  1. hmmm.... Excellent answers to both! Thank you! It does bother me that they are not busy all the time. When they showed the outside and nobody is around, it irked me. Thinning the herd, gardening, reinforcing, etc... whatever needs to be done! Another thing that bothers me is the burying of the dead. Everyone is infected. Yet they bury people and grow crops right near them. That could be the cause of the infection. I think the governor had the right idea in burning them all. I by no means am quitting the show. It is certainly interesting as I love the what would I/we do conversations between the wife and I. Her - "What would you do if I turned into a zombie" Me - "I'd shoot you in the head!!!" ahhh Married life
  2. You've already stated your opinion so this may fall on deaf ears but I think you are severely underestimating how good goalies are in soccer. Check out this video. With one step the keeper can cover the entire net in any direction. When striking from outside the box it is incredibly difficult to get it by them. That is why many of the goals are from very close range, making "bend it like" goals very impressive.
  3. After doing some quick googling it appears that I was wrong. Baseball averages about 8 runs per game. Soccer at the highest levels averages about 3. It is much more like Hockey in regards to the scoring level. However the ALCS averaged about 6 runs per game and the NLCS averaged about 5 runs per game (before the game 6 blow out skewed the stats to 6 runs a game). It isn't a huge difference IMO but seems to be the #1 complaint against the game.
  4. As stated 0-0 games are rare. That said baseball regularly (especially NL games) are regularly the same amount of scoring as soccer but nobody cares. If you are interested in giving soccer a chance you really need to go out and watch it with a group of people who are interested and informative. There are so many games within the games going on. If you picked a team to root for soccer is incredibly exciting. It is a back and forth, up and down, free flowing game. Watching just to watch any sport is generally boring if you don't care about the teams. Try to play it. See how incredibly difficult the things they are doing actually are. It may give you a better respect for the game and what is going on. Soccer is near and dear to me. I grew up playing, played in college, coached for a short while, and now ref for the high schools. It is a game that is VERY physical and physically demanding. Depending on your position it is not unheard of to run 6+ miles in one game. November 15th there is a US men's team game on. Watch it with a rooting interest and see how you feel afterwards.
  5. I actually was somewhat disappointed with the first episode. It was boring at points in time and I am starting to get irritated with their behavior. *Why in the world is it not multiple people's jobs all day long to just stand at the fence and kill the walkers? Honestly, they just let them stand against the fence and it almost cost them this episode. How many people are in the prison? What are they doing all day if they aren't being proactive? They could even be reinforcing the walls. Anything! *Nobody thought to check out the roof of the store? Or for that matter - what caused the roof to collapse? At a supercenter type store, the apocalypse happened at most a couple of years ago - the roof collapsed?! I do enjoy the show but I'm not impressed so far this season. The infection is an interesting angle. I believe it is the little girl feeding the walkers but who knows. I just hope it isn't another farm season because that was dreadful. So can you all please help me out with the 2 issues I raised?
  6. Buftex the bolded contradicts itself. We certainly could have put on foot on their throats by scoring there and then again to begin the second half. That is the exact reason teams like to defer the kickoff. Now the execution otoh... Just like going for it on 4th down last week. Whatever the outcome someone would be against the decision... I agree. Except you NEVER look at the positive. Everything from you is negative. Try being positive. Embrace Mario's exceptional 4th quarter, or Stevie's extra effort on that 3rd down play to extend our drive, or Fred and CJ gutting it out when they were clearly injured, or the team in general for continuing to put up 20 points a game, or Carpenter for continuing an excellent season, or the d standing up with 30 seconds after the special teams almost gave it away again. There are negatives. The defense is giving up 20 a game which needs to be corrected. Special teams is atrocious. There ARE 2 sides why don't you try being positive for once and tell me it doesn't feel good. Edit: I will self edit and say apparently you have had a couple of examples of being positive. Doesn't it feel much better? Change your name and embrace all of the good things that are going on with the Bills!
  7. So many pats* apologists ITT. That was illegal and it actually got called. I'm shocked he had the cojones to make that call. Kraft, belicheat, and goodell will be having words with him! ;-) Your true colors are showing :-p
  8. 3 man rush there was a terrible call... Tannehill struggled on 3rd when there was any kind of pressure.
  9. I'm in the stands... Is Byrd playing?
  10. Wasn't it a rib injury that sidelined Clowney?
  11. Without knowing how much he is helping out the other guy I would say no. Richardson hasn't performed this year or really at all. I don't get the te switch and would try to get a player he could use that woul help his team. It isn't overvaluing his guys it is getting someone he can use and get production from for his depth. I don't care much for Richardson. I love Thomas so as I said it may be worth making on those merits alone. To the op: What does his qb situation look like? Can you play a te in a flex?
  12. Both of these are correct. You really only need the guy for the your starters bye week so plan ahead and grab whoever has the best matchup. If you're asking who I like best, I agree with Johnny. Pryor because of the run/pass threat is who I've picke up in a couple of leagues.
  13. After this week that's what I'm doing. Moreno has a plus matchup this week against jax and is clearly the lead back. Jones is boom or bust but a more than adequate fill in at wr for bye weeks and injuries.
  14. Except Richardson is terrible... What has he done since joining the colts or this year at all? Edit: since joining the colts he has 151 yards and 2 Tds on 51 carries in 3 games! This season he has 51 points in 5 games! That said Thomas might make the deal worth it. Cameron has come back down to earth a bit...
  15. What in the world happened to Eli manning?
  16. Somehow found James jones on the waiver! Gonna offer jones and Moreno for Charles and see if he bites. Does that seem less lopsided to the consensus? Edit: again it is a ppr league which boosts morenos value a bit.
  17. Ding dong the b*tch is dead!!!
  18. Another penalty! Wow! If the Bills got half this lucky...
  19. So was that offsides lol lucky f"&ks
  20. Love your draft analysis. Love your camp reports. I get all that for a simple vote? It's yours my man! Good luck and c'mon board if you read this board in April or August you owe it to him!
  21. 2 fumbles that bounce right back to them?!?! Wow! A bit surprised belicheat punted there. Lets see if it (hopefully) comes back to bite them!
  22. It happened right before the snap though. One heck of a lucky guess if that's what it was. Not saying conspiracy just a weird sequence and one that, with the pats* history, I found interesting.
  23. Did anyone else catch the 3rd down play that happened just now in the bengals game? After a false start backed them up to the 6 rigt before the play happened something or someone said qb sneak. Guess what the play was? It wasn't the commentator either. Anyone have any idea who or what it was?
