RE: Dallas Cowboys - what seems to be the problem?

Romo is one of those guys that plays mediocre for you but as soon as you trade him he would play like a superstar.

RE: are leaves turning in the Smokies yet?

We just spent the last week there. The trees are just starting to show signs of changing...some yellow and red leaves on certain types of trees. The hiking trails were almost empty and traffic wasn't bad at all in the park. The big traffic problems were in Pigeon Forge with two back to back weekends of car shows. The locals told us the traffic would get worse in October with the leaves changing.
Just got back from there myself. We didn't see much color changing. Oh a couple of trees but they could have just been dying. I agree, the park was pretty much empty. October is the busiest month there.

RE: Can you just "fall off" a cruise ship??

The last thing anyone heard was "Here. Hold my beer and watch this!"
Steve has it right. Most of the time when someone goes off a ship the person is either doing something stupid or alcohol is involved causing a person to do something stupid or they WANT to go overboard
It is very hard to just fall off a cruise ship. I stand about six feet tall. The railing comes up to my chest. The media likes to play it up.
It's my understanding from what I've read that this young man had a few personal issues going on in his life. For those that have teens, you need to watch them, get involved if you can. Something really small to you, might be really big to them.
It's Sad and my prayers goes out to his family and friends.

RE: Transportation chief eyes taxing miles driven

On one hand they say buy a electric or a hybrid then turn around and say it doesn’t matter that you are not using as much you will be charged an additional tax on the amount of miles driven.

RE: Who has the longest lived, working Microwave oven ?

Old microwaves are no good, they can leak radiation. They shoud be replaced evey two years or so or at least checked for radiation leaks every two years.
It can cause Skin Cancer, Dizziness and Headaches, and Blood problems.
We had one that was five years old and we had it checked out and was told that it was leaking way too much radiation. I saw it myself
No problem, had the seal replaced and good to Go!!!

RE: Mike Shanahan Fired

Charlie I'm a die hard Cowboy fan but I have to agree with Skid Row on this one. Wade Phillips needs to go, he can't get his team motivated nor does he seem to know what’s going on, on the field.
He is exactly the type coach that JJ likes and that is a do boy. Now his dad knew how to motivate his team (the Houston Oilers)
:h I agree, Wade has to go. He has been a good defensive coach wherever he has been but is not head coaching material. See my post several columns up. Joe is not calling for Wade's dismissal. He's just making fun of the Cowboy's and everyone involved. To use Joe's analogy, Romo has to go.
I agree with another poster, Romo has another year to prove himself or he should be gone. I would get rid of T.O. now. He drops too many balls.
Offensively, they have been too inconsistent. Some games they were gangbusters and others they were too predictable. Defensively, they have been great some games and mediocre others.
People can say what they want about Jones, and I don't like him, but he is committed to winning Super Bowls and puts out the money. Often too lavishly and too quickly.
Coaching in the NFL is tough. As another poster said, how long will Parcells remain at Miami? He did a poor job coaching his last year at Dallas and has left too many other teams hanging with his sudden departures. He has done a good job in the front office but I think the game has passed him up with the newer players, their demands and refusal to take instructions from the coaches.
I totally agree with everything you said. BTW I was in Arlington Tx last week and the new stadium is a sight to see. I’ve seen nothing like it before.

RE: Mike Shanahan Fired

Should have never accepted the puppet-position with Jerrah the convict lover. Phillips looks like an oaf on the sidelines. Has no idea what is going on on the field. No passion, what a doofus! Exactly the kind of coach thge real coach Jerrah wants, a do boy. LOL!:)
There you go being mean again. Where is that sweet,tender nature?

RE: Jan 1st ,no more cigarettes

The nicotine gum worked great for me then after about a month I started chewing regular sugar free gum
I had tried the patches earlier but with the gum your mouth is doing something.
I still chew sugar free gum and have the cleanest breath or at least I’ve been told;)
Good luck and throw everything away tonight including your lighter when you go to bed

RE: football trivia question?????

I don't believe that a regular season game has ever been called for weather. The Chiefs once had a pre-season game ended early because of severe lightning in the area. I can't recall who was the other team.
I agree, the game in San Fran was a baseball game

RE: Mike Shanahan Fired

Detroits looking for a good coach...So is Denver ;)
So is Dallas...
They need to be, there is absolutely no leadership in this entire organization, from top to bottom. Do you think for one second Romo would have waived the punt team back under Parcells, Johnson or Landry? Did you see Wade's reaction? He looked lost, he's no more than a Jerry Jones do boy.

RE: How did your kids pay for college??

In Florida, they have a little thing called Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program. This Florida Lottery-funded scholarship rewards students for their academic achievements during high school by providing funding for them to pursue postsecondary educational and career goals in Florida.
My son got a engineering degree at FSU and didn't cost us a dime. I take that back, we did have to buy a few books but he tutored and paid for most of them himself.
Went on to get his masters in accounting and a MBA

RE: Sunday NFL games..

Yeah my Cowboys got their butts beat bad. They need change
These are just some that I suggest off the top of my head
1. The coach. Sorry Wade. You seem like a nice guy but you need to go. Who’s coaching the team, you or Romo
2. Coordinators. Some of you are gonna go. Maybe all of you. Too bad. Clean out your lockers and turn in your card keys.
3. T.O. - Sorry buddy. But you draw the worst kind of press. Take Pacman with you.
4. Tony Romo... You have one more year to prove you aren't the next coming of Bernie Kosar.
