    The folks designing it had a clear target (the cypres) to do better than


    That's where the comparison fails. I dont know if (nor do I think that) they wanted to so better than Airtec. You don't need to make a product technically better to compete with another. Pricing, total cost of ownership, ease of use, distribution channels, etc are other factors that can come in.

    Looks like in the end, you do get what you pay for.

  2. The big European countries have been pretty lack-luster this WC...

    Italy, Spain, France, England, Portugal (till today... What a trashing that was!). Germany got a bad deal on their second game, but they'll rally for the 3rd, and the Dutch are giving a great show of it.

    I suspect Spain will also rise its game to where it should be today... But Italy, the UK, and France really need to look at their game, and do some major changes. With the way they played, they did not deserve the seed position they got...

    And if you yanks don't like football, nobody forces you open this thread and post... :P

  3. I hear you... Skinny fuckers... Last time I went up Mt Lemon, I was grinding away, at my casual slow pace (no, I'm not a climber:I'm fat lol) when I heard some guys talking from a distance behind me... No sweat, I dont mind getting passed by strong climbers.

    Well, these 2 guys passed me, chatting and carrying a normal conversation... on their full suspension mountain bikes. We were not amused.

  4. Leblanc will have quite the uphill battle in front of him!

    Still, as much of a fan of Les Bleus that I am, this is pathetic.. And I dont know which part if more pathetic... The coaching, the coaching, the team's attitude, their game on the pitch... Oh well... It's only 4 years till the next one, right!

    And yeah, Italy is looking pretty flaky too...

    I can't believe that no one has made a comment on this. I have never seen such a fucking crock of a call in my entire life. Although the way he was calling the rest of the game it doesn;t surprise me. To top it all off, based on the FIFA rules, he doesn't even have to explain why he called it back. :S
    If this was a Columbian team that got robbed like that, I am sure that someone would be pulling an Escobar on that referee.

    What a load of crap.



    It was a crappy call... There definitely was some hanky panky going on, but both players were hanging on to each other, with the 'rican not anymore at fault that the Slovenian...

    Fair enough. Do you agree with Barton's apology to BP?



    Yes



    Must feel pretty lonely in your house...

    He told me he wanted the Samuari because he heard he could turn lower due to a quicker plane out.



    Holly fuck.

    Who told him that? The SAM does not recover quickly from a dive. At all.


    It's time like this that I really pray that you are trolling my friend


    I should know better than to feed them, shouldn't I... [:/]

    These Uruguyans play like italians.



    Agreed...

    Overall, the European teams that were expected to perform have been very underwhelming (exceot for Germany)! The South American teams seem to be in the driver's seat...

    Big game in a couple of hours! Allez les Bleus!

    I was told that at one point Brian Germain would not sell a Samurai to anyone with fewer than 500 jumps.

    A friend of mine just bought a Samurai. He only has 100 jumps. He also downsized from 170 to 150.

    He was just under one-to-one on the 170.

    An instructor sold it to him.

    Does this seem OK?



    Ok? No.

    What's gonna happen? He'll be just fine until he isn't. It may never come, and god willing it never does. But, possibly not having had a spinner on something less radical, this person may not be...

    Fuck it, there are no new lessons here.


    Wow... Wildcard is getting wiser in his old age! ;)

    Pretty much right on: he'll be fin till he isn't.

    I wonder if they are *ever* going to fix that.:S
    I really wonder when I signed up.:|



    What is up with THAT???? At first, I thought Remi had p-shopped the picture.


    At first, I was offended that you would think I would alter something in order to make a joke... Then, I was kinda flattered that you thought I could use Photoshop... :P
