Herbstreit privy to inside info at UNC, Saban talks about rule he hates
Kirk Herbstreit says he'll be shocked if Butch Davis loses job: "I've been privy to a lot of inside information that I'm really not at liberty to speak about from talking to some folks at UNC."
"When all this comes out, I think people will realize what the deal is. I think if they were to dismiss Butch it'd be a huge mistake."
"A lot of the facts aren't necessarily out there - when people hear the facts, I'll be shocked if Butch Davis loses his job."
Official NFL career stats: Over past 20 years, 15,018 NFL players, but only 631 (4%) played 3 or more years. Average career is 3.7 seasons. Have to put in 4 seasons to receive benefits.
Kent State's huge pay day: Alabama has agreed to pay Kent State a total of $1.2 million to visit Bryant-Denny Stadium for the 2011 season-opener.
Nick Saban says it start with intangibles: "The first thing you have to play with is good intangibles. If you don't have the effort, toughness, and discipline, then the rest of it is never going to come. I wanted the team to improve when we were winning, but nobody cared about it then because they were all satisfied because we were winning."
"I think the 40 second clock has been a good addition to college football."
Saban's response on if there are any NFL rules he would like to see implemented at college level: "I don't really know of any."
"The one rule if you are a defensive coach, you absolutely hate…offensive players that can block down field on passes behind the line of scrimmage….that's really a great advantage for the offense. There some plays that you really just can't defend."
Coaches looking forward to weekend games
Mack Brown looking forward to watching his quarterback on Saturday against Iowa State: "(After Nebraska performance) We think we're going to see a quarterback (Garrett Gilbert), tomorrow, who is in complete control of his offense."
(interesting comments on polls) "I'm not so sure coaches do a great job with the polls because they are so tired. With late games, I'm checking scores on the plane. I haven't watched the games. At the end of the season, maybe the coaches do a better job with the polls."
Quoting Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel: "We run well and we're playing very well together as a team, and that's important."
"We are a lot better team than we were three weeks ago. That gives us a shot."
(explanation for struggles against Oklahoma in the past) "I haven't done a very good that. Bottom line, it's my responsibility. We have overcome a lot of stuff here, but I just haven't done a good enough job."
Butch Davis eager for Miami (FL) match-up: "No game is just another game. Miami is a place I spent a significant amount of time. I've got an awful lot of respect for the program. I've got a lot of friends in South Florida."
Randy Shannon tired of losing to Butch Davis: "They have our number right now, and we have a chance to do something about it. It's more of a pride thing that you get tired of losing to a guy."
Illinois defensive coordinator Vic Koenning wants takeaways: "I've never had an issue (with turnovers). As a matter of fact, I've been blessed. I've had some groups that have been in the top in the country in that almost every year. We're just not getting enough here for some reason, and I gotta find a way to make that happen."
Jeff Horton told the Minnesota team… : "I don't know how this decision came about, but this is the decision that was made. And I need all of you guys for us to have any chance for success."
Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads concerned about fragile team: "This is such a critical game for us, win or lose. We got beat by 41 points (by Utah), we got beat by 52 (by Oklahoma). We can't go down to Austin and get beat by 63. It would continue to spiral because it would be harder to bring the kids back."
Doc Holliday concerned about special teams: "Anytime you've got depth issues, which we do, it shows up on some of your special teams. That's the issue we are dealing with right now."
Quoting Les Miles: "If I have to bear some criticism, so be it."
"We need both quarterbacks. We're going to call on both guys to step on the field to give us the best opportunity."
Neuheisel stunned, Bellotti interested in return, Kiffin considering spread offense
Rick Neuheisel stunned following 60-13 loss at Oregon: "That was impressive. I'll leave it at that. It was an overwhelming performance by them, especially offensively. They were dominant."
Tweet of the night: "If UCLA has a pistol offense, then Oregon's is some kind of flesh melting ion bomb."
Former Oregon coach Mike Bellotti interested in coaching again: "I don't know; we'll see. I like what I'm doing (ESPN). The travel is a little crazy, but I'm dealing with it. If the right job came up, I would listen. But right now I like doing what I'm doing."
Lane Kiffin seriously concerned about OL depth: "Unless they start letting us enter 7-on-7 tournaments, we better find some linemen."
Kiffin says USC might move to spread offense next year due to personnel: "Look at what we have. We've got a bunch of really good receivers and backs and tight ends and we don't have a fullback on our roster that's on scholarship two months from now."
"That may be what we need to go to. We'll play with whatever we have."
Jim Harbaugh pumped up about offensive line play: "It's not just run blocking; it's the pass protection. Our linemen are blocking in 1-on-1 situations and getting it done. Sacks are always a good indication of how well the line is blocking (Stanford has given up three), but there are also fewer hits on Andrew and fewer throwaways than last year. It's the way they work and study game plans together."
Jeff Tedford talks about mindset heading into Arizona State game: "What we've talked about is we're halfway through the season, and we're 3-3. We take one game at a time and put our heart and soul into everything we do for each week and lay it on the line. You can't look at the big picture and start to worry about things like that. It's about focus and preparation for this week. That's all that matters."
PAC-12 divides into North / South divisions, commissioner explains championship game site
PAC-10 commissioner Larry Scott confirmed this afternoon the new PAC-12 will be divided into a North Division and South Division. The first PAC-12 conference championship game will be played in 2011 at the home stadium of the team with the best overall conference record.
Scott also confirmed the conference will operate an equal revenue sharing conference. The only stipulation is if the conference does not make over $170 million, then USC and UCLA would receive an additional $2 million from the conference. The revenue plan kicks in during the 2012-13 academic year.
A North Division will consist of Cal, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, and Washington State.
A South Division will consist of Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, Colorado, USC, and UCLA.
Scott said, "All rivalries have been kept completely intact. We have agreed to a 9-game conference schedule with five division games and four cross-divisional games. Protecting all traditional rivalries was an important principle in the structure."
The northern California teams will play the southern California teams every year.
Scott said that the schools will be able to publish their 2011 and 2012 schedules within the next 30 days.
The division of the conference is only for the sport of football.
Regarding the team with the best overall conference record getting to host the championship game, Scott said, "The idea of a collegiate atmosphere, rewarding the fans, and having it be something you earned were all priorities."
MacIntyre says Bama vs Boise State "would be a super game"
San Jose State head coach Mike MacIntyre in the only coach in the country to have played against Alabama and Boise State this year.
On Wednesday, MacInytre said Bama vs. Boise State "would be a super game."
"Boise's very athletic. Those two receivers (Titus Young and Austin Pettis) will be playing on Sunday, there's no doubt in my mind about that."
"Their defensive backs are big and can run. You can't block their defensive line, and their quarterback (Kellen Moore) is as good as there is. And the whole team plays with a chip on its shoulder.'
In related news, Alabama radio personality Paul Finebaum has just written MacIntyre a thank you note for fueling today's broadcast, which airs from 3-7 pm EST. Bama fans undoubtedly will have feisty reactions today.
Rich Rod open and honest in exclusive interview
Michigan is 5-2 on the season under third-year, highly scrutinized head coach Rich Rodriguez.
The Wolverines are IDLE this week, so Detroit News reporter Bob Wojnowski asked Rodriguez for an exclusive interview. Wait until you read this one.
Give credit to Rodriguez for his open and honest answers about his job security, defensive coaches, and pressure to win in the coaching profession.
Rodriguez says, "It's not like, 'OK, I'm gonna try harder because there's more pressure.' You kidding me? I'm gonna try as hard as I can whether we won the last 10 or lost the last 10. That's the way I think you should approach life. Go full speed."
"Every year as a head coach in Division I is like dog years, it should count as seven. There's the toll on your family too."
Rodriguez defended his program by saying, "A lot of people don't know what's going on in a program and make opinions based on what's written or what they hear or what's rumored. If they really, really knew everything, maybe they wouldn't be so quick to judge."
Michigan travels to Penn State next weekend. The Wolverines round out their schedule with Illinois, at Purdue, Wisconsin, and at Ohio State.
Doc gives a shout out to Dan Mullen, other coaches applaud their assistants
At 1-5, Doc Holliday won't flinch, says his plan is the same as Dan Mullen's plan: "Anytime you lose a couple football games, everybody starts to analyze things and this and that. The plan to win is infallible ... The plan to win at Mississippi State is no different than the plan to win at Marshall. We're doing the same things and he just beat Georgia and Florida back-to-back. What we're doing is right; it's in place. We can't flinch. We got to continue the plan and work hard and good things will happen. I truly believe that."
Brian Kelly says Notre Dame assistant Chuck Martin (former Grand Valley State head coach) is ready to be a big-time head coach: "Chuck's ready to be a head coach. He can coach anywhere in the country. Someday, if it opens up an opportunity for him (to be a Division I head coach), I'm sure that I'm going to be the first one on the phone recommending him."
He didn't come to Notre Dame to be a head coach (somewhere else). He came here to make sure that Notre Dame gets back to where it needs to be. I know that is his short- and long-term goal."
Kyle Whittingham praises Utah offensive line coach by Blake Miller: "If we can give up one sack every six games, we'll take that. They've done an outstanding job this year. They really are the nucleus of the offense. The primary reason for our success on offense this year can be directly attributed to the offensive line."
West Virginia defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel explains his style: "I don't concern myself with all that, that's what people end up writing about. I just try to do a good job, and that's the best I can do. I don't worry about whether my name is in the paper or not. You are going to be a good coach [dependent on] whether you have good players; I learned that a long time ago."
Bill Stewart talks about defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel: "Jeff doesn't have an agent, Jeff doesn't promote himself. People think what has made us click has been offensive stars. And, I have said it since I have been head coach, and I will say it again, Jeff's defense has kept us in games. ... I hope he stays under the radar so people leave him alone and he stays here forever."
Mike Leach talks about Dana Holgorsen's style: "He sees things real clear. And he's calm. You don't want a guy who panics, and he wasn't a panicker. I always appreciated that."
North Texas AD explains decision, compliments Todd Dodge
North Texas AD Rick Villarreal explains decision behind Todd Dodge's dismissal: "Coach Dodge has some great skills, but I can tell you that being the head coach of an intercollegiate football team is a different world. There is a skill set you need. He was great in some areas, and like all of us, wasn't good in others. We tried to work through it, but at the end of the day, we are where we are."
"We felt like the success that he had in the state and the coaches he had made contact with would benefit us in the recruiting process. To some degree, that happened. We never made the hire because everyone would be excited today and then we would suffer down the line. We believed, and there were a lot of people with me, that [Dodge] could make the transition."
Going forward at North Texas, Villarreal explains: "We are going to go out and look for coaches with a proven track record at the collegiate level, whether it is it is a coach who is a head coach at a school that would see North Texas as a better position, or a coach who is out of the business this year or two years who has a proven track record, or a highly successful assistant coach."
"It will be a very quick, but thorough process so that we can truly go down the road in recruiting and get out there," Villarreal said.
AD say he would recommend Dodge and commends coach for his class: "I would be more than happy to recommend him. He has a lot to give to young people and is a good teacher. He aspires to be at this level."
"Todd was very understanding. He was a little apologetic and said that he was sorry he didn't win any more games. He has been a class act through this whole process."

