  1. Big trade going down, Bogut to GS and Ellis to MIL... Adam Schefter broke it too. lol.
  2. It was a great trade, Greg Olsen is easily worth half a Brandon Marshall.
  3. If they choked with that team... I would thank my lucky Tebows.
  4. http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/sports/Dwight...-142354445.html And the one thing we knew was coming finally comes.
  5. Mario Williams would be a godsend. What a response to the passing offenses in the NFC North. OL isn't that bad and we can draft a WR. Here's hoping.
  6. He treated POW's really well, but Nazi Germany in general treated Western POW's very well and all Rommel fought was the Western Allies. That's about it, other than that he was about par for the Nazi course. He loved fascism and didn't raise any real qualms with the whole slaughtering and dehumanizing Jews thing until after it became clear the Allies had it in the bag. The only reason people like to claim he was "The Good Nazi" is because he was pretty much a goddamned military genius, and taking the brightest minds in Nazi Germany and making it seem like they never bought into Hitler fuels the NEVER AGAIN script we've all heard way too much.
  7. Luck busts Manning wins another Super Bowl with the Not-Colts RGIII has a terrific career. You heard it here, folks. Too good of a story to pass up.
  8. A long shot, but did anyone get the Victoria II expansion (A House Divided)? I'm struggling with it, cant seem to even form Grossdeutschland as Prussia and all the little micro-German states arent the stoppers they used to be as allies. Austira is kicking my ass. Hoping someone has found some tricks.
  9. Redskins going all in, I like it. We gave up 2 first rounders for a QB and it worked out pretty well, even if Jay Cutler at least showed he could play in the pros.
  10. So this Gasol trade is either: Lowry, Martin and Scola from Houston for Pau. OR Steph Curry, Wright, Biedrins and Lee from the Warriors for Artest, Pau and picks.
  11. You mean engineer, conductors dont operate the train they coordinate crew and passengers. I'm guessing the MTA doesnt even have them anymore. Just sayin'
  12. American pilots have a harder time avoiding bombing Pensacola from Eglin than they would getting through Syrian air defenses. We could bomb them with impunity if we wanted to, get a grip guys.
  13. There was nobody on his side of the court for one of them. Half the Orlando team was on the ground writhing in pain, what does he do? Brick.
  14. Korver had 6 wide open 3 pointers and missed them all. ALL OF THEM. Pathetic. He should feel bad.
  15. People arent kidding when they talk about the Magic's reliance on the 3 pointer.
  16. What's missing: How successful isolation plays are in crunch time. Something tells me that # did not fit the argument.
  17. I'm actually a really active Sim City 4 player, I've downloaded a few thousand lots and mods and been playing regularly since SC4's release. I'm into the game, I love it. Its hard to tell where Maxis is going with this, obviously it isn't going to be Sim City Societies 2 (it was such a trainwreck, they'd be stupid to try something like that again) but at the same time not everything they've said is encouraging. Deeper levels of simulation are unlikely, more functional eye candy (huge airports and seaports built piecemeal, full implementation of the HSR and NAM mods) is probably going to be a mixed bag and they are not going to include anywhere near the current amount of lots available for SC4 on the fansite exchanges in their tilesets. BUT It will be moddable, which is a huge +. What really matters is how well the make the game to not be repulsive to serious players visually and allow us to incorporate the mods into the structure of the game. Transportation is where they failed miserably in SC4, the community made it tolerable, but we never got that full experience. All Maxis needs to do is give the foundation for a deep and realistic city sim, the community will gladly do the rest.
  18. It really depends how much I like/dislike the person's house/bar I'm at.
  19. Yeah that post was brought to you by prescription painkillers. If the ER saw this they'd never let me near the stuff.
