Curious if there are still people out there genuinely thinking "Hell yeah! So glad I voted for him."

President-Elect Donald Trump: The Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 07:29 PM) Because he's the incoming President and the only people who could change that are a Republican Congress. Is there a law that requires he get intelligence briefings prior to the inauguration? If he's involved in treasonous acts then the CIA and FBI should be investigating without informing him.

President-Elect Donald Trump: The Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 07:22 PM) So...realized while heading home that since the CNN report that everyone seems to believe says that the intelligence agencies believe the Russian blackmailing allegations are credible...last week the intelligence chairs had to sit across the table from a man they believe is being blackmailed by Russians and who probably owes the Russians billions of dollars and tell him to his face that they believe he's being blackmailed by the Russians. Knowing that 2 weeks later he could probably jail them. I...do not envy that job. Why is he even involved? Seems like there might be some treason involved.

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 07:42 PM) I just happened to stumble on the Fenix 3 as a result of this crazy bike thing I am doing. Lot of good reviews about the heart rate data available on the 3. Starting to research heart rate training so I was interested in maybe replacing my Apple watch with one of these suckers. I'm sure the 5 will be even better. Here's a detailed breakdown of the 3 vs. the 5.

President-Elect Donald Trump: The Thread
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 02:58 PM) Sure is good that America decided a mentally ill narcissist with zero experience or ability to comprehend his job but a bigly desire to insult people on twitter was the right person for President. A complete disaster and he hasn't even been officially inaugurated yet.

2016-2017 NFL Thread
Random question. Does anyone who uses Verizon's NFL Mobile app have any idea how to read the various symbols/numbers displayed when following a particular live game? I figured it was some sort of drive chart or something but it makes no sense and isn't intuitive to me. Couldn't find anything with a google search.

2017 Watercooler TV thread
Finally gave up on Always Sunny after watching a few eps of season 11 on Netflix. Felt like a chore to get through with too few laughs. Should have ended the series a while ago.

2016-2017 NFL Thread
Weekend predictions: Oakland over Houston (predicting Cook has a decent game) Seattle over Detroit (Nailbiter that may come down to the last team with the ball) Green Bay over NY (Rodgers breaks it open in 2nd half after an early slug fest) Pittsburgh over Miami (Surprisingly high scoring)

QUOTE (brett05 @ Dec 29, 2016 -> 08:42 AM) Yes, refuse to not do YOUR JOB and expect to be PAID as if you DID. Makes sense. I'm sure you said the same thing about pharmacists who refused to sell birth control.

It's that time of year
QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Dec 28, 2016 -> 09:18 AM) Watched the first season of the Americans and was not enamored by it. Do seasons two and on get better? I personally feel that the show gets better each season.

Started binging HBO's Insecure last night. Really good.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 22, 2016 -> 02:18 PM) I started Better Call Saul two nights ago. Definitely has that same binge watch feel that Breaking Bad had. Also hoping I can convince the wife to watch Fargo. Figure we could get through that in five days easy. Both of those shows are fantastic.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 08:36 PM) Mr. Robot is great...love that show. Agreed. One of my favorites. Didn't the new season just come out a couple weeks ago? QUOTE (danman31 @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 09:14 PM) The Americans. It's routinely on best of the year lists from critics. The first 3 seasons are on Amazon Prime. It doesn't get nearly enough buzz outside of critics though. More people should watch it. Agreed. Excellent show.

I checked out the pilot of Bajillion Dollar Properties and enjoyed it. Would have to either pay for a Seeso subscription or buy episodes individually on Amazon to watch the rest. Not sure if it's worth extra $.

I may finally take the plunge and start GoT but wouldn't mind a few other suggestions. Here are a few suggestions for you all: Catastrophe (30 minute episodes. Short seasons. Funny) Westworld (Only 1 season to catch up on. High production value and great acting. Sci-Fi/Mystery) Atlanta (20ish minute episodes. Only 1 season. Funny)

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 21, 2016 -> 04:25 AM) Yeah. It's getting ripped pretty bad by critics and on twitter. It looks so hokey in the trailers. I had zero interest to see it even before the awful reviews.
