    You would need Eyes Only Clearance along with Tuna owing you a bundle for Horse Race Betting...:D

    That would be really cool though, but if I could be there for only 1 day I'd want to be there for Rds 2-4...rd 1 is on Friday night? Or Thursday night and it is only 1 pick, I'd rather be there for the real dogfights in the later rds..

    "I want that guy...well I want this guy!"

    Heck, I'd be happy just to see their draft board.

    Aww bro that would be awesome....Ross could make some huge money with that too!! Have it where it is like a 2-way mirror set-up, good audio so u can hear, good sound protection (so when Ireland says "what about Dez at 12"), they cant hear us swearing at him hahahah, you give your phone up, so u cant communicate/text, have a bathroom, and food/beer there so you would never have to leave....toss in a bikini clad cheerleaders and it would be golden Pads!!! you like that bro?!?!?!

    Hmm...not sure I'd want to spend 4 days locked up in a room with Dolphins fans for a NFL draft...now if there were TV's so we could watch Jets fans reactions when they take a pick..and when the "Jets draft busts" video is rolled...then sure..

    It would be a 4 day long Super Bowl party..eegads...:ffic:

    Mays' time of 4.43 is undoubtedly wrong. He was much closer to being somewhere around a 4.31. Definitely not a 4.19, but just as definitely not a 4.43.

    very interesting.....very strange, hope a correction and FINAL OFFICIAL "OFFICIAL" time is posted. But partial electronic timing is still dumb.

    Good find. Still amazed that with all the technology at our disposal that they cant seem to find a better way of tracking the 40.

    The issue is allowing players to start running whenever they want to so the start is hand timed. Seems like they could put a timer on the players body that would start when he crossed the 0 yard mark and stop when he crossed the 40 yard mark though.

    Would be rather easy. That's what makes it so sad.

    You might be able to do it using an RFID tag and a sensor across the starting line. You could also put one on the finish line too rather than rely on whatever trigger they are using now.

    That doesn't really bother me bro and it shouldn't bother you either. Mays has played very well in college. There is a reason he's one of the top safety's coming out of college. Here read this evaluation of another safety done by ESPN and try and figure out who they are talking about. It should help ease your worries.
