Neighborhood problem turns violent

[Malenko]

Id rather the giants win then the pats, I hate them more then Tommy, and thats saying something. Its kinda like the lesser of two evils, Im saying I'd rather get kicked in the nuts then stabbed in the neck

[shardian]

I think we came closer to anyone who has played the pats in beating them. Can we do it better next time? Maybe.

The Eagles and Colts were definitely closer.  I was never in doubt that they would beat the Giants, even halfway through the 4th when the Giants were still winning.

I felt the Patriots would beat the Eagles and the Giants, but I thought the Colts had them. One thing is definitely true, all three teams played absolutely awesome against the Pats and still lost.

I'm not sure if he just said he hates the pats or the giants more, or if he hates them more than tommy does or he hates them more than he hates tommy.

Me too. 

That does explain why he never listed my madden player request.

How hard of a kick are we talking? Depending on the kicker, I think I'd rather take the knife to the neck.

One of my dogs. Since we have gone around in circles because of him he deserves a little online time.

Oh, what the hell.  Let's turn this thread into "Post Pictures of Your Dog Thread."

[ChadTower]

Now that I think about it, the game I most thought the Pats wouldn't be able to pull out late was the Ravens game.  That might have been the closest they came to losing.

At least we can't argue the strength of schedule crap people talk about the '72 Dolphins.  These Pats beat everyone in the NFC East (all at or above .500), the Division Champs of all three other AFC Divisions, 10-6 Cleveland, 10-6/NFC Championship possible NYG... and that's not even counting the 7-9 teams they beat (Cincinnati, Buffalo twice).

Hell, if not for playing the Dolphins twice, they'd probably have an average opponent of way over .500.

Sorry I didn't know you were related to this dog.

[DrewKaree]

I can break it down for you like this, and you can't say anything about this comparison no matter what you do.

Wanna bet?   Let's see some nonsense, shall we?

Both of these are dangerous things in life controled by people. Don't give me that "a gun can't walk off and kill someone", cause a dog can't either.

I didn't think I'd have to be the one to break it to you, but strap that helmet on a little bit tighter, Tommy, cuz here it comes:  dogs have legs, and CAN just "walk off and kill someone"!  *GASP*  OH NOES!  I just demolished your premise by pointing out......basic anatomy of canines?  Jeez, try making 'em a bit tougher next time

The owner is in control of it's dog and gun and if the owner is not responsible people will die just the same.

If the gun owner leaves his gun in the yard, there IS a chance that someone will come by and kill someone with it.  There is also a chance that the DOG will ALSO kill someone who comes by.  The difference is that the gun won't leave the yard of its own volition and kill someone else, which can and DOES happen with the dog.

For the record, I'm not for banning ownership of the animals, but I DO like this idea:

Perhaps pits should not be banned but regulated like owning a big cat or other exotics.  People would still own them illegally but at least there would be some control.

Tommy, if you seriously don't get the concept Pat is pointing out to you with the Puma/Pit Bull comparison, you haven't ever seen a puma, nor did you even do a cursory investigation.  The comparison is not only valid, but a pretty damn good one.  You can't make it INvalid by saying "nuh uh, it's not even close, because one's a WILD animal, but the dog is a DOMESTICATED animal".  He covered that.  You're simply playing third-grade rules.  Doody head.

[MikeQ]

I warned you Tommy.

Good one. 

[ChadTower]

We took the photo and waited about a year to show him.  He wasn't pleased.

That is pretty ---smurfing--- mean.  Remind me to never hang out with you, just in case I forget.

[shardian]

Drew, you DO realize you are a bit late in this debate aren't you?

Yeah they all changed tactics and started talking about their american football.

We should ban Pit Bulls and American Football

Some of us can't post during the day while at work. 

You're not about to tell me you could resist beating Tommy over the head with sense and logic, because this thread is rife with examples of just how poorly you are able to resist such a thing

Fun, i'nt it?

[tommy]

They have finally seen the light, drew, at least to some extent. The only one around here with no real logic seems to be you. You still keep quoting all the wrong quotes and keep making all the wrong points at all thew wrong times.

We are not surprised at this , though, drew, for that is your trademark. 

