at least an Oreo donut makes me feel better about staying up to watch the game last night
September 24th, 2012 at 8:43 AM
I’m getting a very 1980 feel from this team. Strong offense, zilch defense. Dick Nolan must be spinning in his grave.

I had one of these about a week ago. Not good. So bad that I suspect it was leftover from the day before.

Very funny movie. The only letdown is naked John Cleese but no naked Jamie Lee Curtis.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:48 AM
Am I the only one who thinks Mad Men has gotten a bit stale, and even (sorry to say) boring? It certainly started out strong, but the last couple of seasons don’t really hold up to the first couple. IMO, for current series, Breaking Bad has generally been pretty solid throughout and so has Game of Thrones, never miss an episode of either. Lately though it I miss a Mad Men episode, I’m like, meh…
September 24th, 2012 at 8:48 AM

I would vote Walker #1 without question. Hamilton 2, and Allen 3.

All the cool moms-to-be eschew caffeine, for the sake of the fetus.
P.S. how do I set a google alert for when queefer Sutherland comes in here and complains that the bad officiating almost cost the ravens another game, while ignoring the part about how the bad officiating helped the ravens win that game?

Also, I’m already girding myself for next year’s Emmys, when Breaking Bad gets fucked over yet again for Best Drama Series in its final season.
But maybe Jonathan Banks will win Best Supporting Actor to make up for it a little.

White and British? Probably not.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
He’s nothing if not predictable. Ravens fans chanting Bullshit was THE definition of irony, though. Especially on the play they were mad about.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
An award show? You guys are complaining about a TV award show? I mean, I expect Coop to complain after the Tony’s but I’m a little disappointed in you folks.

Why would Dick Nolan care about the Steelers?
/oh, sorry, you’re talking about the Saints. You can see why I was confused, though.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
last season wasn’t as good, as a whole, as previous ones.
well, this was season 4 that was up for it, first half of season 5 will be next year, and the final, final season will be up for an emmy 2 years from now.
It’s entirely possible they give them an emmy for best drama at that point once it all plays out.
i like damien lewis and homeland, but nothing tops bryan cranston in season 4 of breaking bad.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:57 AM
All that’s missing is a “We may have been outscored in the first half, but we won that second half!” quote after a 44-17 blowout.
If this were a phpBB scripted forum, we’d have an “ignore” feature. That’d be handy.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:58 AM
I’ll hand it to Ravens fans, that was as loud, clear and concise a “bull-shit” chant as you’ll ever hear. Good job by you guys
September 24th, 2012 at 8:59 AM
Silver lining of scab ref fiasco: Al Michaels laughing at some of these calls while Collinsworth incredulously tries to explain what happened. They’re the greatest.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:00 AM
Speaking of which, damn they were loud all night. If that’s what it takes to sway these refs, the Gillette crowd doesnt have a prayer.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:00 AM
All of this. Justified is just plain great.
Heidi Klum…you’re trying too hard.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:01 AM
Are we talking about best player just at UCONN before the NBA? Allen and Hamilton are definitely 1 and 1-a. I’d put Kemba Walker and Donyell Marshall as 2 and 2-b. Donyell was nasty his junior year.

This is true. Thought the show took a small step back last season. One of things that was truly good was less January Jones. I actually wanted to punch her character in the head in previous seasons.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:03 AM
that was a well coordinated chant, i must admit to that. i’m sure if the NFL could find a way to fine fans for verbally abusing the replacement refs they would do that, too.
i hope there’s a replacement ref post, the NBA is looking like it has more credibility than the NFL at this point.

Silver lining of scab ref fiasco: Al Michaels laughing at some of these calls while Collinsworth incredulously tries to explain what happened. They’re the greatest.
NBC has a well know liberal agenda, and it’s been pretty obvious that they’re pushing Michaels/Colllinsworth to stand with labor on this issue, and make a big deal out of absolutely everything. If they weren’t saying things, you wouldn’t even notice the replacement officials.

