  1. Yeah I am not good with that at all. It's different if I am out of market and want to see a reg season game versus what is supposed to be a national broadcast costing additional money.
  2. I'd be good with that. Give us our local teams for free over the air broadcast and let us pick a game(s) to watch streaming or how ever for $5 a game, similar to streaming a new release movie? They could still sell commercials plus get the PPV fee. I'd be willing to pay $5 per week to see every Dallas game since I am out of market.
  3. RIP Doyle Brunson, aka Texas Dolly. He was the godfather of poker and became a celebrity because of it. I got into hold em after seeing the WSOP main event on ESPN as many others did and learned of the legends in the years after. I did read some of Super system and it helped me in the beginning. Always had a smile on his face and took bad beats with grace.
  4. If you have the time, yes. There are some really good characters and S1 is really good. As mentioned they don't stick the landing but it is worth the journey.
  5. I did say IMO. The guard needed to die because he would have raised the alarm and Joel and co. would have been caught and killed before getting to the rendezvous spot. You talk about the torture and then killing, those guys were there to kill him, again I have clearly stated if you try to kill him, you are fair game to kill, never said anything to the contrary. As to the rampage sequence, again, those people would have killed him if he didn't have the upper hand, I can't understand how anyone thinks other wise, so they are fair game. He had Ellie but they absolutely were not safe.
  6. I think they handled the issue pretty well, as well as you can I guess. We all know that there will be a few, or more than a few, teammates who aren't ok with it and who would leak it to the media immediately. Pretty sure we saw Roy get his ass chewed and called out for his BS issues and then ultimately do the press conference for a reason. I agree that Ted and Beard leave at the end of the season and I think Roy and Nathan take over together. It's clear Nathan isn't long for his current position and I assume dipshit owner gets caught cheating at the end and his new wife takes that club from him just like he lost the other one!?!? Obviously a stretch but it would be funny to see his ex wives running both clubs as friends while he is in misery.
  7. Not IMO. If anything in that world they need to protect doctors and skilled nurses. Joel, as we have seen him so far, won't kill just to kill. He knows the fireflies that dropped their weapons would've killed him if they had the chance, that's the difference in my viewing of it.
  8. Mine shows an older movie every week, this just hasn't come up yet. Did take family to see Elf two years ago and theater was like 75% full, $5 a person for the older movies. This coming week is Grease
  9. Someone who isn't armed and showed no inclination to get a weapon isn't the same. Witness, sure of course, but not a threat.
  10. Yeah but he was in a no prisoner situation, he couldn't lock them up or just hope that once he left that area that they wouldn't arm themselves and kill him.
  11. I think he spared anyone not armed. He wasn't going to kill the doctor until he grabbed the scalpel and came at him. The nurses posed no threat. BTW I forgot to come to this thread a couple weeks ago. There was a fungus outbreak in a northern Michigan lumber mill that sickened 50+ people and shut the mill down. They reopened the mill this week. My mind went to The Last of Us!
  12. No, but it can heat him enough to change his structural integrity!
  13. If Heat played near me as a throw back I might go see it for the shoot out scene alone. I didn't see it in the theatre originally so not sure if the size would improve the experience even more.
  14. Had same feeling about Bullet Train. I knew it was a dumb action movie but I liked it for that more than I thought I would. And The Lost City, yeah a cut rate Romancing the Stone.
  15. As to the spoiler, yeah the whole sequence spawned pages of debate in The Last of Us thread.
  16. I said the same thing. Was at the theater a few weeks ago and it was busy as hell, vast majority were there for this movie.
  17. This season does feel a little dragging. I think part of the problem is seeing Ted as human and not just the chipper false faced happy guy. He puts on a happy face for everyone to hide the pain he is in. He hates it there and wants to be home with his family. The Keely tape thing was a bit out of no where and could lead to her and Jaime getting back together. They are a better fit than she and anyone else. Roy was already not working with her and was getting interested with that teacher last season, where did that go btw? And when he spoke to Keely about the tape instead of just being a friend he showed his jealous side and asked who it was for. They are not meant for each other. Keely and Jaime are a good pair. I could see it wrapping up with Jaime and Keely together. Ted and beard heading back to the US. Then one of two things, either Roy takes over as coach or the boy wonder leaves West Ham and comes back to his home team. I am also assuming the last episode has the Greyhounds beating West Ham, or Manchester. In any case it was a fun couple of seasons and hopefully it ends well.
  18. Watched Guardians Vol 3 this weekend, pretty good and worth the matinee price. Gives some tear jerker moments for our favorite vermin. I still think the original is by far the best. It amazes me how much passion pops up whenever someone mentions Jurassic Park on here. No matter what it gets like two pages of comments. I haven't been able to watch the newest one, got a few min into it and was already playing on my phone. Hated the one before that and really didn't like the one before that, the one with the high heeled track star.
  19. I've said it @Rhom but I haven't typed it.
  20. Another typical draft for Dallas, took best players at positions of need. Nothing splashy, no big trades. Been kind of nice not having Jerry do anything dumb to ruin the draft for a while. The Detroit draft had me puzzled on day 1 but after the draft was completed and had time to review it all it makes more sense.
  21. Watched The Covenant this weekend. Pretty good movie broken into 3 parts. The actors all did pretty good jobs and it showed the shit side of war pretty well. Forgot to mention how full the place was. Went to get popcorn and there were 40 people in line, that damn Super Mario movie is still killing it! I actually went to my movie and came back after the previews were done so the line was gone. My theater was about 1/3 to 1/2 full for an afternoon matinee.
  22. Some jackass caller on local radio was saying the Lions should take him at 18!!! They cut him off after confirming he said that.
  23. Return of The Jedi is playing at the theatre this weekend and I'm considering going to watch it, again.
  24. Here in the Detroit area it was said that Bellichek wanted Gibbs and when Detroit took him they decided to move back. Bill O'Brien was his coach at Alabama and the story being fed is that Gibbs to NE was a sure thing.
  25. Well Baltimore is building up the offense, just picked a WR and Jackson is signed so this should/could be an explosive offense.
