“Does anyone else think Clark’s hit on McGahee should have been flagged as a personal foul? Helmet to helmet? Seems pretty simple to me.”

No. The initial hit was with the shoulder. The helmet contact occurred when McGahee lowered his head. The only helmet hit I saw was when Big Ben got speared in the back after a throw by #43 (don't know his name).

The Terrible Towel is poised and ready to strike.

I wonder how many Terrible Towel Imitators we will see at the game. They seem to be popping up all over the league. I know I saw fakes at the Giants playoff game. Hey teams go get your own thing!

Yes, wide recievers tend to be skinny because the position requires you to be speedy.

I suggest you eat some meat and eggs occasionally because the lack of important nutrients has obviously made your brain malfunction. It is VERY unnatural for our species not to eat meat.

Just some free medical advice...no need to thank me.

Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., said he would take the detainees in his own district, which lies just miles from the field near Shanksville, Pa., where United Flight 93 was crashed by terrorists on Sept. 11, killing all 44 people aboard.

“Sure, I’d take them. They’re no more dangerous in my district than in Guantanamo,” he said, calling the military prison a “sore in the United States’ moral standards.” http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/2169062/posts?page=31#31

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...but since we're on the subject: think back to 1986. Giants win SB XXI and Parcells gets a Gatorade shower for the first time. I believe the Steelers (and every subsequent SB winner) has done the same.

Giants fans aren't complaining...

But, it appears you're a youper, and I have a daughter at UMich, so we're buddies anyway! Good luck in the bowl...

It’s so unnatural that I increased my benchpress by nearly 40 lbs, was able to do a dip where for the first time in my life, I had to ADD weight to my body rather than be assisted, and where I had enough energy to do those exercises after an hour of taekwondo class. And after I did all of those exercises, I went ice skating. Oh, by the way, I rode my bicycle to taekwondo practice. Gee, when I still ate meat, I couldn’t do half of that. I wonder why?

Well, I guess you made my point: I talk about declining mental function and you talk about your bench press. Perhaps for each ten pounds increase in press, you lose 3 IQ points.

Veganism is totally unnatural for our species. Our line has been omnivorous for millions of years, while the other hominids that were vegetarians became extinct (perhaps there's a lesson there for you). Another tip-off for its unnaturalness is that it's impossible to get enough vitamin B-12 without supplementation eating a vegan diet.

And further, following your "logic," why is it ok for you to kill plants? They're certainly living, aren't they? How do we know that tomato you're slicing doesn't feel pain? Just because it doesn't scream?

Perhaps you should just eat dirt.