Thanks, fellas. Fun, as usual! -
[Comment from Wu]
[Comment from Justin]
Why wasn't Walcott up for mvp? He had a high work rate most of the game, didn't give away any cheap balls and set up the first goal..... -
James Tyler: So, Arsenal leaps over Spurs into 6th. Spurs slides to 8th.
Roger Bennett: This game was all about trust. I still dont think AVB knows who he can rely on in his Spurs squad. Reading Everton the big game still to come...
[Comment from Ben Krimmel]
Power Point Ideas for trip home: A gentle picture of burnt orange leaves signifying that it is only autumn. -
James Tyler: Ha! Didn't think it would end in a 5-2 hiding, of course not.
James Tyler: Cheers to all. Find us on Twitter as Rog said. Two CL boot rooms this week, Tuesday and Wednesday at 2.15 pm ET. Do join us for those.
Roger Bennett: Great shout JT. and it panned out EXACTLY as how you envisaged it right?
James Tyler: Warm hugs between friends at full-time. AVB looks rather rattled. Like someone told him the coffee he just drank had spit in it.
Roger Bennett: Thanks to everyone. Follow us on Twitter

@jamestylerespn (The Ox) -
James Tyler: Told you he'd be key, Rog. Adebayor. As he goes, so goes his team. Madness or genius. Can be only one.
James Tyler: AVB will have Adebayor dumped in the Tower of London for his transgression.
[Comment from Jeff the GFOP]
Thanks James and Roger. Good time as always, lads. -
Roger Bennett: Mazeltov Arsenal fans. Sorry Spurs fans. Bit of a snooze post red card. Spurs fans will wonder how bad the team is or whether the red card was solely to blame.
James Tyler: Red card made it a bridge too far.
James Tyler: FT: Arsenal 5, Tottenham 2
James Tyler: Ramsey sprinting still -- careful, lad! -- and wins a corner for the Gunners. One they're in no hurry to take.
James Tyler: AVB's 4-4-2 almost worked, cavalier and refreshingly retro as it was. All of it undone by Adebayor's early moment of madness. Even in the second half, Spurs tried to be positive but this was always looking to be a losing battle.
James Tyler: Wait, he's fine. Hobbling off.
[Comment from Nick Christie (GFOP)]
Does it make me a bad person that i'm kind of hoping that's a serious injury to Santos? -
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Surely Arsenal fans are even more elated now? 5-2 derby win AND Andre Santos' knee injury? -
Roger Bennett: Tough, tough day for Spurs fans. No joke: I feel your pain. Arsenal fans will love it.
James Tyler: Uh oh. Andre Santos appears to have done his knee in. More victory for Arsenal!
[Comment from Ben Krimmel]
The 125-year-old American keeper a big winner today. -
James Tyler: Aww, so loving, those two. Oxlade-Chamberlain and Walcott warmly embrace, jubiliant in the extreme.
Roger Bennett: Not much of a spectacle. I wonder what AVB will say to Adebayor after the game. Maybe run towards him, slap him repeatedly in the chest while sobbing?
[Comment from Adam]
Southampton boys combine for the 5th. Done and done. -
James Tyler: Why not? Theo Walcott thumps in from the penalty spot. Good pass into him after Vertonghen gave it away cheaply. Easy.
James Tyler: GOAL FOR ARSENAL
James Tyler: Spurs fans have indeed "accepted their fate."
James Tyler: pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-pass-backpass-pass-pass-pass-pass

