The Pats brought that on. It looked as if Irvin was defending a teammate. Too bad they couldn't do some damage to Brady.
-
I couldn't agree more. Makes no sense at all for Wilson to throw with Beast mode so close and so able. Wilson will be returning home to some angry fans, that's for sure. A painful loss for Seahawks fans, but the 12th Man will live on.

I can imagine some guy pulling that toy out at his favorite bar to impress the ladies and end up setting his crotch on fire.

American Real Football- Not just soccer players can catch air and run
mrlasvegas replied to mrlasvegas's topic in Sports Talk
A few really good commercials featuring Richard Sherman and Dez Bryant. I can easily bet everyone has days that these headphones could fix. http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/story/2015-01-11/dez-bryant-richard-sherman-beats-by-dre-von-miller-cowboys-seahawks -
American Real Football- Not just soccer players can catch air and run
mrlasvegas replied to mrlasvegas's topic in Sports Talk
I think everyone was amazed. Seattle likes to hit hard and wear down the opposition. That is their secret to success. Kam taught them that he is on a different athletic level than his opponents. Air Kam definitely rocked their boat. Now on to sending Green Bay packing then its Super Bowl time. -

I think so. Great commercial, btw. But we have to be nice to the European folks who like soccer on this board. While it is something to entertain kids under 10 and the cleaning lady in the US, they take it seriously. AS a wise man once said, there is no accounting for taste. -
I booked a LAX- BKK flight on EVA for $745. Tax and everything. Not bad for March travel.

Some Photos: Soi Cowboy Last Night

They sure do. Makes me want to get back to Thailand soon. -
Rugby, which I have played, is quite different. Rugby players play much closer with enough force to stop. These NFL players are like being run over by a speeding train. If you had to take that level of hits you would want the max level of padding. There are a number of serious injuries that can be permanent and retire NFL players. Lynch is an example of a guy in such peak physical condition that he can take a number of hits and keep on going. A number of NFL players have trouble with memory loss later in life after a career of big hits. It is sad to see an athlete that was bright and got a quality free education struggling to remember the date later in life. So padding and protection will just get better over time.

Its okay. Better luck next year for the Niners. They really played well against Seattle, imo, keeping Wilson on his toes. Seattle just has too good a defense and a patient offense. A great combo. If Lynch retires like he is talking about, Seattle may have difficulty filling his position.

Amazing play by Marshawn Lynch. Think anything close to this could be accomplished in the polka dot ball sport? It would mess up a lot of hairdo's, so probably not. Football at its best!! Go Seahawks http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/marshawn-lynch-shakes-off-illness--sickens-cardinals-with-amazing-run-052504938.html;_ylt=AwrSbhoYXJhU8TQARVFXNyoA

Is this the one near the gay portion of the beach? I was walking by a place similar to it a few weeks ago. Thought it was nice but there were so many creepy acting guys with their boyfriends I couldn't imagine investing there. Especially since I want the kind of place I could let my boss use occasionally.

Brooklyn Diner on Soi BuaKhao - UPDATED Jan. 12, 2015
mrlasvegas replied to Evil Penevil's topic in Restaurants and food
That was a concern. I took it for granted that it was meat. Could be wrong though. -
Brooklyn Diner on Soi BuaKhao - UPDATED Jan. 12, 2015
mrlasvegas replied to Evil Penevil's topic in Restaurants and food
Had the western burger yesterday. Really not good. The meat tasted odd and was hard and dry. Fries were not cooked enough.Mozzarella sticks were good though. -
Skytrain is all I use to get around Bangkok. Hope I get a pole dancing demonstration next ride.

DK Car & Motorbike Rentals(2 New bikes now available)
mrlasvegas replied to PoolHustler's topic in Transport in Thailand
What is the daily rate for the twist and go? Do they require a special license? -
The big boss in Bangkok may be on to something. We are quality tourists. We consume a high quantity of taxable goods i.e cigarettes, alcohol,pharmaceuticals, etc. Unlike the once in a lifetime families that are quickly maxed out, we keep coming and coming. Las Vegas learned a hard lesson years ago that cost many politicians their jobs. Families are a losing tourism market. It was hard to learn and in the temporary conversion under pressure from the local government resorts lost millions. The city lost tens of millions in tax revenue. What was once amusement parks for families are now topless pools and million dollar condos that sell out quickly. Pattaya would be smart to achieve a solid balance. Going all family means serious poverty for Pattaya.

I will agree yours are a bit more entertaining. Here in Las Vegas we do our own version of entertaining videos at the airport that are seen by millions. Other than the pacemaker one, they aren't half bad.

A number of the clients I deal with have ongoing medical conditions. I have investigated a few injuries due to seizure activity. You would be amazed at how resistant to injury the body is. I have seen some pretty serious falls with only minor injuries. The seizure matching your description is of the Grand Mal variety. Very good odds she recovered with quite a headache but few major injuries.

Thanks for the info.

Where is New Plaza located? Seems worth a try.

It really seems to me like a bit too much.If these guys had ANY other Job, people wouldn't care. If these guys worked at Wal-Mart people would not boycott the store.But they have the job of professional athletes so they have to be held to a higher standard? They are not role models.They play real football. And they help me make money for Pattaya at my favorite Las Vegas sports book on Sunday and occasionally Monday.No doubt some type of investigation needs to be done. By the local authorities, not the NFL. Same with Ray Rice. The issue is between Ray Rice, his now wife, and law enforcement. It is none of the media or NFL's business.

When I was married and living in Jakarta my now ex's family has a beach house at Kuta. There are pick up games on that beach in the evening. 12 billion on a "professional sport". Big difference from my explanation of soccer's popularity.Try to keep up.I have never shuffled cards in Vegas. Never taught ESL in Rayong. Did teach in Bangkok. Never for 25k either.

I found the injuries quite entertaining. That so many injuries even exist shows that the sport is in dire need of some new trainers.Some standard weight training could alleviate the majority of that.. And maybe a bit of peripheral vision.