The Penguins of Madagascar. Best animated feature above Bob’s Burgers, Futurama, and American Dad. Saw that coming.
Also there’s no reason for Louie to be nominated as a comedy. Great show but not funny, should be a drama.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:06 AM
This is the last thing I will say on it. If you rewound the game like I did and went back to the Ravens TD drive in the 4th: a “holding” call on McCourty on Smith that Collinsworth was at a loss for words for that if not called would have been 3rd and more than 10 for the Ravens. Then a “holding” call on Spikes down at the goal line when Flacco got sacked, while bearing in mind that the Ravens LBs were TACKLING Gronk, and Al sat there and wondered why Gronk wasn’t catching passes. Then to top it off Smith stiff-arming McCourty before the ball even got to him on the TD catch, but I get the whole family-member death clause.

SoA is back to being good and doesn’t suck anymore? I might have to revisit it.

Speaking of the Emmys, what’s up with these pixie haircut? Ala Giinifer Goodwin
That haircut does nothing for her, except make her look 12 and have a big ears.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:07 AM
i think it really suffered from the protracted negotiations and delayed production before the season started. the show wasn’t stumbling around trying to find itself, but it was definitely missing what made it great previously.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
I was tempted, but I feared for my blood pressure. I’m already worried about how much these kinds of games are affecting my insides.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:09 AM
i was a fan of the PI call on Mayo 2 yards from the LOS on an uncatchable ball to the RB. That was pretty cool.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:12 AM
it’s not a great show, sometimes it’s a good show, but it’s a fun show. being that the story is about a motorcycle gang in the 1%, there’s a lot of disbelief that needs to be suspended when viewing.
music is great though.

sometimes it’s a good show
it hasn’t even been sometimes good since season 2. The show went off the rails, spinning its wheels, trying to still be “Hamlet” without actually being Hamlet. It refuses to move the principal storylines along at all, while constantly brutally murdering ancillary characters for shock value. Oh, and showing porn star butts on TV, like seeing a porn star butt is going to get that show’s fan base all tittillated.

Yes. It is recognized that the acting on that show is terrific. As to it being the best show, it was not better than Homeland. Season 4 of Breaking Bad was not better than Homeland, season 1, in terms of being a television show. You may have liked season 4 of breaking bad better, but you’re probably saying that without having seen Homeland.

September 24th, 2012 at 9:20 AM
The replacement refs are a story, no doubt, but not nearly the fiasco that folks wanna make it. Regular refs make tons of questionable calls every week as well, especially regarding holding and PI. Collinsworth and Michaels would never be so condescending towards a normal ref who botched a call.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:20 AM

September 24th, 2012 at 9:23 AM
It’s something to see the drama nominees and appreciate that TV is the goods these days, meanwhile Taken 2 will probably claim top honors at the box office
September 24th, 2012 at 9:24 AM
I’ve watched both, and Breaking Bad season 4 was indeed better than Homeland. Homeland should have ended after only one season, if you’ve seen that show than you know what I mean.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:25 AM
I’m almost sad that The Killing got cancelled. What show that you hate are you looking forward to this fall?
September 24th, 2012 at 9:25 AM
I’m enjoying the games that never end due to officials conferences that take forever plus all the additional reviews that are needed like in the Saints game following the Charles obvious non-fumble…they’re affecting the product

September 24th, 2012 at 9:27 AM
I completely agree but at least those refs have SOME sort of consistency. Even Al and Chris were saying they have to throw a flag early to get the pushing and shoving to settle down, then they threw one and Chris was like “I wouldn’t have thrown the flag there”. So no one entity is the be all and end all. But it seems these refs have no basis for throwing the flag, they operate by different thinking on each play. It is what it is, but I am not going to not point it out.

Patriots football, for one. I’ve already started Boardwalk, so I can hate Mrs. Schroeder, and how that show just goes nuts trying to keep that actress involved in the forefront.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:28 AM
‘beat’ might be an exaggeration.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:28 AM
both shows had great seasons, I think for different reasons. BB had an incredible luck of having Cranston, Esposito and Paul turn in their finest performances while having a great story and great editing.
However, Homeland had great acting from Danes and Lewis, a truly compelling storyline and fantastic editing up to the final minute.
Both shows had my heart pounding in the last few episodes of the season as they unfolded, but BB had me on the edge of my seat for 4-5 of the last episodes until the very end of the season while homeland had me in cold sweats in the finale up until the end of the bunker sequence.
so, picking either for best drama isn’t wrong
September 24th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
Aaron Paul’s performance / transformation of Jesse Pinkman from a reckless junkie into a moral compass juxtaposing just how bad Walter White has “broken bad” is understated as much as it is outstanding. Well done and well deserved.

