        there should be an app. that's too much math -- nm - lovesick ass Aug 3, 09:58
      - I'd imagine so, just due to the sheer influx opf people that aren't there over the summer -- nm - znufrii, missing an arm Aug 3, 09:48 3

    - Yup. It just falls over the net usually and it's nearly impossible to get to it. I've learned to deal with the sped up game due to a point on every - Krusty Aug 3, 09:53 1
      - I don't care for either of those, but the point on every play isn't too bad. Does speed up the game...and at my age/weight, I need that. -- nm - Jim Aug 3, 09:57

        Take 4 games off, solve the DC budget crisis, then return in January and lead the Skins to the Super Bowl title by intercepting Tom Brady's 4th down - Will Hunting Aug 3, 09:30 6
        
        Exactly. -- nm - Spawn Aug 3, 09:31 5
        
        Then after that, he'll actually perform in the Pro Bowl and people will care. - Will Hunting Aug 3, 09:33 4
