  1. He's standing on his toes and still 6" shorter
  2. My buddy hates that commercial so much that he will come back into the room when he hears it just to yell at the TV. He recently learned he'll be having a daughter in a few months. I told him I'll be helping her with her first word: dad-uh
  3. I think lack of availability due to the coach's mtg is a big contributor. Not sure I'm buying the "it's cheaper to use in-house guys" line of thinking. I'm guessing on-air talent has some kind of "special event compensation" in their contracts and that they're not working an extra Monday night, including whatever prep work they did, for fun. Even if the MNF on-air guys are doing this pro bono, I doubt ESPN would have had to shell out money to the coaches. ESPN: Hey corch X, you wanna be on our Coaches Film Room broadcast for the championship game? Corch X: You going to pay me to come to this? [ESPN looks to dozens of other corches salivating at the opportunity to be in front of every current and future recruit across the country for 3+ hours] ESPN: Nah, we're good.
  4. And that new kid is killing himself on the recruiting trail after being scared to death watching the game last night.
  5. Yeah, I looked this up earlier and was very disappointed to see they swapped in the MNF crew for the coaches. An article wondered aloud if they struggled to find four coaches to do this. I don't buy that. I'd imagine coaches would love the opportunity to put themselves in front of every recruit and future recruit in the country.
  6. They swapped the ESPN coaches corner broadcast for some MNF commentator broadcast for tonight's game. What channel is the Sushihorn corner broadcast going to be on?
  7. MNF Film Room Replacing the Coaches Film Room broadcast. Very disappointing: https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2019/1/3/18166653/national-championship-coaches-film-room-monday-night-football
  8. Ref's voice/delivery makes it sound like he's telling on someone
  9. Per a 2016 ESPN article: "It seems that some officials have been interpreting the crown of the helmet to mean the tip-top portion of the helmet only," NCAA Football Secretary-Rules Editor Rogers Redding said in a release. "We want everyone to understand that the crown of the helmet starts from the area above the facemask to the dome of the helmet."
  10. [Not my wife disclaimer] Setting: FedEx Print/Ship Center. Couple in front of me discussing batch printing pamphlets with the cashier. Wife: When it's done, are you able to ship them to me? Or do I have to come here to pick them up? [FedEx Rep makes a wry smile. Husband chuckles under his breath] FedEx Rep: Ummm, yes, ma'am, we can arrange to have the final product shipped to you.
  11. Recommend adding Rare downtown to your steakhouse list for consideration. BLT is very good though. For more casual spots in Gtown, I like Thunderburger. Tombs is kind of interesting as a college bar and near the Exorcist steps. Martin's Tavern for the JFK history. Il Canale or Filomena if you're looking for Italian.
  12. I used to dislike these, but over time they grew on me to the point that I crack up for nearly every scene. And the Tac Amplifier (youtube not allowing embedding, but worth the watch) Bell + Howell Tac Amplifie I'm going to submit my resume to Bell + Howell. I may not have the minimum number of tactical situation experiences to cut it though.
  13. You are at a very large building with lots of entrances, road construction nearby, and one way streets getting in and out, so you send the person picking you up a google maps pin with the precise location of where you want them to meet you. You explain that the meeting point you sent is at a particular entrance that will simplify their drive in and out as well as simplify the pickup, so it's important to understand that the pin is precise. The driver insists on having the address so that they can plug it into their GPS. You tell them to just drive to the pin, but they insist on the address. They call saying they are stuck due to a construction detour. This is the first sign they aren't using your pin. Eventually, they arrive, but you do not see them. They keep telling you they are at the pin despite the fact that you are standing at it within 10'. When they say "at the pin" they mean "when you zoom out far enough that you can see the entire city". They are actually on the other side of the massive building, which you cannot walk across due to security checkpoints. You start walking around the building and end up driving through a bunch of one way streets with construction detours.
  14. As RPM reminds us, get the peaches ready. ItsHappening.gif https://deadline.com/2018/11/deadwood-movie-begins-production-hbo-david-milch-1202496154/ Looks like they were able to get pretty much everyone back... except two of my favorites. Interesting Powers Boothe trivia: Also, Richardson is no longer with us. Interesting story there too: I hope EB was there to give the eulogy. So many great characters and actors. I see parallels to Seinfeld in that you have one actor (Jerry / Seth) holding things together while the rest of the characters do their thing. I think there's a thread here talking about not recognizing actors/actresses in roles. Robin Weigert (Jane Cannery) would be an excellent example of looking radically different in and out of character.
  15. Wonder if HBO would give her a look. Not sure her core demographics and HBO audience overlap much. Could create a pretty compelling show / interview series with the latitude a network like HBO offers.
  16. I imagine it's a combination of: - risk of qbs fumbling when they have gotten so used to shotgun snaps, especially with the pressure of everyone crowding the line and focusing on getting the snap count right - like to have fwd momentum via a FB/RB - aggy interior DL is probably the best part of their D
  17. Maybe this is what they meant:
  18. Big boy defense on display
  19. I thought I was the only one that thought that
