    Yep, but he's aging. Always good to be prepared I guess...

    That's what I originally thought....but they did have some major problems at that position last year. A few too many bad snaps....but still, it seems like a waste to draft someone that just is a longsnapper. Probably could have signed that guy in free agency. Oh well.
  5. Hey everyone. I've got loads to do. Still debating whether I should rent or buy R&H. I've got a project where I have to compare two different means of entertainment. I chose Still Havent Found (fav song btw) and Tell Tale Heart (book). Ive got lots of albums to hear now. I carelessly bought albums figuring I would like a lot of certain songs. Well, I was wrong:
    •Thriller
    •The Essential Toto
    •CCR 20 hits
    •Saturday nights and Sunday mornings
    •Exile on mainstream

    Oh and Pop is almost appreciated. Just have to hear Angels, Velvet Dress and Miami again. Miami, is well, different...

    And who can hate the cartoon before Last Night on Earth from PopMart! Its so trippy!
  6. I'd love to stay and chat, but I've been here for too long. Gotta jump out for a bit. Later!

    Buy Rattle and Hum. No second question about it. Was that the Thriller25 or the original release?

    Here's some good advice: don't buy a new classic or new nano. Go for the older ones. How bad has it gotten now?

    Hasn't spread up or down much, but it's all the way to the far right side of the screen, pretty solid line now. I was looking at getting a new classic. Why should I avoid them?

    - You can't reduce the volume to 0 (weird, but true)
    - It scratches really easily on the front (due to the matte gloss)
    - Songs bigger than 20MB don't want to start for about two minutes
    - Regularly getting syncing errors in iTunes
    - No third-party components work with it unless they're Apple (AV cables!)
    - Constantly loses files which iTunes shows are there
    - A totally, terribly slow and useless interface
    - Terrible sound even with an EQ setting and songs re-encoded to lossless
    - Three updates to do nothing and make it 340 times as bad
    - Slideshows no longer work as they should
    - Album art disappears regularly
    - Skips and distorts heavily
    - Wants to format each time in Windows as a Mas Storage Device
    - Hard drive keeps spinning well after iPod is turned off and locked
    - Slow and unresponsive on everything
    - A screen saver which is completely useless (shows 12 hour time as 24 hours)
    - Very fragile screen (sort of a glassy material)
    - Takes ages to connect and disconnect from USB power
    - If you scroll to the end of a video it jumps to the beginning
    - Poor signal-to-noise ratio (when it's silent, you can hear it spnning)


    That's just a quick rundown of the current problems.

    The touch is fine...the classic just seems like the poor cousin.
