^^I agree with this. If he didn't catch the ball then it's not a touchdown even if he did happen to have a hand on it when it crossed the goal line.

Just watched the 90 minute premier. I don't know if it's just because I have some stuff on my mind, but I had a hard time sitting through it. Had a hard time remembering who everyone was and who has beef with who now, and I'm also having a hard time caring about most of them anymore. I think...

Are you a drug dealer? I would get on the biometrics bandwagon for sure if it could somehow replace passwords for all the websites I have to sign in to. I am so fucking sick of signing in to 100 different websites and having a bunch of passwords and shit to remember or more likely forget.

I haven't had good luck smoking baby backs either. They just cook too fast. I stick with spareribs now.

How many people here actually lock their phones? I don't think I know anyone that does. Personally I want to be able to loan my phone to people and not have to re-authenticate every time the screen shuts off and I'm not overly concerned that someone would do that much damage even if they got...

They could have at least had Harrison get into a life and death situation. She could have fixed that cut on his chin with a butterfly stitch or some super glue.

I won't argue with that.

Only if you're a pussy.

I foresee myself watching a lot of NFL network this season if ESPN is going to continue to never show more than 5 minutes of football analysis without putting Ray Lewis on the screen.

One of the harder lessons to learn as an adult. Sometimes it's in your own best interest to let somebody fuck you over and get on with your life rather than to fight for justice.

I'm watching the Redskins/Eagles game on DVR so I'm behind but holy shit does RG3 and the Redskins look like dogshit. I was not expecting that. If they look like this all season Shanahan's got to be in trouble. Mike Vick will not last the season. He is nearly getting sacked on every other...

I don't have a note but my brother has one and loves it. He carries it in his front pocket. If it's anything like my kindle you wouldn't want to sit down with it in your back pocket. When I did that in the car with the kindle it smashed the screen real well.

I'm not an expert and I don't know exactly what guns those dudes had, but I don't think any normal assault rifle is going to go all the way through the body and engine of a suburban and come out with lethal force on the other side. The doors? Sure, maybe even both doors if it's full metal...

It doesn't ruin the show or even the episode, but that was some A-1 Hollywood cheese and not up to the standard of this show. I do think people are getting carried away, but they are right to complain.

Comparing Breaking Bad to The A Team is like comparing the movie Titanic to Gilligan's Island.

I guess Jesse was shot while lying flat on his back and without making an entrance wound. That Heisenberg is amazing.

Because the cops are not looking for someone traveling with her husband and kid. SHE CANNOT BE RECOGNIZED IF SHE'S STANDING NEXT TO SOMEONE YOU DIDN'T EXPECT.

I have to agree with the consensus on that gunfight being one of the worst things that's been on Breaking Bad. They also did the "guns have infinite ammo" thing to an extreme. I counted and Hank fired 9 times on just one of the 7 times he popped up from behind the blazer. Those full autos...

I had a Bison rib eye at Ted Turner's restaurant in Bozeman, MT about a year ago and it was fucking fantastic. I couldn't tell that it wasn't beef though, other than the fact that it cost an extra $10. That is the only one I have eaten though, so I can't really speak generally about them, but...

I can't bring myself to give a shit about Cowboys/Giants. The Packers/49ers game was fucking great though. Packers looked good. They had to hate going into candlestick for their first game after getting embarrassed there in the playoffs. Loved the hell out of Kaep's 400 yard passing game...

I hope if I have kids I can get them to eat stuff. I fucking hate kids that won't eat anything and the only thing that is worse is an adult like that.

I think the Alcatraz tour is cool even though I've done it like 7 times with various friends and relatives. Most of the locals hate it because they have to go every time their friends and family visit. If you want to go you need to make reservations online a few days in advance though. They...

This. Christians fucking love the guy. He can probably sell out stadiums in the south and the midwest.

This stuff is pretty cheap. I don't know if I'd call it great, but it does have the distinction of being mentioned in a couple episodes of Mad Men and it was supposedly drunk by Charles Bukowski. It has high rye content similar to Bulleit so it would be considered a "full bodied" bourbon. If...

I wouldn't buy the fancy locks personally. Nobody picks locks to burgle houses when it's easier to just kick the door in or break a window. Even if they do use bump keys (which are harder to use than you think BTW, I have a set and have never been able to get them to work) anyone that will go...

Nobody expects the THX theater experience from a tablet or a phone, but it's nice if if you want to show somebody or a group of people a youtube video or something the speakers are at least loud enough that they can hear them and understand what people are saying and a lot of tablets/phones and...

Does that really seem that enjoyable? I haven't tried it but it seems to me that if you get to that point, you would be just better off letting her jerk herself off while you smother yourself with a grocery bag to get the same effect.

Never tried one, but it would definitely be good for a few "WTF is that thing?" reactions from guests. FWIW, the damn AirDyne came but the RPM sensor was defective. Waiting for a replacement now.

FWIW, I know this thread is about Marxism now, but the Freakonomics podcast re-aired a pretty good episode about suicide this week: Freakonomics Radio Podcast: "The Suicide Paradox"

Anyone who is contemplating opening an eating/drinking establishment should read "Kitchen Confidential" by Anthony Bourdain IMO. I know it's pretty dated now, but it's a blast to read and funny as hell and will give you a lot to think about. In particular, check outthis chapter.

I don't know if he was even at the game, but since they made him #1 in the season countdown, I was thinking that having him get struck by lightning right before the opening kickoff would be a pretty amazing way to start the season.

Why are you so worried about bleeding edge processor clock rates? My phone is 2 generations old (galaxy nexus) and I have no yearning for more processor power for what I do with it. If there's a tradeoff between processor power and battery life I would go with battery life every time.

I think that anyone that thinks a watch is useless hasn't worn one recently. When you're wearing a watch you *always* know what time it is because it just takes a quick glance down to see it. By comparison, getting a phone out of your hip pocket is a pretty big deal, especially if you're...

Cooking for kids has to be lame.

Depending on how it was built a wood bumper could definitely be stronger than the plastic over styrofoam bumpers that are routinely used on modern cars. In fact now that you mention it, I remember a small scandal when I was a kid when the winner of a local demolition derby was accused of...

I like how you are all shocked that someone would be allowed to drive a car without airbags in the US and then post a link of how it would also not be illegal in the UK. I'm sure if a cop had the urge to cite you for a homemade wooden bumper they probably could. People don't drive shitty cars...

BTW, the 9ers would have won both Rams games if it wasn't for Akers missing very makeable field goals. If the new guy can make field goals over 35 yards that will make a pretty significant difference.

Yeah, they have just both been so bad in the last 10 years or so that no one cared.

Agreed. The mountain barely even speaks. As long as he is huge and can be taught to sword fight somewhat convincingly he will be better than the last dude.
