Doctor Who is back (spoilers) moovinut Aug 28, 16:41

I am glazing my eyes over your post until I have watched this tomorrow night. Jane_Citizen Aug 28, 21:42

my thoughts Jane_Citizen Aug 30, 16:58

One week to prepare for draft; I hope all that all do the live draft I know who I am taking in the first round :) {nm} damenchipguy Aug 28, 12:16

What if someone else takes him first? islander Aug 28, 14:14

I was born In Stillwater, OK. I live 10 min. from our stadium, I do not ever take Sooners! Not even A.D. besides Bradford be hurt by week 8. {nm} damenchipguy Aug 28, 15:19

Heh OSU top 10, but Sooners at #1 must hurt :) {nm} islander Aug 28, 15:40

Serious news: Arian foster injured hamstring; still expected to make week 1. {nm} islander Aug 28, 14:54

can someone provide the link to the FFL website? Thanks {nm} Moviesnob Aug 27, 19:55

ffl islander Aug 28, 08:41

thx {nm} Moviesnob Aug 28, 11:26

TV PSA: Doctor Who "Let's Kill Hitler" in 20 minutes. (better be good or will be my last episode until Moffatt leaves) islander Aug 27, 17:40

I know, right? It is almost like they are wanting us to pirate the HD version six hours before it airs on BBCA. PrezBO Aug 27, 21:14

Australian TV *definitely* wants us to pirate it. Jane_Citizen Aug 28, 00:26

Are you said unscrupulous person? *eyes suspiciously* :P {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 28, 04:14

Unscupulous, moi? {nm} Jane_Citizen Aug 28, 21:41

Fantasy Hockey: just wanted to see if there's interest in joining a roto league...I can set it up... tealfan Aug 27, 13:10

i'm in {nm} Moviesnob Aug 27, 19:54

Damn, I would, but I can't make that draft time {nm} lapuckfan Aug 28, 07:13

if i even get enough people, I'll try to a time that works for most {nm} tealfan Aug 28, 12:32

well, had no idea how much time my wifes new business was going to take from me. won't be around much for awhile as all my free is going to lobogotti Aug 26, 20:35

Aww, I'll miss you and your posts 'round these parts. Good luck with the launch! {nm} Paul2k Aug 26, 20:46

Nooo... Bandit should stick around... {nm} VictorY Aug 27, 11:32

I'll miss you and your posts. Hope the business goes well! Don't burn yourself out though. :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 26, 21:46

good luck...your seat on the "board" will be here when you get back {nm} tealfan Aug 26, 22:02

hope her business is successful..... good luck {nm} alfpaul Aug 26, 22:52

best of luck to you both, we'll be here when you are back! {nm} Jane_Citizen Aug 27, 00:40

Does this mean you're on the assembly line? {nm} edzep Aug 27, 01:45

don't worry, we'll forget about you in no time {nm} islander Aug 27, 06:52

Hope you still have time for us to kick your behind on FF... :) best of luck with the business {nm} slappydavid Aug 27, 11:50

Is there a bigger wimp in professional sports right now than Joe Mauer? I don't think so. HarryWarden Aug 26, 10:21

Aww...did Mauer steal your lunch money? {nm} Paul2k Aug 26, 10:25

Nope, instead he's stolen 23M from the Twins for the next 8 years of constant injuries and no personality {nm} HarryWarden Aug 26, 10:28

The Twinkies were willing to pay him that much for that long. Blame the GM and ownership for throwing that much money at someone who plays Paul2k Aug 26, 10:35

He wasn't willing to learn to play First Base until recently HarryWarden Aug 26, 10:42

How do you know that he doesn't give a crap about playing hard? That he doesn't offer leadership? Do you talk to him? Are you in the locker Paul2k Aug 26, 10:58

But at least Cal was out there playing every game. I'd even take someone like Brett Favre, though a diva, you could count on him to play {nm} HarryWarden Aug 26, 11:03

Must be nice to throw an opinion out there without ever backing it up with anything useful {nm} alfpaul Aug 26, 11:14

So you support money-grubbing players who don't give it their all? Normal people would be fired if they were out as much as he has been {nm} HarryWarden Aug 26, 11:15

Nope I support the free market system that rewarded a guy based on his play...and I reward opinions that are backed up by something {nm} alfpaul Aug 26, 11:16

Backed up? Just look at the number of games he has missed. There's no excuse for that when you're being paid like he is. HarryWarden Aug 26, 11:19

