Hoops vs MSU

Great all around. Sometimes the violence seems gratuitous but the characters, writing ..all of it is excellent. You can rewatch episodes over and over and gleen something new every time.

Yeah, there's so much good TV, there isn't enough time to watch it all, let alone twice. But Breaking Bad, GoT, and Westworld are worth it.

I binge watched GOT last summer to catch up ...tough to watch with a young kiddo in the house. We were doing a remodel and I lived in the basement while the wife/kid stayed in the mountains, so I?d knock out 2-3 episodes every night.

Generally I like the HBO shows - Sopranos, the Wire, Deadwood, GOT ..some others I never watched but they?re far better than typical tv programming

We don't have HBO, so it makes it a bit difficult to watch.

The wife and I have considered trying to start it on the Fire Stick, but quality through Kodi apps on the stick keeping getting worse.

You might be able to get a discounted HBO trial with HBO on demand, watch the series and then cancel.

Or a person can rent the DVDs from a whole lot of different suppliers.

Maybe just rent the first episode, see if you like it and take it from there.

Uhhhh ...yeah, Dick Rod got fired, so um ....yeah. He can?t take UA to the Rose Bowl now. And then there?s the BCS Bowls M has won since.

So ....yeah.

uhhhh....yeah, you said the bet was about the rose bowl and yeah...um uofm hasn't been to the rose bowl since 2007, before rich rod stepped foot on either campus.

and um...yeah, you also didn't specify the year the bet was placed or any conditions like um the head coach of either school at the time had to be the one to take them so um...yeah it's not clear what the terms were.

for um example...yeah, you could have made the bet during the hoke era in which case you might be the welcher because um....yeah, hoke got fired before rich rod. But I don't see how that makes you the welcher either since the bet is about the Rose Bowl and RR still hadn't gotten there. There are a lot of holes in the story so um...yeah, it was a legitimate question.

Also, if you made that bet with me, even with the RR condition and you called me up to collect, I'd tell you to go fuck yourself and call me when Harbaugh gets Michigan to the rose bowl...so ummm....yeah.

Surprisingly - and edited for content - GOT is available on United flights so I?ve seen the show when we didn?t have HBO at the time.

Jesus, who shit in your oatmeal. What the hell is your problem lately?

 

[Spartanmack]

You did pick up that she was the Spartan Queen Gorgo right?

So she's been Queen Cersei, Queen Gorgo and Sarah Conner.

Or Connor...

yeah, i specifically mentioned queen gorgo in post 328. i was also thinking about correcting your spelling of Connor but that one was close enough and i couldn't think of any witty comment about the misspelling.

 

[Spartanmack]

Jesus, who shit in your oatmeal. What the hell is your problem lately?

me? who shit in yours? i'm just responding in kind. don't take it personally or the wrong way - I tell me friends to go fuck themselves all the time.

 

[Spartanmack]

maybe Arizona will re-hire RR and he'll get a second chance?

nothing is impossible in Trump's America.

or Harbaugh could go back to the NFL without ever taking uofm to the Rose Bowl. Or he could coach his whole career at uofm and never get them to the Rose Bowl - although presumably Trump wouldn't be president his entire career so maybe one day that will be impossible, just not right now.

 

[Spartanmack]

So they just need to write Hamilton into Game of Thrones so all the Connors can meet.

or Kevin Bacon...

 

[Spartanmack]

They really really really really do.

It's kind of daunting to try to figure out whose been John Connor.

Christian Baile is the biggest name I guess.

at best a poor man's Edward Furlong.

The ignore button is your friend here. I don't remember the last post he had where it wasn't condescending, mean, or prickly. It's just not worth it. He can't converse with people like an adult.

True. I haven't looked into it much. Not a high priority for me. I'm interested in the show a bit, but I don't really have the time right now to invest in it.

 

[Spartanmack]

I think there actually was some kind of teleportation last season to get the dragons to the north as fast as they did, or to get Jon Snow to safety, or something.

there was that time the red witch with the smoking hot body birthed that ghost of Stannis Baratheon so he could kill his brother Renly - not exactly the same as teleportation but close.

 

[Spartanmack]

just finished Peaky Blinders on Netflix. Definitely worth watching - it's 4 seasons but I think there are only 6 episodes per season. It's a post WWI drama about a British organized crime gang founded by war vets. I'd be shocked if half the cast didn't get cancer filming it though - I don't think there's a scene the main character is in where he isn't lighting a cigarette

 

[Michchamp]

I think I'm about the only person left who doesn't watch Game of Thrones.

*fist bump*

solidarity.

I don't like watching gratuitous violence, especially torture.

and dragons, myths, magic and other shit like that is stupid too.

but anyone who posts on the game of thrones threads in the TV section knows that already

You like football. Football is violent.

gratuitous = uncalled for; lacking good reason; unwarranted.

too bad he has me on ignore - i have so much yet to teach the young man.
