    How's Ray?

    On the radio I heard it was just a stinger, so it probably hurt bad but isn't serious.
  2. If the TV is within the last few years it might be digital already. If so you might be surprised what you can pull in with a pair of rabbit ears.
  3. Thats exactly how I feel. I love Letterman but can understand why others dont. I am happy with 4 of the 5 late night hosts right now. I like Letterman, Conan, Craig, and Kimmel. Fallon is harmless but I am not sure I like him or if he does a good job. The only one I watch frequently is Letterman, but whenever I catch any of the others I enjoy them. I love Craig's crocodile. Craig is really really strange and odd. And I mean that in a very good way. I want to read his book.
  4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUBQk_pn_js Not really, but it makes me laugh.
  5. Wow, I dont mind people taking shots at Baltimore but that was an awful job. It wasn't original, it wasn't clever, and it wasn't funny. How this guy has a job in the media amazes me. I'd like to think an average person off the street could do a better job.
  6. Today was troubling and frustrating at times defensively. Last week, I thought the defense played well - not perfect but very good. The Chargers are a good team offensively and the Ravens won so I'll be happy enough for now. Hopefully it was just a bad week for the pass defense.
  7. I'll check it out. I often like Levinson (but boy is he hit or miss since Bugsy). I will also say I worked at a photo lab that the Colts marching band used and the leader of the band often came in. He was crazy. Nice, but crazy.
  8. Its very encouraging to see his play at this point. Even with the rookie learning curve his battign is not bad, hopefully it will only improve next year.
  9. Wow, time flies. When I saw the title in my head I guessed 3 year.

    PS3?

    Both are good systems but I never had any XBox so I got (given actually) a PS3 since that is what I was used to. I enjoy it. Since the majority of games are on both systems I am not sure if it would be worth it to me to buy the other just for the exclusives but I'll give my opinion on the ones I played. Heavenly Sword - one of the earlier PS3 titles, one I bought a few months ago for $7.99. I really liked it. Its really short though. Infamous - I like it so far but I have played for 30 minutes tops Little Big Planet - the amount of creativity is amazing, yet I get bored of this after a few minutes. Most people love it. Metal Gear 4 - loved it, same formula as the other ones but prettier and bigger MLB08, 09 - love them. The career mode is fantastic Ratchet and Clank- Tools of Destruction. I like all Ratchet games, this one was very fun Resistance Fall of Man, and Resistance 2 - both good 1st person shooters, I like the 2nd one a lot better...online multiplayer is great Uncharted: Drakes Fortune - loved it, cannot wait for the 2nd Im looking forward to Heavy Rain, God Of War 3, and Agent among others.
  14. LOL, its fun to try to figure out how they do it. They can be pretty talented people. In some ways I'd like to believe more than I do.
  15. Mediums, fortune tellers, and parlor psychics are all using various methods to fool people that have been around for a hundred and fifty years (or more). If you are really interested in how I recommend reading up on Houdini, he made it his mission for a while to debunk famous psychics of his day and told how many did their tricks. Thats why he was killed!* Penn And Teller also did a story on psychics this season on Bullshit, the ones they told about had gathered loose information about the customers and would also pause mid sentence leaving a silence the customer would often fill. After their fortunes were told the people would be impressed by how much the psychic told them, even though on the tape it showed they gave the psychic most of the information themselves. Usually they were harmless but one of them did tell a woman her daughter, who had a incurable disease (lupus maybe?) would get better, that really pissed P&T off. I dont know how the media psychics work, but I am sure its some variation of the other methods. Oddly enough (or stupidly) overall I dont discount the possibility of psychics, yet every time I see or hear of one I think scam artist. (same with UFOs, I dont think they are impossible, but if you tell me you saw one I'd think you saw something else and were mistaken (or crazy)) *actual conspiracy theory held by some, but not really me
  16. People complaining about the Ravens being pass happy after one game are being silly. What was one of the Chiefs biggest weaknesses yesterday? A weak secondary. What to do teams do? Target their opponents weaknesses. I guess I could understand the criticism if the game plan didnt work but it worked very well. People just complain to complain. I, for one, am happy it appears that unlike other years it appears that the Ravens can have a varied offensive attack.

    Dear Crav

    Well you certainly cannot call it your cursed word, a game tied with 4 minutes to go certainly isn't that.
  18. For the most part I happy with the performance of the Ravens yesterday, especially being the first game of the season. I think the running backs played great, the receivers were very good, and I was surprised to see Heap play as well as he did. I thought Flacco looked good. Sure, he had the INT and some other bad throws but when you throw as much as he did there are bound to be some bad throws. Special teams were a problem, and I suspect I will worry every time Hauschka tries for a FG the next few weeks, but I will give him some time. Carr didn't dazzle me but I didn't see anything from him that bothered me either. The defense gave up a few big plays, but I thought they were very good. The majority of the points given up were because of the INT and punt block. All in all I am very pleased. If the score would have ended the same but not been as close in the 4th I would be thrilled, but even so its game one. Sure they will have to play better in some areas against better teams, but I think they will.

    Dear Crav

    Cool, we could have provided alibis for each other.

    Dear Crav

    At one point in the 3rd yesterday I was thinking of making a road trip to PA with a bunch of angry fans with torches and pitchforks in an attempt to end the curse once and for all.
  21. attitude and lack of effort. He is really bringing the team down.
  22. Cera has apparently agreed to be in the movie.
  23. Maybe not. I'd settle for some consistency and not falling completely apart after the all star break.
