thanks for all the info guys!! I'll give Men's warehouse a call and start talking to some people locally about reputable tailors.

I've had to deal with the same sort of thing for a long time. One thing the powerlifters do to look sharp is what I refer to as "military pleats." You take the side seams of the …

you should also have luck wtih l.l. bean and land's end.

Mens Express 1MX solid color shirts right now, $29.99 They are very nice, modern fit (more tailored like) and hold up well. If it fits well, DO NOT DRY it in the dryer, or it wil…

I was just buying myself some shirts in Macy's and saw a few in your size. They have tons of brands many of which have "slim fit" styles that would probably work well for you. Oh…

I haven't been in Express men for years. I used to shop there, but if I remember correctly, their stuff used to shrink on me pretty badly. I'll give them a look and maybe just ai…

I wanted the Steelers to win. I'm a Steelers fan. I don't care for most things originating in Seattle. NEVERTHELESS, the game was fixed. It was embarrassing how many calls were…

The most BS call was when they gave Ben the TD. Theres no way the line judge saw that well enough to call it. Had the ruling on the field been no TD, it would have stood after re…

Yep. Calls seemed suspect. And I make a better noise than the Rolling Stones... ...on my own (think cymbals strapped to legs and bass drum on back).

I don't think it was "FIXED" as many conspiracy theorists suspect. One of the reasons is bad calls WILL happen you still have to make plays. When your receiver is dropping a bunc…

Officials are compensated, although it is only like $25,000/year for a 1st year official. Like SpaceMonkey said, most (if not all) NFL officials have other full-time jobs and only…

in fact the officials for the Super Bowl are well compensated. Heard an interview just last Friday regarding this . . . EACH member of the officials team get $25K for the Super Bo…
