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.

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...

I need to hear from stillgeezer before I take a position.
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.

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.

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

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...

Steelers vs. Vikes 9/17/17 - Here We Go!

Bell hasn't exactly looked great, but Bryant has.
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.
