- Hoyer 0/2 on first two series. ESPN licking their chops. -- nm - budice Aug 18, 17:17
- judgement day being what? a quarter or so in a meaningless exhibition game?...nm - x Aug 18, 17:12 5
  - He's playing for the starting job right now so it does mean -something-, unlike most preseason situations. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:14 2
    - Yeah, but no one in the world thinks he isn't the starting QB at some point soon - Will Hunting Aug 18, 17:16 1
      - I dunno. I'm told that Brian Hoyer reminds them of Tom Bra...nope, can't type it with a straight face. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:20

- whoa -- nm - loosi at home Aug 18, 17:23
- Exactly how much *is* the correct amount? -- nm - kelly Aug 18, 17:03 7
  - it's a purely theoretical concept in your household - Reagen Aug 18, 17:06 1
    - Kind of an NP-Hard problem. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 17:09
  - .....and then double it. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 18, 17:05 4
    - Ahem. There are leftover potatoes from last night in the fridge!! -- nm - kelly Aug 18, 17:12
    - PS: that trade offer interest you at all? -- nm - Reagen Aug 18, 17:12 2
      - Nah, I'm good at this point....I'm just figuring out which WR is my keeper. - Will Hunting Aug 18, 17:14
      - Maybe if you throw in a vat of mashed potatoes to sweeten the deal? nm - ralph wiggum Aug 18, 17:14
- he's a witch! -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 17:00
- ... we never have any leftover. And I have never wanted any more. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 16:56

LYC: My brother brings a sub and 20oz Coke over to watch SummerSlam. I notice he had a "Matt" bottle and give him shit for buying that one, - Tim Aug 18, 16:42 2
- Yeah, I haven't found my name either (it does exist on a coke bottle). -- nm - kelly Aug 18, 16:51
- I've seen a Tim Coke, so they at least exist in some fashion. -- nm - Jelly Aug 18, 16:47

Still can't decide if I want to rent a car in san fran. Considering the office is in alameda (and I'd have to go through Oakland) ... I dunno. - Beryllium Aug 18, 16:34 7
- there are buses from/to alameda / downtown san fran -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 18, 17:16 1
  - where are you staying in san fran? parking can be expensive -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 18, 17:17

      - Just over half, I think. nm - Dignan Aug 18, 17:09 2
        
        (Spoilerish) - ralph wiggum Aug 18, 17:13 1
        
        spoil - Dignan Aug 18, 17:25
  - spoils - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:31 4
    - Agreed. It's like Lost without all of the crappy flashbacks. nm - Dignan Aug 18, 16:47 1
      - (Though not related to Lost plot-wise.) nm - Dignan Aug 18, 16:53
    - (thx for the recommendation!) -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:32 1
      - Thanks for reading! I want people to talk to about it. :) nm - ralph wiggum Aug 18, 17:15
I do wonder if last night ends the SuperCena/Cena never puts anybody over stuff. -- nm - Tim Aug 18, 16:26 8
- We -just- watched that match. I almost never say this about WWE, but that was well booked. - David Aug 18, 16:37 4
  - Who knew that HHH was competent at booking? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 18, 17:04 1
    - He's great at a lot of aspects of the company, it's Vince not giving up the reigns that's holding them back at this point. -- nm - Tim Aug 18, 17:05
  - Yup, he got his one AA and got Brock in the STF but it was otherwise a complete shitkicking. - Tim Aug 18, 16:40 1
    - The last time I can recall a monster heel doing that for the title in WWE/WCW was Big Van Vader. -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:56
- no. -- nm - Remlik Aug 18, 16:29 2
  - I joked to my brother "oh, he'll just no sell at one point, hit an AA, CENA WINS LOL" but it was a massacre - Tim Aug 18, 16:34 1
    - oh I agree. Props to Cena and I did like his attempts at a comeback. -- nm - Remlik Aug 18, 16:43
MNF! Johnny Football! woo hoo!! -- nm - Beaker Aug 18, 16:20 3
- Wake me when it counts. -- nm - Reagen Aug 18, 16:22 2
  - Wake me when someone cares about the Browns -- nm - Epiphany Aug 18, 16:24 1
    - I care. -- nm - Luke Aug 18, 16:25
Has Top Chef produced anyone that has gone on to become famous since the Voltaggios/Isabella season? - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:17 22
- I agree with David. The level of talent has risen tremendously in the later seasons. -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 16:51
- How do we define famous? Brooke hosted an MTV cooking show. -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:19 20
  - I guess that would count. What season was she? -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:20 19
    - She was the best chef during the season Kristen won. - David Aug 18, 16:22 16
      - she is *everywhere* in boston these days. she's the point person for the uniqlousa rollout here...nm - x Aug 18, 17:11 3
        
