I have no idea what show you are talking about, and I certainly wouldn't want 19 kids, but unless they are living off of other people, and impacting others negatively, I don't think it is really anybodies fuggin business.

How many families could support 19 kids and not live off the dole? How much money does it take to support that size of a family........

I've seen it once when the wife was watching. They don't watch tv, but are on tv. That was weird to me because they are lifting up what they are forbidding their kids to watch. Maybe its just my point of view.

The other thing is that the last kid was born with some sort of defect. Maybe that will make them stop? The age of the parents had to have been a factor I'd think.

They're part of a sort of cult. There's a subsect of Christians who believe that you should have as many children as God will bless you with. You just keep having them until you can't anymore. Some can afford it, others can't. Anyone who watches this show will remember the Duggar's friends the Bates' who also practice this craziness. They visited them in their shanty of a house where 18 kids and 2 adults were living in a 1700 sqft house! They got donations and spent some of their TV money to build them a house that could hold them all, Extreme Makeover style.

The Duggar's are wackos, and remind me of people in Juniper Creek on Big Love.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