[CheffoJeffo]

* tommy continues to live in a wonderland where the actually defensible positions are what he originally intended to say and so, at least to some extent, others finally see the light.

Pit bull bites man - he comes back with a nail gun

I love how the story completely glosses over the fact that the dog was a pit bull.

I am curious as to why that is on CNN?

Anyways, since you bumped this up I'll update you. I haven't seen the dogs in a long time. I was starting to think he just got rid of them, but I heard them barking inside on Tuesday as I walked to the mailbox. So now instead of being an ignorant owner by letting his dogs run free, he is now an abusive owner that keeps two large dogs inside the house 24 hours a day with no walks, and no time outside. At least his dogs are HIS problem now and not mine. That is the important thing.

Here is the local REAL news report on the incident.
http://www.wsaz.com/home/headlines/13865902.html
The user posts are a nice read. I think they had alot to do with why C.J. has kept his animals in.

The Putnamlive report is the reporter I spoke to originally. Had I knew then what I know now, I would have never spoken with him. He isn't a real news reporter. Note that all articles on PutnamLive are done by the same reporter. Why? Because Mark Halburn is a whiny Hurricane resident who likes to cause as much trouble as possible, and makes his reports say what he wants them to say. He invented the website to get phony reporter credentials to aide his trouble-making.
Anyways, I can't remember if I posted his followup story, so it is below. I was pretty pissed upon reading it of course, since he went out of his way to suck C.J.'s wang in the article. Which of course, is because he was pissed at the shooter for being rude to him.

Note: My coworkers pick on me by totally siding with the owner. Why? Because his wife is a total MILF. I guess I can't fault them for that - she is way hotter in person.

[ChadTower]

That really is a high end pornstar hairdo.

If someone wants a big dog like that they need to live several feet away from anyone.

Yeah, that's the solution.  Make him live 15 feet away!

[Samstag]

Several feet?  He's at least a yard away from the nearest neighbor!

[shardian]

Come on guys, lets give him a break. It is obvious that he meant yards instead of feet.
He was obviously distracted by the pornstar hairstyle.

[ChadTower]

How can you live several yards from your nearest neighbor when every neighbor has their own yard?  Duh.

Make a deal with him.  His dogs can roam if his wife is with them - naked.  Risk/reward is restored.

That's a good idea. His dogs can come in the yard whenever they want if I can watch his wife shower any time I want.

[ChadTower]

That's not a fair trade.  His dogs in your yard for you and his wife in his shower.  One trespasser for another.

[mr.Curmudgeon]

Wow. That article is so horribly written, and so absolutely one-sided. I especially love how he keeps referring to the dog as a "Terrier" instead of Pit Bull. You know, to soften the story a bit. 

What a wanker of a "reporter".

[ChadTower]

I think I found the location.

[ark_ader]

Awww look at the kissing puppys.

Thats pretty funny Chadtower, considering.

You should write for the Tonight Show.   

[shardian]

Well, it appears the dogs are officially gone.

The wife was talking to the girl that lives across the street - next door to C.J. - and her story was that someone "stole" the dogs.
I find that hard to believe myself, considering they weren't ever out anymore. What I think happened is the wife got sick of the dogs living in her house and arranged for them to disappear. My mom did the same thing with my dog as a kid.

Either way, GOOD RIDDANCE!!!!!

[ChadTower]

What often happens in that situation is the county finally comes with a seizure order... and the owner says the dogs were stolen.  Most of the time they're just off with a relative in some other town while the owner and relative convince themselves they are the victims and are doing the right thing by saving the dogs from their evil neighbors.

[IronBuddha]

You must live in a bad area, with some bad people who own some bad dogs, now I see how you can be so stupid as to think all dogs are bad, especially pits. Wisen up.

When did he say all dogs?
So dogs that aren't disciplined only live in bad areas? I think it maybe you that needs to wisen up

Just so you know, Tommy is long gone. He was "special".

Oh, I'm new here so I don't know anything about Tommy. I just now noticed this thread was started in January, I just read it last night.

[Texasmame]

HEADSHOT!

[protokatie]

We need a new pinata. 

Hows this for ya?

[Wade]

The only thing unfortunate about how this turned out is the guy should have taken the dog somewhere else to shoot it.
