Farm system QB Phillip Rivers asks Drew Brees what it’s like to play in the big leagues.
-Lombardi was wrong...it's the internet, not fatigue that makes cowards of us all. But then again, what do you expect. Not like the guy could see the future.

Rivers: How in the heck did you get out of the Chargers organization?
Brees: I faked an arm injury.
Rivers: Do you think I can fake an arm injury too?
Brees: With that throwing motion, you look like you already have an arm injury.

Jim Henderson is a class act
worked with him a couple times, he’s the reason I went into TV/Broadcasting, worked with Buddy D also. Two completely different styles and men. Jim the Ultimate Preparer, Buddy, the Last Minute Miracle.

I'm a bit confused here....
You said do a caption….so why is everyone doing dialogue? There’s never dialogue in a photo caption.

There are no hard and fast rules
Whatever is funny is welcomed.

Seriously, Beefy Mac."
This isn't about rules, it's about manners. Now there's no rule that says that I cant come over here and fart on your entree. But I don't do it. Why? Because it's not good manners.
