Re: NFL 2014 season
BTW, nice job editing that "chill pill" post to make it less of a shitpost when called on it by another member without marking the edit. Really classy.

Re: NFL 2014 season
It is very funny how many seahawks fans suddenly post here despite not making posts before here. ... Because I had other places to discuss the game elsewhere that have much more activity, or that I was watching it with family otherwise? And I've posted before in this thread (both Duchess and I have...

Re: NFL 2014 season
Wow. I wonder how much Dallas paid those officials. The officiating was shit the entire game, though it definitely had a Dallas lean in the second half. That said, Detroit shit the bed on offense for an entire half with plenty of ineptitude on drives unaffected by missed calls. Their defense played...

Re: Legend of Korra Book 4 Talkback - "Balance" (Spoilers)
Actually, I would say that the real problem is that most television and cinema relationships are beaten into the audience's heads with all the subtlety of a mace to the skull, and the issues interpreting the scene for some people is a natural consequence of that trend. Notice for instance that when...

Re: Legend of Korra Book 4 Talkback - "Balance" (Spoilers)
I think its fine. This is episode nine-- they don't have much more episodes to go, so her recovery needs to get moving. I know of some people who were wanting more action from this season four episodes ago (although I don't necessarily agree with their opinions on pacing). Her inability to feel Raa...

Re: Legend of Korra Book 4 Talkback - "Balance" (Spoilers)
The missing episode budget explains why episode 9 felt so rushed. I liked the elements of it, but the fact that Korra reconnecting with Rava was breezed over in 5 seconds left me with a "what?"

Re: 96% of deceased NFL players had brain trauma
Yeah, no football or our kids. They'll probably end up playing soccer since some of my wife's cousins already do that. Much less risk of brain injury. http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2014-07-07/soccer-concussions-are-more-frequent-than-you-think It still happens quite a bit. If you're going wi...

This case reminds me of Gary Plouchet shooting his son's kidnapper.

Re: Firing range instructor dies after 9-year-old girl shoot
All this makes me think of is the other young kid that was given an Uzi and shot himself due to extreme recoil. At least in this case, it was the negligent range official and not the kid who paid the price for the negligence of adults. I feel horrible knowing that the little girl will blame herself ...

Re: no charges for cop who shot kid holding bb gun
Way to completely avoid the question. When you were hired, your job description did not contain the words "customers may try to run you over". A police officer's job description does include "may be engaged in a firefight with criminals. "Just because you work at a shop which so...

Re: no charges for cop who shot kid holding bb gun
Let's see. Being a police officer does automatically mean you're bound to get into situations where criminals will try to hurt/kill you. How, exactly, does running an automotive detail shop automatically mean you'll get into situations where people try to run you over with an automobile? You've nev...

Another case of a situation where police in other nations wouldn't have killed the kid. Really? The entire situation is almost identical to one in the UK a few years ago. An armed response unit was called out to report of a bloke carrying a shotgun concealed in a bag, they ordered him to halt, and ...
