What about the final incomplete pass that was ruled a fumble lads. That was a terrible decision and it was never reviewed. There was a penalty on Pittsburgh that would have brought Arizona down to the Pittsburgh 29 for 1 or possibly even 2 attempts at the endzone.

I got up and left seven pounds after about seven minutes, did I miss something? It had the worst possible start to a movie for me with mention of suicide and judgemntalism and an IRS agent playing God. I did not want to know any more about it.

That is a farce lads. 4 witnesses pick him out of a 4 man line up with 3 bulgarians and 1 scouser. They pick out the scouser. Of these 4 witnesses 2 of them say Shields threw the rock and 2 initially say he threw the punch. He can't be both of these people, therefore he can't have been either of these people.

There is no doubt about it usury is potentially evil when carried out by the wrong people. A lot of the high level financial people simply used it to make it look like they were very clever and making lots of money when in fact they were runnning the banks into the gorund. Would the world be any worse off if money lending did not exist.

I assume what the original poster is talking about is in a rural area, and by karma he doesn't actually mean karma, what he means is if I had a site off the parents and got a loan from the bank to build a fine big house but then couldn't keep up the repayments and had to move back in with the parents across the road, while some slick city type came along and bought the house for half of what it was worth leaving me still in debt to the bank. This might not be wise for the person who bought it as the old owner is unlikely to leave the area. In a big city people move away when they have to sell up, it is different in rural areas.

Was O'Garas kick that rolled over the top of the post with the scores level actually a score it seemed to deflect off the top of the post and hit the target. What about Marcus Horans intercepted pass tat helped save the game?

Terrible stuff lads. No way should that kid have been allowed to kill himself. Life is not long at all at the best of times. If people were willing to look after him he should ahve been allowed to live. How do you know he wasn't forced into the decision by people not wanting to look after him. The medical technology to cure paralysis is in develpment and this was a young guy who might have been able to benefit from such developments in the future.

Is Padraig worth a flutter at 20 to 1 lads. It looks a decent price for the most recent golfer to win 2 majors in a year. Will the course suit him?

It is usually only guilty people who don't answer questions. People with nothing to hide should be able to answer questions in order to clear things up and move the investigation along, why was Kate unable to do this? Saying "She didn't answer the questions because she is not an idiot" does imply that she may well have something to hide. I can't change the fact that you said that or what it means.

The thing is though, Kate is caught between a rock and a hard place on this one. It is her child that is missing and she is accused, if she does not co-operate with the police, she is the key witness after all, how does she expect the police to find her daughter. If she is guilty she still has to answer the questions or she will look as if she has something to hide. It is quite simple if she has nothing to hide simply answer the questions and walk away in 90 minutes.

"She didnt answer the questions because she is not an idiot." you seem to be implying that she is guilty. Oh I suppose the police are always trying to frame doctors with expensive legal teams and pr machines looking after them. Get real if they were trying to frame someone they would have gone afte the local Village idiot and hung him out to dry. They could not even get this woman to answer a few straight forward and simple questions relating to the disappearance of her own child. How can this be? kate McCann not answering any questions whether she is guilty or innocent stinks to high heaven. Behaving like she did in that police interview shold push most right thinking people into thinking that she might be guilty.

I am sorry but her daughter went missing, why would she not answer the questions? She could have answered those questions in an hour and a half and gone home instead of having an 11 hour standoff in the police station. again, why did she not answer the questions? Why would answering the questions have implicated her, if she was completely innocent? Did you read the questions, they look fairly damning on their own, the fact that kate refused to answer them does not really help her case. I have to say that if she was not guilty she should have answered the questions and nothing more could have come of it. Despite the spin being put on this by some of the British press this looks pretty damaging to the McCanns.

Crikey, some interview. I fail to see how the "right to silence" is ever helpful in bringing about justice. You should be left with the choice of telling the truth or lying, and liars are, more often than not, caught out.

However, I can see why she refused to answer. Whether guilty or innocent, those 48 questions had nothing to do with finding Maddie, and all to do with implicating Kate - therefore any lawyer would have told her to keep her mouth closed. If innocent, I don't think she'd have anything to gain by answering


No, that is called the police doing their job and interviewing a suspect. If they had arrested a known peadophile and they had refused to answer the questions would you say that is ok as they were simply trying to implicate him. Do you call sitting in a police station for 11 hours and refusing to answer any questions co-operating with the police. If the parents did not co-operate with the police, how do you expect them to find the child. She answered one bloody question. This will show how helpful she was to the police. The one question she answered.

Q.  Are you aware that in not answering the questions you are jeopardising the investigation, which seeks to discover what happened to your daughter?


A.  'Yes, if that's what the investigation thinks.'

This case gets strangere and stranger. The UK based DNA expert did not say it was not maddies DNA. He said"We cannot answer the question: is the match genuine, or is it a chance match?" I think that what that means reading between the lines is that it was a match.

It also sells more newspapers. I think you are wrong, the child is obviously dead. Why keep this story alive for so long?

Before the McCanns the media coverage of paedophilia was bordering on the fanatical in the tabloids.

It is just another news story to them. They do not care too much about the child. It has finally been dumped off the front page of the tabloids by a kinky sex murder in Italy of a British student. Are these the biggest most newsworthy stories worthy of a 48 page topic on GAA discussion board. I don't think they are. Why do the British tabloids give so much exposure to paedophiles? It seems to sell the papers but are there other reasons behind it?
