LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

I just logged into Origin and I see that I have the TF beta available for DL.

I never got an email from EA, those motherfuckers.

EA opened the beta for everyone on Xbox1/PC. They just put it in your Origin account because you have one.

They stopped sending emails are far as I know because of this.

Converting base to bonus in late contract years is why Steelers have been in cap hell for 2-3 years. Its only semi intelligent if you think you have a SB ready team and will make a run the following year.

No Netflix over here :-/

And I've watched every little nugget of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives that is on Youtube already...

I wonder if unblock-us or a similar service will work for you. It's 13 bucks monthly for me to have access to every Netflix region. It is against the Terms of Service though. You may want to check it out though.

I'm glad RAD at least is working on an original IP. Being stuck with someone else's creation on PSP must have hurt their creative freedom a lot. Jury is still out on gameplay like you said.

That guy complains about EVERYTHING, not just Valve. As for mods, Stump is the one I'm most afraid of. Guy approaches everything more dispassionately than Opiate.

I'll try. Very difficult to get football matches here (even games of that caliber).

The EPL became a notable exception with the new TV deal, but major international competitions are hit or miss. I'll check ESPN or ESPN2.

Champions League matches are exclusively on FOX. Normally Fox Soccer Channel or FS1, but a match of that magnitude might just make it onto the regular FOX channel.

Hey!

Well, I don't normally lurk this thread, no. Actually, I checked League of Denial out from the library on Sunday, and I got through about 90% of it yesterday. It's really engrossing, and I was thinking about asking for other good NFL-related non-fiction. I'd be less interested in the memoirs of individual players than in histories - even of particular teams or seasons - if that helps.

Lol, Fair enough.

Here are two, that I enjoyed about the Raiders:

Better to Reign in Hell: Inside the Raiders Fan Empire

Badasses: The Legend of Snake, Foo, Dr. Death, and John Madden's Oakland Raiders

There are other Raider books, but these two are probably the best recent ones

Called work, gonna go home early tonight, so that I can watch! Not a fan of either team, quite the opposite really, but should be a good game. Absolutly love Yaya Toure as a player, such a beast.

I gotta disagree. Stump just likes to compartmentalize everything. Opiate has made some posts where i've seriously had to question whether or not he's really a robot.

I played the TF beta yesterday on PC. It's not a bad game, but I don't see myself buying it. 6v6 and all those AI bots just doesn't appeal to me. The graphics are pretty terrible too, basically PS3/360 game with better image quality. Not really a game where art style makes up for it either, it just looks dated.

Hey mumei, Check out "America's Game". Basically a tome of history of the NFL. I read only a little bit of it, mainly because it did feel like reading a wiki entry at times, but maybe that's what your looking for?

It's funny that you should suggest Raiders books to me; my dad's favorite team has always been the Oakland Raiders. I'll check them out; thanks for the suggestions.

I feel bad for Opiate. The whole him being a robot thing really seemed to bother him for a while. Maybe it still does.

He doesn't really like the robot thing, no.

Though he has made a few self-referential Terminator-related jokes.

Look up "missing rings" it's about the Minnesota Vikings in 98. They were one of the best teams in Sports history to not win a championship along with the 16-0 Patriots.

It's more heartbreaking though because the Vikings have a storied history of being good but fucking up at the worst moment.

Greg, you just made my morning e-mail checks much more epic sounding. Really like Wash. Makes me feel like I'm in a sci-fi action movie and electric billboards are streaming on all sides as downtrodden people in black leather pull their collars up to shield their net-ports from the freezing rain.

Really excited to see what Lattimore can do. Gore seemed to run out of gas late in the season.

Yes please to not breaking the bank. Dude is saying all the right things so far this offseason, but I need to see more from him in terms of reading progressions next year. I'm a CK fan overall and hope he can take the next step!!
