    Actually I believe I used the term "CWM group" more than Dave himself

    The OAO Mystery Science Theater 3000 Thread

    I've been ignoring Rifftrax for awhile now it seems. When I first found it, it seemed so awesome, yet after watching several of them it seems like the jokes all run together... it's hard for me to describe, but it also seems like the style of jokes is the same for all the movies I've seen. They're mostly just the standard "comment on something in the movie"... there doesn't seem to be any of the actor-resemblance jokes, bombast jokes, character impersonation jokes (though to be fair a lot of those went out the window in MST with Trace's departure), references to other works the actors have been in, etc. It's hard for me to describe, but it just seems like a lot of what made MST fun is sorely lacking in most of the Rifftrax. There's only a few Rifftrax I would watch a second time

    Superbowl XLII

    Five paragraphs of pure undecipherable excitement

    So, are the 1972 Miami Dolphins really the greatest team ever?

    1989 49ers would come pretty close with total of 126-26, probably the best offensive unit ever to win, which is amazing considering how many bigtime offensive units have failed to win (this year's Pats, '98 Vikings, '83 Redskins, '84 Dolphins, '01 Rams, '90 Bills...)

    WTF happened there

    Superbowl XLII

    Yes. That's really all the reason we need. The big problem as far as I see vis-a-vis the fans issue is that prior to this decade Boston fans were seen (at least, outside of NY) as somewhat sympathetic due to the Sox constantly coming up short, as well as the Pats own woes and even the mighty Celtics falling off after their last title (most notably the Bias and Lewis incidents), but apparently a good portion of fans are still trying to carry the sympathetic air ("no respect") even after five championships this decade and that's rubbing a large number of people the wrong way

    Superbowl XLII

    In "How Media Saturation Negatively Affects Opinion" Pt XLXIV... aside from liking the Pats (especially being led by then-unheralded Michigan man Brady), I was tired of the media's constant "Warner Warner Warner" barrage, combined with the Frequent Family Shots of scary Mrs Warner in the stands, and that was good enough reason for me to root for NE in that SB
  15. In some exceptional cases people might jump right from the second to the fourth. I know I was saying that even before the Aikman Cowboys' 3rd Super Bowl appearance, and it seemed like quite a few people were saying it after the Pats beat the Eagles.
  16. For quite a few neutral fans, especially in this media saturated day and age, I think the perception of a dynasty tends to evolve like so 1st championship - "Well that's nice. Good for them!" 2nd championship - "Well... I guess that's allright" 3rd championship - "Okay, that's enough of that..." Beyond that - "JUST FUCKING GO AWAY ALREADY"

    How much are you getting back in taxes this year

    But they can turn around later and say "No, you couldn't deduct that. What the hell were you thinking?" even if you think you're properly following the rules in the book This caused me to have to send back some money from a refund a couple years ago

    Random quote I found on another board
  19. In the wake of most people outside of New England rooting for the Giants yesterday, in combination with the similarity of people rooting for the Pats against the Rams years ago and in general people's tendency to root for the underdog/against the dominant team, has there been a "lovable juggernaut" who powered their way through a season and got a significant number of people outside their fanbase (excluding rival fans) to root for them?

    Indeed... is Manning-mania any more preferable to the New England love? I expect ads in the future depicting the Manning bros holding up their rings out like they're summoning Captain Planet
