Great video... I teared up.

Feel good story of the day:

Tanner Brownlee's father was killed in the line of duty. He raised money to purchase his dad's old squad car, but a local rancher outbid him at the auction. That same rancher then immediately took the keys and handed them to Tanner

Yeah but you guys have a "team." Your backup players are all american players. It kind of reminds me of hockey. You have different lines you put in but they are all american pro's.

We have some key guys injured....lost Edelman (broken foot) should be back for playoffs, Lewis (out for season) and our offensive line is depleted. We play Bills tonight. One thing for sure.....Rex Ryan will be Blitzing the F out of us tonight. Should be an interesting game.

the thing about Belichick is that he always drafts guys who are versatile players. He likes guys that can play multiple position and have no issue doing so and he and kraft will not overpay. If a player wants to be a prima donna, only wants to play one position, demands a large long term contract...forget about it, not gonna happen here in New England. We take guys off the "rubbish heap" many times....because those are the types that come in, do what they are told, don't demand big money and want to win. I can't tell you how many great players we let go over the years. Prime example is Darell Revis....he wanted to stay with the patriots, he loved bellichick but he wanted the big money. So what does belichick do? Belichick says see ya later and replaces Revis ass with of all people a 2nd yr player Malcom Butler lol. Butler is flourishing. Sure, Revis got his money by signing with the Jets....but the jets are what....5-5 not going to make playoffs, while the pats are 9-0 and looking likely to head back to another SB appearance.

Its crazy....what some teams are willing to pay just one guy. Owners being bamboozled into thinking yeah lets go get this guy for a 5 year/60 million dollar contract thinking that one player is going to take them to the promise land. Reality hits those owners once the ink dries only to see that player get a season ending injury or just basically watch that player become a bust because that player has no heart and his contract was guaranteed money.

Oh well thats my rant for the day.

Don't worry about your rants... You are 100% correct. Jimmy Johnson did the same thing with his team. Of course, he recruited some of the best players but EVERYONE was a great player. I understand exactly what you are saying. I don't mean to kick the cowboys when they are down but I am not impressed when a team is dependent on 1 or 2 stars.

Not surprised that the markets turned red. A lot is riding on the Federal Reserver despite what the "anal"ysts say on CNBC.

So with a December interest rate liftoff pretty much priced in as a virtual certainty by many on Wall Street (although the probability stands at "only" 67% - up from less than 50% just a month ago) I was intrigued by this study done by the New York Fed staff on the impact of interest rate hikes on auto production and sales.

Certainly worth reading and considering in light of our common interest on how car sales impact the SiriusXM subscription model.
