  1. The two 20+ spreads this week are teams I've already burned 😠
  2. Newcastle open the scoring at Anfield

    SNL 45

    We get the same complaints every year, and I share some of those but will stay loyal. It is what it is, will always have some hits, some misses and mostly just ok sketches. I admit without DVR, I would have been gone ages ago. I hardly ever watch the musical guest and quite often skip the monologue. I mainly just admire what they can pull off in a live setting with just 5 days prep.
  4. And Mike Evans is an afterthought now?
  5. Been to both for work a lot. My first impulse was Charlotte because I'm an east coast guy and the getaways RIP mentioned are nice. But Nashville is surrounded by lakes and rivers. And when you factor in air travel getaways, Nashville pulls ahead despite a smaller airport. Traffic in Charlotte can be pretty terrible. Lastly, just a guess that you'll get more house for your money in TN.

    NCAA Week 3

    Some good call-outs on favorites above. UCF has been anticipating this game for years, though Stanford will get its starting QB back which is probably why the line is normal. Knights rarely get a chance to send a message to voters & CFP committee, plus a long-ass trip and hot weather for the Cards
  7. We look like OU out there, other than the fact flags are being thrown on us
  8. "If 2 LSU Fans Get Divorced, Will They Still be Cousins?" sign gets screen time Also the toilet/LA state map "Coincidence?" sign
  9. Occasional crowd shots on morning SportsCenter. Also they aired a chunk of Herbie's walk around with Sam. I won't spoil it but he has a solid STFU answer for people who question his passing ability.
  10. ^ Entries still open. Also, this deserves to out-trend the Zeke extension in today's news:
  11. If it's OK with @BigOrange1, we can take entries all the way up to Sunday morning. I doubt a lot of people will risk their pick of Chicago/Green Bay on Thursday
  12. They stopped doing this a few years ago. Most campuses need that space before a night game. Stage breakdown begins immediately after the show, takes a few hours to clear everything but the area can be opened pretty quickly
  13. Maybe too soft/slow for some, but I love everything Black Belt Eagle Scout has put out. Saddle Creek Records which I think was founded by Bright Eyes years ago. New album out today...
  14. Plenty of time to sign up people
  15. They won't pass up a chance for Austin with a huge opponent, which never happens as we know. They won't pass up Syracuse given the many ESPN connections up there (the AD came from ESPN programming a few years back). Then they get Notre Dame at Georgia on 9/21. But UCF will be aggrieved that they bypass their big Stanford game on the 14th
  16. Shaggy Eliminator pool is here if anyone wants $50 of my money
  17. Joined, remind me how to pay We can probably slide a link to this thread into a main FB topic if we're not getting a lot of entries by next week
  18. Yeah, this is horrible management behavior, but it's also a great example of the collateral damage that can result from such a massive tragedy. Like I'm sure a lot of people will never eat at Subway again regardless of the chain's behavior or quality post-Jared. And if Beau Vine is a POS, which I kind of doubt, then that applicant is better off not working there. I can actually understand his sentiment more than the tOSU and Pitt fans trying to propagate anti-PSU threads on a Texas board year after year. So many links to the derpiest of PSU boards, or toothless "scandals" like the one to start this thread. But since we're here, I think PSU loses at least 3 games this year, and Franklin will skate into a lower pressure job rather than keep treading water as the 3rd-5th best team in the league.
  19. Bryce's son finally arrived and he's back with the team tonight. Krew Aron Harper - is it possible to be a douche as a newborn? The other babies in maternity ward probably already hate him

    Can someone explain the Taco Tuesday move, or do I even want to know. I spend more time reading this thread than watching the show, but it's getting to the time of year where I actually follow it, especially if there are some girls left and the main douche has been evicted
  21. My story is lame and yes I'm a lame newbie fan, but the Manchester City 2011 title run was actually covered somewhat by ESPN and as a Philly guy, I can relate to a fan base that really cares but suffers for decades. So I was happy for City that year and since have realized that they are simply fun to watch. They don't dive or play dirty, they certainly don't park the bus. I admit I can't make myself care all that much when they lose. I'm sure they have garbage local fans and I know they're owned by a Middle East monarch so that's not as easy to brush off as a US slimy car dealer type. I've read about the salary accusations and to me it comes off like SEC teams bitching at each other (also why is this not better regulated?). Bottom line, the quality of play in EPL is outstanding and the commercial free broadcasts are a great way to start weekend mornings. It's fun to have a team to root for and I don't blame anyone for picking top 6 to stay interested all year. I'll save my hate for Mets/Cowboys/Celtics/NYR.
  22. Tirico said six injuries, none serious. This was about 30 min after players had left course
  23. Pretty sure most restaurants offer full menu at the bar, as lots of people do exactly what you're describing. It will be more crowded on a Friday night of course. Craftsteak is right there, I haven't been in years but it used to be terrific.
  24. ^ That's how I read it at this point. On #6 above, the van could have even been turning right onto 2222, same direction as Ced, and still wouldn't have been enough time for him to stop from a high speed.
  25. Mt Bonnell / 2222 is a traffic light - either the bike or minivan must have run a red light, I guess? Even late at night I doubt that signal would be blinking yellow
