    If they don't play Ike, they will be the losers of the trade. I get the feeling though that Obrien will be the first coach not to suffer from the retardation that strikes others coaches when it comes to him though.
  2. I watched and realized how horrible the commentary is. Watch as they blame the offensive line and the recivers for Joey Harrington playing like shit. "Thats 6 drops!!" No. There were two drops in the game. The others were horrible passes. The crowd was chanting for Chris Redman. But according to the commentary it was everyones fault except Joey Harrington.

    Hey Corey, why doesn't Resident Evil....okay, the first one, not fall under the Pure zombie movie umbrella. The only difference I can see is that they gave a explaination for the dead rising, while in other Zombie movies we have no idea why the heck its happening. You disqualified it because of the Licker, huh?

    American Gangster

    You know, I hated fresh prince of bel-air at first because it was so goddamn insulting. Because, see, will was from the ghetto, therefore he didn't know how to properly put on a suit or that playing music on glasses at the dinner table wasn't okay. A person tries to shake your hand? Nigga, we don't know nothing about that hand shakin shit in the ghetto. We slap yo hand! Luckily they got away from that crap after a few eps into season one.

    Total Non-Stop Action

    One day, I am going to hack my way into some wrestling game to steal their textures and remake No Mercy since every single developer seems to just not believe that a good 90% of the wrestling game playing audience telling them they want the No Mercy engine/gameplay is what is wanted. Take No mercy, speed it up a bit (But not to Def Jam Vendetta speeds) and some better animations and you would have the highest rated Wrestling game this side of Fire Pro. Its been almost 10 years and no one has done it YET (although DOR came close)

    Yes, but Grier was perfect in that move. "Petey, you can't whoop the Sarge!" And Adolph Caesar's "Moonshine, King of the Monkeys" story and the "day of the geechie is gone" speeches made this movie incredible. And why have I never heard of that movie?

    Let's Start Talking Worst Album of 2007

    Clipse haven't released anything new since last November. Hell Hath No Fury is, however, leaps and bounds better than any album I've heard this year. Okay, you know, I tried. I really did. But that album fucking sucks. I kept it in my car thinking maybe one day I would get what everyone else was hearing but that album really REALLY fucking sucks. There. I said it.

    Oh, sorry. Guess I could've said the movie. I meant A Soldiers Story.

    I honestly don't think there is a denzel movie you can call bad. Some aren't as good as others of course, but bad? eh. Not since he became a really good actor. Fallen was not cool. Ricochet featured him catching the clap from a prostitute as part of the revenge. That was awesome. I liked that movie, I can understand why some don't like it, bit it was still wasn't BAD. Bone Collector was kinda on the low end, but still...I wouldn't call it horrible. I wasnt a fan of Carbon Copy, but still. Not BAD...just not my cup of tea. Plus, Denzel was in one of the greatest movies of all time so he gets a pass on anything that you might not have liked.

    Box Office Report 10/12-10/14

    Tyler Perrys movies, I think would fall under the Family/Drama catagory. All of the bad people are over the top bad, all of the good people are over the top good. Then Madea is the comedy relief. She hasn't been in the last couple of movies, so its was just replaced by your regular comedy relief character in the movie. Case in point, his last movie, daddys little girls, the dad was over the top good, hard working guy, his ex was over the top all about money bad mother and the kids were the comedy relief. In the family movie genre, they are really good movies. If you want to compare it to other genres, it won't hold up at all because the characters are so shallow.

    The only problem with Jarvis is that he WILL get hurt. I used to love watching that jumper when he played for Georgia though.

    It's black people. Black people love whatever piece of shit Tyler Perry puts out. It's like Adam Sandler and white people, I guess. Good for the Rock. It's made 60 million now, shouldn't that officially count as his first definitive big hit? I don't see any other family movies coming to knock it out of its niche until that awful Bee Movie is released. You know, the movies are actually good. For family stuff. But they are good movies. Unlike that horrible sitcom that no one watched.

    The REAL ID Act

    Seeing as Republicans have been carrying the hispanic vote for a while now, where are you getting that they would vote democrat? Do you think that Bush is not just saying "get rid of the immigrants NOW" just for the heck of it? He knows what the hispanic vote means to the party.

    Madden NFL 08

    I was ready to be amazed that anyone could get that far. because i have played every game of two seasons and I am at the second teir. And to me, this is the best madden in a while. It has its flaws, but it is still a damn good game. And the first season using my franchise, Vick had the yards but had 30 touchdowns and 21 INT's with a passing percentage of around 50 percent. This season I am up to around 70 percent passing with alot less INT's because I am learning the quirks of the game and when and where to go to certain plays. I haven't fumbled out side of a missed pitch since the first couple of days playing the game. RB people...cover the ball.

