Uh oh. Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 1m My understanding the Jared Allen visit to Seattle today is that it was just talking. No deal at this time. - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 13:07
I never thought I would say this, I kinda like the Rhino suit from the SM2 trailer. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 20, 12:59 12
- He is the *worst* villain in the SM universe. -- nm - Reagen Mar 20, 13:01 11
  - of course he is. that's why the suit works. Spidey C and D List vilians (PASTE POT PETE!) are really lame -- nm - Remlik Mar 20, 13:08
  - maybe, but I kinda dig their take on the suit. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 20, 13:02 9
    - Yeah, a step up from the comic version, at least. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 13:03 8
      - I have a soft spot for the big hulking villians, Rhino, Juggernaut..... -- nm - groiny Mar 20, 13:04 7
        
        Juggernaut is awesome. Rhino never made any sense. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 13:06 6
        
        there has to be some minimum wage villians too -- nm - groiny Mar 20, 13:08 5

        I don't follow the comics, but those images of Batman on that page make him look like he has the ears of a doberman pinscher. -- nm - Max Mar 20, 12:51 3
        
        He has a crap-ton of sensory equipment in them -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:52 2
        
        Does he get Roku? -- nm - Max Mar 20, 13:01 1
        
        Probably, considering he has had 5G for a few years now. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 13:02
    - Okay, remember when I mentioned an ex for Harley? - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:42
gawd. i just had someone at work ask me if i did something that is needed this weekend. i was *100%* sure i had totally forgotten and it wasn't done - Andie Mar 20, 12:25 3
- Quick, did you remember to wear clothes to work today? - Max Mar 20, 12:31 1
  - *looks down*. Yes, yes i did. -- nm - Andie Mar 20, 12:31
- (b.5) ... but it is still getting what needs done, done. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:27

    - lol. I knew before I clicked that had to be it. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:06 2
      - I was going to say if they topped last week's episode... -- nm - JaxSean Mar 20, 12:29 1

- so a leaf is just a fair weather friend? -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 20, 12:06 1
  - The good news is that on Mercury they can go, like, a thousand miles per charge. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:07
- Conventional fuelled vehicles get worse mileage in the winter too. - Reagen Mar 20, 11:46 1
  - Diesel drops by about 20% when switched to winter fuel plus a cold engine. -- nm - spamlet Mar 20, 11:54

He died -- (link) - amoxy Mar 20, 11:30 2
- He didn't deserve such a long article. First paragraph was sufficient -- nm - Flavorize Mar 20, 11:35 1
  - Agreed, that is why I didn't mention his name in the subject line -- nm - amoxy Mar 20, 11:38
Interesting...Survivor finale moving to Wednesday night. Normal time, but the finale is usually on Sunday. Not anymore! -- (link) - Jim Mar 20, 11:29 49
- Sunday is a long night of TV. So, good. - con_carne Mar 20, 11:35
- I think I approve. I think -- nm - mud Mar 20, 11:33
- "The show is in the midst of a renaissance of sorts, currently in the middle of its fourth strong season in a row" --- was the first big season of the - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:31 8
  - lol...it was, in fact One World. So, I guess...yes, Colton saved Survivor!!! -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:34 7
    - And we're incorrect. Malcolm saved Survivor. Philippines was S25. One World was S24 -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:39 4
      - ha ha. at trivia during that season, we were talking about it and some chippie next to us noted that she was watching for the first time - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:40
      - Also, I haven't seen an episode of this season yet. Should I be racing to catch up, or write it off entirely? -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:39 2
        
        You should definitely catch it. It's been very good so far, I think. There are some people I don't like and they appear to be "winning" for the time - Jim Mar 20, 11:43 1
        
        Thanks - I'll try and churn through the double episode tonight -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:45
    - Wouldn't the fourth season back be the first one in the Ohilippines (the one with Malcolm and Denise and Lisa Welchel?) -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:38 1
      - Whoa. :) -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:39
- how much longer do you think the show will be on? -- nm - decline Mar 20, 11:29 37
  - There is a lot of buzz that S30 will be the Legends season which will be the finale. Although, they're still having casting calls, which would seem - Jim Mar 20, 11:35 26
    - It's a top 20 show with steady ratings, high +7 numbers and tremendous profit margin. - David Mar 20, 11:36 25
      - I agree. And it seems to be working for them to just renew for 1 year (2 seasons) at a time. -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:37 24
        
        What I do think will happen is that they get rid of Probst at some point to create new interest. -- nm - David Mar 20, 11:39 1
        
        yeah, and this too. I think probst retiring would get a lot of talk about the show started again. - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:41
        
        my question really is whether it's time for probst to go. and who should replace him? - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:39 21
        
        Ryan Seacrest! -- nm - decline Mar 20, 11:40
        
        To you and David...I think it is time for Probst to go. Who could replace him, I have no idea. Maybe an unknown. Or a host from some other show. - Jim Mar 20, 11:40 19
        
        oh, adam would be good, I think. what about a former player? too biasing? cochran? malcolm? rob's not articulate enough. aras? not dynamic enough. -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:42 5
        
        I like Malcolm a lot...but I think he wants to be center of attention and Probst has already gone too far in that direction. Cesternino would be good - Jim Mar 20, 11:48
        
        cesternino would be great, actually. -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:43 2
        
        I don't know that I really want to see more of him, but Jonathan Penner -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:44 1
        
        I don't think penner is high energy enough. I *love* him, but I want my host to be more... something. -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:46
        
        what about a different player each season? is that gimmicky? -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:42
        
        It should be an established player who isn't afraid to tell people they're being stupid. -- nm - David Mar 20, 11:41 12
        
        I would pay good money to see Sandra Diaz-Twine host a season -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:47 6
        
        Ya know, Parvati hosts the aftershow at CBS.com...any reason she couldn't do it? -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:47 5
        
        I think parv looks really uncomfortable on camera when she's even semi-scripted. wooden. she'd be a crapshoot. -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:49
        
        I think Parvati is what Poison Ivy is like as a real person. -- nm - David Mar 20, 11:48 3
        
        In all seriousness, if they do make a move like that. I would think their short list would have 2 names on it. Mariano and Donaldson. - Jim Mar 20, 11:50 2
        
        I'd pay money to see corinne host. -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:52 1
        
        That'd be awesome! -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:58
        
        So, Donaldson? Penner? -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:44 3
        
        Tyson? lol -- nm - Jim Mar 20, 11:45 2
        
        laughing. hatch might be great actually. (I think it can't be a chick. and I think they would always have to wear blue shirts as an hommage.) -- nm - Moray Gerbson Mar 20, 11:46
        
        Rupert? -- nm - Roger More Mar 20, 11:46
        
        if you insist -- nm - Boston Rob Mar 20, 11:42
  - It still gets 9.5 million viewers and is dirt cheap to produce. -- nm - David Mar 20, 11:32
  - Once they start tattooing sponsor logos on the players, forever. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 11:31 7
    - how long until there`s a giant logo on the moon? -- nm - mud Mar 20, 11:32 6
      - Casinos? -- nm - Steve Austin Mar 20, 11:36 2
        
        with hookers and blackjack -- nm - David Mar 20, 12:09 1
        
        Space hookers. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 12:34
      - I'm on it. -- nm - Chairface Chippendale Mar 20, 11:36
      - They will get those projectors developed within 5 years. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 20, 11:33 1
        
        swell. -- nm - mud Mar 20, 11:34
  - it beat American Idol last night in 18-49 and almost beat them in total viewers (9.58 vs 9.66) -- nm - Beaker Mar 20, 11:31
