It allows us to make tired yet semi-humorous references to UGH?!? and to cocaine dealing.

“Yo, Vince! The studio made me another offer to direct Gotti! I’m gonna cast you in the lead and give Johnny a walk on!”

I still say that sometimes: Back in my day you never did get wood watching TV!

Grunge became a catch-all term for a specific hybrid of punk / metal / arena rock that featured soft verses and loud choruses, pop inspired melodies, introspective lyrics, and comparatively lo-fi production.

I enjoyed the 1997 movie, but assumed the show was dumb until after watching King of the Hill and Office Space, and then I thought, “Maybe the show’s supposed to be dumb on purpose,” and I liked it a lot.

You’re not wrong. These guys rule the roost at home, and their workplace, and at a bar ro tow, and don’t venture very far outside of that comfort zone.

Yes, not heard. Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice, they don’t have a voice. and the guys burning jerseys don’t care.

And going back to the original statement made by Colin Kapernick, a large percentage of NFL players friends, family, and themselves targeted and mistreated by law enforcement. For Trump, the exercise is entirely academic. For the men burning their football jerseys, again, academic in the aggregate.

Football in LA during a hot late summer afternoon is more popular than a Trump rally.

I feel like the sports world would be better off drained of this type of toxic male faux-masculinity.

Why does it seem like fictional Native Americans drive 80s station wagons?

Eat to live; don’t live to eat.

Hell, what if two or more teams decided to delay the game fifteen or thirty minutes? That would send a message where it counts: the pocketbook.

That’s normal for how TV was produced in the past; all shows were like that.

These are small businesses:

Inner Light is great, especially for a non-serialized show, because it gave our hero so much depth, humanity, and pathos. Why is Picard a great captain? In part, because of the Inner Light. He’s more than Kirk delivering a speech.

Lost in Space was a solid sci-fi action film.

Those old school ones outside of Shore Leave are kind of dark.
