The planes were real. There is video at different angles which was taken by amateurs of the second plane (in particular) and it is obviously not a hologram. Several eye witnesses were concerned from the beginning at the low flying planes. By the second attack many civilians were watching and witnessed the second plane. I respect that some people will have a different opinion than mine but I have never been a person to believe just anything the government throws out as "the truth" so I feel I am looking at this objectively but these conspiracy theories are really ridiculous in my opinion.
At any rate I DO respect the people on this board and happen to know that we are equals in intellect regardless of a difference of opinion so I will respectfully make this my only post in this particular thread. I only wished to express my sentiment without the chance of sounding like I am trying to belittle anyone elses opinion that differs from my own.
Peace

Packers expect Favre to start vs. Raiders, keep streak alive
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre is expected to start against the Oakland Raiders on Dec. 9 and keep alive his record streak for consecutive starts.
2007 Season Stats Att Comp Yds TD Int Rat
439 296 3323 22 10 97.9
"Just to quote the medical staff, his [starting] streak is not in danger. He'll be OK," coach Mike McCarthy said Friday, the day after Favre was knocked out of the Packers' 37-27 loss at Dallas with elbow and shoulder injuries.
His streak, which dates to 1992, stands at 249 games (269 including playoffs) and is a league record for quarterbacks.
The 38-year-old Favre was at Lambeau Field on Friday for treatment of a bruised right elbow. He also aggravated a left shoulder separation, which he first injured 15 years ago, on a hit by blitzing Dallas cornerback Nate Jones in the second quarter.
McCarthy said the medical staff didn't indicate that Favre had nerve damage in his throwing elbow, which had been feared after the game.
"It has more to do with the belly of the muscle around the elbow. It's not as severe as last year," McCarthy said.

Romo is a cocky looking prick Neemo (I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks that) but my real problem with him is the same one that James has, the NFL has really sucked him off. He has one of the best O-lines in football and one of the best receivers so naturally he should have a good rating...ANY decent QB should but only time and continued results will make him worthy as being the "next legend".

I bet it's not a tribe of native americans campaigning for the name change is it?
You guessed it, it's your average whiney middle classed stay-at-home Mom who has nothing better to do than to watch Oprah and Dr. Phyl and believes the media as the law and gospel. Therefore they must believe all white people are the evil of the world and it is their sole jobs to make sure they do their parts in "saving the world" from "whitey the devil".

Society has became totally insane when it comes to "an opportunity to take offense." Whether it be racial ("reverse racism" has became the flavor of the day as of late), sex-based, etc we are just LOOKING for something to offend us. My local high school football team is called the "Indians" and of course we have an Indian mascot. There is a big controversy now of changing the name and the mascot as to not offend the Native American population. It just doesn't stop. We have far too much to worry about in this country without trying to create problems by meaningless, petty crap.

Dallas did look good (I only got to see the Sportscenter stuff, thanks for giving updates James). I'm not convinced that Green Bay can't hang with them however. At one point they pulled within 3 and this was with Favre throwing a couple of interceptions (correct me if I'm wrong James I'm going strictly on memory of a 2 min or so postgame show on Sportscenter) and having an off night. To me that says Dallas are VERY beatable if Green Bay plays just a little better. If T.O. gets hurt they are done period I think. Romo's stats sound good (and are of course) but take away the T.O. receptions and TDs and you will see it becomes much more ordinary. Not saying Dallas isn't a solid team (I hate them too but fair is fair) I just don't think they are better than Green Bay on a night that Green Bay plays like Green Bay...maybe we will find out soon.
BTW, Slinger, what'd I tell you about Kolby Smith? Too bad he couldnt get that first down though...
You wasn't lying man. He and Brody Croyle may be the key to success next season. In reality KC are better than there record this year. They were competitive with Green Bay and the Colts and several of their games was lost by less than a touchdown. Our biggest problem right now is the O-line. Gonna have to fix that a.s.a.p.

I really wish Cable would add this or I may have to end up switching to Satellite. I just hate the hastle of changing everything. Enjoy the game James...let's hope Green Bay kicks the shit out of Dallas!
#1159 Re: The Sunset Strip » Jackson Five to reunite » 917 weeks ago
Michael's financial problems along with his brothers seeing another chance to suck some money off the tainted name of MJ is the only reason this is happening. I see no plausable way that Wacko Jacko could ever save his career after all that has happened and reuniting the "Jackson Five" is a sad and desperate attempt of trying to reclaim something that no longer exists. Money is definitely the only real motivator in this case.

Well tonight will be the second biggest game of the season so far when Green Bay and the Cowboys play. This is easily the biggest game since the Pats and the Colts played but this time only people who have the NFL Network (with the exception of the people who live in Green Bay and Milwaukee per the NFL's "home market over the air" agreement) will get to enjoy it. Total bullshit. The NFL is just a few steps away from becoming Pay Per View.
