Anyone own a street bike (Crotch Rocket)???
I dont own one but I rode a friends Hurricane 1000 for 6 hrs to the beach one year. It wasn't until the 2nd day there that I could stand up straight. I didnt ride it back home.

Eagles vs. Cowboys
Its about to go down, who's coming out on top? I hope the Eagles win.
-
Chargers got hosed
And they did just that until the bungled call. The Chargers were winning when the ref SHAFTED them.

Chargers got hosed
HOLY UNDERSTATEMENT BATMAN!! Once the Charger defender picked up the FUMBLE, that was game over. Take a snap, time runs out, Chargers win, thanks for coming. You think?? ;D I'm sure you'd feel the same way if it had been the Broncos that had just gotten SHAFTED! LOL! The Chargers will be affected by that loss come playoff time.....all because of a WRONG call. Forgot to add....I hate both teams involved so there is no bias.

All other reels should just give up...
I refuse to believe that. You might as well just mail me one of those Curado's and let me see for myself. You know I'm not a Shimano fan so there's no chance I'll want to keep it. Plus, there is more to a reel than just how far it can cast. We're talking brakes, weight, smoothness, spools, drags, etc....I dont see that new Curado having a better drag than any of my Revo's. And I'd much rather have a silky smooth drag than I would being able to throw just a little further (if in fact I can throw it farther than my Revo's, which I doubt).

The Colts.....
The Colts need to get the running game going.....like the Raiders did today! WOOOO HOOOO!!!! 23-8 over the Chefs.

Can crankbaits replace spinnerbaits??
There are better scenarios for each one although both can be worked in the same places for the most part, if that makes sense. Both are merely tools. You just have to assess the situation in front of you and take the best tool out of your tool box. That said, I have the ultimate confidence in a crankbait so I will always pick up a crankbait first. Always.

USC VS OSU
OSU would have been a little better if Beanie Wells would've played but not 30+ points better. OSU was exposed.....AGAIN. Love it!

Motor dying under full throttle
Yeah, sounds like it's not getting enough gas. Just make sure you get the primer bulb installed in the correct direction. LOL! Learned that the hard way a long time ago.

The insanity begins: What are your local Gas Prices?
....as it should be. CROOKS!!

Oil Prices Plunge!
RW, you may want to change the title of this thread to "Oil Prices Plunge while Pump Prices Soar" !! CROOKS!

Oil Prices Plunge!
Even if someone did answer that question it would most likely be a lie. Price gougers typically won't divulge anything that makes them look worse than they already do.

FLW Cup.....
It will be a game of ounces again like it was at the Classic a few years ago in Pittsburgh. (3 day total of 12-15 won it) Makes for some exciting weigh-ins if you don't have the need to see big fish come across the stage.

Hats Off To the Oakland Raiders
The NFL passed right by Al Davis and he didn't even see the blur. Davis is 'old school' and will be until the day he dies. He has full control of all personnel decisions, including the head coach, his coaching staff, the ball boys, the water boy, hot dog prices, etc. The guy is a control freak. Jerry Jones (Davis' good buddy) was smart enough to give up some control when Parcells took over and look at them now. They're at the top while the Raiders are still at the bottom. This past offseason he tried to get head coach Lane Kiffin to quit because Kiffin wanted to get rid of Rob Ryan (Raiders D coordinator). Davis said no. He and Kiffin had a 'falling out' and Davis asked him to resign. Kiffin, being a smart fella, declined. If he quit, he wouldnt get paid. If Davis would've fired him (which he was probably praying for), he would have been paid. So now the owner and head coach are at odds after just one season. I believe Kiffin's contract runs out after this year and I fully expect him to be gone even if he turns the team around and Davis wants him to stay. But if he doesn't show major improvement by about mid-season, Davis might load him in the cannon and fire him off early. This is just one example of how Davis exhibits total control over anybody in the Raider organization. He stuck it to Mike Shanahan (now Broncos coach) back in the early 90's and he's one hell of a coach. John Gruden was a great coach but Davis & Co. ran him off too. Gruden built a great team in just a few years in Oakland only to be run off and then beat them the very next season in the Super Bowl. Davis has admitted in the past that he hates to lose but I question that when I see all the stupid moves he continuously makes. It's very disappointing to be a Raider fan these days. Rant over. Sorry about that.

....and who's your team muddy? Thats what I thought. No smack talking unless you have a favorite team that I can fire back on. Gotta play fair.

Hats Off To the Oakland Raiders
As a life long Raider fan I can honestly say that I'm about to jump off the ship until Al Davis either steps aside or passes on (not hoping for him to die, by the way). The team is a mess year after year and Al Davis is the core of the problem. They can't get a good coach because all of them know what Al Davis is like to work for. They cant even get 'good' people to come in to interview for the job and listen to what Davis has to offer. He goes thru coach after coach, pays big money for draft picks and free agents but doesn't bother to get a coach that can understand how to best utilize what they have. These top draft picks are essentially rotting their careers away in Oakland, just waiting for their contracts to be up so they can hit the highway. I dont blame them. They have no WR's left that are worth anything but fully expect Russell to be 'the man' and run the team. Gimme a break. Raiders s u c k. Commitment to Excellence...my @$$

Drop shot trick and tactics.
While a drop shot can catch fish when casted and retrieved horizontally, the original invention and intention of the drop shot technique was to target deep, finicky fish with a vertical presentation that could stay in a certain spot for extended periods of time. Fishing it vertically allows you to be right over top of a single fish or a school of fish and 'drop' the bait right in their face. Once the bait gets in their face, you just either shake it a little bit or let it act with the current. And the whole time, the bait has remained right there in the strike zone. I rarely fish a drop shot horizontally so I really can't say much to help you there. But if you're fishing in private ponds, get some frogs, buzzbaits, jigs and big worms and you'll most likely forget all about a drop shot. It is good to learn though, don't get me wrong.

Which is the most reliable?
Revo S

Who's your Superbowl picks?
Jets vs. Packers ....and Favre retires (for real) after receiving the MVP trophy

Brady Down...
I agree with the logic of being a good, hard hitting safety but Harrison has been fined and suspended in the past for some of his actions. A player usually doesn't get fined for a 'clean' hit.

ECU Pirates!!!
Are Spurrier & Spurrier teams always over-rated or is it just me?

2009 Bassmaster Opens
I agree. BASS is definitely missing the boat on the west coast.

Brady Down...
Cheap shot? Brady still has the ball, the whistle hasn't blown. You go till the whistle blows. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnHcSujDMh4 MY LORD, Burley is right. When I played the game, you played until the play is blown dead.. As for cheap shots, what is the New England saftey's name????????he is the "King" of dirty play and cheap shots!! That would be Rodney Harrison

Abu Garcia Vs. Pflueger
I'd go Revo, no doubt.
