Sports Forum General Thread - the price has gone up because of my demands

[Drew Beringer]

I picked ETID as my AOTY and I'm a huge fanboy as well...

[preppyak]

good to see We Were Promised Jetpacks make the top 30 overall...probably my favorite new band in a long time

[Chris M.]

Joe's a cool guy, but his taste in music is pretty bad, haha.

[bigmike]

Anyone else used to love the Vendetta Red record, Between the Never and the Now? I used to spin the song "Shatterday" so fucking much back then.

MWL5O2NNXok

[startBBtoday]

really didn't get into too much new music in 2009, so i'd say that the avett brothers album is aoty pretty much by default for me.

there's definitely some solid songs on it...not my favorite by them though. I can't even decide my AOTY, there were a few bands I found that I really like though

What a throwback, great song.

my cousin got me a 3 month xbox live subscription when he knows i dont have a wireless adapter, and then he took a sharpie and blacked out the price on the card. wtf. do i have any chance of returning that somewhere for store credit?

[CarlosLunes]

Joe DeAndra's boner for NFG is ridiculous. I knew he'd pick their album for AOTY even though it was the furthest thing from it.

I was quite happy with #20 on the staff picks album of the year list

I don't think so if he blacked out the price. Try selling it to someone?

[Drew Beringer]

World's Greatest Dad was extremely dark but hilarious, Robin Williams was great in it. Definitely recommend the movie.

[Flags of Dawn]

I'm hoping I can maybe wipe it off somehow, but seriously...what a stupid present, haha. I doubt I'll be able to sell it to anyone, I'd think most people buy 12 month subscriptions.

Did not know that. I do know that the NFL banned the celebration because Captain Morgan was trying to get players to do it as an advertisement or endorsement.

Nah you can sell that. Probably get a good $20 from it.

anyone in the jersey area looking for tickets to the sold out starting line show on the 29th at the TLA in philly? there was a death in the extended family and i won't be able to make it. i have 3 tickets, probably looking for face to a little more than face value (just to recoup for fees) for them.

I went to this (sober) and did not enjoy it, haha. It was ok to look it at, but I couldn't get into the story. Especially since they were basically just indians colored blue.

[teddy]

Brenton, you going to all 3 days of Sasquatch again? I already have tickets for all 3 days.

[guccimaneburrrr]

Is Sasquatch Washington's version of Coachella?

[teddy]

Yeah, and it's at probably the best outside venue in the US and since it's on the east side of the mountains, the weather is usually awesome that time of the year.

[preppyak]

anybody recommend any beers from this list?

http://www.38degreesalhambra.com/drinks.html
Allagash Tripel - If you've never had a Tripel...its high alcohol, pretty sweet, and this particular one has some citrus to the flavor. It was one of my favorites last winter

Any of the Chimay's...I really like the Chimay Premier (similar to the Tripel, but a little darker with some nutty/roasted flavors too)

Haven't had the 10 Commandments, but I've heard good things about that as well

When in doubt...go to Beer Advocate and look up what people say about them...usually does a good job of telling you what it will taste like and if its well made

edit: Just saw the Hitachino...if that's the one I had in NYC, its an awesome, awesome Japanese beer. I've found it really hard to find except at places with 100+ taps

[LastPlaceRocks]

alright cool. any recommendations from the draft selection!?!?

[preppyak]

ha, didn't even see those were bottles. Paulaner is a great wheat beer...Racer 5 is a solid IPA...and I've heard a lot about Pliny the Elder. I want to say its ranked like #3 or #4 all time on Beer Advocate (only if you like hoppy though).

Also, the Framboise Lambic is good...interesting almost wine like beer that's pretty sweet and got champagne/soda like carbonation

At a place like that, tell the bartender what beers you already like...or what style you like...and they'll give you suggestions. That's how I found Hitachino and Paulaner

[teddy]

I can't wait to turn 21. Already a big fan of IPAs, can't wait to try every thing out there.

[preppyak]

I can't wait to turn 21. Already a big fan of IPAs, can't wait to try every thing out there.
Bell's Two Hearted Ale...if you can find it. Its a Michigan beer company...just, wow, I was blown away. Its a citrus burst at first and finishes off nice and bitter.

[teddy]

Oh I did the same thing - I'd recommend Pliny the Elder [Younger is better but they're both great], Magic Hat #9 [provided it's the one I think it is] and Duvel Green just because it's one of those beers which people go out of their way to try.

