  - No, he's right. One amazing game is much better than a season of excellence. -- nm - Reagen Nov 7, 10:58 2
    - Just because because Cam is having the greatest rookie season ever for a QB doesn't make him rookie of the year. -- nm - Inigo Nov 7, 11:04

The thing about the PA child case that confounds me is this - the Catholic priests scandals happened mid 80's and on through the 90's - very much in - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 10:38 18
- I don't really think the organizition supplied his victims; his own foundation did that. -- nm - mara Nov 7, 10:45 3
  - yep - that's what I meant - not the school - but the at risk kids organization (sorry to confuse) -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 10:47 2

      - oooo casino night volunteering is a blast -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 10:50 3
        
        you're missing the point completely. COMPLETELY. "jen, an organization for which you volunteer electrocultes puppies." - amanda Nov 7, 10:51 2
        
        oh frack ... *light bulb over head* crikey - sorry Amanda - totally missed it. -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 10:58 1

- Just using your example.... the Catholic Church still exists, right? - Will Hunting Nov 7, 10:40 4
  - I hate to admit but I have no idea what penatties or fines they paid :( or if any priests did time. -- nm - BroDuckJen Nov 7, 10:43 2

- You'll find those anywhere out there; stay at some place modest and you'll still be fine. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 7, 10:43 3
  - but they want to be centrally located right? -- nm - Andie Nov 7, 10:53 2
    - probably. I' mean, STers don't mind being a bit outside in the quiet, enjoy the culture and museums .. - marcel Nov 7, 10:59
    - MGM Grand, Mirage would both match - Will Hunting Nov 7, 10:58

  - I think this might actually break huge. -- nm - Reagen Nov 7, 10:45 1
    - I left my earbuds at home (I know, I'm also furious) but considering the way Tyler's album popped... - TFox Nov 7, 10:46
Patriots: 1) Sunday's game isn't exactly a must-win, but..... 2) The total lack of a downfield threat is killing them (among other things) - prayformojo Nov 7, 10:21 12
- The Pats DBs should be arrested for fraud. - Mel Profit Nov 7, 10:33

    - he's not a lock this week yet, is he? -- nm - TFox Nov 7, 10:36 4
      - He needs 20.6 pts from Forte and Bears DEF to win. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 10:39 3
        
        I would say more likely than not, but not a lock. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 10:40 2
        
        And this is why I am better than you. :-) -- nm - budice Nov 7, 10:41 1
        
        See you in the Playoffs. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 10:43
- down field threat is over rated. Their pass defense still sucks ass. I love watching Belichick lose. -- nm - CQ with a gravy boat Nov 7, 10:23
- if Chung is hurt they will be signing people off the street to play corner and safety -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:22 1
  - oh wait, they already are... -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:23
- It might help if, oh, I don't know... Ocho Cinco and Tom Brady attend the same practice? -- nm - Spawn Nov 7, 10:22

  - I bet you did. :) -- nm - znufrii Nov 7, 10:47
Mop, Curley and Shultz aren't under arrest for failure to report, but for lying to investigators. -- nm - mara Nov 7, 10:17 7
- I'm guessing mop's lie was that he told investigators that he *did* check dr. tron first -- nm - dogbert Nov 7, 10:20 1
  - So long as there are no lies involving cake (or pie), I'm good. -- nm - Mop on Macbook Air Nov 7, 10:40
- this new Three Stooges movie took a freaking odd casting turn -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:18 2
  - Leave it to the Farrelly Brothers to cast me in the lead. -- nm - Mop on Macbook Air Nov 7, 10:19 1
    - the German Guard from Hogan's Heroes will prove to be an inspired choice I think -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:20
- Ah. I just like to see heroes go down. Charge Paterno for failure to report! -- nm - Mop on Macbook Air Nov 7, 10:18 1
  - Ah, actually, it's both. -- (link) - mara Nov 7, 10:18
Yeah, so we're actually still watching Glee. I commented after last week's episode, of all the people on the show, there is really only 1 good person - Jim Nov 7, 10:15 6
- Ditto. And (this is like "I read Playboy for the articles) it's not so much that she's pretty, it's her phenomenal ability to move. - Max Nov 7, 10:48
- I told myself that I should check it out after figuring out who was that girl dancing around in the Staples commercial. -- nm - zork Nov 7, 10:24 2
  - it's been a downhill slide since the pilot really -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:24 1
    - Yep. The pilot was gold. And a pretty direct ripoff of 'Election', but with some singing. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Nov 7, 10:25
- I like Mychal Rivera's sister, whoever she is. - David Nov 7, 10:18 1
  - Actually...I find her hotter than Heather Morris. And she has the awesome attitude to boot. -- nm - Jim Nov 7, 10:20
You Totally Don't Care, yet Not for Nothin': After going 0-10 2 years ago, Georgetown (7-2) will play for the Patriot League title on Saturday - prayformojo Nov 7, 10:15
ok, I think Beaker is talking about Sons of Guns. Groiny might be talking about a different show. -- nm - zork Nov 7, 10:14
zork.....17....... -- (link) - groiny Nov 7, 10:14 1
- ahh, different show. Sons of Guns is the one I watch (highly recommend for gun fans) -- nm - Beaker Nov 7, 10:15
Best post on B2 -- (link) - prayformojo Nov 7, 10:12 [Backboard] 4

On a happier note, that was an amazing Parks & Rec this week. - Reagen Nov 7, 10:12 21
- I just started this season, and it's on my must list, every week. Crying Batman (a few weeks back) was inspired. -- nm - Mop on Macbook Air Nov 7, 10:27
- I like that show. It has a refreshing lack of stock/stereotypey characters. - con_carne Nov 7, 10:22 7

  - She doesn't do much for me most of the time - Will Hunting Nov 7, 10:23 4
    - Her new haircut this season was startling in how much it improved her overall attractiveness. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Nov 7, 10:26
    - Her looks are fine, but it's her attitude that I find weirdly appealing. -- nm - con_carne Nov 7, 10:25 2
      - when the cameras "catch" her looking happy and her quickly changing expressions once she notices = so hot -- nm - dogbert Nov 7, 10:34 1
        
        Yup -- nm - con_carne Nov 7, 10:47
- This week? -- nm - Spawn Nov 7, 10:21 4
  - more than usual. -- nm - Reagen Nov 7, 10:49 3
    - Last week. -- nm - Spawn Nov 7, 10:53 2
      - OK, loosi. -- nm - Reagen Nov 7, 10:57 1
        
        That's not how you're supposed to watch that -- nm - Spawnsi Nov 7, 10:59
- it was as if that was just a little too much stupid for her. - Jovian Nov 7, 10:17
- Yeah, it's quickly become my favorite of the NBC Thursday lineup. - Will Hunting Nov 7, 10:14 4
  - This LITRALLY makes me want to cry. - kelly Nov 7, 10:25