A disheartening percentage of Clint's passes have been backwards this year. -

ot to give my boys credit, down 4-2 but they're still trying to create something. -
James Tyler: 89th minute. Almost there. Denzel Washington has almost landed the plane.
[Comment from Cutter in Chicago]
Don't have a dog in this fight but can confidently say worse part of an Arsenal win will be Piers Morgan on Twitter. Piers is not #GFOP -
James Tyler: Vertonghen fouls in his own half. Good night, sweet Portuguese prince.
Roger Bennett: Oh Clint. Come alive a little bit yet his decision making is poor.
James Tyler: Sadly not. I need to turn my attention to the ESPNFC homepage.
[Comment from Morty]
you hangin' round for the 10 AM ET games? -
James Tyler: Ramsey free down the left, halted by Sandro. Arsenal just lazily playing out the string. Spurs seeking another goal just to make things interesting.
Roger Bennett: Gallas. really. sad.
Roger Bennett: Pains me to type this: Arteta has been terrific today.
James Tyler: Oxlade-Chamberlain keeps it in on the right touchline. Cuts infield, shoots. It's blocked. Soft.
[Comment from Cutter in Chicago]
Done and done gents. Might have to stop by the crap part of SoHo to see suboptimal radio in action this week. #GFOP -
James Tyler: Wasn't on the pitch long enough to qualify, Josh.
[Comment from Jake]
Worth noting: Down 3-1 at the half and down to ten men, Spurs changed to a 3-4-2 to try and get a result. Arsenal's keeper, meanwhile, is time wasting with a two goal lead, up a man, with ten minutes left. -
[Comment from josh]
How was adebayor not a potential for man of the match? Had more of an impact than anyone. -
[Comment from dan]
the arsenal fans in the florentine pub where i am watching have stopped drinking -
James Tyler: Big applause for the Frenchman. Good, spirit-boosting shift for him today.
James Tyler: Sorry, GIROUD off.
James Tyler: SUB FOR ARSENAL: Walcott off, Oxlade-Chamberlain on.
James Tyler: I'll take a ginger ale too. With Jack Daniels.
Roger Bennett: Can you get us some peanuts?
[Comment from Cutter in Chicago]
Greetings from 30,000 feet. Bless southwest and wifi. En route to NYC, thanks for this coverage -
James Tyler: Chance for Arsenal: Vermaelen has a good run inside Aaron Lennon, fancies a goal for himself. Spurs man gets back in time to poke it off the Belgian's toe as he readied to shoot on goal.

Santos to ask AVB for his coat in the 86th minute -
James Tyler: It's true.
[Comment from timalloy]
for americn fans tuning in, dempsey has been decent when spur have managed to attack -
James Tyler: Giroud wins a throw-in down the right flank. Gunners virtually home free at this point. That Tottenham hasn't really touched the ball in the past five minutes is a comforting sign.
[Comment from YanksAreComing]
bringing on Santos only further ensures that this ending will he hectic and by no means over for Arsenal. Worst Back in EPL -
James Tyler: NINE MINUTES LEFT. Two-goal lead. Most dangerous in football. Most dangerous anything in the universe. Deadlier than an anaconda.
James Tyler: You saw him grab RvP's shirt at half-time of the United-Arsenal game, right? I mean, you did know that it happened.
[Comment from NotTheNoob]
How did Santos earn the nick name "The Souvenir"? -
Roger Bennett: Pathetic from Scez. Really confidence inducing that. 4-2 ahead at home against ten men and time wasting.
James Tyler: I'm technologically polyamorous, Kipa. It's ok.
[Comment from Kipa]
Can't help but think JT is cheating on us in the chat when he goes to the Twitter to make a comment. -
James Tyler: SUB FOR ARSENAL: Lukas Podolski off, ANDRE "The Souvenir" SANTOS on.
James Tyler: YELLOW CARD, ARSENAL: Podolski gets a piece of Jan Vertonghen.
[Comment from Wu]
Lennon is 7th in the EPL in total chances created with 25. The same as Mata. -
James Tyler: Giroud wins the header. Cleared. Arsenal breaks with numbers. Ramsey tries to pick Podolski out in the box but ball drifts up gently for Lloris to catch.
Roger Bennett: much to the chagrin of english tabloid writers, Spurs players have not given up on AVB
James Tyler: Sagna with good defending to halt Bale on the left. Gaz B has been unflinchingly committed despite the deficit. Another corner for Tottenham. Andre Santos readies to come in.
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
I'm reliably informed that Andre Santos already managed to collect all the Tottenham subs' shirts during the first half, is ready to play. -
[Comment from Dago]
Defoe trying out "zonal kicking." -
[Comment from Brendan]
lennon and walcott are the same player -
James Tyler: Half-chance: Bale's corner is swung teasingly to the back post. Defoe, unmarked, air-kicks at the ball on the volley. Should have connected. Shot on target could have gone in.
Roger Bennett: Defoe whiffs. Roy Hodgson nods approvingly.
James Tyler: Lennon, still pressing, wins a corner on the right thanks to Arteta.
Roger Bennett: Lennon has to get that ball in. Just has to.
James Tyler: Theo's first touch there made Gervinho looks like he has pillows for feet.
James Tyler: Worth. Every. Penny.
[Comment from Scott]
$100k a week for that? -
[Comment from timalloy]
can someone make a video of walcott mistakes and put it to Benny Hill theme music? -
James Tyler: Lovely angled ball for Walcott by Ramsey, playing him in behind a flatfooted Dawson. Yet Theo's first touch is leaden. Ball dribbles kindly to Lloris.
Roger Bennett: Theeeooooooo
James Tyler: Not going to harp on Carroll too much, but he has added a bit more optimism to the midfield. That said, how much of that is attributed to Arsenal being in first gear?
Roger Bennett: This is just like watching the Great Escape. It won't end well
[Comment from josh]
Carroll an immediate impact. e should be in the lineup next week. -
James Tyler: Only on FM13 or FIFA13.
[Comment from timalloy]
has wenger ever put together a good defense of players that he was entirely responsible for signing/coaching? -
[Comment from dan]
AVB changed jackets. Big move. -
[Comment from Zefa22]
Suddenly a four goal lead doesn't feel as comforting as it did earlier. -
James Tyler: Dempsey gets it in the Arsenal half from Carroll. Finds Bale in behind Sagna, the Welshman makes a wonderful run into the box and fires narrowly wide with his left foot. Defoe upset as Bale should have crossed it for an easier shot.
James Tyler: CHANCE FOR TOTTENHAM...
James Tyler: 73rd minute.

James Tyler: SUB FOR TOTTENHAM: Tom Huddlestone relieved, Tom Carroll entered.
James Tyler: SUB FOR ARSENAL: Jack Wilshere off, Aaron Ramsey on. Nursing the oft-injured midfielder.

