I gotta go with the Dallas Cowboys!
But, this year I don't see them going all the way. Romo still has a little more conditioning to do in my opinion. Also, T.O. is out for a couple games. :\
So who is your Favorite NFL Team?
Mine is the one with best record
Romo has been done in by the Jessica! She is nothing but bad luck...
Au contraire, mon ami... the correct answer is the reigning NFL champion Indianapolis Colts.
The Pats are gonna crash and burn...
cowboys
(only because someone gave me 3 cowboys shirts last year-i really don't know why! but they're cool in the summertime...)
I wouldn't be surprised if the colts won the super bowl again this year
NEW YORK GIANTS!!!!

I never had anything against the Giants but damn.. Eli needs to become a little more reliable. That game against the Bills... the Giants defense won that game for them.
Well, I'm am a home town kind of fan. I was born just south of St. Louis so I started out a Cardinal fan. (Yes a Cardinal FOOTBALL fan) I moved to Louisiana in 77 and for over 25 years I tried really really really hard to be a Saints fan........ but they never fail in finding ways to disappoint. Now I live in the Dallas area, so I'm gonna give them Cowboys a try. Ready made dynasty with 5 S.B. championships. I think they are going to be a team I can get behind. Looks like TO has shed the primadonna status and the drama that goes along with it. Just need him back and healthy. Romo has come into his own, but he needs to shed the distraction if you know what I mean. He also needs a little more maturity and experience. If they make it to the Super Bowl, it may be more pressure than he can take.
I have to pull for the Patriots somewhat.... they have one of my kin folk playing on that team (Wes Welker) so I gotta hope he does well.

Do you want the Cardinals back? I'm sure we Arizonans can arrange to cover the shipping charges...
Denver Broncos. Though their past is more interesting than current performance.

LOL, I wondered if someone was going to make that offer. I think the folks in St. Louis might pass on that.
I grew up in New Hampshire and have been a life long Patriots fan. I remember watching them get demolished by the Bears in their first Super Bowl. That just makes these last few and this season so much sweeter. I was hoping for two perfect teams this year, but Miami had to blow that by winning a game!
Did any of y'all watch the Pats - Ravens game? I'll prob get flamed now.. but Murderin Ray Lewis and the Ravens went to town on the Pats in that game. I also feel that they won. The time out called on that 4th down play was by a ravens staff member who legally was not allowed to make time out calls. The refs ignored it.
Ravens won that imho.
This makes 3 for the Cowboys! And yes, I think we might go all the way...

Well my lifelong beloved team has had some very bad seasons...however, I have always been and always will remain a loyal member of the Raider Nation!!
Oakland RAIDERS!!!
PS- the thumbnail is actually my first boot screen, and I have another Raiders image on my second boot screen...this is how much I love my team...pretty much everything I own has some form of Raiders insignia on it!
16 wins, a all time NFL record. The Pat's ROCK!! They seem extra motivated by the negative-press and non-believer's...

Yeah i think the Ravens deserved to win that game, but the thing about the Pats is that even though they've almost lost several games, they still pull out the W if even at the last second. And although Im not a fan and i was rooting for them to lose as much as anybody, I think they are an amazing team.
game 1 just finished and it was a great game, close game throughout. Just wanted to spread my excitement right now. [COLOR="#red"]GO CELTICS, BEAT LA!![/COLOR]
Let's See are the Celtics going to Follow in the Red Sox Shoes Or the Patriots Shoes? Excellent Jubilation or Crushing Defeat? Hmmm...
Boooooo! Go LAKERS!!

well i'm obviously hoping they follow the soxs, but it was only game 1 and both teams were getting adjusted to the playing style of the other. Celtics d was slacking, LA's pick and roll was killing us but LA's d wasn't that great either. Putting garnett in the post up is something we need to do more of, can't wait till Sunday for GAME 2..

LOL, my feelings are the exact opposite. BOOOOO LA, GO CELTS!! i forsee us winning this series AND THE CHAMPIONSHIP in 6 games. 3 IN BOSTON AND 1 IN LA. WE'LL SEE SUNDAY.
I'm definitely for BOOOOOO BOSTON. Boston has no finals experience nor do most of the players on the team so that's a huge downside. This is Doc River's first Final's appearance and the Zen Master has won 10 (not to mention the many other times he was there but lost). Let's see, Raja Bell had his turn, Bruce Bowen, and probably the whole Boston team will get a shot at him, but Kobe will get through Once again, great offense ALWAYS trumps great defense. Lakers will win in 5...max 6.
kareem9nba said:
I'm sorry but you can bring KG, Alonzo Mourning, Tim Duncan, Raja Bell, (the list continues on forever....), and they still wont stop him. I'm not all over him, but since i'm a huge fan of the game (been playing since i was 7ish and now i play high school ball), seeing such a player like that is just amazing. One thing you should remember, great offense will ALWAYS AND FOREVER trump great defense. History proves it . . .

