    War with Syria

    Not this year. I didn't even really answer your question when I responded. I guess I'm sick of it for other reasons. I feel like I have 9/11 fatigue. I don't think the government is using it particularly push an agenda, but they'll capitalize on it as needed to reinforce their opinion that we...

    War with Syria

    What's the difference between 9/11 and a cow? You stop milking the cow after 12 years. Whatever it takes to get the public behind whatever the US Govt feels like doing. Edit: And the media. And that guy in your platoon that everyone hated. He's probably out in the food court at a mall in...

    2013 NFL Season

    I feel like the refs let it go since it could be reviewed, but then the problem is if you say "it's a scoring play so we can review it np" and then every camera angle doesn't give you definitive evidence one way or another. Meh either way but the precedent of "lets just call it a touchdown and...

    2013 NFL Season

    I feel fairly confident in Manning breaking the TD's in a season record, which is 50(?) right now. The schedule is weak and the team is loaded. Just have to average a little over 3 td's a game and he's already got 7.

    War with Syria

    The chemical weapons attack that killed 1400 took place after Midnight on August 21st. The plane dropping a "napalm like substance" took place on August 29th(or the 30th? International date line/time zones...article was published on the 30th). I didn't watch Kerry or Obama speak but AFAIK the...

    War with Syria

    As I mentioned, the Russian-Afghanistan conflict was decades ago, from 1979 to 1989. Forgive my poor comparison of where the middle east might have received rocket launcher training since it is just one example; there are so many other places they could have picked it up, considering many arms...

    War with Syria

    He's been in power since 2000. He hasn't gassed anyone except the accusations that have recently been leveled against him by the US. His government has been winning the war and beating back the rebels, so why would he resort to gassing when he doesn't have to do so to win? As Strife mentioned...

    War with Syria

    Honestly if the US is going to kill him with cruise missiles, Assad might as well send out a final order shooting everything that can hit Israel, all the troops to burn their uniforms, blend in with the populace and keep fighting for their country guerilla style. "Army? What army? We're just...

    War with Syria

    74% of Syria is Sunni Muslim. Assad is an Alawite muslim, which is in the minority. Lets not forget that other Shiite denominations, Christians, Jews, and other minority religious groups largely support Assadbecause they don't want to get dragged out of their home and beheaded in the middle of...

    War with Syria

    If I was an Arab leader in another country this makes sense to me. "Oh there's a stalemate in the war in Syria and the conflict will continue for years to come? Good, keeps all the crazies off my lawn!" It's sad to admit, but there's always going to be conflict in the ME; might as well let them...

    NBA 2012-13 Season Thread - Crown The Heat!

    Greg Oden to sign with the Heat Welp. It's so hard to say how it'll turn out, but if he's healthy to help out against a Chicaco or Indianapolis in the playoffs with his size he's more than earned the small salary they're paying. I really want to see Oden come back and do well no matter...

    I bought a decent gaming laptop for $900 since I am on the road a lot. I try to play PS2 using hotel internet, and the laptop only gets 10-20 fps during medium or larger fights. It doesn't work out so well. The things I find work okay with low fps are Engi support with ammo packs, lock-ons as...

    It's been a while. Maybe it's time for an update! Here's what has changed over the last couple of months. This is NOT in chronological order, just off the top of my head: - The air/ground dynamics have been changed. MAX's now have a wider cone of fire on their flak, reducing their...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I think the WiiU isn't great(don't have one, can't give a stronger opinion). That said, what do you think about the WiiU selling well in the future as a second home console? The thought is that most families will likely get a XBone or PS4, and then pick up the WiiU down the road "for the kids"...

    I think since the Jaegers were falling faster than they could build them, the politicians of the world decided to go with a wall plan even though they knew it wouldn't work. When the Jaegers started falling people began to lose hope, so the bureaucrats said "Hey, let's make a wall to make them...

    This. Make one world with Mystcraft for people to quarry and then disable any more worlds from being created. If you don't you will be sorry (Mystcraft crashed, lagged, and corrupted a lot of data on the FTB server I play on constantly).

    Grats to the Spurs for having a great team and being part of such a great Finals series. Kawhi Leonard is gonna be a beast. Great defense by the Heat. Tony Parker disappeared as much as Danny Green did, which I did not expect to that magnitude. Nobody will talk about it, but lots of...

    I think the refs did a poor job. They called a lot of ticky tack fouls, but at the same time they let some serious mugging take place. Both Heat and Spurs fans had plenty of room to bitch about the refs tonight. But they're talking about it post game: The Spurs choked. It's simple as that...

    They need him for spacing unless they trade him for a big man that can play inside. He's critical for the way they run the offense. If they can't get a good inside big for him they're probably better off keeping him. And Daez is right; Wade mouthing off to Joey and no T? Wow.

    There's only been five Game 7's in the Finals since 1984. I think they would be doing more "fixing" but with ratings at an all time high, I don't think it's worth damaging anything by fixing a game. Game 6 between the Kings and Lakers in 2002...now THAT was fixed. Oh and the D-wades vs...
