  1. Because our regular uniforms are classics? We are winning and fun to watch. Who gives a shit what we are wearing?
  2. I think any of us could get this type of performance out of this squad. At least if Arsenal make a change now, we wouldn't have to worry that they'd end up with Mourinho.
  3. I hope "Stone" isn't a nickname for how good his hands are. Has he committed yet?
  4. My guess is that it is the flavor of DVD you have, versus what your HP's player supports. I'm a little surprised that this issue still exists. https://www.lifewire.com/different-types-of-dvd-recorders-2482957
  5. Don't forget Missy's mention of having two people of color wearing immunity necklaces. We can't have a tribal without some relevance to real life issues.
  6. That's my concern as well. It's very Skim Pickens already. That said, I found both of last night's eliminations to be rather satisfying, and kudos to worthless Karishma for reading the situation well enough to not play her idol and for voting to send home the bigger threat. She should be safe at this point, as people seem to have caught on that they can use her vote and that she'd be great to take to Final Tribal. I think Elaine and Janet have the best resumes at this point. Tommy, Elizabeth, and Dean should be the next targets if they want to continue eliminating challenge beasts, but who knows what this cast of Mehs will do?
  7. I think Luka alone changes the landscape a bit. The most memorable free agency failures came when we were frantically trying to keep a closing window propped open...or to reopen it. The city of Dallas is never going to have the pull of NYC or LA, but for solid players who don't care about the spotlight and who want to play with other solid players who still have more than a decade of prime, maybe the Mavs look better than they have in the past. Even if that isn't the case, Carlisle has shown that he can win it all with one superstar and a good supporting cast. That cast is obviously still a work in progress, as is the superstar. It's going to be fun watching this team evolve. I really hope Luka has Dirk's "Mavs forever" trait. It may be extinct in today's NBA.
  8. Why would he need to go back to the future to say that?
  9. Usually power supplies either work or they don't, but I have had one behave like yours. It may be dying a slow death or is only marginally capable of putting out enough watts to power your rig. This would explain why it can power your peripherals, but only occasionally generates enough juice to start your system. I would order a new one that is rated for 50-100 watts more than you need. I prefer Corsair or Seasonic. Do not buy generic unless you want to replace it again in a year or so.
  10. You are tying your optimism to a player who did well in a game that we lost? Spiffy! I hate to break it to you, but we only get a win if we have the most points at the END of the game.
  11. No, it would not have been better if Rob and Sandra had been integrated into the tribes. You are correct in that the best option would have been to leave them out entirely. I keep hoping that the boat driver gets lost on the way to the island.

    Austin FC

    Would the Dynamo give them up? I think San Antonio makes the most sense if the Bold is a non-starter, assuming NYC can be persuaded to find someone closer to them.
  13. Also, what worked for Rob and Sandra years ago likely would not work now. There are just way more good players now who are willing to take risks and make big moves and hunt for idols. Sandra's strategy might get her far, but someone would out her for her "behind the scenes manipulation" bs and blindside her.
  14. It means that the producers really fucked up with the twist this season, and that I am more certain with each episode that I am going to hate next season even more than this one.
  15. That's exactly what happened. Once Jamal grabbed the note, he lost his vote...stupid lame shit that is a result of trying too hard to make Island of the Idols meaningful. It would not have made any difference in the outcome of the vote, so at least there is that. Whether the ridiculous legacy "advantage" given to Dean impacts anything remains to be seen.
  16. "Look at Survivor...see how edgy and relevant we are? LOOK AT US!! LOOK AT US!!" Dan is a smarmy piece of shit. He and his enablers sicken me. I've lost all respect for Missy and Elizabeth. Fuck Dean for not telling Kellee she was being targeted after she saved his ass, but at least I can respect the play. Aaron is an oblivious idiot. Why the hell do they keep targeting Karishma? Zero threat to win immunity, and even less of a threat to win the game. I didn't always like his preachy preachy, but Jamal is good people. I wish him well. All aboard Team Janet, which likely means she will go home next.
  17. I love a well deserved "I told you so" as much as the next guy, but you need to work on the timing. Three games into the season is just a teeny bit premature, much like your experience with South Austin's mom. Feel free to come back in March and tell us so again.
