The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
LaParkaMarka replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
You guys didn't like that ep?!?! Bah. It was golden, I tell you. The commercial at the beginning, the dog constantly growling at Harm, the parting jabs Spike had for Angel, Harmony constantly insulting Fred while they were bonding, Harmony throwing everyone in the closet, "Or it was a gay vampire!", Harm flipping out on Dan the Man, how the demons constantly called Angel a man-whore, and of course the CHOPSTICK FIGHT OF DEATH. Plus Harmony is very hothot. The weakest thing about the ep was the lame reason for Spike staying in LA. But I can forgive that. Harmony + Xander + Giles + Andrew + sitcom. It would work, people. -
Does everyone else play a complete NFL season?
LaParkaMarka replied to Betty Houle's topic in Video Games
God, Clinton Portis is a fumbling machine on ESPN. Tiki must be insane if Portis fumbles every other game. Still, I love my franchise team. Used the fantasy draft, so I have Brian Urlacher/Chris Mcallister anchoring a pretty good D, and Bulger/Blake, Portis/Onterrio Smith, and Burress/Chad Johnson/Santana Moss for my O. I think I have Anquan Boldin too, but he's terrible in this game. I made sure that my core group was nice and young, so my team should be able to win this year as well as down the road. Some of the other teams drafted really weird. The Jets have Ricky Williams, Edgerrin James, and Fred Taylor. And pretty much nothing else. When my team played the Jets in the first game of the year, I injured Edge. -

Make sure not to trade Charlie Rogers. He should get a good stat increase for next season, and can be used as a number one or two receiver. I'd try and trade for picks, since it's tough to get good people on D...guys like Brian Urlacher don't come cheap. -
Doesn't hurt to try it. If that doesn't work, you might even want to think about putting your save files on disk and formatting your HD. You might also want to try asking in the computer board here.

HOw far could Green have thrown it, anyways? Plus the Chiefs don't exactly have Randy Moss back there to pull a circus catch off. Might as well try something different.

Just picked up Eternal Darkness...

ED is RE with a better story, better controls, and better gameplay. I played RE 0 after finishing ED, and RE was just so played out and boring. Then again, now I might have built up ED a bit too much. *shrugs* -
Download and run Ad-Aware to get rid of any spyware that might be using up resources. Scan you system for viruses (just in case). If you don't feel like buying one, use the free online one (google search "online virus scan"). Defragment your hard drive. Doubt this is a problem, but it doesn't hurt to update any drivers etc you have.

HOLY SHIT INT

What a terrible looking TD. Ah well, whatever.

Ashe isn't bad at all. From that pic, she looks much cuter than any of the X2 girls. Which is never a bad thing. -
Lovie Smith or Romeo Crennel would have been far better choices. Hell, Jim Fassel or Dave McGinnis would have been far better choices. Besides, I thought Lovie and the new Atlanta GM were buddy buddy...

UTSU, I hope you didn't choose the Red symbol in the first level. That kinda notches up the difficulty and could make it not fun. Though it seems you have problems with the story and "dark" aspect of it. It ain't gonna get any lighter, so you might as well sell it to someone who will appreciate it. That being said, ED was all kinds of awesome. Great controls, fun gameplay, wicked story, and the funnest insanity effects around. -
Yeah, Rich Pilon was a pretty bad d-man.

Under the "Stats" section of her page, it lists her "special skills". One of them is that she can drive a stick shift. No wonder Vince hired her.

The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
LaParkaMarka replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
I dunno if this reply is really a spoiler, but... Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Yeah, I reacted the *exact* same way fazzle. Joss can really mess around with the openings now to build up tension. If you haven't seen Firefly, watch the pilot episode. You'll see what I mean. -
Three guys on IR. This blows. Hurry up and come back, Paul Kariya/Dom Hasek/Pavol Demitra!

The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
LaParkaMarka replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
I know this is supposed to be the Angel thread, but what the heck. Just got Buffy season 4, I haven't seen a lot of the eps, especially the beginning stuff. So I saw "The Freshman" for the first time. I can't believe how emotionally involved I get with this show. I really wanted to kill that evil 80's vamp after she snapped Buffy's little prom umbrella thingee. Must say, I also enjoyed Living Conditions quite a bit. Making this post vaguely Angel related, I also saw "City Of" for the first time. That was pretty weak. Doyle is cool, and the ep has a decent story, but I just wasn't feelin it. Nice little intro to Wolfram and Hart though. And Cordelia was insanely fuckalicious. -
I don't see anyone in their right mind giving up Ahman Green for a Minnesota or Philly RB. The guy was a fantasy monster this year.
-
The Rams would get their asses kicked by any of the four AFC teams. Sadly, they're in the NFC and have a pretty decent shot at getting to the Superbowl. I'm still annoyed the Vikes lost to the damn Cardinals. The Cards~! Argh.
-
Congrats to the Ephedras. I'm pretty annoyed at the semifinal loss though...I can't believe Trent Green put up negative points and DJ put up none at all. Bah. Oh well. The Ephedras deserve it if only for the marvelous move of picking up Lee Suggs. I thought the online draft was a blast. We just need to make sure to get people who will bother to show up, so we won't have the Tampa defense getting picked up before Ahman Green. I thought the 20 team league was great. Every team had a chance to win even with the depleted rosters, and it was fun trying to find those "diamond in the rough" kinda players. A reverse order draft is fine, but how many people are actually sticking around for next year? If bravesfan decides he's not in, some other person gets the coveted number 1 spot? Might as well make it random again. Besides, picking high wasn't that much of an advantage...I did well and I picked last. Whalers picked pretty late too. Go us. I'd love a Keeper league, but as Marvin said, doesn't seem like Yahoo offers one. Bah. Anyways, it was a blast this year. HHH will be back next year. I shall endeavor to hold everyone down.
-
Bah, come on Bengals. No one wants to see the evil Rams win. Intercept a bunch of a passes and help out my fantasy team! Also, Buffalo sucks. What's going on there? How is Miami up at Buffalo? Boo.
-
Trent Green is killing me here. Throw a few TDs you worthless bastard!

Trash him for his political views if you want. I disagree with a lot of what he says re: the politics. But you can easily call him great for his contributions to linguistics alone, as well as to other fields. And I can admire the guy for what he's done in linguistics. Maybe not admire him as a politician, or even as a person. But admire him as a linguist? Definately.

The CHiefs have a good enough offense to come back from 21 points down. They aren't exactly Carolina here. Plus, as weird as it sounds, the Vikes offense is almost unstoppable when it's clicking (kinda like the Chiefs). KC isn't a bad team because Moss hauled in some jump-balls.
-
I love those Moss jump-balls. It's just hilarious to see Minnesota continually do that. Defenses know it's going to happen, but it still works. Beautiful.
