  1. I'd say it's better than both
  2. It was a Canadian show from the 80s.
  3. They basically admitted that last season was a disaster for Earl, so they're going back to the old format. I'll watch 30 Rock tonight, but I still don't like it
  4. I think there has been quite an overreaction. CBright starts a thread, and suddenly the board is dying? Come on. I'm here much of the day since I work from home. I go to WWE, because I watch WWE. General Wrestling, because I've watched a lot of wrestling. Current Events, b/c I'm into politics. Sports, b/c I watch sports. Movies/DVDs/Television, b/c I watch movies and TV. I do not have a DVD player. I also check out TCS and General Chat occasionally. I skip over the folders I did not name. My favourite posters are the ones who contribute to the discussion at hand. Matt Young is really awful. He seems to delight in playing the victim and feeling sorry for himself, and I don't see him add much to the boards. cabbageboy should be punched in the face. I also really don't like the posters in CE who constantly call for Marvin's head. He should be allowed to have his opinions, no matter how much people disagree with them or think they're stupid. I don't have a favourite mod. I can name all the mods. All of the mods have their good traits and bad traits. I think making Agent in charge of a folder that's supposed to be unmoderated is stupid, and I still disagree with the fact that the new mods were chosen primarily because of a chat they participate in. I've been at a form of this board since it was at Delphi. I still watch a lot of wrestling. I love WWE 24-7. There was no time when the board was at its best. There have always been good and bad things about the message board. I do like the fact that the board seems less moderated than it did before. I enjoy the discussion. Allow flaming outside of TCS.
  5. Seattle doesn't have a hockey team. Or a basketball team anymore.
  6. I think a McCain spokesman getting owned on CNN is a weekly tradition at this point.
  7. Evan Goldberg wrote Superbad
  8. Apparently, it was hard for them to get Lords, but after some prodding and reading the script, she wanted in. I don't know who Evan Stone is.
  9. The Sharks are expected to be one of the best teams in the NHL
  10. Do you miss it....IN ANGER!
  11. The Redskins won it in January 1992, so I guess Minneapolis technically has been waiting the longest now.
  12. They take down spreads daily for re-adjustment At the site my friend uses, they never put it back. I think some places have it at -700.
  13. Selena Gomez formed a production company?
  14. He's doing it in the Chocolate Socket, so let him go nuts.
  15. When did Brody become Vanhalen?
  16. What city with four teams now has the longest drought- Denver?
  17. Don't you get tired of playing the victim? It's the fact that you like the Bulls and the Lakers, not that you like two teams, idiot. Even though I like the Leafs and Canucks, I don't agree with that. While I probably won't be following the Nets too closely this year, it's good to see Yi get off to a great start. CDR didn't score though, which sucks
  18. Was it cool or what?
  19. They should, but I was rushing out and totally didn't think to do that.
  20. We have a winner! New Orleans Saints choose kicker Hartley and punter Pakulak Posted by Mike Triplett, The Times-Picayune October 29, 2008 4:32PM Glann Pakulak, who has signed with seven NFL teams but never played in an NFL game, is the Saints' third punter this season.Kicker Garrett Hartley and punter Glenn Pakulak emerged as the newest Saints on Wednesday after they outshined several other applicants during group tryouts at the team's practice facility. Neither has appeared in an NFL game. Hartley, a 22-year-old rookie, was with the Denver Broncos this summer as an undrafted free agent out of Oklahoma, but he was released before training camp. Pakulak, a 28-year-old journeyman, has preseason and NFL Europe experience, having bounced around with six other teams since 2003. He earned his first regular-season gig Wednesday. "I was really hoping if I had a good performance, they would overlook the fact that I'm a rookie and look at the fact that I played at a school like Oklahoma, and I've kicked in big-time situations, " said Hartley, who drilled a 58-yarder through the uprights and into the back wall of the Saints' indoor facility at one point Wednesday, according to Pakulak. "I'm just excited to have the opportunity to go out and kick a football. That's what I've been doing the last eight years, and that's what I know how to do." Hartley made 32 of 35 field-goal attempts in his final two seasons at Oklahoma, though he did miss five extra-point attempts out of 76 tries as a senior. The Saints have had a short leash on their kickers this year, most recently cutting rookie Taylor Mehlhaff after three games this week. The team also tried out veteran Dave Rayner and Arena Football League standout A.J. Haglund on Wednesday. Two weeks ago, they brought in veterans Billy Cundiff and Aaron Elling for workouts. It's possible the team will use this bye week to give Hartley an extended audition before deciding whether they want to keep him ahead of the more experienced choices. Hartley said he understands there are no assurances in this league, but he said that pressure will only help him perform at the highest level "day in and day out." "We were impressed with both Garrett and Glenn throughout the competitive sessions, and we will continue to evaluate the positions closely throughout the remainder of the season, " Saints General Manager Mickey Loomis said in a statement. Pakulak beat out veterans Josh Miller and Scott Player and rookie Waylon Prather in a tryout Wednesday. The former Kentucky standout said it was "good to finally be in the right place at the right time, so to speak, " after so many missed opportunities over the years. He most recently was with Oakland this preseason, where he averaged 45 yards on 15 punts. However, he didn't stand much of a chance against five-time All-Pro punter Shane Lechler. "It's been a long road. It's probably easier for me to name the teams I haven't been with than the teams I have been with, " said Pakulak, who has spent time with Oakland, Chicago, Tennessee, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Seattle and the Amsterdam Admirals. He said cattle calls like the one he experienced Wednesday are nothing new to him. "I just went out there and tried to stay relaxed, " Pakulak said. "I've done this so long where it's gotten to the point that I have nothing to lose. When you feel that way, you do your best."
  21. That's not what happened. Smith said he felt showing them naked would It because Kevin Smith has a cult following, so they're probably trying to broaden his audience a bit.
  22. Pissed that my DVR cut out the last 6 minutes of the game, the portion I watched was awesome. Can't believe they came back from 2-0 on Brodeur on the road. Luckily I can DVR the replay. Ron Wilson is God
  23. The spread at a site my friend goes to was -500 for Obama, but then they took it down b/c I think I think so many people were betting for him.
  24. I'm waiting for them to announce open tryouts. You too could be an NFL player! New Orleans Saints auditioning kickers and punters by Mike Triplett, The Times-Picayune Wednesday October 29, 2008, 9:28 AM The Saints are auditioning several kickers and punters today, according to league sources. Among the candidates at kicker are Billy Cundiff, Aaron Elling, A.J. Haglund, Garrett Hartley and Dave Rayner. Cundiff and Elling worked out with the team earlier, the others are coming in today. At punter, they're looking at Josh Miller and Glenn Pakulak, among others. We'll keep trying to track down some more names, and check back here for bios on these players in a little while. I don't know who any of these people are, maybe they won the punt, pass and kick contest?
  25. I think we were talking about it, and Czech just decided to do it. I did not participate in one draft.
