    I agree and also that picture is really cool. In case you didn't know why he put Ben on that clock it's because that clock is actually called "Big Ben". Contrary to popular belief BEN is named after the clock and NOT the other way around. That clock is in England and that's where we're playing this week. What's interesting to point out is that REALLY the CLOCK is NOT meant to be called Big Ben but the the Great Bell is named for the guy that installed it whose name was Benjamin. Ben is short for Benjamin. Not a lot of people know that. Also Benjamin is long for Ben. I personally just call it Big Ben and not Big Benjamin but if you see it differently I'm totally cool with that. The hands of the clock actually operate like the hands of all other clocks though. Many clocks are different. Time however is universally the same. That's really weird ya know?

    It's what comes after the obvious statement that confuses me. What happened? Did you get excited and start rambling?

    No. I was just being stupid and stating random things to see how long I could get him to keep reading and I guarantee you he didn't miss a word. LOL.

    Got it! Was wondering if someone should have called an ambulance for ya. You know those stroke symptoms and all. (Recently refreshed as we had a young guy go down with one a few weeks ago)

    I know you well my friend! I will tell you what I did last week at work. They told me I could go take this survey that asked my thoughts of how UPS done things. So at the end of the survey it lets you write a couple of paragraphs if you wish. So I wrote about why I thought it was really lame that the Steelers just couldn't seem to draft a good line to protect Ben. There was a supervisor in there and he was cracking up that I would do something like that. I said "I'm just proving a point that nobody reads this crap because a few years ago I wrote a long spill about how Batman and the Joker are actually mirror images of each other and one needs the other to exist. But really Batman is a good Joker and Joker is a bad Batman because they are both insane when you get right down to it." He was dying laughing. I told a big dog that to prove no one actually reads this someone should put that they're gonna drop some napalm on the hub at a certain time just to see if they actually say anything about it. I bet they wouldn't. LOL.

    DANG MAN THAT'S CRAZY!!! He just fell over or he started speaking in slurs? I've seen videos of people doing that like the news anchor lady and it was funny to see the other anchors react but those things are really nothing to laugh about. Did the guy get ok?

    LOL! I think you're the insane one. And I disagree about Batman, he's not crazy, just really really angry.

    Actually, he was complaining of a stiff neck for about a week. Called in to say he was headed to the emergency room. Next time he called he was starting to be incoherent and they were admitting him.

    Next thing we know he's getting transferred to a major hospital near Tokyo and he couldn't move his entire left side!

    While I half-heartedly agree, the $2000 I won on Holmes being MVP @ 16-1 tells another story ;)

    I'll take James Harrison as the MVP. That play turned the whole game around. Ben was having his usual mediocre game. He made a nice pass at the end to Holmes, but the catch was better than the pass.

    But remember Ben drove the team the whole length of the field to get to the final touchdown. Also Ben threw another pass in the end zone that Holmes dropped. That drive alone should of made Ben MVP and he was flawless then. :applaud:

    I was at the game and the gentlemen from Tampa sitting next to me said just before that final drive with the steelers losing and just over two minuets left, with over 80 yards to go, said: This is when legend's are made and he sure did it. :applaud:

    Just one year earlier Eli Manning had nearly the exact same stats as Ben and also threw a pass where the catch was better to help win the game, yet he still won the MVP and Ben didn't.

    Yep.
    But unfortunately 2 years later I said almost the exact same words to a Cowboy fan who was at my house for SB45 and that didn't turn out so well. :lolol:
    Cant win em all.