Tom Carroll appears to be 12 years old -
[Comment from Dead Jhonny]
BALE!!!!!! Here we come!!!! (downs cuppa number 10....) -
[Comment from DeSelby]
deuce-face time for Koscielny! -
James Tyler: Gareth Bale afforded room to run. Eventually drills one from the top of the box with his right foot, amazingly. Low finish through Koscielny's legs and Szczesny can't reach it. Uh-oh.
Roger Bennett: Nice goal for the scouts. Gareth Bale.
James Tyler: GOAL FOR TOTTENHAM
James Tyler: Yet it's hard to read too much into it because who knows what the score would be had Adebayor still been playing.
James Tyler: Very! Derby wins can build momentum. See: February's win. Led to Redknapp's demise and the Gunners' surge back from a 10-point gap.
Roger Bennett: Clint strikes out there. Keep calm mate. Dempsey misses Dembele more than anyone. Not able to find any space at all since he came on
[Comment from Vargo]
James, how excited should Arsenal fans get about this result? -
James Tyler: Arsenal flirts with goal number five. Lloris lightning quick off his line to smother the ball.
James Tyler: This midfield is indeed missing some poise. Sandro and Huddlestone two unmuzzled attack dogs.
[Comment from Brendan]
Dembele can't come back soon enough -
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Emmanuel's already eaten the locker room TV. RT @PhilippeAuclair: "Adebayor, what's the score?" the hit song at the Emirates right now. -
James Tyler: Other team news: Oriol Romeu, Victor Moses and Daniel Sturridge all start for Chelsea. Plenty of Blues being rested ahead of the Tuesday trip to Turin in CL action. Oscar, Mata, Ramires not in the matchday squad.
James Tyler: Chance for Arsenal: Walcott played onside by Dawson. Tries to shrug off Vertonghen but can't. Eventually draws Lloris off his line but can't beat him. Corner for Arsenal, and it's cleared.
[Comment from Mike]
It's funny you have to be up by 3 to feel comfortable if you're Arsenal. Juventus is the only big team right now that seems to be even close to "good" at defense this year -
James Tyler: YELLOW CARD, SPURS: Sandro. A formality. Amazing it didn't happen sooner.
Roger Bennett: Sandro...had that coming from the second he stepped on the field
James Tyler: Gareth Bale's giving it his all, still. Muscular run in from the right flank but eventually hustled off the ball by Podolski, doing fine work tracking back.
Roger Bennett: How elated is Friedel to be on the bench? Football is a curious game.
[Comment from bob]
i could not have imagined a better morning -
James Tyler: Mazy run by Cazorla. Arsenal tippy-tappying it about. No pressure.
James Tyler: Defoe's wonderful. Just not his game to shine given the early red.
[Comment from Amanda]
What are the opinions on Defoe? Haven't seen him play too much, but never that impressed. Thoughts? -
[Comment from Brandon]
Arsenal just waited out our spell of energy, then took the match back. -
James Tyler: In Other News... PEPE REINA returns for LFC to face Wigan. Maicon's in the Man City lineup. No taxi called just yet.
[Comment from josh]
Well that should be that. Can't believe i got up on 4 hours sleep for this. -
James Tyler: Giroud fizzes one wide from the edge of the box with his left foot.
Roger Bennett: Garbage time
James Tyler: Chance for number five as Wilshere steams into the box. He's upended and Walcott has a chance to shoot but it's blocked. Spurs praying for the next half-hour to pass in 60 seconds.
Roger Bennett: Good game to pad your stats if you are an Arsenal player
[Comment from Jeff the GFOP]
It's only now I think Arsenal may have a chance to win this thing. And even then, I'm not so sure. -
James Tyler: Too easy. Cazorla taps home from close ranger. Simplest of goals. Long ball flicked on, Podolski played in down the left, he first-times a cross to the back post and Cazorla steals in behind Sandro to convert.
[Comment from Zefa22]
All three signings on the scoreline. Perfection. -
Roger Bennett: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShvJT5_ogCI
James Tyler: GOAL FOR ARSENAL
[Comment from Ben Krimmel]
Per has the grace of a giraffe moments after birth. The fact that he can run and not fall over is one of life's great miracles. -
James Tyler: Dempsey and Giroud collide in midfield. The Arsenal man comes out of it far worse.
James Tyler: Weird stuff, really. Yet they're not really under much duress, no impetus to attack with a 3-1 lead.
[Comment from Dead Jhonny]
I know i did not sleep all night waiting for this game, but is it the Spurs with ten men or the gunners??? It looks like the Spurs are playing with twelve.... -
James Tyler: Good delivery but Bale heads away at the near post.
James Tyler: First Arsenal attack in what seems like forever. Cazorla wins a corner.
[Comment from DeSelby]
this 3-1 lead is looking almost as dangerous as a 2-0 lead. -
[Comment from Scott]
It's like Wenger watched AVB's PowerPoint at halftime -
Roger Bennett: AVB's speech evidently: "You are only playing Arsenal"
James Tyler: 55th minute. Another Tottenham free kick deep in Arsenal territory. Weird, really.
James Tyler: Wait, Walcott is fine. He'll be back. What a soldier.
James Tyler: Jack Wilshere. (jinxes)
[Comment from Amanda]
Is anyone in the EPL more fragile than Walcott? He's always going down with some random injury. -
Roger Bennett: Like watching a whale tackle a shrimp
James Tyler: Aye, Rog. Was a superb obliterating, ball-and-man tackle. Totally well timed, too.
James Tyler: Oh dear. Walcott's hurt. As usual. Superb covering challenge by Dawson as Walcott was played in down the right.
Roger Bennett: "Proper English"
Roger Bennett: Terrific tackle that
James Tyler: ... it's rubbish again. Bale does well though to control the woeful set piece but he's eventually run out on the left.
[Comment from Dead Jhonny]
Can someone else PLEASE take a corner than Huddleston??? He sure can pick ut a Gunner... -
James Tyler: Free kick for Spurs, wide right. Huddlestone must do better...

Andre Santos warming up must look positively angelic to Spurs fans -
[Comment from iainmacintosh via Twitter]
Can't imagine anything that would make me say, "What we need is Andre Santos." Not unless I needed someone to drive me somewhere REALLY fast -
Roger Bennett: Huddlestone moves like a Basement Furnace
James Tyler: Huddlestone drills it low to the near post where it's cleared. Dreadful delivery. With a man deficit, set pieces are your best bet for a cheap goal.
James Tyler: Bale and Dempsey play a 1-2 down the left but Sagna stops the Welshman from reaching the return pass. Gives away a corner.
James Tyler: Funny that, innit?
[Comment from DeSelby]
even 2 goals up and with a man advantage Arsenal's defense looks bordering on suicidal. -
James Tyler: 40 minutes left. AVB with two big rolls of the dice during the interval.
James Tyler: Not sure what Szczesny and Mertesacker were playing at, there. Trying to give Spurs a chance at a goal.
[Comment from Travis]
I'd 8-2 be a spurs fan right now -
Roger Bennett: Santos! How Corinthian of Wenger
James Tyler: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain readying to warm up.
James Tyler: 48th minute. Jack Wilshere thinks he's beaten the offside trap but he hasn't. Flagged.
James Tyler: Yes. Another vital player. Jake Livermore gets minutes for Tottenham these days. That's how thin the squad is.
[Comment from Salvatore]
JT, don't forget Parker -
[Comment from canadiana]
Dempsy = the character in a WW2 movie who is coming unhinged because he's gotten a letter from his wife saying she's left him? -
James Tyler: Who said AVB isn't bold?
James Tyler: Seems like a 3-4-2 according to some reputable chaps on Twitter.
James Tyler: Big 45 minutes for Tottenham.
[Comment from Jake Nazar]
Dempsey just needs to give the Arsenal players his "death stare" and all should be well. -
Roger Bennett: Final score prediction JT? 5-2 has a familiar ring to it
James Tyler: Sigurdsson? Dembele?
[Comment from yes]
who've spurs lost to injuries in the middle JT? -
[Comment from CJ]
Dawson in. 3 at the back for Spurs? Walker and Bale wing-backs? -
James Tyler: SUBS FOR TOTTENHAM: Clint Dempsey and Matt Dawson on, Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker off.
[Comment from Dago]
James Tyler: Subs for Spurs entering... Dawson and Dempsey...
Roger Bennett: Come on Clint. Really. COME ON CLINT
James Tyler: Would say that he's hamstrung by injuries, Jake. Hard to have a Plan B or C when your squad is so thin.
[Comment from Jake Nazar]
That's the problem with AVB's system. He has no Plan B. He has his speed demons out wide who put crosses in and he has solid forwards in Defoe and Ade but he has two labored, slow, unimaginative, defensive, Centre Midfielders so when he needs to go throw the middle he can't. -
[Comment from Scott]
"Fulham came back from 2 down last week" -
[Comment from Marty]
AVB needs to bring on someone who can rile up Wilshere and get his sent off. -

