This.

It's why I can believe that we should have known about 9/11 before hand, and probably had some of the intelligence, but we weren't listening to the right people. But I'll never believe that a) we killed/faked the people on the plane, b) we snuck demolition experts into the buildings and put in bombs c) we made a controlled demolition NOT look like a controlled demolition, but just enough like one that it spawns theories, and d) when a fire fighter says "pull it" he's using demolition lingo. Too many people, too many coverups. Unless they're all dead, someone would have told.

The Patriots beating the Rams in the Super Bowl after 9/11, Boston winnig the World Series and the Saints getting better after Katrina are 3 of the greatest sports cover ups ever known.

Tiger Woods is the 3rd coming of God (Jordan was the 2nd)

I agree all of those seem odd, but if they are true why didn't Favre go to the Super Bowl, win, and then retire? And what about the Cubs never winning the World Series?

You talking about Boston coming back from 3-0 to the Yankees and winning the WS?

Haha, come on.......

There was no conspiracy in that. There wasn't even any questionable calls in the games that I can remember. They straight beat them down 4 games in a row.....aided by one of the most clutch players of our generation.

Or there's so much out there constantly that it's really hard to tell what will materialize into a real threat. That may be what you meant by not listening to the right people, but I wasn't sure.

I think it's really hard to tell who is crying wolf, who simply wants to seem like a player but is actually a wannabe (some of the Americans arrested in terrorists plots since 9-11 might be in this group), what's just crazy ranting, and what's really going to go down. I'm kind of amazed we ever have good intelligence.

I think that we may have had the knowledge at some level but the intelligence services were so competitive instead of cooperative that that information never would have gotten passed along. I'm not saying that Bush knew and didn't say a word.
