2023-24 NFL Season Thread
The idea that because Williams shows emotion and paints his nails so he can't be a top notch NFL QB is such a trope. I almost want him to succeed just to feed it to the manly men tropers.

**Water-Cooler Thread (TV stuff)**
I literally have no idea what his real name, but I know I have seen him in bit parts in a million different things all at the same time. It reminds me of Paul Giamatti until he hit it big with Billions.

**Water-Cooler Thread (TV stuff)**
Just to throw in some names to this thread of things I have caught over the last year or so, and maybe revive it, since we are all watching more regular stuff and less baseball... -End of Us was solid. Not as great as some of the type, but I did enjoy the story telling and the lead characters. I get it is end of the world stuff, but the Zombie scenes really take away from it. Like a 4 out of 5 for me. -The Crown was spectacular. I love how it effortlessly moved between the various eras. I think if I could have gotten more from it, I wasn't thrilled with where and how they ended it. Almost all of the casting was perfect, though Michael Hall as JFK was laughably bad. -Ted Lasso. Finally got AppleTV on a preview so binging what is on here, and Just into season 3, and this one lives up to the hype. While the main characters are great, it is the side characters that do it for me. -Franklin on AppleTV has also been really good. Can't wait to see how they end it. Very authentic feeling. Honestly it reminds me a lot of what the early dramas on history channel were like, but now they are so watered down and generic they aren't that good. -Star Wars series on Dis+- Caught up on Bad Batch, and now binging Clone Wars. These are great additions to the movies. Love them. -Brookyln 99- Definitely fund and mindless entertainment -Peaky Blinders- Spectacular series. Great characters, and storytelling. Worthy of a Godfather type storytelling comp. -House of Cards was pretty disappointing. Had its moments, but went too far to be edgy and it just didn't feel very realistic most of the time. -Cunk on Earth was one of the funniest takes on history I have seen. Granted it is absurd and you can't watch it with any semblance of serious, but it is worth a watch.

This was a great series. The guys who played Booth and Stanton were outstanding.

2024 Catch-All Thread
Way too many people cruise the middle lane when they should be in the right lane and out of the way.

What makes you the authority on the entire fan base anymore than someone else, after all this started with YOUR claim. Besides we could always poll the two ideas and see the responses.

TRUE White Sox fans are sick of the things causing the losses WAY more than they are the rest of it.

I like how at one point you talk about these so-called "facts" you like to post, and then this is how you respond. And yes, Chris Getz is ruining my favorite baseball franchise, and I consider that really bad.- Sox vs. Twins @ 110CT

If guys like Sosa don't get the chance to play through failure, they will never will succeed at the major league level. If guys like Sosa and Colas aren't mentally ready for the majors in a basic sense, maybe we should look at who oversaw the system when they were supposed to be learning how to be ready for the majors in terms of baseball IQ. If major league management can't teach these guys how to be major leaguers, maybe we should look at who is running the major league program. If a steady stream of minor leaguers isn't good enough to even serve as a potential pieces for the future, maybe we should look at the drafting and development people. You see how your excuses all have one common theme, right?- Sox trade Horn to Red Sox for $
Ugh. There isn't a problem with roster filler at the major league level. There is a problem with losing future guys to sign those guys. Stopping dropping prospects every couple of days to sign another shitty journeyman who you are going to cut in a week anyway for a season that literally doesn't matter. And yes, allowing some of those AAA guys more than an AB at the major league level is an OK thing, even if they aren't good for a while. - Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
