Don't know what's wrong with him,but heres a cut from Hobson.

Adams says not to worry
At 33 and off a stretch of three run-stopping Pro Bowls in six seasons, Adams has some people nervous because he’s only working on the side with strength coaches Chip Morton and Ray Oliver and no one will say what his injury is.

But the guys he’s going to play with aren’t worried.

“Sam came out in what? 1994? That’s when I got out of high school,” said fellow tackle John Thornton. “He’ll be there when we get ready. He’s been through it all before. He’s sitting in there in the meetings with us, and, I’ll tell you, he’s excited.”

The locker room can’t but help feel Adams’s magnetic big-time presence. Here’s a guy that was the eighth pick in the draft, has been the heart of a Super Bowl championship defense, and jolted Pro Bowl linebacker Takeo Spikes when he left Buffalo this past offseason.

“You want to see where I am?” Adams asked a reporter inquiring about his status. “Line up across from me and you’ll see.”

[b]He has looked explosive bouncing around Morton and Oliver like ping pong balls and head coach Marvin Lewis says Adams is going to be ready for the July 29 start of training camp.[/b]

“This,” Robinson said, “isn’t his first rodeo.”


Adams
Adams smiles when he hears the other linemen talk about how the run defense is routinely criticized. Clearly, he likes the challenge of doing for this defense and linebackers what he did in Buffalo the past three seasons.

“We’ll see," he said.

[quote name='TeeBengal' post='283139' date='Jun 17 2006, 03:43 PM']Guys I got to tell ya the man is something else. The autograph session was 20 minutes long. Guess who was the LAST person off of the field...you got it Marvin. He stayed until EVERYONE got their autograph. Over 90 degrees and he was making his way ALL around PBS signing away. WELL past the 20 minutes was over. My daughter was THRILLED with all of the autographs! It was AWESOME! B)
autographs she got: JT, McNeil, Domata Pako, TJ, Askew, adn Marvin Lewis[/quote]

Tee;

Before the 2004 season, when ticket packages went on sale to the public, I went to PBS to get tix for the MNF game v. Denver. We were in line for almost 6 hours, in June, in 90 degree heat and oppresive humidity.

I estimated about 1500 people in the line...

And Marvin came out around 3:00 (we got there 11:00). Came to the head of the line, spoke a couple quick words with the fan, shook his hand, and thanked the fan for being a Bengals fan and supporting our home field advantage. Then he went to the next guy. And the next. He shook EVERY PERSON's hand that was in that line. I got to meet him and had my friend take a quick pic of us with my cameraphone.

Then, he said "It's hot out here" to the guy behind us. 15 minutes after he got finished, some PBS workers came out and set up some tubs of ice. They filled them with FREE 20oz sodas and waters for all of the people in line.

I liked Marvin before that day. After, I'm firm that he was reason that Carson didn't turn to Akili, and that we have the success' that we enjoy today.

Yeah they did, I think he did it before a few years ago as a back up if I remember right. Though not sure if ever in a game.

[quote][size=5][b]Trash-talking NFL fans waste no time reveling in Roethlisberger's misfortune[/b][/size]
Thursday, June 15, 2006

By Ray Fittipaldo, pissburgh Post-Gazette

For those who thought Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer displayed a childish attitude in Sports Illustrated a few weeks back when he proclaimed "I hate the stealers," wait until they get a load of what some Bengals fans had to say in the moments after Ben Roethlisberger's motorcycle accident Monday.

As the news and pictures were posted on internet Web sites, some Bengals backers at Bengalszone.com made light of the fact that the stealers' quarterback had sustained severe injuries, with many of them proclaiming that justice had been served. A few Cincinnati fans said in their messages that it served Roethlisberger and the stealers right because former stealers defensive end Kimo von Oelhoffen, they contended, intentionally injured Palmer in an AFC wild-card game at Paul Brown Stadium in January.

"Irony, they cheap shot their way to a Super Bowl, now karma comes in," wrote a poster with the handle Spain.

