121212 Poll: Who's planning to watch the concert tonight? - TFox Dec 12, 06:56 21
- No. Will watch the highlights on Youtube, though. - Spawn Dec 12, 07:15
- Doubtful. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 12, 07:14
- I knew about it, but most likely not. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 12, 07:13
- I forgot about it. I'll probably tune in for a bit since there's no local basketball game on tv. -- nm - Krusty Dec 12, 07:05 6
  - Speaking of: I have Nets thoughts for you. - TFox Dec 12, 07:10 5
    - I disagree about Humphries. He grabs a ton of boards, plays good defense and can score in the paint when needed. - Krusty Dec 12, 07:24 1
      - You don't trump my newborn niece! :) -- nm - TFox Dec 12, 07:26
    - Oh, you saw Aundrey Blatche's one good game this year...congrats - Will Hunting Dec 12, 07:17 2
      - Have you watched him play this year? Because you're very wrong. He's been very good this season. - Krusty Dec 12, 07:26 1
        
        I watched him for 6 years here. if he finally figured it out, it figures he does it after leaving DC, but he's exactly what's wrong with sports. - Will Hunting Dec 12, 07:43

        On a separate note...I look forward to the inevitable Broncos-Patriot rematch in the playoffs. - Jim Dec 12, 06:55 13
        
        I really want to see the Jets squeak in at #6 and play denver as the 3. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 12, 06:57 12
        
        A more interesting game would be the Colts...but doesn't look like that'll happen right now. But I like the idea of the Jets in the first round. - Jim Dec 12, 07:01 11

        Don't want to play teams you'll whoop by 30. - TFox Dec 12, 07:11 7
        
        part of me wants the Giants again...part of me never wants that to happen again. -- nm - Melkor Profit Dec 12, 07:19 4
        
        It would be the best kind of awful imaginable. -- nm - TFox Dec 12, 07:20 3
        
        No shit...it's like, "Awesome...we get another shot at 'em. But fuck, what if we lose again?" -- nm - Jim Dec 12, 07:21 2
        
        No lead would be enough. Just keep running it up. - TFox Dec 12, 07:23 1
        
        I think we could give Harrison $5 to beat Tyree with a hammer for the duration of the game... -- nm - Melkor Profit Dec 12, 07:25
        
        Um, ok. We'll play Pittsburgh or Cincinnati again. Beat em once...we can do it again. - Jim Dec 12, 07:16 1
        
        That's my boy. - TFox Dec 12, 07:17
        
        You should want to beat all the tough teams instead of an easy path to a title. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 12, 07:11
so Wiggums I understand you want a family board game...may I interest you in the Walking Dead board game for the whole family? -- nm - Remlik Dec 12, 06:42 9
- I've been on a trend to buy a new family game each year. First it was "Forbidden Island" (awesome), last year it was "Tsuro" (very cool). This year - Kilbo Baggins Dec 12, 06:44 8
