Another KC Chief behind bars

You are fooling yourself if you think that growing older means growing "wiser". Also, couple of corrections for you to keep in mind- However, As Tina- I think you meant ", as Tina" it takes many differant -different (spelled with an e) My point, through out this whole discussion- you mean throughout players performance on the field- that would be player's performance

Another KC Chief behind bars

Does anyone really know what happened in this case? Not really, so arguing is poinless. There is so much gray area in cases like this. Unless someone can definately say what heppened at the night club, then forget about it. One thing I have learned is not to trust the media. Bad news sells, so they sell bad news. If you dont think the world isnt going to heck in a handbasket- your are really blind. Try raising kids and tell me that they world doesnt scare you! This statement does have a "holier then though" appearance mainly because it implies that if you dont have kids, you dont have moral conscience enough to detect problems in society. I agree with you that there are problems in society. Its not our society though, its people. As long as there are people in a society, there will be problems in it. Always has been, it is no different today. Sorry its just one of my pet peeves when people use a "doomsday" esque reference to society today. Society is not worse, you are probably just changing your stance in society. (evident by the "try raising children" remark)

Perspective just doesn't mix with Columbus,

(I understand the value of a scholarship, but let's face it, it's akin to the limited membership at the local gym.) Are you serious? What kind of local Gym do you go to? I believe that college level athletes should get a stipend from the school to support them since they are not allowed to have a job in any capacity. But, let's not act like they are not benefiting at all. These players are not going to be 50-100 thousand dollars in debt once they are handed their diploma. Must be one hell of a local gym. As far as the dropped pass, anyone that feels bad about the dropped pass needs to look and Chad Henne's performance this past week. A quarterback that was actually a Pre-season Heismen hopeful (albeit not a realistic one) had the worst single game performance by a U of M quarterback in the past decade. U of M lost to an inferior (although much improved over last year) ND team. Lloyd Carr is probably the coach that gets the least out of his players in all of D-1. Michigan constantly brings in top talent but always pisses away a stupid early season game. That tells me the coaching staff isnt doing their job. That all said, dont be too pissed in Columbus. Texas will win the title this year. No other teams defense is as fast as OSU's and they didnt even contain him very well.
