  1. Kelly's Heroes is great, yeah not sure what you could cut out.
  2. Pitt’s #1 ranked Women’s Volleyball team just beat #3 Penn State in a sold out Petersen Events Center!
  3. The ACC is going to blow up is just Big 12 fanboy bs, sure Clemson & FSU are suing with the hope that the SEC or Big 10 will take them, but those conferences really don’t need them and the whole GOR lawsuit will be in the courts for years. What’s more likely to happen is the the SEC and Big 10 pick off who they want from the ACC and Big 12 near the end of the decade and you’ll see new conference with teams from the ACC and Big 12.
  4. Hopefully the conference realignments will get Pitt & WVU into the same conference so the Brawl can be played at the end of the season, would be a perfect primetime Black Friday game.
  5. Pitt wins!
  6. Backyard Brawl is fun as usual, just had a WVU fake punt for a 1st down, then 3 plays later Pitt blocks a punt and runs it in for a TD.
  7. Keep an eye on TCM, they usually run it when baseball season is starting and I can see them doing a night for Jones at some point.
  8. Lyke's contract was up at the end of the year, it now seems like the Pitt's chancellor wasn't interested in an extension so Lyke had to start looking for another gig. Pitt has always shoot itself in the dick and made dumb decisions like this after a little bit of success, Lyke has done a hell of a job in creating stability in football and men's basketball after dumb firing & hiring decisions of previous AD's, and totally reformed Pitt's Olympic Sports which were basically nonexistent before she got there. Also, there's been talk about Lyke not being on the ball when it comes to NIL, I feel that's a bad take since Pitt has nowhere near the alumni base of Penn State & Ohio State who the local media and message board nerds want to compare them too, and Pitt doesn't have a billionaire sugar daddy who's going to come up with some NIL scheme, their billionaire sugar daddies throw money around on the academic side of things.
  9. Greg Olsen is really bad at announcing, at the end of the Steelers-Falcons he was yelling about how the Steelers just have to take a knee, there was still way too much time for that. Then he was praising Pittsburgh OC Arthur Smith for getting a big win over the team that fired him, ummm they didn’t score any TD’s, Boz kicked three 50 yard+ field goals and his team has one of the best D’s in the league going against mediocre white QB Kirk Cousins.
  10. The Giants Montreal Canadians jerseys and Grey Poupon pants is a really bad look.
  11. In the NFL the home team has the choice of what color they want to wear, the visiting team has no say, there was a stretch in the 70's and 80's where the NFC East teams would wear white at home so the Cowboys had to wear their blue jerseys, which supposedly were "bad luck". In college the visiting team must agree on wearing a color jersey if the home team wants to wear white, but the SEC has a rule that overrides that so LSU can wear white in conference games.
  12. What was the timeframe of the big contract Henry had that Vince totally wanted out of?
  13. I had teachers play "historical" movies that weren't really historical all the time, in 9th grade my social studies teacher showed us The Guns of Navarone over the course of the week, then someone mentioned they made a sequel Force 10 from Navarone and we watched that a few weeks later. Also, had an English teacher show us One Eyed-Jacks purely due to it being his favorite movie and recently coming out on VHS.
  14. The main reason I didn't watch it was due to ditching Disney+ after one of their price increases, will totally watch it once I rejoin at some point.
  15. That match is so much fun.
  16. Really want to see this!
  17. Mr. Throwback on Peacock featuring Steph Curry is really funny, had a few needed to pause it due to laughing so hard.
  18. His show never felt exploitive towards guests like early Oprah, Geraldo, Sally Jesse, Maury and Springer, nor did he trot out snake oil salesmen like later Oprah and her copycats. He would also would freak out the squares by doing shows about Club Kids and having 2 Live Crew perform.
  19. I probably watched way too much Donahue as a kid, it was really good and when I fell down a rabbit hole of old episodes a few years ago it still held up. Also, watched his MSNBC show in the early 2000's, the one GE fired him from due to his anti Iraq War build up views.
  20. He’s going to be on an oxygen tank like the gangsters at the end of Casino.
  21. Kind of remember it, Bob Costas was supposed to be a part of this but bailed due to the exploitation of the Gulf War.
  22. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Nixon's resignation I rented Dick the 1999 comedy directed by Andrew Fleming. Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams were hysterical in this, really wish this was some kind of hit so they'd get paired up again. I said this previously, Dan Hedaya's Nixon is one of the best ever put on film, there's a scene where Nixon realizes the girls know too much and he turns against them, Hedaya is able to go from silly satirical Nixon to evil Nixon seamlessly. It's weird to see Will Ferrell be constrained in his scenes as Bob Woodward since he's teamed with with Bruce McCulloch who's doing his Dustin Hoffman as Carl Bernstein impression.
  23. Ferris was a reflection of the 80's yuppie attitude, which shouldn't shock anyone since John Hughes was the ultimate yuppie. Another thing I realized about a lot of Hughes movies as an adult is that he really punches down on working class people.
  24. This! I’ve worked in my share of toxic workplaces and from everything I’ve read the past few years AEW is a toxic workplace. MJF not getting any kind of punishment for escalating the situation is par for the course in toxic workplaces, especially when the other party is a female.
