OTA - Off-Topic Activities #12 bis

Welcome one and all to the OTA - Off-Topic Activities or Open To Anything or Oughtta Talk Alot or Open Thread All!. The best place to not discuss football at Pats Pulpit.


This is a thread for anyone who would like to enjoy some pleasant conversation that may or may not be football related. This is a place where some of us can get to know each other a little bit better, and on a slightly different level than other places on the site. A thread that may contain at times humorous dialogue, quotes, pictures, or anything else that might entertain. Remember to have a good time! But also please remember to keep it somewhat clean. We'd prefer innuendo over gory details.

Rules

All the rules are based on this: Have fun, but don't keep other people from having fun.

a) Don't troll each other, or attack other members. You learned this in kindergarten.

b) If a picture is NSFW (Not Safe For Work), do not post it as a picture. Instead post it as a link.

c) Be kind to newbies, and help them fit in. Remember to share your crayons.

d) If someone asks you nicely to steer clear of a topic, find something else to talk about.

e) Any and all other SBN and PatsPulpit rules apply. In other words, this ain't Vegas.

Rec this thread, so it stays atop the most rec'd fanposts. Unrec it when another thread is made.

I don't get the "bis" reference. "cis" and "trans" i understand

or just the practice of just skipping 13 altogether. But overall I’m confused.

"bis" is a French term used for street addresses.

I read somewhere

the way to deal with zombies is to form close, heavily defended groups. You’re not going to defeat all of them, so you have to form pockets of non-zombie areas among the larger zombified world. These pockets should be in advantageous positions, such as in a military base or on an aircraft carrier. That way, you can concentrate your defenses on these small pockets rather then trying to defend the entire world.

Packers have become too one dimensional IMO

no run game, no defense. Can you remember the last time a pass-only team won the SB? Last year their D was way better. Closest I can think of is the 2009 Saints, but it took 7 turnovers from the Vikings for them to get there.

Because they hinged entirely upon their O

They weren’t shutdown. They were built (like many Colts Ds of years pass) entirely on killing the pass when they have a lead.

They have pass-rushers and they have D-backs. They have less-than-average linebacking talent and their D-line isn’t good at stopping the run.

They’re only good if they can play against the pass and just harass a QB who is trying to play catch-up. They were godawful on the days that Rodgers didn’t give them a 20-point lead.

But who says thats bad?

Not being a shutdown D doesn’t make them one-dimensional. Look at the SB – the Steelers were coming back, and then they forced a key fumble. Were they playing with a lead? Yes. But the did the defense step up, do its job, and swing the momentum back in their favor? I’d say yes to that too.

Steelers were coming back on the ground

Packers couldn’t for the life of them stop the rush. Mendenhall fumbled because he’s dumb and had the ball too high in contact – BJ Raji had enough space to put his entire helmet between Mendenhall’s armpit and the ball. BJGE wouldn’t have fumbled then, that was entirely on bad carrying.

If they're built to stop the pass when they have a lead,

My Mom liked the Packers and I grew up watching Bart Starr and Lombardi.

My Dad liked the Bears and I liked watching Sweetness run the ball.
Once my college QB, Tony Eason, went to the Pats, I started watching them when I could (they weren’t on much in the midwest), but I did see them lose in the Super Bowl.

When I went in the military, I spent a year outside Denver wathing Elway do his thing.

After that (and spending 4 years in Europe), I went back to college and finished my degree. I moved up to MN in ’94 and started watching the Pats full time. At least when I can see them – which is much more often now.

When someone replies on a comment on Youtube, and I have to dig through like 20 pages in an effort to find the comment they’re replying to

When someone replies to my comment, and I have to dig through like 20 pages to find what I said.

When dust and crumbs and stuff get into the keybord of my laptop.. I want to dunk it in water and get all that stuff out, but I can’t. >.<

When I accidentally unplug my headphones and everyone else in the room can hear what I’m listening to. This happens surprisingly often.

When the paint rubs off plastic. Seriously, don’t paint grey plastic blue, because the blueness is going to rub off. Instead, use blue plastic. Simple.

DVD-ROMS/Floppy Disks. These crash like 8 times a day. Use flash drives.

The shift key. When I was learning to type in Kindergarten, I determined it was easier to hit the caps lock, type my letter, and then hit the caps lock again then to hold the shift key down. I’ve done this ever since, and can’t remember the last time I used the shift key. What does it exist?

