whatever, difference of understanding between american and British cultures. Maybe they should have informed him about some rules being around the duchess

Tom Cruise

3. What is your attitude toward this reaction to LeBron James putting his arm around Kate Middleton's shoulder:

No reaction. Piers Morgan is a dick head and the "royals" are puffed up rich people getting their balls licked by a whole nation. They should consider themselves fortunate that LeBron...the REAL KING......even had time for them....sheesh

Unfortunately, I think that BH will start again this season due to issues that Johnny will suffer. No reason why, just a hunch.

2. Who is your favorite "famous" midget?

For this obviously I am including all "little people".....as I don't know if there technically is a distinction between a midget and a dwarf....except to say that "little people" don't like the M word.

Some candidates that I can think of: Peter Dinklage....currently of Game of Thrones. Vern Troyer "Mini-Me", Warwick Davis.....the guy you see in everything from Star Wars movies to Willow to Harry Potter etc. Kenny Baker who plays R2D2. The creepy guy from Twin Peaks...Michael Anderson. And old stand by Billy Barty

For now I got to go with Dinklage who has give multiple Emmy winning performances.

But.....how about best "Little People Troupe" I go for "Time Bandits".

Yea....I am pretty much in "Lighten Up Francis" mode. It ain't like he tried to grab her ass or her boob.....though I suspect that the thought crossed his mind. You were in America, you were in New Yorked.....you are gonna get teched. As long as it ain't offensive roll with it baby. ( I do note that the protests did not come from her or the Prince). And remember......LeBron is the King of accomplishment. They got what they got by the accident of birth.

4. The Big 12 got "shut out" of the Field of Four for the College Playoff. Some say it is because they did not have a championship game....but to have a championship game, the Big 12 would have to add 2 schools. And that may in fact happen. Which 2 schools do you think should join the Big 12?

Actually, I think they could add 4 schools......and I would like to see that conference go back to being called The Southwest Conference. Seven of the Ten teams came from the old Southwest Conference. (only Kan. St. Kan. Iowa St. were not part of the SWC). As for schools, candidates include Houston/SMU (who both used to be SWC schools) plus maybe Tulsa and Tulane.....or if you want to keep WVA happy you could add Cincinnati....who I think is in serious talks about joining that conf.

1950s Rams with Norm Van Brocklin, Elroy Hirsch, Tom Fears

1960s Packers with Bart Starr, Jim Taylor, Paul Hornung

Which of these do you think was the best group, and why

Obviously the prejudice for the Browns is there with the Motley/Graham/Lavelli trio.

After that I think I like the Colts trio of Unitas/Moore/Berry.

1. How many games will Johnny Manziel play before he is out with an injury?

They gotta get a clean shot at him first. I think he will prove to be as elusive as Fran on that score.

SMU and Rice so they can complete the Big Dumpster fire that it already is. If those two don't want it, New Mexico and New Mexico State (or maybe Monterrey, Mexico). BTW they got exactly what the deserved for running off 4 good schools with their arrogant ways (you know who I mean-that place in Asstin that shall go unnamed).

I plead the 5th so when I eventually make it there for a game I am treated well.

Did you honestly leave off the 90s Cowboys. Aikman/Irvin/Smith? Come on Gipper.

I didn't realize that I did. I had them written down.....just inadvertently omitted them when typing. Oops.

Fixed

Did you inadvertently omit answering #3 and 4?

OK, so, no, most Browns fans probably don't know what you mean. Who was "run-off" and why were they?.
