  1. the moment mcdermott and pegula won the room was when mccoy went off on trump, they held a team meeting, and management/coaches listened to the players, gave them freedom to express themselves, AND had their back.
  2. wow, drake really got his butt kicked
  3. i noticed this the whole game. it was irritating
  4. im still dumbfounded. i had a lot of faith in them taking care of business... but the way it went down in baltimore was perfect
  5. When I'm walking to games with my kid, I despise people stepping in our path asking if we 'have any tickets'.
  6. Yes, I have been to a few. I remember some sleazebags looking for tickets/selling tickets.
  7. its a hot subject. people often really boost the system they own and bash the other. i had xbox360 and converted to ps3 towards thr end of the gen. got a ps4 this round. they are very close tbh. if you want to play baseball go with ps4.
  8. We are going to build a dome with astro-turf
  9. Seattle is my favorite 'major' city. I realy liked Charlottesville, VA when I went there this fall.
  10. Can you tell me what direction they are taking it? To me, nothing seemed to really happen. New Order in a slow speed chase. Handful of rebels get away. No urgency because New Order doesn't give much reason to hate/fear them in this movie, especially without Snoke and now being run by a somewhat likable conflicted bad guy and a general who is used for slapstick comic relief. One dimensional characters remained one dimensional. The movie fatigued me on most of them. I really liked them at the time of the conclusion of TFA and was ready for the ride. This movie didn't take me anywhere. Didn't feel invested in the story. 2nd parts of a trilogy generally set the pins and end just before the climax of the trilogy, but there is nothing here, really. I feel disjointed from the story and really not looking forward to Episode IX as much as I would.
  11. He was the best.
  12. Pegula is right with the tone. This is a problem. It is most prevalent in NFL, but it is leaking into other leagues (NHL and MLB). The replay, as he said was installed to fix obvious on-field calls/errors. But now, it has morphed into taking an inventory of every millimeter, guessing players' intent, interpretations on what is a "catch", etc. It is a circus. NHL has broached this with the ridiculous and unnecessary 'offsides challenge'. MLB is really bad too when it comes to safe/out calls. People say 'why not get it right?". Situations like this and many others are the reason. These things damage the sport/viewing experience. If you cant figure it out in 5 minutes with 10 angles, then the officials call on the field should stand.
  13. marketing genius i went 2 two games yesterday. great hockey.
  14. no rivalry to me. completely different regions and their fans dont even care. kelly vs marino was good but mainly vecause buffalo and miami were annually #1 and 2 in the division with super bowl aspirations.
  15. I dunno. In baseball, losing contact with the bag often saves players from broken ankles and fingers/hands. The offsides thing in hockey is bad too. The reason the rule exists is so a player cant get a huge advantage getting over the line, past the defense and receive a pass. looking at it on a micro scale is silly, especially since usually several things happen between that and a goal. I dont have any problem with the linseman calling it in real time.
  16. He is 40+ and is as in shape as ever. He also seems to take as many/more hits than he ever did. No QB has ever had this type of career arc, and I would say no athlete ever has had this... especially in this era in sports where youth is king. The one telltale indicator in baseball was when guys were putting up stats and staying durable into their late 30s and 40s. It just does not pass the eye test, and I don't buy the 'aw shucks I drink a lot of water and eat kale' explanation.
  17. I agree with this. It is also trickling into other sports as well. The NHL is making a travesty out of itself with its offsides challenge. Now we are looking at 'did he have possession?' 'did his skate lose contact with the ice?' 'the letter of the rule states xxxxx, therefore they were offside'. We dont want guys breaking in 10 feet offside on a breakaway, but this is too much. MLB is getting bad too. The worst is when a player slides into a bag and might lose contact of the base by a millimeter for a fraction of a second and you can look frame by frame. I really dont need that, the guy is safe. My team will get some and lose some. I don't need for every call and every inch to be micro-analyzed. This, was one of the main reasons I dug the snow game so much. They just played and we couldnt dissect every inch.
  18. If anyone truly believes that Brady isn't on any form of PEDs, I have a bridge to sell you.
  19. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Get it?
  20. Gotta agree with Cincy and Panthers. Those 2 games were there for the taking. Jets game feels like a legit loss. The Jets have fought all season and came into that game with a lot of fire. Punched the Bills in the mouth and they didnt have a chance.
  21. IMO the officiating is quite good. When we scrutinize every inch and slow things down to the microsecond.... its impossible to look good 100% of the time. We saw what can happen with the replacement refs. We had bad calls, rules were misunderstood/not enforced correctly, and quite rapidly the fabric of the game was being torn. After about 4 weeks games were all devolving into numerous skirmishes, large scale arguments with the refs, etc.
  22. trumps gotta be behind this somewhere
  23. For me: Return-Jedi Empire Strikes New Hope Force Awakens Rogue One Sith Last Jedi Clones Phantom Menace
  24. I thought it was a pretty poor Star Wars movie to be honest. Im not that hard to please either, I think people are way too harsh on I-III. I think I still need to let it settle in. I didn't hate it, and really liked and enjoyed certain things. Lots I didn't like, some sloppiness/laziness in writing IMO. I really am not at a point where I'm in huge anticipation of IX.