Unless you've got really tiny hands I don't see how caps on/caps off is easier than holding down one key while you're hitting your letter.

You probably type even slower than I do.

Your pinky is naturally on the A key

so you just have to go sideways. To reach the shift, you have to go down and to the side.

That's if you learned to touch-type

I never had typing lessons, so my style is decidedly unorthodox. I like to think of it as a very enlightened “hunt and peck” (ca. 50 words per minute). In addition, my hands are a lot larger than normal (I can hit the “control” and “delete” buttons on my Macbook keyboard with the same hand.)

But for me, the caps lock is just a major nuisance more than anything else. What really irks me, though, are the international keyboards I have to use here, because some of them have very narrow keys, and for someone like me, that’s not a good thing.

I just wonder what the Colts are going to do

earlier in the year, I believe Peyton said he didn’t want to play on the same team as Luck. Add to that the amount of money Luck will demand, and they’ve put even more of their money and talent in the QB position while neglecting to address the rest of their team. This is what got them to 2-14 in the first place, and it seems as though they’re only making their situation worse.

Sanchez costs 14.25 and 8.5 mil against the cap in 2012 and 2013

a backup more expensive than Luck? That’s a net negative for the Colts.

I would.

A lot of pines trees and birch up that way as well as a great many lakes. It takes a little longer to go by Mille Lacs, but it’s more scenic. If you wanted to add an hour or so, you could head up to Duluth and get a little of the north shore as well then go back through the national forest to Bemidji.

We drive up from here (an hour south of the cities) and go to Duluth and such. It’s no big deal. Especially in the summer. Only issues are mosquitoes and black flies up that way.

I've been rock climbing just north of there.

Nice granite cliffs that overhang the lake about 300 feet. We rappelled down 250 ft, and then climbed back up. The lake is around 34°F in the middle of summer. You don’t want to dip your toes in it. (Not even if you’re Rex Ryan).

Yeah, that's hypothermia cold.

I was deep water kayaking in it one time and the water was like glass (which is VERY unusual), so we didn’t cover the kayak (2 man kayak). We were out there a good ways when a storm started coming over land. You couldn’t see it due to the cliffs. The water started kicking up and we had around 6 foot waves, so we were trying to head in. Without the top cover, we were taking on a lot of water.

The guy in front of me was panicking and just splashing with his paddle. I smacked him with my paddle to get his attention and got him to synchronize his paddling with mine. The lake was carrying us away from shore as the waves broke on the rocks. It was a little touchy to stay in close, but not impact the cliffs. The right combination of cutting waves and riding waves and we were just fine. It would have been a whole lot easier with that top cover.

That lake is COLD! When you are kneeling in it, it’s DAMN COLD!

Kind of reminds me of this past summer...

My friends and I were out at the Sandbar, an amazing place to have a party out in the ocean. You need a boat to get there, and it is really beautiful.

However, the day we were out, the tide was a little higher – up to my waist and chest in some areas – so not THAT high but not as shallow as the knee deep playground it can be, and the water was a little rougher. Well at some point, a tourist on a stand-up paddle board got separated from her group and was screaming “Help! HELP!!” They didn’t hear her, and she was drifting off.

The way the current was going she actually would’ve been pulled back to shore, but she was panicking. I was pretty drunk and am not the world’s strongest swimmer, but luckily, some guys from my group swam out to help her – no easy feat to swim against the current. It turned out she didn’t even know how to swim! Even with a life jacket on, she should never have been out there like that. As they were dragging her back towards her group, she was basically doing the same splashing motion you described with her paddle. Not helpful at all.

Idiots. Yeah, with 10,000 lakes, my kids learned to swim early.

If they were on an island, then they would learn as well.

You know the first rule of water life-saving is: don’t drown.

I’ve pulled a few people in during my time with the scouts, but you always want to grab them from behind. Don’t let them pull you under as their “personal floatation device”.

You know after the collapse this year, it made me wonder if Dungy suspected anything based on the way they were drafting.

I know the BB days will come to an end and TB may precede him. It’s been a good long run. I’m hoping it will last awhile.

I’ve seen a lot of teams go up and down, and it’s been nice not being on that roller-coaster.

I don't think the timeline works.

