    So, do you think there will be a Second American Revolution?

    Right that was my thought... I voted yes, but not from a "Fuck Ya! "murica" stand point but more from a concerned one. As years pass by the more convinced I am that eventually the mudslinging going on between the two sides of the coin will spill over into violence. Not sure if it'll be in a...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    The game is very largely social. The challenges don't really become vital until the final four or five. The voting dynamic is much different in BB. Winning a challenge in that game gives someone the power to choose who votes go to, and it's only two people (or three for last season). A...

    Most definitely, Saban is the last guy I'd use as a source as to what his final decision is. You know Texas is going to... well throw $Texas at him, but if he declines it won't be true until someone other than Saban says it.

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I honestly think Monica has a shot... She's a challenge beast, and legitimately won them. She has staid true to her alliance, and could point to the fact that even though they were dicks she stuck to her word. Her weakness is not making any moves but then she could say she let Tyson get his...

    That would be a complete conflict of interest and should not be allowed... I have a hard time swallowing the idea of ESPN owning all these networks for various conferences and schools to be honest...

    As a Tennessee fan, all I have to say is careful what you wish for. I totally get watching a coach just not "get it" at games and want to pull your hair out and strangle the man. However, things could get much worse. Not saying it is not possible, especially when you consider the person, but...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    This has been my mantra for weeks, and it really has gotten terrible since RAF went live. I've been trying to level a guy up this last month and it has been painful. It just goes to show how horridly Blizzard designed these areas. I can't imagine doing this crap while it was current... some...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Yeah they actually are wanting to avoid Ties at all costs, so they make it ultimately bad for the voters instead of the targets in hopes that they get together and agree on who to vote out.

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Hayden deserves it after that tribal. However, numbers do not lie... sorta. If Laura wins out it'll set up nicely for a final three for them, and honestly Tina and Katie ganging up is like two midgets trying to wrestle down Andre the Giant. Katie has been completely worthless and a non...

    Why did Rift fail?

    To me the things that need to really die in the MMOG plane are Talent Trees, Hard Coded Factions, and ability bloat and reading this it seems Rift really failed at not only copying them, but making them worse...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Hmm I wouldn't have as much of a problem with the endurance comps that favor women if they'd also do more strength challenges... But they only seem to have one of those only once in a great while

    Person of Interest

    Ya I'm still chewing on this. it was perfect, and so unlike broadcast TV to do that, and the impact is/will be huge. However, Root and Shaw will never replace the character lost... so they better get cracking if they want to bring in a replacement eventually.

    Revolution: season 2

    This season is an improvement just on the fact that they have hugely toned down the whole Miles vs an army with a knife and he wins crap. Not a huge fan of the grimdark stuff personally, and I'm afraid the key death from last week's episode is going to end up being reversed in one way or the...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    But it's not a real blindside since all they did was half vote out Aras to friggin' redemption island. And that last RI challenge was an absolute sham, it was obvious John was screwed before the gun even went off. This season would be much better if they didn't have that part of the game anymore.

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Wow talk about blurring memories... I didn't think that full screen UI came out until end of Kunark/ beginning of Velious. I remember playing in that god awful partial screen UI with the bright white that took up two thirds of the screen that blinded you.

    Most screwed up thing your parent/bro/sis/gf/bf has told you?

    Yeah, good Lord my heart breaks for some of you people. I can't say I feel for you, because frankly this is a guy whose parents were together my entire life, and their marriage ended when my dad died. No hidden secrets or anything like that, so that would be a slap in the face of the adversity...

    I am trying to figure out how the hell this happened. Oregon vs Stanford is one of those games I had marked from the beginning of the year, and I have to stay up late on a work night to watch it. I hate Thursday night football on both levels...

    They realized that and now put the fate of the NC in the hands of 12 completely unbiased individuals who will pick who goes for the bacon... It makes complete sense!

