  1. Doesn't matter. Pick one and then send it to me.
  2. What happened to that dude who had 200 yards rushing for the Patriots two weeks ago? Late for practice means you never play again? C'mon Bill.
  3. Dear God why? Running back in decline, coming off a career worst season and hasn't played all season, plus, you know, HE KNOCKED HIS FIANCE OUT COLD IN A FUCKING ELEVATOR AND THEN DRAGGED HER UNCONSCIOUS BODY AROUND LIKE IT WAS A SACK. I'd much rather wait for Bush to get healthy, especially given how Bell seems to be starting to find a groove and Theo Riddick developing into a decent pass catching back. (At least Bush only theoretically said he might abuse his child...) Yeah, I don't get it either
  4. Congrats James!
  5. They don't have nine cupcake games on their schedule anymore and don't have Tom Osborne cheating like crazy. So, yeah, the days of Nebraska winning 11 games every year are probably over.
  6. My Facebook feed is loaded with Lions fans that want Detroit to sign him.
  7. Hey look, Detroit won a shootout. Great comeback from 4-1 down to tie and win.
  8. Michigan has unretired all of their retired jersey numbers. They assign them to the top guy at any given position and then that guy wears a patch honoring the guy whose number he's wearing. This is different than the #1 jersey, which has been given to the top WR for over a decade in honor of Anthony Carter.
  9. Well, it's not like Ray Rice was even the worst a-hole in the Raven locker room. And the other players seemed to have no problem with it.
  10. Thanks for the heads-up. Just ordered Rogue.
  11. He owns Kaep thus the space is free.
  12. ""I find that the NFLPA carried its burden of showing that Rice did not mislead the Commissioner at the June 16th meeting, and therefore, that the imposition of a second suspension based on the same incident and the same known facts about the incident, was arbitrary," Jones also wrote." Jones being the arbitrator/judge.
  13. Sounds like your mind is telling you to buy NHL 15 instead.
  14. Rewatched a movie last night: Juno - Ellen Page is Juno, a 16-year old who gets pregnant by her boyfriend Paul, played by Michael Cera. Juno isn't ready to be a mom so she's going to give up her child for adoption by a couple played by Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman. The movie is about Juno's relationship with Paul, with her dad & stepmom, and with the adoptive couple. In general, this movie works pretty well. I think I liked it more the first time I saw it but it's still pretty good on a second watch. It feels fairly authentic though Juno's dialogue is often really rude and is disaffected youth to the extreme and ends up being grating and annoying frequently. There are a lot of funny moments and the cast is terrific. Page and Cera were basically made for their roles and the supporting folks (Garner, Bateman, JK Simmons, and Allison Janney and a great cameo from Rainn Wilson) are all fantastic. Anyway, this one is pretty good, right at the Tabedoza line - 7/10.
  15. They can, just very short distances.
  16. Yeah, that's a pretty lame sale.
  17. Couple movies for me the last few days: Reign Over Me - Adam Sandler is Charlie Fineman, a dentist whose life is destroyed when his wife, three children and dog, are aboard one of the planes on 9/11. Don Cheadle plays his college roommate who sees Fineman wandering the streets four years later. Fineman has disconnected from the world, retreating into a life of endlessly remodeling his kitchen, video games, and shutting himself off. Sandler is REALLY great in this. He shows us Fineman's pain and it is raw and overwhelming. Cheadle is excellent as always and the rest of the cast does a nice job of rounding things out. This is a fantastic movie. The ending is perhaps a bit too easy but the rest is really great. 9/10. St. Vincent - Bill Murray is Vincent, a crabby old Vietnam vet who just wants the world to leave him alone. Melissa McCarthy and her son ("Oliver") move in next door. Oliver and Vincent strike up an unlikely friendship when Vincent becomes his babysitter. While this movie treads over old ground (the crusty old guy who learns from a young friend, the feel-good ending, the old guy with some tender secrets underneath, the hooker with a heart of gold, etc), it does it really well. This is funny and touching and well-done. McCarthy is good in her role, as understated as you'll ever see her, with nary a fat joke to be found. Here she's just...a normal mom, struggling to make things work. Anyway, this was really good as well. 8/10.
  18. Where i was going with that is that Stafford was a borderline superstar in his third year. Griffin in his third year has been wretched and is now benched.
  19. Stafford showed potential his first two years while missing almost his entire second season. In his third year, the same one Griffin is struggling through right now, he threw 40+ TDs and over 5000 yards. He's averaged nearly 4800 yards each of the last three years. How is that even remotely comparable to RG3?
  20. That's really tempting. That game looks really good...
  21. I meant the tripping part. When I was in college, we called the poke check button the tripping button.
  22. Plesiosaurs are boring.
  23. Yeah, let's not kid ourselves - without the cut block, Raiola doesn't get fined for that punch. That's cool - I'm OK with him getting fined for the punch.
  24. Yes, you're wrong to be insulted. It's a blanket pre-emptive strike against arguments. No need to read any more into it.
  25. Punches are pretty much never fined and the cheap shot, while incredibly cheap, wasn't illegal. Not even in the slightest.
