    Stick UCLA in the Big 10 West or whatever they call it nowadays, and they're playing in the Big 10 title game. They're damn good, and have a great QB. They absolutely destroyed Nebraska @ Nebraska. That's the 3rd best team in the Big 10. Ohio St might actually be good, but nobody knows...

    Our kiddo just got approved for the RSV shot/vaccination, since he was premature. 1 shot a month for 5 months, he's going to love that, lol. $50 co-pay per shot is a hell of a lot better than the $2000 per shot that our pediatrician told us it cost if you do it out of pocket(that wasn't...

    Most years, not even the National champ gets a lot of credit going into the next year(depending on who they lose), but you win 3 out of 4 and you build up a lot of good will with the voters, at that point you get the benefit of the doubt that you're damn good until proven otherwise. Stanford...

    Nobody gets any carry-over credit for anything done last year other than the national champion. We're basically at the point where everyone else has to prove themselves worthy to play Alabama for the title, and nothing other than what happens on the field this season is going to count for...

    No. Ohio St didn't win anything of note last year, they get no credit of any kind for last year. No conference championship, no bowl game, etc.

    Alabama gets the benefit of the doubt because they won the last 2 national titles. They're #1 until they lose. Everyone else has to prove themselves, and so far this year Florida St and Stanford have done the best jobs of that. Baylor and Ohio St have pretty looking records that have been...

    There were 5 B10 teams ranked in the pre-season AP poll. The SEC was the only conference with more. Don't give me the "we didn't get respected in the polls and we've had to claw our way up" argument, because it's completely invalid. All the teams fell out of the polls because they all started...

    In any 1 individual game, Ohio St might be favored, but give them 5 games against ranked teams over a 7 week period, and they're dropping one, if not more. It's more about the grind week-in and week-out against quality teams. There's no off week(or multiple ones to rest up) this year in the...

    As a frame of reference, Ohio State plays a total of 1 team that is currently in the top 25(Wisconsin, who is 24th). They'll probably get a 2nd in the Big 10 title game against Michigan St. This will be Stanfords 5th win against a top 25 team. And they still have probably 2 more, Notre Dame...

    CFB 2013-2014

    For the record, I think this game might be fairly close (within 7-10 points in the 4th quarter) but by no means should Stanford be ranked as high as #5. They lost to an unranked Utah team that is 1-4 in the Pac 12. Their only win is over Stanford. Easily the worst loss of any of the 1-loss...

    Substitute frozen cheese & spinach raviolis instead of lasagna noodles. Use those as your layer separations. It will blow your fucking mind how good it is in lasagna. The only slightly difficult part is separating the frozen raviolis apart from each other, might have to run a little warm...

    I'm curious, is anyone here actually influenced by indie games when making a console/platform purchase decision? I can't imagine many do. Sure, there are a lot of cool indie games, but I see them more of an extra little perk, but not really something that would influence my decision on a...

    Gamestop will push whatever Gamestop happens to have in stock at the moment. Nothing more, nothing less. If they somehow have both systems in stock, you'll probably get an honest opinion out of an employee. Otherwise, whatever is sitting in their back room is the greatest thing ever. It's...

    I agree Sinzar, early on, spellcasters really only have to worry about leveling their spell gem, and getting as much + spell damage on their wand as they can find, and they do great damage. The rest of the gear can all focus on survivability(hp/resists/movement) Melee have it rough early on...

    Right, but does that mean that those uniques can only drop from zones/maps that drop that level of loot, or just that if you want to try to chance one with an orb, you need that level of base loot? I have to think that Kaom's Heart is available as a drop before lvl 76 maps

    Speaking of best competition, Duke vs kansas next week to start the season in Chicago. Any predictions? I think Duke wins fairly handily. kansas is going to take a while to gel with the amount of young players and lack of returning experience. They will be a vastly different team at the end...

    It's possible I had the channels reversed...I just remember a definite difference between the various HD feeds. Some games looked great, another networks looked like ass in comparison. They most definitely did not all look the same.
