Matt Hasselbeck on QB “intangibles” and Josh...
Mark80 replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Or, perhaps it is just possible that the rest of us are seeing the big picture and how he has played at an MVP level for every game this season that he wasn't wearing a shoulder brace because he was playing through a dislocated shoulder for us (and we still went 2-2 in those games). -
I would go back to a similar style of programming they did when they were at their peak. 1. Less Talk Shows - there used to be basically only one talk show, Up Close. That was it. The weekends also had the Sports Reporters. Now, they are running talk shows all day on multiple networks. They all need their own sets, own on air and off air staff, and all the other expenses that come from doing a show....and they are mostly terrible. Just put the 2am SportsCenter on Repeat on the morning. Save a ton and be better programming. 2. On the note of SportsCenter - More freakin highlights. They used to play highlights of basically every game in every major sport. At a minimum they would show the score. Now, they talk about the same 1 or 2 teams per sport every f'n day all f'n year long. I want to see action, not the same crap day after day after day. Highlights, Stats, next game, highlights stats, next game, etc. Maybe a few player / coach interviews thrown in there. Get rid of the freaking pundits talking for 75% of the show. 3. More weird sports - Why cant they show some of the more obscure sports in the mid-afternoon? How much would it really cost to show it? Strongman, lumberjack games, scotland games, ping pong, badmitton, so much out there and there are amazing athletes doing stuff we never see. 4. Get out of politics. Enough already. I am there for sports and sports alone. 5. Stop force feeding me the WNBA and NCAAW. They are terrible, no one cares, it is so freaking boring. You give me these highlights but I can't get an NHL game, or F1 coverage, or decent soccer coverage???

He would be interesting...but I think they go much more conservative route than Austin.

I don't know about that. I don't think Jeopardy James would do well as a host. He's kind of weird and annoying. I believe they have been grooming Jennings as well. His personality is a much better fit and he has been showcased on the show over the years the most (including this seasons GOAT themed stuff). RIP Alex, you will be dearly missed by millions.

Final Vote—All States, Progress in counting
Mark80 replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The courts are going to be looking at the constitutionality of adjusting voting rules for the pandemic. That's the issue. It has nothing to do with fraud (which has NEVER proven to be a significant issue. EVER. And is not now either). Love clueless posters who just spew miss-information so convincingly. Oh...but there is a video of it on twitter....Yeah, seems like a legit source of truth. And even if, it would take 10s of thousands of fraudulent votes to swing anything. A grand scheme of it, that is. Not a few twitter videos that may or may not be real. -

Now at -400 for Biden. They won't miss that big, this late. -

Score a TD to go up by 7......that's a 2 point conversion
Mark80 replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The chances of converting the 2-pt conversion is much less than the chances of converting PAT to tie it. Since the 2pt conversion rate league wide is slightly below 50%, it makes more sense for us to kick the PAT and go up 8 since it would be less than a 50% chance we would convert (on average league wide) and also a less than 50% change they would convert to tie if they were down 8. Earlier in the game it could be argued to always go for 2pts since the expected points per attempt on average are slightly higher than that of PATs league wide. -
Tip #1 - Do not invest in EJ Manual cards. Trust me.

There will be MLB post-season games...
Mark80 replied to x-BillzeBubba's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Except the first round is only at the higher seeds home field, so the Blue Jays will be on the road for the all the first round games. -
And as I mentioned before regarding Roberts....absolutely zero worry that he is going to muff a punt.

Is anyone else less invested in this season than normal?
Mark80 replied to Cal's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Get off social media, stop watching the news. Trust me. If this stuff is affecting you this much then you should distance yourself from it. I stopped doing social media for the most part a couple years ago because of all the negativity. It has changed my attitude completely just by not seeing it all the time. And “news” media purposefully generates conflict to get higher ratings. Its proven to lead to higher rating and they take advantage of it. Anyway, im pumped for the season. Cant believe its only a week away. Once it is all of the sudden here, its gonna be just like any to me except this year i have higher hopes. -
Why is Marcel Dareus still a free agent?
Mark80 replied to Brennan Huff's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Because he is already rich and he is lazy and he loves smoking doobies. -

Earl Thomas On His Way Out Of Baltimore (Edit: now cut)
Mark80 replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Absolutely not at all what he did. He flipped off the organization. He didnt want to play without an extension and the security it offered. The organization refused. He decided to play anyway and he subsequently suffered a serious, season ending injury. Nothing at all to do with fans.