    NBA 2K8

    Yeah, one game for some reason I went back to my "roam with Josh Smith" thing I did in years before and Matt Barnes scored 48 points on me because he kept getting WIDE open 3's. I didn't call a timeout and his bars got red and blinking, but thanks to years before where I hated calling timeouts and probably never did, this year they made me pay for it. I won the game though because I went to a 2-3 zone to keep him from being so open.

    NBA 2K8

    I know people hate to hear it, but you guys just suck at the game right now. If you leave people open, they will hit shots. Simple as that. Years before you could roam on D and have one player try to disrupt stuff. Now, they will find the guy you left open and if he has any jumpshooting ability he is going to make you pay. Over and over and over again. I am playing a season on Hall of fame with the Hawks and I am 14-6. The 6 came when I was still learning the game. It might be annoying to some but you are going to have to play some ball to actually get wins. No more just running around and shooting. If you are missing all your shots, then maybe you are taking crappy shots. If you guy is cold, then call a timeout to get his confidence back up. And when the computer is making a run, you are going to HAVE to call a time out or they won't stop the run. If you let them get hot and never stop them, what do you think will happen. Another tip, those bars next to you aren't there for decoration. Shoot in your hot spots and close in on offensive players when they are near theirs. In the real NBA teams will always make a run. ALWAYS. You have to fight them off. If you don't, you lose. Simple as that.

    Exactly where he should be put. But 65 for 6 years...he is insane.

    5 years, 29 mill. That wouldn't be a horrible contract....except its Jerome James.

    plus Renaldo Balkman You know, I wrote 12 guys and couldn't think of the 12th so I edited to. But yeah. Theonly guy you can make an argument for not getting much PT would be Wilson Chandler maybe. All the rest of those guys really should recieved decent minutes (although it is obvious that they won't). Still, to my original point, Houston ain't making this team. And about Anderson, yes, he is the 6th man. He wants 65 million dollars to back up the front court. While people might look at Phoenix and say they gave Boris Diaw a 5 year 50 million dollar deal, they are and were fully aware that Marion, if not traded by now, would opt out after this year. Varajo offers you basically nothing offensively and about the same rebounding numbers big z and gooden give you. He is insane if he thinks anyone in the leage, even if they were under the cap, would pay him 10 million+ a year.

    MMA Comments that Don't Warrant a Thread

    I said with ACTUAL cardio and training. Not the "Wow, Bob Sapp didn't get fallout tired until 2 minutes into the match instead of 30 seconds into the match. IT MUST BE GOOD CARDIO!!" I mean lets be honest here, Shaq is very agile and conditioned to be 7'2" and 300+ lbs. Sapp and Silva A: Aren't close to his size(well Sapp isn't) and B: Have never been in close to the shape that Shaq is in and C: Are roughly 1,00,000 times less mobile and agile than Shaq. So I don't just mean that size. I mean someone with the freak of nature athletisim that he had/has at that size. I often think about some athletes and wonder how good would they have been if they played another sport.

    Madden NFL 08

    Jesus dude, have you? I am on like the second teir or whatever. How much do you have to play to get all the way to the top? And do you get more points if you play at a higher level? Like if I turn it down to pro and run up the score on a shitty computer opponent, will I get points quicker?

    Nichols is 14 years younger and could be every bit the shooter that Houston is. Allan isn't making this team. The Knicks have legitimately 11 guys that should be in the rotation already. Thats not counting Jones. Marbury Robinson(although i am not opposed to benching him, his energy brought them back in alot of games last year) Collins Crawford Lee Morris Chandler Curry Randolph Richardson Jeffries Its a great story though. And Anderson Varajo(sp) is still holding out in Cleveland for a 6 year 65 million dollar contract. Thus...he wants Steve Nash's contract. ... Alrighty. Sasha Pavolvic(sp) is also holding out. He was offered a 3 year, 9 million dollar contract but said no. ... Alrighty.

    After reading about Shaqs MMA training to get in shape this offseason (and it appears to have really worked) I was wondering. Would a guy that size with actual cardio and trainig be undefeatable? I am inclined to think either he would be unstoppable or he would have really shit knees.

    Remember when they did the new scared straight on MTV uncensored. I understand that the kids in the room were frightend or whatever, but honestly, just hearing a guy say "We would bend your mutha fuckin ass over and fuck theshit out of you!" on TV would induce laughter and anything but scared straightness.
