I'm going on a ski trip in a few weeks.
I'm not sure what to do.
Snowboarding or skiing.
I've snowboarded before for like 2 days.
I sucked. I fell down all the time, couldn't balance, my average time without falling was like 5 seconds, and I got really really sore.
I don't want that to happen on the ski trip.
I've never tried skiing. And I need something to keep my balance.
But my mom said that skiing won't be good for me because I have really long legs and that i'll break them if I ski.
And I have a fear that i'll go too fast and break something on my body.
Man... I wish I didn't sign up for this. But its too late. >.<
Should I just stick with snowboarding? Even though I'll spend most of the time on my butt? And would it be fun if a lot of other people in my group are skiing? (I'm not really sure the percentage of the people skiing.)

Does anyone know the real story on this guy? Everyone said it was a 'steal' for the Pens get him 20th in draft, because he was highly rated 6 months or so before the draft, but now I'm not so sure.

Thoughts?

He has been cut from the Canadian WJC team at least twice (if not thrice). Makes you wonder if he has the stuff to make it in the NHL.

Also, he is regarded as a 'soft' player. Nothing wrong with that, but the last thing the Pens need is another softie.

I know he's still young, but I'm thinking the Pens maybe should have drafted someone else in the first round.

Does anybody think that the Patriots' regular season was a little too perfect? I mean with the whole cheating scandal thing coming out and then they end up 16-0, not to mention that Brady and Moss set individual records and the offense set a team record. I admit, Brady is alright but look around him...awesome O-Line and running back to back him up. But I think if you put the next five best quarterbacks in the league (especially Manning and Favre), they would do even better with that offense. Also, Moss hadn't had a year close to that since he was in Minnesota, even when he had Jerry Rice opposite of him in Oakland.

would the Raens fire brian Billick? He won a super bowl and the Ravens went 13-3 the year before. They had one bad year and he is let go.

a) give them an answer
b) direct them to the search feature that contains that question 7500 times
c) punch yourself in the face until you bleed/pass out
d) post a sarcastic question about how much people ask us who we think is going to the superbowl.

I choose D

They played in what had to one of the worst divisons in recent NFL history with the other 3 teams going 12-36.

Keep in mind the Jets and Bills both swept the Dolphins for 4 of those 12 wins and the Bills swept the Jets for 2 of those wins which means the rest of the teams won 6 games total outside of the division.

Jets qb - 2nd year Kellen Clemens
Dolphins qb - Cleo Lemon
Bills qb - rookie Trent Edwards

Could it have been any easier?

Well I mean I know why.... but isn't it dead in the water right now. Nobody on television even talks about it now... it's really just a moot point. I mean it's already been established several times what happened... Belichick and Mangini extended eachother the courtesy of having cameramen on the field during the game. Belichick changed his mind in the playoffs because he felt the game was too important and had the Jets camera guy removed. In turn... Mangini got upset because they had an agreement and decided to have the Patriots camera guy removed in the season opener in the Meadowlands. Just so happens though that where the Patriots placed their guy was against league rules and it was not against the rules where the Jets had their's placed even though they are both receiving the same exact information... etc, etc, etc. Everyone knows this is an outdated rule considering the ways around it... correct? I mean... isn't this all established, why is this still an issue to some people?

You can include documentaries or whatever you want.

Some of my favorites are "Field of Dreams", "For the Love of the Game" & "Pride of the Yankees". And for a recent one...I thought "Fever Pitch" was pretty good.

Just a fun question! There are no right or wrong answers.=)

Men or Women?

Simple enough. I see a lot of females that answer questions in here...some smarter than others, and some I have actually asked advice from myself...

So who is more knowledgeable about football? Men or Women?

Opinions please

10+ to best answer.