        I admire her decision to stay local and keep working with her mentor rather than moving to LA to be famous. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:15 2
        
        she quit that restaurant job with barbara lynch months ago though.... - x Aug 18, 17:23 1
        
        I hadn't heard that. I know that Lynch basically gave her a restaurant after she won. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:28
      - Here is my real question...esp since you've kept up with the show more than I have - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:29 11
        
        I actually feel it is the opposite. - David Aug 18, 16:35 10
        
        You can't argue that there have been dominant (genuinely talented) players in the later seasons. - Dignan Aug 18, 17:04 4
        
        If that were true, Nina would have won last year and Brooke two seasons ago. - David Aug 18, 17:23 3
        
        That's due to the way eliminations are structured. - Dignan Aug 18, 17:28 1
        
        I absolutely agree. What happened last season was deplorable. - David Aug 18, 17:29
        
        Hmm, Wiki indicates Angelo made the finale. If I had to guess between the two, I would have said Tiffany. - David Aug 18, 17:26
        
        interesting, thank you -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:36 4
        
        BTW, if I had known you were going to Hawaii, I would have suggested that you eat at Sheldon Simeon's restaurant. - David Aug 18, 16:41 3
        
        We weren't on Maui, but I'll remember this if we ever get back there -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:45 2
        
        Did you do any island hopping? -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:47 1
        
        Not this time - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:50
    - Carla Hall has been since them as well. - Kim Pine Aug 18, 16:21 1
      - (I'm wrong. She was the season before them.) -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 18, 16:35
morning board: another factor in fire moving faster up hill, air compresses and moves faster - zeitgeist Aug 18, 16:14
Why didn't Liam Neeson get the role of "The Equalizer"? -- nm - amoxy Aug 18, 16:08 3
- cause then it would have been called taken 3 -- nm - Beaker Aug 18, 16:18 1
  - Taken 4 because Taken 3 is him on the plane with terrorists -- nm - Bacon via Google Nexus 10 Aug 18, 16:38
- Because Antoine Fuqua was directing? -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 18, 16:16

- The Simpsons taught us everything we need to know about the logic of mob mentality -- nm - con_carne Aug 18, 16:07 3
  - I don't know, can you swing a sack of doorknobs? -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:13 2
    - You have to supply your own doorknobs. -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:13 1
      - I'm goin' to law school! -- nm - Reagen Aug 18, 16:20
- No, that he was unarmed and shot. "In the back" is only insult to that level of injury. -- nm - TWuG Aug 18, 16:07
- I am sure the tension has been simmering for a while in Ferguson -- nm - amoxy Aug 18, 16:02
- Several witnesses have said he turned around and raised his hands before the final few shots. -- nm - GregW Aug 18, 16:01
We just watched David after Dentist for the first time. Sooooo overrated. -- nm - David Aug 18, 15:58 6

  - What did Spawn do now? -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:21 2
    - he rode a bike wearing a black shirt with black shorts and knee high black socks -- nm - Remlik Aug 18, 16:27 1
      - How do you put up with him? -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:04
- Now go watch Grape Stomping Reporter! -- nm - Shaun Aug 18, 16:10
- Dr. Giggles is better -- nm - Remlik Aug 18, 15:59
FYI: DFW airport now has rail service. -- (link) - GregW Aug 18, 15:55

- Swiffer!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- nm - Peglegpete Aug 18, 15:54 2
  - ROOMBA!!!!! -- nm - JenBro Aug 18, 16:05 1
