OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

When Dr. Z says the Bears are the worst team in the NFL, it means they're going to the playoffs. When he says they're going to the playoffs but they'll get pantsed by the Panthers, it means they're going to teh Super Bowl and teh Panthers are gonna go f@#$ themselves with a splintered yard stick. When he says their draft is a bust it means some records are gonna tumble. When he says they didn't fill any needs it means Greg Olsen is Todd Heap. If he ever picks them to win the Super Bowl, then al Qaeda is finished.

Actually, Olsen is Jay Novacek. Good downfield TE who can't block.

I can live with that.

Does that mean Rex is Troy Aikman?

that's the problem. He ain't.

He's not so concussed that he defends Michael Irvin?  Or needs depends?

That's good, right?

Analyzing the draft at the moment it happens has to be the stupidest job in all of sports. 



Yep.  And yet some people still get worked up over the grades.

So?

So what?  What are you getting at?

At what are YOU getting?

Oh, I got what I was getting at.

I didn't even feel it this time.  Sneaky, churly bastard.

Yes, it's very small.  But, what it lacks in size, it makes up in sharptitude.

Wait.  What are we talking about?

A TO touchdown celebration?

I too am looking forward to another season of killing time and having a good laugh during Desipio Gamecasts.  Discovering this site was by far the best thing that I ever did while working in Harrisburg, PA.

Things I'm hoping for today:

1. Alex Gonzalez hit with a 98mph Big Z fastball.

2. D Lee and A Ram tear the cover off the ball.
3. Promiscuous use of the phrase 'female doges.'

It's opening day, and I have hope... again.  It's a good feeling.


Wait, that's not TEH Alex Gonzalez is it? It's teh other one right?

All present and future Alex Gonzalez/s-es should pay for the sins of teh Alex Gonzales.

Fixed for alternative spellings.

See the edit--I meant to put that in there the first time... and posted it simultaneously with you.  But point well taken.

Is the Phil Rogers' time machine anything like the George Michael (the unghey one) Sports Machine?  Because, if so, I want to climb aboard right now!

Not me.  I learned my lesson from climbing aboard the Great Space Coaster when I was a wii lad.  I ended up with Shamrock shake all over my shoes.

Better than in your mouth... those things are disgusting.

I'm at home... on dial-up... so sorry if I'm a few days late and bring this back on topic...  I also only read the first two pages b/c of the shity connection.

Favorite beer ever: Delerium Nocturnems (Tremens is good, but Nocturnems is darker... and thus better)
Favorite from a US brewery: Three Philosophers (Omegang, Cooperstown NY - a black cherry lambic, 26 oz, 9.8%, they have it at the sweet ass shop on Illinois or Water, a block or two from Navy Pier after you go under Michigan)

A few other that I really like:

Edmund Fitzgerald Porter (Great Lakes Brewery, Cleveland Ohio)
Anything from Unibroue (Quebec, somewhere)
Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA
Just about anything Leinenkugel's...  Doppel Bock is my favorite in the winter, and the Honey/Berry combo in the summer
Ditto for Goose Island, though the Demolition is particularly good
And of course, Chimay Grand Reserve.

I look for high APV and taste.  I think my favorite bar thus far has been the Clark St. Ale House - $4 pints of good micros.  I want to go to the Goose Island Brewery sometime this winter.

What I want for Christmas:

1. Bears Super Bowl
2. To not have to stop at 1908 (by the time I get there) and outdo KD's 2006 by one.
3. More Cardinals' pitchers on the DL at the All-Star Break than Cubs pitchers.
4. Penguins to keep January, February and March interesting.
5. Rangers to miss the playoffs.  (Sorry Fork).
6. A nice summer job so I can buy a next-gen system.
7. Better luck at the blackjack table.  I went on Christmas Eve with my cousins and saw 2-6 in at least 2/3 of my hands.  And I saw three 20's get wiped to dealer BJ's...  I've now gone from pissed to depressed.  But rationalize it all by telling myself that I'm a Cubs fan and that's what happens to us.
8. A scoring title for Crosby.
9. Everyone to realize that just because Jesus was an immaculate conception that Mary still could have had sex.
10. A big fucking steak.

Merry Christmas.

Over/under on one member of the group being straight: 1.  I'm taking the under.

With that said, some pretty cool coordination and an innovative idea.

Back to the music videos...  here's one that's the most irrationally paired video/song ever.  This may make less sense than Separate Ways.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z025bcKYJ7s

Check the ninjas at the 1:07 mark or so.

And on the game show topic...  I'm going to try and find the Family Feud lightning round where not one, but both people had this response to "Name a state that begins with the letter 'M.'"

Person one: Mexico - I just shake my head.

Person two: Mexicol - Buzz, buzz, try again.  I just stared at the TV with my jaw dropped, almost Victor Diaz jaw drop, but not quite.

Yeah, so I know that Bill Simmons mentioned this in one of his "columns", but it bears repeating that this could be the most puzzling video of all time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwGdXZ6o2xs&search=separate%20ways%20journey

After watching it, I've tried to figure out what is the most puzzling aspect of the video...

- That Steve Perry tries to look buff
- That the girls skirt is that long
- That when the chic leaves, it's two guys staring across at each other
- That the tiny square bass guitar could emit any sort of guitar-like sound
- The ending

Thoughts?

And my contribution to further the thread... Rush at their most pretentious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tCUeAAK9fg&mode=related&search=Rush%20Big%20Money

Or the best promo Masked Kane ever did:

I can't believe that I forgot about that...  I was always a big fan of when Kane was teaming with XPac and used the voice mod to say "Suck It."

Or when he set JR on fire.  "My Gawd King, what kind of man sets another man on fire?"

Didn't Jericho introduce the term "assclown" to our society, or am I mistaken?

I think it was Office Space - Michael Bolton "who, that no-talent assclown?"

But Jericho certainly helped.

And since someone mentioned The Big Show in an over the top bit, I couldn't help but think of when he was feuding with Kurt Angle (who has been the best all-around in terms of promos, entertainment and matches this decade, and often one of WWF's few bright spots) and Big Show was handing out condoms or something, and Angle did an Angle for Abstinence shtick.  Priceless.
