*checks BF team* Awww yeah. Most points this week. -- nm - Shaun Dec 8, 06:56
St Louis Post Dispatch ending comments on editorials. "Why? Ferguson." -- (link) - ty97 Dec 8, 06:43 2
- That might be the excuse, but the STLPD comments sections have long been known as cesspools of humanity. - spamlet Dec 8, 06:57 1
  - Oh, it's only for two months for now. I'll be shocked if they get turned back on at all. -- nm - spamlet Dec 8, 06:58

- QB, QB, QB, QB, not QB -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 06:44 22
  - If Winston and Mariota are is there another QB worth drafting? - Krusty Dec 8, 06:51 16
    - I wouldn't even want Winston. Have you looked at his stats this year? - David Dec 8, 06:56 10
      - An argument for Winston is the kid doesn't lose. He has bad halves but finds a way to win games. -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 07:02 1
        
        He does by leading a college team that is night and day more talented than their opponents. - David Dec 8, 07:03
      - I don't want either guy. Winston mostly for his off field crap but those stats aren't screaming future Pro Bowler. I don't want Mariota because I - Krusty Dec 8, 06:58 3
        
        Mariota screams star to me. -- nm - David Dec 8, 07:00 2
        
        If he ends up here I hope that's the case. But I'm not sure he has the make up to play here. -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 07:01

        He won't have the choice given he's an NCAA investigation waiting to happen. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 8, 07:06 1

    - next would be Hundley, I think? Whether he's worth the #3 pick is doubtful though. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 06:54 2
      - I like him as a player. -- nm - David Dec 8, 06:56

        It's Monday AM. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 06:54
- The Redskins are not one of the worst 5 teams in football. This is the most damning indictment on the quality of play in the league imaginable. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 8, 06:41 2
  - We were having a discussion at lunch yesterday about the worst five teams in football. - David Dec 8, 06:51 1
    - Oh, as a performing team, I agree they are dregs, but that still doesn't win them a better draft pick - Will Hunting Dec 8, 07:05
The AFC now has 12 teams above .500 and 4 teams at 2-11. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 06:22 1
- Watch out for that Falcons/Panthers Week 17 clash determining the 4-seed in the NFC. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 06:24
The BIFA's was fun last night. We won best film for Pride as well as 3 other awards (supporting acting awards and production for The Goob). - LMS Dec 8, 06:21 2
- congrats! -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 06:36
- Congrats! And I love Bill Bailey! I'm sure he had the crowd rolling. - Krusty Dec 8, 06:35

- I don't think I've ever seen a fire that big. -- nm - Stupid philosophy (roo) Dec 8, 06:40
Perhaps I'm being a curmudgeon (impossible!) but this small episode from Facebook made me think that everyone is just dumb. - ty97 Dec 8, 06:01 6
- So I've just looked up this new stations page on FB and there are more stories of that sort and more likes - ty97 Dec 8, 06:35
- I never cease to be amazed by the stupidity of comments on news stories on Facebook. - Kim Pine Dec 8, 06:23 4
  - Yup. I avoid the comments at all costs. -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 06:34 3
    - I avoid facebook at all costs -- nm - decline Dec 8, 06:39 2
      - I'm getting sick of FB and I'd go somewhere to share with friends but those places are empty. - Krusty Dec 8, 06:47 1
        
        *somewhere else* -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 06:47

Time Person of the Year shortlist -- (link) - ty97 Dec 8, 05:14 17
- With that list I'd give it to the Ebola caregivers. I don't like it when it's someone that's done awful things so no Putin -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 06:22
- [deleted] 1
  - [deleted]
- Putin by a mile. He's pretty much become the most important foreign leader in the world. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 8, 06:18 5
  - I disagree. He's had the most headlines but he's not all that important to the rest of the first world. - Krusty Dec 8, 06:24 3
    - The first part of your IM is *exactly* why Putin is the right answer. In the modern age, diplomacy at this exclusive level suggests.... - Name Withheld By Request Dec 8, 08:27
    - Putin's basically made Nato have to wake up with his aggression. He's brough the cold war back in a strong way. - Will Hunting Dec 8, 06:29
    - That's not to diminish Russia standing on the world stage but I just think he's made a lot of headlines for doing bad things - Krusty Dec 8, 06:25
  - this was my thought -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 06:19
- I don't think they should pick (or nominate) people who are in the news for negative reasons -- nm - Flavorize Dec 8, 06:04 1
  - Why? The defining person of a year can be evil. Hitler is unqeustionably the most important man of 1939; Osama Bin Laden was the most impactful - Will Hunting Dec 8, 06:17
- ME! -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 05:27 5
  - I'd pick you over Taylor Swift and Roger Goodell. -- nm - Roger More Dec 8, 05:40 3
    - If they pick Taylor Swift, so help me, I will burn every copy of Time Magazine in existence. -- nm - ty97 Dec 8, 05:40 2
      - I'll carry the extra gasoline. -- nm - Krusty Dec 8, 06:36

      - actually would have lost to 3 players I faced (Demarco, Big Ben and the St Louis D) -- nm - Beaker Dec 8, 06:17 1
        
        Yeah, but I think it's better knowing there was nothing we could do to change the outcome. - Krusty Dec 8, 06:38
    - It's the playoffs. Shit happens. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 05:56 2
      - Better than having my mediocre team go far and getting a crappy draft pick. - Krusty Dec 8, 06:09 1
        
        I think I'm going to lose tonight, as usual with the 1-seed. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 06:55
- 4/5 matchup is gonna be close. Baron Wasteland is down 35 but has Rodgers/Nelson vs Bryant. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 8, 04:27 1
  - It was looking pretty hopeless before the Sun night game, but now it's in the realm of possibility. - Good Baron Wenceslas Dec 8, 06:23
