DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Alright, now that I've read through 7 pages of bickering, let's get down to brass tacks.Who are you?Someone's never watched "Blazing Saddles"....Actually, I haven't, so I don't know what you're talking about. According to this, the phrase "get down to brass tacks" (which I'm well aware of outside of the context of a movie) dates it back to the late 19th century. If the "bickering" thing is part of a line from the movie, whatever. I mostly objected to the idea that someone is supposedly cool enough to tell people to stop arguing because he had the singular, coolest prediction in all of football fandom. It wasn't even insightful and didn't add much. "Who are you?" was a pithier way of saying "Why should I care what you think?" And I took the line "Who are you?" from an episode of The Daily Show, although the actual reference was "And who the are you?"So there we are. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I'm pretty sure that Steve Sabol of NFL Films is one of the few others who can say they've been to every superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that was beaten to death.Yeah, that was kind of point. I'm not a fan of people making vague points with ellipses. So my natural reaction is to spell it all the way out, so we all know exactly what we're talking about. And I'd still like to know what Blazing Saddles has to do with anything.

rams80 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Based on the coverage I have seen...I would like to nominate Junior Seau as the likely "Mercury Morris" annoying guy who needs to shut up from this Patriots squad ten years down the road.
