Jeff really needs to ban the whisper scrambling during tribal. It's bad television. We can't hear what they are saying, and because of that , there's no payoff in the end. This time, in particular, was a huge waste of airtime because it didn't seem to change anything.
I liked him as the main character's friend in Man Seeking Woman.

Why do people act like YTTV is the only provider?


Well, for me in particular, I don't care enough about football when my teams are bad to bother getting other services.
I'm just glad that this dispute coincided with LSU being a dumpster fire. Not being able to watch college football has stung a lot less this year.
I'm all for turning this into a 3D Mario debate. It may be because I have only played Galaxy on the Mario 3D All-Stars Switch version, but I am not a big fan. The motion controls are very awkward (especially having to click stars to drift through space), and some of the sphere action makes me feel a little sick.

My vote is Mario Odyssey. It's such a fun game that brings a smile to my face whenever I play. Also, it does a great job of blending in some 2D Mario.
It's kind of fitting that the 4 guys that play dorks are dressed like they had free access to the wardrobe department and came out with their best guess as to what looks good.
I don't know if my first thought would be to two hands spreading butt cheeks if the fingers weren't drawn on after the fact.

It's acting. Would you feel silly reciting the same lines 40 times in a row until the director liked the take?

Murray Divot was quite the popular dude on Facebook for a few weeks after this game.

I’m surprised they targeted Nate when this was the perfect opportunity to blindside a dangerous player like Savannah. Christina seemed like the one to push for Nate. Christina has no chance of winning if she’s going to play safe.



I was thinking about this too, but I think playing it safe is the right play if you think you can keep your alliance together. They know Rizgod has an idol. Yes, you had good intel that he would not play it, but he could change his mind. Savannah seems like a sneaky player who could have some sort of advantage. It seemed clear that Nate had nothing. If you keep taking the safe route, you may get to a point where you can nullify advantages by splitting votes. You can't really do that at this point. If you take a chance and an idol is played, it will cost your alliance a member.
I'm pulling for MC. She is one of the only people, man or woman, that seems like an athlete. She also plays the game how I imagine I would play it. I would not take any chances with an idol. If I play it and nobody votes for me, so be it.

You can just leave out the first part. No matter what your speed is, stay out of the left lane unless you are passing someone.
My point was that you said we should be doing it the way it has been done for thousands of years by not adjusting the clock. For thousands of years, we adjusted time based on the sun. For the record, I am with you on sticking to standard time.

Also, no need to be a dick about the o'clock thing. I never knew why we said o'clock. I was sure it was shortening of "of", but I never understood the need for it. When I heard it explained that when clocks were first invented, there was a need to differentiate what time you were referring to (sun based time or mechanical clock), I thought that was interesting.

Clocks should be left at standard time all the time and people need to adjust - just like it was done for thousands of years before control freaks tried to assuage their impulses and the government started giving into minorities (farmers)


The mechanical clock was invented less than 1,000 years ago. Before that, the time actually changed with the sun. The invention of the mechanical clock is what started the practice of having set times regardless of the sun. That is why we say "o'clock". When people used to use both the sun and clocks, you would specify that you meant a time based on the clock by saying "11 of the clock".

73 is elderly anyway you slice it and that "kid" is a unit.


He appears to be 5'6''. Certainly big enough to kill a 73 year old woman, but I wouldn't describe him as a unit.
Pelicans is a fine name. It fits the state. The color scheme is where they clearly missed an opportunity. Instead of differentiating the team from every other NBA franchise (thanks to the Jazz abandoning their original colors), you go with red, blue, and gold as your colors.
I have used the "Don't you know how to fricking drive" skit as an explanation of Joe Sloan calling offensive plays for a while now. I think it fits perfectly.

I seem to remember Suarez wearing one all the time when he played for Liverpool. Maybe he was going for a look or needed to cover up self-inflicted bite wounds.

Why is it so hard to define a catch in the NFL now. I feel like this wasn’t a problem 10 years ago.


Two of the most controversial catch rulings happened in 2010 (Calvin Johnson) and 2015 (Dez Bryant).
