My roommate in college got straight up, roundhouse kicked in the beer gut (Patrick Swayze Roadhouse style) and he fell backwards over a potted plant and knocked himself out.

Even though my roommate was my buddy and the other guy was a guido, I seriously wanted to buy the other guy a beer and tell him that was the coolest shite I had ever seen in my life.

A fair point but you could also make a thread about solid players who are probably overrated (or over-remembered) because of one epic moment.

Norm Van Brocklyn
Bobby Thompson
Bill Mazeroski

On the flip side you have players who were good but are remembered mostly for something ignominious.

Second time he was in jail, lost a lot of weight and squeezed through a ceiling vent. That is when he went to Fla. and killed those gals at FSU and a 12 yr. old girl walking home from school.

When Bundy busted out the second time, he bought a plane ticket and flew to Michigan hoping to trick authorities into thinking he fled to Canada when he intended to head south. He went to a bar in Ann Arbor and watched the Rose Bowl which was Michigan v. Washington. Bundy was from Seattle and a big Washington fan. Washington upset Michigan and Bundy was the only person in a bar full of Michigan fans cheering for UW. This drew a lot of attention and dirty looks.

Later he stole a car and drove down to Florida. There was a poster on the Auburn board who says he was helping his girlfriend move into an apartment somewhere in Alabama that weekend. While he was inside the apartment moving something, he swears Bundy approached his girlfriend in the parking lot asking if he could help her and asking a bunch of weird questions. When he walked out Bundy changed his tune and left. They didn't know who he was until the FSU stuff broke a few weeks later. They swore up and down it was him. The timeline fit but who knows. Crazy dodge if true. A lot of serial killers probably bail if things aren't just right. A lot of potential victims probably don't know how lucky they were.

Does the NIT count?

The counter-argument term I remember hearing was "tossed salad". The argument being that immigrants don't really assimilate but rather all share a new common "salad dressing" in the form of some new language and customs while maintaining strong differences as the bulk of their old unique heritage.

That list is awful - has to be clickbait.

Without putting much thought into it, here is how I would rank them:

10. Munich
9. War of the Worlds
8. Close Encounters of the Third Kind
7. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
6. Saving Private Ryan
5. Jurassic Park
4. E.T.
3. Schindler's List
2. Jaws
1. Raiders of the Lost Ark

I won't bother to rank the rest other than to say:

Underrated: Empire of the Sun, AI, War Horse
Overrated: The Color Purple, Hook, The Post

That's based on public opinion, not the retarded list.

I think I read that was an option she paid extra for. And I'm not kidding. It was called the Superman experience or something.

I love how they have the sign that says "we will not be silenced".

They don't want to silence you. They are re-broadcasting you every chance they get to make fun of you and push the public needle in the opposite direction that you think it will move when you do this batshit nonsense.

Is she wearing the original Air Jordans?

I'm having flashbacks of going to the "bad mall" in the '80s.

It's not even the biggest choke by a Frenchman.

Jean Van de Vele had a three shot lead going into the par 4 18th hole of the British Open and proceeded to turn into a worse golfer than I am.
