- "All that said� it was okay. It�s probably the best of the Marvel-made Marvel movies, though I prefer Captain America up until the very end" - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:37 9
  - are you arguing that the end of Cap Am was good? Or that IM was the best? - colin May 1, 12:39 8
    - Prefering any part of Cap to any part of any other Mavel movie is suspect. Calling it the best is nuts. - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:40 7
      - At the very least you need to put it ahead of X3 and Spider-Man 3. - the wrong element, bad guy May 1, 12:45 1
        
        Agreed. Just saying, only a Cap *fan* could come close to saying it was the best. - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:47
      - ida know, Stanley Tucci was pretty great in that movie.. but yeah, not so much. - colin May 1, 12:42 4

        i swear i saw scene from Transformers 3 in the latest trailers. - colin May 1, 12:49 1
        
        Yup. I mean, for a reviewer to state he has high hopes for it pretty much makes me think he is nuts. - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:53
- fwiw, some non-critics in the UK that I follow in various places saw it last night and thought it was great. -- nm - b. May 1, 12:35
- of course he said that -- nm - Remlik May 1, 12:33 9
  - FWIW, Edwin has a review up today and I think he loved it more than you did. -- nm - David May 1, 12:34 5

- No disrespect to Popovich, but it should have gone to Thibs again. Best record in the league with the reigning MVP missing nearly half the games, - pmb May 1, 12:45
- In all the hype, the Veterans got it done. Overlooked all year, for my money San Anton is the team to beat. -- nm - The Incredible Budice May 1, 12:37
B2: the end of House last night was hilarious -- nm - Beaker May 1, 12:20 3

Here is my music question. Which song from that top 100 list is your favorite? - David May 1, 12:19 69

- L.A. Woman -- nm - Krusty May 1, 12:50 1
  - Followed by Sweet Child O' Mine. - Krusty May 1, 12:52
- Biggest bands missing from the List: Jethro Tull, U2 -- nm - amoxy May 1, 12:38 10
  - for U2, I thought they must not have fit the category. remind me, please? -- nm - b. May 1, 12:46 4
    - henley was in eagles? timing...lets see dylan's rolling stone was early 60's? U2 seemed to fit the kind of stuff listed - zeitgeist May 1, 12:53
    - Classic rock. And Metallica made the list, so U2 is a startling oversight. -- nm - Roger More May 1, 12:51 2
      - I just found the link. "classic" changes over time; but, really looking, now I'm even more "eh" about the list. - b. May 1, 12:54 1
        
        wikipedia has it be the radio format -- album driven from early 60s to early 80s... - b. May 1, 12:57
  - Nirvana -- nm - zeitgeist May 1, 12:44
  - Grateful Dead are also not there -- nm - peglegpete May 1, 12:40 1
    - most of the songs were SHOUT IT OUT hard driving head banging rock and none of the GD tunes really qualify - zeitgeist May 1, 12:48
  - Something I'd like to see is which U2 song they were judging against this list. -- nm - David May 1, 12:39 1
    - The problem is, I don't think they were. - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:45
- More Than A Feeling, Sunshine Of Your Love, You Really Got Me -- nm - TFox May 1, 12:37
- I'm going to pick #19 and #62 as the best driving music. -- nm - Dr.Vermin May 1, 12:36
- the song whose number is the same as the amount of keys on a piano -- nm - peglegpete May 1, 12:34 1
  - If you didn't already have a handicap I'd... -- nm - oblique May 1, 12:36
- Stranglehold -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 12:34
- A day in the life or fortunate son. -- nm - kelly May 1, 12:34
- the problem is, the particular song chosen for the band might not be the one - zeitgeist May 1, 12:30 16
  - I missed that listed. I give up on choosing. -- nm - b. May 1, 12:34
  - Almost went with that one -- nm - con_carne May 1, 12:32
  - I had this problem with The Cars choice. -- nm - Mel Profit May 1, 12:31 13
    - The Van Halen choice wouldn't make my top 10 from them. -- nm - David May 1, 12:32 12
      - But dancing cheeseburgers! - Kim Pine May 1, 12:37 3
        