Yo' shins, bruv. Dey iz massiv! -
Roger Bennett: Remember the Alamo
James Tyler: "Remember that Clint face thing you did? Do that today."
[Comment from Jeff the GFOP]
I cannot imagine what that trainer was trying to convey to Clint Dempsey -
[Comment from josh]
At this point I'm all for bringing in Carroll. Lets see what the kids got. -
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Vertonghen playing CB seems to have unsettled things a touch also. So used to playing at left back. -
Roger Bennett: Brilliant
[Comment from canadiana]
Assume AVB's got JT (as in John Terry, no disrespect James...) on speakerphone... -
Roger Bennett: Oh Sir Ian...
[Comment from DeSelby]
agree with Rog and JT. i complain incessantly about refereeing but no complaint here. it was Adebayor who ruined the game, not Webb. -
Roger Bennett: Follow us on Twitter:
@rogbennett (Sandro)
@jamestylerespn (Huddlestone) -
[Comment from Salvatore]
"Remember the San Siro!" -
[Comment from Marty]
Gallas has been the best player for Arsenal, Lloris is a close second. -
James Tyler: If Brendan Rodgers can use Suso, Sterling and Wisdom in a Merseyside derby, give Carroll a chance.
Roger Bennett: I do wonder what AVB is saying in that locker room. really i do...
Roger Bennett: A lot to ask a young kid in a north london derby when he is on a hiding to nothing. would be fun to see though...
James Tyler: Swap Carroll for Sandro. Add a bit of pace to the middle. Plus there's always the chance that Jack Wilshere does something equally stupid.
James Tyler: I see that, Rog. But hardly helped by two diplodocuses in the heart of midfield. Huddlestone and Sandro could never play with pace to begin with. I say bring on the young Tom Carroll. Let's see what he's made of.
Roger Bennett: Agree with JT on the red. Refs in derbies (unless the offence was committed by and Everton player) like to keep the sides at 11 a piece. Webb had no choice.
Roger Bennett: JT: Spurs game was built around speed. Once you cede a one man advantage, lennon and Bale have been driven back, and they have absolutely nothing to offer at the other end as Huddlestone is so slow in transition so the break is rarely on
James Tyler: They are terrible, but this one was justified. Couldn't let him stay in the game. Webb has no choice.
[Comment from stiglerv]
Red cards are terrible. Ruins the flow. Adebayor was foolish. Webb always has to get involved. This is not what I got up early to see. -
James Tyler: Played LB more or less all season since Assou-Ekotto's injury. Suddenly in the middle, he's not exactly getting his positioning right.
James Tyler: Anyone else wonder if the sudden jolt of having Vertonghen at CB is also a factor?
[Comment from Marty]
take of Gallas and bring on Dempsey -
James Tyler: Sandro. Why bother? He's a walking yellow card waiting to happen.
Roger Bennett: Lloris
[Comment from yes]
if dempsey comes on, who would you take out? -
Roger Bennett: Here's the man of the half for me:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShvJT5_ogCI -
[Comment from josh]
Shaking my head as a spurs fan. Arsenal's defense looked like they couldn't handle our pace, and then the (fully deserved) red card. -
[Comment from CJ]
Haven't been this deflated over sports since Raul f'ing Ibanez -
James Tyler: Save the tough questions for another day, Jeff. This is a day for ignoring problems and celebrating life.
[Comment from Jeff]
Why can't Arsenal seem to turn it on until they're behind? -
James Tyler: Bit late for that, Chen.
Roger Bennett: Says it all: Spurs most repeated pass combination: Vertonghen to Naughton with 6
[Comment from Chen]
friedel coming on for lloris? -
[Comment from rogbennett via Twitter]
What an emotional 45 for Spurs fans. From delight to devastation in the blink of a half. The beauty of football. -
James Tyler: Yeah, but Spurs have been passive and not helping themselves at all since the red card.
[Comment from rogbennett via Twitter]
What an emotional 45 for Spurs fans. From delight to devastation in the blink of a half. The beauty of football... -
[Comment from Michael]
I feel bad for AVB, Adebayor's moment of madness is what put Spurs here. -
James Tyler: I know, Orr. Painful.
[Comment from Orr]
Excellent advantage played by Howard Webb, must be said. His "help the red team" policy never seems to benefit Liverpool though... -
James Tyler: Andre Villas-Boas better get his notebook out.
James Tyler: HALF TIME: Arsenal 3, Tottenham 1. "We wish we could play you every week."

Great day for disgraced ex-Arsenal players and Arsenal players that Arsenal fans aren't sure they love just yet. -

Ooof. I think Giroud's middle name may be "Vichy." Collaborator. -
[Comment from Moonshiner]
Now it's just going to be 45 minutes of Arsenal Angst being taken out by team and fans -
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
#FriedelMeme -
Roger Bennett: Terrific play by Giroud. The most joyful little man in English soccer
James Tyler: Sloppy set piece clearance, Cazorla fouled but Webb plays advantage, races into the box, drills a low cross and Giroud turns it home.
James Tyler: Giroud's stretched the lead
Roger Bennett: Even Giroud Scored
James Tyler: GOAL FOR ARSENAL
James Tyler: YELLOW CARD, SPURS: Aaron Lennon cautioned for hip-checking Vermaelen as Huddlestone underhits his pass to the Spurs winger. Walcott plays in the free kick, it's cleared.
Roger Bennett: Theatrical?
James Tyler: That's one point of view, Guest. Webb really had no choice but to show a red. Adebayor made the decision for him with an awful tackle.
Roger Bennett: What an emotional rollercoaster this half has been for Spurs fans. Sorry Spurs fans.
[Comment from Guest]
Feature Saturday match ruined at 20 minutes by a showboating ref. -
[Comment from Nick Christie (GFOP)]
Rog, is Lloris' middle name "Maginot" ? Germans are bypassing him at an alarming rate. -
James Tyler: Lovely run by Podolski is nearly rewarded via the fine ball over the top for him to chase. Lloris, apparently forgetting he can use those gloved appendages at the end of his arms, opts to head it clear.
James Tyler: The home side Gunners in full pomp now. Like this derby business is easy.
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Goal of the Ugly Season. -
[Comment from Zefa22]
What's better than to score a goal and get a standing ovation by Henry? Nothing. -
[Comment from Moonshiner]
Arsenal is a team built to play 11 on 10. -
James Tyler: Sheer persistence by the German. Gets it at the top of the box and shoots between Gallas' legs. It bobbles and squirms past a confused Lloris, slipping in at the far post.
Roger Bennett: Survivor mode now for Spurs
James Tyler: So much for survival
James Tyler: Lukas Podolski
James Tyler: GOAL FOR ARSENAL
James Tyler: Cazorla tricky on the edge of the box. Decent cross aimed at Podolski but cleared. Gunners attacking in waves. Tricky spell, 5 minutes to half-time. Must go in level at the break if Spurs is to have a chance. Survival mode.
[Comment from Larry]
JT:does this sound familiar: "at least we're not losing" -
James Tyler: Close range header, Lloris with brilliant reflexes.
Roger Bennett: Arsenal need to get the ball to Walcott's feet. just 19 touches but he leads the team in attacking third with 13. his width and pace will undo Spurs if this teammates can find him
James Tyler: What a save by Lloris to deny Giroud!
James Tyler: Vertonghen heroically heads another deep, right-flank cross clear. Walcott very lively.
James Tyler: For as comfortable as Arsenal has looked with the man advantage, the score's still level. Gunners not being clever in allowing Spurs to hang around.
James Tyler: No. Think Webb was planning on giving a red the entire time, kyspursfan. Just took him a while to calm things down before he could issue it.
Roger Bennett: Wilshere begging for cards all over the show
[Comment from kyspursfan]
Didn't look like Ade was going to get sent off until things heated up on the pitch shoving etc,,. Do you think the red card was a move to keep things under control? -
James Tyler: Think AVB's going full-on Lord of the Flies? Guessing he eats Huddlestone first.
James Tyler: 37 minutes of largely uncynical footy between loathed rivals.
Roger Bennett: AVB. jaw out. top button undone. tie askew. tie is going to end up wrapped around his head, shirt ripped off at sleeves the way things are going.
James Tyler: Been a fun one this, eh Rog?
James Tyler: Another set piece for Arsenal. Wilshere's delivery is cleared.
[Comment from pedro]
Like Stewie Griffin says: "He runs like a welshman" -
James Tyler: Sagna fouled/caught/nipped by Aaron Lennon as he tries to cut inside the Spurs winger.
James Tyler: Best Tottenham's got. But he'll need to drift infield and become more influential, as he tried to do with that run.
James Tyler: GAZ BALE
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Gareth Bale, running like he's stuck in a German heist film with multiple storylines and timelines and some techno music. -
[Comment from Dead Jhonny]
run bale RUN!!!! -
James Tyler: Lung-searing 65 yard run by Bale right up the middle. Draws two defenders near, wins a corner. What an effort.
Roger Bennett: Bale. needs to do that again and again. ran out of steam but lord do spurs need him to step up today
James Tyler: Decent early ball by Walcott from the right but Lloris comes out and catches.
[Comment from Per]
Arsenal looking much better now. We should play 10 men every week. -
James Tyler: Spurs free kick swung in by Huddlestone from the left touchline. Superb inswinging ball but Defoe can't make a touch. Nor Gallas in the middle of the crowd. Goal kick, Arsenal.
Roger Bennett: real chance there. terrific ball by Hud

