Should you rate a player on how far he throws, how how fast he runs or rate him by his game film? but it obviously affects the player on what round he might get drafted, thats for sure.
How important is the NFL columbine?
It is soooo over-hyped. Just because someone puts up good numbers at the combine, it does not necessarily mean they will be a star in the NFL like in college.
Reply:Well it's combine XD Columbine was a tragic school shooting. I'd say it's fairly important, but not all that matters. I mean, Brady looked terrible at his combine and look where he is now.
Reply:the combine is a good tool to use for breaking ties you have for certon players. If you have players A and B at the same position tied as far as how much u like him u can break that tie bye things like speed and power and wonderlick tests depending on what position hes playing.
Reply:It's kind of important. Teams in the NFL draft based on accuracy and arm strength. Sometimes, the combine isn't accurate. Look at Tom Brady, he was drafted in the 6th round and he goes on to lead the Patriots to 3 super bowl wins.
Reply:its pretty important, it is used in combination with game film because if the player has the physical tools to succeed then they might be worth more than someone who dose not have the tools to succeed on the next level but did good in collage
Reply:i think it is like half and half you got to at least know what potential you can have. that allows teams to see if a guy is worth trading up for.just look at trent edwards last year. you know you can call me bad but id do just enough to get in so i wouldnt go to a sorry or rebuilding teamid take my chances with a winner.and then after winning for a few years id go for the money.
Reply:Columbine? That was the school where those 2 gothic meatheads shot and killed a bunch of kids.
Do you mean the Combines?
Reply:i would say it is over-hyped, but in the NFL u need skill and athleticism, Cromartie of the chargers would have been drafted much lower, although i was one of the few after seeing him in the combine that was DAMN!!! i want that guy, and look how it's turned out, but never put too much on the combine, the guy has to have intangibles ( Ryan leaf is an EX who didn't)
Reply:Is the columbine where angry college athletes get together to shoot at the coaches?
Or did you mean COMBINE?
It's a little different....just thought you should know.
It is useful, for measuring physical ability..... but it is way overrated, since it can't measure drive, motor, instincts, etc.
Plus, most of the top prospects don't even work out anymore. They are too scared it might hurt their draft status. Same reason most opt out of the Sr. Bowl.
Personally, I feel both should be mandatory. But I think they shouldn't be as important as game film.
Reply:Dick cheney threw it the farthest but he went undrafted and went on to a great career
Reply:The combine gives coaches and scouts a general idea of a players abilities. Teams go over everything before a player is drafted, game film, how they performed at the combine, personal workouts, attitude, work ethic, everything.
Reply:i believe its combine
Reply:really important because not all the scouts go to each players indivitual game this it the time where all the scouts can see ur talant

What happened to the teens involved in the Columbine Massacre?
Do you mean Klebold and Harris?
They are dead but famous and infamous
Some suriviors appeared in Mike Moore's Bowling for Columbine
The rest probably just went on with their lives
One bad day should not ruin someone's life
What happened to the teens involved in the Columbine Massacre?
They killed themselves
Reply:They committed suicide...see below for full story
After leaving the library, the pair went into the science area and threw a small fire bomb into an empty storage closet. When the bomb exploded, they ran off. A teacher in the adjacent room put out the fire. They then proceeded towards the South Hallway, stopped, and began shooting into an empty science room (SCI-8) at the end of the hall. Next, they went down the staircase into the cafeteria where they were first caught by the security cameras. The recording shows Harris attempting to detonate one of the failed propane bombs, without success; he then took a sip from one of the drinks left behind by fleeing students. Another Molotov cocktail was thrown, but it too failed. The two then left the cafeteria and went back up the stairs. As they did so, the cocktail exploded (this can be seen in the security tapes) causing a fire that was extinguished by the fire sprinklers; they left the cafeteria at around 11:50 a.m. Once back on the upper level, they walked around the main North and South Hallways of the school without any direction, shooting aimlessly. They walked through the South Hallway, past the Social Studies section, and into the main office before proceeding back onto the North Hallway. Several times they looked through the small windows on the classroom doors and even made eye contact with students, but never attempted to enter the rooms. After leaving the main office, the pair went up to a bathroom entrance and began taunting students inside, saying such things as "we know you're in there" and "let's kill anyone we find in here", but never actually entering the bathroom. At 11:55 a.m., the two returned to the Cafeteria and entered the kitchen briefly, only to return back up the staircase, and into the South Hallway, at 11:58 a.m..
Deaths of the shooters
35. Eric Harris (gunman) committed suicide by a single shot to the head.
36. Dylan Klebold (gunman) committed suicide by a single shot to the head.
At 12:05 p.m. the shooters entered the library again, but it was empty of all living students except for the unconscious Patrick Ireland and Lisa Kreutz (who played dead). It is not known what they did between the time they left the cafeteria and the time they re-entered the library. Once inside, they attempted to shoot out the windows at policemen, without success. They then moved over to the table next to where Matthew Kechter and Isaiah Shoels lay; there, they shot themselves, committing suicide. At 2:38 p.m., Patrick Ireland regained consciousness and crawled over to the windows, where he attempted to exit. He was then taken out of the school through the library windows by SWAT team members, in a famously televised scene. Lisa Kreutz remained injured in the library until police entered the scene at 3:25 p.m.; she was then removed, along with Ms. Nielson, Brian Anderson, and the three staff.

There is one girl, I can't remember her name...sorry, she wrote a book about the whole ordeal.