        I can't not picture that when I hear the song. - the wrong element, bad guy May 1, 12:41
        
        I sure love my baby's poundcake. - David May 1, 12:38 1
        
        My favorite is Finish What You Started. - Kim Pine May 1, 12:40
      - (And I think we both agree they picked the wrong Elton John song.) -- nm - David May 1, 12:35 7
        
        how iconic has Tiny Dancer become? - Mel Profit May 1, 12:41 2
        
        agreed -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 12:44
        
        At least for us. -- nm - David May 1, 12:43
        
        there was an Elton song in there? -- nm - Epiphany May 1, 12:36 3
        
        #37 -- nm - David May 1, 12:37
        
        37. rocket man -- nm - b. May 1, 12:37 1

- Photograph -- nm - con_carne May 1, 12:26
- Why the hell is Baba O Reilly in the top 100? -- nm - Beryllium May 1, 12:25 11
  - It's one of their best songs. My question is Why in the Hell is "Don't Stop Believin" in the list at all - amoxy May 1, 12:29 4
    - Right or wrong, it's become one of the most seminal rock songs ever made. - David May 1, 12:31 1
      - It's become a song for the "woo girls" -- nm - con_carne May 1, 12:35
    - Seperate Ways was bigger here. Everybody Wants Some is big in the deep south. -- nm - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:30
    - "There has to be a Journey song we haven't done yet" -- nm - oblique May 1, 12:29
  - Uh, because it belongs to be there but more like in the top 5. -- nm - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:29
  - you're too young, you never got wasted -- nm - zeitgeist May 1, 12:28 4
    - I've never done the latter, but it is an awesome/cathartic singalong song. (b. trivia! ahead) - b. May 1, 12:32 3
      - I dunno, I prefer Eminence Front -- nm - Beryllium May 1, 12:44 2
        
        But that would be like them picking the song Domino for Kiss. - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:55
        
        That song is dooope -- nm - con_carne May 1, 12:47
- Going by which one I would choose to listen to most frequently, it's a toss up between Jack & Diane and Sweet Child O' Mine - oblique May 1, 12:24
- I think maybe The Joker. -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 12:24
- of those.. some of the comparisons are odd. maybe baba o'riley or imagine? -- nm - b. May 1, 12:22

- Born to Run -- nm - CQ May 1, 12:22 1
  - ditto -- nm - Beaker May 1, 12:26

  - 38 and 99 also have special places in my heart. -- nm - Strongbad May 1, 12:26
- of those, Photograph -- nm - pixitude May 1, 12:22 1
  - Heh. -- nm - con_carne May 1, 12:27
- Upon reflection, Enter Sandman is mine followed by All Along the Watchtower and Gimme Shelter. - David May 1, 12:21 1
  - Heh, Enter Sandman is my third. -- nm - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:22
- Gimme Shelter or More Than a Feeling -- nm - Iron Spawn May 1, 12:21

- Another way Canadians are better than Americans. -- nm - Mop (198 lbs) May 1, 12:27
- I wonder if it starts out at an inaudible pitch on the american side but then becomes audible when it gets converted to metric -- nm - Beryllium May 1, 12:24
- we can't help it if we are physically superior specimens. -- nm - Andie May 1, 12:21 1
  - i bet all the Americans really can hear it but agreed to pretend not to just to drive the Canadian size crazy - pixitude May 1, 12:23
Atlanta will have the most cap space of any NFL team in 2012. We just received a $3 million cap credit for the Vick fiasco. -- nm - David May 1, 12:17
[flushes Don Homer' -- nm - Dr.Vermin, oncologist May 1, 12:16
[deleted] 5
- yeah, they worked out a deal with Msoft to give it to the 360 30 days before releasing on PS3 -- nm - decline May 1, 12:21
- Because the PS3 version keeps crashing before you could reach the dlc. - the wrong element, bad guy May 1, 12:21 3
  - *hand wave* Nothing to see here. -- nm - Sony May 1, 12:23 2
    - Yes, because the PS3 has had that problem with so many other games. - the wrong element, bad guy May 1, 12:31