"Maybe Roman was right" -
Roger Bennett: Things that will be in AVB's half time power point. 1. Man in Iron Mask. 2 Papillon 3. Robert the Bruce 4. St.Bernard puppies
James Tyler: Chance for Arsenal! Santi Cazorla has a vicious crack from 25 yards. It swerves and zips narrowly over the bar.
James Tyler: Free kick swung in, Giroud meets it with power and his header's goalbound until the ex-Lyon flings himself to his left and palms it out for a corner. Spurs barely manage to clear the set piece.
James Tyler: What a save by Lloris!
James Tyler: Defoe now a man alone up top for Tottenham. Covered by Koscielny AND Mertesacker. Poor lad. An elf among Ents.

James Tyler: What do we think's written in his notebook, then? Beat poetry? Doodles of Arsene Wenger?
Roger Bennett: Wonder what he is writing? "If" by Rudyard Kipling?
[Comment from Chen]
AVB looking at this notebook. Sad -
James Tyler: Vertonghen hacked by Wilshere, who's determined to force Howard Webb into a booking at some point.
[Comment from Marty]
little known stat of the match: Adebayor has been sent off 4 times, 3 by Webb . . . probably all against Man Utd. -
James Tyler: The Gunners with all the ball now. Stroking it about like a full-pomp Barcelona side with a six-goal cushion. So easy to do it when you're 11 vs. 10.
James Tyler: Quality analysis, all. Can find no fault.

James Tyler: Set piece headed away at the near post. Another chance for a cross but it's blocked by Huddlestone.

James Tyler: I TOLD YOU ADEBAYOR WOULD BE THE KEY TO THE GAME!
James Tyler: RED CARD: Adebayor's off. High boot into Cazorla, two feet off the floor. Webb chucks him.
Roger Bennett: Howard Webb got that right sadly. raised the foot.
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Emmanuel Adebayor goes all Djibril Cisse. -
James Tyler: Uh oh... Adebayor in trouble. Lashed out, it seems. Argy-bargy begins in earnest. Crowd demands a red card...
Roger Bennett: Wilshere is running round the field as if he hungers for an early bath
James Tyler: Moments later, Gallas and Giroud tussle in the box but the Spurs CB wins the day.
James Tyler: Half-chance for Arsenal: Good run in midfield by Wilshere, he plays it behind the defense for Walcott to chase in the corner. Overhits it a touch but Theo reaches it and scoops it back into the middle... Giroud couldn't get there.
Roger Bennett: Things we will type all day: "Giroud should have headed that"
Roger Bennett: Look like a bunch of depressed minstrels out there
James Tyler: Lennon tries to scurry past Koscielny on the right but the French defender takes a good angle on the ball and slides it back to Szczesny.

[Comment from Nick Christie (GFOP)]
Rog, is it sacrilidge if instead of a Boddington's I have a Duvel this morning? Adebayor's driving me to drink, and, like Everton, I prefer Belgians. -
James Tyler: I'd say they do. It's still early -- 75 mins left -- and they're at home. Giroud's looked better lately. Etc. etc etc
[Comment from Vargo]
James, Arsenal don't have Van Persie this time to will them back into the game. Do they have the mental fortitude to get back in this game? -
James Tyler: On the goal? Oh, Szcz did wonderfully to keep Defoe's effort at bay. He was unlucky that Adebayor was well-placed to profit.
[Comment from Larry]
Was it a superb initial save, or did Ches have the right angle? -
James Tyler: Another ghosting run tricks Mertesacker and gives Bale some room to run infield. He drags it wide right for Lennon, who takes a step and fires from 15 yards. It curls agonizingly wide at the last moment. Bale can't believe it.
Roger Bennett: 4-4-2 is the future JT
James Tyler: So close to number two!
[Comment from JamesTylerESPN via Twitter]
Emmanuel Adebayor in proper "Puck" mode thus far. Always good for his teams when he plays with mischief. -

Roger Bennett: Good news for Arsenal fans... You are not going to go 2-0 up in this game
James Tyler: Statue time....

Oh my word and another returning Arsenal man! -
James Tyler: Told you he'd be important. Bale drifts wide, Defoe spins off Mertesacker to meet a long ball between defenders, his low shot is saved superbly by Szczesny but Adebayor stabs the rebound home at close range.
Roger Bennett: Adebayor... scooping finish
James Tyler: It's Emmanuel Adebayor!
Roger Bennett: LLORIS
James Tyler: GOAL FOR TOTTENHAM AND THIS ONE COUNTS
Roger Bennett: Lloris
James Tyler: Aye, it was artful. Not a toe-poke. Curled instep.
[Comment from Dago]
He should get some credit for the non-central defender finish. -
James Tyler: Set piece cleared, follow-up shot by Huddlestone is blocked in the crowd, falls for Gallas to bend it into the top corner unmarked but he's behind Koscielny. Relax, Gunners fans.
Roger Bennett: Gallas. They love that at Arsenal. They'll make a statue of that called "Gallas thinks he scored for Spurs"
James Tyler: GOAL FOR TOTTENHAM BUT IT'S OFFSIDE.
Roger Bennett: I don't recognize Aaron Lennon now his eyebrows have grown back in

I applaud Theo's Movember efforts -
James Tyler: Vermaelen concedes a soft free kick in the Arsenal half.
James Tyler: If Arsenal looks like a well-oiled orchestra in possession so far, Tottenham's most closely resembled Spinal Tap after an all-nighter.

Sczcesny is has to be getting kittens looking at Bale, Defoe and Adebayor in his first game back. -
James Tyler: Kyle Naughton with his first test on the left flank. He does well, calmly cutting out a long pass intended for Theo Walcott.
Roger Bennett: A note on Clint. Tough start but I believe he has surplus confidence to weather this
James Tyler: Definitely a card magnet.
[Comment from Orr]
And by someone, you mean Sandro -
James Tyler: Arteta dings in the set piece, it's nodded clear.
James Tyler: Sandro tempting fate a bit by encroaching on the free kick he just conceded.
James Tyler: Wilshere shackled by Sandro again in midfield. Webb issues a warning. Four minutes in. Someone's getting sent off today.
James Tyler: Good to hear, Jomentum. I went 12 rounds with a bottle of Blanton's and lost, TKO. But there you go. Good early pace to this game. Emirates crowd alert and in full voice.
[Comment from Jomentum]
Can't believe I made it...I had enough PBR last night to make Sir Ian Darke proud. -
James Tyler: Sandro with some early work to do. Not the best Brazilian ever created, but a passable holding midfielder. Arsenal enjoying early glut of possession. Walcott's cross is poor, hacked clear by Jan Vertonghen.
Roger Bennett: So many players on this field with so much to prove... nerve central.

