True, but they aren't there yet. It has been nice knowing they aren't good enough.

Like Mashone was going to die....like they were going to kill Carl, was hoping so much that Neegan just beat him to death. Sasha was predictable for me.
I think it would of been hilarious for Neegan to just beat the hell out of the tiger with out hesitation.
Finally caught up. That is funny, I think it would have been great if Zombie Sasha just ate Negan's face off and then next season they could start over and forget about this one.![]()

Now that is hilarious! ![]()

I'm holding you to this! Oh wait, the boards will be gone, darn it. But I will still hold you to it, you just won't hear about it. ![]()

That will not stop me from complaining about it. ![]()
22 hours ago, Moderator 3 said:As the off-season wraps up, I'm pretty excited. I think we have a good mix of young and veteran talent. Still worried about pitching, but I guess I'll just have to hope for the best.
I guess there's no reason to make a regular season thread and post predictions, etc.
It was fun going back and reading what everyone predicted after the season was over last year.
I feel like we failed by not adding a number one starter. That is what we need to push us over the top. Same old story, but I'm still hopeful!

He needs to just continue to improve and demonstrate some consistency and he will be a star in this league.
And NOT commit stupid, hot headed penalties!

And take away everyone's favorite topic? Now why would you want to do something like that?

I so agree with this. Mike Preston's job is to stir up controversy. Not a reliable source by a long shot.
1 hour ago, usmccharles said:Just depends on the genre you like. The Newsroom is a great show and is only 2 and a half seasons. Westworld is a sci-fi genre that is very mind blowing. True Detective Season 1 is easily at the top of my list of favorite shows of all time.
I love sleep as well, until im binge watching.
Lol about the sleep. And thanks for the recommendations.

Why are people thinking that he is even a reliable #3 on any team? He's just not as good as he might think which is why there was not a lot of teams even interested. They have seen the tape on him even from his 1 good year and still----crickets
That is why he only got a one year deal. He definitely thinks he is better than he really is. He should just go play and prove that he is better instead of blaming the Ravens.
21 hours ago, usmccharles said:I watched Bates for a bit, I think I finished season 2. It was mainly because I ran out of stuff to watch, but it didn't interest me enough to keep me around.
Vikings, Black Sails, Billions, Westworld, The Americans, Homeland, Better Call Saul, Game of Thrones, Fargo, True Detective, Black Mirrors, Ray Donovan., The Night Of, Boardwalk Empire, The Newsroom, The Wire, Mr Robot, Silicone Valley, Tyrant, Southland. Go waste time on all those shows...
You didn't watch long enough to watch the development of Norman's mental illness, too bad.
And wow that is a lot of shows, when do you have time to sleep?
So if you had to pick only one to recommend, what would it be? I like to sleep. ![]()
23 minutes ago, usmccharles said:I believe it was Dr Jenner in Atlanta told Rick that they were all infected and that's why you see people in the early seasons that are shot turn into Zombies (like Shane) or a guy that hung himself turned as well. Why the show has stopped that is beyond me....actually no its not: the show is garabge
Lol. Now that is funny...and sad because it is true.
I wanted to add that Bates Motel is worth watching. Terrific acting from most of the leads.
Sorry for the interruption. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming. ![]()
4 minutes ago, usmccharles said:I could of swore there was a point when this was brought up in the show. And for some reason it comes to mind that it was something to do with that everyone is basically infected in a sense...I cant exactly remember what was said, or maybe im just way too tired right now,
I do remember them talking about how everyone was infected, but not how that related to them not being able to use the blood. Though they did use it when they were in Alexandria. I must have missed it then. Maybe I fell asleep, lol. If you could remember sometime I would love to know the answer because it annoys the heck out of me.
8 minutes ago, usmccharles said:I honestly don't even think the zombies actually pose a threat to humans...its the disgusting acts of human towards humans.
Agreed. So I have to ask this question. Why, oh why, did they not utilize the zombie blood/guts as a zombie deterrent more? They used it in season 1 and not again until season 5. The main characters could have used that so many times and it was as if they "forgot" that it worked. It made no sense to me at all. That was a major plot flaw in my opinion and kind of insulted my intelligence.
6 minutes ago, usmccharles said:I was asking what villains in TWD you liked better, im not familiar with Supernatural. Since you don't watch a lot of tv, I really wouldn't waste more time on this show but im sure you are like me and just too 'pot committed.'
Yes, I feel like I invested so much time into this show that I can't stop watching...it may get good again, lol. And, I guess when you ask me that question my answer is I don't really like any of them, lol. No wait, the zombies, yeah, that's my answer.
11 minutes ago, usmccharles said:I mean, its kind of hard to disagree with who is my favorite character lol. I just enjoy the aspect of how he is, how ruthless he is, and I find him absolutely hilarious. Simon is also a guy I continuously find amusing. What other villains with redeeming qualities are you a fan of?
Also, the Gregory and Jesus monologue was just terrible. I cant buy either one in that situation, I was excited to see Jesus develop more but there is something about him that I just cant stand
Lol, I guess I didn't express that quite right. Of course Negan can be your favorite. I just think they could have done so much more with his character. Favorite villains? Amanda from Nikita and Crowley from Supernatural are two examples. And speaking of Gregory, the actor who portrays him, Xander Berkeley, was my previous least favorite villain (as Percy) in Nikita, lol. I'm not sure about Jesus. I think I could like him, but I don't yet. Disclaimer, I don't watch a lot of tv. It needs to be really good in order for me to spend my time that way, hence the disappointment in this season's TWD.

Can't wait for the WBC Finals tonight. Can Jonesie do it one more time? From now on, he'll always be "Captain America" to me.
One inning is usually always his downfall though. If you pitch 5 great innings and one horrible one, you are still horrible. I am mean like that. ![]()
Jones has been impressive!
On 2/21/2017 at 10:39 AM, usmccharles said:Honestly I don't really care for any of the original characters, I liked Glen, but yea......I actually like the villains more, Neegan is easily my favorite character even with him hardly being around.
Homeland I think was actually a good episode on Sunday night. But still, I doubt anything is going to redeem this season.
Bad news for anyone who liked Marco Polo (I did), its been canceled.
Billions is finally back! Awesome first episode.
At the recommendation of a lot of people, I started with Season 1 of The Walking Dead just after Christmas and I am almost caught up. I'm about four episodes behind right now. I have to disagree about Negan (though I do think he is a good actor, especially on Supernatural). I definitely don't need to see more of him. The most interesting villains are the ones who at least have some redeeming qualities. He is so one dimensional. I totally agree that I feel like I am watching the same thing over and over again. After investing all that time watching, I really think they have run out of ideas as this season has been a huge disappointment.
Bad Ubaldo showed up yesterday. Sigh.
"Shoulder discomfort" for Tillman. Not good.
Well, this is a bummer. This is one of the better message boards that I have been a part of.
