  1. Ilia vacates so Volk and Lopes for the title. Volk and Diego should be a good one. Do you vacate without the promise of a shot at Islam? What do you think of that matchup? Ilia just feels too small for Islam but Volk gave Islam all he could handle in their first go round. Super compelling fight. JDM gets a shot at Belal. I don’t think he can keep Belal off of him, but we’ll see. Hopefully he can make it a striking match.
  2. Coffee Mate wins the Super Bowl. That tongue commercial is horrific
  3. I heard that this morning as well. What an overinflated sense of self worth. Douche.
  4. Just watched this. I had someone telling me just last weekend that this was better than the first. That person was wrong. This is not a good movie.
  5. Praying for you. If you’ve read the thread, I’ve shared my experience (sounds similar to yours), but I’m happy to share any of my experiences as I’m 13 months post-prostatectomy if it would be helpful.
  6. Turned out to be a good card. I’m a fan of Jiri, happy he got that win. Pereira is just not a good matchup for him. Gotta find someone else. Merab’s gas tank is unreal. Umar looked good until he gassed. Really good fight. Islam is just a machine. His fight streak company is impressive - Jones, Anderson, Mighty Mouse. That’s good company.
  7. Just because it’s not a secret doesn’t mean it’s not soft
  8. Bummer about Arman. Got my hopes up for 2 seconds that Do Bronx would get the call, but Moicano gets the shot.
  9. Same. D’Onofrio’s Kingpin is such a great villain. Can’t believe they wasted him in echo.
  10. No. PK is such a good dude that he was willing to make it work for the good of the team. But Lake screwed that up (which he did early and often). When Petersen stepped down and UW promoted Lake, I was cautiously optimistic because PK stuck around. But Lake was such a douche that he couldn’t find anyone from the outside to coach the offense and then PK noped out. I enjoy reading the evolution in the “what would you say you do here” thread where people finally come around to “oh, we do have a top 5 DC”.
  11. Holy cow, this. Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one?
  12. Finally got around to watching this. I loved the original NBC shorts and stayed away because I didn’t think that could translate to a series (let alone three seasons). I was so wrong. This series was fantastic. ”I’m trying to build bridges here!” ”You couldn’t build Jeff Bridges.”
  13. Batman Begins is the best movie in Nolan’s Batman trilogy Reservoir Dogs is Tarantino’s best film.
  14. Like a lot of others, Porky’s. Other one I haven’t seen mentioned was Fast Times. I was probably 7 or 8 when I saw that for the first time. Pretty much any horror movie on premium cable. Whoever called out Dark Night of the Scarecrow, wow I had forgotten that one. I don’t remember much about it, but remember not being able to sleep after watching at a friend's house.
  15. The BIG has done a hell of a job of protecting their legacy members. These jackhole refs actually came back and reviewed one in Michigan's favor last week against Washington after the next play had been run. The penalty disparity for the west coast teams is noticeable as well
  16. I heard someone say they should have had the Stranger end up to be Saruman. That would have been great as we see him doing good things and fighting evil, and then we see his corruption later. I get why they made him “Grand Elf” but would have been way better if it was Saruman.
  17. As my kids are now older, I’ve seen fewer of the newer ones so for me, it’s Ratatouille (an amazing movie, not just for an animated one), Incredibles and Wall E. Opening montage in Up is amazing, but the rest of the movie is just ok for me. Toy Stories are fine.
  18. I’m in SoCal (OC) so I’m not sure I’m going to be able to help with specifics on MDs. I will say, we interviewed 4 or 5 and had a lot of questions regarding how many procedures they’ve done, would it be them personally or a fellow, rates of recovery, nerve-sparing process, etc. I knew I didn’t want radiation therapy unless it absolutely looked necessary. From what I understand (by all means, do your research), RT is hard on you and mutates the tissue in the area such that if you do have to go in for a subsequent surgery, then there’s little chance of salvaging anything (particularly nerves) so “function” is highly unlikely and incontinence is highly likely. My thought was the chance for best outcome was surgery first and then RT if necessary. If it can be a help to you or anyone else, I’m happy to share anything here about procedure itself, recovery, lingering effects (“function”, incontinence), things I didn’t expect, etc. So feel free to fire away as questions or concerns arise.
  19. With today’s performance, there are a lot of UDub fans that’ll escort Jedd out of town.
  20. Praying for you JR. I also went radical prostatectomy via da Vinci at 48. Gleason score of 7. My Decipher genomic test came back that I had a more aggressive type so glad we were on it early. 9 months post surgery and I’m pretty well back to normal. Happy to share any of my experience if helpful. Feel free to ask away here or shoot me a DM.
  21. I know the usual suspects on YouTube are crushing this, but I’m enjoying this season. They need to tighten the storylines though. For example, unless Theo ends up being the Witch King, just clip his storyline. Also I’m not sure I need the political intrigue in Numenor either (but I haven’t read anything beyond the Hobbit and LOTR so perhaps it’s super important). Still hoping the Stranger isn’t Gandalf, and this Dark Wizard isn’t somehow Saruman. The one thing that stands out that really bugs me is Galadriel’s overly breathy voice with the rolling of her R’s.
  22. Yeah I hate to bash a Gaucho, but Evans no business being an Olympian. Not new news, but USA Volleyball (or whomever) needs to figure out the qualification process.
  23. Praying for you Gourmand. I was in this spot about a year ago with an elevated PSA (at 48 yo). Did another 30 days later to confirm, then biopsy (not gonna lie, it sucks). From there it was figuring out treatment options and interviewing MDs. I am now ~7 months post prostatectomy. Happy to share my experiences if helpful.
  24. Caught the last 2/3’s if Rushmore early this morning. Love that movie. This may send me on a Wes Anderson binge. “I’ll take punctuality.”
