@TimCouchFanatic:
If he were a class-act he would do his best to make Orton look good. Imagine how he could cash in by having a great year with a poor QB. But no, he's a big nancy instead.
I think that these SF books prove the point that technology advancement is slowing down. Things were changing so fast in the early to mid 1900's that people extrapolated that out to the end of the century. To go from horses to cars to planes in 50-60 years was a huge jump. If I lived back then I would have assumed we would be flying Jetson-mobiles around by 2000 too. Its sort of disappointing actually. Perhaps we have hit a technological wall.
@Pants_McCracky: Great point! Half the country is still in 1959 if you ask me. I was in San Jose last week, and it looked like an episode of Happy Days.
