Catch All Anything Thread
Parents are flying into O'Hare from AZ today for holidays. Usually when I pick them up, I have to wait because their flight is delayed or something. Today, I am tracking their flight online and going to time it out perfectly where I will arrive 20 minutes after they land and they will be waiting for ME for once. /Costanza rant

Official Squared Circle Thread
I really hope TLC is the last of Del Rio in the title picture for awhile. Boring. WOuld love a Punk vs. Miz or Ziggler main event at Rumble. Actually, a Punk vs. Miz title match at Mania would be fine with me. I love watching Ziggler wrestle. He bumps like nobody else in the company. Orton used to be like that.

NEWSFLASH: Ex-Sox Santo elected to Hall of Fame
I understand his numbers were good and he had the gold gloves, but I always saw the Hall of Fame as something special for people to get in with besides numbers. A moment or a aura about a player. Ozzie Smith didn't have good offensive numbers but he was awesome at SS, had teh highlights, the rings, and the moment, such as his homer and Jack Buck's call. Santo has the clicking of the heels. It's not even because he was a Cub as to why I don't want him in.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) FSU is incredibly boring. Most ND fans I know want ND to lose if it means Rees never starts again. The ND fans you know are idiots. Rees is the best option. Not enough experience to just throw him aside.- Official 2011-2012 NFL Thread
Dallas barely beat Wash and Miami and are now struggling with Arizona. Think only one win vs team with winning record in SF. Not a believer.- Official 2011-2012 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:02 PM) Ok State impressed the hell out of me. I hate the SEC though. So boring. This x100. If it is LSU and Bama again, it soldifies my hatred of college football. Not one person can convince me that Alabama should be in that game over OK State.- Official 2011-2012 NFL Thread
SF defense is great but I can't see them winning a game in the playoffs against the likes of GB, NO, and maybe even Dallas and NY despite beating them already. Alex Smith is still Alex Smith and if Gore gets hurt again, they are screwed there. They just won't be able to score enough IMO.- 2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread
Don't kill the messenger if nothing happens but heard Calipari about to get into more hot water. Something big that has IHSA and high school associations around the country scrambling.- 2011 TV Thread
Ron Swanson not understanding why his pop up was personalized and his reaction to Google Earth showing his house was perfect.- NBA Offseason Thread
The Knicks have literally nothing to trade for CP. Even if he somehow ends up in NY, his health is on the decline. He hasn't missed as many games as I thought but that Big 3 isn't nearly as intimidating as Lebron and Wade.- NBA Offseason Thread
I wouldn't mind Grant Hill in a Bulls uni. He is up there in age but still plays good defense and still is aggressive on offense going to the hole. 3 point shooting wouldn't be a string suit though but I would take his 40% from behind the arc from last season.- NBA Offseason Thread
Please, God, no Jamal Crawford.- 2011 Films Thread
I felt The Fighter was highly overrated but Bale was better than any of the other 3.- 2011 Films Thread
QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Nov 30, 2011 -> 05:08 PM) Warrior anyone? Already hearing: Best fighting movie ever, etc. Saw it in the theatre. It is tremendous and encourage anyone and everyone to see it ASAP.- 2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 29, 2011 -> 03:52 PM) I guess I'm in the minority but I've liked the last couple HIMYM's... You're not alone. As long as its not 75% soap opera like, I still enjoy it.- 2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 29, 2011 -> 10:30 AM) Quite the plot twist in HIMYM last night. You mean last week? Last night was a rerun- 2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 28, 2011 -> 11:00 AM) Wouldn't be shocked if you were right. So many twists and turns and I love em all on the show.- 2011 TV Thread
Dexter with the predictable reveal but worked where I thought I would be disappointed. Hate having to wait a week now and wish I didn't see previews for it.- 2011 Films Thread
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 01:47 PM) Motel 8 sucked. I was done with the movie in the opening scenes where the guy takes on a freight train in a pick up truck and it doesn't explode into a million pieces and the guy survives with some cuts. Having seen what a passenger train at 55ish mph does to a pick up truck, I could never get past it. Plus the monster looked ripped straight out of Alien. I don't think it sucked but I was highly disappointed in it. I can see where some people would enjoy it but I had the same feeling towards the guy surviving a head on crash with a train.- Official 2011-2012 NFL Thread

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 26, 2011 -> 02:38 PM) Injuries, missed receivers and bad coaching. Things that most likely wont happen next year. Rivalry is a Rivalry no matter what. Teams are up, teams are down, injuries happen. This the game the next few years will by dynamite because both teams could be top 10 teams. - Official 2011-2012 NCAA Football Thread
