Going to see Gone Girl tonight. Watched American Psycho last night thinking it was the prequel to Bates Motel. Apparently just "Psycho" is the prequel. Anyway, what a weird, f***ed up movie. I can't say I liked it, because it never really had much of a point, but it was entertaining for sure.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 02:40 PM) I really want to see Baltimore advance, however, is there a reason that the idiot fans insist on scream-humming the bassline of Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes? There doesn't appear to be a specific in-game event that prompts it. Idiot Ravens fans also do this, I've noticed. I don't know, but the White Stripes are from Detroit, so that's actually pretty funny.

Oh my god, I can't stop laughing. That was hilarious. I love seeing Detroit constantly blow it. I almost can't believe this.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 01:00 AM) Any new shows you guys been watching? besides that Gotham show. Scorpion, Red Band Society, and the first episode of Black-ish I have watched and none that I love but none bad enough to stop watching. Black-ish was actually funny to me but I know a lot of people can't take the whole race thing the show does. I am thinking about checking out How to Get Away With Murder. It has some good reviews. Utopia and Gotham are the only new shows I've watched since like True Detective.

Some reporter(s) in STL saying that the Rams to LA is a done deal. Will be announced after the Super Bowl I guess. As a Rams fan, I'm not pleased. I don't want to be have to be someone who roots for an LA team. -
QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 2, 2014 -> 11:40 PM) they will probably send cash here is another thought I been thinking long and hard. yeah I know a whole 2 seconds. but does anyone think that a surprise addition and may be starting in the majors next yr may be Montas? I know he is young but really should that hold him back? I would hold him back simply for injury reasons. He only pitched 81 innings this year, I wouldn't add that mental stress to his possible physical stress as well. Start him off in AA next year and hope he can end in AAA.

I wonder when we get our PTBNL from the Gordon Beckham trade. Maybe it's contingent on how far the Angels go in the playoffs, or how much Beckham contributes.

Aoki is just a wizard. He never "looks good", but the results are always fantastic.

New Childish Gambino mixtape came out today....Oooof. Only heard the first 11 so far, but outside of the stupid DJ voiceovers, it's pretty great. I'm going to edit out all the talking and DJ screaming, and it will be great. http://stonemounta.in/kauai/ Just need to listen to the Kauai side now.

I thought The League was great again tonight. The hot tub part at the end was awful though, because my limited amount of knowledge on hot tubs still tells me that it is very unlikely that hottubs are connected to your house plumbing system, especially sewage... But the storyline with the thin pants was great, and the holding hands thing fit in well. I lost interest in the Taco/Mark Cuban thing. I assume he ruined the check before he ever cashed it?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 1, 2014 -> 01:26 PM) I haven't watched the finale yet, but so far I agree. I think the main issue is the B story lines are all pretty boring. And while I enjoy deep character dives, Masters comes off as a prick 100% of the time. I was never really sold on feeling sorry for him for his daddy issues, so this entire season never worked for me. Some flashbacks to his childhood might have helped, but simply being told he was abused by his father isn't enough to show how much that caused his adulthood issues. The amount of time spent on that this season was just way too much. At the same time, they've basically ignored Johnson's side of the story. The 2nd to last episode story line with her kids finally starts to bring that out a bit, but this entire season is basically her doing whatever Bill wants. The initial "i'm not being appreciated" plot line was nice, but we still don't really know who she is or what she wants in life, other than to f*** Masters in every possible way to make him happy. Although it's Game of Thrones For Women, Outlander's first half season was surprisingly good. The actress who plays Claire is hot and loves to get dirty. And the dude who played Brutus in HBO's Rome is pretty good in his duel role. It's a good watch with the wifey if anyone is looking for a new "epic" drama show. I enjoyed when we were learning about the different ways the body reacts and works during sex, not when we are spending 75% of the season figuring out what triggers will make Masters get an erection again. We get it, he has a sexual dysfunction. I didn't like the time jump in the story either, it seemed to have skipped some plot lines rather quickly. What ever happened to Barnum (was that his name?) and his wife? Or their daughter that the other doctor was dating? Or Pearl? I just think this season has been real boring so far and really Betsy Brandt and the their cameraman (can't remember his name right now) have been really the only 2 interesting characters so far this season. Mrs. Masters and the black movement has been alright, but every episode they feel the need to remind us that she is white and it's "not her place" to be fighting for them. We get it. They don't have to show an awkward standoff every episode to remind us.

This thread got me thinking. What's the hardest throwing Asian pitcher we've seen in the MLB? Is it Tanaka? I think he sits around 93-94? Seems like there has never been a flamethrower, at least that I can remember. They seem to teach finesse.

Yeah, for as much as it sucks losing a dog, or a pet in general I guess, not having one after having one your whole life is really s***ty as well. I think these last 5 months, and actually it's been EXACTLY 5 months now since our dog passed, may be the longest I've ever gone without a dog in my life. I was born w/ a dog in the family already. Whenever my brother comes over, he always brings his golden and I love having her over. She absolutely will not stop squealing with excitement when I say hi to her because she knows I will play with her all day if she wanted to. Very much looking forward to that stage of our new puppy once we get her house broken.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 30, 2014 -> 01:55 PM) All of this stuff is really tempering my enthusiasm for getting a pet. I'm getting emotional just reading about your pets I don't know if I can handle seeing one of my own go after losing my childhood pets Yeah, this thread has gotten a little dark, but don't worry, I'll do my part in posting pictures/videos of our new puppy in a couple weeks when we bring her home.

2014 Fantasy Football Thread

My team blows. 1-3 now. I finally had a really strong week from my trio of Romo/Dez/Terrance Williams, but Calvin Johnson and Vernon Davis "playing" really killed me. -
Conversely, Masters of Sex has had a bad sophomore season, IMO.
-
QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:48 PM) Great season for the show, as it has so many strong characters. Yeah, this season has been much better than S1. It's one of my favorite shows right now.

I don't care if Rodon pitches out of the rotation or the bullpen in his 1st year, but what I DO care about is that this occurs after Super Two has passes. I don't want to see him up until June, UNLESS Hahn adds some big pieces this offseason and the team could actually compete for a playoff spot next year.

It's about that time of the year again...

So I had a dream that Bickell was traded before the start of the season.
