  1. Finished Reacher S2 and yeah it was a little much even for what it is. That said I will be watching S3 no question. If it goes back to having less of a team and more of the one man army I think it will be better.
  2. Part 3 was bad, just bad. And I like big dumb shoot em up popcorn movies.
  3. With a name like King of The North you would think you would pick the reigning Kings of the North division! Lamar looks totally in control of this game.
  4. Same except I'm taking the Bills
  5. Watched Echo and it was ok. It's only 5 episodes so you don't have to invest too much into it. It basically felt like a five episode origin story. If it gets another season I'll watch but if not I won't even remember it. One or two good characters, lots of stuff makes no sense but that's expected nowadays.
  6. Gotta love sound bytes. Reporter in Tampa asked Coach Bowles if he is doing anything to prep the team, since it's 7deg in Detroit right now. He gives a bit of a smile, "you do know they play in a dome right"?
  7. I think/hope part of the problem is the extra characters. Reacher at it's best is him and maybe a new side kick from the random town he is in. The absurdity level has to get amped up when you have the rest of the team members there and they also have to get their bad ass moments. Hoping that S3 is back to Reacher in a small town, maybe Neely for an episode or two but that's it. Another part of the issue, this book came out close to 20 years ago. Every living human didn't have a smart phone back then. Seeing the action now and knowing it would be on the internet live kind of takes you out of the moment unless you turn that part of your brain off. Speaking of turning your brain off. I saw The Beekeeper.... wtf was I thinking. I was desperate and hadn't seen a movie in a while and I have 4 free tickets that expire at end of February so against my instinct I saw this. Holy make no sense and is just stupid. There are a couple scenes that make the office scenes in The Wolf of Wall St seem tame. I can deal w plenty of dumb shit in a movie if it's at least mildly entertaining and makes some sense. Nope. Not even gonna bother with spoilers to try to explain the stupidity. Be glad I saved you the time and don't even watch this at home for free.
  8. Well looks like Nick Saban is retiring. All things come to an end. Bellicheck will be next probably. Two goats in one season.
  9. Same here. He's staying on w the team. Unfortunately for Cowboys fans Quinn is one logical candidate since he coached there as an asst before.
  10. I read an article on this and was kind of surprised. I like The Mandalorian as a cheesy western type series but as a movie? I guess if done right it can be good but I know I wasn't sitting at home thinking I needed to see this as a movie.
  11. He doesn't seem that quick, Edwards always seemed the faster of the two.
  12. When I was watching it I was having flashbacks to Nick Mullens this season. He chucks that thing and hopes his receivers catch it.
  13. Was a great game to watch as a Michigan fan. I didn't feel comfortable until Sanristil made that last pick. Just felt like another Michigan post season let down was coming. I did see a couple holds that should have been called against us but that stuff happens every game. I also wonder about Penix draft stock. He struggled and made some throws that made no sense. He was basically just chucking the ball up and hoping his all world receivers would catch it. All that and Michigan didn't really hit him that much, IMO.
  14. Ah, I must've misread it, was thinking man, The Wire is so much better than Bosch!
  15. That's my fear. Stafford, Kupp, Pucua, and RB Williams are a force.
  16. And be careful calling Bosch equal to The Wire, you will anger a lot of people!
  17. I hope SF wins. If Dallas locks up 2 spot I don't wanna see a hot Rams team in round 1.
  18. I've seen the opposite, two tackles in top 10, two WR's and the TE from Georgia, and teams always reach for two DE/Edge in the top 10. That only leaves 2-3 spots. Of course between now and then this will all change plus some combine wonder boy will sneak up the boards.
  19. Well if they trade #1 for 10-15 range pick(and several others) they can have their choice of a 2nd tier QB from this class if they wanted to. I know the draft hype train hasn't started yet but, Williams, Maye are going in top 4. Then you have Daniels, Ewers, Penix, McCarthy, Nix etc. who will be there later for a much less valuable pick. You could draft one of them and if Fields shows no progress try the rookie QB out half way through the season. In theory you would be putting the rookie into a better position talent wise than Fields had when he first started.
  20. Roscoe vs Dixon BTW, as to the season getting dumb, welcome to Reacher! It's just big dumb fun. No true hard to figure out mystery, very little development. Reacher steps off bus, helps someone getting bullied, killing ensues, Reacher leaves.
  21. Watched Beef, didn't know anything about it going in. Pretty good series about some messed up people. I think the last episode tainted it for me, not the actual ending but the rest of it.
  22. Agree. He seemed rattled a lot of this season. If I am Chicago I try to trade for as much as I can get and I may even try for a top notch OL player instead of one of the picks, to help Fields out. Chicago looked decent down the stretch and there are games where Fields dominates, so why take the unknown, unless your GM and coach both agree that Mayes / Williams is the chosen one?
  23. Same here. Always root B1G but I can't root for buckeyes unless they are playing an SEC school. Obviously only then because I am sick of the SEC being so good. If buckeyes were playing anyone else I root against them. I missed seeing Feinbum make his excuses for Bama losing. To him the playoffs should only happen if two SEC teams are in it every year. Gonna have to look for his first tv appearance after the game to see what he said.
  24. You sound like a Michigan fan when the buckeyes face Bama or Georgia. Basically hate watching the game, hoping they all fail.
  25. Two great endings. Hope next week is this good.
