The Walking Dead Thread

Looking back on this season, it was structured around some basic, interesting ideas, but the execution was uneven (this sentence could probably serve as a description for the whole series). The Terminus stuff showed the change in the group to being more ruthless towards outsiders, making it very int...

Meow's Morning Meeting - 3-29-15 vs. SJ

I went to the game last night, so I have detailed thoughts than normal... --The game really is slowed down by all of the subtle interference. It seemed like it was very rare that someone was actually able to get up to skating full speed. Every time players are close to one another, there's little bu...

The Walking Dead Thread

I think Daryl/Carol dies tonight. Yeah, I haven't read the comics, but it's clear that Daryl and Aaron are on the track of some bad dudes. I also took that horse scene for a heavy-handed metaphor saying that when you try to reign in a wild stallion (e.g. Daryl), they get eaten by zombies. It would ...

"I think they're uncoachable. I think Babcock might be the only thing that can save the Pittsburgh Penguins." -- Rossi

Yeah, I won't read anything Rossi writes at this point, but I have been wondering if Johnston just doesn't have the gravitas to get through to this particular group of players or to keep them playing how he wants. At the beginning of the season, people were (rightfully) "oohing and ahhing" over the ...

Colossal TV Show thread

I don't know if this will open an unpleasant can of worms, but what are people referring to as potential racist stereotypes on UKS? My wife watched the middle 4-5 episodes without me, so I missed some stuff, but I thought the roommate was clearly a stereotypical gay guy, but not really a stereotypic...

Colossal TV Show thread

I'm behind on the Americans, but I agree that generally this season has been great so far. I'm not sure why this show doesn't have more of a following. There's a lot of spy-related action sequences, awesome montages set to 80s music, and the show is really creative about squeezing as much Keri Russe...

Meow's Morning Meeting - 3-26-15 vs. CAR

We have gotten away from some of the things that made us look good early on...some of the elements founded in Soviet transition offense...we are now a little too Canadian-lane-hockey in our entries I feel like...puck support triangles have become too spaced out or non-existent and it's been problem...
