Report: Unnamed Vikings Say Brett Favre Doesn't Respect Brad Childress {Fanhouse NFL Blog}
Aug 19th 2010 5:10PM Favre is simply not a leader; he sees himself as a VIP. While he has had some success on the field, most of the fans have lost their limited respect for him. He is just a pampered football player.
Tim Tebow Misses 2nd Straight Practice {Fanhouse NFL Blog}
Aug 19th 2010 5:04PM Just like what has ben written. Tbow is simply a big full back that threw the ball in Fl. If you saw his last game, his 'long' throwing motion will get him run over in the pro and will result in interceptions. During the game it was clear that he was trying to shorten his motion, but under pressure, he simply fell back to his old ways. No magic here, he will be a bacup fopr a long time, and then cut or converted to a running back. He is just not an NFL QB.
Caught on tape: Basketball shot made from a theme park ride {Gadling}
Aug 19th 2010 4:07PM Great job of film editing....better than most, but not as good as some, e.g., Dude Perfect Shooters. Could have done a more refined job at the interface of the blue background and gray-scale backboard, also, the timing of the sound is just a bit off (fram by frame mode), but still pretty good.

Aug 9th 2010 2:43PM Where is Hooters? They have the very best wings in the world. Whenever I want wings, I go to Hooters. Heck, when I want a beer I go to Hooters. Heck, when I want to watch a sports show, I go to Hooters...because the wings are so great. How come they didn't make the list? I guess the tree-huggers in Colorado just dont like hooters...or it must be all the women in the survey. Heck, Hooters is the only place for real men to get wings! Opps...got to go now, my wife is snapping her fingers and when she wants to go to Golden Coral, I dont sand in her way!

25 Resume Tips That Help Make a Great First Impression {AOL Jobs}
Aug 2nd 2010 5:02PM I am a former senior level hiring authority --- think in terms of Electron Microscope Operators and Trainers; English language teachers; Satellite Uplink managers, designers, and techs; etc. The advice to leave off an Objective or similar statement in a resume is pure and total BS. My HR folks, after they made an initial sort, would at times dropped 50+ resumes a week on my desk. If I did not quickly see a clearly stated objective that clearly stated a position that I needed to fill I threw the resume in the trash! If I needed a SEP tech, then I want the Objective to state something like '...seeking a position as a SEP Technician.' Without such a statement there was simply too many resumes and too much time required to figure out what the applicant was applying for. My recommendation to job seekers....now read this next read carefully....MAKE IT EASY, VERY EASY ON THE HIRING AUTHORITY TO HIRE YOU!
Unpopular taxes and fees cropping up everywhere in the nickel and dime economy {WalletPop}
Jul 28th 2010 12:03PM Essentially, the fees mentioned in the article are Use Fees; that is, paid by those who use the services vice paid for by the general population who do not use the service. I would like to see Use Fees on Yacht Clubs, Waterway Use, Canal Access and Use Fees, etc. In general, the truly rich use a much higher percentage of public services than middle and lower income folks. The only way to get the truly rich to pay for their increased use is to change them a use fee.
'Liespotting' Book Sharpens Your BS Detector Skills {Asylum}
Jul 21st 2010 3:21PM All you have to do is watch Obama to determine a baseline of never-ending lies, half-truths, and mis-statements. Still no jobs, unemployment is greater than 8%, the country is still divided, and there is simply no hope that this administration will do anything to help small businesses. Just watch Obama and you can earn a PhD in the art of finding a liar.
Jimmy Johnson Signs on With 'Survivor' {Fanhouse NFL Blog}
Jul 21st 2010 2:45PM Hmmm. Poor Jimmy Johnsoon or better known as Little Di.k Johnson. He needs to find another product to hawk on the side of the road. Im sure wish that we would keep him off of the sports page and put articles about him on the wierd and unusual page.
