I don't get this either. I think Collinsworth is one of the best at pointing out subtle things on the field that as a fan I would never see and is able to explain things without descending into jargon like some analysts. Joe Buck I have no strong opinions about but I find it strange that...

The part of the insulin pump that transmits is outside the body and has batteries that have to be charged or changed regularly. You need to understand that for something to transmit a significant distance it needs batteries and an antenna so it's not like a tiny chip under your skin is going to...

FINALLY I got flamed by Lumi. You don't know how long I've been waiting for this day.

I really wanted the Pixel 2 XL but no headphone jack and no wireless charging is 2 strikes against it for me. I was prepared for the headphone jack but I thought sure that it would have wireless charging. I don't care about plugging it in, but the first thing to go bad on all of my phones is the...

Who was also unstoppable in the 2012 playoffs. Don't let what has happened since taint your memory.

He doesn't win any superbowls, and wasn't in 2012 either. Like I said, what has happened since has nothing to do with what was going on in 2012.

Assuming that you don't have the benefit of 5 years of hindsight obviously. But regardless, there's no reason to think that Smith would have played better than Kaepernick in 2012. Kaepernick dominated the playoffs and still came up one pass short.

Yeah, benched him for this. Whatever happened down the road, it's hard to argue that Harbaugh made the wrong call.

Fan fiction. Kaepernick carried the 49ers in those playoffs. Alex Smith had his chance the year before and didn't get there.

Alex Smith becomes an elite quarterback only 12 years after being drafted #1. That clock expired touchdown to cover the spread must have had some people pulling their hair out.

Even though McCheese loves the brown sugar bacon, I advise you to proceed with caution. If you don't think dumping a bunch of sugar on your sandwich sounds like a good idea, the brown sugar bacon might not be for you. I got the BLT and actually gave half of it to my dog which I never do. Way...

It was a pretty shocking collapse. I think that part of it was the Harbaugh/Baalke drama but also part of it was NFL defenses figuring out the read option. SF had a great defense and a solid O-line at the time but the offense was a gimmick that pretty much collapsed at the same time as the...

Too much poop in it.

The 49ers played in the super bowl 5 years ago. There are a bunch of teams that haven't sniffed a super bowl in a lot longer than that and there are 13 franchises that have never won a superbowl and 4 that have never even played in one. We have very little to complain about despite the fact...

Yeah, but presumably now you are an adult and have found out what butter tastes like.

This is great but I never plan ahead this much so I always wind up microwaving them. What the hell is wrong with you?

I kind of thought that would have to be the case. Cool gimmick but probably not something people actually want to eat after they try it once.

The only thing youtube ever suggests for me is Ben Shapiro videos. He gets suggested even when I'm watching a how-to video or something totally unrelated, and it's not like I'm a fan. I clicked a couple videos of his from various threads here but I've never searched him out but YouTube won't...

There's zero chance that he wasn't kind of a creep. I'm 40 and I would feel like a total creep sleeping with a 19 year old. This guy was doing it in his 80s.

I flipped through a copy of the non-nude playboy in an airport newsstand right after this happened just to see what it was like. There's about 4 square inches of skin that they don't show in the pictorials now but I guess it gets it out of the porn section. The pictorials are still nude, but...

Sure.....you saw the limp dick doctor for....kidney stones.

I liked the idea of the idol that is only useable at the first tribal but it's not surprising that it wouldn't get used unless the person getting voted out had it. There is no alliance worth sticking your neck out for at the first tribal. Still better than waiting the whole season for it to be...

So how is it better than fb messenger that would justify trying to get your friends and family to switch?

Adam Carolla always says that most carpenters/contractors are not in the business because they love the work, they are in the business because they are unable to hold down any job that requires them to actually show up on time or pass a drug test. A lot of them are horrible at business too so...

It would be nice but it will never happen because apple very consciously maintains the idea of exclusivity with their ecosystem which is one of the big reasons I don't use their stuff.

Yeah, iMessage is a dumb reason to use an iPhone when you can use whatsapp or facebook messenger or hangouts and do everything that imessage does AND talk to android users but I know once people get started with something they don't want to change. I actually love FB messenger. My...

Me too.

Chuk, between the various threads, you have written enough to fill a book about how TV shows suck. A book that no one would ever, ever want to read. Maybe you should think of something better to do with your time.

Owen JJ Stone was on TWiT this week and I think he explained the real reason people pay more for iPhones. (Don't let the running time scare you, it's cued up to the right point and you only need to listen to like 1 minute.) It's all about successful marketing making people feel superior for...

Well that was fun. I was predicting a defensive slugfest similar to the Seahawks game so 80 combined points is just ridiculous. Worst part is not the loss but the injuries. The defensive secondary was the weak spot before half of them got injured.

I don't recall any "SJW shit" in this episode. If you think making fun of Trumps blowhard tweets is the same as the Daily Show then you're just a partisan. I laughed quite a few times at this episode and I want to remind people that any time you agree with Chuk on a TV show you are automatically...

I don't think any one said there is no difference. If FB opening slightly faster is worth $800 to you, that's your prerogative.

My brother recently bought a Moto G Plus and he really likes it. It's not as big as the flagship phones and probably doesn't have as nice a screen or quite as good a camera but it has close to pure android on it, and you can get one new for as little as $185 if you are willing to let Amazon put...

49ers defense is officially pretty good. The offense is complete dogshit aside from Carlos Hyde but they've played 2 very good defenses. Seattle had zilch on the ground until the second half of the 4th when the defense was finally gassed from being on the field 90% of the game. What offense...

I used Swiftkey for years but switched to the standard Android keyboard when it got Swype capabilities and haven't found a reason to switch back.

Salmon fishing in Alaska is awesome if you can stand the crowds. I was skeptical when I got there and saw how many people were on the river but snagging those big bastards on a fly rod was fun enough to make me forget about all the other people.

Skin is definitely the best part of a baked potato. Can't say I've given much thought to the eating method, but you do want to try to get the toppings spread out through the whole thing so you don't wind up with a bunch of plain potato at the end.

I always watch the game off of the DVR now. Even if I'm there for the kickoff, I'll watch some other show for an hour and then fast forward the commercials and usually catch up by the end of the game. Anytime I watch a live game I'm struck by how many commercials there are.

This thread is now just 10 people that hate good tv bitching at Screamfeeder.

Eastern MT got burned a lot as well. One fire north of me burned over 300,000 acres. Some ranchers lost 100% of their grass and fences and had to ship all of the cattle that lived to feedlots in Nebraska and they're going to live down there for the winter and work at the feedlot to help pay...
