  - Are you the guy losing to RC? -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:47 3
    - Yes. But now Matt Ryan will get me the 20 points I need to win. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:48 2
      - Scratch that. 3 and out so Manning can win me BF. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:50 1
        
        sweet -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:51
- JFields -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:45

- this could be worth it -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 17, 20:50
PASS PASS PASS -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:44 1

Oh come on Ryen, you already beat me in one league so stay in and help me win another! -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:40
A friend of mine has a code for Torchlight 1 he'd like to give away, if anyone is interested -- nm - Beryllium Sep 17, 20:40
I'd say Denver is within a TD with 6 mins to go -- nm - budice Sep 17, 20:40
QBR: Somethin's wrong when Andrew Luck has the highest rating -- nm - budice Sep 17, 20:38
The entire board is fired for failing to mention Psy cameo on SNL -- nm - Epiphany Sep 17, 20:37 6
- x -- nm - prayformojo Sep 19, 12:18
- On my DVR but I have not had a chance to watch it yet. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:42
- here -- (link) - Remlik Sep 17, 20:41 [youtube] 1
  - Gracias -- nm - Epiphany Sep 17, 20:52
- Pretty sure it's not worth watching SNL even for a Psy cameo. -- nm - Qale Sep 17, 20:39 1
  - it isn't -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 20:40
RT @the_ironsheik The Peyton panic too much. He need to take it easy bubba -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 20:37 4
- @PeytonsHead #MNF Holy sh*t! There's the goal line. I can almost touch it! -- nm - budice Sep 17, 20:38
- His Brother was able to bring HIS team back. Can Peyton do it or is he just Brother's little beotch? -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:38 2
  - 1. It's beyotch. or be-yotch. Not beotch. 2. It's not 2006. -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 20:40 1
    - You are all three! -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:42
Once again: baseball rule question! Forced play at 2nd, defensive player falls, grabs the ball with his hand and tag 2nd base with his (empty) glove - Guigue Sep 17, 20:33 16
- force play you can touch the base with a glove/hand. you can't tag a guy with an empty glove -- nm - dogbert Sep 17, 20:42 4
  - I said the defensive player touches the base, not the player (obviously before the players gets to the base) -- nm - Guigue Sep 17, 20:45 3
    - I was talking about the fielder too. the runner is out on a force play no matter what part of the filder's body touches the base including an empty - dogbert Sep 17, 20:48 2
      - Then we agree - Guigue Sep 17, 20:49 1
        
        right, the runner is out -- nm - dogbert Sep 17, 20:50
- From what I found so far, you guys would appear to be... wrong! - Guigue Sep 17, 20:39 7
  - You can step on the base for a force with the ball in your hand or your glove, but for a tag, it has to be the ball. - Reagen Sep 17, 20:42 6
    - That's not what I'm finding. There's no mention of the foot, it says "body" - Guigue Sep 17, 20:44 5
      - Inherent in that is that the glove must have the ball in it. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 20:46 3
        
        Maybe I'm not clear enough. At that point, the defensive player has the ball firmly in his right hand, the glove on the base, and the runner is forced - Guigue Sep 17, 20:48 2
        
