What's your fucking hang up on this stupid show? You seem greatly annoyed that someone ripped a gag game that those guys ripped off. It's a fucking great show, and their entire discussion about fighting 9 year olds was more amusing than likely anything we could come up with in this thread. Didn't know you were a fan, Marvin, you got XM? I've Had XM for 2 years almost, I have a Roady XT.

My Giant 2!

Start talking like Ned Flanders.

What's your fucking hang up on this stupid show? You seem greatly annoyed that someone ripped a gag game that those guys ripped off. Im over the whole "this is a rip off of Ron and Fez" thing but I think that 9 year olds are a bigger challenge than 5 year olds and thus the Ron and Fez version of this is better, especially if you make them retarded 9 year olds.

I thought that site was long gone. And doesn't Slayer own it? MrRant owns Rantsylvania.com cue the irony.. It doesnt work though. Oh it was Rant. Then how did you know the exact date? I have a good memory. June 31, 2001 old board..January 31,2002 new board

Hey, I heard that show. Didn't they have a side argument about whether the kids would be retarded or not? Because if you're dealing with retards, you have to revise your numbers, on account of their freakishly superhuman retard strength. Yeah. The retards thing goes to a bit they run occasionally - "When Retards Rule the World". I didnt hear it the first time, but it aired recently on one of the Best of Ron and Fez days and it was hillarious. They also had a really great interview with Bob Zmuda last week..and he was telling all these great stories about Andy Kaufman..its nice to know he fucked about 80% of the women he wrestled with after the shows and his unique wrestling gear was a result of having to tape down his dick and wear 5 layers of clothing to prevent his erection from showing live on SNL. Ron and Fez are pretty awesome lately, I cant really stand O&A anymore.

This is why its 9 year olds in a wrestling ring. 9 year olds can kick your ass.

just cuss and put your money in the fucking jar like a man.

I stink at picking games..but I feel especially lucky (or maybe just boredom) this week for some reason so.. Cleveland @ Pittsburgh - I Dont want to see either team win, so I say 17-17 TIE! Indianapolis @ Jacksonville - Jacksonville is no Tennessee even though they're still in the playoff chase and Tennessee isn't. The Jaguars will be joining them after the game.. Indy 34 Jacksonville 13 Tennessee @ Houston - Battle for 3rd place in the AFC South! Vince Young > Mario Williams but Houston > Nashville so..Houston 21 Tennessee 17 Baltimore @ Kansas City - Baltimore 23 KC 14 Oakland @ Cincinnati - The Bengals march towards a wild card continues with this game. Oakland is playing for the #1 draft pick since they are the only team in the NFL eliminated from the playoffs. The math is easy, unfortunately..Cincy 31 Oakland 10 Philadelphia @ Washington - The only thing the Redskins have going for them here is that Jeff Garcia is bound to turn into Jeff Garcia sooner than later, but it wont happen in Washington. Philly 20 Washington 7 Minnesota @ Detroit - Detroit is actually favored to win the game so you should pick them..to lose! Youd think the people in Vegas would know better than to pick Detroit..Minnesota 27 Detroit 10 NYG @ Carolina - The Carolina Panthers will be the ones blowing this game late, but the Giants wont be any happier about it even with the win. NYG 24 Carolina 23 Atlanta @ Tampa - I Dont see why Tampa cant pull an upset..Tampa's been respectable at home. Atlanta only ended a 4 game losing streak by beating up on a hapless Redskins team. Everyone will be in shock again..Tampa Bay 23 Atlanta 14 New England @ Miami - Had the Dolphins won last week..Id be going on about how they wanted to keep their playoff hopes alive and all, but now that we're past that, Harrington will get hit back into Detroit and probably wishing he was there..New England 24 Miami 6 Green Bay @ San Francisco -I'll go ahead and say Favre gets 4 TDs this week but some4INTShow GB loses anyway...San Francisco 34 GB 31 OT Seattle @ Arizona - Seattle's coasting right into the playoffs despite being hit with injuries to everyone on the team it seems, and they'll keep it going. Seattle 27 Arizona 14 Buffalo @ NYJ - the Jets go in as one of 5 7-5 teams looking for a Wild Card spot and they'll leave as one of 2 8-5 teams, but it wont be as easy as you think. NYJ 21 Buffalo 17 Denver @ San Diego - Jay Cutler will probably be wishing he'd never been drafted after this game. Denver's QB move will cost them a playoff spot but thats ok..cause they still have John Elway to reminisce about! SD 31 Denver 16 New Orleans @ Dallas - Dallas is the new team in the NFC hyped up and ready to roll into the Super Bowl, but theres a speedbump coming in NO and Mr. Romo is going to be feeling it the most. New Orleans 27 Dallas 21 in your game of the Week Chicago @ St. Louis - St. Louis still has a shot at the Wild Card despite needing an awful lot of help. Chicago is one more bad game away from "WE WANT KYLE ORTON!" I dont know what the hell happened to Grossman other than he finally realized he sucks, but I figure for it to continue for another week. St. Louis 19 Chicago 12

Good to know Ravens are in HD! YAY! I was worried that CBS would go with the Colts game in HD..paired with Denver and NE.. The Chiefs/Browns game is on NFL Replay but I missed everything up to the OT.