James Tyler: Howard Webb in charge. My heavens.
[Comment from chicagooner]
Spurs need to harry Arteta and prevent Cazorla from getting on the ball. Also, to attack Vermaelen down the flank, as he has looked anything but convincing at left back. Arsenal simply need to cut out the individual defensive errors, and hope that Giroud's recent run of good form continues -
James Tyler: Arsenal to score 367-6 declared; Spurs bowled all out for 212.
James Tyler: Gunners fans: are you happy that Wojciech Szczesny is back between the posts?
Roger Bennett: Score prediction? 7-5 to Arsenal
James Tyler: Baffling, innit? His knee injury is clearly not progressing as planned. He was also on Twitter quashing rumors of arguments with Villas-Boas. All very strange.
[Comment from CJ]
There's never any updates on Assou-Ekotto's injury like there are for the other Spurs out of action. He was supposed to be back in training a month ago. What gives? -
James Tyler: Morning, Mrs. West Hiller. I'm assuming Spurs will finish in the top half. It's a given. So many mediocre teams.
[Comment from West Hiller]
do you think that tottenham will make it in the top half or bottom half? (my mom says to tell you I am 10). -
James Tyler: KIT CRISIS AVERTED: Arsenal does appear to be in its traditional colours. Phew.
James Tyler: Fair points, Rog. AVB is definitely meddling -- Vertonghen finally at CB, RB Naughton shuffled to LB in Assou-Ekotto's absence, no Dembele, etc.
James Tyler: Well done, Dane. May it propel your side to a result you're happy with.
[Comment from dane]
sorry about your 2hrs of sleep sir but ive been going on a 5hr drinking spree since i closed the bar i work @ 2am last night cst... COME ON YE GUNNERS -
Roger Bennett: I feel that Wenger has more players he can trust than AVB does... Spurs will play with speed. Arsenal will play with craft. We know there will be goals. I would be shocked if Arsenal dont win this
James Tyler: My son has no idea that I'm stealing the TV back in less than 5 minutes. Bless him. Happily watching his cartoons, oblivious to my plan. Sorry, lad.
James Tyler: Rog, your keys to the game? Mine's a simple one: Emmanuel Adebayor. If he's in full-bore Puck mode, irritating the Gunners backline, I reckon Spurs will have much success. If he's stuck in sulky, I-Want-A-Transfer mode a la his final days at City, he'll be the iceberg that sinks his own ship.

Roger Bennett: I interviewed the great Hunter Davies ahead of this game. Huge Spurs fan. He dismissed Gareth Bale as being "fast yet simpleminded"
James Tyler: 2-1 Spurs. It's time. Having knocked off Man United at Old Trafford, this ragtag mob led by an odious egotist pull an Ocean's Eleven at the Emirates.
Roger Bennett: I love the North London Derby. Few Premier League fans take such delight in their opponent's misery. One of the teams will be in real pain in 90 minutes time.
James Tyler: PREDICTIONS: Typically feisty affair, one I think Tottenham steals late. Just a hunch. Gunner malaise gets deeper than the Mariana Trench.
James Tyler: Lost a bet? Laundry accident? Not sure.
[Comment from Zefa22]
Why isn't Arsenal wearing their home kit? Someone please tell me. -
[Comment from chicagooner]
Some eggs Bennett-dict perhaps? ... I'll get my coat -
James Tyler: Louder, please. I don't wish to hear the Grim Reaper approaching. Ugh.
[Comment from Wu]
James Tyler: I thought such things were outlawed. At least when it comes to pseudo-prodigal continental managers with a good taste in fashion and questionable taste in facial hair.
James Tyler: AVB's using a 4-4-2! Honest!
James Tyler: TOTTENHAM: Lloris; Walker, Vertonghen, Gallas, Naughton; Lennon, Sandro, Huddlestone, Bale; Defoe, Adebayor.
Subs: Friedel, Dawson, Livermore, Townsend, Carroll, Dempsey, Sigurdsson. -
Roger Bennett: Great Tweet: @JLunaSF @ESPNFC Lloris? No Dempsey? Why am I up at 4am? @MenInBlazers @embassydavies @rogbennett
Roger Bennett: Make us some eggs would you, love?
James Tyler: Indeed, Rog. I've a dumpster full of black coffee, too. Should help.
James Tyler: ARSENAL: Szczesny; Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Vermaelen; Arteta, Wilshere, Cazorla; Walcott, Giroud, Podolski.
Subs: Mannone, Jenkinson, Santos, Coquelin, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arshavin. -
Roger Bennett: Dressing Gowns on JT
James Tyler: No beating 'round bush, here are your XIs:
James Tyler: I'm running on barely 2 hours of sleep, surely the perfectly fevered state in which to enjoy the North London Derby.
James Tyler: Morning all!

I have been an avid and serious bass fisherman for many years. I have fished in Virginia for over 30 years.
I usually fish the James Appatomatox and Chikahominy rives and Lake Chesdin. In the Spring I try to make at leat one or two trips to Buggs Island.
recently, due to health reasons my Doctor has decided that I can no longer fish alone, so I am currently looking for someone who is a serious, experienced Bass fishermn to partner up with. I never fish on holidays or weekends. as the waters are too crowded. But for the most part, I can go at anytime.
I own a Javalin Bass Boat so that should not present a problem to anyone.
If yyou are interested in Bass fishing and looking for a partner who is competative and fishes hard, and you do the same. Then I would like to talk to you.

See the Most Memorable Oscar Beauty Moments Ever!
Feb 26, 2014 @ 8:33 amThe 86th Annual Academy Awards are taking place on Sunday, and next to the couture gowns sure to line the venue, we'll also be keeping score of the gorgeous red carpet beauty looks — along with the amount of times host Ellen DeGeneres leaves us laughing out loud, of course. Hollywood's biggest night and the grand finale to awards season aptly calls for full-on glamour, so each year, stars pull out all the stops to show off a range of stunning hair and makeup looks. Jessica Chastain's beautiful red lip from last year's Oscars still stands out in our minds as one of our favorites — we loved how the blue-based strawberry hue gave her complexion a striking contrast, while her shimmery eye and lush lashes held a sultry, Marilyn Monroe-esque vibe. To gear up for the big event on Sunday, click through our gallery to take a look back at even more Oscar beauty moments we loved from years past!