After 2008 the 2006 class was looking like a success (Addai, Bethea and Keiaho were big contributors), 2007 was looking the best it ever would (Gonzalez was coming off a 2nd very good season, Ugoh was still starting, Session had turned in a strong 1st season as a starter and Keyunta Dawson was overmatched, but they were asking a 260lb DT to play fulltime) and 2008 was too early to judge.

he left at 2009 tho, didn't he?

I still don’t think that changes the picture massively. Gonzo got hurt, Ugoh was benched for not progressing, but Charlie Johnson from the 2006 class is the one that took his job and was passable. Brown had some trouble, but they drafted him knowing he couldn’t block.

During the entire 2010 and the entire 2011 season, I haven’t seen him ask for a flag once. Not a single time. Infact, I can only think of him asking for a flag on one occasion, which is hardly worth the hate he gets for it.

Sports Guy Mailbag!

http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/7459090/the-return-all-football-mailbag

Q: Did you see NBC’s pregame show on Saturday? They had Barkley on because he was hosting SNL later that night. Barkley picked the exact opposite of what Rodney Harrison picked for the two games. They argued and Barkley said, “Bet you dinner.” Seated between Harrison and Barkley was Tony Dungy, who suddenly got very serious and looked at Barkley and said in a soft voice, “Oh, we can’t bet on the show.” Barkley just kept going, “We are talking about dinner!” Very funny moment between two guys who probably never would speak to each other any other way.
— Patrick, Boston


SG: Saw it, loved it. I’m going out on a limb and saying that Tony Dungy and Charles Barkley don’t have a ton in common. That exchange would have been the highlight of Round One if not for the new playoff OT rule losing its virginity with Tim Tebow, and then, Tebow only lasting 11 seconds.

We had the game muted (my wife hates the announcers), and I no sooner told my Steeler's fan wife the part of the rule where a TD would still win,

when Denver scored a TD. She grabbed the remote, turned the power off, and said, “That’s it, right?”

I agreed, but turned it back on to see if it was ruled good.

So to get hyped for the Denver game, I went back and watched highlights from the old SB teams of the early 2000s.. Ty Law was great, especially against that game against Manning. Really hope we can get someone like him again.

Right now, I’d say we’re 80% offense and 20% defense. Ideally, we’d e about 60/40 or 7/30. I’d say in 2007 we were about 60/40.

Your right about me not remembering the SB teams. Part of the reason I became a Pats fan was because they won the first SB I watched, though I don’t think I could name more then about 5 players on that team. Really, 2006-7 is when I started watching consistently, and 2010 is when I started to follow stuff like stats, matchups etc.

Ok heres something I've been thinking about

In the 2007 Pats vs Giants SB, we got the ball back with 3 time outs and 30 seconds. If I remember correctly, we basically threw only deep passes to Moss, none of which really worked.

Now, I’m wondering: If we swapped our 2011 offense into that situation, how likely is it that we drive down and win it? 3 time outs means all the stuff between the numbers would be open, and the Giants would be playing to avoid a big play. Look at how the Saints and 49ers traded scores Saturday. If we started at the 30-40 yard-line, two quick 10 yard passes + 10 YAC (which is entirely possible since we own at YAC and they’d be playing off the receiver) and we’re near the red-zone. 3 timeouts should be more then enough. Only thing that I can think might stop us is that we would run out of time because of good down-field coverage or something like that, but teams in that situation usually are willing to give up quick completions.

Thoughts?

Something interesting happening this year.

It’s been a time to cast off back monkeys.

Pats won in Denver which has always been a problem for them.
They won in FedEx Field, which Brady and Belichick have never done before.
They swept the Jets after the offseason loss last year, and the Jets have been sitting home in January.
They shook the one and done off their backs in convincing style.

If I had to guess, I’d say they beat the Ravens in the AFCCG to overcome 2009, and then
beat the NY Giants in the Super Bowl to make up for 2007.

Is 2011 a cleansing year for the Pats?

My wife's a Steeler's fan and there's at least one Harbaugh she can't stand.

She’ll be cheering harder for the Pats next week than I physically can. The kids actually go in another room to watch because she can really bring the heat, and they’re afraid of permanent ear damage. Or at least I think that’s what they said. Sounded like, “Mumble, mumble, mumble,” after that last Steelers game.

