This is actually good news.

Also, the destroyers and cruiser/s that constantly screen the carrier have a number of anti-missile defenses themselves. That's worth noting. There are many layers. Like an onion!

Well you might notice my avatar is of a CIWS mount - more specifically an LPWS mount; it is so for a reason (I operated one for a while), and I can tell you that with recent hardware and software updates, the CIWS is a far more potent defense weapon than it was in the past. It certainly has no problem with fast,…

The propellers are really nothing special. The fact that they're four-bladed has been known for a really long time, and other than their size, they're really just big versions of any old boat propeller. It's not like they're even remotely stealthy underwater - their sheer size prohibits that. The design's only…

We also have these things called submarines, and they're also pretty damn good at blowing up other submarines. We also have destroyers, which we may or may not call "torpedo sponges" for a reason, and the carriers themselves have some fairly good pieces of technology that defeat torpedoes. They are not as vulnerable…

You're absolutely correct, but the catapults used up an incredibly huge amount of steam - fresh-water steam - that can now go to things like showers for the sailors and water to wash the dishes, both things that get sacrificed regularly in the name of flight tempo.

One of them is always broke on any given Nimitz class anyway. Even when all four work, the way the hangar deck is laid out, it's impossible to use all four most of the time.

The best part is, they're started by air.

This comment is nearly as dumb and irrelevant as the officiating was. You can call ad hominem all you want, but frankly you don't deserve an explanation.

So the blatantly obvious offensive pass interference when he shoves off a packer doesn't count? Way to only focus on a tiny part of the play!

Oh boy, with the level of intelligence you're displaying, you'd be right at home in a zebra shirt right now!

The NFL has shot past the WWE in lack of credibility. It's a farce. A stupid bullshit nonsense idiotic farce, and every game and every score is utterly fucking meaningless. It's Whose Line Is It Anyway with tighter shirts.

What in the actual fuck. The NFL has literally lost all credibility. It's a fucking joke. After this game, I don't care for the NFL or any football games any more. I'm watching soccer.

Very nice Samsung TV. I have a similar one, though not that fancy (read: cheaper).

30 days a year. I'm in the military. It is very closely tracked. Except when it isn't at all.

Oh, they work great at 2mph. At 20mph, however, they magically turn into sweet jumps.

So they're saying the NEX-7 has a better sensor than the 5Dmk3? I'm really gonna just have to throw the bullshit flag on that one.

This sort of subject really requires a measured response.

It's possible.