September 24th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
I’m right with you there. Last season was such a disaster but I’ll be watching again this season. And fast forwarding through every single LaGuerta/Batista scene.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:30 AM
Credit where credit is due though, the scab who announced a penalty on the Rams and call them “St. Louie” while sounding like a character from Boardwalk Empire was a treasure
September 24th, 2012 at 9:31 AM
This. It was Shawn Draughn. Clearly obvious he was on the ground when the ball came out. Saints picked it up and ran back for a TD. The refs made no call and took forever to figure it out. Should’ve taken two minutes, tops.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:31 AM
The second season hasn’t even begun yet and the first one, while certainly could have been the end. Wasn’t….so….
also, lol @ Green Day. Loved them back in the day, but wow. Nothing like a band riling up people with political and faux punk garbage and then turning around and being an unrivaled corporate shill.

I am only just learning that the refs in the Detroit/Titans game walked off a 15 yard penalty from the wrong 44 in overtime.
/good times
September 24th, 2012 at 9:33 AM
the difference is the regular refs tend to call varying degrees of PI or holding, the replacement refs seem to call PI or holding by applying the wrong rules in the wrong situation.
even the ravens INT that was overturned due to holding, that was borderline at best within the first 5 yards of the LOS and i’m not sure the regular refs would have called that.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:33 AM
Everyone knew the one guy was a ghost and yet the show didn’t reveal it for another three episodes…that became a show I put on for white noise until the finale when in order to be a plot contrivance he had to completely go against how he killed everyone else on the show and do it where someone could be expected to find him

You don’t know who heard the whistles and didn’t block on the play…his bigger failing was settling for a 48-yard kick on grass by calling a run play on 3rd and 8, if you’re admitting you don’t trust Tannehill to that extent he shouldn’t be playing
September 24th, 2012 at 9:38 AM
I am only just learning that the refs in the Detroit/Titans game walked off a 15 yard penalty from the wrong 44 in overtime.
And that came after they reviewed a catch by Stevens that was indeed caught, they looked at replay and reveresed it to no catch. What’s worse, they gave them 27 yards for the helmet hit. A win-win
September 24th, 2012 at 9:38 AM
I didn’t even make it through the first episode before I gave up on that POS.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:38 AM
It appeared to go directly above the right upright. Camera angles sucked, but it appeared ok. The confusion came in when most of us only learned after the game that all field goals are reviewable EXCEPT for those where the ball goes directly over an upright.

The biggest failings of the replacements isn’t so much the “normal” calls, it’s mainly a) the game administration/management and b) the “abnormal” calls that are required to maintain order. For example, they have either missed or completely botched multiple personal fouls relative to defensive players, player conduct after the whistle, etc.

It really depends on what you’re looking for from the show. If the events of Season 5 were setting up cool things with Season 6, then I’m ok with it. In a vacuum, I can see where you’d feel it’d gotten stale.

This is true, wasnt so bummed about him calling the TO, especially since it got block. This is what coaches do, so he was in the norm for doing this. I believe Tannhill threw deep pass to Hartline when they got in NYJ territory. Carpenter should have made the FG. I think he’s starting to wane a little bit, he’s made game-winners before, but in the last couple of yrs, he has fallen short if i remember correctly.

I think MIA could have been definitely been 2-1, maybe 3-0 with some luck. Moore played well down the stretch last season, but then again the season was lost and he was winging w/o thinking too much. In pre-season this yr, he looked bad, as well as practice. He made a comment somewhere along that line that he plays better in game situations.
Now there might be some truth to that, but the team is committed to a young QB with potential. The INTs vs HOU were bad and the pick-6 eysterday sucked as well. Don’t think Moore would have given those up.

Miller picked Schaub up and slammed him to the turf the play before the ear rip play. Mays was the one who hit him on that one. He mostly slammed into his chest and shoulder but the impact and some contact with the helmet popped that thing off. If he had hit Schaub in the head with that force, Schaub would still not know where he is.

Quick recap – Jefferson was in favor of emancipation, so much so that he included it in his drafts of the Declaration of Independence. Then he goes silent on the issue. The silence comes about after he figures slaves, as an investment, earn 4% per year. An aside, one reason washington freed his slaves was the use of slaves as commodities.