I agree with you that Kobe is an amazing player - ask most people here in Colorado what they think of him as a person and you will get a far less complimentary assessment. That said, although I am a Boston fan I am also a Gasol fan, and my initial impression was that Kobe and Gasol would be too much for the Celtics, so I was pleasantly surprised when the Celtics took game one. The heroics of Pierce were inspiring. I am glad that it looks like it will be an exciting series (like the NHL final was!), and not a walkover. I would still bet on Lakers to win but I hope it goes 7.

with that AWESOME Celts road record, we'll see about that.
Ughh, those refs pised me off so bad--i felt like smashing all of them into the wall. WTH were those gay calls? Apparently, Kobe has to be shot down in order to get a foul or smacked on the face where as Rondo or Allen just have to be tapped. Lakers will still take it tonight--even if those gay refs don't cooperate.

i doubt they will take it tonight, boston d is on point tonight. Defensive boards and stops all day. Offense running the way it's suppose to, 11-0 run in the third with bryant on the court and no help from the refs, no bs call in second half so far. those fouls called on bryant first half, 2 of 3 he deserved running through celtics trying to break the screen? no good... Powe was killing the post in both halfs and rondo is doing a hell of a job running offense.
There's been a whole load of crap calls in the third. I'll say that the lakers are playing like crap as well. HORRIBLE SHOT SELECTION. BENCH NEEDS to step up and wth did Powe COME FROM!?!!? This just pissed me off.

The celts bench has a pretty good arsenal, mix of veteran and rooks that are ready at a moments notice. Powe, he finally got of the bench, he's always produced when needed. Only reason why he doesn't see much time is because perkins is mostly on the floor. And LA's D just isn't there. Up 20 pts going into the forth, BEAT LA!!!
Didn't like how it ended but the celts WIN!!! 2-0 BEAT LA!!!!
Well, if you're the Lakers, you're probably super pissed off, but then again feel some sort of relief. After playing one of the CRAPIEST games of the season and Boston playing amazingly, you manage getting the game to 2 points and a chance at the win. Not bad if you ask me. Had the refs not been so gay, LA would have had a chance to take the Finals back in LA. I still think lakers will get it in 6 (yes 4 straight).

well the celts played amazing D then got stupid in the forth and just let LA get the open looks they wanted and made. I'll give LA credit they have an array of guys who are spot up 3 point killers. Hitting 6 3's in the forth is just unacceptable.
LOL 4 straight? i dont think so. Boston takes game 4 and 6, Game over.
Don't worry even if LA comes back the Celtics will take one from the play book of the Patriots and find a way to cheat.
Besides the NBA is not a real sport. It has become entertainment more then anything. Honestly you could call a foul in the NBA on about every play. The refs make a huge deciding factor on the outcome of the game. To me....that is not a sport.
Just like the title states, what is your favorite poem?
Mine is London by William Blake.
I wander through each chartered street,
Near where the chartered Thames does flow,
And mark in every face I meet,
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.
In every cry of every man,
In every infant's cry of fear,
In every voice, in every ban,
The mind-forged manacles I hear:
How the chimney-sweeper's cry
Every blackening Church appals;
And the hapless soldier's sigh
Runs in blood down palace-walls.
But most through midnight streets I hear
How the youthful harlot's curse
Blasts the new-born infant's tear,
And blights with plagues the marriage-hearse.

