ST Roll Poll: For basketball people: If Lebron wins this year, is he Top 5 all-time? If not, where is he all-time in your opinion? -- nm - Shaun Jun 10, 07:08 3
- I don't like him but I think he's top 5 or just outside of it. Mike, Magic, Russell, Kareem, Bird and then LeBron. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 07:11
- Some would say he's top 5 already. If he wins this year, with this team...I think the debate about that ends. -- nm - Jim Jun 10, 07:10 1

It's like something out of a Mission: Impossible storyline: Spy is 95% at RT. Ninety. Five. Percent. - Shaun Jun 10, 06:08 7
- It's a fun flick. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 06:28
- I think the critics are liking it more than audiences. It's fun but not great. -- nm - Diva Jun 10, 06:21 3
  - I agree. It's generally very good but never quite makes the leap to great. The supporting cast is excellent, though. -- nm - 99 LuftBarons Jun 10, 06:32

  - SS had this to say: "Fantastic fun and (dare I say it?) as good as the original movie." -- nm - Beaker Jun 10, 06:23 7
    - As good as the original? I have my doubts but hopefully he's right. -- nm - Krusty Jun 10, 06:29 4

OK, so I'm considering placing a facebook ad to promote grubthing. heh. Crazy or not crazy? - Beryllium Jun 9, 22:45 8

    - I feel like more write ups would go further than an advert that we've all become trained not to look at. -- nm - Qale Jun 9, 22:53 2
      - That's a fair point. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 9, 22:55 1
        
        One benefit of going through the ad process: I ended up making an updated logo. heh. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 9, 22:55
