It doesn't. Gonna have to ask Rippa to ban you.

Have you seen Eragon? It could cure you of that. I actually sort of enjoyed that movie. Nothing great but decent enough.

Apologies to Dolfan for starting this one myself but wanted to post this here and not have it buried in last week's thread: Many of you are aware that Vandy dismissed four players for allegedly raping a fellow student. Well, there's a lot more to the story than that, including a very strong allegation that head coach James Franklin tried to cover it up: http://www.buzzfeed.com/bobbyallyn/an-ugly-rape-case-involving-vanderbilts-football-team-could

I can see why you're asking. I just did a Google search and there's basically no helpful info out there. What about eating a lot more meat, even fatty stuff like hamburger or bacon? Cheese?

Yep. They very explicitly setup a sequel with the ending but we never got the payoff.

So I'm now a third of the way into season 7 of The Office. There was definitely a dropoff in quality with season 6, and again with season 7, but not into the godawful territory, thankfully. Still, you can see lots of elements of creative burnout - including a dance party sequence during Jim & Pam's wedding in season 6 after having basically the exact same scene during season 5 in the old offices of the Michael Scott Paper Co. Then you get a long dance sequence during the wedding itself as well. It's pretty much a given that a series has hit the wall creatively if they start doing long musical sequences as time fillers - and seaons 6 & 7 have a lot of them - like the painful opening musical number in the season 7 premier. All that said, still a funny show with lots of good moments. My opinions of the various characters hasn't changed much - Jim is a douche, Pam is a bitch (just go ahead and try to scam your company out of a $40k a year job, ok?), and Andy is just painful to have on my TV. My favorite character might just be Toby - he's worn out, he's defeated, but his little bits are funny. I'll watch the rest of season 7 and that's probably it. No desire to see the show without Steve Carrell.

Danielle Panabaker? She was good in Mr. Brooks - a FANTASTIC movie that criminally didn't get the trilogy it was supposed to be.

After losing 40 pounds a year ago in a weight loss competition, I came up with an injured back that severely limited my mobility. Between that and some bad eating habits, I gained most of it back. I'm o on a plan again and dropped 10 pounds this week. The plan is to lose the 40 again and get some definition before going to Hawaii in March. Abs will probably be the main target area. We'll see how it goes!

Just finished the book Jacked - the story of the GTA series and Rockstar in general. Great book with lots of insider details, especially the "Hot Coffee" episode. Much recommended.

Lizzy Seeberg was a Notre Dame student who was raped by a Notre Same football player. She reported it immediately but the administration buried it while allowing players to harass her. She committed suicide 10 days later.

It'll be fun to see if the potential for that one run is worth having him on their 25-man.Been done before:http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/w/washihe01-bat.shtml?mobile=false

Yeah, ND gashed Michigan repeatedly straight up the middle, so why throw so freaking often?
-
The platinum for Ni No Kuni is a helluva grind. Getting all the creatures was a big pain. Traded in last of Us today so won't be beating it anytime soon :-)
-
Steak on the grill for me. Jim Harbaugh was the QB fo a great Michigan team so he gets a lot of leeway from me but he's been a straight up dickhead since getting to the NFL.
-
Too lazy to create new post so copying from another site: Great win for Michigan. Gardner gives Michigan their first real QB since Henne graduated. They're a 10-win team last year if he'd played the whole year. Except for one play,he was basically perfect tonight. Awesome. But that one play... I've seen a lot of football in my lifetime and the pick he threw tonight is the single worst play by a QB I've ever seen. Running backward 15yards and then flinging a pick in your endzone is just awful. Worse than any Denard brain fart. But I'll take it! Oh, and excuse me while I laugh: - at South Carolina coaches fighting on the side line - at USC for losing at home to Wazzu while scoring just 7points - at Texas for getting beaten up - beaten up, not just beaten - by BYU.

This makes me sad. Considering how stoked I was for the game, it makes me sad, too.
-
I was so proud of myself way back in the day when I figured out how to rig that so I got the exact character class I wanted every time.

Watched Trouble With The Curve with the wife. 2 hours of smoking hot Amy Adams is always good but the rest of the movie is kinda cliché and weak. It's OK but Clint just does his grumpy old man thing and Timberlake adds nothing. Decent enough but not great. Worth the five bucks I paid for the blu ray. 6/10.

Just watched The Way on Netflix. Martin Sheen stars as a father whose son died on the first day of trying to walk the Camino de Santiago trail from France to Spain (a 500mi trek). Sheen goes to France to pick up his remains and decides to walk the trail as his way of reconnecting with his son, with whom he did not have a happy departure. Along the trail, he meets up with some other pilgrims and they complete the trip. The goal of the movie was to be understated and it certainly succeeds. That said, there's not much going on here. Sheen's character doesn't really do any self-reflection or gain any real insight. He's nearly 70 years old but experiences no health difficulties. And the people he walks with aren't particularly interesting. In the end, it's basically just 2 hours of nothing. 4/10.

So I gave up on The Last of Us. I found the "30 seconds of action, 3 minutes of cutscene" too much to take. And I didn't care for the gameplay itself. I'll be trading this in and maybe eventually I'll re-buy it but I doubt it. Literally every single time I played the game, I'd play for maybe an hour and it felt like 3 or 4. Not a good sign at all. So now I'm back to The Walking Dead. I completed the first two episodes back when those were free on PS+ and grabbed the last 3 when those were free on PS+ but am just now playing them I liked the first 2 eps very much and am enjoying the third now, too. Good stuff. After that, probably Tomb Raider but maybe Sleeping Dogs.
-
I liked AC3 a lot more than that. The side stuff is often not great but the main story stuff is good. Not enough stuff with Connor and his dad though.
-
One of my all-time favorites and probably the only game I've beaten more than twice. Just an incredible, awesome game.

That Canada jersey is terrible. Terribly boring and uninspired.

41 with old knees like Johnny...
