  1. I'm attempting to replace someone who has to this point been a no-show in Werewolf. If anyone who's not playing yet is interested, let me know.

    1. Looks like it's coming. Bolton, however, is a mess. I certainly didn't think they were elite, but they're awful so far. Chelsea controlled that game even more than the 5-1 score showed.

      1. I had high hopes for Bolton this year. And now Stu Holden is out another 6 months. I mentioned it at AtD, but I worry he's becoming John O'Brien 2.0

    1. It definitely doesn't appear to be available on PS3. Also, has anyone seen it yet? Is the "companion coverage" nice looking? Would I have buyer's remorse?

  2. If anyone is watching Spurs-Arsenal go back to 54:46 and tell me that's not Kurt Cobain in the stands just behind the inbounder's shoulder.

    1. I'm not watching, but I'm pretty sure it's not Kurt Cobain, free. I don't think soccer is one of his things.

  3. The Vikings are playing the Chiefs today, but somehow I still have the Bears game. Not that I care about any of the three, but KC is 2.5 hrs, MSP is 4, and Chicago is 6

    1. I don't envy your local network having to pick between two crappy, crappy games like that.

  4. Tim Brewster is the sideline reporter for the Vikes/Chiefs game. Really drives home the point about "experts" that started with the Coom-dog discussion yesterday.

      1. I enjoyed his insight with about 5 minutes to go about how teams with the lead have a "4-minute drive" package of plays to ice out the game. How would he know that?

      1. Yes, Gus Johnson's shtick works for college basketball, but it is way over the top for the NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE.

  5. I like the Vikings newly implemented strategy. Suck all game so the second half collapse isn't as noticeable. That Leslie Frazier is a master tactician.

      1. And I don't think I am going to make it until Breaking Bad is over.

  6. Today the internet is telling me that only is the Arrested Devolopment movie coming along but there is going to be a 9-10 episode TV series lead up to the movie to explain what everyone has been doing the past 5 years.

    You could say this might excite me.

    1. I am in the middle of watching Season 3 on DVD ('MR F'). Why I didnt watch this show when it was on the air is beyond me.

      1. Because Fox wouldn't pick a time slot and stick with it. I was as big an AD fan as you could have been when it was being aired, but even I couldn't keep track of when it was on.

  7. All the Minnesota teams are lending their support to the Lynx's title run by sucking so hard that people will actually start paying attention to the WNBA. If I had remembered that they were playing today, I might have actually watched them win Game 1 of the WNBA Finals.
