  1. It's funny, but wow that guy is a dick.
  2. And with all the complaints about Lalime, they still managed to win the division last year with him on the team. Now I know people seem to hate that defense lately since they got bumped in the first round, but that result clearly can't be placed on his shoulders. Best case scenario with a better backup option last year, they wind up as the 2 seed instead of the 3. Then they're right back in the playoffs playing Philly in a series that he has no effect on.
  3. I'm flying at the end of the month. Unfortunately, I don't think there will be any moving sidewalks in those airports.
  4. I can't help but wonder how much of it is a sympathy vote, but either way, it's another black eye for NBC/Leno.
  5. Conklin isn't even worth mentioning. He was here for a month's worth of regular season hockey, not nearly long enough to know what, if any impact the organization had on him.
  6. I have faith in the typical drunken south Boston fool. They'll find a way.
  7. I've always pictured this kind of thing happening when some drunk gets a hold of one of those green monster seats out here in Boston. I've never actually been up there, but any time they show the seats on tv, it looks like there isn't too much up there to block people. Then again, I'm sure it's something they considered very seriously when designing those seats.
  8. I love walking really fast on those things and then having that awkward adjustment as you get back to the non-moving ground. I really want to run across one of those things just to see if I'd fall flat on my face at the end. If a some people get a few laughs, I'm fine with it.
  9. They should turn that hour special into some sort of reality show where the teams compete for his services.
  10. Has there ever been anyone of that status that has hit free agency in any sport? Arod fits that, but with the structure of baseball, there were really only 2 teams in the picture.
  11. Especially since his parents look exactly the same. They have to be brother and sister.
  12. It's clear sailing once you make it past the falls.
  13. Just wait until we find out that it was actually staged and they are going to start taking the Vince McMahon approach.
  14. Congratulations, you've just made your "sport" and even bigger joke.
  15. True, but with all the money they've thrown away already, there's going to be a lot less in it for the next host.
  16. I'm not sure how legit this story is, but Leno may in fact have killed the Tonight Show. Who in their right mind would want to go anywhere near that hosting gig if Leno gets booted now?
  17. The one's I saw quoted in here made me think of it more in terms of the comedy angle. Biff immediately came to mind.
  18. I'm going to watch this later when I get out of work, but I have to ask. Did Biff make it?
  19. Christopher Nolan's association with Michael Caine is pretty obvious, but it's interesting to see how he uses a lot of actors in many of his movies. First it was Christian Bale and now Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy. If I was an actor, I would want to be cast in one of his movies because I would be set for life. This month looks pretty solid. I'm not sure I'll see any in theaters (I still haven't made it to Toy Story 3), but I'm very curious about a couple of these. Inception obviously tops the list. For some reason, Despicable Me looks like one that could be some fun. Then there are a few that I'm sure I'll catch on basic cable down the line. I'm kind of curious to see just how bad Predators will be. The Rudd-Carrell combo should be enough for me to watch Dinner for Schmucks when TBS starts airing it constantly in about 3 years.
  20. We're talking about the same country where coffee cups have to have a "warning: coffee may be hot" message. I'm sure she'll win some money.
  21. Sweet, I get to be Venkman.
  22. I brought it up simply because it is what I work with, so it was the first example that came to mind.
  23. Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god, you say yes!
  24. It's not that simple. The idea is that these types of injuries put you at risk of developing that type of condition. Even if it is a risk factor, it is no guarantee. All obese people don't wind up developing diabetes and all smokers don't suffer some sort of cardiovascular disease, but those are definitely risk factors for those conditions. It wouldn't have to be the majority of players developing those symptoms, just a significantly higher rate than the normal population.
  25. I wonder how many people even know which company is putting out these movies anymore. There are so many animated films coming out now, I know I don't have a clue who is making half of them.
