Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 The main beef I have with Universal (and this is Hollywood I'm talking about, I've never been to the Florida version) is so many of their rides are cut from the same prototype. That is a car or cart that just kind of jerks back and forth to a video/audio accompaniment. Transformers/Simpsons/Despicable Me are all basically the same ride with a different backdrop.

We took a trip to the Pocono Mountains earlier this summer, what a dump. Terrible food everywhere we went, and it looked like The People of Walmart website. The worst of all was the ridiculous alcohol laws. I couldn't wait to get back to a normal state by the end of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never go out east, the rank of Philadelphia has ruined that half of the state. I liken it to going to Chernobyl . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That park is legit. The Spider-Man ride is the best theme park ride I've ever been on, and there are plenty of other good options like the Hulk coaster and the Dueling Dragons (which I think is now the Harry Potter ride but not sure). It's not as if Universal is some shitty park with no rides. It has some great rides. Cedar Point has more great coasters, to be sure, but at the ripe age of 31, if I'm going to a theme park, I'd rather spend the day being moderately comfortable while waiting in two hour lines than wanting to kill myself and dying of dehydration like I would at Cedar Point. See that's the thing, I have no interest in a theme park. If I go it's only for the rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't talk about the story of football for the last 30 years without bringing his name up. Of course he should be in the HoF. There isn't another owner close to him. He should be in the hall.

Nictarion Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 @Mexal Time to hit the panic button yet? These injuries are out of control. WJIII, Billings, Lafell, Ogbuehi, Alford, Eifert, Kroft, Dennard, and now Fisher. Granted some of these guys are rookies and weren't going to play a lot anyway, but it seems like we can't go a day or two without another injury. Also, Mike Nugent has to go. What an awful preseason he's having. On the bright side Boyd looks really good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate it more than anything, especially to young players as I think rookie to 2nd year is where you can expect one of the biggest jumps and we're losing that from two expected contributors. That's what has happened with Dennard and it looks to be happening with Ogbuehi too. At least only WJ3 and Billings are long term injuries. Everyone else should be back, even if it takes a few games for them to play well. Problem there is our schedule is the hardest of any team for the first half of the season. Blah. At least Green/Boyd looks good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace, Extat Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Y'know, weird as it might sound because of how doubtful I am about their postseason abilities, I have all the faith in the world in Marvin Lewis to keep the Bengals on track for the division unless Dalton and Green both went down. If I wasn't working I'd check to confirm, but I feel like outside of the occasional weird Browning or late-night debacle the Bengals beat the teams their supposed to beat. And that's basically the litmus test for a quality squad and more than can be said of the Steelers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team is pretty solid and a D with Atkins/Dunlap/Burfict and an O with Dalton/Green/Hill/Bernard is enough to do some damage. It'd just be better with their last 4 first round picks...

sperry Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 So, it appears as if Josh Brown, the giants fucking KICKER, is BY FAR the worst domestic abuser out of anyone we've heard in the league, which includes Ray Rice, Greg Hardy, Junior Galette etc. Roger Goodell and co. felt a ONE GAME SUSPENSION was in line, in part because the victim (his wife) is too terrified to agree to an interview. What in the actual fuck. How is it possible to be this incompetent? How is this not getting more media traction, this is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace, Extat Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'm torn... on one hand, I like both Hue Jackson and RGIII and would love to see both succeed. On the other hand, at this point that would mean the Browns succeeding which I simply could not bear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A domestic abuser is terrible, of course, but they have to concentrate on the sick monsters who flout Goodell's authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the problem? I'm glad repeated violators of the drug policy can get reduced sentences on appeal. It's not like he did something really awful, like being generally aware of a conspiracy to deflate balls that weren't deflated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