[StandMyBrothers]

have any of you east coasters had that Troegs mad Elf shit?

yeah...though Magic Hat should be pretty widely available...I know all the grocery stores I've been in on the East Coast have it. Definitely try some of the harder to find stuff (Duvel, Pliny, etc)

[LastPlaceRocks]

It gets harder to find the further West you go, so I don't know how readily available Magic Hat is in California.

And that talk about grocery stores reminds me how pissed off I am at Minnesota's fucking puritan liquor laws.

[Drew Beringer]

not Comcast

[guccimaneburrrr]

I don't think so.

[xbrokendownx]

i have comcast and have never had problems with it

ive heard good things about verizon fios but we dont have it in my area yet

[guccimaneburrrr]

time warner is in some big dispute with fox and may pull all fox programming from their services. that is dealbreaker for me considering the nfl and mlb on fox plus all of the angels and lakers games on fox sports.

i really really want to go this year. a bunch of my friends are flying out, doing the Sasquatch thing and then going up to Vancouver for a few days. I just have a hard time committing to a festival when I have no idea who's playing yet.

[bigmike]

Bell's Two Hearted Ale...if you can find it. Its a Michigan beer company...just, wow, I was blown away. Its a citrus burst at first and finishes off nice and bitter.
Hmm. I'll have to be on the look out for it. Bell's has a brewery like 15 mins from me in downtown Kalamazoo, but I haven't had Two Hearted Ale. I drink the fuck out of Oberon when it's in season, though.

[LastPlaceRocks]

What cable and internet provider do you guys suggest or prefer?
Direct TV/Verizon Fios - Time Warner/Comcast [two different companies but you only have one cable company in your area as a legal monopoly] are shit for cable but okay for internet-only if you can find a good deal.

[ForlrnPerplxity]

I have roughly $300 to spend, and I'm looking for ideas. I might put $180 on a decent surround sound system that I get a discount on, but I'm having second thoughts.

Anybody mind throwing out random ideas on what to spend the money on? I'm looking for random stuff to spend it on. Movies, books, electronics, doesn't matter. Just throw anything out there.

[LastPlaceRocks]

Bell's Two Hearted Ale...if you can find it. Its a Michigan beer company...just, wow, I was blown away. Its a citrus burst at first and finishes off nice and bitter.
You should try Hopslam when it comes out next month. It's essentially a double IPA of two-hearted ale and has an IBU of 138 [to put in perspective, a regular IPA has an IBU of 60-70] and is 10%.

[Flags of Dawn]

I heard the average person can't tell the difference in IBU when it gets over 100. That said, the Lagunitas Hop Stoopid is some good shit, (i think its just over 100)

Well The Gorge is an amazing venue, doesnt matter who's playing you'd have a good time just being there. I'm sure the line up will be good, it's been consistently good over the years. Camping is also a ton of fun, a big party haha.

[Killadelphia]

have any of you east coasters had that Troegs mad Elf shit?

It's alright. It is hyped up like crazy over here. A lot of alcohol, but idk if I feel like spending $15 on every 6 pack.

What cable and internet provider do you guys suggest or prefer?

We have comcast. It is alright. If I do dish/direct tv here, we don't get CSN, so that sucks.

True, I went back and looked at the lineup from last year, and it was really really solid, even though I discovered a lot of those bands this year. I'm halfway thinking about going to Lollapalooza, but it's usually hot as shit when that's held. Do you know when they announce the Sasquatch lineup?

I think the lineup gets announced in February. Pavement is the only confirmed band so far.

Weebs, are you not just loving this G1 (I think you said you have one)? I loved my Sidekick, but honestly this might be the best phone I've ever had.

Yeah...the Oberon is what got me into Bells's...I buy their 5L mini kegs of it and drink them in a few nights, its so, so good. I believe Bell's itself is based out of Kalamazoo...so, you are probably 15 minutes from their central operation.

[bigmike]

Yeah, they are based out of Kalamazoo but have since moved to being more like 30 mins from me (about just 15 from where I used to live, though; I've moved across town). There used to be a shitty little brewery downtown that held some punk shows every now and then and had good prices on oberon when it was in season but it closed down. Downtown Kalamazoo is like a mini Downtown Detroit. I avoid it at all costs.

[startBBtoday]

Weebs, are you not just loving this G1 (I think you said you have one)? I loved my Sidekick, but honestly this might be the best phone I've ever had.


i love it. my only complaint would be with t-mobile rather than the phone itself. having a keyboard rather than just a touch screen keyboard is the biggest thing for me.