What is your favorite poem?
The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes
The wind was a torrent of darkness upon the gusty trees,
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
The road was a ribbon of moonlight looping the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding--
Riding--riding--
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn door.
He'd a French cocked hat on his forehead, and a bunch of lace at his chin;
He'd a coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of fine doe-skin.
They fitted with never a wrinkle; his boots were up to his thigh!
And he rode with a jeweled twinkle--
His rapier hilt a-twinkle--
His pistol butts a-twinkle, under the jeweled sky.
Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard,
He tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and barred,
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter--
Bess, the landlord's daughter--
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.
Dark in the dark old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked
Where Tim, the ostler listened--his face was white and peaked--
His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay,
But he loved the landlord's daughter--
The landlord's black-eyed daughter;
Dumb as a dog he listened, and he heard the robber say:
"One kiss, my bonny sweetheart; I'm after a prize tonight,
But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning light.
Yet if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,
Then look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way."
He stood upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her hand,
But she loosened her hair in the casement! His face burnt like a brand
As the sweet black waves of perfume came tumbling o'er his breast,
Then he kissed its waves in the moonlight
(O sweet black waves in the moonlight!),
And he tugged at his reins in the moonlight, and galloped away to the west.
He did not come in the dawning; he did not come at noon.
And out of the tawny sunset, before the rise of the moon,
When the road was a gypsy's ribbon over the purple moor,
The redcoat troops came marching--
Marching--marching--
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door.
They said no word to the landlord; they drank his ale instead,
But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of her narrow bed.
Two of them knelt at her casement, with muskets by their side;
There was Death at every window,
And Hell at one dark window,
For Bess could see, through her casement, the road that he would ride.
They had bound her up at attention, with many a sniggering jest!
They had tied a rifle beside her, with the barrel beneath her breast!
"Now keep good watch!" and they kissed her. She heard the dead man say,
"Look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,
I'll come to thee by moonlight, though Hell should bar the way."
She twisted her hands behind her, but all the knots held good!
She writhed her hands till her fingers were wet with sweat or blood!
They stretched and strained in the darkness, and the hours crawled by like years,
Till, on the stroke of midnight,
Cold on the stroke of midnight,
The tip of one finger touched it! The trigger at least was hers!
The tip of one finger touched it, she strove no more for the rest;
Up, she stood up at attention, with the barrel beneath her breast.
She would not risk their hearing, she would not strive again,
For the road lay bare in the moonlight,
Blank and bare in the moonlight,
And the blood in her veins, in the moonlight, throbbed to her love's refrain.
Tlot tlot, tlot tlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hooves, ringing clear;
Tlot tlot, tlot tlot, in the distance! Were they deaf that they did not hear?
Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill,
The highwayman came riding--
Riding--riding--
The redcoats looked to their priming! She stood up straight and still.
Tlot tlot, in the frosty silence! Tlot tlot, in the echoing night!
Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!
Her eyes grew wide for a moment, she drew one last deep breath,
Then her finger moved in the moonlight--
Her musket shattered the moonlight--
Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him--with her death.
He turned, he spurred to the West; he did not know who stood
Bowed, with her head o'er the casement, drenched in her own red blood!
Not till the dawn did he hear it, and his face grew grey to hear
How Bess, the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the darkness there.
Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky,
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high!
Blood-red were his spurs in the golden noon, wine-red was his velvet coat
When they shot him down in the highway,
Down like a dog in the highway,
And he lay in his blood in the highway, with the bunch of lace at his throat.
And still on a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a gypsy's ribbon looping the purple moor,
The highwayman comes riding--
Riding--riding--
The highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard,
He taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred,
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's black-eyed daughter--
Bess, the landlord's daughter--
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair.

