OTFPOTD: 12/30/08 - Chase Daniel is a cabbage patch kid edition

Tiny by abender20 on Comment 641 comments

Losing a bowl game in that fashion sucks. Hard. Never kick to Jeremy Maclin if your team is mostly slow and reasonably white. It's a bad idea. I got angrier than Charlie Kelly when Dee, Dennis, Mac and Frank are not cooperating on the set of his musical. Since I highhhhly doubt anyone else gives a grumpy about the outcome of the Valero Alamo Bowl, I will move on.

 

 

What are the top 3 things you are excited for in the coming year, sports or otherwise?

Bad phrasing on my part.

I’m just saying the whole novelty of the show is wearing off a little bit, I guess. I still love it and will watch every episode, but I think it may have peaked. And that’s fine.

I can't begin to count how many people I've turned onto that show

For months I’ve been half-interested in recording how many times I laugh out loud while watching an episode of Philadelphia vs. how often I laugh while watching 30 Rock. I’m curious as to which show is funnier.

I definitely prefer 30 Rock

I don’t know why but I find Philadelphia at best mildly amusing, and 30 Rock always makes me double over in hysterics.

Also the artificial selection process wouldn't necessarily select for brains or fiscal robustness.

It may select for proximity to chainsaws or flamethrowers, or perhaps ability to run faster than your neighbors.

I'm figuring the best bet right now is to buy the 3-game strip and just StubHub the tickets for the semi-finals to defray the cost of a ticket to the finals

the problem though, is that the final in on Monday at like 5:30 which means you lose at least a half-day of work if you work in San Diego

  • Going to Iceland for my honeymoon.
  • The ‘09 Sasquatch festival. I’m 90% sure that Art Brut will be there, and this pleases me immensely.

by Robert on Dec 30, 2008 9:55 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

It's not so much ditching Hass as it is preparing for the future.

Hass is an older QB and has a fairly extensive injury history, so it makes sense to select a new QB to groom for a couple of seasons.

by BrianL on Dec 30, 2008 10:00 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

I have no problem with grooming a replacement

but with the money that Hass is due + the likely plus 6 million dollar contract that a top 4 pick would control would force our hand and push Hass out both before he’s done and before Bradford/Stafford would be ready.

Matt Hasselbeck

I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE!!! I DRINK IT UP!!

by abender20 on Dec 30, 2008 10:16 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Yes, but were those bulging discs causing their drive legs to weaken?

That was Matt’s problem this year. That particular disc was putting pressure on a nerve bundle that affected his push-off leg.

“As it turns out, the back situation that he had aggravated in our preseason was actually creating the problem with his leg,” Holmgren said. “Now we know where we’re headed with the treatment, and it’s tied in with the disc situation.”

Hasselbeck has been put on a series of rehab tests, Holmgren said, because the disc problem is creating a weakness in his leg.

per Seattle PI

Yes this problem might take care of itself, but there’s a good chance that it will be something he’d have to worry about for the rest of his career. If that bulging disc is a recurring thing and causes Matt to lose power in that leg, he’s got a serious problem.

Even to this day he puts on an amazing show

The duration has dropped – the first time I saw him it was almost five hours with only a 10 minute break, and this last tour was just a tick over 2.30 including two encores – but that is one of the tightest live bands you’ll ever see, and it’s clear that they still love what they do. Playing together for 35 years will do that for a band.

Are you a live music guy?

If so, and if you are open to having that opinion changed, go see the E Street Band live next time they tour. It may not make you the biggest fan ever, but you will definitely appreciate the music a lot more after having seen it performed by an amazing live band. I know it sounds like a hoary old cliche, but when the first few bars of Rosalita or Born To Run fly off that stage, it gives me goosebumps every single time.

Probably would.

I’ve definitely had live shows change my opinion many times (M.I.A., My Morning Jacket, Flaming Lips) whether it be from active dislike to like, or from like to love.

I don’t think I could ever fork out $70 for an experiment, though.

by Phildopip on Dec 30, 2008 10:44 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

last time he toured it was $95 plus service charges

so that probably drops the odds even that much more, which I completely understand.

I did like Magic better than The Rising

but the song he did for the Wrestler soundtrack is just sorta generic – not bad, not great – and I fear the new album will be like that, unremarkable but not actually bad. I hope I’m pleasantly surprised.

The tape loops are what made the band work.

They added some sort of otherworldly melody to the really obtuse song structures and as much of a fan as I am of the musicianship of MoB, without the tape loops I’m not sure if it would even be listenable.

Hawes is well better than swift petro and sene.

He is more polished, more skilled, and has a better bball IQ. Sene was drafted for his potential only(read: he is tall and has long arms but never played ball), and lord knows what they were thinking with Swift and Petro. Swift was a high schooler, and its hard to evaluate those guys properly until they get a year in college to see whats what. look what happned to DeAndre Jordan… Top high school prospect, would have been a top 5 pick out of high school. Had to go to the pros, and…. not so much. Second round flier by the clippers.

Not really on both counts.

20 percent good service/10 for not making me wait all night. And really only ever stayed there for one beer, and sometimes didn’t finish it. The clientele in that joint can get on my nerves pretty fast sometimes. The guy had a great memory, and I’m not that memorable.
The Irish Emigrant had a bartender with a similar memory, but the owner sold the place ~3 years ago and bought a joint downtown somewhere, took the bartender with him.

I’ve lived in Maple Leaf/Lake City for almost a year. And, while I leave this weekend, it hasn’t treated me half bad. Nor did the ave really. Aside from the robbery and subsequent nunchuck to the side of the head. But that was kinda my fault for not being a little more savvy.

Lake City Way isn't so bad, anymore

they’ve done a lot to try to clean it up, more apartments, more businesses etc. Though I was in the area just northwest of Lake City was, picking up trash for work crew, I was a little sketched out.

The U-district wasn’t so bad. I had tons of food, bars, movie theatres and a toally bad ass video store(Scarecrow Video) all within easy walking distance. But I understand that most of the Ave’s denizens make most people hate it.

It’s never fun not being able to walk 10 ft without some methed out freak trying to sell you pot. For the most part if people want pot they know how to get it and aren’t about to buy it from some über creepy looking guy who’ll just sell you a tiny albeit laced amount.
