    Are you on Pacific time or what? No, the Miami Dolphins will not be stupid enough to pick up Tim Tebow as he decides if wants to go missionary in the Philippines and have signed David Garrard. Apparently Garrard underwent back surgery and wasn’t declared healthy until recently and it was a God send for the Fins. They thought, “If Denver will pay 95mil for a dude with a broken neck, they may be on to something and we can get this guy dirt cheap.”

    My friend, you are not alone, living in your own private Idaho – the place is getting crowded!

    GhostRider, bringing you wisdom – night and day! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

  2. GhostRider says:

    HEY!!!! That sounds like a great idea for a new poll: Which team will trade for Tebow? And yes sir, I am going to commit my self here – small pause, while the GhostRider takes a knee and has a small Tebow moment – put me down for Miami….NOT!
    Had you included Denver and a million had picked them, it would not have been because they were, “swamis”, it would have been because they got lucky and picked the right one – like little kids playing, “I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 10.” Wow, now that I think about it, forget the new poll, just say, “PICK A NUMBER BETWEEN 1 AND 5”. Sounds like fun!
    Yesiree, GhostrRider Wisdom…that’s my story and I’m sticking to it

    • TGO says:

      Actually, the front office of the Miami Dolphins might just be stupid enough to pick up Tim Tebow; after all, they are presently considering David Garrard, the former QB of the Jacksonville Jaguars who was cut last year and not picked up by any other team.

      Hey, he might re-energize the “Wildcat.” The thing is, with Tebow every play is the “Wildcat.” Oh well, so much for the element of luck.

  3. GhostRider says:

    Well, according to your linear thinking, we are both to be ridiculed.

    Me – according to you – me for being incapable of making decisions for fear of being ridiculed if I’m wrong – and as is the case, for being wrong having eventually picking the Jets.

    You – according to GhostRider wisdom – for the infantile waste of time in creating such a lame poll, and as is the case, for having been wrong by picking the Dolphins and you get an extra helping of ridicule for not even putting up Denver as a choice.

    GhostRider Wisdom…Bank on it!!

    • TGO says:

      I realize that even the slightest thought of having to answer a harmless questions, such as a poll question, gets your panties all bunched up as you like to say. I know, I know, your “consciousness” can’t handle commitment of any kind. And don’t tell me that it’s only because these are silly, stupid questions – because “God” knows you’ve spent enough hours on meaningless CACA-talk in your lifetime (with me alone) to total probably several weeks-worth of your life.

      Now, back to the real issue. Being that I’m not a swami, I never would have guessed that Peyton Manning would go to the Broncos. Let’s see now: no decent receiver, no decent running back, no dome (potential snow and strong winds from mid October through the end of the season) AND a conservative coach in John Fox who likes running the football; can anyone say Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams (when he coached the Carolina Panthers)? Add to that the Tebow-mania that the stupid (but very Christian) Denver fans are obsessed with, and the Broncos would have been in the four or five least desirable teams for Manning to go to in my opinion; maybe only ahead of the Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns and St. Louis Rams!

      Anyway, maybe now Denver will trade Tebow to Miami (hopefully for no more than a third-string punter if you’re a Miami fan). Oh wait, there is no such thing as a third-string punter… Well, that tells me that if Miami gives ANYTHING up for Tebow, it’s too much.

    Please note, as you know me, and being that I am not anal retentive, as long as I know what someone is saying, I could give a fuck how they say or write it, so I rarely if ever, correct people’s grammar or literature – unlike someone you may see in the mirror later today – but if I didn’t in this case, you might find it a dis-service and get your panties bunched up for not educating you by letting you know. Plus, I don’t like to be flattered erroneously and receive accolades I don’t deserve.

    My realm of expertise is in the Consciousness and not “Conscienceness”

    Consciousness is when you are aware of your body and all the things about it. When you regain consciousness you awake from a coma where you are unconscious and cannot understand what is going on around you, and as relating with the mind and soul. I am completely unable to even have an intellectual conversation on “Conscienceness”

    As a matter of fact, “Conscienceness” is not a word. It is a mixture of “consciousness” and “conscience”, which have very different meanings. Consciousness is as I defined above. Conscience means an instinctive knowledge of the difference between right and wrong, the capacity to feel guilt, and the tendency to do the right things for non-selfish reasons. To be honest with you (To thine own self be True) I don’t think I have much more of a “conscience” than you do – and you never know, maybe even less.

    -GhostRider Wisdom…you can take that to the bank!

    And btw, TGO, the song Everybody must get Stoned – whose real title is “Rainy Day Women” – that I posted on another blog of yours, is really also meant for this one right here…you see, the intended meaning of the lyrics had nothing to do with pot or drugs contrary to popular belief….The song is incredibly apropos as a commentary right here – in light of how you got your panties all bunched up, giving yourself a hell of a wedgie – you do that a lot. The song is about being ridiculed, being criticized, being persecuted. Dylan was saying, they’ll criticize you, no matter what you do… So “you don’t have to feel so all alone” when you’re criticized cause “Everybody must get criticized”.
    In GhostRider terminology, his, the song’s, statement was , “Criticize me, see if I give a Fuck” -GhostRiderWisdom…that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

    • TGO says:

      I know that everyone gets criticized; it’s no big deal. I actually see it as a form of flattery.