Like lets take my opinion on your points alfpaul Aug 26, 11:24

Do you think they'll fire the coach? {nm} HarryWarden Aug 26, 11:27

eh, not from the area and don't follow the team alfpaul Aug 26, 11:33

I wonder how long it'll take them to fire Gardenhire. The Vikings fired Childress even though he had won the division the year before. HarryWarden Aug 26, 11:14

if he gets fired, cubs should pick him up {nm} islander Aug 27, 06:56

If he plays hurt, goes 0 for 4 and the injury gets worst, how does that help the team? {nm} Antibody Aug 26, 12:53

Been contemplating having an eBay frenzy for a while now... accountant_4_Jesus Aug 26, 06:19

was thinking of doing the same thing. lobogotti Aug 26, 07:04

I still haven't had time to email you yet, but would you mind emailing me with the details of said collection? {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 26, 13:35

I sell lots of games, movies on half.com. I find it a little easier than running auctions on ebay. {nm} eyescovered Aug 26, 09:01

Never even heard of that site before now. What's it like? {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 26, 13:42

my live draft update.... lobogotti Aug 25, 21:12

starting to put together my list, i had only two hard rules: no bears and no white running backs islander Aug 26, 06:04

yeah, but Cutler in the 7th (11th) round in a 2 QB league I had to snag him. poor Hillis would not make your team...I expect big things lobogotti Aug 26, 07:02

Good draft considering the settings alfpaul Aug 26, 08:33

thanks alf. in the 4 years I have gotten 2nd and 3rd, but never won it. don't think I will this year either, kinda hate keeper leagues {nm} lobogotti Aug 26, 09:31

What I don't like about living in Australia.... thesilverfox Aug 25, 19:35

Yeah but you have koalas hanging in the trees {nm} Buy StarBondFund Aug 25, 19:48

Spare a thought for people who live in a town where the only cinema screen is managed by the local shire council, who are cheapskates. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 25, 21:07

Tamworth is the big smoke for you? Ouch! Do you get any blockbusters at your local council one? {nm} thesilverfox Aug 25, 23:35

Yeah, we do get the blockbusters, but the council is too stingy to pay upfront fees, so we get them like 2-3 months after release. accountant_4_Jesus Aug 26, 00:35

that has to hurt. My rellos all live in the regions* and it's frustrating how narrow the range they can choose from is Jane_Citizen Aug 27, 01:23

You can always pre order from Amazon. {nm} PVL Admin Aug 25, 22:52

That's true, but.. thesilverfox Aug 25, 23:38

surely 30MOL will be released here eventually? It's true that it's harder to be patient when playing HSX ... Jane_Citizen Aug 27, 01:18

I think we got Thor a week or 2 early... {nm} thesilverfox Aug 27, 17:57

That's right we did. Not that I saw it thought :) But there you go. {nm} Jane_Citizen Aug 28, 00:27

Is anyone watching Americas Got Talent? moovinut Aug 25, 17:39

My favorite is WSDT {nm} HarryWarden Aug 25, 17:46

I do, I like WSDT, I think poplyfe will finish second my favorite was eliminated the female comedian, {nm} damenchipguy Aug 26, 10:22

To those playing our FFL, have you done any prep, research, etc. All I've done is watched 2 quarters of the bears (awful btw) {nm} islander Aug 25, 12:10

I'm in a few leagues and have a cool spreadsheet built. Moviesnob Aug 25, 12:13

thanks. looking it over now {nm} islander Aug 25, 14:37

Nope. Don't plan to either. I'm a believer with going with my gut. PRodQuanta Aug 25, 12:27

"I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have **** for brains" Moviesnob Aug 25, 12:31

Well, my relying on my gut and watching my fair share of Sports Center and games has put me in 1st place this year in my FBaseball league... {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 25, 13:55

Funny though, haha. {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 25, 13:55

got a live draft tonigth at Barlos Pizza! leave in 40 minutes. home of the 29" and I just ordered the sucker.... lobogotti Aug 25, 12:53

LOL...I bought it for the fellas. no way I could eat that bad boy alone!! back in the day I sure would have tried. {nm} lobogotti Aug 25, 13:03

doh...I'm not relinking on the Movie Board. lazy buggers can find it over here! {nm} lobogotti Aug 25, 08:32

isn't/wasn't Tobey part of Leo's supposed posse? {nm} tealfan Aug 25, 12:12

yep...they are mad close {nm} lobogotti Aug 25, 12:53

there were also rumors that this posse went to clubs and had all the best looking women brought over to them...lol {nm} tealfan Aug 25, 15:30

Thanks for posting, but one MovieStock tag for all the pics is enough. {nm} Antibody Nov 01, 09:43