I haven't tried it like this, but my mom and sister tried it and say it's good as new

you freeze the leftover pizza, then when you want some, set the oven to preheat to 350 and put the pizza in immediately. When the oven’s done pre-heating the pizza’s ready. Tip came from my uncle who has some type of chef-type job, forget exactly what.

I just toss it in the oven at 425°F for 8-9 minutes.

Which works well for meat pizzas, and tastes good enough that we always order extra for leftovers.

The Lawrence Welk Show went to 1971, and was syndicated (first run) to 1982.

So yeah, I saw it live some and also in some re-runs. Back then you watched whatever your parents had on the one TV set. Back then it was a tube set that took around five minutes to warm up – plenty of time to grab some cereal before Saturday morning cartoons. Only three channels for us (ABC, NBC, and CBS). FOX showed up MUCH later. Our set was still in black and white until around 68. It took a long time for stations to switch to color broadcasting, and even then some shows were still in black and white. Eventually, they all switched to “Living Color”.

all depends on Peyton's health come early March

I don’t think Irsay would cut ties with a healthy Peyton, but if there’s real doubt about his status, he has to.

they can't keep both because once Peyton gets the 28mil option bonus

it’ll be instant cap hell to cut or trade him for at least 3 years.

I don’t like people hitting me, but it’s a pretty common playful thing people do. I ask them to stop, and they have a really hard time doing so.

It sounds a little odd when I say it out loud though: “I got mad at so-and-so, because they wouldn’t stop punching me even after I asked nicely.”

But then he gets on his high freaking horse about not just morals, but Kantian morals, after treating visitors over there like crap.

He had plenty of help from his video assistant to get those rings.
.
Remember… I’m not saying he isn’t a great QB, I’m saying he has no problem begging & pleading with the referees for calls when his prep & skills aren’t enough to get the job done. That may be ok with you since the method is just a means to an end, as you stated. It isn’t ok with me because if I can’t apply the most basic Kantian moral theory to my actions and conclude that I’m doing the right thing, I don’t want the reward. — by Evan Skev

As a kid, I wasn’t that into football, but I rooted for the 49ers in the playoffs. I’m not gonna lie – it probably helped that they were good back then! I lost a huge amount of respect for the team after the training film incident.

I wouldn’t need to root for a meteorite in a Giants-Ravens SB, but my attention to the game would probably be pretty divided.

Wikipedia is only good in English. Other languages’ version are full of crap and mistakes. I could use the English Wikipedia, sure.

My teachers discouraged us from using Wikipedia

not sure why.. They said it was because “anyone can edit Wikipedia,” but I’m more inclined to think it was because of the fact that Wikipedia isn’t censored. They would have us go to smaller, inferior, child-targeted sites related to only a few topics, which was bad for everyone.

In high-school they let us lose our own sites, but still seem biased against Wikipedia.

Agree 100%

I don’t see pirating as that big of a deal. Its been going on for decades – heck, my parents recoded tv shows, in a perfectly legal way and yet a way that would allow them to skip ads, share stuff with their friends, etc. And yet, if you do pretty much the exact same thing on the internet, its jail time.

The question is, though, why were the piraters in the US? Surely there are countries that wouldn’t turn them over and don’t have as strict a laws…

Punish the few for the infringements of the many

Not ideal, but it’s effectively the only way to set an example and create a precedent – you absolutely annihilate the people you catch, because you know you can’t catch them all. Make the risk of punishment outweigh the likelihood you won’t get caught.

We have a beach, sort of.

It’s the nasty lake water and not the swim apparel that decreases the enjoyment.

Let’s say it’s better for water skiing than swimming.

The other lake in town is worse, and motor boats aren’t even allowed there.

Of course I grew up on the Mississippi, so I’ve seen water that’s MUCH worse.

We have a great lake here

Theres a river that goes along one side of our town, emptying some of its water into a lake. The lake has a nice sand beach, mini-golf coarse, basketball court, two eating areas w/ a roof but no walls and picnic tables, a walking/biking path, and a snack bar. The other half of the lake goes into a residential area, allowing those who border it to have little docks for jet-skis and boats. Theres also some wetlands between the river and the lake, for people who like to look for frogs or play airsoft in a Vietnam-like setting.

The river itself is ok, its pretty long and I imagine it would be fun to just jump in a boat and see where you go, but I’ve never done it. Recent years its been massively flooded, but when its dry theres usually a bunch of dead fish which sort of ruin the entire area w/ their smell.
