  1. #1 Alabama - Arguably the best team in the country (best defense) #2 Oregon - Arguably the best team in the country (best offense) #3 Florida State - Unbeaten National Champions #4 Ohio State - What they overcame was unbelievable. Urban Meyer, IMHO is the coach of the year.
  2. Wall was on fire last night. The Wizards were hot with the three's, the Heat - not so much.
  3. Another OT loss for my Caps and 20 seconds to go to a shootout.
  4. Did they get spanked last night or what.......disheartening.
  5. I went to a Penguins Game in Pittsburgh, they were playing the Hurricanes and I wore my Capitals jersey. They all looked at me like I was crazy, especially when I yelled "O" during the national anthem. Big Caps fan but is it ever going to be their year? I will root for any team playing the Penguins Favorite player of all time............definitely Bob Probert!
  6. I love it. Go Wizards!
  7. Update on Carson Palmer...ESPN saying possible torn ACL.
  8. Wow Carson Palmer carted off the field with a knee injury, and he just signed a three year extension this week.
  9. I was a little worried when they lost Trevor but they seem to be ok without him.
  10. My Wizards are doing well and I like it!
  11. I am hearing good things about that T56, but the six speed trannys are so long and heavy, I think I am leaning 5 speed. I really like the Richmond Super Street but $4,000.00 is big paper. Chevy Performance also has a Tremec version but it is also just as expensive. Plus I would need to add a bellhousing, clutch, pressure plate and bearing, and swap out my flexplate with a flywheel. Since it is not originally a manual shift car, I will need to get a pedal assembly, take out the column shift, change the dash housing (because I will need one for a manual shift without the indicator) and cut a hole in the floor and redo the driveshaft. I think I am really more worried about all the work more than the money, but I think it would make me happy in the end.
  12. I thinking about pulling the Turbo 350 out of my Nova and putting in a 5 or 6 speed manual Tremec tranny. It would make my Nova the way I always wanted it to be, but this conversion is going to be crazy expensive. I have the money but I know that every dime I put into it now is money that I will never get back. Every cool muscle car I looked at in OC last weekend, the first thing I looked for is a clutch pedal. I am so torn on this, my heart says yes but my head is saying "keep your money in the bank." My tranny shifts so good with that B&M kit, I just purchased a new flexplate with the motor swap. I have a nice Hughes converter. I do hate turning 3000 RPM at 60 MPH with my .370 gears, so the overdirve would be nice.
  13. I have a 1971 Nova. It is a Lime Green (SS Clone) with a black vinyl top, Jade interior, with the Magnum 500 style Chevy Rally wheels. Pretty much everything has been replaced with new replica parts. It is set up for racing with adjustable coilovers in the front, frame connectors, Ford nine inch rear with .370 gears and Cal Tracs bars. I just dropped a new Blueprint engines 396 small block Chevy roller cam motor in it dynoed at 494 HP and 521 Torque, 350 Turbo Trans. I wish I could download photos. Mods have sent me instructions, but I am still too computer challenged to figure it out.
  14. It was a miserable rainy Saturday in OC for the Endless Summer Car Cruise weekend. However, they did not disappoint today......they tore up the asphalt on Coastal Highway! I can't wait until that third weekend in May to go down and do it again. I guess it is time to put the fuel stabilizer in my Nova for its long winter nap.
  15. Confirmed, Alex Mack has a broken fibula.
  16. Looks like the Steelers got beat up last night. I read that Timmons broke Ike Taylor's arm, ILB Ryan Shazier suffered a knee sprain, and OLB Jarvis Jones will need wrist surgery.
  17. Wow, arrested with 2 counts of aggravated assault and an 18 month old baby was involved, Jonathon Dwyer needs to be out. Hardy still was not cut and he threw the woman on assault rifles and told her he was going to kill her and was found guilty by a judge, only placed on the exempt list and is still getting paid. Unbelievable! The 49ers are still sticking with MacDonald while the investigation is being conducted, but to hit a pregnant woman sounds pretty bad, but I believe he has not been officially charged yet.
  18. Knowshon Moreno may be a big injury for the Dolphins.
  19. Wow the Falcons must be beating up the Bengals........Kevin Zeitler (guard) calf, Brandon Thompson (DT) knee, Alex Smith (TE) biceps, are all out injured in the second quarter and out. Along with AJ Green, the Bengals may win but it may be a costly win.
  20. He is done, it was bad. Kirk Cousins comes in and already gets them to 21-0, with the help of their beast - Alf red Morris. I always believed he was the better pocket passer and gave them the best chance to win in the NFL.
  21. AJ Green with the big toe injury. How come these key always guys go down after we play them. Just think, if AJ Green was out, we could be 2-0.
  22. Planet of the Apes (original) is on TCM tonight. Linda Harrison as "Nova" made me all tingly inside when I was a boy
  23. I have never smoked marihuana in my life, but I agree with your post. Last weekend a drunk driver took out a power line pole and our whole community was without power for over 8 hours. I am just glad it was a pole and not an innocent person on the roadway.
  24. After the Brazil spanking, Troy Polamalu tweets, "Looks like we'll still be the only ones with 6 world futbol championships." I actually thought that was kinda funny. Robin van Persie has a stomach virus, DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Dutch!
  25. Agreed, we need to play better against Portugal because if we have to rely on beating Germany to advance we will be in trouble.
