The "You people nominate everything" Edition of Post of the Week, February 21, 2007


GreenBeans

Recommended Posts

I need to put three things out there from the get go:

1. As the title says, jeeze-louise you people nominated everything this week. My goodness did I ever earn my imaginary paycheck this week.

2.

A great poster here, GreenBeans, tabulates the "POTW Nom's" and posts a thread each Wednesday.

Thanks G, I appreciate the sentiment. I'm hoping that the job slows down some so I can actually post here more often again. Working for a living sucks. Anyhow, you 'da man, Gainzo!

You know what, you're right GM - I should have been a little more considerate.

Anyway, there are a lot of great posts this week - check'em out, there is some funny stuff here this week:

Topic - Happy Effing Valentine's Day

Originally Posted by Garb

A woman, who is worthy of your love, like, whatever, just wishes for something that says to her "I think you are special." That something "special" can be anything. Does she like sappy love stories? Go rent The Notebook. Make HER dinner. Take her skating and kiss her under the stars. Whatever it is that SHE would appreciate. And, if she's worth her salt, she'll do the same for you.

Yo V - don't be raining on the flower parade. I like 'em. I don't care that they only last three days. Those three days make me smile. They brighten the kitchen. They smell good. Not saying that I need 'em, but I do like 'em.

(Editor's note: My, my, my, my, my - Garb is just fantastic. Sexy as all AND so together, too. It's a lucky man who gets to send this young lady some flowers...)

Correct.

Lawyer: And how would you describe him after the surgery?

Tom Brady: He was still fat.

Lawyer: Nothing more your honor.

The offense was not subpar because of Chad. They had no running game. Fix that and you are in good shape.

All I am saying is they have bigger problems than Chad. Fix them all and then we will talk.

The other half of the time you're on a treadmill & JFBM is in front of it with a Ring-Ding on the end of a fishing rod. I'm just sayin'.

(Editor's note: Sperm really didn't need to go here, but since he has - anyone have Ring-Ding?)

[Max] 8:58 pm: From CrazyCarl40: I have a question for the chat, which is fitting since they are Draft Daddy, experts of all things Daddies and Drafts. My question is this: Who fathered Anna Nicole Smith

[stormshadow19] 8:58 pm: Oh lord

[R44] 8:59 pm: Could be a former co-founder of JN, who used to live in upstate New York?

[Max] 8:59 pm: OH MAN R44 just won Post Of The Week!!!

[Max] 8:59 pm: Classic.

(The Nomination - "bit, your bump just reminded me to get this potw nom in the thread so Beans could find it next week." - Jetcane - THANK YOU, JC. :))

(Editor's note: R44 is, has been, and will always be the MAN. Great response - laugh out loud funny!)

If not , that is good for the Jets as it means Clemens will have beat out a good QB and we should all support him.

Each year we hear of all the crap QB's that are better than Chad by our posters here (Carr, Eli, Harrington, Lohsman, Vick)to name a few and each year a healthy Chad has his team in the play-offs while the teams with those other QB's are questioning whether to go in another direction.

I'm all for that "SB capable winning QB" that apparently grows on trees replacing Chad but until I see him in green I'll take my shot at actually being in the post season everytime #10 is relatively healthy.

We all seem to agree that Mangini is a smart HC so I trust he will make the switch when a reason is shown to do so other than that Clemens was drafted in the 2nd rd.

(Editor's note: Great post Shelter - I routing for Chad, too, even if it ends up being fruitless.)

I'd rather stick with Chad's 9-7 and first round exit every year instead. That way, five years from now when Chad retires and we have to scramble to find a QB, we can look back with fond memories at 2007, the year we won 9 games instead of 8.

(Editor's note: And here is the opposite view from Shelter's above - also compelling. I guess we'll find out in August, huh?)

(Editor's note: There is no debating this - Shawn is 100% correct. Cubs and Sox fans know a choke when the see it (over and over and over again)...)

Congratulations to SoFlaJets for the win this week. And winning this week was a real feat - there were so many great posts to choose from. So, SoFla, you finally popped your cherry after all these posts. Wear the GreenMachine made badge with pride:

The Assist of the Week goes to joewilly again - he was in the mix and the middle of at least half of the POTW nominated posts this week. Thanks joey. ;)

POTW is like the oscars they don't give you the award based on your 'taxi driver' posts or your 'goodfellas' posts but eventually with enough begging beans'll give you one for your 'the departed' post as more of a life time achievement thing.

Potw nom

Really isn't worthy, I just wanted to give Beans the chance to comment on it next week!!!

Thanks like usual, but GreenBeans how long does this take you to do every week? I'm just curious.

A pretty good amount of time this week, Manny. About 3 hours when it's all said and done, probably.

Ahhhhh...I'm glad this one is nominated for next week. :)

HOLY $HIT I FRIGGIN WON ONE!!!!!

(Beans-did the check get there yet?)

No check and none needed - great job, SoFla! ;)

Finally SoFla, well done. I'll PM you the password to the POTW lounge.

As usual, good job Beans!!

Thanks!
