    If you're a Newcastle fan I think you're REALLY going to enjoy it...

    Recency bias yes, but this was one of my favorite movies I've ever seen in theaters. I have no idea if it will have as much re-watch value, but I thought the story was fun, there were a lot of hysterical moments and it's stylistically one of the most unique movies I've ever seen. I absolutely loved this movie. I got out of the theater an hour and a half ago and I'm still buzzing.

    I binged Sunderland 'Til I Die over the past two days and really liked it. Most sports documentary series are on championship caliber teams or at least teams that are good. I've never seen one featuring a team during its worst season ever and found it thoroughly and utterly fascinating. I came out of it hoping Sunderland makes it back to the EPL at some point. Really good watch.

    It is a huge pet peeve of mine when an announcer says a bad three point shooting team missing an open three is a "good shot". After tonight Texas is shooting 32.2 percent from three which is 259th in the country. They're a bad three point shooting team. It drives me fucking crazy.

    It is underrated how Atlanta built the roster around the high profile DP signings. Certainly having arguably the best player in the league (Almiron) and the single season scoring leader on the roster gives you wiggle room, but Eales and Bocanegra did a great job filling the roster in. It's nice to have Almiron's replacement already in the mix and that's where the commitment to spending is a massive benefit. I'm more concerned about the eventual replacement for Parkhurst (35 next year) and Larentowicz (36 next August). Tata found ways to reinvigorate those guys in the tail ends of their careers. Those guys were unbelievably valuable this year.

    Spoilering it because the video in the tweet is VERY NSFW, but Atlanta United players took the MLS Cup to the very well known strip club Magic City last night.

    Good. Fuck Graham Harrell and Fuck Mack Brown for trying to hire him.

    I didn't like it initially, but I think the payoff and the rationale from Esmail made it worth it for me.

    Oregon fought off nine set points. At 38-37 Minnesota thought they won the set, but Oregon challenged it and the officials ruled correctly that a dig had hit the ground. Oregon just won the third set to go up 2-1. Would be brutal for Minnesota to lose with the Final Four in Minneapolis this year.

    I binged Inside Jokes the last two days and liked it. It's a six episode (hour long each) documentary series and seven comedians auditioning for the new faces showcase at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal. I think they did a great job telling the stories of each comedian to give you a reason to care about all of them. Recommended for any fans of stand up.

    This pretty much means the Georgia Tech job is Geoff Collins' if he wants it. Could happen tonight.

    I totally get this is a pretty big who gives a shit job, but Austin Peay was one of the worst programs in FCS before Healy took over and they got snubbed for a playoff spot last year. It'll be interesting to see if can build an FBS resume and be a name to watch for big jobs 5 years down the road.

    It's heroic he made it through the year given everything he went through this season which was in no way a consequence of protecting a wife beating piece of shit.

    If he wants to be a head coach again he will. If he's fine being an assistant he'll stay in the NBA.

    I'm curious given the new redshirt rules if we'll see guys who haven't played much or at all get some reps in the bowl game if they have good weeks of practice leading up to the game. I don't see a downside of it.

    If it happens the Big Ten, Pac-12 and Big 12 should just break off and form their own mini tournament because the committee is saying that they don't matter.

    I don't know how good Clemson is. They absolutely belong in, they may be the best team, they haven't been challenged since September and played one good-ish team (A&M at A&M) that was a two point game. I just wonder how they'll play against someone good.

    Surely we could organize a chola exchange program

    Here is Texas' 3 point field goal percentage by game this season: E. Illinois - 32 Arky - 32.3 ULM - 24 Citadel - 28.6 UNC - 45.8 Mich St - 26.5 Radford- 18.5 To the surprise of nobody the Carolina game is an outlier. This was a bad three point shooting team last year. They're still a bad three point shooting team. They do nothing to create offense. This is an ongoing problem and if Del Conte doesn't give a shit then the program is going nowhere.

    So the competition that was named in honor of the men who fought for Latin American independence from Spain will be held in Spain. This whole thing has become a comedy.
  23. ATLLonghorn
    That's unfortunate. Hopefully at some point you can make it down there for a game and hopefully people treat you well. I will say I totally get the hate, but I will also say that the enthusiasm Atlanta has is organic and real and given our rep as a bad sports town at least people genuinely care about a team.
  24. ATLLonghorn
    Honestly curious, what's your beef with Atlanta? How obnoxiously excited our fans are about the team?
  25. ATLLonghorn
    It's fine. Not the best choice but he's a good coach. The bigger thing is why did it take this long to make it happen? There never appeared to be a second choice so why did they waste a year of roster development and end up hiring the safe, predictable choice? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
