  1. Damshow selects Lee Evans, WR, Buffalo, and in doing so, makes me cry.
  2. This is why you weren't allowed on the Oregon Trail, I hate you. This is the worst round ever, all of my picks have gone already. Except one, and LL will kill me if I don't make it. Marc Bulger, QB, St. Louis
  3. Let me say, yes that's perfectly fine, cause Big Tuna isn't here, and thus he isn't screwing him over, plus he's okay with it too. So ok it with me, and the person picking after you and its A-OK
  4. In terms of impact on the Batman character Catwomen is behind Joker and Two Face. She's way more important in the Bat universe than Scarecrow, Poison Ivy and Killer Croc and certainly The Penguin. Riddler? Ha he was a joke until they finally got around to retooling him during Hush, and who was right there as a huge part in the Hush series? Catwoman. She's been there for all sorts of major Bat Universe events. There's a reason that in Hush and The Long Halloween she's got a feature role and guys like Scarecrow and The Riddler play the roles of lackys
  5. Altanta Evil Crimes select Rudi Johnson, RB, Cincinatti
  6. So apparently the chargers changed their uniforms? Looks like they used their 70s style uniform, but dropped the powder blue in favor of the dark blue they had been wearing. White helmets now too Why have I heard nothing about this?
  7. Robin comes into play in Dark Victory, follow up to The Long Halloween and even there it seems a little rushed. There is no need for Robin. We got 2 batman only fims out of the last batch, and only one of those was any good. Its Batman, not Batman and Robin and it doesn't have to be, been there, done that, it sucked.

    See I don't get why they got rid of Wakeboarding. Perhaps cause they have surfing now, but wakeboarding was always a good contest. I miss In Line Vert, despite the fact that there was no question who would be the top 2, but boy were those Yasutokos entertaining

    Well racing was around since the beginning of X. I remember watching street luge in Providence at the second X Games. They used to have speed climbing races, plus the BMX Downhill and in Winter X, they've got SnoCross and BoarderCross. Rally is working, but I just thinks its stupid to have two Moto races, especially when one takes like an hour and half and isn't very competitive

    X Games 13

    See, I think they should keep Moto X racing, most of the freestyle guys can do it anyways and it was quick, entertaining and easily digestable this year. As I said about SuperMoto, problem is every year two guys just dominate the event. Rally racing, I like it's new format, but I really think they should have their own course as well, they could do more jumps, more turns and just make it more fun to watch. Personally I'd like the X Games to create its own MotoX event, a combination of racing and freestyle. It'd be a best time format and a single competitor would race the track, doing trick over jumps if they choose. Tricks will knock seconds off your overall time, bigger the trick, more time knocked off, fastest time wins. I think they might have pulled BMX Dirt because of what happened to Stephen Murray, plus they added Big Air and I figure most of the dirt guys will migrate over to that. I'd be fine with SuperMoto leaving, its not even close to being an even competition and watching 2 guys race around 30 seconds ahead of everyone else for 40 laps is just not entertaining. Plus the field is now devoid of name guys besides Jeremy McGrath and Carey Hart. No Metzger, no Pastrana, I'm fairly sure Chad Reed didn't do it and I heard nothing about Eddie Seal, the first winner of SuperMoto being there. Racing certainly has a place at X, I for one miss downhill BMX racing, but they just need to figure out a good format.
  11. The Atlanta Evil Crimes select Frank Gore, RB, San Fransisco
  12. The Big Tunas select Larry Johnson, RB, Kansas City

    Colin Mcrae has no luck at X Games. Crashed in the semi finals, and I'll be very suprised if Travis Pastrana doesn't win another gold metal in Rally today. Much, much better format in Rally this year, they're going head to head as opposed to last years single best time runs.

