Just watching the Flair 30 for 30 and man ESPN does so well with these. Screw up other stuff but it's well made so far and is great for anyone who was ever a wrestling fan.

Anybody have an educated view about the best Rockets blog (or blogs)? I am not seeing that much activity at the several I found by google.

Just started Peaky Blinders and it's a fantastic series. Well worth your time.

He’s back on the sideline in crutches, tweeting. Dude is tough.

Wow, unreal. Sure that's a motivator for the team.

I got called an a-hole by "coach" nick. I think my life is complete.

And like a moron I signed up for reddit again. Trying not to post, because it's bad for my health. I wish you could lurk and subscribe to subs, would be easier. But if they lose the next game or 2 I'm deleting it because I'll be convinced it was a jinx. It's unbearable when your team is losing and mildly bearable when they're playing acceptably.

Edit: Bah deleted it because I'm superstitious. Ignore my insanity. I'm on like my 12/13th account lol.

Maybe you can get a discount as a retired mod.

Not totally OT but snow sucks.

Went to the game on Friday and PA got a random snow storm apparently nobody knew was coming, even major highways weren't salted or plowed. It took 3.5 hours to make a 1.5 hour drive and the guy I was supposed to meet up with for the first time in over 10 years made it half way and had to turn back By the time I found that out I was too far along and didn't feel like eating the money for $200 tickets. He was cool enough to still repay for his ticket and the game was great but turning onto a major roadway at a green light and doing a 180 in your car, even when nobody is going to hit you, isn't ideal.

So brought it up in the GT but Stranger Things....

I've never binge watched a show ever. The last show I got really into was the original 24, and just bought my parents a Netflix gift card for Xmas. They plan on keeping it and told me you could share the login so I checked it out and watched 5+ episodes today, so almost done season 1. Just an awesome show.
