Al Gore Knew It All Along...

13
Vote

by Cotter

Cotter is the esteemed author of Pittsburgh Steelers blog, One For The Other Thumb. For this type of crap and more, be sure to visit the link. Read it, love it, comment it, tell me I'm an idiot...your choice, and now onto the show...


Did I seriously just hear on CBS' NFL Today that global warming is a reason behind the increase in touch backs this season? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm sure there are perfectly good scientific reasons behind this statement (though chances are my scientifically challenged brain couldn't handle these truths anyhow). But honestly, did you ever think game day analysis would come to this? There's nothing else we could be analyzing besides how far the kickoffs have sailed this season?

Of course the other reason implicated was the K-ball factor - that this year, the league only uses 3 or 4 balls for games and the ball gets softer as it's used over the course of a game, thus resulting in balls sailing farther. And sure, this makes sense, too. But the fact remains that they spent a perfectly good 3-minute segment discussing kickoffs. That's 3 minutes of my life I'll never have back...thanks dicks.

Ladies and gentleman, I'm now tuning my TV to Fox...there may be significantly more mindless banter between Howie Long and Terry Bradshaw, but I'm pretty sure those brilliant minds would at least avoid the topic of Global Warming and its effect on kickoffs...

I blame Chad Johnson personally...

What you don't know is that football used to be played on ice. Eventually the ball shrunk in size and flattened right around the time they moved the sport indoors and called it hockey. Global warming is ruining the world of sports one day at a time. Next thing you know there will be fewer strikeouts in baseball because the heat and humidity in the air expands the wood in a bat and results in a smaller strike zone.

Global warming doesn't warm the weather. That's an important distinction you should know. Global warming refers to the warming of the ocean, which changes salinity and ocean currents, resulting in weather extremes of all types (heat where it used to be cold, cold where where it used to be hot, droughts AND floods, etc.).


I didn't see this segment, so I can't comment on the global warming discussion. However, I have to say that I don't have a problem with them discussing kickoff distance. It's a difference that affects the game in terms of scoring, how defenses and offenses play, how specials teams play... I have no problem with them discussing that. There is stuff to talk about in the football realm that falls outside of the Patriots and which QB is the best in the land.

10 points for the hockey analogy! Too bad GWBush ain't concerned with trivial things like the environment...

Yeah because if GWB cared more about the environment there'd be less touchbacks, and far more exciting kick returns! Is Devon Hester on the No-Fly list or something?

The NFL Today says a lot of stupid things and it doesn't help that Charley Casserly is a "Insider." I bet Glazer is licking his chops to get in a steel cage with him

You know, I would just play it off like that if it wasn't such a politcally driven statement.

Al Gore has a larger vagina than Hillary Clinton. Or would it be better stated that Hilldawg's penis is larger?

The issue was raised. I'm not trying to cause a ruckus. And I don't see why a liberal argument should be less welcome than a conservative one. If you don't want political stances here at all, I can dig it. But don't get pissed just because you don't like MY view.

And I'd REALLY appreciate it if someone would answer my questions instead of just giving me minuses for sincerely asking for explanations. That's just childish.

SCANDALS! SCANDALS! SCANDALS!

MANY OF THE WORST CASES OF RACIAL PREJUDICE IN WORLD HISTORY!

LONG LIVE PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!

Barack Obama is a racial minority and does not like racism.

WORLDWIDE DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION RELATING TO SCANDALS:

(I) I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed atrocious, racist, hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention. Many people know what Bush did. And many people will know what Bush did—even until the end of the world. Bush was absolute evil. Bush is now like a fugitive from justice. In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

(II) It is opined that Bill Clinton committed terrifying, racist, hate crimes during his presidency, and I am not free to say anything further about it. ‘Be sure your sins will find you out’ (Numbers 32:23).

(III) What if basically all racial-minority people would subscribe to the interpretations that George Herbert Walker Bush committed monstrous, racist, hate crimes while he was the President of the United States? It will eventually come out: it is only a matter of time.

(IV) I know it may be hard to believe. However, Ronald Wilson Reagan committed horrible, racist, hate crimes during his presidency.

- The Disseminating Machine

(There are thousands of copies on the Internet in the U.S.A. indicating the contents of (I), (II), (III), and (IV). For example, one can go to Google right now, type “George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism,” hit “Enter,” and readily find 1,000 or more copies indicating content of (I). For example, one can go to Msn right now, type “It is opined that Bill Clinton committed racist hate crimes, and I am not free to say anything further about it,” hit “Enter,” and readily find more than 500 copies indicating content of (II). For example, one can go to Msn right now, type “George Herbert Walker Bush committed monstrous, racist, hate crimes,” hit “Enter,” and readily find more than 260 copies indicating content of (III). For example, one can go to Msn right now, type “Ronald Wilson Reagan committed horrible, racist, hate crimes during his presidency,” hit “Enter,” and readily find more than 270 copies indicating content of (IV). The contents of (I), (II), (III), and (IV) exist very extensively in all major search engines in the U.S.A. and in numerous search engines beyond the U.S.A. There are thousands of copies in numerous countries around the world. For example, there are countless copies on the Internet in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Norway, Russia, Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, etc. Copies in foreign countries are typically written in respective foreign languages through the use of computer programs on the Internet that make such translations possible.)