    Ronnie Fiasst' Shaolin, thrown whilst backflipping. Pretty sure Adam Jones is the only one to do it.
  15. Someone will usually recap each round in this thread

    I had mixed feelings about the new format they were doing, only because of what happened with Lusk's crash, which basically guarentee'd Jones would advance. Of course I wanted Jones to advance and win cause I just don't like Nate Adams, little bastard claimed he was better than Pastrana. Very nice to see Jake Brown get a standing ovation. Still unbelievable that he walked away from that with just a wrist injury and a contused lung, and that he plans on doing it again next year. The problems with SuperMoto continue, as once again 2 guys got out to just a ridiculous lead that no one was ever going to cut into, which really takes the entertainment out of a 40 lap race. Problem is, like half the guys race SuperMoto alot, as its gained alot of popularity in Europe, so others are way more experienced with switching fron dirt to pavement now, making it much more uneven than in past years. Just look at Jeremy McGrath, he seems to finish lower and lower each year. Plus the field wasn't as star studded as usual. But I did get to see Carey Hart continue to suck, so that was a plus. Now regular Moto X racing, that was something. They were very smart to use the Winter X SnoCross format, quick races, with the winner moving on. Granted I had no doubt Carmichael was going to win, but alot of those qualifying races were entertaining, especially each of Pastrana's where he fought his way from dead last after horrible starts into second place. I really want to see McGrath participate next year. No one can top BMX vert riders from the UK, Bestwick and Tabron are both amazing. BMX Big Air is absolutely insane. Those guys are doing flips over the gaps and then getting 20 feet out of the quarterpipe, alot of them with no breaks on their bikes. But it looks like Kevin Robinson is the Danny Way of BMX Big Air, although Anthony Napolitian is certianly a threat with his no handed front flips. I love Step Up, great competition this year, thank god they moved it inside. First jump was higher than the winning jump last year. Clearly it'll be a 4 stroke event next year, as Ronnie Renner dominated with that bike. Surfing...meh. I can't really tell the difference between a good wave and a really good wave, so scoring never really makes sense to me. Plus they filmed it like a month and a half ago and posted the results online. Skateboard vert, and surely a gold for Lasek or Shaun White, is on today, along with Rally Car Racing, where its probably going to be Pastrana or McRae winning
  17. Don't worry, I'll leave Mike Vick for you
  18. The Draft Order, determined by Johnycomelately giving me random numbers 1-10 and me pulling names out of hat, clearly a process that has done nothing but screw both of us over. I hate you LL 1. LL 2. ACCBiggz 3. DMN 4. Big Mortified Penguin Tuna 5. JStarr 6. Thug 7. Maxx 8. Reflecto 9. damshow 10. Jonnycomelately Alright, usual snake draft. Everyone will be getting a PM with the leauge ID and Password, and unless anyone has any major objections, draft can start any time LL feels like it, it'd be nice if he at least waited till midnight tonight. If you're going to be gone for a few days, please e-mail me a list of 5 or so players you'd like and I'll get you the highest available one. So, if you have a problem with starting the draft, go ahead and reply, or PM me picks. Yes, its early but trust me when I say its nessicary to get the draft started as early as possible, as we always end up having it stall at some point. Good luck and please when making your first pick list your team name, so I can know who is who.
  19. As much as I do usually like my 2 QB, 2 Defense set up, I'm going to go more traditional this year, as thats 2 less positions we need to draft for and thus 2 less rounds in the draft, and thus less headaches for everyone and hopefully a quicker draft that ends before the final preseason game, instead of before almost the opening week of the season. So then, we'll be drafting for: 1 QB 2 RB 2 WR 1 TE 1 RB/WR 1 K 1 DEF You will then have 9 spots on your bench, however our draft is only going to go 15-16 rounds, so the rest of your bench will be rounded out by post draft free agents you pick up during our usual MAD DASH FOR FREE AGENTS! Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone is around and able to immediately participate when that happens. I"ll probably have the draft order posted today, I'll PM all of you when it is, along with the league ID and password. Then we can start drafting tomorrow if no one has any objections
  20. Craig Krenzel was 8-0 with Chicago? The only game I remember him starting for the Bears was the abysmal thanksgiving game against the Cowboys, featuring his epic battle with Drew Henson to see who could hurt their team more. Henson won that by a mile
  21. I wouldn't call Harvey Dent's appearence in DK a cameo, he's a fairly major player in it. Should be similar to his role in The Long Halloween. Whoever made the incredibly tired "brokeback joker" crack is a moron. Ledger is an excellent actor and from all the reports, is doing an amazing job with The Joker. I expect him to far out do Jack Nicholson's portrayal.
  22. Crap, now I'll just have to buy one of the other bazillion cool games coming out this holiday season. Out goes GTA, in comes Mass Effect. Fair enough trade IMO
