  1. All three seasons are on Netflix. I just checked.
  2. Arguably S1E1 is the freakiest one of them all. Black Mirror in general is a fantastic show - rooted in a dislike for technology and with strong emotional quotient. Each story is quite distinct and you never know where it is going. If you want to watch it with a SO (assuming you are male), S3 Episode San Junipero is the easiest to start with. Some excellent writing and direction. The only one I truly disliked is S3E1 cos I hate Bryce Dallas Howard - she can singlehandedly destroy the impact of a good story.
  3. I can see those points of view. As years have gone along, mydislike for Fed has gone down. In the first few years, I thought he was very arrogant and hardly complimented his opponent after a loss or win. Perhaps the last few years he has been more humble and more appreciative, esp of nadal. I liked Nadal right from the beginning due to his fire, determination, play-every-stroke-hard attitude. No matter which side of the proverbial fence you are on, it is undeniable that the longevity and ability to repeatedly come back from injuries must be admired in both men. Their approach and dedication is a life lesson for all of us. If we all lived lives in the way they have approached their tennis careers, we would all be better people for sure. I will be rooting for Nadal but give the edge to Fed based on how consistent he has been with his serve and his low unforced errors. I feel Nadal plays the rallies better but his forehand has been a problem - which Fed will exploit. As fans, the best case scenario is a hard fought 5 setter. Not sure my heart can handle it but hey - thats the fun of sports.
  4. I am a Nadal fan too cos of the way he approaches the game and how humble he is off court. AUS open is tough but I record the games when these greats are in the finals. I woke up at 4 this morning and watched the game straight through. What a great semi finals ! Dimitrov has arrived
  5. ← The Stadium Wall Buffalo Bills Community » Any tennis fans out there ? What a setup in the year 2017 at the Australian Open Venus vs Serena Williams Nadal vs Federer Total age of the four = 136 years People talk about how committed and driven Brady is. How about a nod to the above four who waded through a sea of young bloods to be in top of the tennis world this weekend. Two of them will lift the trophies but there will be no losers. Certainly not tennis fans worldwide !
  6. Do you truly not see the cause and effect in this situation ? I am a Whaley supporter but acknowledge that he made mistakes. This was one of them.
  7. For someone as driven as Brady is, no number of wins are going to be enough. Lets build a Bills team to beat him, not on the hope that he will retire soon.
  8. I dont care about any other logic. Anybody-but-Pats** I wish I could borrow the DC Tom bot for a single use.
  9. As you shouldnt. I too lamented him not being retained. For others trying to reconcile away his performance on the Pats**, the question is NOT whether he would have put similar numbers with the Bills. The question is if the Bills passing O would have benefited from his presence on the team. It would be real tough for anyone to argue that it would not.
  10. Good luck to Bortles. Poor guy
  11. Ummmm... Why would they say a veiled good-bye if they have another game or two to play ?
  12. No apologies needed. Rodgers, imho, is scheme independent which is why I admire him as a QB. He deserves another ring but not sure if the Pack have the horses to stop the Falcons
  13. Oh. Maybe too early in the morning for my reading comprehension to kick in
  14. Seriously? I would take street game Rodgers over pretty boy Brady any game.
  15. Maybe arguing semantics but Rodgers lifts the team around him season after season. If that's not good enough to be a 'franchise QB', then I dispute its meaning.
  16. In India right now. Woke up few minutes back and this is live on TV in HD. Life's good
  17. I hope he holds on for one more year and guides the new defense to maturity. Fully on board with your opinion about KW
  18. If I understand him, I don't think he is advocating cutting KW. He is talking about contracts. Major's contract strategy may be debatable but I don't think he was saying 'cut Kyle'
  19. I found his twin... https://www.google.com/search?q=william+sadler+pictures&client=tablet-android-nvidia&prmd=isnv&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&fir=AxQMu0Ref841PM%253A%252C5AaHC-l0ZX7uBM%252C_%253BBaautjrCUP3ALM%253A%252Cv9RXrDecy7cVUM%252C_%253BHhb4pOrqp2WqPM%253A%252CMoE4aZRkiBUXmM%252C_%253BC0tpdCv0Vg8exM%253A%252CEzssuG1wtmrlmM%252C_%253B6GddR1BaNlHSKM%253A%252CtXva7ibbIlRqGM%252C_%253B84oGHP5axe7PIM%253A%252CNExcBk5XPfYa6M%252C_%253BiX31Z3AMTXxAaM%253A%252Cy21DvfJrrYrWMM%252C_%253BRC7XFqLrlWWltM%253A%252CEzssuG1wtmrlmM%252C_%253BZz3rNc2KgsnCSM%253A%252CSITZYfjjfccVwM%252C_%253BDS2yJrlnxJHD_M%253A%252CNExcBk5XPfYa6M%252C_%253BHW72NuxWW9Fd3M%253A%252CtXva7ibbIlRqGM%252C_%253B-AE8ZuJSHe062M%253A%252C6xTTvCgO_NXtcM%252C_%253BkqjdvJ9pVG2FEM%253A%252Ct2H_FcAeF9iesM%252C_%253B9A4j01hSehr0lM%253A%252CSEb1v1L7rFhCWM%252C_%253BV_rgK_SMvJb-yM%253A%252C6xTTvCgO_NXtcM%252C_%253BY4UOiOj-jAsI-M%253A%252C6xTTvCgO_NXtcM%252C_%253BojIXcDuuzJ9DcM%253A%252C6xTTvCgO_NXtcM%252C_%253BTaCFse-6NFUS_M%253A%252CroEHurrndEBmnM%252C_&usg=__27P-LMBFsZ0gVWSfubDlPkJ0tNg%3D&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj0heKL1brRAhWm8YMKHZBjCB8Q7AkIQg&biw=600&bih=960&dpr=2#imgrc=dhGLY4wKddQFrM%3A
  20. Yep. Wonder what the penalty would be if a Brady had been rocked like that.
  21. Wow. Didnt realize the impact was that significant. Re-inforces that decision.
  22. Not entirely on board with this reasoning behind why Whaley may not want Lynn. But I see the logic. As of the names being considered, I would think Goodwin and Lynn would be the top 2 choices. Goodwin cos if his reported attention to detail (and the good Lord knows we need that) and Lynn cos of continuity and ability to mask deficiencies. In any case, I am not sure Lynn would be a full go on TT even if given the latitude to decide. He would certainly not have to be handicapped at the QB position to start his HC career. His hand may be forced by the lack of options though..
