  2. It is a rudimentary revenge story, but with enough twists to intrigue and suck you in. By episode 5 and 6 when it really delivers, you will forgive it anything because it has you so engrossed. I can't believe how stunning it was, almost like it had a master cinematographer in a real-life film. After I watched it, I looked up the cast and realized another reason it was so good. Maya Erskine as Mizu, a mixed-race blue-eyed rōnin. Masi Oka as Ringo, a sheltered, disabled cook who idolizes Mizu. Darren Barnet as Taigen, a promising but arrogant swordsman of humble origins. Brenda Song as Princess Akemi, the pampered but strong-willed daughter of a nouveau riche lord. George Takei as Seki, Princess Akemi's tutor. Randall Park as Heiji Shindo, Fowler's nominal jailor and accomplice. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Swordfather, a blind blacksmith who raised Mizu. Kenneth Branagh as Abijah Fowler, an Irish smuggler and inventor who is allied with the Shogun, Tokugawa Ietsuna in secret defiance of Japan's Sakoku closed-door policies.

  6. Blue Eye Samurai that dropped Nov. 3rd, is anyone else watching this? It is a visually stunning animation about a revenge story. It is super violent and it looks so well cheographed that I would forget it is animation at times. The fighting is good but occasionally very John Wickish in that you have to suspend belief on how the hero triumphs but it is very entertaining and well paced. I didn't mean to binge it but I did. Now I have to hope for a season 2.
  7. Everyone wants to blacken our eye and have permanent scoreboard over us. That is the reality of the rest of the games we walk into against beatable teams. I'm glad that this young team believes in each other and haven't shown quit. The DB and QB play are their weakness that they've managed to mitigate to date. I just hope they can keep it up. I thought last Saturday that we had lost the game but we stayed in it and the other coach blinked and made a bonehead decision that helped hand their team a loss. I think these Horns will stay in and fight. I am going to trust that and though we have flaws, we don't have quit. That can get you wins.
  8. This is not what he is doing. He has said it himself that he believes in his team to execute the play. He puts it on them to go and make it for the sense of "us". But what you say is right. Pump the brakes on this philosophy and take the more conservative approach when they are more tired. I don't know if he or the team will change this though. He and this team seem to want to play to win and not to "not lose". But with all the possibilities that they have at this point in the season, I sure as hell wish they would be more prudent. Take the fucking points and keep playing hard to hold the win.
  9. I don't know, Slorch. Lots of us had alcoholic dads that embarrassed us from time to time. But they were there and stayed and maybe that was good. We've all got our crosses to carry. Good luck, William! Hope you like golf.

  11. UCLA is old school with their band in their games too. It is nice.
  12. That dirty Bama player that hurt Ewers just hurt LSU's QB, Daniels. Dude is fast and kinda good so I guess that made Turner want to kill him. Fuck that guy.
  13. I just switched over. Do these teams have any defense?
  14. First horse collar they called...didn't call it when they pulled Daniels down that way. Whatevs.
  15. Wow. That was the nail in the coffin.
  16. What was going on there? Why were they pointing and shit? Just hike the fucking ball and run the play.
  17. Kool-Aid McKinsty Lil Jordan Humphrey says HI!!!
  18. That was catchable! That is bullshit.
  19. Daniels is fast. Too bad the fatties fucked up.
  20. They didn't call the horsecollar. Shit, TD anyway.
