Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
As you admit to never having watched the show, or even commercials for the show, then it would seem your credibility in arguing against it is severely diminished. You are just coming across as an unreasonably prejudiced blowhard. Which is normally Greg's job.
Brooke White probably should be classified as 'cute' rather than 'hot'. Wrong adjective there. To say she's ugly is bull - as Fanatic said, she would not be the recipient of a boot out of bed.
I would not watch the show in a million years if my wife didn't subject me to it, but as Greg said it is a talent contest which, like it or not, has a large market and features decent performers. In general, I hate reality TV.
So in conclusion, we should take Matt Ryan at 8 if he's still there.

Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
Our D has been our bread and butter for years. It would be foolish not to address the major short comings on that side of the ball. Brohm would most likely be there in the 2nd. CMac and a top CB in the draft with Reed and Samauri Rolle as saftey. That to me seals it up nicely. Then we would need a WR. I dont see where this is a bad plan and would keep our D up to speed. Whatcha think?

What I DO mind is how ever-present it seems to be -- I hate turning on some sports radio program and the first thing they talk about is American Idol (at length). I don't mind it being on since I don't have to watch it, but do I have to be ambushed by it in venues in which I don't want or expect to hear about it? I guess the answer to that question is yes.

Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
For Idol and shows of that ilk it's certainly been the case in a few of the UK series that the person who "needs" to win it to launch their career usually wins it, so the most musically talented one will often make the final but ultimately lose out. Happened in the most recent series of the X-Factor (another of Cowell's creations) where a talented opera style singer lost out to a 20 something scottish kid who was shit but popular with the teenage girls.
On Woodson, he's fallen off the face of the draft boards because his technique isn't good enough. He's got some horrible inconsistencies in his accuracy and whilst he looks after the ball he misses on so many throws that he really should be making.

Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
In the beginning, god created...., I mean I was forced to watch a few minutes a few years ago, so that is what I'm basing my opinion on... but as someone else here said, you cannot escape it! Every where people discuss it as if it were pertinent, had some hidden redeeming quality! It is THE most irrelevant topic in, at least my world, and I resent having it thrust upon me!... By the way, why are youse guys hijacking the thread and trying to discuss football!

Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
Even though I detest reality (and "talent" shows), there is one good thing to say about American Idol: Carrie Underwood.
In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Re: OT/Site going to the dogs!
I mean really, What on network tv right now is at all intelligent? The only shows I can think of are Lost and The Office (which may have jumped the shark already, we will see).
Other than that, Network TV sucks and I don't watch it.
Brooke White probably should be classified as 'cute' rather than 'hot'. Wrong adjective there. To say she's ugly is bull - as Fanatic said, she would not be the recipient of a boot out of bed.
And oh by the way, if you want hot chicks on reality shows, you need to check out Julianne Hough on Dancing with the Stars. My wife watches the show. I play poker. Till Julianne is on. When she's on, I'm pretty much 100% focused on the screen. That girl is SMOKIN' hot!!!
