An all-purpose thread for your all-purpose needs. If you happen to watch the Network tonight, you have Total Divas at 8:00 ET, NXT at 9:00 and Superstars at 10:00. 

If you're watching baseball, congratulations, your team must still be in the race. There is still September and then playoffs in October. Longest....season....ever.

The Simpsons marathon is still on, but people stopped caring a week ago when the funny ones ended.

Preseason football continues, and college football opens up the schedule tonight.

Lots going on, plenty to chat about. Join in and assume meltdown position.

    Just go to Dock Muraco's thread from earlier. The Hard Knocks video. Then read the comments. Then come back here and report to us what you found. That's your assignment.

    You're a Reds and Panthers fan? That's... odd, but no more strange than a guy from Buffalo being an Avalanche and Niners fan, I guess.

    Random for the auto racing fans out there: name your favorite and least favorite tracks. For me favorites would be Spa, Pocono, and the Montreal GP circuit, least favorites are Monaco, Bristol, and Charlotte.

  8. One thing that sucks about being a Crimson Tide fan is there are too many blowout games that aren't even fun.

  24. Adam "Colorado" CurryAugust 28, 2014 at 6:14 PM

    Speaking as someone who's been a cook his whole life, you don't do it like that. Though I get the feeling that he's not nearly as big of an asshole as he appears to be on TV.

    Forgot about Indy. I've heard of Woodbine but I'm not familiar with it.

  42. It wasn't until I read Bourdain's take on him that I really came around. He basically explained that he's not nearly that big of an ass in person and the reason he is that strict with his staff is because...he's a fucking four star chef. Bourdain also basically said that Gordon looks at his restaurants as boot camps and he likes the idea that his name on someone's resume proves that person can get through any kind of stressful situation a kitchen can present. It was a great chapter in, um, I think Nasty Bits.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yeah, I know. I'm spoiled. But come on, no one enjoys expected blowouts.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I went to 2 great lectures today, one about Feminism, black movement and LGBT history and the other about the Police issues of Rio.

  45. Adam "Colorado" CurryAugust 28, 2014 at 6:19 PM

    I murder that track in the video game, it's like the opposite of Monaco, I don't want to even bother because I know there's no chance of me losing.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Adam "Colorado" CurryAugust 28, 2014 at 6:21 PM

    The chef I work for can be a complete prick, but as soon as he clocks out he's the nicest guy in the world.

  47. Find joy where you can. Good luck. I hope it all works out for you.

    Thanks for the recap Tommy, do you think Zayn will ever win the NXT title?

    ReplyDelete
  52. Anytime. I think he will yeah, though I think they've missed most of the boat with him already.

    I LOVE THE B.O.D.

  54. Cassady. Daniel's FragileX made him too SAWFT to bear.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I'm loving William Regal as NXT GM although I will miss him on commentary but they could solve this by having him do both like the last 4-5 months on NXT Redemption. Speaking of NXT Redemption if they created the NXT Championship there before it ended Tyson Kidd would definitely be the one who would deserve it the most. On Full Sail NXT however I have no clue how to pick to win the Fatal 4 Way NXT title match between Neville, Zayn, Kidd and Breeze.
