  1. Glad KC won. That said, once again, a close game is ruined by a failure to call an obvious holding call in the secondary. Same old shit.
  2. Fucker wanted to be the hero, forgot the first rule of carrying the ball.
  3. Ferrari. Adam Driver, Penelope Cruz. Awful. No real story, just a few dramatic moments. Lead character never does anything except talk to other people - actually, that's pretty much all any character does.
  4. No doubt, at some point, drunk or sad as hell, Jones confided to his son or his wife - I just didn't realize what I was doing when I gave Prescott that fat ass contract. The Jackass of Cheap ruined this team.
  5. Change team colors to pink. Dallas Pussyboys. "Coach McCarthy cares about us as human beings..." "He's just a big lovable Teddy Bear..." "We'll get better - we promise..."
  6. Apparently the NFL has now decided that beginning next season, receivers will begin wearing harnesses with large chrome handles on either side of their back that make will it easier to grab onto them when they try to run a route. This was a response to the outcry from D backs that it was getting too hard to try and keep up with the receivers and it was requiring all kinds of exercise during practices.
  7. So just finished the final episode of Rome (2005) (8.7/10 at IMDB). Haven't seen it since it premiered. What an amazing piece of historical fiction about the last days of the Roman Empire condensed into a few years. A strong friendship forms between two warriors who in many ways couldn't be more different. Great acting all around. Unforgettable characters include Julius Caesar, Mark Antony, Cleopatra and about twenty others. Epic. The two men are Lucius Veronus, a by the book Roman commander and Titus Pullo, a brawling drunk, also in Caesar's army. Brings to life the daily life in ancient Rome. Very authentic realization. The story was not designed to go for more than two seasons, and the producers didn't sell out.
  8. Haven't seen those. Thinking about it. It's pretty cutting edge.
  9. If percentages meant you'd come out even going for two, people would be doing it all the time. Everyone kicks EPs.
  10. Theoretically you have the mo. WTF was he thinking. Another score and it's overtime. Horrible fucking decision
  11. Nice halftime adjustments, Texans... That said, couldn't help but feel refs were helping to keep Balt. on top. The holding of receivers was every play.
  12. Talk about last second victories. Go Horns! Fuck BAAylor.
  13. LOA: pretty good movie, but doesn't it begin with hero running off the road at a high speed with a motorcycle? Okay, Ted (2012) turned out to be pretty funny. Should probably point out that the series is a Prequel of sorts, taking place while John is a teenager. Less structure. Throw in goofy parents and hot aunt. No Mila Kunis in her prime.
  14. Fuckin' A, Mrs. Lamb! You ain't alone. That said, sadly, it's hillbilly man gonna build back better. He's gonna bring in another wunderkind OC like Jason Garrett or Twinletoes Moore. Guys who specialize in offenses that work great against shitty teams. Guys he can give a ten percent raise to when he makes them Head Coach. Save a shitload of money. Maybe he should hire a Sideline Clock Management Specialist (SCMS) so that Fat Mike can't fuck that aspect of the game up. How much are Quarterback Whisperers these days? (psst - man covered, don't throw).
  15. Oher missed opportunities, by the way. How 'bout a news broadcast talking about all the bodies they found under that tank. Famous people, or politicians dating back to the last century - a Tillman family tradition, perhaps - D.B. Cooper? Maybe dot coulda seen a fucking football field full of corpses down in that hole. Fun stuff. None of that shit was real, by the way, IMHO. Same with most of the other seasons. They definitely dropped the ball on Indira's storyline. Instead we get a whole episode on Dot's dream and Linda's doll sanctuary. Half a show on musical hospital beds. A lot of parts were incredibly creative and interesting, then it would be like WTF?
  16. Seen spoken, heard, whatever - on a network production. Shit - all the time. Fuck occasionally, Dick yeah. Cock rare. Cocksucker rarer. Motherfucker? Don't think so. Could be a brain fart.
  17. So I often find that about 45min into a modern "comedy" that I haven't so much as chuckled once, and I'll turn it off. Just fininshed Ted, season 1 (7 episodes). Laughed my ass off. Plan to watch the movie soon.
  18. Jerry, Fat Mike, the Tri-demic is on the way. Vax up, baby. Vax up. The Demic gonna be bad for you two. Get vaxxed today. Extra booster even better
  19. The top creative minds could have landed other gigs and left before the writing was complete. (Pretty sure that's what happened to Breaking Bad and GOT.) The top writers knew it was the last season and they were looking out for #1, leaving the Director and a couple of other top people to plan an ending and script it out. They could immediately become buried in another story and wouldn't waste time coming back to finish this one off. The Director does the best he can, but at some point he has to put the story to bed and move on. Next season we find Munch, teeth fixed, as the family dine-in bodyguard/butler, wearing $5,000 suits and getting hundred dollar haircuts. "A man needs Steak Tartare," he'll say. After thinking about it, I think this was the most disappointing of the five seasons. It had some great moments. Started with a bang, ended with a one hour wimper.
