QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 01:41 PM) Survivor has possibly the greatest contestant ever this year. ...or the worst depending on how you want to look at it.

The 2005 World Series MVP.

Chicago White Sox. Seriously, the one year they throw the Series they get called the Black Sox. It's racist.

Congrats bro, you look great.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 01:16 AM) I love people who give up on shows that they like mid-season let alone mid run. If a show gets old give it a chance, because a lot of shows save themselves after they start dwindling. Entourage has been crap for the last season +, I've given it more than enough time.

QUOTE (Stocking @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 05:49 AM) f***ing tivo, only caught the first half. Anyone know where i can catch a rerun at? FX like 80 times this week. If you're saying so because you only got a half-hour and not the full-hour, it really wasn't an hour they had some stupid cartoon on. That episode rocked.

It's a no-brainer. Pick up the option.

Very nice to see a positive story in sports.

What is this? Sunny X-Mas Special Should be good.

Excited for Survivor, the NBC lineup, and of course Sunny tonight, but I have to respond to the Entourage statements. I've been watching this show since day 1. Last week's episode was it for me. I'm done, I'm out, it's crap.

Bowman to start over Vasher against the Steelers. Sign McAllister, cut Vasher. thx bye

TONIGHT! FINALLY!

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 04:06 PM) What the hell did Blockbuster do with the VHS tapes they had left over when stores permanently switched their inventory to discs? I can swear it was building for years, and I sat around thinking, "they're probably going to have a huge sale of vhs tapes for cheap," and when the moment arrived, all the tapes just disappeared. Who exactly could they sell the VHS tapes to that would be better than the consumer? Assholes. I was actually working during this transition. They were boxed up, shipped to corporate, and the disposed of.

Oh man... Mags for 18 mill next year? Ouch.

link As someone who worked at Blockbuster from age 18-22 as a CSR and Manager while taking care of college, I have a special spot for Blockbuster. As a kid who grew up in the nineties, Blockbuster will always have a place in my heart. However, the writing’s been on the wall for 5 years. They tried to be clever and add Blockbuster Online, but they went about things all wrong. I swear they should have paid me money and promoted me to president. Their downfall was the stupid “No Late Fees” which meant no one brought movies back forever. The heydey (2000-2002) was because you could walk into Blockbuster and the dvd rental turnover was so quick chances are the movie you wanted would be in... They should have cut the cost of renting all movies in the store and made them 1-day rentals (while also promoting their online product), and carrying less quantity so they had fewer to sell at $5 a pop previously viewed. The joy of going to the video store to pick out a flick would have been salvaged. No one wants to pay $24.99 to drive to Blockbuster 30 times a month when they can rent 3 out at a time online from Netflix or Blockbuster for half the price. Blockbuster needed to promote and covet the video store experience, but they never figured it out. As a kid, there was nothing cooler than going to rent the latest NES/SNES game or going to rent a movie. That WAS Friday night. So they turn all of the customers off by charging $11 for a week of a video game that chances are is going to suck. People rented to try things out, and when the prices got outrageous, it turned customers off completely. (At least, I know it did this one.)

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 06:59 PM) That outfield's going to be an adventure! You said it!

Alright boys, 2 days away, it's an hour long, and it will be hilarious. Leading up to Thursday night's insanity, let's all list our favorite episodes. For me, it's: "Bums: Making a Mess All Over the City" - the title storyline isn't even the best, as the parts where Dennis and Frank are cops and Charlie is Serpico are mad-classic. Later, b****es.

MNF Game 1 Regular broadcasters: Good MNF Game 2 Mike & Mike: f***ing awful ...and when Jaws disagreed with Gruden on what the other coach was going to do, Jaws was right 90% of the time.
