I think there's at least one significant flaw in ESPN's new QB rating. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 10:56 2
- figure YAC shouldn't be a factor. -- nm - budice Aug 6, 11:42 1
  - So, you think the QB should only get credited with the yards between his hands and the receivers? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 6, 12:03
I really want to do laundry but my very talkative landlord is here working. It'd take me three days to do one load. -- nm - amanda Aug 6, 10:55 1

Ah, geez. Some members of SEAL Team 6 died on that flight. -- nm - nubby Aug 6, 10:46 6
- none of them from the Osama raid -- (link) - Remlik Aug 6, 11:20 1
  - How would they know? They make a point of not saying who ever did what or even what squads. -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 6, 11:25
- Twenty of them, apparently. -- nm - nubby Aug 6, 10:48 3
  - Cue the conspiracy theorists. "Why'd the government need to kill them? What did they know?" -- nm - TWuG Aug 6, 11:05 2
    - This would be a good way to hide identities of the seal team 6 members. Stage a crash and say all were killed. - Bacon Aug 6, 11:15 1
      - It's a shame they never made a movie like that. -- nm - nubby Aug 6, 11:21

- It seems to be going around suddenly for some reason. -- nm - nubby Aug 6, 10:06
- So un-add yourself. -- nm - TWuG Aug 6, 10:00 3
  - I might.... - Remlik Aug 6, 10:20 2
    - Create a page for the station You and join the group with that. - TWuG Aug 6, 10:27 1
      - it's enough that I run 2 FB pages, I'm not doing 3. though not a bad idea. -- nm - Remlik Aug 6, 11:17

  - They should have stuck with the book style a bit more, but I understand it.. - Spawn Aug 6, 08:40 3
    - the full body costume is the same as the book, but yeah the helmet thing she wears is gone -- nm - Remlik Aug 6, 08:41 2
      - I can understand wanting the hair to flow. They just overcompensated with the eye gear. - Spawn Aug 6, 08:54 1
        
        yeah I agree. Simpler googles that can do all that stuff would have been much better. -- nm - Remlik Aug 6, 09:08
  - I mean the goggles -- nm - amoxy Aug 6, 08:21 1
    - I wonder if she can shoot friggin' laser beams from those bad boys. -- nm - Diva Aug 6, 08:23

        Was the CGI good? - Spawn Aug 6, 09:09 1
        
        It was spotty. There were definitely instances where it stood out as not so good mixed in with pretty good CGI in general. -- nm - Dano Aug 6, 09:21
    - this -- nm - OAE Aug 6, 08:33 1
      - and the set up for a sequel is pretty obvious (spoilers) - Dano Aug 6, 08:55

      - The Canadian coast guard uses them for SARTech operations, iirc -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Aug 6, 08:45 2

        sweden does the same it's steady and can carry many at the same time - Danedukenuuk Aug 6, 11:04
