    Boxing died due to ufc, which is WAY more violent than boxing itself. As long as the NFL is a huge cash cow, it will never go away. While CTE will probably always be a part of football, technology is always improving and helmets and treatment can always get better without destroying the NFL product 

     

    The problem is that no amount of technology will keep the brain from impacting the inside of the skull. Treatment and diagnosis while living are the steps that the NFL needs to be working towards.

  2. I still don't fully understand. Like it's worn in already as opposed to stiff?

     

    Kinda yeah. I'm no hat expert, but structured hats have a firm..... structure on the front panel. Like if you set it down on a table the front would look the same as if it's on your head and would maintain its shape. Unstructured is more like a thick shirt kind of feel. I feel like I'm not explaining this very well and it should be a lot simpler than I'm making it sound, lol.

  3. not to be a dick. But that sounds incredibly false. Maybe the driver of the S4 didn't know how to shift properly. I would love to know how your coming up with over 100hp for just a few hundred bucks. If you said you added a turbo or SC I'd believe it.

     

    He didn't say over 100. He said about 50. But just a software upgrade got me about 40-45 hp and 90 lbs of torque for ~$600 in my 07 2.0T A4.

  4. Each season doesn't take a full year. The Breaking Bad timeline started w/ Walt getting his 50th birthday breakfast & ended w/ him having his 51st one.

     

    I'd thought it was 2002 for the start of this one but did hear Howard say the '66 was 35 yo. No way its taken 2 years to get from season 1 episode 1 to last night's episode so really doubt it started in '99 (except in flashbacks to Chicago which were likely earlier than that).

     

    Interesting to see that Lydia & Gus were working together back then.

     

    And it looks like Gus/Mike have a year to convince Jimmy to stay Saul when he'svallowed to practice again.

     

    Slow episode but set up a lot of stuff to happen moving forward.

     

    Wonder if Gale will show up to doctor Hector's pill & put him in the wheel chair?

     

    Just to clarify, it was a 52 Walt made with his bacon in the diner, so that would make the BB timeline 2 years.

     

    The consensus I've gathered is we are in 2001 right now in BCS.

  5. God, I loved MST3K! My favorite was The Lost World. The move they did (This Island Earth) was also great.I take it old episodes are available on Netflix? I have a bunch of the DVD's. If new episodes are coming to Netflix, I'm in.

     

    Yep, they just put 20 episodes on Netflix a few days ago. Not sure when the new Season is out but it'll be on Netflix.

  6. I have thought about my list too much since posting it and have decided that I need to post my second list. There's too many good shows I didn't mention.

     

    I'll consider it a top 10 in no particular order.

     

    Master of None

    Flaked

    -those two only have one season currently out so things could change there

    Chef's Table (including the France one)

    Impractical Jokers

    South Park

     

    On the British show talk, I agree with row_33. I find it hard to understand what is being said a lot of the times. I find the premise of the shows that others have mentioned interesting but cannot understand enough of what is being said to get into the show. I'll keep trying to watch them though.

     

    Chappelle's Show and Key and Peele deserve to be on the list too. OK, I'm done now. Maybe.

  7. Favorite office character? Stanley and Joyce do it for me. Always have a real life Stanley and Joyce in any large company

     

    Ron Swanson the god.

     

    Man that's so hard to pick. I'm unreasonably in love with Pam but Jim and Dwight make the show IMO. Michael is a legendary character but the interactions and relationship between Dwight and Jim was absolute perfection in my eyes.
