QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 10:37 AM) Nello Gamberdino II ‏@npgsports 117 fans at #49ers vs #Packers game arrested or ejected for drinking or fighting - wow! #stayclassySanFrancisco That stadium seats 70,207 - not including standing room only. I'm incredibly surprised by how low that number is, actually. WOW 0.17% of fans got ejected!

I had an incredibly vivid D-Rose dream last night. That he came back, and prior to the game showed off some dunks just to prove he was feeling good. The nerves I felt "watching" this action and his knees and being terrified have me concerned for how I'll react watching Bulls basketball from mid-February on... every move will scare the s*** out of me. #TheReturn

Pats Ravens Niners Falcons Pats Niners Pats I'd love to see any team not named the Patriots win the Super Bowl this year; I just don't see how that can happen.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 10:21 AM) Do you always enjoy the influx of "leaf turners" and "new years resolution" people that fill up the gym this time of year? They'll be gone in a month. And you're right...it IS addicting, because your body craves that feel, and the chemicals it produces naturally...it's intoxicating in a different kind of way. The only times I stop going to the gym/working out are when I'm physically unable to do so...which can happen. I feel for those people, especially those that are always like that...but most people don't have that excuse. Yeah, the resolutioners suck ass, but they are already starting to trickle out - I don't see nearly as many because I work out before work, and the resolutioners almost never get their asses up that early! And yeah, obviously anyone with an injury who is incapable of working out, I feel for... I had a brutal knee injury early to mid 2012 and it was a disaster. I still found ways to work out and introduced myself to a lot of knew lifting techniques and ideas. But man, injuries suck balls.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 10:15 AM) Exactly. Same for people with the, "I can't afford a gym membership", excuse, which I can understand...but that doesn't mean you shouldn't work out. Seems for most people that if they can't get to a gym for whatever the reason may be, it means they don't have to work out...and it's not their fault! You don't NEED a gym to work out. You don't need weights to work out. You don't need anything to work out other than the physical ability to do so. Just do 20 minutes a day...hell, do 20 minutes 3 days a week...but do SOMETHING. The same people, if they do get a gym membership, just pay for it monthly and never go. I'd love to see statistics on the amount of gym memberships that go unused. People are just lazy. What's funny, is once you get past that hurdle of starting to work out, for like a week or two, it becomes so addicting that you never stop.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 09:28 AM) It would be impossible for me to say your argument doesn't have some degree of weight behind it. So, I agree to a point. But more than the unhealthy/cheaper choices, I personally believe that more so than any other factor, is people tend to ignore the new reality in which they live. People exercise less than then they once did, as their jobs, and even daily life REQUIRED more exercise. Things as simple as washing dishes has become an automated process with dishwashers. Even kids...smart, educated kids from educated families...they watch too much TV, and play too many video games because the parents are too busy trying to hold down 56 jobs so they can own 2 houses, 4 cars, take fancy vacations, etc, etc...everyone has time to f*** and have kids...but it seems nobody has time to raise them themselves. As for things like making sure sure they do things like exercise...meh, who has time for that? Because, you know, the little amount of time most modern parents spend with their kids, the TV acts their new "baby sitter", because who the f*** has time for that s***? To me, it's excuse after excuse. Take me for example...I'd LOVVEEEE it if my wife worked...as my job alone gets us by, if she had money coming in it'd be PURE cream off the top...we'd have the money for all this extravagant stuff that we don't really need. Sure, our daughter (and the second one on the way) would suffer, but we'd have all that extra stuff people worry about. How about no thanks. How about we raise the kids we decided to have so long as we can afford to NOT sacrifice them in the name of extra spending money. WE chose to have them. WE will raise them. Not some nanny, not their grandparents...US. And right now, that means we don't get to take extravagant island vacations. I took them camping 3 times last summer, once to South Dakota, once to Northern Wisconsin and once to Southern IL. That was our vacation time. Yes, sleeping in tents, not hotels. Also, I have no netflix, and only basic cable...because we cannot afford a 200+$ cable bill every month, unless of course she went to work...then we can have all that extra crap. The reality is, we've become a society of wanting our cake and eating it too. We want to sit in an office all day instead of being a laborer, but we don't want to exercise. We want kids...but who the f*** has time to actually raise them? It's much easier to just blame someone, such as the government, than actually doing something about it DESPITE living in a country where you actually CAN do something about it...like exercising, or living with a little less to stay within your means. It's amazing how you make sense sometimes.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 08:53 AM) We're the fattest because we can be. You'd rather hear excuses in our excuse laden society, because it's an easier route to take. But it's all choice...and the choice the majority of us make is to not care/be lazy/blame someone or something else. It's NOT because of our food supply, considering the choices that exist in our food supply, which are nearly endless. It's because we eat WAY more than necessary, but never burn it off because we'd rather sit around and watch TV. First world problems. I have an idea, get off your lazy asses and work out...society has changed, and office jobs are a new reality...if you sit around all day long at a desk -- like most of us do -- then you need to supplement working out into your life. Period. Unlike the generations of industrial workers before us, we don't put on hard hats and get 8 hours of exercise just by doing our back breaking jobs all day long. And we're back to my points from page 1 - very good post. People are lazy and make excuses. Losing weight is so f***ing easy, you just have to put down the fried chicken and get your ass to the gym for an hour a day. (or put down the cake, or the mcd's and jog in place at your home or go up and down some steps or go for a run out side or do pushups). There's so many ways to exercise; the excuses are just for the fat and lazy.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 14, 2013 -> 09:39 AM) That's like a radio app more than a podcast app. Other than the fact that it works perfectly with podcasts? It just does both, but it's neither more one than the other, and it's the best podcast app out there in my opinion.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 13, 2013 -> 11:16 AM) Best app for podcasts on Android? Stitcher

The Genie whole-home DVR is amazing.

Zero Dark Thirty was really, really good and really intense for a movie where you already know the ending!

The Bulls own the Knicks.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 11, 2013 -> 09:36 AM) Make sure you call comcast and tell them about that pricing though. My bill just went from 235 to 145 in one call. I got tired of that game. I enjoy DirecTV's upfront and cheaper pricing.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 11, 2013 -> 10:05 AM) Life of Pi is the type of oscar favorite that makes people hate the oscars. ha! And Les Miserables will win the Golden Globe Award and that's why people hate that.

I made the switch to DirecTV. They come to install between 12-4 on Sunday. I'm keeping Comcast for internet, though. The Genie whole-home DVR lured me in (that and saving $600 in 2013 and $200 in 2014).

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 10, 2013 -> 04:08 PM) Agreed. Is there such thing as a bad episode? That show is so consistently entertaining. Yeah - that first episode of the season was just chock full of entertainment.