      By the way, one of the things you are consistent at is you inconsistency. However, when it comes to “lines,” you are truly consistent – so much so that you wear them out so they lose their impact. Such is the case with: “GhostRiderWisdom… that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.” And: Judge me, see if I give a fuck.” I think “Conscienceness” was my favorite of all; considering the althernatives. Although: “Conscienceness Technology” sucked the BIG one. Maybe you should consider starting your own dyslexic dictionary…

    I stand by my comments that sports/football/fantasy football will always be there if you come to grips with your needs / desires and that the most absurd, asinine, ridiculous, business transaction I have ever seen a football team do is to give a 5yr extension to Mark Sanchez, a QB that still has 2yrs left on a contract, a QB that is seen as some sort of locker room virus with his team mates, a QB that had an inferior season to his previous one coupled with an 8-8 season preceding the contract extension – I don’t get it.

  7. GhostRider says:

    Of course I remember! Just as there are moments shared between us almost 4 decades ago that I remember and if my destiny is to live another 4 decades, I may still remember some moments between us, and quite fondly I must say. Yes, sports / fantasy football was the reason you started this Blog in the first place but that was in a different world.

    In that world, you had still not gotten in touch with your insatiable, obsessive-compulsive need and desire, to tell the world that you believe that God doesn’t exist. To tell the world that you believe females are inferior to men. To tell the world that you believe that all the leaders of Religious institutions, are maggots. To tell the world, that you believe the Spaniards are stupid and barbaric To tell the world that you believe they belong in insane asylums because they believe in God. To tell the world how much you hate the Catholic Church, how much you hate Muslims. And not just to tell them once, or twice, or even a redundant trice, but to tell them every day, over, and over, and over again.

    But sports/football/fantasy football will always be there if you come to grips with your needs, and with that in mind, I bring you this football “post”. In my history of following football, this has to be the most absurd, asinine, ridiculous, business transaction I have ever seen a football team perform.

    • TGO says:

      Yes! Criticize me all you will, but I KNOW that you KNOW that my thoughts/observations/analogies/opinions/judgments/views/beliefs, etc. are 100% accurate.

      Unlike most people, I’m not a hypocrite who talks out of both sides of his mouth, nor am I afraid to speak my mind, nor do I try to be politically correct, or to appease the masses. I’m not afraid to say I’m an atheist when others straddle the fence, or say they believe in a cosmic power, or consciousnesses, or whatever other CACA they invent to avoid going against popular beliefs and superstitions. No, that’s not me. I don’t wimp out. Love me or hate me – what you see is what you get. There is no hidden agenda, there are no secrets; this is me – period.

      As for this worthless Blog, it has done one thing for me, it has helped me learn to type a whole hell of a lot faster. It has also kept me entertained during all of those restless, sleepless nights… Do I believe this Blog has made a difference in anyone’s life? NO, ZERO, NONE, ZILCH. In fact, it has been the butt of jokes and ridicule among “friends.” Do I care? Hardly; if I did I would have stopped writing my silly, worthless commentary a long, long time ago. So… until the day comes when I get bored with it all, until I find another way of wasting away the precious minutes and hours that define my life, I’ll just continue blasting those idiots who believe in the invisible man in the sky; the maggots who lead religious institutions; the stupid Spaniards; the pedophiles in the Catholic Church along with their ass-sniffing followers; the Muslims and their barbaric beliefs; and anything else that comes to mind. Anyone who wants to challenge any of my beliefs and/or opinions is free to do so. Anyone who simply wants to criticize and ridicule me is merely talking to the wind…

    Peyton will not be traded to any of the teams mentioned on this poll. As far as I know, and barring a last-minute change of heart, the Indianapolis Colts are expected to release quarterback Peyton Manning and once released, they no longer “own” him, a prerequisite for a team to trade him. If Peyton uses GhostRider Wisdom, he will retire and head for the broadcast booth

    • TGO says:

      Poll has been corrected.

    • TGO says:

      I corrected my post (poll) when I realized that in haste I had incorrectly stated that Peyton Manning would be traded instead of cut. Anyway, you still have not given an opinion (voted) regarding what team you feel may pick him up; as I knew you wouldn’t.

      Not even for fun, for speculatory reasons, are you willing to commit to an answer, and that’s because… you are incapable of making decisions for fear of being ridiculed if you’re wrong. Your goal is to criticize; not cooperate. I suppose it makes you feel somewhat superior.

      I know, I know, you’re not part of the herd, so you’re not going to participate in a poll because that implies taking direction from someone else. I’ve heard it all before… But, you really shouldn’t steal my lines, as I may accuse you of plagiarizing; and any reference to the “herd” is taking my lines.

      • GhostRider says:

        Dude, I thought my opinion was evident in my comment – that he should head for the bucks he’ll get working TV, and I think that is what his logic will finally dictate he does, So my answer, and if you had made a provision for it, as with all multiple choice questions, I gladly would have clicked it, would have been, and I’ll spell it for you: N-O-N-E. O-F T-H-E A-B-O-V-E. Having said that and going with the possibility that logic does not prevail with Peyton, as even the most intelligent of people are feeble-minded when it counts, I’ll say, The New York Jets. And btw, I noticed that you just said caca but not where you yourself thought he was getting “traded” to. And Dude, my philosophies extend to include those actions also, not just about being judged: “Ridicule me, see if I give a Fuck”… “Accuse me of plagiarizing, see if I give a Fuck” -GhostRider Wisdom…that’s my story and I’m gonna stick to it

        • TGO says:

          I voted on the poll; I believe it’s the only vote – Miami Dolphins it is! This Blog obviously is not popular with sports fans. How ironic, as sports (fotball/fantasy football) is the reason I started this Blog in the first place. Remember?
