SinceThe70s

Around 25 years ago I was privy (!) to a similar scenario from someone I knew briefly , except a stick was the facilitator of choice and I assumed it was a single use scenario. After reading this, perhaps I was wrong. And since we're on bedroom humor, here's a joke I heard two days ago: Why didn't the toilet paper cross the road? Because it got stuck in a crack!

Nice! If you're local, keep the updates coming! TJ seems like the odd man out. That bothers me.

He's been the best for as long as I can remember.

I haven't seen it in ages but I remember it looked like he was on the brink of disaster the whole way down.

I'm not sure if this was posted already, just came across it. Bill Burr is one of the few Patriots fans I can stomach. Seems like a genuine sports fan and not a band wagon guy. Even still, I'm glad this was a sucky day for him:

I regret if my tone came off as crybaby. I don't see it, but regardless that was never my intention. I was unaware of the 1972 season and would have appreciated your answer more without the supercilious attitude. But yeah, I never knew that so thanks. I stand by my comment that I've never seen a MLB standing that was rated by winning percentage over games ahead, even early season. Perhaps you can comb the newspapers and prove me wrong. I promise that if you do I will not shed a tear.

Good call.

Did you know she was showering before she got attacked by the shark? Yup, they found her head and shoulders on the beach!

I grew up with the greatest dog to ever walk the earth...a Black Lab/Shepperd mix. So I'm going with a big sloppy mutt! Sorry, I know this wasn't helpful since you don't want a big dog, but I couldn't resist a gratuitous plug for Pepper. But if you're still reading, Pepper had a great temperament and I think that came from the Black Lab side.

What exactly am I looking up? When was the last time a baseball season was determined based on one team playing more games than another? In season, when the number of games differ between teams you can look at percentage or games behind. I've never seen baseball standings that are based on winning percentage. Of course there's nothing stopping anyone from publishing standings based on that. It's just something I've never seen.

Maybe I'm taking this out of context, but are you suggesting that Ralph and the Peguilas didn't/don't want to win? And that Phil Jackson installed the triangle with Knicks because he didn't believe it would succeed?

Great topic. I listen/sample most of what gets posted in the various music threads if I haven't heard them before. But this thread is tough to keep up with...I just don't have the time to listen to all of these full albums (much as I'd like to). Unsolicited suggestion: in addition to posting the album link, post the time of the song that will make us want to hear the rest of the album if it's new to us.

All the baseball standings I've ever looked at go by games behind. Winning percentage is just for ties. Are you from Canada? Maybe that's the difference in how standings are shown.

If you never heard this band, 12:30 in is a good start: "Gotta Keep a Runnin".

I'll be a little surprised if Frazier goes to the Colts. Not saying he's not qualified or would be a bad hire, but I think that fanbase will expect something more after the McDaniels fiasco. Reich would fit the bill IMO

You bet. It won't consume me, if I miss something I won't be upset. But besides sports, the Family Guy and Better Call Saul I'm not much of a TV watcher and I've watched the Winter Olympics since I was a kid so this will be my go to TV for the next few weeks. These are the events that I want to catch at least part of: Downhill Skiing Ski jumping Moguls Half-pipe Bobsled/Luge/Skeleton Short-track skating Ice hockey (only a metal round or US elimination game) Curling

The hesitation from Pederson after Foles says Philly Philly is priceless. We second guess coaches ad nauseam and with the benefit of hindsight, but here we see a coach make a gutsy 4th down call and when his QB suggests the trick play he's like um, well, uh, er...sure, why not! Great stuff.

Fun fact II: the NFC East is the only division where every team has won a SB.

This thread is kinda long and I'm not sure if search worked but has Jack Johnson really been overlooked? I need to correct that.

My condolences Just kidding, World or Land? If it's World and you're not a Disney regular, understand that you might need to plan some stuff well in advance. I'm not a Disney regular and have suffered a few times as a result, including a few weeks ago.

I wonder if whoever was filming is a Pats hater. I assumed he was trying to get the bar exploding after Brady pulled off another miracle, but when it didn't happen he kept filming for awhile anyway.

Took a quick trip to Disney a few weeks ago to see my sons high school marching band. We had a nightmarish delay on the way down and ended up with $600 in flight vouchers that we have to use within a year. Skiing Vail in March with a few friends. Tentative summer plan is a trip to the Canadian Rockies in July. Wife doesn't know it yet, but I'm hoping to use the $600 vouchers for Bills-Ravens

Maybe take a drive up the coastline to Boothbay or Bar Harbor. A long time ago I drove the coastline coming south from Calais and it was stunning, although north of Bar Harbor may be what I'm remembering.

I'm so old I thought this was some obscure reference to an old David Bowie song. EDIT: oops, I should've clicked the second link before posting