        No, you were perfectly clear. - Reagen Sep 17, 20:50 1
        
        So now I'm sure I was robbed tonight. Dammit! :) Now I'm all dirty for nothing - Guigue Sep 17, 20:51
      - (The word tag seems to refer to both touching a player and touching a base) -- nm - Guigue Sep 17, 20:44
- not has to tag with hand holding ball. -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 20:35
- NOT -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:34
- Not. -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:34
PASS IT! -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:33 4
- AGAIN! -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:34 3
  - AGAIN! -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:34 1
    - *sigh* - Spawn Sep 17, 20:35
  - To Tamme! -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:34
And another injury delay. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:31 1
- I went to see RESE5 as they kicked off, and just tuned in -- nm - budice Sep 17, 20:34
We have now reached the end of MNF's scheduled time. -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:28 1
- Yeah, I was going to play Halo and still get to bed early. - Spawn Sep 17, 20:29
How bad was Noesi? The Mariners brought in Oliver Perez to stop the bleeding. - Will Hunting Sep 17, 20:24 2
- Bloody Noesi? -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:26 1
  - That mean man tackled me!!! -- nm - Alex Smith Sep 17, 20:37
GET STOKED! -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:22
Okay Manning, lets see the comeback power. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:21 2
- It'll be some nice garbage time points at least...Denver should finish above 20pts -- nm - budice Sep 17, 20:32
- come on laserrocketarm, lil` bro scored 25 pts in the 4Q yest. And he gave up 3 INTs in the 1st half too! -- nm - mud Sep 17, 20:29
Anybody want to be a Bering Sea Gold Dregger? -- (link) - zeitgeist Sep 17, 20:14
J-U-L-I-O. J-U-L-I-O. J-U-L-I-O. - Spawn Sep 17, 20:14
Now I understand the Browder talk. -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 20:12
Apparently Mitt is here in the O.C. tonight. -- (link) - Meg Sep 17, 20:07 4
- Don't worry if Mitt goes missing tonight, I have your back. You were right here on the ST all night. - Under the Influence Sep 17, 20:36 1
  - Hmm...guess I shouldn't go for the photo-op package then :/ -- nm - Meg Sep 17, 20:47
- Don't call it that. -- nm - Michael Bluth Sep 17, 20:10
- You can go get your handout in person! -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 20:09
TDS just made the same joke WWDTM did this weekend. -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:05 3

  - spoiler - nubby Sep 17, 20:12 1
    - heh. -- nm - Tim Sep 17, 20:13
"Diablo III: Lots of loot. | Torchlight II: Insane craploads of loot." Interestingly, this makes me question if I want Torchlight 2. - Qale Sep 17, 20:02 4
- Well in Diablo 3 99% of it is garbage anyway. -- nm - Tim Sep 17, 20:04 3
  - Ho ho ho! Hyperbole on the internets! -- nm - Qale Sep 17, 20:05 2
    - Fine. 98%. -- nm - Tim Sep 17, 20:07 1
      - Well regardless, it's quite easy to tell what items are upgrades in D3. In Torchlight, not so much. It's definitely more for number crunchers. -- nm - Qale Sep 17, 20:10
Pass the ball to Julio. - Spawn Sep 17, 20:01 5
- No Julio, no Julio, no Julio, no Manning, no Manning, no Manning, no Roddy, no Roddy, no Roddy! -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:04 2
  - I picture you saying this doing the Cabbage Patch Dance. -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:07 1
    - No Julio! No Julio! No! No! No Julio! It's your birthday! No Julio! -- nm - nubby Sep 17, 20:11
- He's down by the Schoolyard -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:02
- Thank you. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:02
if I was wealthy I would pay the regular refs double what they made to never go back. let the nfl reap what they have sown -- nm - dogbert Sep 17, 20:01
NFL is not protecting the shield. Roger Goodell your product looks like SHIT! -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 20:00
re: Remlik's b2 link, that is totally awesome. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 19:59 2
- Remlik surfs some pretty... odd sites, though. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:13 1
  - I do so I can bring you the good stuf! -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 20:26
Revolution spoiler - nubby Sep 17, 19:59
Margaret is such an odd movie. I can see how one could become obsessed with it. There's so much in it. -- nm - Dano Sep 17, 19:59 3
- Never heard of it. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:05
- I want to see the extended cut now. -- nm - Dano Sep 17, 20:02
- so much sexy, you mean. -- nm - Max Sep 17, 20:01
Bad Netflix streak continues: Machine Gun Preacher -- nm - MDH Sep 17, 19:58 7
- And with that title, you had such high hopes -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 20:02 1
  - I can't believe the guy let them make this movie. From the movie (haven't read the book) he's a huge a-hole. -- nm - MDH Sep 17, 20:04
- yup -- nm - Max Sep 17, 20:01 4
  - We've had similar ratings the last few, is my streak going to continue? "Mirror Mirror" arrived today... -- nm - MDH Sep 17, 20:02 3
    - I might actually have that one on DVD (unopened. Actually, no, I think it's "Mesmorized") -- nm - Beryllium Sep 17, 20:07
    - I'm sorry. -- nm - Dano Sep 17, 20:02 1
      - 15 minutes in, and it's AWFUL. -- nm - MDH Sep 17, 20:39
That's Eddie Money? yeesh, that's more embarrassing than David Lee Roth. -- nm - Max Sep 17, 19:54 5
- I was scared. -- nm - Epiphany Sep 17, 20:36
- I'm pretty sure that ad is the first work he's gotten since 1994. -- nm - Tim Sep 17, 19:55 3
  - That's just what Ronnie said -- nm - Bacon Sep 17, 19:56 2
    - Be my little baby... -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 19:59 1
      - nmbl -- (link) - rollo Sep 17, 20:02 [youtube]
he got the happy feet. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 19:53
"Romney avail called so hastily I had to literally sprint there. First Q was asked by a reporter wearing jean shorts, who begs anonymity" .. hahah -- nm - Beryllium Sep 17, 19:44 40
- And here is Gov. Romney's final comment of the evening -- (link) - amoxy Sep 17, 20:28 1
  - oh ...........my ...............Gawd! -- nm - mud Sep 17, 20:35
- Huh, no mention on FOX News website -- (link) - amoxy Sep 17, 19:57 5
  - According to Brian Stelter of NYT, Fox hadn't mentioned the video at all* but played Romney's comments about the video at 10:21pm ET - ty97 Sep 17, 19:59
  - Mel just turned to Fox to see what they were reporting. They were discussing a suicide bombing in Afghanistan and Ryan Lochte. -- nm - Diva Sep 17, 19:59 3
    - man, you can convince him to do *anything*. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 20:00 1
      - I'll so anything for love, even watch Fox. -- nm - Mel Profit Sep 17, 20:14
    - I'd like to suicide bomb Ryan Lochte, if you know what I mean. -- nm - Qale Sep 17, 20:00
- Which channel are you seeing this on? I can't find it on line or on any channel -- nm - amoxy Sep 17, 19:50 1
  - twitter. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 17, 19:51
- There are literally dozens of us! -- nm - Tobias Funke Sep 17, 19:47
- Romney didn't even use a hair brush. - David Sep 17, 19:46 20
  - For a guy who's been running for President since 2007, you'd think he wouldn't be this bad at it. - Will Hunting Sep 17, 19:47 16
    - THIS. -- nm - MDH Sep 17, 20:09
    - I feel bad for his ineptitude. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 20:00 12
      - from twitter: "I'm concerned that Romney's master strategy is literally to make us feel bad for him & that it's working on me." -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 20:05
      - You shouldn't. There are obviously a lot of things he does pretty well. - Spawn Sep 17, 20:01 10
        