[bigmike]

I do like the G1 as well. Though, I don't utilize it's capabilities as much as I should. And like Doug, my complaints are more with T-Mobile than the phone itself.

Yeah, I'll be on the lookout for it...I'm fairly certain my local beer place will have it. I hope its better than Dogfishhead's 90 minute IPA, cause that shit is too syrupy, even at 90IBU
I heard the average person can't tell the difference in IBU when it gets over 100. That said, the Lagunitas Hop Stoopid is some good shit, (i think its just over 100)
Yeah...I forget the #, but really even when you get into the 80's its hard for the human tongue to really process it all. I'm sure it does also depend on the other factors of the beer too...I've made beer where the IBU's are in the 40's, but they are more bitter tasting than something in the 60's or 70's
Direct TV/Verizon Fios - Time Warner/Comcast [two different companies but you only have one cable company in your area as a legal monopoly] are shit for cable but okay for internet-only if you can find a good deal.
Yeah...you might be able to get Comcast internet for $19.99/mth...though its possible that price is only good if you have their cable as well. I don't feel too bad about what I pay for Comcast cable/internet...but, I do know it means calling in every 6 months to "cancel" and making sure my bill never goes up

I thought it would be pretty awesome to follow Porn Stars on Twitter but they're absolutely the most annoying posters I have ever seen.

who do you follow?

imo german porn stars are less annoying than american porn stars, thats probably only because i dont understand german

I thought it would be pretty awesome to follow Porn Stars on Twitter but they're absolutely the most annoying posters I have ever seen.
yeah...the few that I've seen have twitters basically posted

a. Who they fucked on camera and how "great" it was
b. What bar/club/etc they were going to

Pretty useless stuff

[bigmike]

Where have I been for the record Hospice by The Antlers? This is fucking fantastic.

@NikkiBenz, and @MissNikkiRhodes (http://twitter.com/MissNikkiRhodes). Rhodes isn't as bad. I was following Stormy Daniels too until I found out she was dating the dude from Hollywood Undead.

[CarlosLunes]

ugh those girls are subhuman

most annoying porn star on twitter is definitely courtney cummz...but i love her

[Dirty Ernie]

the starting line killed it last night

Dude they killed again tonight, and Kenny was makin serious references to them either reuniting/playing more local shows.

[teddy]

Damn.. my friend's brother (he has a concealed weapons permit) just got arrested/charged with 2nd degree murder for shooting some guy who was beating up his friend, who had already been shot in the chest. Crazy shit.

send me a link to one and i'll translate some so we can see how they compare to the americans.

I don't know how many times I got punched last night but I'm definitely rocking my first shiner a little bit. I feel like hell. I may end up just staying in and doing nothing tonight now.

[Killadelphia]

why is everyone getting beat up?

[guccimaneburrrr]

where do you guys live that people are getting beat up and shot?

[Broken Parachute]

Got the new puppy today.

[guccimaneburrrr]

that's a good looking dog. i want to get a golden but there are no pets allowed in our apartment.

[gonz]

I guess I punched some guy twice with no real good reason last night. I don't remember it and I don't remember getting hit. Definitely feel like an asshole.

[guccimaneburrrr]

you're THAT guy

[Spicoli hey bud]

anyone else having issues with Firefox lately?
A lot. Mostly with videos and pictures loading.

[gonz]

I was for sure last night.

[teddy]

where do you guys live that people are getting beat up and shot?

My friend lives in Sierra Vista, Arizona. A lot sketchier there than where I live haha.

Got offered cocaine and sex last night by some random girl in a club. The look on her face when I told her I took a taxi and consequently didn't have a car was priceless.

[imirish06]

Man I can't believe I've been a part of this website since 2003 and 99.9% of my posts have been in the sports forum.

Haha that would've been even better. Of course I never think of it until it's too late.

I can't believe how many survivor pools have made it to the last week of the season this year.

Yeah man, that's how it is with all of the pools I'm in too. Of course, I'm eliminated in all of them.

i was into it. my tastes changed drastically since then, but i find i can listen to story of the year and not feel inclined to shut it off.


as you can see by my avatar, i'm on a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge hot water music kick. haven't stopped listening to caution and no division. those 2 albums got me through a lottt of shit going through high school /typical cliche.

[Scott Weber]

caution is by FAR my favorite HWM record. remedy is one of my favorite songs ever.

