Thanks guys, I will work on an updated post at lunch.

This stuff drives me crazy, anyone see that woman on the TV claiming that she has been raped? What? First of all she is pretty, so right there its kind of her fault. Second, if she didnt want to have sex why would she have played along and invited him inside for coffee? Surely she has seen Seinfeld and knows what coffee means! I bet she was wearing a short dress or something too. This is all a sham! I bet her and her parents concocted this story so she could get a big payday because shes getting older and wont be able to play the field like she used to.

The first half was just stupid. Did that camp look safe at all? Good location at all? I know he had hub caps 10 feet away to give them a 3 second heads up before being attacked but still. Then they move onto the golf club house where they go in, go downstairs then go back upstairs of course setting off a clock to make noise. Then move onto the cabin for moonshine and some silly drinking game. I really did expect one of her confessions to be shes never been with a man before leading to some creepy sex. (Eww Darrell doesnt was his hands after taking a leak!) Then they head outside for some really bad melodramatic over acting. Then finally a good scene on the porch. Out of all we saw that's all it really needed. When she told him he will miss her when shes gone that would have been the perfect time for her to break into a slowed down southern version of that Anna Kendrick "cups - miss me when I am gone song". I really should switch the order I watch this and True Detective but with TD having no ads its easier to watch that first.

Thats the only good part IMO too. The porch scene was the only decent part.

Other than shutting up about it and/or never being bothered by it in the first place, I am not sure there is any way Martin could win with most people.

Wow, I hated last nights episode.

The National Guard is dropping supplies here in White Marsh. The people are angry because its Scotties single ply. This might get ugly.

Its snowing men! Hallelujah!

So many great things he was involved in. Groundhog Day Ghostbusters Stripes Caddyshack Back To School Animal House Meatballs

Yeah maybe. I am sure no slots hurt the MD tracks to some degree. I still think it was dying. Not that I know the most people but I am in my mid 40s (sigh) and I have worked numerous jobs with lots people over the years. I know or have known fans of sports both mainstream and niche and yet I havent heard anyone in the past 25 years mention any interest in MD horse racing with the exception of going to the Preakness infield. No one. I think it would have faded away no matter what. Even the slots thing, I know slots would affect the purses which theoretically would get more people in the stands, tracks getting slots were using something other than horse racing as a draw to get people to come.

so what do you think about our acquisitions?
Spen replied to cravnravn's topic in Baltimore Orioles / MLB
I think they did a decent job. Not great, not awful. I want them to make a serious attempt to sign Davis long term. -
I am convinced that racing was dying and would have died no matter what they did to try to save it. In all my life I have known one member of my friends or family that has gone to a track to watch or gamble on the races. I have known plenty of people who wanted to go to the Preakness but that was just for the party. Actual interest in horse racing or gambling, no one I have ever known except for my brother who briefly thought he could beat the system when he was in his early 20s. That lasted a month or so. As for me, I dont like it. Seeing one awful injury and subsequent euthanasia was enough for me.

Will do. Since I liked the older ones I hope I will like this. I will also wait a bit before I play to see if they patch it to fix some of the AI issues.
-
yeah not excited about the reviews. i preordered it though so i just got it
-
Cool! I was hoping that you could get it to work. I thought it was fun, and a good story. The in between season 1 and 2 game 400 Days is decent too. All new characters that may show up later. Season 2 goes back to characters from the first game.
-
Or Deonte brought friends. My opinion is that pot should be legal but that doesn't matter right now because it's not. Deonte messed up, it's his fault, not the laws fault.
-
There might be, but it's never going to turn into a good story. It's a pretty damning video. Even if it never amounts to nothing that's what a lot of people will think of when they think of him and it makes the team look bad. Again.
-
If they cut him for this, and I am not necessarily against it, they should cut the next player that does something similar even if he is coming off a career year.

An eye for an eye.

Really, when you drag someone you drag them face up. Thats just common courtesy.

It will be interesting to see how coming out affects Ellen Page's draft status.
-
Have you played episode 1 of season 2 yet? Rough one! Dee, I think you will like it.

I'm not sure I agree with teams not caring. Sure they want to avoid the circus that will follow this player for a while but I also think there is still a predominant thought that gays don't being in sports. Also, I think Tebow's talent is the main factor. There are plenty of vocal religious players in the league and have been for a long time. Reggie White, Jim Harbaugh, Kurt Warner etc. I'm sure someone that paid attention to those things could name more. If Tebow was open to playing a different position I think someone would pick him up. He says he doesn't want to. Maybe he says that so when he doesn't play he can blame it on an antichristian bias. j/k ......mostly

That's it. Its not a first person game. You can see your character. I would not call it a shooter. If you give it a try I would start with season one. The story builds from there. Another neat thing is when you make a big decision, after the chapter it will tell you what % of players made the same choice. Some are simple choices - ie do you give water to a injured person. Some are really hard - two decent people are being attacked, who do you help. And you have about 10 seconds to decide.

I guess thats one way of looking at it. It seemed to me he came out before the draft so the drafting team would not be surprised and unknowingly drawn into a contoversy. I dont know him, but he seems like a decent guy in interviews so I dont know whether I think this was a ploy to get drafted whereas he might not before. I still think it will hurt his stock more. As I dont watch college football I have no knowledge of his talent level, so I cannot comment on where I think he would or should be drafted. I will say I pretty much could care less about anyone's sexual preference.
