This gimmick is truly fucking

This gimmick is truly fucking pathetic.  Care a little less.

LPT

Just go to YouTube.  Every game is uploaded and you can watch a version that is less than 30 minutes.  No advertisements, and the quality is just dandy.

 

LPT PT II

If you don't have a smart tv, get a chromecast for roughly $30 or so, stream it from your phone to your tv.  

 

I subscribe to BTN and used to get hype over this type of thing, but now we can control our own destiny.  Take the power back.

If only Hoke had commented

If only Hoke had commented differently regarding the MSU stake incident, that username could have been created.  I agree wholeheartedly that it would in fact, be a a much cooler name and make everything I have to say more important.

Just to Follow Up

None of this stems from concern for me. I know there is a lot of rubbish on the board about it though.  This was more of an expansion on the whole, "trust in the Harbaugh," concept.

 

The rankings are of no concern to me.  And I assume it is the same way for our coaches.  They know what they want, and will offer when they see it.  I don't know nearly enough about football to think I know better than they do.  I have questioned zero of their choices thus far. Just exploring some levels maaaaaaan.

I'm the worst.  Too eager to

I'm the worst.  Too eager to jump on that nerdy dinosaur wave that I haven't been able to surf since '93.

The trailers are why I wasn't

The trailers are why I wasn't expecting much.  I thought I basically knew what would happen because of it.  The dialogue was just bad.  Turns out some of that was spliced together to make two somewhat "meh" lines into one "fuck that is bad," line.

As others have said, the movie is pretty aware of what it is, and that is probably the best aspect of it.  Trevorrow is 2 for 2 for me.

Dinosaurs existed over three

Dinosaurs existed over three specific time periods called Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous.  Each spanned millions of years.

Jurassic just sounds cool.  A lot of the dinosaurs they use existed in one of the other two periods.

IMAX at Navy Pier last night

I came in with tempered expectations, and they were exceeded.

Nostalgia aspect was nice, but there were some legit cool and fresh wow moments.  CGI overall looked better than expected, and there was a lot of it.

My simple take- It was as good as it could have been.  Worth checking out.

10 - 4

OVER.  AND.   OUT.

ALSO HATE

My mother ruined any chance of appreciating Seger. Turns out not taking his Greatest Hits album out of your car stereo for 8 years will cause those around you to lose their fucking minds.

 

I blame it for my parents divorce.

The only question that

The only question that matters according to the blog.

 

"Nike or Adidas?"

Plus one to you, sir

If I could upvote you I would.  I actually just picked up the reissue of In the Aeroplane on 180g vinyl on my lunch break about 10 minutes ago.

 
D'yer Mak'Er will get me

D'yer Mak'Er will get me every time.

 

Oh Sister by Neutral Milk Hotel.

 

Birth in Reverse by St Vincent was pretty brutal for me in 2014.

If I had but 100 MGoPoints you would receive one.

Beat me to it.  

 

I also love the idea of it being an ode to the Fab 5.

 

Especially since in some of the recruiting tweets I've seen #Fab25

Weed

If you're job isn't going to be in jeopardy over it.

 

Always works for me.

 

I don't feel like verifying, but I believe I read it is that one of the ways cannabinoids affect the brain is by shutting down a particular signal that is sent to cause spasms in your digestive system that create the sensation of nausea and reduce overall inflammation.

 

Same reason that you always feel like you could eat more when you're stoned.  And one of the benefits for chemo.

 

It has always been effective for me.

First Time

Since the OP asked for favorite stories relating to the herb, (which I missed because I'm awful,) I figured I would describe my first experience.  I challenge someone to beat it.

I was 20 and visiting an ex in Chicago after a trip from my home in Michigan.  She talked me into it after a stressful hour drive through traffic to get to her apartment.

We ordered Lou Malnati's.  Smoked a joint with Seinfeld playing on tv.  A couple minutes after we were done I waited to feel something.  Not knowing what to expect.

I vividly remember saying "I don't think I feel anything from this."  The second I finished that sentence, Kramer busted through the door on the tv.  I laughed for five minutes straight over it, and that's when I realized.

After that, we did what young lovers do, and then the pizza arrived.

I never looked back.

 

 

The Best

I waited until 20 to try it.  Thankful for that because I haven't gone more than a week without it since, (6 years.) I had read enough about it and heard enough personal experiences that I knew I would love it, so I tried to resist as long as I could.

Shit is amazing though.  Great at providing a new perspective.  The second time I smoked I realized all of the propaganda that went into my childhood and formative years to make me think I would be ruined if I tried it.  That eventually bleed into every other aspect of my life and I leveled up in my critical thinking.

Never keeps me from being motivated.  I smoke before workouts sometimes.  Great for reducing inflammation.  I get sciatic pain from time to time and it is basically the only relief I can get.

Having said all of that, tonight I will partake, watch Veep and Silicon Valley, and eat pizza tonight.  Because all of those great things are a little greater with weed.  Why not?

Sorry for the rant.  Maybe it inspires someone to take their first toke today. Go Blue.

Home Jersey Modifications

Is "HIJACK" a term in this glossary?  (Sorry to not just read it myself.)

 

In a picture of one of today's visitor I noticed something on the home jersey that I think a few of us will be happy about.  One less block "M" on the uniform.

 

Between that spot and the helmet bumper.  It was too much.  I'm a pants only kind of guy.

Had to

I had to log in just to jump on this.  Because Brand New.

If he comes, I need Harbaugh presser opening to = opening line from oibybmtgd

This made me think. If someone is real into doing some solicited research/math,I would love to have a breakdown of total coach+coordinator salaries for all of the top 10 schools, and the percentage each coach/coordinator accounts for from said total. Hope that wasn't too long-winded. New to the board and it seems first impressions are key.

Unless The Portland Tribune is garbage.  If so, all the apolgies.
