Most of us moderate our fandom up here. That “heartfelt” letter is ridiculous and a prime example of someone who needs to reevaluate their priorities in life, but there is no way any collective group of fans could ever surpass Patriots fans on the insufferable scale.

Sutherland has another series to do (on Fox I think). I fully expect him to show up to help the new guy if this gets picked up to series (after escaping from prison in Russia, of course). Sutherland is listed as an exec producer on the new series.

Agree about Episode II, I actually consider it totally un-watchable at this point. The love story is completely unbelievable. There is zero chemistry between the leads. Did Lucas even screen test them together? When Anakin admits to slaughtering all the sandpeople (“even the women and children”), any sane person would…

While I can’t disagree with your assessment, didn’t the only public source for the story re-cant it? I know the reporter said they had another super secret source, but seems like the story was pretty dead by Friday. Sure, if something else comes out I’m sure it’ll be headline news again, but right now you have 1…

I think that’s true in any work environment. However, I’m not sure that is really the case here. Creating a system that emphasizes conditioning and nutrition just makes good sense in a sport where being able to execute soundly after 3 quarters of intense physical play is a key factor to winning. In this case it just…

The rule book is too complex, and at least one player thinks they need an additional official covering the game.

It’s a running joke on his TV show that every time they find a better apartment his wife finds something wrong with it because she’s overly attached to the place they have now. There’s probably a little truth in that joke.

Seems this would only be true if your taxable was low right now. If you are living a higher tax bracket, chances are paying now will cost you more than when you are retired...unless you planing on living large.

Not sure on defense. Definitely true on offense. Also not sure if the D ever huddled. Quite possible they did not as “block field goal” isn’t really something you’d necessarily huddle up for.

Ball was never hiked. 12 men only applies when the play starts. Where they erred is stopping Pete Carroll from calling time-out. They simply should have ignored him. If the ball had been hiked then perhaps 12 men would have been called.

I also would have thought reporters would have learned their lesson from last…

Having recently re-watched the films I just don’t see it. Sure some of the same wooden dialogue is there, but the prequels are so lifeless it is stunning. Now I believe Lucas was trying to do the whole ring theory thing (it explains so much), and those films suffered because of it. So while the prequels are technical…

I would cut out Ep 2 myself. The love story is so bad as to not be believable. Better to just have them already in love after setting it up in Ep 1

I just don’t feel like it was that gutsy given the circumstances. It wasn’t overly conservative, which is why it was so surprising for the NFL. However, given the lack of real offensive production by the Steelers, it was quite likely San Diego wins in OT. It was the correct call given the circumstances.

I was watching some bad action movie one afternoon back in May. Really just half watching it, when I noticed a purple discoloration in the right corner. Mind you, it’s not small. Light colored backgrounds, it is 30% of the screen real estate. Decided to wait to see how long it would take my wife to notice it...she…

Eh. He still draws coverage. Gruden said the TD pass was due to the safety focusing on Graham.

Fans: “Oh that holy roller play...that was awesome!”
NFL: “We’re making it illegal”

No Fun League.

If they don’t figure out the o-line pretty soon, the Hawks are looking at 8-8 and that’s if Wilson stays healthy. Which given the pounding he took last night, is a big IF right now.

When the schedule came out, I knew starting 0-2 was a distinct possibility. Seattle really struggles in St. Louis for whatever reason…

It’s actually a shame the game ended with like it did as up until that point the officials were mostly a non-factor (what? 3 flags all night?). It what a nice game it was because of it. It ended on-time (or even early) and there were no long drawn out replays.

The rulebook is too complicated. The official probably…

The new slimline seats are higher up so the recline isn’t a big deal on the knees. The new slimline seats are just awful at any position since they squeeze at least one extra row onto the plane, if not more. I was on AA flight with a redesigned interior and the seat in front of me was so close the tray folded out in…

Seems kind of a mean thing to say. Wilson has an entire career ahead of him to become old and cynical. No need to try and get him there any earlier.