Another poster with the handle jjakg27 wrote: "What comes around ..."

Cantonbengal posted: "This is what I been waiting to see happen to the stealers they all laughed at us when Carson went down. At least, Carson isn't [stupid] like Ben ... hopefully he might miss some time this season."

The messages were posted in the moments or hours after the accident Monday when the severity of Roethlisberger's condition was unclear.

The ill will toward Roethlisberger and the stealers was not confined to Cincinnati cyberspace. Message boards from around the NFL were filled with tasteless comments about Roethlisberger and the accident. At a Cleveland Browns fan site, TheBrownsBoard.com, one poster dubbed the quarterback "Ben Toothlessberger" and noted that he is now "right at home with all those pissburgh inbreds."

A poster with the handle flugel wondered: "who is wearing a bigger turban today? Bin Laden or Ben Ridin'?" Flugel also noted that "there's something about stealers quarterbacks bouncing off hard surfaces that keeps this rivalry fun."

That was a reference to Terry Bradshaw getting dumped on his head by Cleveland defensive lineman Joe "Turkey" Jones at old Municipal Stadium in 1976.

Fans of the Baltimore Ravens also got into the act. Only moments after the accident, Revo2001 posted: "HAHA" followed by an expletive. A few hours later CRAVNRAVN posted: "Raven baby are now the favs to claim the division!"

So why do some football fans react in such a crazed manner in the wake of a potential tragedy?

Dr. Paul Friday, the director of clinical psychology at UPMC Shady Side, said the posters of these comments are people with psychological problems whose brains never fully developed.

Friday said the human brain does not fully develop until 25 years of age, which, he said, might explain why Roethlisberger, who is 24, decided to ride a motorcycle without a helmet. Friday said the posters are either too young to know better or are people whose brains never completely wired, which can happen due to a number of circumstances, including class and culture.

"The people who are blogging in Cincinnati, they're the ones whose brains never fully develop," Friday said. "They don't perspectivize human tragedy. They don't learn to think effectively. These people are not normal. We're talking about a fringe element. We're dealing with the screaming people who are venting. These are elements that are not representative of their communities. They are representatives of their own minds."

Friday said posters on Internet message boards hide behind their keyboards and write things they would never have the courage to say aloud in public. He said posters who write tasteless messages use football and the rivalries between teams as a way of getting out their aggression in a non-violent manner. It's not necessarily a new phenomenon, just one that is more evident because of the instant communication that is available via the Internet.

"We have a degree of transference on sports figures," Friday said. "It's a way of vicariously going to battle. People can blog and send thoughts, and feel a self-induced empowerment."

The stealers' success also is part of the equation, he said. If the stealers had not won the Super Bowl in February, people would not post such vitriolic messages. The stealers are kings of the mountain, and their players are being transformed from humans into symbols, waiting to be knocked from their high perch.

"We identify with our champions," Friday said. "Maybe 3,000 years ago when we were still throwing rocks at each other, the Davids wanted to hit the Goliaths between the eyes. Every year now, we anoint a new Goliath. And we are the new Goliath after winning the Super Bowl.

"Our heroes are no longer humans. They're symbols. Ben is no longer Mrs. Roethlisberger's son or someone who is coming to dinner. He is someone who represents the wars that take place. And there are no bigger wars than the ones that take place in the 5 1/2 inches between our ears."

That was a bullshit offside call. Although the sending off at the end of the first half was tit for tat.

Whilst I appreciate no-one here will agree with me, liking football (soccer) is like appreciating a pitching duel in baseball. Or a defensive struggle in the NFL.

And if you remember that there is no such thing as parity in football, a draw (tie) is a great result. USA drawing with Italy is like a High School team drawing with the Bengals. You'd appreciate the job they did.

If you think football is low scoring, pretend they give 7 points a goal :)

Whatever.

Soccer sucks ass.

:badger:


Kick the ball around a little, then fuck up and they get it. Then they kick the ball around a little, fuck up and you get it.

Every once in a while someone fucks up and they score.
