Obviously more private research has been conducted, but it would pale in comparison if the NIH granted money to conduct more medicinal research.

O don't even get me started on Medical costs and pharmaceutical companies lol you might just want to change the thread title at that point. That conversation may be best saved for PM or offtopic discussion. I think were a bit off topic here and need to return the conversation to the 2014-1015 football season!

Sad thing is a few years ago they were not a horrible team, Sanchez took em to the playoffs that defense was phenomenal, they just collapsed.

Honestly as much as I love his meanness on field if he does not show significant improvement and increased sack numbers I hope hes gone.

I have never seen an example of what you are talking about other than with the Jets/Titans this season.

Its just how the rotation goes sometimes.

Ok im lookin at the titans sched for 2016 & 2017 1 of your "finish place games" is at afc east.
If titans & jets both finish 2nd in 2015 its titans at jets in 2016.
If titans & jets both finish 2nd in 2016 its titans at jets in 2017....again.

It doesnt always happen every yr but does happen this yr & that example will happen then too.

They rank by 18-49 which is what most advertisers base their $$ on.

NCIS has a big audience but doesnt do well with that younger group.

You could say that about practically all CBS shows outside Big Bang and HIMYM, since CBS crushed the other networks this season in total viewers but ended up third in the demo behind NBC and Fox.

I would have to see other examples of this for me to believe that's how it works. As I've said, I've seen it alternate as I've desrcibed multiple times. I've never seen it happen the way you've described other than this year with the Titans/Jets.

HAHA wow so they got a safety and a field goal and won the game, EJ Manuel did them good! Guess that offseason really helped him learn to move that ball.

LOL at Marshawn Lynch skipping the white house just like it's another media appearance. He's like the Pearl Jam of the NFL.

The guy hates to be on camera for interviews or put in the spotlight. Someone posted on here of him breaking someones cell phone just for taking a picture. You cant fault the guy if he truly does not want the media spotlight.

Social anxiety will do that to a person. At least he's consistent.

2011 bills & chiefs finished last so in 2012 bills were at chiefs
2012 bills & chiefs finished last so in 2013 bills were at chiefs again

Like i said it doesnt happen alot, cause not only do the 2 teams have to finish in the same place 2 yrs on row + have that place schedule game to be against that same division, but it does happen.

I figured maybe one of those seasons the teams played each others' divisions, but it appears you're right.

But I'm confused why it only happens that way sometimes... because like I said in 2009 we faced the Steelers (because we were both 1st place teams) in Pittsburgh, and in 2010 we faced them again (because we were both 3rd place teams) in Nashville. That is the only way I've ever seen it happen until now.
