New Eli Manning DirecTV Commercial

Please don't forget that Starr won five championships, they just weren't called Super Bowls until the merger.

The problem here isn't that you railroad, it's that you think your only viable alternative is the Bears! Look north, ye olde Green Bay Acme Packers have had much success and are a joy to watch (though not much of a joy for a Bears fan, I'd reckon)

Plenty of success up there at Lambeau...just not when the Giants visit in January. 

What is it that makes others think model train guys are some sort of troll? I have had friends, co-workers, strangers, etc be dumbfounded that I am into trains. The most common response is "but you're such a normal guy". 

Like it or not YOU are all TRAIN NERDs, me included!!!!

I put advertising in with bankers, lawyers and politicians.  Usually it's mislabeled and fairly mis-leading.

But my favorite commercial is the Miller Lite where the karaoke guy is buying beer and sings "Carry On My Wayward Son".

Not far behind is any of the Dollar Shave Club commercials.

As far as people looking at me funny or calling me a nerd when they find out I play with toy trains....

Let's see where that ranks with:

- constantly looking at a phone or texting someone in the same room

- spending hours on your Facebook or Tweeter (sp) acct so you can embarrass yourself to the internet with some photo or inappropriate comment you have to retract

- spending hours to hone your motor skill coordination on a video game

- re-living someone else's sports efforts because your lack of talent or weight

   prevents you from competing

- participating/following in a FANTASY league ( football, baseball, basketball...)

- blogging on the internet for a cause no one gives a ---- about

- taking chemicals or liquids to escape your reality

- being able to quote line for line TV episodes or movie dialogue

- reading, digesting and organizing your database of soap opera, TV drama latest     info

- watching/following DWTS, The Voice, The Batchelor, any MTV type show (except Ridiculousness)

- camping out in line for a movie ticket, concert ticket, sports ticket, Black Friday sale

- collecting beanie babies, rocks, coins, stamps, antiques, artwork, antique cars, watches, shoes, dishes, baseball cards, your prized motorcycle, covering your body with tattoos or piercings, sports memorabilia, big game trophies,.....it is a long list

- going to garage sales every week to buy someone else's junk (trains excluded)

It looks like everybody has THEIR thing.

So yeah, you might catch me playing with trains or watching trains on the side of the road.  Maybe reading a train magazine, following this forum, or going to a train show.

I can live with that.

I am a little confused so maybe someone can explain this to me but what is this term Quarterback?
