  - Seriously, that *is* a movie premise. -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 14:40
CNN picked a bad month to fire their 4 online reporters. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:20 2
- Or since they'd obviously be working a lot, you could say it was just in time -- nm - con_carne Jan 13, 14:24
- did NBC just give them a late night show? -- nm - peglegpete Jan 13, 14:24
the f*ck? - znufrii Jan 13, 14:19 9
- I can pay my vehicle registration with Discover and no other card. - Cuzzin Todd Jan 13, 14:20 6
  - sure, there are places that will only accept a certain card, but I've never come across a place that accepts Mastercard and not Visa. -- nm - znufrii Jan 13, 14:28 3
    - I just found it odd that it accepted probably the least carried card of the bunch. - Cuzzin Todd Jan 13, 14:34 2
      - agreed, that's odd. I wonder if Discover is thinking that "exclusivity" deals like the big dogs make will get them more market share? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:35 1
        
        It probably has more to do with the fees - Discover probably has the lowest. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jan 13, 14:42

fun fact, since the BCS started the SEC is 14-5 in BCS bowl games, teams that play west of the Rockies are 13-6 - crash davis Jan 13, 14:17 16
- This post is hilarious in combination with the more detailed one below. -- nm - David Jan 13, 14:20 8
  - sure, who wouldn't want to beat up on Eastern Middle Tennessee A&M every year. real teams put on their big boy pants and play with the big boys -- nm - fatsquatch Jan 13, 14:26 1
    - In our defense, it's not our fault that the opposing teams in the national champiosnhip game never look like they're wearing big boy pants. - David Jan 13, 14:30
  - I like the post you put up. The dude through out stats without actually naming names which would strengthen the view of the PAC-10 and lessen the SEC -- nm - crash davis Jan 13, 14:24 5
    - Wha? It's the whole thing, Crash, not some carefully selected cherry picking stats that STILL show the SEC as the best. - David Jan 13, 14:29 4
      - I'm saying your post below is a carefully constructed set of stats that hides the fact that the Pac-10 will play the big dogs and the SEC won't -- nm - crash davis Jan 13, 14:40 3
        
        That doesn't make any sense. The SEC plays the big dogs every year. It's called the conference schedule. - David Jan 13, 14:42 2
        
        "Okay, two of you go undefeated in conference play , Vanderbilt you lose all - the rest of you split the games evenly so no ones record sucks - crash davis Jan 13, 14:50 1
        
        Judas Priest, Crash. You're sounding like Guy right now. - David Jan 13, 14:59
- the SEC ought to try traveling west of the Mississippi during the regular season to play sometime -- nm - fatsquatch Jan 13, 14:18 6
  - I'm not sure who to blame for the one game lead the SEC has over the west. Its either you or Redmond or musubi -- nm - crash davis Jan 13, 14:21 5
    - *looks at his alma mater's BCS record* I think I know the answer to this one. (nm) - musubi Jan 13, 14:24 4
      - I'm talking about Hawai'i's loss in its only BCS game. - crash davis Jan 13, 14:25 3
        
        That team *got* to a BCS bowl. That's almost proof that there is a God. - musubi Jan 13, 14:28 2
        
        June Jones is pretty good. -- nm - David Jan 13, 14:31 1
        
        If UH could have beaten Wisconsin (yeah-that wasn't gonna happen) it would've produced a dream Hawaii Bowl matchup of UH and SMU. - musubi Jan 13, 14:33

- Was this from UT alum Gene Wojne...uhm, you know who I mean? - musubi Jan 13, 14:26 4
  - No. It's Jason Vida. - David Jan 13, 14:27 2
    - When you're really the best, you don't need to tell people you are. They tell you. (nm) - musubi Jan 13, 14:36 1
      - You don't have to tell people, but that doesn't make it any less fun because you know and they know and they're bitter about it. - David Jan 13, 14:38
  - wanna bet? -- nm - SEC Refs Jan 13, 14:27
uh-oh, reply-to-all got someone again. - b. Jan 13, 14:15
CNN asks the President of Haiti: "Where are you going to sleep tonight?" ... President says: "I don't know." - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:15 20
- I'd have maybe phrased it differently, but it's not an unreasonable question - Reagen Jan 13, 14:23 1
  - I thought it was a decent question, but some of the follow-ups were ... yikes. - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:25
- "How about you stop asking retarded questions and pick up a shovel?" nm -- nm - President Jan 13, 14:16 17
  - also, didn't we have people bitching jsut today that there hasn't been enough coverage? Damned if they do and damend if they don't. -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 14:27 5
    - well, JackDawson commented that he was surprised that ST wasn't all a-blabber about it. Does that count? -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:29
    - coverage is fine, asking dumb questions of someone who has more important things to do.... - groiny Jan 13, 14:28 3
      - like I said above, it's more than a trivial question. -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 14:29
      - well, really, he's a politician ... what's he got to do? :) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:29 1

    - This is part of why I do not watch the news. - groiny Jan 13, 14:20 9
      - Seriously, TMZ asks better questions. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:21 8

        "hey Paris, how was the cock this weekend?" nm -- nm - TMZ Jan 13, 14:22 6
        
        "Mr President of Haiti, I have an important question. Harvey Keitel: Jew or not a Jew?" -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:23 5

        "I am sorry ... in Haiti, we can only afford to have one Lie-Max theatre - and it is now rubble." -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 14:26 3
        
        "And how upset about that are you?" nm -- nm - groiny Jan 13, 14:29 2
