  1. I don't get the big deal. It's clearly an homage to Thomas Jefferson.
  2. It should be noted that the "but pink is a WOMAN'S color" argument is bunkum. The whole thing is based on some inane (and plastic) social construct. In fact, it used to be that pink was considered a masculine color not 70 years ago. Some 70 years from now, it will probably change again just because people are weird like that.
  3. Could be. Occam's Razor, in my opinion, is that Tyrus pinched it from Jesse's locker. Gus may have taken a shine to Jesse, but when you start trying to dictate who Gus can or cannot kill, you need to be shown your place. Btw, maybe it's my Mexican blood but does anybody else think that Jesse's girlfriend is like 20 different kinds of hot?
  4. "The pink hurts my eyes and football players aren't manly enough." Somebody better call the wahmbulance.
  5. I agree. To paraphrase from the movie, Beane was the man to break down the wall. Almost a decade later, every team in the Major Leagues has their own advanced analytics department so the advantage no longer exists. Interestingly enough, the current low budget team having the most success is Tampa Bay and their offense is actually pretty shoddy by sabermetrics standards. Their highest OPS is Longoria at .850 which is solid but unspectacular for the superstar he's presumed to be. They do, however, have excellent pitching and defense by any standard.
  6. Wasnt the ricin in a small glass container inside the cigarette, though? So just smoking the cig wouldn't have done anything...
  7. Just an unbiased prediction, brother.
  8. Coming up in about 10 mins.
  9. We'll see. Sideline or not, it takes a couple missed tackles and one big block to spring one. It's a low risk maneuver, but I'd still estimate that expected value dictates it happens once. But don't get me wrong...the average gain of kicking high to the corner outweighs the average loss.
  10. This game will be tougher than we think, so just to be Devil's Advocate Bengals 20 Bills 17 I'll come back and if I'm wrong. Go Bills!!!
  11. I'm glad somebody else realizes how good Lindell has been this season. You're right about the cost of doing business...at least once this season he'll kick it OB and at least once there will be a breakdown and the other team will break off a huge return, possibly for 6 points. Every other team seems to be acquiescing to the new 35-yard line rule and just blasting the ball out of the end zone. The Bills are the first team to adapt and try to use the rule to their advantage, for which I give tons of credit.
  12. These !@#$ing losers would turn the ball over, wouldn't they?
  13. I usually root for the bad guy in movies, since most of them are so annoyingly formulaic. I'm still sore that Wile E Coyote never caught that goddamn piss ant Roadrunner.
  14. Ha! I missed that the first time.
  15. If this is truly indicative of a real Wonderlic test, I weep for the stupidity of the average NFL player.
  16. Lord knows the wife does!
  17. I like how deferring allows you to strategize at the end of the first half.

  19. "Page not Found" If you're a review writer, my friend I just started up this website...shoot me a PM if you're interested in writing. http://www.entertainment-bureau.com/
  20. Losses will come this season. It's more than likely that the Bills will lose 2 or 3 in a row at some point. The issue is going to be how well they bounce back.
  21. Thanks for the tip. It's definitely best to write in such a way as to not build a barrier between yourself and the audience, so I see where you're coming from with the formality. I do watch Parks and Rec (better than it's sister show The Office, in my opinion). However, I invented the name Entertainment Bureau about 2 weeks before the Entertainment 720 episode, as I recall.
