USC Wuz Robbed!

Is Burn After Reading supposed to be bad? I'm surprised with that cast and the plot that there hasn't been more expectations for it.

That's exactly why I'm a fan of the Chargers. It's hard not to get caught up in the excitement of their success, since after moving here to San Diego, they started getting good, and people got more and more excited as years went on. But I always kept Bears #1. I do know I rooted for the Raiders since I was a kid, first getting interested in football, mostly because of the mystique and the tradition of it all. I was happy as hell when the Raiders made the Super Bowl, but after they got slaughtered and started going down the toilet, I stopped talking about them, and went into that closet. For the record, when Raiders and Chargers play each other I do make it a point to root for the Raiders. So I guess Raiders are really #2. Chargers are more like "Hey that local team..."

Shit. I forgot about the Shuffle, but that comes with the dominant SB team point anyways.

What I mean is a smashmouth, defense-oriented team with a rich tradition. The Bears fit that bill, although I think the Steelers have a bit more tradition. And much better quarterback play. Unfortunately I'd agree on both counts. Pittsburgh established themselves as a dynasty in the 70s and it stuck ever since. Since the NFL came to be (post AFL merger) the Bears had done almost nothing of note outside a few strong seasons. At least we have the arguably most dominant Super Bowl team ever? That something to hang a hat on?

Aww I should have finished my draft then... then you'll see real firepower.

So you'd like the Bears if they weren't the Bears?

Since my fan allegiance is being pondered here: 1. Bears 2. Chargers/Raiders (Chargers by virtue of living here in San Diego, but I actually prefer the Raiders.) I suppose I'd be considered a bandwagon fan of the Chargers, but my interest in Bears and Raiders have never really gone away. For the Raiders, there were just not much to be excited about in recent years, so of course I wasn't talking about them much. But Bears #1 all the way.

He has a screwed up knee that he's rehabbing.

It's a big closet that people are coming out of.

I saw you speak of that. I'm glad there's another Raiders fan around in addition to the others, but it is possible to like more than one team. However, consider my comment a lighthearted joke. Sorry it wasn't so applicable to you.

Judging by the Mets, no. Not "any number of relievers"...

You mean you aren't already losing sleep over Tom Brady's injury? That seems to be the popular opinion of Boston fans.

If Kent is such a cancer, why not get rid of him? I don't think it's like his production overrides his baggage.

My next pick is: Robert Redford

Fuck that. That game ruled.

I wasn't making a true comparison. I didn't think they were that much alike. But since people kept comparing the two, I thought why not do little research thanks to pro-football-reference.com, and see what I find. I simply posted what I found, and left the conclusions up to the readers. I suppose I'd have to agree with you, however you do have some guys that were thrown to wolves and they turned out fine.

Umm.. read my post again. I mentioned all this... well not the bench part but when I say he only started 6 games in the first two years, that's naturally assumed. That's why I combined his first two years, because those two years can give you a better comparison to VY's one rookie year. And Vince Young was 24 when he first assumed full time starting role.

Man I don't know what you negative nancy's are talking about. It was a good pilot.

Plus The Riddler isn't a major villain in the overall scheme of things, and you're sort of casting a huge shadow over the role by hiring a big name like Johnny Depp.

Javier Bardem

Why was Choshu removed? What happened there in NJ?

Just stop. Your original point was killed dead by Bob Barron. So instead of no-selling it and using a dumb as fuck example to follow it... accept that you're a moron, and move on.

Am I the only guy who wants Depp nowhere near the film? He'd make a horrible Riddler IMO. (I don't buy the rumors anyways but I'm putting that out there)

He reminded me of Brock Lesnar. I just hope he doesn't sound like him when he talks. That's just fine and dandy.

Let's compare VY to Steve McNair, since that seems to be the popular thing- I will combine McNair's first two years together (as he only played 13 games, starting 6 or so total in that span) What all this means, I don't know. Similar?
