Death Race 2007 Unnecessary is the entire point of the Tough Guy competition, a semi-annual 8-mile race through mud, manure, water, fire, more mud, barbed wire, nets, electrical charges, still more mud, smoke grenades, sewer pipes, ice, even more mud, ropes, cables, tires, on a horse farm in England's West Midlands. Make sure to check out the vid at the top of the page.

Crazy, neverheard of such a thing. Did it say in the video how long it takes, didn't have the sound on?

NFL Refs change uniforms. And it isn't necessarily a good thing. (First link has links to video of presentation of new unis.)

woah, woah, I thought along with the new uniforms that the home teams cheerleaders were taking over officiating.

Perhaps, an incentive could be offered for better officiating. Along with the new uniforms, comes a new rule. Whenever a ref makes a bad call, which will be judged by a panel of average veiwers, that ref removes one peice of clothing. The incentive therefore, if you make good calls, you will not be naked in front of the veiwing public.

2007 NFL mock drafts already released in July. In this edition of the mock draft, they have my team the Bills goin no. 1 and getting Brady Quinn. Now the question is how will this change when the draft rolls around in 7 months.

I hope Calvin Johnson drops to 32 so the Steelers can get him.

Rescuers told Roethlisberger he was close to dying Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said Wednesday night that he was told he was "seconds, maybe a minute away from dying" immediately after his motorcycle accident last month.

he could have seriously been killed out there as opposed to being killed in a non-serious manner?

The 2,000-yard Rushers An unlikely source (The KC Chiefs homepage) for an insightful article. Especially interesting is the game-by-game: in Sanders' 2,000-yard season, he was shut down in week 1 and 2. Overall, it sure puts into perspective how tough the feat is to accomplish.

Some people just do not get sarcasm. Kind of like Barry Sanders in that one episode of 90210 where he had no idea what Brenda was talking about.

No, I am pretty sure that I am talking about Barry.

I agree that Barry should have stayed at least two more years, but if he wants to play baseball thats up to him. I am just mad that he is playing outfield for Kansas City. I wish he was somewhere that he could have a chance at a ring. What a total waste of talent.

Cement Soccer Balls? Who says soccer's not entertaining? I know I should feel sorry for those who fell for this, but the mental picture I get keeps me chuckling along.

I am working right now to create a 300 pound golf ball.

I would pay to watch people walk by and see who goes for the big kick. If you walk down the street, see a ball TIED to a pole, with a sign that says CAN YOU KICK ME, and you do it....maybe you should be tied to the pole with a sign that just says KICK ME

Momma don't let your babies grow up to play... Surprising. Figured a few others would have been ranked higher - rugby for example.

Tennis isn't like baseball, basketball, football or other team sports Your absolutly right, tennis players are tough SOB's. *sarcasm*

So, how would you celebrate one of if not the best rookie WR seasons in Bengal history? Would it be by getting arrested again and again and AGAIN!

You know all of those 47,360 golf accidents were at the end of 18, involving an empty cooler and a golf cart. http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/ view.php?StoryID=20060610- 062410-4754r

Roethlisberger gets out of hospital bed Ben Roethlisberger's broken jaw did not have to be wired shut, a factor that could hasten his recovery from his scary motorcycle accident, and the Steelers quarterback got out of his hospital bed Wednesday to talk with teammates and family members.