        I feel bad any time I see someone flounder. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 20:09 1
        
        Not him. -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 20:19
        
        that's another thing that so repulsive about this - the alternatives were Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Santorum, Newt etc... - Diva Sep 17, 20:03 6
        
        yep. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 20:11
        
        Jeb Bush 2016! -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 20:08 2
        
        Jeb really is pretty sharp. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 20:11
        
        If Romney loses, I wonder if the GOP throws out the old guard in 2016 (so no Bushes) and goes for someone completely new. - ty97 Sep 17, 20:10
        
        yup. He was the non-crazy. - ty97 Sep 17, 20:06 1
        
        It is relative. -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 20:09
        
        he was the next man in the line. -- nm - Remlik Sep 17, 20:03
    - like, why not wait until the morning if you're just going to stand by your ethnic slur? - Reagen Sep 17, 19:51
    - That SNL skit over the weekend seems so dead on -- nm - eag Sep 17, 19:48
  - luckily he secretes his own hair gel. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 19:46 1
    - "I make my own." ... so gross -- nm - Beryllium Sep 17, 19:52
  - he did not look ready for prime time. -- nm - Diva Sep 17, 19:46
- you shouldn't even own those. -- nm - Reagen Sep 17, 19:45 7
  - word -- nm - Spawn Sep 17, 19:59
  - omg, I own those. take it back. -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 19:49
  - That's the one good thing about summer ending in my partially hipster neighborhood: no more jorts. -- nm - ty97 Sep 17, 19:47 4
    - jegging jorts? - Reagen Sep 17, 19:48 3
      - jean shorts -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 19:50 2
        
        cutoffs -- nm - loosilu Sep 17, 19:51 1
        
        they make the shorts too.most often seen on guys. -- nm - the liioulu without chrome Sep 17, 20:00
