Notre Dame has been really surprising this year. They always seem to compete for the conference with barely above average talent.

What movies did you see - made in 2016 - that you wish that you hadn't?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 4, 2017 -> 06:37 PM) 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) I can see all of those except I really can't see Oakland winning without Carr.

So, if you are in Bismarck anytime in the near future, come find me. We serve good food. Also, unlike most promotions, I'm much less scared about this. I'm much more scared of more f***ing snow. Do you ever take photos of your creations for Facebook? You should.

In your considered opinions, what were the five worst movies released in the last five years? 2012-2016

I really hope that they draft DeShone Kizer. He's got fire, determination, and NFL level skill. Even with the mess that ND was this year, he still had really good results at the position.

Jordan Howard was pretty amazing this year. Only 12 games full time and he ended up just 300 yards short of Elliott.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 2, 2017 -> 01:33 AM) What was likable about Suicide Squad? I enjoyed the characters, the fighting scenes - even the Joker. The setups for Justice League were enjoyable as well.

Suicide Squad was pretty good. I didn't hate it like some do.

I was disappointed that they didn't flesh out Forrest Whittaker's character more.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 29, 2016 -> 12:36 PM) I'm sure you said the same thing about pharmacists who refused to sell birth control. Or bakeries that refused to make cakes for gay people.

LaVell Edwards passed away today. His BYU teams were championship caliber. Jim McMahon and Steve Young were two of his best guys.

Sing was a good kids movie. Plenty of pop songs, old and new - good actors. It's worth a watch if you have kids between 7 and 12.

http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CH...200605220.shtml May 22, 2006 Frank Thomas' first game back as an Oakland Athletic. Two home runs off of Garland; the first one, we gave him a standing ovation, the second we booed him. It also had a two-out, walk-off bunt by Pablo Ozuna and a squirrel delay.

George Michael, 53.

Does this German bank debt cause any issues for Trump?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 22, 2016 -> 04:14 PM) Keep Abreu around to DH and back up first. In two years, Machado becomes a FA and the Sox would only have Abreu and Rodon to pay. Machado will want ARod money - and he could get it.