Yeah, I can still listen to all of that stuff I listened to back then and not turn it off because of the memories....if I first heard SOTY today though, I'd turn it off in about 30 seconds probably

edit: I'm about 95% certain I made a music video to "Sidewalks" back in high school...doubt I still have it

[pand75]

There's just something about that album. I love their live show too.

[aloneatlastnj]

absolutely. no division has my favorite HWM song on it (it's hard to know) but caution has such a mood and overall feel to it that has hit me so hard over the last 8 years.

[Drew Beringer]

Still can't stop listening to the new Wonder Years.

definitely, I haven't been able to get into much else from them outside of that album, but I love Remedy and Trusty Chords.

[aloneatlastnj]

don't see where all the love for them is coming from. not a fan of the vocals and i can't take the lyrics or premise of the new record seriously coming from a band that wrote about sea turtles and kicking some dude's ass with captain crunch...

[Scott Weber]

i was recommended wonder years too and I was bored almost instantly. i'll give it a second listen today but I was not impressed.

[Drew Beringer]

i was so excited for no division because walter was producing it. but it's my least favorite album of their's. still like it, but not to the level i love the rest of their disco.

flight and a crash is far and away my favorite release of their's.

[Spicoli hey bud]

Haha I'm pretty sure I had one of their lyrics as my usertitle a few years ago. I haven't listened to the new album yet though because I wasn't a big fan of the last one.

[pand75]

speaking of walter, he was supposed to have a solo album a couple years ago. haven't heard anything about it.

[QuikTrig]

anyone have contacts? i just got mine today and they feel so fucking weird. when i go in for my follow-up appointment next week, a couple of my friends told me to ask for one-day disposables if they carry them. any suggestions? are they worth the extra cost? also, the lady made it seem like taking care of contacts is intense, but i always see my friends sleeping in theirs and basically not taking care of them at all.

[Scott Weber]

contacts are easy.

one-days are ridiculously overpriced.

[we are cured]

it takes a few days to get used to having them in your eyes. i had a lot of problems with that when i first started wearing them.

also you should take care of them and take them out before sleep, but if you pass out in them its not really that big a deal.

[CubbyNick42]

Not intense at all. I hate sleeping in them, but if you can spare an extra 30 seconds in the morning, you're golden.

[xbrokendownx]

i have contacts but i rarely wear them...my eyes are overly sensitive and always have a hard time putting them in

[larokr]

I got contacts in 8th grade - they aren't that difficult. I have two-week disposables, but I can sometimes use them for more than 2 weeks, honestly. They made it seem like a big deal for me too, regarding taking care of them, but yeah - I also see people sleeping in them and not caring at all. The only time I ever sleep in them is if I just pass out. I personally don't think it's worth the price for the one-day disposables, because it honestly isn't that difficult to take care of contacts. Sure, it might be easier to just throw them away at the end of the day, but it isn't worth the cost.

[QuikTrig]

i was about to take a 30 minute nap, so i took them out. if i had left them in, no biggie right? i'm most scared of passing out with them overnight or sleeping somewhere that doesn't have solution. what do i do then? edit: i guess the consensus is that sleeping in them isn't a big deal at all, good to know.

ya they just feel weird as shit. takes me three or four tries of pressing into my eyeball to get them out, and by then my entire eye is bright red. and i guess its because its the first day, but i feel them every time i blink.

They gave me some schedule thing when I first got mine, like I could only wear them for a certain number of hours the first day, then increasing as time went on before I could wear them for however long I wanted or whatever. I guess to get my eyes adjusted to the contacts. Wish I still had the sheet (yes, it was listed on a sheet they gave me).

i use my 2 week contacts for like months at a time.

[QuikTrig]

oh ok. ya they didn't give me anything like that, i've only had them in for a couple hours but i'm going to take em out for the day, they're bugging me. i'll try to keep them in longer tomorrow.

[1moreandimfree]

i just got xbox live. my gamertag is bzachry if anyone wants to play fifa or madden

[FondestMemory]

speaking of walter, he was supposed to have a solo album a couple years ago. haven't heard anything about it.

he's awful at following through with anything.

he even agreed to let dine alone records release it, which was huge for them, considering their label is named after a song he wrote. he's seriously been working on that solo album for like six years.

every year he says it's gonna come out. every year it never comes out.

[larokr]

i use my 2 week contacts for like months at a time.

