  1. On topic: 8 months after the thread started and Abbey Road is still my favorite Beatles album. Off topic: if I had to choose between a world without the Beatles or a world without the Stones I would never have heard "You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)".
  2. That used to be my MO. Wife and kids in bed, I'd break out the headphones, DVD and a large drink or three. Wifey got it and actually bought me expensive headphones that I wouldn't have sprung for. I have a Jane's Addiction DVD from a Halloween show in New Orleans that was a go to but haven't watched for quite a while. That's about to change.
  3. This is a bit LAMPish but some intersections in my life with the two posts above: First and only time time I saw The Who was around 1982 in the Syracuse Carrier Dome. Sat top row, pretty sure it was row ZZ. It was the first of many farewell tours for The Who. Keith Moon was long gone. First and only time (before tonight) I had heard of Rockpalast was a video of Porcupine Tree playing Futile (below). I saw one of the bands last performances at Radio City. The drummer, Gavin Harrison, is the second best I've ever seen live. Best drummer I ever saw live was Neil Peart. First and only time I saw him was at the Syracuse Carrier Dome circa 1983-1984. Unlike the Who concert we were 2nd or 3rd row center. Only two shows I ever saw at Syracuse, crappiest seats I've had for a concert and best seats I've had for an arena concert.
  4. If there was a favorite Stones album poll Exile would have at least two votes. The album, not the lock master.
  5. Hate to admit it but I thought the same thing. Still a fun watch. Much more enjoyable than the 3+ hours I spent watching football last Sunday.
  6. They really should have set that to music: EDIT: I'm either too lazy or not set up to scrape the Milano highlight video and splice in the S.O.D. audio. But if you open a tab with the highlights and mute the audio, open another tab with the Milano Mosh youtube video and hit play on both the result is pretty cool.
  7. You ain't got no problem, Ice. I'm on the $%@#*&. Go back in there and chill them Packer fans out and wait for The Wolf, who should be coming directly.
  8. That's at least a six head, maybe a seven head.
  9. Nice to see Bills-related threads on the main board. Good on ya mate.
  10. On the day that the Phillies trade for Realmuto we bring back Mesoraco on a minor league deal. I'm not complaining about either move, but the timing is humorous.
  11. What do I think? The offseason is always way too long and starts way too early for us.
  12. I did not watch the video. And I am not prone to this type of statement. You all now have 11 months to call me out: Post of the year!
  13. I look forward to this every year. Every time we see Blakeman ref a game me and my kids look at each other and say "what's with all the floor bags?"
  14. Truth: Parcells never won a Super Bowl without Belichick Truth: Belichick never won a Super Bowl without Brady Speculation: good coaches need good assistants and good QBs to succeed. Parcells coaching tree includes SB winners Belichick and Payton. Not sure if either has spawned a SB winner. Sooooo....was Parcells all Belichick? No, he was not. Did he benefit greatly from the evil genius? Yes, parttiuclarly against us. And for the record, if you're gonna ask the question shouldn't you at least spell the mans name correctly?
  15. I won exactly $0 dollars. Funny part was I was siting on around $2500 if the Pats had turned 10-3 into 17-3. I was caught between rooting for a garbage time TD that would win me money and a chance for the Rams to take the game to OT and beat the evil Patriots. Story of my life - neither happened.
  16. Hate to admit it, but it is what it is. Edelman was the best player on the field, Pats were the better team. Props to Wade and his crew. Holding the Pats to 13 and losing is a bitter pill to swallow. The Rams offense was pitiful. Goff looked like rookie Goff.
  17. Am I the only one amazed that neither coach threw a challenge flag? Patriots probably could've got a completion overturned but the Rams rushed to the line and snapped the ball. Only call that bothered me was when NRC tackled the receiver behind the line of scrimmage. Not even sure what the call was for. Looked like a great football play to me.
  18. I wasn't saying they would move the game to Saturday, I'd be shocked if they moved it off Sunday any time soon. But if hypothetically they decided to move the game to Saturday I'd be surprised if the Hall Of Fame announcements would stand in the way. And that's because it's never been on my radar screen. Perhaps its far more popular than I'm aware of.
  19. Outstanding. I came across this band/song from the Repo Man movie and soundtrack, both of which are phenomenal:
  20. Thanks, I had no idea. I wonder what kind of ratings it gets, I've been oblivious to it. For that reason I'm skeptical that moving it to Friday would be an obstacle to make room for a Saturday SB....plenty of reasons that won't happen, I just never considered this one..
  21. Really? Maybe I'm in the minority but Saturday night before the SB is a non-event to me. I look forward to finding out who makes the Hall but I don't think I've ever seen the announcements. Is it televised? Not trying to be a jerk, just asking and genuinely surprised at your comment.
  22. I once charted all the final scores of Super Bowls. For the most part it's what you'd expect. 0, 7 and 3 were the most prevalent. What was interesting (but not surprising in hindsight) is that for the losing team 0, 3 and 7 are really common but the distribution for the winning team isn't nearly as skewed because they tend to score more points and get off the common numbers. As for me, I'm in for $100. I split a $100 box with a friend, I have 4 $10 boxes in two other pools and I have $10 on a prop bet pool that I run.
  23. Friendly suggestion: decaf might be something to consider.
  24. That was outstanding. Thanks.
