I have actually been there it is not as nice as the photos. There are alot beach's that you cannot go to because of the rip current and it is always crowded. It's pretty much just like Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Except for the Luao's they were kinda cool.

You must've been on Oahu... Maui's where it's at. Oahu (and to a lesser degree Hawai'i) are way overdeveloped.

Huh? You get out of Honolulu?

Outside of Honolulu it's really nice I went to Honolulu, Kuai, and Maui. Maui was extremely nice, it had all of the nice beaches and stuff. Great Snorkeling, and stuff like that. But the Luao was cool because you had all these animals running around like peacocks and other weird animals, and they cooked the pig in the fire pit, that was really interesting.

Pretty cool of Pep to do.

Ditto!

I have been to Hawaii. My wife and i could have gone to any of the islands, but went to Oahu by choice. Yes it probably is overdeveloped, but it's not unlike being in any major city and suburb in the USA proper. I have lived in, and traveled to, a fair amount of cities including New York, Philly, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Atlanta, St. Louis, Chicago and Detroit, and I can tell you that Honolulu is not as crowded as any of these places. My wife, in particular, enjoys being around people, cultural happenings and amenities, where as I prefer to be in a more laid back setting. Oahu is more commercialized, but there are enough quiet spots on the island, that one can experience peace and serenity (particularly in the North Shore area). To me it's the best of both worlds. It is truly a beautiful place, and I plan to go back someday. If I could get my wife to agree, I may move to the Big Island because there is very cheap (as in $10,000) real estate, if you are willing to risk being in an area on a volcano. I don't know about the covenants, but I was thinking about putting up one of those cheap alternative houses and just live a Bohemian existence.

But, excuse my rambling. Suffice it to say that I love Hawaii, and if Julius Peppers is giving his buddies a trip there, then it just shows that he has some heart (though not the kind some may like).

      No doubt.  I was at the game watching it and it looked like a fly ball to the infield.  It got in the air and just hung up.  XL tracked it like a shortstop.

      You need to go outside and get some fresh air.

      Sorry, I don't get the "mental" thing at all. If his football IQ was as low as you say it is, then he wouldn't be out there blocking as well as he is.  It is quite possible that he's been pressing due to not really being in the flow of the game because Bryce doesn't look for him on the regular. His strength, at the moment, seems to be as a mismatch in the slot on crossers and slants in my opinion,and for whatever reason (maybe height) Bryce is more likely going to chuck it to the sidelines. So, in a sense, maybe Legette and Bryce aren't a good pairing, and that gives the appearance that Legette is not all there. Lord knows that Bryce doesn't seem to be able to hit receivers in stride so they can maximize YAC. But anyway...all that being said, I thought that X would be more than just a possession type of guy. So we'll see where it goes from here. I'm not like some, who appear not to see the value in a guy who can kill you like that, and kill you just as well as guys that do their best work on the outside, but, X is going to have to be able to consistently hands-catch on the run and separate better at the top of the route if he really wants to unlock his potential as an all-around receiver. If Bryce could consistently and accurately hit receivers, especially in seams on the slants and crossers, it would open up Legette and the offense. Just my opinion, but I think he causes all the receivers to press to varying degrees, and causes the coaches to call plays that have built-in limitations, but I could be wrong about that.
