  1. I am a huge basketball fan, and was a Cavs fan long before lebron came to town... The 61 win Cavs weren't good enough, so lebron bolts for Miami where he can 'easily' win a championship with his buddies. Players colluded to bypass mgmt to create a team with an abundance of individual talent but little on court chemistry. And that's just what that have. They can overwhelm bad teams with individual talent. But, when elite teams beat them with good team basketball, they cry? Really? This is absolutely hilarious. lebron made himself a target with his skip-town-and-win-right-now-decision. He didn't seem to want the pressure of being The Man in Cleveland, so he created a situation with WAY more pressure in south beach. Too bad, but crying...never seen anything like it. :cry::cry:
  2. All you need is a fist full of amphetamines, a big bore rice rocket...and it's war baby, War of the Superbikes!
  3. Unless Charlie Sheen can snort it...I've lost interest.
  4. I went through 3 Road Attack rears. Good mileage and plenty grippy for leaning through the twisites. When I burn through my PR2, I may give the RA2 a try. There are lots of good tire choices these days.
  5. hmmm...this may be my next http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPliHk1sLkw
  6. ^^ a .22 pistol w/scope is loads of fun. Buckmark, S&W, Ruger, etc, all good.
  7. If you like shooting for the sake of shooting, a .22 target pistol is hard to beat. They're inexpensive, accuracy is impressive, and cheap to shoot. I have a S&W 22S with a Pro Point. It'll tear out the center of a bulls eye at 50 ft.
  8. I would agree with you, except for the millions of $s, tons of hot women, and years of partying like a rockstar.
  9. I am about 10 minutes from Berea. Not in a huge rush, but it's for sale... Just like everyone else, I need to see cash before a test ride. It's quite clean, and mechanically A1.
  10. I'm in Parma, just south of Cleveland.
  11. I had this out for a ride last week. Still for sale.
  12. I had a chance to fire a 375 H&H Magnum once. It took a nice chunk out of a 45lb plate at 50 yds.
  13. A .38 slug is not .38 inches. It's almost identical to a .357, which is .357 inches.
  14. During the race, they mentioned something about how Gordon took Bayne 'under his wing' this week. And taught him about the track. Apparently, Bayne was paying close attention.
  15. It was definitely cool to see Bayne win. At that level, this kind of story just doesn't happen anymore.
  16. After 3 generations of ZTL, stopping power is on par with the best dual disc binders that have been in developement for 25+ years. Plus ZTL gives lots of feel. The advantage of the ZTL was never stopping power, it's weight. It's sheds something like 4 pounds of unsprung weight and most of that is in the front wheel. The only other way to shed that much unsprung weight is carbon fiber wheels and you can't do that at a price point that will actually sell.
  17. It's a cool bike. The used Buell market is in flux, so it's hard to say what's a good price.
  18. A real American Superbike.
  19. I'd venture a guess that the 'Seconday Muffler' is there for EPA reasons. I suspect it can be removed in about 60 seconds.
  20. That's the 1190RS teaser photo. No word yet on whether they'll be ready or allowed to race it this season.
  21. Vance's has it for $349. But, do a search or check the S&W forums. S&W doesn't seem to have all the bugs worked out of these quite yet. Too, bad because it's a cool design.
