  1. RIP Toby Keith. Country music isn't my thing but a lot of his songs stuck with me. If there was a country singer I would see in person it would've been him.
  2. I also watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith recently. I liked the movie more but the series grew on me. I will be waiting for season 2. Watched Dune part 1. I never saw the original so this was all new to me. I guess I liked it, but I don't like it when I know it's just a set up for the next movie.
  3. IMO, it's because he is a pocket QB whose arm talent doesn't stand out. All he does is lead his team to wins, as if that's a bad thing.
  4. Watched Aniara this weekend. It's a Swedish movie I watched with English subtitles, didn't know that before starting it. It's a sci fi movie about people transporting from Earth to Mars. They don't say Earth is dying but do give glimpses of issues and many people have what appear to be scars from fires. It goes awry and shows their version of what would happen on a ship the size of a city that was meant for a few month journey that they are on much longer. What happens to the people, their mental states, water, food etc. Decent enough movie, nothing specifically remarkable except for one scene.
  5. While I'm enjoying the show there are a couple characters / actors who I am not liking, the main two pilots. Just something about their performances that feels fake to me. I have watched all three episodes and so far this trails The Pacific, which IMO was several clicks behind A Band of Brothers. Hopefully I get to know the characters better and the little nuances that currently annoy me go away. I liked how they showed the affect the cold air had on the gunners, a detail that other movies have not shown. Imagine being in that little bubble of plastic thousands of feet in the air and having it get shot out from under you.
  6. I've heard both, the story around here is he came back on his own choice. I think he wants big money to take that leap. wants it to be worth it. Also maybe wants a better situation. He also came back without a big raise so clearly money isn't the only factor.
  7. They didn't get tight at all, they did the opposite. Hell they had one drive where Sewell was basically a TE the whole drive. That's not getting tight, going for it on 4th down multiple times isn't getting tight. The "dumb shit" they did was the same shit they did all season. What happened is that a receiver dropped two very catchable 4th down passes and a ball bounced off a face mask on a 51 yard pass and the receiver made a one in a million catch. I do think they should have kicked a FG on the first drive of the second half though. Something he has to learn to do, take the points sometimes.
  8. 1st bold, well the bar was set pretty low with those two seasons! Underline, I think it's just the amount of sexuality, in just 3 episodes we see her have sex with her boss, she says she is on Tinder, then it's implied that she had sex with the young cop, hence Mrs. Robinson reference. 2nd bold, when I hear that term I reference it to the SE part of the US. Hearing it in Alaska seems odd, unless they are trying to tie those people in with season 1? Unless that's a common term used in Alaska?
  9. Thinking I am gonna skip next weeks and then binge two at a time, maybe it will work better for me. Also I clearly should've rewatched S1 because I missed the tie ins. Only watched S1 once and that was as it aired so none of it is fresh to me.
  10. This doesn't hold water. I liked Gump, still do and I've been given the nickname Liberal Dave.
  11. I also forgot cynicism but luckily for all of us we have you for that!
  12. Don't need to make dumb lazy jokes. You clearly haven't been near Detroit in a while.
  13. I was actually believing that Detroit was going to win. That first half was everything Detroit has done well all year. The second half, well that's how Detroit falls apart. All that was missing was some obscure penalty call against them. Had the Lions +7.5 points, Gibbs anytime TD and Gibbs 50 yards rushing. At half I was up 24.5 points, Gibbs had 40+/- yards rushing and a TD and I still lose because Gibbs can't get 10 yards in entire 2nd half, hell they barely got the 7.5 spread. It wasn't a lot of money but damn!
  14. Man the Ravens just can't get out of their own way. Clowney takes two steps and lowers his helmet and hits Mahomes in the helmet.
  15. And let Flowers know that this is the championship game and not to do dumb shit that hurts the team.
  16. Wow, amazing play by Jackson, avoids the sack then throws a dime for a TD.
  17. And just like that Swift haters united "I wish they would stop showing her, blah blah blah. He hasn't been good since he started dating her blah blah blah."
  18. I liked her in this, she didn't hold back. Seems to be who she is as a person. The movie, eh, was ok at best but she was good in it. Stop using logic to ruin Reacher for me!!! I wanna shut my brain off and just enjoy!
  19. Mahomes can wait, he isn't there yet. Lets not forget a few things. Mahomes took over a team that went 10-6, 12-4, and 11-5 the previous three seasons. That team had Tyreek Hill, Kareem Hunt, and Travis Kelce, all three had over 1000 yards the previous season without him, all top level pro bowl talent. Brady took over a team that was 0-2, previous years were 5-11, and 8-8. Brady didn't walk into the same situation as Mahomes did and yet he took them to the SB and won it, along with SIX others. Until Mahomes at least gets to four or five lets not be talking goat shit. There have been plenty of the next Michael Jordans.
  20. Belichik has 8 rings, Brady has 7. Yes 2 were as def coordinator but he still has 8.
  21. I'd say it's time for him to ride off in the sunset. Will be tough though since he made it known he wants to continue coaching, hard for someone with that much success to go out that way.
  22. I can't read this thread until tomorrow since I only watched Ep 1 so far but I couldn't hold this comment back. Wow that performance by Foster was bad. The scene in the truck when the drunk girl hits the sign. Foster acting like a badass was absolutely laughable and hard to watch. My wife (we watched it different days) said the same thing when we talked about the show last night. Will watch Ep 2 tonight so I can read this. Hopefully her acting like a badass dies down a bit.
