I thought Rexy had pretty well drowned already. Put Ortman in.

Add Harvey AND Groves. Prioritize much? Gene, why didn't da Bears draft a QB? Any QB? Is it time for 90 runs/game in Chitown?

Regardless of how well Flacco pans out, the Ravens certainly made out like bandits in drafting him, largely thanks to Jacksonville. They came out of the first round with a QB, an extra 3rd and 4th round pick, all for what really only cost them a 6th rounder.

All that's pretty true. I think I've said it before, but I really only choose a Mac because of the OS. I prefer it to Windows that much that it's worth whatever premium I pay on top of the PC. Security and effortless use would probably be a distant second.

That's the first album in this thing by a band I've never heard of.

He's gonna be pissed if Ravenbomb takes The Rising now.

Idiotic. I think "For You" has more lyrics than the entire Born in the U.S.A. album. I like verbose Bruce. Which albums were taken already? Born To Run, Darkness On The Edge of Town, Nebraska. There has been more Bruce taken than any other artist, by far. Not really. I count 5 albums now, same as Pink Floyd, and one more than Bowie or GnR. And RHR took 3 of them!

Yeah that's real classy, make fun of a bunch of people getting killed. Let's start in on 9/11 next. Let's not punish the city because one guy is an asshole. I would have no problem with referring to Swift and Sene as the broken, useless remnants of the twin towers, if you really want to go that route. Seemed less applicable, though. I don't want to punish the city, but I would like to see everything go really poorly for the franchise as soon as it gets dragged out of Seattle. None of the center prospects they wasted time drafting ever pan out. Durant leaves after his rookie deal is up. Sprewell shows up at the grocery store in an afro wig and a balaclava and chokes PJ Carlesimo again. 30 wins becomes a goal for a landmark season. The people of OKC aren't at fault, but the best thing to happen short of the move somehow falling through would be for this relocation project to fail miserably, embarrass Stern, and change future NBA operations accordingly. Uhhh.....no. I don't wish for my city to fall flat on its face like that. That would be a HORRIBLE thing to happen. Besides the people are going to support the team and it'll have high attendance so it'll pan out at the beginning at least. You're missing the point. They could be moving to Birmingham or Fargo for all I care. If the team succeeds in OKC, then the ends successfully justify the idiotic means. You'll end up with more billionaires buying perfectly acceptably profitable teams with histories, moving them, and the league doing nothing to stop it. We're going to end up with OKC Basketballers racing to the bottom against the Pittsburgh Rockets and the Las Vegas Blazers.

the fact that Vanessa doesn't need the money wouldnt have mattered if it were Mark's kid, she would have gotten Child Support from him anyway unless she declined it (and who would do that?) And Vanessa just seemed wacked out to me..she might have been ready for a kid but she was ready under the assumption Mark would be with her. Her successful career is down the drain now for sure. Who you crappin'? A few months of maternity leave and she'd be fine. There's day care for kids less than a year old now; my boss has been taking her 9-month old there since he was maybe 5 months old. You sound like Dan Quayle talking about single moms.

Wacked out? Garner's character had a really successful career and seemed completely ready to take on a kid, both fiscally and emotionally (loved the scene in the mall). Why would the kid need child support when it was obviously Garner who was paying for the house and supporting the life she and Bateman had?

If they do change the team name, I'd like a singular noun, like the Jazz. Maybe the Oklahoma City Bullshit. Or the Oklahoma City Explosion.

joe cocker'd That's the only one I could think of, yeah. I remember hearing some Our Lady Peace ones that were pretty much the worst thing ever. That is to be expected with Our Lady Peace, though.

The hell kind of answer do you want from freaking Marvin? they shouldve watched the horror movie in HD... I think Juno liking the Stooges and what-not is a significant part of her character, not just "oh I'm the COOLEST WRITER EVER" wankery. There's a bit of would-be hipsterism in there, but it's not really clear that she really is familiar with everything she references all the time. I think this has been brought up in the thread earlier, but come on--a girl who loves the Stooges and has never heard Sonic Youth? Half of who she is is posture, and a large part of the movie is showing how she responds to actually having something more than posture happen in her life, and how that breaks through her defense mechanisms.

The hell kind of big plot twist did you want at the end of freaking Juno? I still like this movie quite a bit. I even read Diablo Cody's stripper book, which was decent, and had some truly pleasant anecdotes about Russian guys jizzing.

Calderon selling a little bump like a shotgun blast to get an offensive foul on Keyon Dooling, and the Raptors have the ball down 1 with 9 seconds left. I just found out I have NBA TV!

Who on earth does a good Beatles cover?

Mmm, OS X. Tastes like happy. I will eat the fuck apple.

Same. I never should have betrayed my one truest love.

I hope you get Worcestershire sauce in your peehole.

OH YOU FUCKING COCKHOLSTER

Terrible decision every step of the way. I'm sure the team would be supported in OKC, but that's not exactly the point.

Quite the saab story.

You get a driver for that Corolla, and then we'll talk.

This is our country. For biking! 30k is plenty to own and operate a not terribly fancy car unless you live somewhere with a really high standard of living, so it's not really an issue of wealth. Though biking does give you a nice chunk to spend elsewhere.
