  1. What are the Falcons doing? $180 million for Kirk Cousins?!? Kirk Cousins is Derek Carr without the gayliner.
  2. The NFL draft combines have begun. The draft is next month. Will Chicago trade their #1 pick or blow it on another quarterback bust? Is Caleb Williams really "the guy"? So yes, Rick...it's time for a new thread for the upcoming NFL season. And, confirming that the Denver trade for Russell Wilson is the worst trade in history, the Broncos cut Wilson and will eat a massive cap shit sandwich. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39654399/broncos-cut-russell-wilson-take-85m-dead-money-hit
  3. Is there any movie Christopher Walken does not make better simply by being in it? I had to babysit the other night and the kid demanded to watch "The Country Bears", a movie I never bothered to see when it was first released and have managed to avoid all these years. Amid the mind-numbing dullness, lo and behold, Christopher Walken appears to save the movie from total boredom.
  4. Cool. The longest I ever rode was a 1200-mile trek from La Crescenta to Mt. Shasta and back.
  5. Redrum, you're a man of adventure. What's the longest road trip you've ever rode on your hog?
  6. Thanks guys. I saw your other posts and I set up my dvr to record it.
  7. Welcome to March! Spring is coming at last. Unless you live Down Under.
  8. Life is too short and besides, it's the weekend. Why ruin a good weekend with politics?
  9. I have been watching the new season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and wondering when Richard Lewis was going to show up. Last night I watched episode 3 and there he was for the first time. Of all things, Richard and Larry David were arguing about who was going to outlive the other. In the context of his passing yesterday, the scene hit hard. R.I.P. Richard Lewis.
  10. Ah, you're right. It's hard to tell sometimes...especially with someone I am not familiar with, as KnightsofNi is fairly new here. The death of real music journalism and the rise of bullshit clickbait music sites means there are an awful lot of articles being written in the vein of "X says this about Y" and you find out the writer (a more accurate description would be 'cut + paster') has taken old quotes from ages ago out of context and passed them off as current news. Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin have enough baggage to deal with without adding made-up beefs into the mix.
  11. Actually, we do know. Who told you this rumor? It's absolute bollocks. Eric Clapton and Duane Allman played guitar on the 1970 "Layla" recording. Full stop.
  12. Hahaha. Too true. I burned my mouth on these molten things a couple of times when I was a kid.
  13. Keep your eye on the kid in the red that takes off. The angry old coot in the scooter that shows up later is a hoot.
  14. Good grief. Give it a rest. Do you really think people such as Paul, Bong-Man, Josemanno, Reggie, etc. don't know how to inform themselves and pick through minefields of bias that are out there? Stop treating rational adults as if they were children just because you don't agree with them. You accuse other people of being a "parrot", yet you're the one who sounds most like a parrot. Every single talking point of the wingnut-right fringe you regurgitate ad nauseam. The fact is both Biden and Trump have serious issues. The only people who cannot see Trump's problems and why he is unfit for office are the ones gargling his nuts so deep they cannot see the forest for the trees. The Democrats and Republicans both seem determined to drive this country off the rails if Biden and Trump are the only choices they can offer this country.
  15. Just make sure you have working internet, tv, dvd player and the complete seasons of "Bewitched", "The Three Stooges", "Twilight Zone", "Batman", "Bonanza", "Star Trek", "The Avengers", "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.", "The Mod Squad", "Mannix", "Mission Impossible", "Columbo", and "The Little Rascals/Our Gang".
  16. Now that football season is over I have more time to go to the movies. This past weekend's pleasures at the Vista and the American Cinematheque.
  17. Aye, another one of the lads gone. R.I.P. Paul Martinez.
