  1. you guys see the futility of this arguement, right?
  2. Actually there was only one Stalin and one Jeffrey Dahmer. I do agree with your base sentiment though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No bull****, mother teressa was a BITCH and evil. She was all about "suffering".
  3. I beat somebody up pretty dang badly once. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lets leave your mother out of this
  4. our need to kill zombies and demons to save mankind?
  5. We are human beings. We are a violent and adversial species. Just look how we entertain ourselves. Just look how we resolve our problems. From the cradle tothe deathbed, it is in our instinct to wage war, to kill one another. For there to be a lasting peace we need to remove human element out of the equation. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Someone played alot of combat-boy in Fallout, huh
  6. It just struck me as a tad biased and uninformed
  7. You know, you're right. We're American damn it. We shouldn't be saying it, we should be investing billions into doing it.
  8. depends on the slurs. If its "your momma" jokes, he obviously over-reacted. If he was telling him how he was going to rape his mother and sister, not so much
  9. Shoudn't the title read: "Fringe groups supported by Lebanon invade Israel and take hostages"
  10. No doubt they were big offenders, but they wern't the only ones by any means. side note: Viewership of the cup was up 183% in the US (no numbers, just heard it on the radio).....wonder how many of those will watch next time? Bad press is better than no press I guess.
  11. interesting take on Zidane and flopping from a writer who mainly writes about American Football (I happen to mainly agree with it): I felt to bits about him not diving and how the announcers seemed to accept (and even encourage) flops were spot on. I've never even heard of Zidane before this cup (shocking to many of you, I gather), but I could tell pretty quick that he is the type of guy that the cup needs more of. Mentality wise, skill wise is obvious.
  12. He means against us not against the U.S. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ha, my bad.
  13. in the quote it says the US, not Aus, so I'm lost...
  14. IMO, the "red" roman family is the the most difficult. You just make so much money of sea trade. and installing the expansions shouldn't matter, other than they automatically install the patches
  15. So, having watched the cup all the way through and giving it a fair chance, I have to say that it kinda sucked. Hell, I wanted to like it, I did. A few things just bugged the **** of me: Flopping and bitching at the refs is a HUGE issue. It happens to a lesser degree in US leagues (especially the bitching), most notably the NBA, but even there one bad call doesn't usually result in a massive change of the game. There are just too many points scored in a game. Still, it's a problem in the NBA. The Cup took flopping to a ridiculous level and, at least for me, sucked the enjoyment out of most of the games. I can't relate with a team that spends most of their time getting in the box and falling down hoping for kick. That wouldn't be so bad, as those teams would just lose, but the refs were calling obvious flops and it was altering games with goals that are hard to come by. The worst is that most players do one of two things after the flop: Stand up with their hands in the air with that "where's the call" look on their face or notice that no ref noticed their flop and immediately stop rolling around in agony to stand up and start running like nothing happened. It just seemed far too accepted by the players of the field, the fans, and the announcers. It was a running joke on ESPN tho. It just seems that the refs wern't doing anything about it, the game needs to find a way to self regulate. Unfortunatly, playing a man down is for the rest of the game is a bitch, so there again the rules and refs prevent a good game from being played. For those who said they cared about the US getting into the sport cuz it was good for the game, all this will certainly not help with the general US image of what soccer is and about the type of people who play it. In a word: soft. I've got more reasons, but I have to go, so I'll get back to them later. EDIT: O ya, I read that someone suggests FIFA review game film and essentially hand out red cards (pulling the player from the next game) for flops. EDIT: found it
  16. I did, not as funny as the first, but better action. I prefer the first one.
  17. you think Keira got skinny.... http://www.wwtdd.com/index.php?type=one&i=1117
  18. hmmmm.......I wonder if AC is a standard option on a mech
  19. thier coming out with a S3 version...I assume in black
  20. Well they're essentially gigantic fireworks... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Except I lit bottle rockets that apparently traveled farther than their new missle. SO really, I think I should be given assurances that the US won't attack me and a light-water nuclear reactor
  21. Civ 4.......and I just lost an epic game by ONE TURN (I was one turn away from space race and the Mongolians beat me to it)
  22. ^to the neck no less The only valid "grab a body part and roll on the groud" I've seen all game. New rule: If you have to grab your leg before you even hit the ground, in that twisting way the Power Rangers used to do, you have to come out of the game. Otherwise, suck it up.
