  1. bump I need your help!
  2. me
  3. Mostly a scoring based league, about 75% touchdowns etc. and 25% yardage bonuses. I have the number one pick in a twelve team league. I do not pick again until 24 and 25. Manning, Tomlinson, Alexander, or Priest Holmes? Someone please help me!!!!! Others, please ask your fantasy football questions here.....
  4. you forgot the scions
  5. this thing is no further evolved than my 99 Prizm.
  6. thanks for the article.
  7. And my neighbor, who works for Dodge corporation himself, says the 300's and Magnums all suck in snow, regardless of the hype. Tomato, tomato. I'm not putting down 30 grand on the CHANCE any of that electro garbage works. I already tried that on my Tbird, the whole trac control thing. Sure the newer systems are improved a lot. But ESP does not solve the weight distribution issue. Too many of the RWD cars I've had have had issues in winter. Stories I hear from others are no different. I'm not putting faith in a long wheelbase, nose heavy, rear wheel drive car to be trustworthy in a MN winter. I love shitties in the snow as much as anyone, but I don't want what else comes with it. brew, why don't you tell us if you're riding your stock all seasons in winter........
  8. the funny thing is that the automotive press were the ones who endlessly harped the greatness of Accords and Camrys and made them out to the be ultimate driving solution not less than 10 years ago. The press just goes in cycles, looking for the next flavor of the month to write about. Its like the fashion industry. Hey, are jeans that don't even come half way up a girls' hip in fahsion right now? Sure, but what will be in fashion in 3 years?
  9. Well, most folks in the USA don't want the hassle of seasonal tire changes, which is why all season tires are so popular. And so, folks here just want to drive what they own, without changing their tires. Myself, I would love to have winter tire packages for all my vehicles, but my budget doesn't allow it. FWD with all seasons is popular because its easy and versatile.
  10. hey! what the hell happened to all the blowing chunks icons? dammit, there went the punchline. SEBRING WHAT AN UGLY ASS CAR
  11. why waste time examining it. the car is ASS FRICKING UGLY. not only is chrysler the new cheap plastic king, they apparently are the king of ugly cars now too. I can refrain from convulsions having an Aztek in my garage every day but I see this new Sebring and.........
  12. I just realized i hadn't posted anything yet. Sorry about that and sorry I can't do that tonight. NEED SLEEP BAD. Been staying up too late on C/G and GMI etc. The one year AZTEK ANALVERSARY is the 28th.
  13. here's my guess. You can even expand your list to ten topics if you like. -WHY IS THERE NO CAMARO -WHY FWD SUCKS -MONTHLY SALES POSTS -TOYOTA SUCKS FORUM -HOW GM IS BETTER THAN FORD (bonus) -LUTZ, KEEP HIS ASS OR KICK HIS ASS OUT not presenting these in a mean spirited way, I'm just trying to list what most recurring topics have been, seemingly. I would love your take. This is for fun. Good night, gotta get sleep tonight. Can't wait to see all of your lists in the morning.
  14. hey ted, does that 500 have a big trunk?
  15. what an ass ugly car
  16. "The only huge advantage RWD has (imo) is the ability to do donuts and such" well, that was the whole 'smoky burnouts' thing I've been harping about. Or as they used to say in high school, 'whipping shitties'. Oh sure, that's fun when you're like 17, but when you are older and making big car payments and using your car as TRANSPORTATION, 'whipping shitties' and 'smoky burnouts' tends to be low priority and rather juvenile IMHO. I just don't see a car company building a foundation for the long haul based upon whether they make it a priority for a new RWD pony car that folks can spend time whipping shitties with. As a niche supplemental product, sure. For as many folks out there who think RWD is neutral (which I do feel is true, BTW), the realtive tail happiness of RWD cars is another strike against them with the fickle and unskilled general public.
  17. well, my stinkin 5 year college degree is making me low-mid 50s a year, and still needing to pay part of my own benes. Since my wife works, we pay extra into her plan. Neither of us could get all of our own medical taken care of. I think we choke up like 3-400 a month (guess) to have a family plan coverage that has low deductibles but also has copays. I picked the wrong profession though, so I have no one to bitch at but myself. In fact, cnn had an article last week for the 5 'big jobs' that don't pay shit or something like that....I'm one of them. I make out good. But I am typically about 10-20 grand now behind my college contemporaries in other majors. Currently one buddy is going for his MBA and likely will double me in pay someday soon. An ex HS classmate who got a doctorate and teaches at a U, married another like person and now their two doctorates and teaching jobs have them riding the gravy train. If my wife quit her job, we'd have to sell our house which is reasonably close to the core area where all the jobs are around here (if 25 miles or 30 miles is close) and move to the sticks and I'd be driving 60 miles one way to work, but with gas that won't work either. We couldn't make a go renting a townhouse around here on my pay alone, because the housing market is so out of whack. Anyways, that might explain why I drive an Aztek and an over and done Diamante (certainly never are these FIRST choices) and my old college buddies are driving Passats, Pilots, Odysseys, Volvos..... Regardless of any of that, it still is the case that with NWA, they may not be able to go on unless there is adjustments made to the mechanics' compansation in a larger than desired way. The monster is too big and now the trouble begins.
  18. this might be the new ride for college profs who can no longer buy troopers and don't want the snobbery of a Land ROver
  19. damn. then who's making the 60-70k?
  20. well, i do agree with you there, he ought to have more coming to him, but i would ask where/plant does he work. 30 years i'd guess he'd be in line for more. Was that 30 CONTINUOUS years? I would also ask for details of his health plan/copayments etc.
  21. union negotiations and people's well being/jobs is the not the proper way to wage a class warfare. Mainly because its not effective. They are gonna scheme to continue to get their huge chunk of pie, regardless if y'all 'revolt' to get an extra 50 cents an hour. In other words, regardless of how a petty little collective bargaining negotiations plays out in one instance such as this, its not going to make any dent in how wily exec types sway the forces to get their huge cut. They think on another level, and are driven by greed and shiftiness. They are expert at staying on top, and will use every resource they can to stay there. They are so internally driven to get what they want, they will not let anything stop them to get their cut. Not all of them, just enough of them. Do y'all remember the dot-com crash? The folks with the old money thought it was fine and cute to let all the day traders and online investors and 'tech stocks' go rabid and let the wanna be's make all sorts of money. Then, it got to a certain point and the old money folks said, 'ok, that's enough' and they threw the gauntlet down on the stock market. SO MANY people lost their asses when they thought they made a fortune. Another example of the MAN finding ways to stop you before it gets too far. Then they sip on their liquor, have a cigar and chuckle. Its so misguided to lose focus on the core issues and turn it into a class war. Its unproductive, and lacks quiet pride. Approaching it from that bent isn't going to get you anywhere. I don't recall in history ever, when winning concessions for the union has seriously 'taken down the MAN' in a hard core way. Its not right as humans to use a collective group of people's jobs as pawns in some sort of 'righteous battle' because of some pent up anger and such. It is fine to do it for the good of the workers. But to turn it into a personal battle and class warfare, is simply counter productive because the workers bees lose all the time. I would say don't let emotion and 'wanting to down the MAN' cloud your ability to solve the real issues here.
  22. proof that GM continues to blow snot up everyone's arse with all this 'we get interiors now' thing. Still the same old GM, in some ways.
  23. only posting this one for the what its worth department. startribune
  24. STRYPER just put out a new album my wife loves contemporary Christian pop type music, but i have to force myself to keep from telling her how cheesy most of it I think is.
