  1. What kind if theater was this? A hospital ward? A casino bathroom?

    Cruise ship??!! :o

    There is a movie theater in Baltimore that permits the consumption of alcohol in its theater. They even sell it. It's by Landmark theaters and it's called Harbor East Theater on President St.

  2. You can also get carded for diving to the ground in an attempt to deceive the referee into thinking the opposing player committed a foul.

    It's like how NBA players flop except in soccer, it is a punishable offense

    lol. I remember watching the Azzurri flop around all day. Even I hated that. I felt like they should be on Broadway with some of their acting.

  3. Nice choice, I was just looking at cook. I don't know about all of his off field issues. I have been mostly stating away from players I wouldn't want to root for on a personal level. The kid has alot of potential to be a shut down corner on the field.

    I chose Cook ultimately because I like what he can do when he's healthy & out of trouble. He's in a contract year and the Vikings did get rid of their star CB, who played very well but he's 35-yo, lol. I have no idea when those wheels fall off and at 35 that's a huge concern. 

     

    I was very impressed with what I saw from Cook on the field. I try to consider all things when choosing players, because injuries & jail time mean the player's talent is irrelevant. In Cook's case, I felt like the risk was outweighed by the talent. I don't think the risk is as high as it was before, and it would appear that Cook is past that at face value. 

     

    He has eliminated Calvin Johnson as well as any CB I've ever seen, and that's something. He's a big and physical nasty CB and I like that about him. He tends to play it safe and doesn't go for plays, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Besides, I have ideas on that front.

  4. Made the pick. Whoever is next is on the clock. I chose Cook because I like what I've seen from him on the field. I think he has room to grow and we'll see how he does this year. He matched up well with Megatron. Arnie doesn't have any CB so I felt like this was a big problem.

    It was between him and another player but I didn't like that the player has played mostly against questionable competition so that made the choice for me. I might take him if he makes it back.

  5. i'm thinking he had this pick sorted so i'd wait, i've pm'd him too

    I'll give Arnie until about 8PM EST to make his pick. It's a weekend and he might be busy and quite frankly I'm a tad busy right now as well. If he wants me to do his picks for him for a week and I'll be beginning with this next pick, then I'm going to need some time to make a good pick. I want to look at his roster and get an idea where he's going with the team. I'll make a pick by 8PM if he hasn't selected by then.
