TD I think you asked who was the OL guy. and Ross Hall worked out for Eagles. I understand today's workout was for free agents signed and unsigned. Kowaliski and Ross Hall worked out for Birds previously.

GDog,

Please post your bets on the NHL Playoffs and the odds you received for each series.

Anaheim was the only sweep in the 1st round. They were the 1 seed going against the 7 seed (Winnipeg) in the conference. I suspect the odds were about 8:1 for a series sweep on that series.

has anyone else experienced having to fill in some blurry letter/numbers before site lets you in?

I guess we can say current or maybe should we say 10 years, for the sake of argument. Balancing quality and quantity.

Last big decision for moving the family to London, a result of getting into two great schools for kids (6.5 and 5).

Want to live walking distance to school, so

A school near Sloane Square (Belgravia, Knigtsbridge, Chelsea, South Kenisngton): cosmopolitan, over the top in some ways, but awesome central location for work, tons of families from all over

Or

A school in Hampstead: leafier, greener, quieter, not cheaper but still very weather but older and understated, great village, though maybe a little less shops/restaurants at fingertips, great park access with Heath and Regents Park, and actually not much longer a commute (Liverpool st station)


I have a slight lean, based slightly on school visits, but quality of schools are both outstanding, so coin flip there

In case you want one, you can now get your very own crying piccolo player bobble head doll

Let's see what happens. Is Chip Kelly going to get Mariota? What will the cost be if someone moves up (not 3, 1's as Mariota isn't fetching that much). Which city will splash the most keyboards? Will the Steelers please draft a DB in round 1? Let's hear some predictions.

8 back before May 1

I am going to have a 3-4 month gap between selling my current house and moving into my new one. What's the best way to find a decent place for short term in the CoP area? Don't want to live in a sh*thole, especially since NickleDimerIII is coming during this gap.

Mascot is racist because he's white. Students calling for a set of diverse mascots, a black knight, a Latino and a female.

Anyone have any info on how the visit went. I just read an article online that he loves Nova and thinks Jay is a great coach and a great guy. He has apparently been following Nova since he was a little kid.

Today. Hope he sticks.

Will wrap up his visits this weekend. Visited Baylor, and has Illinois and Oregon this weekend.

...Austin Colbert, who chose Indiana, shortly before VU got a commitment from Darryl Reynolds a couple of years ago, has transferred out to Old Dominion.

I liked Colbert and thought he would really develop into a nice PF. It hasn't happened yet, but moving on, and closer to home, to ODU might be a good move for him.

Frankly, that entire group of PFs has yet to show much on the court and surprisingly, DR might turn out to be one of the top two from the group of four JW was looking at signing. Roberson, at Syracuse, is the only one to gain significant playing to so far.

My oldest daughter gets to pick our family vacation spot this summer since she is graduating HS and she thinks she wants to go to Costa Rica, since we've never been there.

Any recommendations for a nice, upscale resort? Not opposed to an all-inclusive as long as it is nice, kind of like Beaches in Turks. I know Costa Rica is a big place so I'm sure there are tons of regions (none of which I have any clue about). Needs to have a nice tennis facility and would ideally be on the coast.

How is the food? Generally speaking, is it safe to travel outside the resort? Are there typically direct flights out of Philly?

Between lacrosse, tennis, and college stuff, the only time we can go is early August. Is it too hot then?

Thanks in advance.

just minutes ago. The kid had a gun & was shot by a cop.
