Palmer or Newton? Palmer is on a pretty good streak and has a good history against San Fran. On the other hand, Nola's defense is shit and Newton could carve them up.

Sad Hawk Harrelson?
"I just wanna cuss."
Fuck you Hawk.
I still need to figure out which subdivision he lives in.

I irrationally like Prometheus as well, kind of like how I inexplicably liked Terminator Genisys. It has a ton of problems, but I like it.
People also like blood sausage.

Full Blown Meta: They play a 4-player TLC match with KOs active on No Mercy and HHH plays HHH with the burial animation.

Isn't that what people wanted? I loved it but a lot of people thought it was boring and needed more ALIEMZ.
Well, according to the interview I made reference to, you're still not going to get more aliens until the 3rd or 4th movie.
-
Whaaaaaaaat?
Riddley Scott has gone full blown crazy. He just did an interview saying the connection to Alien wouldn't happen until a 3rd or 4th (yeah...4th...) Prometheus movie. And now it's being called Alien: Paradise Lost? The fuck?

I would love for Cena to make an appearance, but I don't think he keeps up with current generations of consoles.
-
Yeah, on second thought, probably a bad idea to put this on the Network.

That you even have to QUESTION it is just...man...yeah, don't do that.
That also reminds me of a trade that was proposed to me. My buddy who just lost Romo really wants one of my four QBs (Peyton, Palmer, Taylor and Stafford). I need a RB bad. I'm 2-0, but my RB situation is not great. It's OK, but not much better than that. He has Lacy, Hill, Ivory, Bernard, Morris and Jones for his RBs. The trade he proposes is Taylor for Alex Smith and Benjamin, who he just picked up off the waiver wire. Fuck that. That's also a pet peeve, where someone grabs someone off the waiver wire and then tries to trade them. Yeah, no thanks. I proposed Peyton for Calvin Johnson and Hill just as a kind of "fuck your trade, here's my equally bad trade." I did send a text saying I would maybe consider throwing in Golden Tate.
As an added note, I did pick up James Starks off the waiver wire, but the rest of my RB picture is J-Stew, Ingram and Chris Johnson. Right now, I'm starting Starks and J-Stew, which feels like a mistake. Ingram feels like he should start again, but Nola is at Carolina. On the flip side of the coin, with the QB picture murky in Nola, I could see them relying on Ingram even more.

This really needs to be a show on the WWE Network that actually gets promoted.

In other NXT news that didn't feature "the red thing," the Asuka (Aska, Lord Steven?) death stare was awesome.
Overpronuncing/emphasizing the su in Asuka would be an Americanized pronunciation.
Beat me to it.
Looks like Rippa did too.

You don't even know where that fucking ring is anymore. It probably got lost trying to pull your head out of your ass.
These days, the Cards are just a gatekeeper to whoever will wind up winning the World Series. You may as well post the gif of Arnold Toht's head melting now just to get it out of the way.

Sandow is Sizzle. That one came to mind too.
By the way, holy shit, this made me like Sandow way more than WWE's crack writing staff ever did. Huh, what a shock, let a guy do his thing and he'll be entertaining.
And Tong Po's SFIV game is STRONG.
-
Titus is Big Deal.
Also, Miz is Moneymaker.
I love this channel so much. I spent way too much time over the last couple days watching it.
-
Fuck yeah! Win #20 for Arrieta, Bryant breaks the rookie home run record for the Cubs and has 98 RBI, and the magic number is 3. Good times.
-
So with another dominant pitching performance in the books for Jake, what chance does he have at the Cy Young?
-
More movies I really want to see because they have almost all of my favorite actors in it! This was a Kyle Chandler short of a Royal Flush.
There's also some really interesting directing choices lately, between Adam McKay directing this and Jay Roach directing Trumbo.

To me, it looks pretty obvious that it will be Brock vs Austin and Brock being on the Stone Cold Podcast looks to move that forward. Austin's explanation for the end of the Heyman podcast was about the lamest thing ever to cover up for a build up to Brock vs Austin. When Brock goes on Austin's podcast, you know for sure Austin going home instead of taking on Brock and how Austin treated Heyman will be brought up.

April weather is shit as well and weather is just going to get even crazier. I would prefer teams deal with the weather in late March and April, instead of November.
That brings to mind another issue, which is scheduling. The way seasons are scheduled now is awful.
-
If we go back to 2 leagues with 2 divisions each, then we have the division winners + 2 wild card teams, it could make sense. The biggest problem there is you'd want each division to have 8 teams. So you'd probably want 2 teams expanded in, and I don't think there are markets for that.
Well, like I said, either move the Astros back to the NL or move the Brewers back to the AL. 14 in one, 16 in the other.
-
I would prefer starting the season a week earlier instead of relying on double-headers to fit in a best 2 out of 3 games playoff.
I would also like to see best out of 7 for anything that isn't the WC game and that seems even less likely to happen.
-
The real question is "Who fucking cares if the game looks better if it still plays like shit"
Pretty much this. The graphics are marginally better, but there are definite cases that make you wonder how little effort went into skinning some of these models.
The same issue of relying on shitty mo-cap is present though, and when they're so focused on adding in even more shit, instead of tightening up issues from the previous release, you're going to keep seeing sub-par gameplay.

Two divisions? Cool, you're either completely eliminating a round of playoffs (which is never happening), rewarding the second best team in each division (no matter how good they are in respect to the rest of the league), or you're setting yourself up for a situation where the third-best team in the division gets in...which is the exact situation you're trying to avoid by realigning into two divisions?
Reseeding after the WC game is something I'd actually be in favor of. You still get rewarded for winning the division, but if you win a shitty division, you're losing HFA.
Except I'm fine with the best team in each division making it in, then determining the rest via record, even if it means 4 teams make it from the East and 1 team from the West. You can either seed all of those teams by record, leading to a potential West winner, in this scenario, in a one-game playoff, or have something like this:
Move the Astros back to the NL and have even East and West divisions for each league. You keep a one game or 2/3 games WC playoff. If you look at the NL, you're left with the Cardinals (West winner), Pirates (East winner), Cubs (Playoff spot #3), Dodgers (Playoff spot #4), and Mets (Playoff spot #5). Dodgers and Mets would be the WC game. In the AL, you would have Royals (West winner), Blue Jays (East winner), Yankees (Playoff spot #3), Rangers (Playoff spot #4), and Twins (Playoff spot #5). Rangers and Twins play each other in the WC. Then you seed by record. In each case, the WC is played between two teams with worse records than the teams in front of them. Could you get a season where you have a division won by a team with a record worse than a WC team? It's certainly possible, but even if that's the case, you're at least not rewarding the second best team in that division.
I don't know, there's no perfect solution for this, but the current system is shit compared to many other solutions.
