  1. In an era of instant gratification no results until after work is unacceptable. I want updates like its fantasy football Sunday.
  2. Did someone ID that kid with a red jacket!?!?!?!
  3. I voted early, during work and got paid to do it. So today I can screw around because no one is working as there is an election and everyone is freaking out.
  4. Im not sure where these numbers are coming from, I didnt think they could report on them until after the polls are closed. Id be suspicious regardless of whether it favors Dems or Repubs. (this is in reference to the NC number, I know the Ohio one was fake)
  5. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 10:37 AM) When did it switch from Armistice Day? 1954? Is when they started using Veterans day, but that is obviously because of World War II and the WWI no longer being "The war to end all wars." QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 10:37 AM) I am sure employers would rather not give their people another payed holiday. So, many would probably argue if you want to add a new holiday, another needs to be removed. I picked to merge Veterans and Memorial day because.. lets be honest, on most memorial day observances, we already honor current veterans. If voting is important, then its day off should be on its own merit. Not some sort of tradeoff. Its not happening anytime soon, the people with power like this method.
  6. That math doesnt even make sense, unless Ohio is overwhelmingly Democrat.
  7. Id rather not get rid of 11/11 seeing as that is a world holiday. There really is no reason that election day cant just be a holiday on its own.
  8. For whatever reason both Democrats and Republicans believe they have an advantage by not giving everyone the day off. Ive always thought having giving people the day off and having it on a Monday makes a lot of sense.
  9. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 08:54 AM) I thought all of the games went into their on demand listings. That's the way it used to be anyway, for a period of time after the event. I believe this is true.

    2012 TV Thread

    http://bit.ly/syfybac If anyone is interested, the new Battlestar Galactica, Blood and Chrome, seems to be starting soon.
  11. The first presidential election I voted in (Gore v. Bush), I had to wait almost 2 hours to vote. But that was in Wisconsin, which might as well be Canada.
  12. Thats how it was on the ballot. I read that a few times and wasnt sure why if you were in Chicago youd vote against it...
  13. And with the Bears defense playing at an elite level that just makes no sense. If there is no good read, just throw the ball away. I dont know if there is a throw away stat, but my guess is that Cutler is on the low end.
  14. I was in the yahoo chat, selecting Martin when it froze and autoed me Maclin, a player who I would never draft. Id likely be in first place but for that bulls***.
  15. Lee DeWyze was at the Karaokee bar I was at Friday. Not sure how I feel about that.
  16. Jay moved from the pressure, and instead of just throwing the ball away, thought he would be able to run away from Suh. Part of the OL's issue is Cutler, because he does a lot of odd things with the ball. Im pretty sure he was sacked on a screen play because after the rb route was messed up, he held onto the ball as if there was another option.
  17. If youre interested in why Zoom's been so quiet, its because hes been locked in a room writing this preview. http://flapship.com/big-ten-ncaa-basketball-preview/
  18. I play in a 14 team league and it just depends on a lot of factors. Martin was drafted end of 3rd round in my league. Grr (this is about yahoo draft client screwing me out of martin)
  19. Like how much it costs to reassemble a human corpse that is involved in a 1k mph crash.

    It came with my computer. Its different. So far has been running well, but only have had it for a day.
  21. Wisconsin is in real trouble offensively after the Stave injury.
  22. Once again Chryst makes things more difficult by not just putting it in the middle.
  23. No doubt, I though it was going to be really close on replay and controversial.
