    I'm not really sure there's anything you can do for your deltoids that wouldn't also be hitting your neck/traps area. You may just start out really light and take it slow. Or ask someone in sports medicine for suggestions.

    Washington has a good offensive line all the sudden? They were ranked #27 in 2011 and added no one in the offseason. They were ranked #16 for 2012. This is more a case of having a good scheme for the QB and RB that allows the offensive line to look better than it really is. Believe me, that line...

    He didn't have many designed runs last year, or even as many read-option plays as everyone thinks. The problem is he would take off on broken plays and he doesn't know when to slide or get out of bounds. So really, the problem is RG3.

    Just as another point, I don't generally see poor whites blaming others for why they can't have upward mobility. I'd argue that blacks (and other minorities) have many more opportunities to raise themselves out of poverty than say, a white male. There are so many groups out there to help...

    Black people need to change their attitudes. It's a change that has to come from within their own communities. There's no changing the system to force a change, because that gives them a scapegoat. Until blacks take responsibility for policing up their own communities, nothing will change...
