You sure? I think people forget that Vince got over Austin several times.

I think South Park is like old school Family Guy in that reruns do really well in ratings (compared to most reruns). It is good background for me, I probably re-watch South Park from the start at least every two or three years.

Every negative situation - Cartman fighting with his mom, Stan's family at the dinner table and the conclusion- was solved with guns in everybody's hands. Nobody was shot, not even by accident, with tension at a fever pitch. Perhaps I misread it, but it was poorly orchestrated. The larger point is that it's not really even a show anymore. It's too predictable and not funny. You can literally watch the news and forecast what South Park is going to be about. Bill Cosby rape accusations? Yep. Trayvon Martin? You betcha. Redskins lose their trademark. Oh yeah. And on and on and on... I want Cartman to risk his friend's life just so he can go to Casa Bonita, Randy fighting other fathers at Stan's baseball games and Butters as a pimp. That's what made the show great for so many years. I just want a mix of that. I don't mind the topical episodes but I want the goofy funny episodes that focus on the kids too. This season was just too driven by the political and current events for me, I just would have liked a 'break' every few episodes.

It felt like they could have used one more episode, about ten minutes into the finale I had no idea how they were going to wrap up everything so fast. I also wish there was somewhere in the last few episodes more of a 'normal' SP episode but still in the storyline, like the Yelp episode with Cartman. The last few just flew through a plot that didn't seem fully fleshed out. I agree with whomever said that it felt like when they made episode one they didn't have episode ten planned yet, which SP normally doesn't but if there is a strict season-long plot is a bit more necessary. I don't care about politics or whose side they are on, I just want to be amused. I am a simple man

I guess since I am not seeing it until the 22nd I best start avoiding this thread pretty soon. Aside from trailers I know next to nothing about it and I'd like to keep it that way

I am really not sure how to feel about that season. There were some good jokes and parts for sure, and I enjoyed it, but I am not a big fan of having one storyline that lasts the entire season. I think that was done better last season, where it was a continuing story but each episode still felt like it could be enjoyed without seeing all the other episodes. It was more strange than great. I understand after 19 seasons they want to do different things but in a lot of ways it didn't feel like South Park by the end, the kids almost had different roles in some episodes. But it felt like in parts the humor was sacrificed to tell the story they wanted to tell, which was fine but didn't seem special enough to sacrifice some laughs. The final episode wasn't really funny and only a few times went for legit laughs, it was more of a drama with the South Park characters with more "ironic" humor (finding it easier to talk when holding guns for example) than what I would expect. I guess I'd give it a solid 7/10 as some of the episodes were really funny, but I am currently binge-watching South Park and it doesn't touch the first six seasons (where I currently am) to me.

Chihiro Hashimoto being on there is cool, she has been really fun to watch in the two matches I've seen of hers this year. She just debuted in the Fall.

The only good thing about the NFC East being shitty, is the next three Bills opponents are from the NFC East (not sure why they are all back to back). If they don't win at least two of the three I am going to be disappoint. Not completely surprised, but still disappoint. That game last night was one of the worst I've sat and watched in years.

I am sad I have to watch this game due to all the FFL implications.

I think people put too much stock in the Tokyo Sports Awards. They are fun to look at but they never are legit, they like to go with what is popular or different. Clearly the tag team of the year is the super bizarre one this year, no way is that justified, but they love them some Onita.

The DVDVR pay league is a fun mess. My basic math tells me to make the playoffs I need to of course win, and McFadden has to get about four more points than Dan Bailey. Don't ask me to explain, my head hurts.

Yea, which would have set up a much more exciting 'end of the game' then what we got. They almost recovered the re-do also.

Wasn't watching, so no comment. But now the announcers are talking about it. Quick visual:

You guys like talking about bad referee calls, that call in the UNC/Clemson game with the phantom offsides was among the worst I have seen all year. They weren't within a yard of being offsides, I have no idea what the referee was looking at.

If you didn't watch any wrestling with wrestlers accused of anything illegal, you'd have to find a new hobby

If Akebono wants to go to a promotion that won't have TV and runs one show every four months, I encourage that.

It is a borderline call, but Lions fans should be more mad about, you know, a Hail Mary working. Which is inexcusable in professional football (I can buy it in college maybe twice a year).

He wasn't white in this case, may want to wait until the facts come out before making baseless assumptions. Not that that should matter in a mass murder, but people from all sides using this to immediately push an agenda is a bit much. At least wait until we know what happened.

I have mixed feelings about it. I almost hate watching college football now as I swear I watched one that had four straight plays that the referees looked at replay. It just slows the game down to a crawl, if every penalty call/non-call was challenged the games would drag. As much as I think the referees are bad (I don't actually mind most the things they do as I think its normal keeping 'human error' in mind and that we wouldn't know either without super slow motion sometimes, but the time and rulebook mess-ups are a bit over the top), I don't want games lasting over four hours each either.

You forgot to say that even if you swapped them both in you still would have lost. I'm just sayin'.

He'd have say but not ultimate say, the most he would have is a solid way to express his opinion since he is on the board. But owners can always overrule presidents I still think its work anyway, I mean its wrestling.

They get them eventually, I've had items delayed quite a bit but I always get what I ordered at some point. I already have my La Sombra shirt so I'm good.

No offense to Jags or Titan fan(s) but tonight's game couldn't possibly be less interesting to a casual fan. I know every team had to get one but some of these match-ups are a bit lacking.

You have to give HHH credit, he is really trying to sign talent from wherever they can get it. So far it is just making NXT better but hopefully down the road it will lead to a shift on RAW/SD/PPV too. Maybe five years down the road but at least there is some effort there by someone to bring in fresh wrestlers.

That's the nicest thing Mayweather has ever said about someone he was 'feuding' with, I mean it wasn't perfect but still. He took the oddly high road on that one.
