There's an arc: he's trying to **** Pamela. That's more realistic than the arc of BB, Deadwood, or Sopranos.

I just start-finished Entourage. Never seen an episode before.

Thoughts? I thought it was a good show, basically Friends for bros. Seriously overrated, though. It was GOOD, and people go ****ing crazy for it.

Since I've been to India I of course feel a strong connection to my Indian homiez, but never been to Somalia so nothing to talk about there obv.

Lol @ me.

I mostly lived around UMN East Bank (where the math/sci at, g!). Yes, def Somalis around that area (who should be counted as black imo, but not sure how good they are for pickup bb).

But yeah, go ride the 16 to St Paul and you can probably recruit there.

Confirmed hardly any black people here. But they all play basketball so I kinda know all dozen or so of them. /moderate hyperbole.

I'd open the line close to JF -110 against Yugo, and that might be high. I played in jr. high ('98 and '99) and just picked it back up like 14 months ago on and off. But yeah, similar styles. It would probably come down to HCA, tbh.

I just got back from the park. It was pretty lulzy to play my buddy. I mentioned I spotted him 4.

Final score: 11-4 victory for me. And we played loser gets the ball after every score. Lolol.

I'm about to do a more in depth write up in my log (mostly for me)

[Aidan]

After that performance, line has shifted to -170

[JohnnyFondue]

If you guys watched me play 5 on 5 it would probably be YUGO -220 so I was (roughly) splitting the difference

I am a lot better at 3/2/1 on 1 ball tho

[Aidan]

This is a straight 1-1 challenge, right? Not putting you two as captains of opposing teams and having you draft for starting fives...

[JohnnyFondue]

Ya haha. Now that I think about it, as 2 defensive guys, it would probably be like 3-2 after 20 minutes.

Prob won't be until next spring when one is forced to visit the other for BBall play offs

[Aidan]

Home and away series? Def needs to be live streamed somehow

[JohnnyFondue]

Streamed maybe, taped for sure

Lol:

Very disappointed people didn't get the obvious troll from a poster like dt.

And yeah, Deadwood is very obviously worth the watch even if it ended in a lame fashion (writers' strike, actors found other work or something like that I think - it was supposed to be renewed). Possibly one of the best characters in any TV show ever makes it easily worth it just by himself.


Can I get 0.1 g of fish and a lbs of chips prease? Thx.

[JohnnyFondue]

I'm trying to figure out which hurts my brain worse. Thinking of how retarded it is for McD's to not allow anyone else to serve french fries

-or-

how upset (i imagine) everyone is getting about it

That's basically the only reason I watched Season 3. All the "good" characters' storylines were mediocre imo.
