  1. I can't be the only person who wonders how they managed to convince Marlon Brando to play the role of the cancer lady on that show.
  2. I feel like the drawing of the gun isn't really a major concern in that video. I don't put much stock in the analysis of the pictures that was included in bio's link, but as I watch the video, it is very clear that the officer was completely focused on that one kid when he pulled his gun. I don't know what the kid said or what exactly that gesture was that he made towards his shirt/waistline, but it does look very aggressive to me. Getting crowded as he was at that very moment, I have no problem with him pulling the gun. It may have gotten much uglier if he hadn't. And ultimately, he didn't shoot anyone. I would love to know exactly what sparked the tackling of the girl though. That portion is just off camera. Whether or not his actions were justified, something must have happened to spark that. What did she say and who initiated contact? Those are the big questions to me. The thing that bothers me about the coverage of this whole situation and many of the other recent stories is that complete blame is thrown fully at the cops. For a long list of reasons, there is a ton of tension between the police and black people. We seem to focus solely on one side of that relationship, but at some point people are going to need to realize that both sides need to make steps to improve things. There isn't just one single guilty party here.
  3. The thing that bugs me more than anything is how often these stories pop up. Everyone talks about how disgusting these stories are, but at the same time, we're not the least bit surprised when the latest accusation comes out. Mankind is far more screwed up than we could ever imagine.
  4. The part where it started to annoy me was when fans starting thinking that they need to do it too. And speaking of that Penguin team, the one thing they should ban is the Crosby playoff "beard".
  5. I get sick of having to hear about playoff beards. I just don't care to hear a single word about a player's physical appearance while I am watching a game.
  6. Inky was originally cast for the role of Winston in Ghostbusters, but had to give it up due to scheduling conflicts
  7. I suppose it could potentially be viewed as a spoiler, so click this link at your own risk. I just came across this awesome bit of casting for season two of Daredevil. I don't care too much about the actor choice (he was great in the Walking Dead though), I'm just pumped to see that character added to the show.
  8. I don't like Kaleta or his style of play, but I do realize that it is a style that can help out a team. If it's not him, they're still going to look for someone who brings a similar style. I guess I'd have no problem with him being on the team as long as he's not getting any more than 4th line minutes. If nothing else, he serves as a distraction for the other team while he's out there and if his ice time is limited, his reputation is less likely to have him sitting in the box as frequently.
  9. Touched by Boyes will someday be touched by girls
  10. Wyld was that kindergartener
  11. wjag has a superfluous third nipple
  12. If your purpose is to get drunk, then by all means buy the cheap stuff. There's a time and a place for everything.
  13. My brother just got a Kia minivan (sorry, I have no idea what the model names are for them). Sure I had my fun mocking him, but you better believe that he was the first person I called for help with my move next weekend. Ultimately, I don't really care what the vehicle looks like if it gets me where I need to go and can hold everything I need to move.
  14. Heimdall got the perfect amount of screen time in Age of Ultron.
  15. That's a real chicken in his picture
  16. So you're saying that you took the Bud Light?
  17. That's what she said?
  18. Woods-Racer understands that everything posted in this thread is a lie and that nothing stated can be taken seriously, not a single word.
  19. Woods-Racer is a good person
  20. If you're at some gathering and someone offers you a free beer, you'll accept a Bud Light. (and that's a generic "you", I'm not talking about you specifically)
  21. Do be, do be do.
  22. Don't we play this speculation game every offseason?
  23. You have to be off on Andrew a amerk. His whole MO is quick witty puns.
  24. I thought this thread was about Girgensons.
