NJTank Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Well you know the Jets will give him the boot one can only hope that when he is given the boot he goes cleanly through the doors and not hit the door jam and end up short. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyRock Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 My personal favorites from eBay/points website:1 - A guy had an auction for his personal hatred, where he would hate the inning buyer for all eternity. The bidding went up to $200 before it got pulled.2 - A friend of mine made ten dollars selling empty 2 liter soda bottles.And the best one comes not from eBay, but from Frito-Lay. You guys remember those Ploids you can get on the back of frito-Lay products? Well, a few years back, if you collected one billion of them, you could get an F-18 fighter jet, and it was totally legitimate. They didn't count on anyone getting a billion, but one man did. As soon as they announced the winner, the government seized the fighter from them, and offered the man no compensation. I'm not sure if his billion ploids were still valid after that.

DGivens87 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Hey, instead of buying Doug Brien, why not just have his head on a silver platter? see below:http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5159016020&rd=1 A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN!
