  1. They have GOT to do something about these Regal segments where he looks so much bigger than the talent.  Have him stand in a pit.  Have them stand on phonebooks.  Do the whole thing sitting down.  SOMETHING.  Fuck.

    So you're the new team working a Hobbit gimmick then?

  2. Deadspin has the story on it.  I don't know why we're talking about whether or not he knew about the deflation.  The NFL lost the case because they handled it with astounding arrogance and rampant stupidity from the beginning.  You can't base a suspension on some bullshit "honor code" that isn't published anywhere.

     

     

    We’ll be updating this post as we go through the 40-page decision, which can be read in full below. Here, though, are the three ways the judge ruled that the NFL fucked up:

    1. The NFL didn’t properly inform Brady of the punishment he faced, or even what he was accused of.
    2. The NFL didn’t let Brady’s camp question NFL executive and counsel Jeff Pash at his appeal.
    3. The NFL didn’t give Brady’s side the opportunity to examine the evidence against him.

  3. Charactor actor Billy Drago is probably best known for his portrayal of Frank Nitty in The Untouchables, most of his other roles show him playing the exact same slimy, sleazy character that he portrays in Untouchables...

     

    Except for the Chuck Norris turkey Hero and The Terror where he rather unconvincingly plays a therapist specializing in treating rape victims.

     

    Now THAT is miscasting.  Damn.  Unless he treated them by throwing them out the window and cackling.

    Both sides have been exceptional shitheads, but I just can't see the Feds sticking their nose into a dispute between a union and a private business that does not have a compelling national interest (aviation, cars, trains).

     

    Don't underestimate the feds' desire to be on TV, rub elbows with famous jocks, and feign outrage and concern.  Ballplayers sticking needles in their asses in order to hit a ball farther was not some earth-shattering national interest issue, either, but we still had hearings (live on TV!).

  5. Oh shit I just noticed that.  God damn, NFL.  Once you get a coaching job, you can stay in the league for life.  Fail one place as head coach, get a coordinator job somewhere else, succeed despite yourself, then get another head coaching job, rinse, repeat..

  6. How did I not notice Denver signed Gary Kubiak as OC?  As a Baltimore fan, this makes me almost as happy as him leaving the Ravens in the first place.  Enjoy his play calling wizardry, Broncos fans.  His entire system is, "call rushing plays on typical passing downs and vice versa, because surely nobody will ever expect that!"  3rd and 20?  HANDOFF!  3rd and 1?  They're definitely expecting the run so let's go deep!

     

    Dude's whole play calling philosophy revolves around trying to be entirely too fucking cute.  Actually, he's great for Denver because Peyton will audible out of every call anyway.

  7. I'm sorry if you can't understand the gulf between defending someone against a pedophilia rumor and wanting to divulge someone's personal business. If you want to know that bad, ask one of them. Otherwise I'm not going to make an enemy out of either one of those guys.

     

    wait what just how old was this younger sister?

    - CBS cancelled Under the Dome

     

    Mercy killing.  The novel has the dumbest ending which makes me dread the series finale.

     

     

    You just described almost every King novel.  You need to be more specific than that.

     

    I had Under the Dome pegged for cancellation after last season but, apparently, it was kept afloat by Amazon Prime Instant rights fees.  This season just seems so off the cuff and shitty that the writers probably thought so, too.  "We got renewed???  Oh shit."

     

    Re: Banshee -- it's an awesome show.  This next season is going to be its last but I bet it'll be a crazy sendoff.

     

    Ray Donovan got renewed for season 4.  I think season 3 is really good despite changing show runners.  The new show creators managed to keep the "nothing ever works out for anybody/one step forward, two steps back" aesthetic going.

    "Unfortunately a deranged individual with no WWE affiliation, who had a court order prohibiting him from being on WWE property, was involved in an incident with an Orange County Sherriff's deputy in the parking lot of the WWE Performance Center. We defer to the Orange County Sherriff's department for further comment and information."

    WWE statement.
