Tashard Choice Clowning in the Locker Room

[DallasEast]

DallasEast, if it were Bennett instead of Choice, the Nervous Nellies would've been out in full force to bemoan his "immaturity" and lack of professionalism in the locker-room. Hence my comment.

Oh. Gotcha.

 

[CowboySwagger]

Yes. I think Choice should start. Not taking anything away from Barber or saying one is better than the other....its just pure strategy. This is my line of thinking and how their styles should be used.

Choice runs to day light and can use his lateral movement and elusiveness for an eight man front which I think will be used primarily against us in the first half of games.
Barber looks for contact and runs into darkness...which early on will put us into third and long and put more pressure on the passing game. I wish we had a smash mouth o line that would make it easier for Barber to start...but it has lost some of its mean streak.

Choice's style is great for an eight man front...thats why I think he did great late last year against dominating defenses. He's hard to find in the line....he's quicker and has a knack to find open space. I would like Barbers enthusiasm in the second half to spark the team and to smash an already beat up defense.

I would like if they used felix more in the passing game; screens and out in the flats more...(remember the swing pass emmitt would get from aikman) this would be a great outlet for romo and scary for defenses because if he makes the first man miss in an open field he's going to take it to the house.

Also I hope they rotate them enough to keep them fresh and reduce risk of injury. Of course I am only speaking from a stategy stand point....ignoring ego's, who's paid more, or anything like that...I think our RB unit is going to be the best in the NFL in 09. I just hope our line can get back to being flat out mean and nasty.

i was about to be brave and confess my ignorance - but it appears i'm not the only one who had no idea what they were doing.

seems like a whole lot of "you had to be there" jokes, but on the whole, good to see them having fun!

Did I confess my ignorance again? Dang. I hate it when I do that.

I need to talk to you about Harleys.

I don't know man. I used to ride a Yamaha 750 Maxxum but I think I really want a sport bike now. I have actually been looking at the sport touring series. They sit up a tad higher and are built more for tall people like me.

Here are a few videos.

Yamaha FJR 1300

BMW K1200GT

Honda ST1300

Kawasaki Concours 14

I just put my money down on a 2008 CBR 1000RR that is exactly like the one in my sig (black/yellow).

The 2009's are pretty much exactly the same as the 2008's are, but if you can find a dealer who has an '08 in stock still... they are reduced in price.

If you are going to get a sportbike, here are two good articles to read. The 2008 and the 2009 Superbike (literbike) Showdown from MotorcycleUSA.com. They have the usual suspects, i.e. the Honda CBR 1000RR, the Suzuki GSXR 1000, the Yamaha R1, the Kawasaki ZX-10R, and even a Ducati.

In both smackdowns the Honda CBR 1000RR came out on top, primarily because of it's low-end torque, excellent workmanship, and ability to shine on the street as well as the track. They are all crazy fast... but quality and comfort aren't as uniform throughout.

Which leads me to this: If you don't have some pretty extensive experience on motorcycles... a literbike is NOT the place to begin for you. Really, even the 600's are crazy fast (they are capable of putting up a < 10 second quarter mile)... but they are easier to control than the literbikes.

Once you know what you're doing though... there is nothing close to a 1000cc sportsbike like the CBR... except for maybe what fighter pilots experience in their lives.

I have about 2 years experience riding a cruiser. See above. I had a Yamaha 750 Maxxum. I'm going to need something bigger because I am a big guy. (6'3" and 300lbs) My buddy has a ZX7 and a ZX10 (both Ninjas). We hungout today and after I sat on both of them he convinced me that a sport touring bike is where I should look. A bit of good news... over lunch today I was able to get buy in from the SO.

Women like riding on Harleys man. One ride, she will lose her hesitancy.

Barber may need to be checked for steroids, seriously.

I swear Nors is back.

You don't think he seems a little too big and plays like a maniac? Sounds roidish.

No, intelligent people need more evidence than someone being cut or aggressive.

Barber is just a rock. Plain & simple.

 

[Clove]

Barber is just a rock. Plain & simple.

That guy is huge, very very big and seems like he's upset a lot, and on the field he plays like he's insane.

I don't have evidence, but it just seems that way.

Go try a Road King, Heritage Deluxe, Roadglide and Electraglide. Don't forget you can put loud pipes on later. You won't attack the road like a crotch rocket but my Road King had duals up front and brakes well. I outran many sport bikes with the 103HP/tq. I could drag the pegs anytime I wanted.

You will pay more for one. Get a good used one if budget is tight. They keep their value well and sale well. Stay safe.

not you or anybody else on this site knows if he's roiding or not. this is the NFL and there probably are roiders on every team.

Which is that in your avatar, Jobbs? That one is fine. Is it yours?.

(I'll be rockin' a tad over 150hp.)

There are no probably's about it. Of course there are.

But the notion that Barber is because he plays hard is still bull.

I'm angry most of the time too according to some. My username remember? Does that mean I am on roids?

Pfft.

Nonsense, pure and simple.

I put "probably" cause I figured you might turn it against me if I said flat out that there is roiders on every team. I don't think he's on roids personally but you never know. I like to think not plus I've never seen a roider(i've seen many) be so calm all the time.

I want an Ultra Classic so bad.

This one has my eye right now.

Why would I do that? I don't run from the truth.