Gadhafi's Mansion is stupid.... lobogotti Aug 25, 07:39

secretly stashed gay porn? what is he, a Republican Congressman? islander Aug 25, 08:15

LMAO {nm} lobogotti Aug 25, 08:26

The best bit is the photo album of Condoleezza Rice pictures. {nm} Jane_Citizen Aug 25, 17:32

life board is hopping, 75+ posts today. has to be a record. {nm} islander Aug 24, 20:50

it's alive! {nm} tealfan Aug 24, 21:40

Wow... I'm used to this board rolling once every six months. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Aug 25, 06:17

Steve Jobs no longer CEO of Apple, didn't see that one coming {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 16:15

SHORT APPLE! {nm} Antibody Aug 24, 16:32

Call to action! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Aug 25, 06:39

He must not have long to live. Surely he would have stuck around until the announcement of the iPhone 5 in a few weeks. {nm} PrezBO Aug 24, 18:05

Guess when the announcement was made? PrezBO Aug 24, 18:10

No idea. He was elected chairman of the board though. You're probably right, he's a workaholic so it's certainly an health issue. {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 19:35

That and the whole pancreatic cancer deal. PrezBO Aug 24, 19:50

Yeah. But I hear Cook is good. He's doing the job since january. Anyway, I guess we'll see what happens. {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 19:54

Not trying to be too mean-spirited, but what's with clueless people trying to post news? Manipulation? Ego? Disrespect? {nm} islander Aug 24, 13:53

I'm glad my news post came 2 minutes after your post..otherwise I would have thought you were talking directly about me :) lobogotti Aug 24, 14:03

I think it's people eager to be a part of the game, to put their stamp on it without realizing that there are unspoken rules about posting Paul2k Aug 24, 14:08

Haha, jinx! You owe me a soda... {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 24, 14:12

sure...here, let me shake it up for you first. *runs away* {nm} Paul2k Aug 24, 14:18

Haha {nm} PRodQuanta Aug 24, 14:23

Just seems like they never introduce themselves, or join discussions, or post on players board, they jump right to getting moderated ;) {nm} islander Aug 24, 14:29

Gotta cut your teeth sometime... I've recently tried posting news for the first time after watching the wisers for a while. I think until PRodQuanta Aug 24, 14:11

Remember me? I just was so eager to get in here and be respected. It is just newbies trying to sit at the cool kids table :) {nm} damenchipguy Aug 24, 14:43

What are those "unspoken" rules? {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 16:00

Haha, exactly. Just keep reading the forums and you'll find out sooner or later PRodQuanta Aug 24, 16:20

When posting news: Paul2k Aug 24, 16:23

+1....and trust me, I learned the hard way. harder than anyone on here imo. people have learned from my HONEST mistakes. {nm} lobogotti Aug 24, 16:58

For the most part, see the process that Antibody uses when posting news. He is the forum moderator and voice of HSX. {nm} Paul2k Aug 24, 16:25

Thanks. I probably started to post news too soon. I did watch Antibody alot. I noticed the sites he used, the way he wrote the news (...) DOW53 Aug 24, 19:39

Anyway, I'm sorry if I offended anybody by trying to post news. Just trying to be part of the community I guess. {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 19:40

Feel free to post news...you'll get the hang of it. Anyways, even the best of us screw it up from time to time. :) Join the community. {nm} Paul2k Aug 24, 19:45

Thank you :). I got it all right except for one thing. I don't know how to do the link of my source. Could you help me with that? {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 19:47

islander was nice enough to type up this nice how to a few weeks ago on the support board. Paul2k Aug 24, 20:58

honestly, welcome to the community. as with any community, there are nice guys (like lobo) and a-holes (like ?!?) islander Aug 24, 19:49

Well, it's not easy to sort out what's important and what isn't when you start so I apologize for that, but I think for the most part I DOW53 Aug 24, 19:52

you're not even close to a bad guy. you're fun. I feel your pain when you talk about work...love to see those updates. {nm} lobogotti Aug 24, 20:44

keep em' coming Dow. it really is a learning curve. doesn't seem it at first but man if you mess up you hear about it quick! {nm} Stork Aug 24, 20:43

You're right about that! :) {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 20:45

Meh, I don't think so {nm} DOW53 Aug 24, 16:12

For The Wire fans & would-be fans, Amazon has the 23 disc DVD boxset for $72 and change today. PrezBO Aug 24, 10:04

I have the exact set...steal of a deal. think i paid $110 for mine on sale 3 years ago. {nm} lobogotti Aug 24, 10:09

I've seen it through three times and I still had to get it, if for the commentary alone. {nm} PrezBO Aug 24, 10:27