Yeah, I don't use them every day so they literally last for months. I usually just keep track how many days I wear them for, but I still end up using them more than 14 days.

oh ok. ya they didn't give me anything like that, i've only had them in for a couple hours but i'm going to take em out for the day, they're bugging me. i'll try to keep them in longer tomorrow.

Yeah, I'd say increase the number of hours you wear them by 1 or 2 a day - pretty sure that's how the sheet was set up for me.

yeah I know. I pay huge attention to anything distort/dine alone (AOF/Canadian fanboy) I remember my friend's band opened up for him here in ottawa 3 years ago. it was the same material. I'm willing to wait for him though.

Yea I've been wearing them for like 12 years now, but I can only wear the 1 day disposables. I sleep in them when I end up spending the night away from home, and it's not really a big deal. You also get used to the feeling and then you can't even tell that they are in there.

[QuikTrig]

whats the best way to take em out? my doctor told me to push into my eyeball and kinda pinch it out with my thumb and index, but it hurts like shit and makes my entire eye red. there's got to be an easier way.

I don't really push into my eyeball. I rest my index finger on my eye (basically just touch my eyeball) and use my thumb to help pinch it out, I guess you can say that. You don't have to push your eyeball that much, if at all, really.

[Broken Parachute]

You don't really need to push... usually you just touch your eyeball lightly, then slide the contact down a little bit, then after the slide it should make it easier to do the pinch.

[Scott Weber]

haha trig relax, they're going to suck for a few days. you'll get used to them.

[Broken Parachute]

Also...David Bazan @ Music Hall of Williamsburg. Teddy and Scott, you in?

[Scott Weber]

my love affair with david bazan is kind of over since I really didn't care for Curse Your Branches, and that's pretty much all he plays live now. Because of his change in religion he doesn't play most of my favorite songs.

[QuikTrig]

haha trig relax, they're going to suck for a few days. you'll get used to them.
ha i hope. i just spent 15 minutes trying to put them in and failed miserably, so i just gave up. i think the contacts are too big because they always hit my eyelid and flip back. i'm done with them for today.

Agony & Irony was disappointing, but Crimson, Good Mouring, and Infirmary still get constant plays from me. The new single is a step back into that direction.

I was told that I should have the album by the end of the week, so I'll share thoughts whenever that happens.

crimson is the worst thing they've released, in my opinion.

i'll admit, 90% of my trio listening still consists of maybe i'll catch fire and goddammit. i rarely listen to anything after infirmary.

good mourning and agony and irony were ok when they came out, but had no lasting power on me.

Man I love the moods and vibes in Crimson. Oh well!

i'm the same way. i HATED crimson outside of a song or two and had pretty high hopes for agony & irony but that fell short. good mourning was decent and i can still spin it every now and then, but everything up to/including infirmary gets the majority of my alkaline trio listening as well.

[aloneatlastnj]

Man I love the moods and vibes in Crimson. Oh well!

hahahaha. i just feel like crimson was the epitome of their whole eyeliner/makeup/outfits phase where it was more about the macabre imagery than anything else.

[Drew Beringer]

I also remember Crimson leaking like 2.5 months early in 2005, haha I was so stoked.

[aloneatlastnj]

i should also say RE: my previous post that they've always had that kind of imagery in their songs and merch and stuff, but i think starting with good mourning and continuing with crimson and the remains/scraps collections that they took it a bit too far.

this is an excellent example:

I actually think its cool...and if you have a large enough TV, it'd probably even be worth getting. My big concern is that, when movies do 3-d, they actively think through which elements come at you...I dont think a live TV broadcast can really do that, so there will be some confusing plays and even some stuff that would be disorienting.

I'd actually rather see it in a theater in 3-d, for that arena environment

[guccimaneburrrr]

the cowboys putting the 3rd quarter of the chargers/cowboys game in 3d on the jumbotron in dallas was fucking retarded. everybody watched the 3d action on the jumbotron instead of the 3d action going on 100 feet below it.

Then you are looking for screen resolution, ram/memory, and a fast CPU. My suggestion would be to go to Slickdeals, find different laptops and then basically google the computer itself and the processor. You'll find some really great deals there...it'll just take a little work

I'd recommend a Mac, but the price range you are looking for isn't worth it for you...the new MacBook Pro is what all the developers and graphics people in my office use and love, but its also way overpriced unless you have an education or work discount, or its provided to you. The Macbook doesn't have the speed or resolution you want

true, though those type of people don't care if you're making fun of them....they think that tweezing your eyebrows, having cut abs and a fresh blowout is the pinnacle of humanity
