  1. They did not show any of the fouls in replay. Maybe the first one was visible in the live feed but I was way too bummed out at that point to rewind. I mean 2 unsportsmanlike on the same fucking play you'd think that would be of some interest to the viewer right? And then another like the very next play? Or two plays whatever it was. I read that the first flag was Shack laying on a dude too long. Also read the Baylor player took a swing at him after that. Braun was yelling at the ref about that, presumably, and MFed him or something along those lines. Last one was Kerstetter? No idea what he did.

    Everquest

    That sucks. 51 especially. Was this out of nowhere or?
  3. Yeah that is exactly right. Worked very well for us, especially with a 2 hour show like those often are. And I agree its not the same as having it in the cloud and being able to watch at your leisure some time in the next 6 months while skipping forward at will, it beats having to watch ads over the course of a 2 hour show. For the ones we missed (or fucked up by stopping after the live show had ended), we just never watched those episodes again.
  4. Yeah but they don't replace your recording with their on demand until after its done airing live. And as long as you started watching what you are recording before it ended, you have a buffered live stream until you turn it off or it times out. So you can fast forward. We did this weekly for the various Bachelor shows.
  5. I wanted a new cooler and did some research and came up with this one from Cabela's https://www.cabelas.com/product/home/polar-cap-coolers-tumblers-and-accessories/pc/105625080/c/1080657180/cabelas-polar-cap-equalizer-cooler/2233322.uts?slotId=4 IMO, it's as good as a Yeti and cheaper. I don't do much with it aside from pull beers out of it on gamedays but I like knowing its bear safe and made in the USA. I use re-usable ice packs in it and it will keep drinks cold for a week in my living room or kitchen.
  6. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000231848/article/antonio-smith-swings-helmet-at-richie-incognito MG should be suspended for a full 16. Pouncey I think should have gotten 1-2. Personally that's what I want to see from an Olineman on my team and I am sure the locker room or team will take care of his missing game checks and fine. But I understand the NFL can't let a guy throw multiple punches and kicks with no repercussions.
  7. I think he plays a little bit of a character. He has a turtleneck sponsor for God's sake. Also, he was definitely better when he was on ESPN with Ryen Russillo. I thought they were a pretty good team. Russillo is just good period.
  8. Yahoo Sports App was/is wrong I guess. Looking online at places that will actually take your money, its still ISU -7 almost everywhere.
  9. At the time he opted out I am pretty sure they were just going to cut him and so it was a saving face measure more than anything. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/the-49ers-wouldve-cut-colin-kaepernick-if-he-hadnt-opted-out-of-his-contract/ This morning, Dan Patrick said that this tryout is the result of Jay Z pressuring Goodell. I'd be shocked if he ends up on a roster at this point. He's not going to get the starter money he's looking for and seems unwilling to play a back up role. He fucked up getting signed in Baltimore, and torched that bridge to the ground, which ironically would have been the best place for his skill set.
  10. Yahoo Sports App showing the line as even for this now. That is a lot of movement in 3 days.
  11. YTTV: For the channels that do replace recorded shows with on-demand versions...as long as you start watching your recorded version before it gets replaced you can still access it if you do it in one session. Not great but better than having to deal with commercials. What I mean is that lets say you have a show that runs 7-9p. As long as you start watching it before 9p and finish it in one sitting, you can fast forward normally. We did this for CBS BIP.

    AP Top 25

    LSU, an ohio state university and Clemson seem very likely as 1-2-3 in that order. So who's 4th? Well Georgia if they win out. But I don't think they have much of a chance to do that. I don't think 11-1 Bama gets in over 13-0 Baylor or 12-1 OU. I think they would get in over 12-1 Oregon because their loss would be a team Bama beat. 12-1 Utah or 11-1 Bama? To me that is Utah just because I don't think the committee would leave out a 1 loss P5 champ in that scenario. Really though, which of these results is most likely? 13-0 Baylor, 12-1 OU, 12-1 Oregon, 12-1 Utah or...11-1 Bama. To me its the last one by far so it seems more ikely to me than not that Bama is gonna back door the last spot.

  14. I have played 100s of hours of every Diablo ever made. I imagine the trend will continue here.
  15. LHN definitely not on YouTubeTV, not sure about the other two. I think yes for DirectTVnow and no for Sling though.
  16. The Laundromat was good. Very watchable, nice pace, good actors and an interesting story. Gary Oldman and Antonio Banderas are great in it.
  17. The last one right? I have blocked much of that game from my memory.
  18. Sure but teams still *do* return kick offs. Just not us. We were trying, and failing, to return kicks against as recently as the Kansas game. We were especially terrible at kick off returns vs OU. AFAIK, TCU was the first time this year we decided to fair catch everything.
  19. The return teams are the worst I've ever seen at any level of football. We fucking retired the kick return unit. We don't even try to return it because someone decided its better to just take it at the 25 than fucking up a return. And I agree that taking the ball at the 25 is better than getting stopped short of the 25 every return but it begs the question...why when you are more talented than almost every opponent can you not do something every other team can? Like return a fucking kick? The punt return unit though...holy shit. Next level shitting the bed. We're lucky to just field a goddamn punt without incident. Negative net punt return yards through 8 games...how does this happen? I mean has it ever happened? I feel like I would have noticed this as a fan watching Texas for 40 years or so. High school teams across the state have mastered these simple fundamental parts of football...but not Texas. This reflects very poorly on Herman. Whoever runs these units needs to be replaced this week.

    Houston Oilers

    I was 5 and living in Houston for Earl's first season with the Oilers. I became a Texas fan because of Earl. Local high school was the Longhorns too, that probably helped. I went to the annual Oilers-Cowboys preseason game in 78 or 79 and learned from a helpful nearby fan that Danny White was a fag (dude screamed it at the top of his lungs every time he got a snap). Oilers losing to the Bills...man. I was hung over watching the game at a friends house and crashed at half time thinking we were a mortal lock to advance. Later, my buddy woke me up to tell me it was tied. I told him to fuck off and let me sleep. Woke up a few hours later to find him drunk and still drinking, staring at the TV contemplating oblivion. Oilers leaving Houston destroyed my faith in pro sports and it will never be restored.

    Cosmi should starts

    That was a genius level play design. I have watched football for forty years and I don't recall seeing anyone ever do that...leak the left tackle from his normal formation to the flat to catch a backwards pass from across the field. Crazy shit. Cosmi looked great executing and finishing the play. I hope they work him into some tackle eligible goal line packages.
  22. My favorite season was the one with Black Bike Week and Ivan the Top DJ. I think that was 3 but if not, oh well. I thought it went downhill after that season.
  23. Yeah I thought there were a couple more in this episode that were hilarious. The "I don't like shows where people solve stuff." was delivered brilliantly. The misbehaving song was so well done and catchy that I thought for sure they were covering some corny ass country variety show shit from the 70s or something like that. But no they made it up, crazy. I love this show and I think it is better than Vice Principals. It is not better than peak Eastbound and Down Season 3 but its some of McBride's best work. And yeah the sister has really stolen scenes here. I like her character much more than the one she played in VPs.
  24. SGammo is a great place to buy ammo over the internet. They have a lot of stock and very good prices. Shipping is by weight and your cart tells you how much you can add before your rate goes up. I have never had an order not ship next business day. Downside, place is in OK. Upside, no Texas sales tax. I used to shop around with gunbot and ammoseek but they have been my default for years now.
