I just watched Children of Men. There was not much that appealed whatsoever. Great premise, horrible execution. I don't care that it was a good technical achievement. It wasn't very entertaining. Not terrible, but below average.

Upon request, my friend Gabe made this:

I liked it a lot, too. I'll definitely keep watching each week. There was a guy in the previews who looked like Marvin.

All you have to do is hold down the A (or I'd presume X on PS3) button on the play you want, then move the cursor to another play. your original play will be chosen. It's in the manual.

It actually happened during all three commercial breaks. I kind of think it was planned. Not sure why they'd do that though. They've been doing that 3 times a show for the last week and a half. They just showed Wilbon getting his makeup re-touched.

Well, my friend who got me into hockey in the first place just called, saying he went to Best Buy (who advertised that they'd have it at 2 P.M. today) and they had a sign up saying NHL 09 wouldn't be in till tomorrow. Fuck.

I haven't been able to find any concrete details for some reason. So is the show airing at 8 tonight, and then at 9 from here on out due to House starting?

Maybe it's different elsewhere int he state, but here in Moreno Valley, there are a bunch of cholos with raiders logos on their back windshields, on their houses, painted on curbs in front of their houses, and tattooed on their bodies. Those are the Raider Nation types I was referring to, since that describes every Raiders fan I've ever seen since moving here.

Looking through this thread- Really, what did you guys expect from the fucking Raiders? They're one of the worst organizations in professional sports, and they have the absolute worst fan base. Not worst as in unsupportive, but worst as in intolerable. Note: I'm not referring to Toby or Matt posting here in this thread, but rather the people I see in the community every day. That can't be right. There aren't any Mexicans!

When did Orton get a tattoo of words on the back of his right arm?

Since they referred to it as a "talent exchange" and have done it 2 weeks in a row, is this officially the transition of ECW being taped before Raw and the 2 brands sharing talent rather than ECW and Smackdown?

I guess I was right last night about Rey getting chest tattoos. Funny, since he said in his Superstar Ink article that he'd never get his chest tattooed.

After approximately 84 botched spots, Beth wins wins by stealing Hardcore Holly's finisher.

Just think, if not for Tony Moll and that blocked kick, it'd be 27-6 now.

That was beautiful. He didn't have control of the ball before he was down.

The room is spinning. Cut Tony Moll, like, yesterday.

I recommend downloading the demos of both. But based on last year's games, NHL 08 was the best sports game I had ever played 9and I didn't even follow hockey at the time) and NHL 2K8, while not terrible, was pretty mediocre. I'd go with EA's game. Oh, apparently the online leagues of last year are gone completely in favor of the EASHL being the only online league mode. Can anyone confirm this? If so, do we have enough people interested to field a team?

They really should have gone for one more passing play.

I just started really watching hockey after the All-Star break last eyar, and, aside from the playoffs, only Kings games. So I, too, know fuck-all, but will join. EDIT: In as the Mattitude.

Jennings just took a German suplex.

Wow. The Packers deserved all the other penalties they got, but there was not the slightest bit of PI there.

http://www.nfl.com/kickoff/story;jsessioni...mp;confirm=true The league announced Monday that all players will wear a special patch for the entire 2008 season containing the initials “GU” and the number “63” Suddenly, I'm relieved. If Rodgers can continue this type of play (and the Vikings keep fucking up with penalties) this should eb a good night.

No, that's incorrect. The GU on the field is for opening week. The patches are for the whole season.

They are for the whole season.

I think maybe the team thinks that if they go back far enough, they'll eventually turn back time like Superman and Brett will be back with the team. 1st and 33? Come on!
