In a US court - he is allowed to change his plea from not guilty to guilty at any court appearance. If his lawyers work out a plea bargain deal with the prosecutors, he might change his plea to guilty & face any combination of fines, counseling, & community service. He's hired good (expensive)...

Some of us had the pleasure (or misfortune) of watching Gary Albert Sr fly above our heroes & light up the scoreboard while he was dominating our clubs for 14 years. We thought he was one of the greatest players we had ever seen - as prolific a scorer as any that played the game. A once (or...

The Hawks are f***ers why? Because they have been successful? As a kid I often stood in the outer at Glenferry for at least half of a reserves game & all of the main event - in the cold & the wet - supporting a club that had won a solitary premiership - well before my time - until 1970. But...

I moved to Texas in '90. Honestly, I now have more familiarity with US sport than with the AFL - at least as it exists in 2020 (pre-Covid). But I've never understood the enigma that is Eddie! I can't imagine a current NFL Owner or President or Cheer Squad member or Mascot being allowed to appear...

Moving forward, the XFL will have problems retaining any QBs that show anything resembling a high level of skill at that position! There are 32 starting QB jobs in the NFL. There are 32 backup QB jobs in the NFL. Most NFL teams have a 3rd QB on their rosters - albeit a few of these are on their...

While the suburbs are nice...the city of Detroit is America’s litter box & it’s been begging to be burnt it to the ground for a long time! Why would you insult Detroit by comparing it to Geelong?

Thaihawk - Friend to so many! Missed by more! Adios Amigo

The D was just not quite good enough to stop Gurley in Week 5. But so far, the rest of the NFL has a similar problem! Plus the Seahawks missing some key pieces on that side of the ball didn’t help the task at hand. I read Earl Thomas got confused last weekend - he thought flashing his index...

I got two surprises when I turned on the TV Sunday night: Dr. Who has become a woman & the Rams are 5 - 0. I’m not certain I can handle it!

Ouch! Hawthorn down to ⅗ths of **** all that’s tradeable. I was hoping the Hawks had at least ⅞ths of **** all. Back in 19th century America, black fellows were only ⅗ths of a person. I tuned into the NFL recently & it looks like those guys have done OK. Perhaps the Hawks can turn their ⅗ths...

I know it’s sexist, but I’m almost certain all Victoria’s Secret models are ‘she’s’ & not “he’s”. Try not to be too disappointed when an attractive female strolls thru your font door! Perhaps you two can discuss the latest trends in moisturizing while the rest of us watch the Hawks upset the Tigers!

That is great!! Hope for the aged! Now if I could only overcome a massive distance to Melbourne. Thanks for making me feel less ancient, if only for a few minutes!

I'm a long way from Melbourne, but it wouldn't matter. I'm almost 60 & walking is hard enough, much less skating.

I never played organized hockey when I was a kid. I played in a rec league when I was in my late 20s. Rules dictated no slap shots & no body checks - the oldest players must have been in their early 50s - main goal was no blood, no ambulances, no broken hips. That freaking piece of rubber could...

Slap shots to the nadder region hurt more than snap shots do! At pro level - Think Dennis Lilly full front on direct hit. Only a puck is harder than a cricket ball!

Hudson could probably still take 8 marks & kick 5 goals on a good day. Not sure Hawks have any long sleeved jumpers left & Peter doesn't seem to currently possess a body type that would be flattered by the tight spandex-like guernsey of today's game.

Wasn't a good AFL prospect. Too slow! Couldn't kick long. Did anyone mention slow? We were blessed by his legendary presence! If the media & other footy know-it-alls could start talking ASAP about how lame Sam's coaching pedigree is & that he's not fit to be in charge at the AFL level - he...

Will there be a victory parade? If there is, will there be balloons & lollies? I like balloons & lollies! Will the bookies take care of my losing 22 year old bets? I want satisfaction!! BTW, I also like a good South Australian whine & this thread is providing more than a little of that.

I'm not Claire Voyant but I dated her sister when I was in school. BTW - you aren't clairvoyant or a psychic just because you win lotto. Those titles come when you win lotto the second or third time! :)

Hawks supporters have had to learn to pace themselves to insure they've got something left in the tank for all those games in September ;)

i agree with that. I'm good. You're good. I didn't think you were having a go at me as much as I thought you misunderstood my intentions. Thought you felt I might be here looking to poke the bear.

Chill a bit! I'm not defending Burgoyne any more than I am attacking Dangerfield! Personally, I think Selwood would be a deserving Brownlow medalist & if Dangerfield was wiped out it would probably improve Selwood's chances. But I'm not hoping PD gets a week off because I really don't care. In...

You are correct - Hawks got a good win. Congrats to them. So I suppose you feel I should stay on Hawks board and hyperventilate while reading the same things over and over for nine days until the Tigers & Hawks square off? I didn't post here to be an ass about this. I'm not hoping PD gets done...

Often it seems, any player with a decent chance to win the Brownlow walks if there's any chance the MRP can look the other way. No blood! No foul! Not only does PD not have a thing to worry about, he'll probably get a letter from Kreuzer's mum apologizing that Matthew's concussion made...

In Friday night's game Sicily had a legitimate complaint with the field umpire. I watched the replay & the umpire clearly yells free kick Sydney, not free kick Franklin! There were at least 3 Swans around the spot where Franklin was awarded the free kick. Sicily is holding the ball asking who it...

It was a long time ago but most of my recollections of Don Scott involve blood running down his head or face. But this has been a fantastic year for McEvoy. And tonight was his best of the year (so far)

Don't be coy. It was closer to 6 when you consider we had to bottom out before the rebuild could begin.

Calm down a bit or there'll be a couple of big fellas at your front door in a bit. The one named Dear probably just wants you to watch a DVD of the '91 Grand Final, but the other one named Scott might be there to beat the living crap out of you with his purse simply because he disagrees with you...

Sort of where I'm coming from. I didn't say he did not give a good effort on the field. I was suggesting he was always one wild hair from doing something crazy - like leaving. To me, his commitment to Spida often seemed greater than his commitment to any club. IMO - not a Hawks legend by any...

Welcome I'm a Houston resident since 1990 Astros. (Forever - since the 60s before the tequila sunrise jerseys - my Dad's favorite sport and favorite team) Broncos/Saints. (grew up in Louisiana but lived in Denver for 11 years) Devils. (early 80s season ticket holder when they were the original...