O.K. So I decided to build a new costume for Comic-con, I started this 2 days ago, and this is what I have so far.
Please be gentle!!!
More updates tomorrow.
I do final paintjob and add some stuff with a final fitting before con.
2 DAY?!?! wow...That is like two weeks of work for me! Looks awesome!!! I like the toothed edges of the plates!
I cant tell from the picture; what type of helmet is that?
Looking badshabs Frac! love the custom plates.
It's actually a scratchbuild helmet.
I have a million little things on my costume to finish, butI will be wearing it to con.
I am helping with the trivia at 2-3 on sunday, so come!!!!!
It should be awesome.
Man, that's a lot of work! You should do a tutorial or something.
You obviously have way too much time on your hands; can I borrow some?
Seriously though man that's really sweet! I love the blasters and the paint job. Kandosi!
Thx guys!!!
I went to Con and need to work out some bugs. More velcro, more glue, a few extra straps and...... PRESTO!!!!! Ready for Con on Friday.
Didn't wear my helmet as I am retiring it.
Guess what!!!!! I got interviewed by entertainment weekly and figures.com as well as a Japanese magazine!!!
I'll post a link to the story when it comes out.
More pics to come......
Here are some pics of me being interviewed by entertainment weekly.
Dude, seriously lucky. You gotta post the links to the interviews when they come out.
I know G4 is there, try to get on TV with them.
Will do, when and where are they going to be???
That's the link to one of the photo ops. Check it out.
I added to much padding to my bucket, and I had just fiberglassed it, so that was the only time I wore it that evening.
Here is the link from the EW interview!!!!!
I am in the first minute of it.
Sweet. congrats man.
Thanks bro!!! I am winding out of custom mando for the time being, all I have left to do is build a helmetand make a mold of it, so I can make one whenever I want. Other than that, my next project is either a fullsize scout bile, or a skiff that works. (kinda)
thanks :)
More pics.
The one of me holding a sign in the air (last one) is the trivia panel that Dave Filoni hosted, and I helped with, I met the guy!!!
too bad your bucket wasn't ready huh? Next year vod ;)
Yeah... next year hopefully as either a fully-armored G.I.Joe or as a SUPER heavy mando.
Fun! Bet the interview was exciting. :D Nice armor, btw.
Thanks Ordeyn!!! Yeah the interview was fun, if I had known they were EW, I probably would have freaked out. :) I was being checked out by the channel 5 newscrew (local san diego) but they decided against an interview.
Very nice...
Can't believe ya got interviewed, even if they insulted you afterwards...
Your armor and helmet looked awesome.
Not much more I can add.
When did they insult me???
Not sure if this counts as an insult to you, as a lot of people take certain insults as compliments...
He called you a geek and nerd.
Oh yes, and I almost forgot, UNBELIEVABLY good armor, ner vod!
Thanks, and I think he was more insulting Comic-con, than me particularly. :D
It was a quick 3 hour job with some extra sintra lying around. tip to making armor..........
wait for it............ JIGSAW!!! :P
...or bandsaw...works great too!!! :thumbsup
VRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM *Squelch* RRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMmm.....The re! My new mando armor!
*Looks at misshappen lump of plastic*
''you sure that's armor, boy?''
''Nope, but what the heck, most people don't even know what mando armor looks like!''.
Sad, but very, very true.
Or was that very, very sad but true :D?
Or maybe very, very sadly true?
But now I'm rambling...sorry, all moderators!
Anyway, I'm thinking of just running around the neighborhood looking for sintra...
Though my dad thinks that I'm going to get some kind of disease *AGAIN* if I use any kind of chemical plastic.
And, ner vod, you can lie all you want about the 3 hour job, but I know it took longer than that.
NOBODY shapes and cuts out? and paints the armor in 3 hours.
So you can't fool me :( :D :( :D.
Not to mention sanding...
It's not that hard to do BlueJay. True it took me three days to shape and cut my armor peaces but in the long run it turned out really good. If one knows what they are doing then it can happen. A friend made a set of armor in 15 minutes. Really its not that hard.
Commander, that's either amazing or an extremely exaggerated lie...
You're using cardboard, though...he's using plastic.
I would not lie to anybody. In fact it took me at least twenty minutes to cut out my peaces of armor. But in those three day I was able to fold and fit the armor to my form. Now I have to add a smoother surface to the top of my armor so no cardboard lines would show through.
And it's not a lie BlueJay he told me himself through myspace.
I think he was being facetious. :) THanks for the comment, and actually, the whole build, helmet, guns, armor, paint, kama, holsters pistols and shins, took only about 7 hurs total, but that chaingun is the best thing I have created (next to my scratchbuilt E-11 of course. :P)
Hey; you did a great job. If I had the paint, padding, attaching material that I need then my armor would already be finished aside from the helmet. But all in all you did a great job. You must of taken a break as well during the painting stage of your armor as well.
Actually, during that I built the chain gun, and prepped the guns for painting. :)
Bet that took a while..
I can cut and form armor in less than 3 hours, so it can be done.
I cut out 3 sets (kid size even) in like 3 hours, I did mess one plate up, but that's just battle damage. See my thread (from begining to see the armor plates)
...helmets are the time-takers. :facepalm:lol
gotta be, they are the most complicated part.
Heh, mine still in cardboard form. :rolleyes
me too. :) I glassed the inside for extra stregth, but its mostly a display prop now. :P
I'm thinking I might be lazy and just buy my first helmet, in factthat Krayt dragon bucket from Saz I'm in line for will almost assuredly be my first as i won't have time to make one tween now and when he has them ready, and I won't have any money to spare to buy one if I'm saving up for that beauty.

Among the many artists who have broached the subject, Kiefer (born 1945) is preeminent in his concern with the transformation of earthly elements such as oil, straw, lead, mercury, stone, metal, rust, and mud. Kiefer said, "Alkahest signifies that there is a solution which can dilute any substance. Dilution is of course something very important for me. I often lay pictures on the floor and pour water over them, or pour on water that has paint dissolved in it. So I'm exposing them to dilution."

Create a power-line connection with Actiontec 500Mbps kit Video
Create a power-line connection with Actiontec 500Mbps kit Video Transcript
Hi guys, it's Dong Ngo here. You have problem at home with your wife, well good luck on that, buddy. But if your problem is your WiFi network, I have something here that might help, and that's going powerline networking such as this Actiontec 500 megabytes per second Powerline Adapter Kit right here. Now, this kit always come with 2 separate adapter. And that's because you need 2 adapter to create the very first powerline connection. Here's how powerline works. You take the first adapter and connect it to the router of your net- home network. Like this. Okay. And take a second to connect to a network device such as a computer or a printer. After that, just practice 2 adapter in 2 separate room socket and that's it. You have just connected the network device into your home network. Basically, the powerline adapter turn your home's electrical wiring into a network cable. There's many powerline kits and powerline adapter on the market, but the Actiontec Kit right here is very good because it come with 2 very small adapter. Actually, probably the smallest I've ever seen. Be aware that you have to plug the powerline adapter directly into a wall socket for it to work well and it might not work at all if you plug it into a power strip or a short protector. On the side here, next to the network port you can see there's a security button. Pressing of this button on each unit within 2 minutes of one another would create a security powerline connection between them. That is necessary if you use them in an apartment and try to keep other from tapping into your home network by using another adapter in the apartment. The best thing about this Actiontec Kit here is the price. It costs just $50 with 2 adapter included. That is less than many other single adapter on the market. For more information, check out the in depth review at CNET.com or you can send me question via Twitter or Facebook. Once again, my name is Dong Ngo and this has been a quick how to on powerline networking with the Actiontec 500 megabytes per second Powerline Adapter Kit.

WV Attorney General Urges Consumers to Report Price Gouging
WV Attorney General Urges Consumers to Report Price Gouging

The BBB is warning consumers about people overcharging for bottled water in the wake of the recent chemical leak.
Thursday, Governor Ray Tomblin declared a state of emergency for nine counties in West Virginia due to a recent chemical leak in Charleston. This state of emergency includes West Virginia American Water customers in Kanawha, Cabell, Boone, Putnam, Lincoln, Logan, Clay, Roane, and Jackson counties.
West Virginians in the affected areas are being told not to use the tap water for drinking, cooking, washing or bathing and only to use for sanitary purposes and fires.
"The only option for residents is to purchase bottled water," said Amanda Tietze, VP of Public Relations for the Better Business Bureau. "People are waiting in long lines, often time for hours to purchase just one gallon of water. Some stores are taking advantage of this crisis and severely overcharging in some instances as much as $30 for a case of water," said Tietze.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey urges people to report instances of price gouging during the state of emergency that was issued in nine counties after a leak that prompted a water emergency.
"It is illegal for any person or entity to inflate the price of water in times of emergency, " Attorney General Morrisey said. "We are hearing reports of price gouging going on already in the region. It is illegal and just plain wrong for a business to take advantage of consumers and West Virginians during an emergency."
If you are searching for clean water the Attorney General wants to warn you to be safe and double check where the water is coming from.
"If you hear anything about price gouging I will do everything in my power to prosecute people and go after them," Morrisey said. "We are going to show no mercy with people who try to take advantage of citizens during this critical time. This is a very serious thing and I want to make sure that all vendors know that you cannot take advantage of West Virginian citizens.
The BBB encourages anyone who has been charged overly inflated prices to file a complaint with the Attorney General Consumer Protection Division at 800-368-8808.
