Movie Thread
Watched Drugstore Cowboy yesterday which I probably hadn't seen in about 20 years. Kind of lost track of how old it was; Matt Dillon was in his 20's and Heather Graham was a teenager. Movie also featured a great song Israelites by Desmond Dekker and the Aces.
RIP

I read an account of this guy after a title referred to marine serving in Europe during WW II which didn't sound right. I'm glad I read it because it was one of the most incredible stories I've ever read. https://www.defensemedianetwork.com/stories/the-incredible-saga-of-col-peter-j-ortiz/ http://mi...

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness
I figured it was less than 50-50 chance that cro-magnon man would get a game. Thrilled that he got 3. Hope that someday they evolve to all head hits illegal and the Wilsons face half season or season suspensions (serial offenders). I hope it doesn't take a laeyer brigade to clean thins up. As for Wi...

Playoff GDT: Round II, Game III - Pens v Caps
I agree with Ken Dryden's view. Penalize all hits to the head accidental or not. Treat it like a high stick; don't matter if it's accidental. It seems obvious that the NHL won't seriously address the problem. It'll only take action by a remedy I hate; having an avalanche of lawyers sueing the Hell o...

It's going to be a tough day for me. Last week I was set to quit watching the Steelers dependent upon the team behavior. But this week I realized it's more about the NFL than the Steelers and plan on never attending or watching an NFL game again. Maybe I'll change my view in a few years but I hope I...

This probably still frightens people (including some here in our monochrome utopia).

I'll be glad to tell you a position you can take but it's nearly physically impossible and I'm not sure the graphic and obscene description might get me in trouble with the board.I need to hear from stillgeezer before I take a position.

Steelers @ Bears -- Week 3 -- GDT
Steelers run defense is disgraceful today. Their tackling in general on looks like last years wretched efforts. Bears deserve to win this game versus a listless Steeler team.

Steelers @ Bears -- Week 3 -- GDT
I think Tomlin is a better coach than Cowher. But the Steelers have continually played poorly against bad teams away from Heinz field. I think their record has been 5 - 11 against sub .500 teams on the road

Staying in the locker room is actually quite a political statement, IMO. Disagree. I think it's avoiding the conflict. I took Tomlin's statement about " not forcing guys to choose" as emphasizing it's football not a political rally. My take on it. Political statements go in multiple directions on t...

The first time a see anyone on the Steelers do something like that I plan on making that the last NFL game I watch. If that happens I hope I don't lose my resolve and watch them in the playoffs. Well, you have a few free hours on every Sunday now. Maybe pick up painting or calligraphy as a hobby. I...

The Ravens would have to get crushed 1 week before the Steelers play them. Ravens will play over their heads next Sunday.The "Elite" Joe Flacco went 4-12 for 8 yds and an interception in the 1st half against the Jags.

99.9% sure they have the right to free speech anywhere. Could be wrong though. It’s been a while since I looked at the constitution. Does it make provisions for “on the field” exemptions? I think the distinction is "protesting" at a workplace or at a public ceremony (dependent upon one's job). Many...

They're telegraphing the ground game against a good run defense with their vaunted 2 weak (blocking) te set. I usually guess over 80% of Haley's plays (pass or run) and I'm not an NFL defensive player or coordinator.Bell hasn't exactly looked great, but Bryant has.