The margarine we use at work in a hospital has 3.5 grams per serving..lol we're killing teh patientz! uh-oz..

June 31, 2001! I was doing a search for Iron Chef Reviews and Rantsylvania popped up and I found the forum. Then it changed over to "The Smarks"..then the yellow board..then "The Smart Marks" when I registered a bit early Jan 31 2002 (I kick myself for not going ahead and registering earlier for a lower Member #..but 47 is pretty low now. I actually went away for 3 months from Feb to May of 2002 because of being in Annapolis without internet except at random intervals, but other than that I've been fulltime minus the 2 week hiatus I was just on. oh..and.. I miss teh Shockmaster. Thats sort of a requirement for one of these threads.

True. I mean, they are the O's. Still, I can't wrap my head around going to a game just to do what you can do at home, without paying for public transit/parking, tickets, concessions, and souvenirs. I can see where it helps for replays and things like that, but when it gets to the point where you're just watching a screen the whole time, you might as well create the ballpark ambiance in your home: put some freshly mown grass clippings near your nose, spill cheap beer on your pants, and make some hot dogs. Save yourself the trip. Scorecard? Something like: That screen in the Rogers Centre. and yeah, I wish I had more to talk abou than screens..but the Os already made all their big off season moves. THE O'S BULLPEN IS GONNA BE AWESOME!

Sub-.500 high-cost-per-win baseball...IN HIGH DEFINITION! Come to the park to watch TV! They really do need a new one though, the current one is terrible. Somehow I think a TV is the least of the Baltimore Orioles' concerns, even though clearly it's #1 on your list. Why do you need an HDTV at a ballpark? What's more high-definition than real life? If you go to a ballgame, that's your chance to observe a game WITHOUT staring at a screen. Stupid. Watch the game. You know, with the people, standing on grass and dirt. I'll never get this approach to going to games. The video board is rediculously small. See below: From the Baltimore Sun: "The $2.6 million video screen was cutting-edge when it was installed for the opening of Oriole Park in 1992. But the 23-by-31-foot board is considered out of date compared with the SmartVision screen at M&T Bank Stadium and other larger, sharper screens that have gone into ballparks around the country in recent years... The old screen uses traditional television technology. Most newer boards use light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, similar to the ones that light up alarm clocks and wristwatches. Boards based on LED technology are cheaper, larger and offer superior picture quality. The University of Texas, for example, recently debuted a 7,370-square-foot Daktronics screen dubbed "Godzillatron." That's 10 times the size of the JumboTron at Camden Yards, with much higher resolution to boot." The video board is in the yellow circle. The team and the Maryland Stadium Authority cant agree on what they'll be replacing it with it so it might not happen this year.. They are also going to be putting in fake brick padding down the foul lines to go with the real brick behind homeplate..which will look stupid..

ECW on Saturday night... It'll almost be like the old days..cept its on about 7 hours early.

Tazz standing up for Kelly^2..hmm he could have hopped in there a little bit sooner..

Does anyone on here actually have a PS3?

Ron and Fez are on High..er The Virus XM 202 after O&A. Great show, they are both huge wrestling fans. They had Paul Heyman on a while back talking about the old ECW, which was when he said he bought lunch for Katie Couric. I guess I should note that the perameters for R&F's battle vs 9 year olds was that it was in a ring..

Way to rip off Ron and Fez. Actually they did "How many 9 year olds.." so..uh.. 9 year olds > 5 year olds September 19, 2005 - Ron, Fez, Master Po and Steve C speculate as to how many 9 year old boys they could beat up in a ring: Caller: "How are you supposed to fight the nine nine year old when you have such a huge boner?"

Yeah, Jimmy James is the real DB Cooper, not Charles Westmoreland. Well..duh..I was thinking about the amount of money and the fact that it didnt make it to Utah (as far as I could tell).

Personally Im an OAR person, but it doesn't really bother me either way. I wont stretch SD programming at 4:3 to fit a widescreen just like I wouldn't want a widescreen movie cut down to fullscreen. And just try and watch Ben Hur (2.76:1) in OAR on a regular tv..lol..its not that much better on a widescreen though. FYI..most commercials now are shot in 1.56:1 (14:9) so they can be aired for both widescreen tvs and regular tvs without much noticable letterboxing.

Do we all realize next week is the end?

Os News! - Angelos turned down Brian Roberts/Hayden Penn for Marcus Giles/Adam Laroche because he likes Brian Roberts and Roberts is a fan favorite. - OPACY is supposedly getting an HD videoboard to replace the old one. YAY!
