  1. Is that who Dave's referring to here:
  2. Take a look at Audacity: Site I have limited exposure to it but a former co-worker used it for a lot of his audio work.
  3. Not quite. You mean the action-movie guy with the Austrian voice on the Simpsons, don't you?
  4. Ohhhh, Jaguars/Colts! So glad I have other resources to view the Bills game.
  5. I thought about skipping this week's broadcast but I don't dare cross The Moats.
  6. CBS and FOX can protect a certain number of games. According to WikiPedia: Fox and CBS each may protect a total of five Sunday afternoon games, not more than one per week, during weeks 11-16 and NBC selects which game they want to air. FOX and CBS cannot protect games in week 17.
  7. I'd have to agree with you, Mead.
  8. "We're not drinking any f#@k!ng Merlot!" ("Sideways") Happy Birthday, Mead!
  9. Saints/Rams and Colts/Titans are two of my local games. Nothing like watching a couple of winless teams attempt to extend their streaks!
  10. I tried the Fried Kool Aid at my State Fair in August. Color me unimpressed: it was six spheres of dough that was rolled in Cherry Kool Aid powder and deep fried, sprinkled with powdered sugar. Too much Cherry flavor for me and bland-tasting on the outside.
  11. Turns out Jerome Harrison was diagnosed with a brain tumor during his Philly physical: @AdamSchefter Adam Schefter Without trade, Jerome Harrison doesn't get physical. Without physical, doctors don't find brain tumor. Trade might have saved his life.
  12. Has anyone seen the documentary, "Six Days to Air: The Making of South Park"? It aired this week on Comedy Central and shows how much stress these guys put on themselves. They try to wedge in the main plot and sub-plot in the 20+ minutes they have of programming. It shows how difficult it is to cut scenes and add scenes to make the show work. Really a good doc on Matt/Trey and the group who works insane hours to generate an episode from scratch every week during the season. The staff goes through a lot to make the shows relevant instead of putting them in a can a few months ahead of time.
  13. Just a small correction in your article, the Wild Card game @ Tennessee was dubbed the "Music City Miracle". The Motor City is a nickname for Detroit.
  14. I used to cover Lloyd's games when he played at the University of Illinois. He was perceived as a diva, me-first type of guy who had tons of talent but couldn't put it all together. He was a key member of the Illini team that won the Big Ten in '01and played LSU (Josh Reed) in the Sugar Bowl in January 2002. The 2002 season had high hopes for Illinois but they underachieved and missed bowl eligibility. Lloyd's underachieving and locker room attitude was a part of the problem. Maybe Lloyd has turned a new leaf and is a terrific teammate now in Denver? However, I remain skeptical and worry he would impact the team chemistry in Buffalo. Maybe Lloyd comes in and helps this team to reach Indy this year and he'll erase my doubts.
  15. I can't begin to tell you my excitement of having the Colts-Bengals game on my local CBS. That's because I am far from excited. I guess it's another week of watching the Bills online!
  16. I just bought a ticket to Game Five of the NLCS. Brewers-Cardinals is gonna be a fun series I think. These teams are not fond of each other, so someone is going to be torqued that they lost to the other team for a right to the World Series.
  17. Stuck with NO/Carolina on locally, ugh. I hope they change their minds and go with the better game.
  18. The clinical diagnosis for that video is called Verbal Diarrhea.
  19. If we're talking roasts we might as well get Chef Jim involved. That's the only way a roast will be done right- and deliciously!
  20. Shiver me timbers! Ye be lucky I don't make ye swab the Poop Deck! ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
  21. I'm going to leave it to KGB to have the final say on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jUBbCgMWmE
  22. My local CBS is showing Cleveland/Indy. Without Peyton Manning that game is less appealing, as if it was slightly appealing at all. (ugh) As Brick Tamaland would say, "I love Lamp!" (he also loved table but what do you expect from a guy who killed another man with a trident?
  23. If they're going to place of the 80's-era backs on the Wall I would rather see Joe Cribbs go up before Greg Bell. Joe was the offensive star of those Chuck Knox-led teams, IMO. Joe's stats. Greg's stats.
