Well, that would explain ESPN and TSN's coverage of the ridiculous over-the-top response by Ray Lewis to the Deer Antler Spray (is that trademarked?) related allegations.

i would call it "deer schmear"

lulz, their commercials have been crap for years just like most commercials, but i thought that jeep one was over the top before. ad companies use soldiers sometimes. i get it. this one was just flat out too much.

and i'm not a big flag waver myself. i just don't like when patriotism is used in order to sell stuff. hitler did that.

no argument whatsoever, red. i am not a fan of pandering in marketing. i'm not a fan of marketing at all - but playing the patriotism card is low, even by their standards. if u don't buy OUR product, you hate OUR country.

wrong - i just hate people who stoop to the level YOU guys stoop to. the paul harvey truck ad was another good example. God wants u to buy a Ram truck. ya right.

Who did that crap?    that's the kind of garbage that makes me yell at my tv.

WT#?

Like the NFL?  Disingenuous b.s.  Even many of the companies set up by vets for current military are parasitic someitmes.   There are a few I give a pass to, but for the most part I can't stand when they play the patriotism card when selling a product and I can't stand when they show pictures of military members in commercials.       

The voices get angry and the blood pressure is up and I don't even know what product or commercial you're talking about, I guess I should contain myself.

When is CBS going to put any restriction on who can start a thread?  I guess I should take this the CBS board but I don't want to move the mouse to find it.    Mondays are like Cleary.

the same people did both, bob. God was selling Dodge trucks, the soldiers were selling Jeeps.

and they won't restrict thread creation for ages, if ever. they seem to think that now that links in spam posts aren't actually clickable, their work is done. so what if it doesn't stop the spammers, but DOES screw all the real users.

Son of a beep.

I've been trying to tell myself to ignore them but now i have to watch a commercial and may even end up sending an email about how much I don't dig their ad in the hopes the message will get past the intern that screens them.

I read some of their responses on other board.    I can't imagine what the moderators and programmers think they're accomplishing or hope to accomplish with some of their changes.    Restricting who can start a thread or make a link would probably do far more good than bad for the message boards.  

Almost no one is going to copy and paste one of my favorite Kelly's heroes clips, the CBS community is missing out, it's a shame.

Dustin Byfuglien will miss a third consecutive game on Tuesday.

Byfuglien wasn't on the ice with the Jets for Monday's
practice. Winnipeg hasn't offered many specifics regarding Byfuglien's injury,
although they did say that he sustained it off the ice. Jets coach Claude Noel
also said that he doesn't anticipate Byfuglien missing weeks over this ailment.

I want specifics!  WT? did he do?

I had the same feeling Buhdat.   Might have been a 3rd degree burn from a buffet line accident too.     That trade has really paid dividends for the Jets, I'm sure the compressed schedule will be easy on him too.

Not a good Dayton be a ref. Saw a little bit of the Canes/Leafs and one ref had to leave to get sticked up after getting hit in the face with a puck. Now a ref in the Star/Avalanche game got hit in the head ad dropped like his got shot.

When cooking chicken at 450 for 20 min, then 325 for an hour...IT IS IMPORTANT TO REDUCE THE HEAT.  Just a heads-up from my smoke filled ditch.  How do I disable the ditch-alarm?

haha red. dammit, 3 reds here is confusing. i have no problem calling one of u 69, but hessian is too much typing.

my home has hypersensitive smoke detectors. i went so far as to put a switch on that circuit. i coulda just kept turning off the circuit breaker, but they aren't intended to be used as switches and don't hold up to that well. now it's a case of turning the entire circuit off, and popping out the battery in the kitchen detector. otherwise, the act of boiling water will set it off. then, it's just a matter of remembering to turn it back on and pop the battery compartment closed again. to help with that, i used an illuminated switch to toggle the circuit, and it's in a room that's rarely lit, so after dark, it's easy to notice if the circuit's still off.

If you can control the temperature of the heat you're applying to the meat, you're not in a ditch and I have no useful advice other than use a rock or hammer.

NHLPA and league entered a zebra hunting provision in CBA.    IT's gotta hurt and it's got to motivate them to fix some of the bad phantom calls now that Holmstrom is retired.