Is Columbine and Cardinal Climber atracting to HUMMINGBIRDS?
I bought their seeds and need to know if they atract HUMMINGBIRDS! Can anyone tell me if they are and possibly some facts about HUMMINGBIRDS and plants they adore the most?
Is Columbine and Cardinal Climber atracting to HUMMINGBIRDS?
Cardinal climber is, columbine is not a great attractor. The like zinnias a lot, petunias, trumpet vines, and morning glories are all good.
Reply:any of the salvias, trumpet vines, hostas, honeysuckle, I've seen them around petunias also

What is the position or attitude on the documentary Bowling For Columbine?
Do you mean the attitude of the movie or our attitude towards the movie? For the former I'd say subjectively political on the part of the vial filmmaker. As for the latter, I'd say it was beneath it all unfeeling and disrespectful towards those to whom the tragedy befell.

It is clear enough what he is getting at. Mr Moore is not especially subtle about making a point.

Harvesting seeds from columbine plants?
The flowers have faded and pods are left. Do I let them dry on the plant or open the pods and place in a bag? I opened one pod and see several green seeds (I think they are seeds!).
Harvesting seeds from columbine plants?
Leave them to dry naturally until well into the autumn!The seeds are green because they're unripe,leave them to dry,then store in an airtight container for sowing next spring.
Columbines (Aquilegias) cross pollinate,so the seedlings will differ from the original plant.
Reply:Best to let them dry, and once they start to split, pick them carefully and shake the seed into a clean container for storage and/ or replanting
Reply:The seeds are black when dry. I have success cutting the plant down to the basal foilage and laying the cut plant on the ground where I want the seeds to be when they dry and the pods open; they plant themselves this way.
Reply:I wait until they dry up then put them in a bag and plant them the following year, I have had much success that way.

Reply:Very rarely will I agree with what Bush says, but this time I agree.
Whenever we have second thoughts on a person's attitude, we should do what is right, investigate.
Don' just pass it off and let it ride.
I am quite sure that you will see more attention given now to the behavior pattern of students.
This will open up a whole new field of opportunity for teacher's assistants who will be trained and provide the needed insight as to the condition each student is in.
I can see this happening real soon.
Reply:Something can be done but I think that it would be really difficult. Schools should check the kid's lockers and backpacks, make psychological evaluation to students and put those thing that they have in airports and government offices where they can detect if you carry a gun, a knive or something harmful. Colleges should have to check in regulary the dorms of the students, put those things to detect guns and knives and make psychological evaluation of students.
Reply:sadly these things can not be avoided completely.....as long as people have access to guns we are never safe.........the only way to be safe is to ban guns or any weapons but we cant do thatbecause how will we protect ourselves against enemies
Reply:You can't. There will always be some with defective brains. This one used two pistols. McVay used explosives. Many are getting ideas from watching the News about strapping explosives to their bodies are blowing themselves up in a crowd.
Who would suspect a person in a big winter coat in a crowded hockey arena ?
If a person is known to have a few loose screws, nothing can be done unless, or until he breaks the law - - - - and then it's too late.
Reply:God-WE CANT. Thats like asking how can we keep a bank from being robbed again or a car from being stolen again. Crimes happen.
There is not no one thing that can be done to keep school or workplace shootings from happening. All of the metal detectors, all of the gun laws, all of that is not gonna be able to stop someone on a suicide mission.
Granted, there are things we can do to help protect schools, but to make them 100% safe-it will never happen.
Reply:I don't think there is much. I know someone who went to school with one of the kids from Columbine and he said even at 9 you knew there was something just not right about him. Kids don't feel like they fit in. Until people care more about others before something bad happens it will still happen.
Reply:Love and Humbless.
Reply:The answer, is you can't. If you try to take guns off the street, it will bring up issues with the constitution. Taking guns off the streets seems like the best way to prevent these things, were it not impossible. Even if people were not allowed to own a guns, people would smuggle them in from Mexico, and sell them on the street, like drugs. Police officers could be put on duty at all schools, but even a cop can get shot. There are two otherr problems with police officers being put on duty at schools, people would make a fuss that they shouldn't be put on duty at private schools, making them the new targets, and in universities like Virginia Tech, there are more than one building, over a hundred, so it would require many police officers to be on duty at universities. These tragedies are horrible, yet law enforcers d othe best they can to stop these things all together. Lock downs work for high schools and middle schools and elementary schools, but for universities, they would be a waste of time. These events sadden us, and enrage us, but there is not much we can do. No matter how hard we try, there are always psychotic lunatics that will go crazy, get a gun, and shoot people.
Reply:When any one person is neglected by all, they become depressive and moody. This causes further neglect because no one wants to be around that person, for fear of it affecting their own mood. Thus, the person is further ostracized. It becomes a cyclical effect, and eventually can lead to suicide barring action on anyone else's part.
As for the killing aspect, I believe that it occurs when certain people who are so far out of the social loop want to take away that feeling of loneliness before they die. They literally are killing others so that when they die, they are joined by others.
This sounds horrible, but it is the truth of what is going on. As this question will likely receive some answers condemming Cho as a Satanist and other terrible things, you will understand that it is people who do not care about others, that create those who turn to death as the final solution.
So in short, if this is to be prevented, people need to reach out to the loners and help them before it is too late. Sadly though, humanity and its tragic flaws will now allow this to occur.
Reply:Invoke the second ammendment, allow any person with a gun license to carry a firearm with them at all times. If someone is homicidal, they will think twice about going on a shooting rampage like VT and Columbine if the people they intend to kill are able to defend themselves.
Reply:We can't. They have occurred periodically since the 1950's; the first to galvanize the media was the Texas sniper - 41 years ago.
