  1. I am afraid to turn on my PS4 until they fix the 2.0 rest mode thing. Poor PS4. It better be fixed before AC comes out next week.
  2. Yea no kidding. At 5-3 the Bills have very little wiggle room, they have to beat the Chiefs/Jets/Dolphins of the world if there is a chance. Can't expect to beat the Packers/Pats/Broncos.
  3. Disagree, first time offenders for this type of thing usually just get probation or community service, athlete or not. Way too lazy to look up statistics but this random non-famous person was on the first page of a google search so he will have to do as an example. Parents generally don't get thrown in jail for going too far with corporal punishment as a first time offense unless the child was almost killed/had serious injuries, I see it in the local paper on a regular basis. The issue that AD has right now is that all this time, he was getting paid. If it had been a non-paid suspension, I'd say that he had done his time or close to it. But since he has been paid all this time he still needs a suspension, likely for the rest of the year. If this falls under the new domestic abuse suspension rule he should get six games anyway that would effectively end his season.
  4. I am all for trading 'high' but I think Ben is still too much of a fluke. But there is probably some poor sap out there that is still starting Flacco, so you never know.
  5. I guess I meant fade out gracefully, not still doing the "big announcement next week!" thing or potentially going to a much lower TV station. Just put on a big show in Nashville and call it a day.
  6. I was explaining to my brother what was happening in TNA and about their last PPV, and he asked "Why does TNA still exist?" I mean that's a pretty good question.... they don't have the money anymore to get popular wrestlers, they can't tour, they've failed at everything they've tried to stand out and now they lost Spike. They really should just fade away.
  7. Somewhat related, I had issues playing the newest Infamous because I thought the protagonist was a giant douchebag. People have to be able to like the main character in some way (either because they are a badass, looking for revenge, funny, sympathetic, etc.), if you don't like the character you are controlling it makes the game a lot less fun. I haven't read up much about Sunset Overdrive since I don't have an Xbox One yet, but if that is people's argument then I understand it.
  8. Can't beat $19 for the Fire Stick, I just ordered one to pop into my TV at work. One of the many benefits of working the overnight shift.
  9. Right after complimenting my lil Moto G, I go and pre-order a OnePlus One. Not sure if that makes me a hypocrite but it dues further my opinion that new cell phones should be affordable and unlocked. I guess 'affordable' just depends on the person but I'd think most people would agree that $750 for a new iPhone is a lot of money.
  10. The price/contract is what killed it for sure. There are plenty of people like me that want a smart phone but don't want to be tied to an expensive two year contract, I love my little Moto G I got for $80, its not for everyone but I think Amazon would have been better off not trying to challenge the top of the line phones but trying to find their own little market somewhere. Kinda surprising to find a company that has successfully challenged large companies before fail so epically.
  11. My PS3 controller literally last week stopped holding the charge. It works only if it is plugged in. All things eventually die.
  12. Oh... no one told you? Rule #1 of car payments - soon as you get it paid off, something epic will break on the car within two weeks. So don't make any big plans with that extra money yet

    2014 G1 Climax

    I think all the G1 Climaxes from the last decade or so were pretty easy to find, hell I remember purchasing the 2004 G1 Climax complete soon after it came out and youtube/DM have been around for a good while now (we are old). I think it is more because there are a lot more matches now than there used to be. On one hand more matches is exhausting, but percentage-wise it gives the tournament a much better chance at having a 'stand out' match. This year there were 111 G1 Climax matches. In 1992 (just for example) there were 15. So if 5% of the matches this year were 'great' and 10% of the 1992 matches were 'great', the 2014 version would still win by a margin of 5.5 to 1.5 in terms of the number of great matches. I guess what I am saying is that with sooo many matches there are bound to be some great matches, and since people can pick and choose the matches they want to see (most people aren't dumb enough like me to watch literally every single match), they are only seeing the great matches. If you choose 10 matches from 2014 to watch and 10 matches from 1992 to watch, the 2014 version is going to win. So to answer your question I don't think its availability, I think it is quantity.
  14. Looks like they will keep rolling out characters, they announced Mewtwo for the spring. He is free if you own both versions of the game, no word on what he costs if you don't.
  15. Yea I've heard good things about the game, but those trailers are something else. I'm not offended, it just does absolutely nothing to make me want to play the game.
  16. I'm gonna feel like an asshole if I end up playing Denard Robinson in a WR slot next week since Yahoo has him as a RB/WR. But I PLAY TO WIN THE GAME. Sportsmanship be damned.
  17. That Bills victory must be the ugliest win of the season. Four turnovers, lost both RBs in the first half, and six sacks and still somehow win. Glad we were playing the Vikings and not someone good.
  18. Today I met a Llama. His name is Walker. He did not spit on me so now we are friends.
  19. For those fans of indy wrestling, GENTARO came back last spring after being out for two years after having a stroke. I finally got a chance to watch one of his matches (from September), and he looks really healthy. He appears to have bulked up, and even though I don't think he was ever the best wrestler in the world its nice to see someone return from that type of health issue to his old form.
  20. I'm really surprised they put the belt back on Tanahashi. He must be the only person they think can draw that the Tokyo Dome as I had assumed all along that either way Okada is winning the belt back then. Just further proves that Tanahashi is still the #1 ace of the promotion and the wrestler they will always fall back on if needed. Wonder where this leaves Styles going forward. Nice to see Naofumi Yamamoto come back. I think he has been away too long to gain a lot of traction in the promotion at this point but at least he gets to have some matches back 'home' before fading into the sunset.
  21. Yo Rippa, with Cruz out you think Randle or Beckham will be a better points-getter? I assume that Randle will get more catches but Beckham has more of the 'big game' potential. Tough life decisions.
  22. I thought that Shadow of Mordor was a great game, but the ending..... Still a game I'd recommend to anyone, aside from that complaint.
  23. I'm looking at this puppy: http://www.xoticpc.com/sager-np7338-clevo-w230ss-p-6992.html?wconfigure=yes Just depends on what you use it for. I need mine because I make blu-rays often enough that having to plug in an external drive that often would annoy me. I don't use it for watching movies at all anymore, just making them. But if you use one sometimes, just be sure to check the prices on them so you can add that to whatever the cost of the laptop is.
  24. Drafting Watt is probably the smartest thing I ever did in my entire life.
  25. I am just waiting for injury reports, don't get too excited, I won't forget
