As a human being, I like Boomer Esiason, by all accounts a very solid dude. I can't find a single fuck to give about who the blah-blahs are on any of these shows. Fox or CBS. Sports talking heads come and go, as it has been and always will be. As many have mentioned, you put them on and mute the broadcast while pregaming. It's just background at this point.

Also, Scott Hanson is a national treasure.

Perfectly fine airplane movie. Helped me pass a couple hours on a flight to PDX. Mcgregor was absurd, and honestly a bit entertaining. Billy Magnussen (the rich white bad guy) is carving out a pretty impressive career playing a douchebag. Gotta respect the hustle.

Well, I’m known moron, so just add this to my stupid tab.

I saw that article. This is kinda of a weird draft in that it's deep, but outside of Harrison Jr., Bowers, and maybe Caleb Williams, none of the players jump off the page at you. Don't get me wrong, many of them may be stars and all pros, but this draft seems to lack guys that just scream "IT"

Brock Bowers is going to fall to some team in the 10-20 range because people lose their minds reaching for QBs.

whelp. looks like Penix and Nix are definitely either late firsts or second round picks now that Denver is probably looking at other positions.

I'll be the outlier here: Chinatown is good, not great. It gets draggy for me, but I realize I'm the exception. Jack is excellent of course, "Forget it Jake, It's Chinatown" is easily one of the most qoutable lines in movie history (Although I use it less than "Deserves got nothing to do with it") but when I think of 5-10 greatest movies ever, Chinatown isn't something that springs immediately into my head. @henrygandorf is right: that was such an epically productive time for Hollywood. It is my fervent hope that as comic book mania recedes, much like Western's, we will see another burst of creativity and innovative film making.

I’m just restating something that has been said many times on this thread: 1. Women experience a double standard in many, many things, including how aggressive and demanding they can be in order to achieve professional success and the way society interprets that behavior. 2. Kim Mulkey is a successful but awful person. Both of those things can be true. This isn’t programming, it doesn’t have to be I/O.

I have no idea what they are like behind closed doors, and I would guess they work very hard to keep it that way. I thought most of my childhood that Tommy Lasorda was some genial, good natured guy. I had no idea he had a mouth and attitude that would make a sailor blush.

So this scene from Bull Durham, as much as it is played for comedy, is a actually a guide to how to handle the media: There's a reason why you hear so many athletes giving the same boring "110% , didn't get the breaks, faith in God" blah blah speech, that makes you tune out the interview after checking out Erin Andrews: It doesn't create media ripples. Angel Reese decided she wasn't interested in the traditional route to handling the media. She had thoughts, and she expressed them. For better and worse. Winning cures a lot of problems. Reese just found out that losing tends to make things unreasonably and exponentially worse. America is still an incredibly racist and sexist country. And if, as a celebrity, you elect to raise your profile in the media ecosystem, it's going to come with some very real, unfair, and scary consequences. That doesn't make it right, but Reese's post game speech didn't seek to tamp down on an already volatile and awful situation, it poured gasoline on the fire.

I could never get into this series. Then or now. Batman:TAS, Bayman Beyond, and Justice League makes the quality of the Marvel animation look like it was drawn in preschool.

That last quarter of the Michigan game was eye opening. If you give him a clean pocket and time, he's Mark Rypien and will tear you to shreds. If he has to do it on the go/underpressure, he's also Mark Rypien and his game falls apart pretty quick.

As a 5'9" guy who was very unenthusiastic about fighting in my bar crawling hey day, can confirm that avoiding aggro little dudes is a very wise course of action.

Prep seems to be the hardest part, from what my wife told me. I'm due. I have a bidet, so it can't be that bad, can it?

Just get fucked.

Lol. When it came out and the controversy about the nose occurred, all I could think about was Tropic Thunder: The Academy has gotten pretty good at sniffing out thinly veiled Oscar bait.

Este. It was easily one of the horniest movies I've ever seen. Not sexy. Just horny. Either way, I'm totally glad I saw it.

Rattler is a perfect 4th round pick. He might just pan out and become something special, because he's had to play in hero mode most of college, but if he doesn't, it's not that big a deal. A team that can afford to make him 3rd string and let him grip it and rip it a bit in preseason to see if it will pan is the ideal location.

Brickskeller bit the bullet year’s ago. when I moved here in 97, on Friday and Saturday nights the cabs ran exclusively between Adam’s Morgan and Georgetown. You could get to the bar, but getting home was a nightmare.

We all were, brother.

I honestly don't know beyond internet rumor mongering as well, but his rise at Oregon coincides with the Willie Lyles era. All that seems positively archaic by today's standards.

I haven't been on this thread in a hot minute. That Hawk>T Coast> Smith Point adventure was a fucking movie back in the day. I never cared that much for the Tune. The Shitty service and ass food didn't make up for the cheap ish drinks and it never had the dark, "let's make some poor life choices" atmosphere that the old school Hawk had. Fun fact: I used to live directly across the street from the rear of the Hawk. Ever since the Lounge died, the Hill just hasn't had a lot of quality get shitty drinking options (and it never had as much as other parts of town to begin with). For those that didn't hear, the man that ruled DC nightlife and pretty much sole handedly created H street died in 2020. https://dcist.com/story/20/08/24/joe-englert-dc-restaurant-bar-owner-obituary/

I was always sort of under the impression he talked Knight into pushing Bellotti into AD/retirement so they could implement a pay to play system and let Kelly run wild with the spread attack. Anyway, UCLA definitely backing into the BIG1G rn.