If
by Rudyard Kipling
IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
The Cremation of Sam McGee
by Robert Service
There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
Now Sam McGee was from Tennessee, where the cotton blooms and blows.
Why he left his home in the South to roam 'round the Pole, God only knows.
He was always cold, but the land of gold seemed to hold him like a spell;
Though he'd often say in his homely way that "he'd sooner live in hell."
On a Christmas Day we were mushing our way over the Dawson trail.
Talk of your cold! through the parka's fold it stabbed like a driven nail.
If our eyes we'd close, then the lashes froze till sometimes we couldn't see;
It wasn't much fun, but the only one to whimper was Sam McGee.
And that very night, as we lay packed tight in our robes beneath the snow,
And the dogs were fed, and the stars o'erhead were dancing heel and toe,
He turned to me, and "Cap," says he, "I'll cash in this trip, I guess;
And if I do, I'm asking that you won't refuse my last request."
Well, he seemed so low that I couldn't say no; then he says with a sort of moan:
"It's the cursèd cold, and it's got right hold, till I'm chilled clean through to the bone.
Yet 'tain't being dead — it's my awful dread of the icy grave that pains;
So I want you to swear that, foul or fair, you'll cremate my last remains."
A pal's last need is a thing to heed, so I swore I would not fail;
And we started on at the streak of dawn; but God! he looked ghastly pale.
He crouched on the sleigh, and he raved all day of his home in Tennessee;
And before nightfall a corpse was all that was left of Sam McGee.
There wasn't a breath in that land of death, and I hurried, horror-driven,
With a corpse half hid that I couldn't get rid, because of a promise given;
It was lashed to the sleigh, and it seemed to say: "You may tax your brawn and brains,
But you promised true, and it's up to you, to cremate those last remains."
Now a promise made is a debt unpaid, and the trail has its own stern code.
In the days to come, though my lips were dumb, in my heart how I cursed that load.
In the long, long night, by the lone firelight, while the huskies, round in a ring,
Howled out their woes to the homeless snows — Oh God! how I loathed the thing.
And every day that quiet clay seemed to heavy and heavier grow;
And on I went, though the dogs were spent and the grub was getting low;
The trail was bad, and I felt half mad, but I swore I would not give in;
And I'd often sing to the hateful thing, and it hearkened with a grin.
Till I came to the marge of Lake Lebarge, and a derelict there lay;
It was jammed in the ice, but I saw in a trice it was called the "Alice May."
And I looked at it, and I thought a bit, and I looked at my frozen chum;
Then "Here," said I, with a sudden cry, "is my cre-ma-tor-eum."
Some planks I tore from the cabin floor, and I lit the boiler fire;
Some coal I found that was lying around, and I heaped the fuel higher;
The flames just soared, and the furnace roared — such a blaze you seldom see;
And I burrowed a hole in the glowing coal, and I stuffed in Sam McGee.
Then I made a hike, for I didn't like to hear him sizzle so;
And the heavens scowled, and the huskies howled, and the wind began to blow.
It was icy cold, but the hot sweat rolled down my cheeks, and I don't know why;
And the greasy smoke in an inky cloak went streaking down the sky.
I do not know how long in the snow I wrestled with grisly fear;
But the stars came out and they danced about ere again I ventured near;
I was sick with dread, but I bravely said: "I'll just take a peep inside.
I guess he's cooked, and it's time I looked"; ... then the door I opened wide.
And there sat Sam, looking cool and calm, in the heart of the furnace roar;
And he wore a smile you could see a mile, and said: "Please close that door.
It's fine in here, but I greatly fear, you'll let in the cold and storm —
Since I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee, it's the first time I've been warm."
There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
Nothing beats Jabberwocky:
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Love's Philosophy
Love's Philosophy - Percy Bysshe Shelley
The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In another's being mingle --
Why not I with thine?
See, the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower could be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea; --
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon
See if I don't.

thank you
In Flanders Fields
In Flanders Fields
In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

I'm going to test out the Qik app on the G1 at this concert, and I'm inviting anyone to watch it live at my Qik page(which I'll post on the the 6 hour drive to Chicago). I'll post more info when I know concert lineups.
By the way, anyone going to be there?
holy crap i would kill to see mushroomhead and marilyn manson on the same stage. plus slayer, job for a cowboy and behemoth. i am a metalfan i wish it was coming somewhere near me.
Well I will definetly try to get some of those broadcasted for you. My friends and I are driving 6 hours to see this.
I went to the white river amphitheater show near seattle. Manson sucked, but ****in' slayer kicked ass. All the second stage bands were rad too. Loved cannibal corpse and trivium...

I know one of the reasons I'm going is to see Killswitch and Whitechapel. Also, ready to see the other bands to. Not a big Manson fan so if he sucked, not gonna be a big blow to me lol. CC is going to rock to I bet.

Yeah, Killswitch is sick. It actually sucked they cut all the sets short because of the noise limitations or some ****. Slayer played extra, which cut mansons set short at the end of the night, but I was okay with it. Have fun man!
Alright we have a couple music threads with post what music here blah blah. Nice way to find new music from around the world. But I want to know about you. If there is a song that epitomizes you, what is it? Maybe and probably a few do it more than one. Please explain the song and it's meaning to you.
First up:
KC and the Sunshine Band - Get Down Tonight
I'm a white guy raised in the South to be a redneck. But nothing gets me going more than a good groove and some dancing. I have roots in the ecstasy scene way back when, and that starvation for good vibes and good beats hasn't left me. The music running through my head all day keeping going is good funk, classic r&b, disco and techno. Literally that stuff is going through my head. I walk with a swagger strut and people think I'm cocky but nope, it's just George Clinton and the Parliament Funkadelic.
Pantera - By Demons Be Driven
My past is what drives me. Not to repeat it, but never repent it. If it wasn't for what has happened to me, I wouldn't be who I am. So, my past is what drives me to my future.
Queen - Fat Bottomed Girls
My ode to the greatest gals on earth. I love a well figured woman. Were the beauties of ancient times and still the graces of recent times. A timeless spectacle of perfection is fat bottomed girl.
Because its the first song I remember ever listening to by choice and not just because it came on the radio.
My old man went out and bought a copy on tape because he didn't want me dicking around with his vinyls at 5 years old.
Because its Kyuss.
ThatIsall.
Because this is surely one of the greatest albums ever recorded. It was the first album I ever bought with my own money.
These two because they are the greatest live performances I have had the privilege of seeing. I still get shivers when I remember watching RATM.