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I 100% agree... I completely see the point of adding an hour of daylight to the evening at the cost of an hour in the morning to save energy... so lets keep it that way. When I first moved to Tennessee from Indiana (who didn't observe DST at the time I moved), that was the first thing I...

    Daylight Savings Time... Look this is purely from my biological makeup and not political. I understand the pros and cons from both sides but here is mine. I have one of the hardest biological clocks known to man. I fall asleep at exactly the same time every night whether you call it 10pm...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    God, I've read about half of this thread so far and it just makes me spout some of my favorite memories. I started playing in December of 99 because I just read an article talking about how the FF creators had played and fell in love with EQ and wanted to do the same thing for Final Fantasy...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I have a sick feeling Tina is going to get a "floater" win because Gervase/Tyson and Aras/Vytas are going to be too focused on destroying each other (and bringing down the other guys as collateral damage) while she and her daughter float by. She played way before I started watching, but I...

    Why is it that coaches are seemingly the last people on this planet to actually see that? Nothing rustles me worse than watching a coach try to do four yards and a cloud of dust or play soft defense "to prevent the big play," because they have a touchdown lead. This isn't friggin 1958 where it...

    Imagine that... Tennessee being absolutely anally violated by Alabama. I hope Saban stays because I want to see Tennessee beat him at least once before he retires. And what is up with Maryland's uniforms? Those almost compete with Oregon on the loudness factor ugh...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The class stuff can come and go. What really caught my eye this time was how they mention the world map and a more open world design and adventure mode. God if they just have an open slate I can freely wander at my discretion I'd be a happy happy camper.

    Those computer rankings were... wow. No offense to Mizzou at all Joeboo, but I just don't see them as the best undefeated team at all (thus their number one ranking). They are having a great year, and I'm happy for them. But this is why the BCS is broken from the ground up. Even the...

    I may be crazy but I thought Franklin's replacement did not look all that bad and held up in a hostile environment. Although I'd love for him to suck against Tennessee And I know Texas has been down since their last trip to the National Champs, but it could be worse... as a Tennessee/Purdue...

    I'm no Longhorns fan (but not a hater either), and I really have no dog in the hunt.... However, it seems to me that Mack Brown is that coach where it'll take an epic meltdown two years in a row before they boot him, and it was funny watching Lou Holtz jump to his defense saying it was crap that...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    They definitely need more playable content with the dungeons randomized. However, since it takes this company ten years to draw a straight line that everyone working there likes, I don't see that happening. Heck that would have been a great way to make money for them. Add new dungeons for...

    I absolutely can't speak for VT, but for Tennessee, it's not that much of a stretch. The bulk of their fans are in Middle Tennessee (Nashville) which is already a 3-4 drive from Knoxville, another two at that point won't make that much of a difference, especially for a game that promises 160k...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Which is completely odd considering he took up practicing law after retiring from the NFL... I too watch BB and Survivor, and Hayden so far is playing an identical game to his Big Brother game: Low key. I mean even down to an all guy alliance. I'm shocked he didn't suggest naming it the...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I agree I think they really screwed up by trying to stick with the two tribe format at the beginning. This kind of theme just doesn't play well with that format in my opinion. But hell I still don't think this theme plays well period. At any rate, they honestly should have done it big brother...

    The score would have been 34 - 3 easily if not worse. Dooley was a shit stain of a coach. I'm actually somewhat encouraged by this game. This could have easily been a blowout (and yes it could still have been had Georgia had their receivers healthy), but Tennessee hung in there. Not a moral...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    The minute I heard the overall theme I instantly cooled to the idea... But now that it's revealed it's actually really just a fans vs favorites season (and honestly I can see why they did this, because fans vs favorites were two popular seasons). I was on the hardcore no returning players boat...

    Boston pedophile planned to kill and eat children(w/ bonus dungeon pictures)

    Right and this is why I don't really think this was a coping mechanism at all, because he was way way too thorough. He is a dead man walking and I am not going to be pumping my fist about that necessarily but he and his ilk need to be off the streets. It is very sad that there some who are in...
