PrintWhat the hell happened to the game thread Matt had put up? Did it dissapear?
In case the thread doesn't magically reappear maybe we can use this post as a game thread. One that will forever be remembered as the crappiest game thread post in the history of PtR.
75 words is such a difficult number to reach, one that at first you think it will be easy. But no, it is not. Razzmatazz.

Yeah, I posted one yesterday, thinking the game was yesterday. When I realized it wasn’t, I deleted it, thinking LatinD would have one up today (no big deal that he doesn’t). Plus I misspelled platypus. How embarrassing.
Thanks for coming to the rescue Hipuks.
Shit. I was planning on doing the game thread and saw yours and then didn’t do it. It is still alive via mysa.com.
I’ll bet you went to the espn scoreboard and got fooled by the fact they forward you to the next day if there are no games for that day.

my official paid-for nba league pass broadband is choppy as hell as well, and thats the feed that justintv link is also coming from, so i wonder if theres something wrong in general with league pass broadband…..

One guy who always puts Spurs game feeds on JustinTv said his feed wasn’t working at all. I suspect a terrorist attack from Suns fans.
they can’t beat us on the court, so they resort to this? those bastards.

shorter of breath and one day closer to death
tolli-dog played some good D on a couple of trips!!!!! and got a board or two as well.
whoa
not to change sports on you all, but i just looked i on the sugar bowl and saw this:
utah 14
alabama 0
7+ to go in the 1st
Black is white, up is down… It begs the question, though: if Utah were to defeat Alabama impressively, what logical argument could you make that they don’t deserve to be considered for the national championship? College football is so frustrating.

He actually made a 3 that was a half beat after the shot clock.

3 of our starters have combined for 3 points. Bowen has 3 points. I long for the days when Bruce’s offense was in the starting line up.

You KNOW Memphis is dogging it downcourt when FinDog betas them down court for the layup.

Alright peeps, we gotta get to two hundred comments.
I don’t care how inane they are, you gotta post something.
Wow. We suck. 4 seconds on the shot clock on the out of bounds play and we give up a dunk to Gasol going down the middle of the lane.

Ok. I have pretty much done nothing since I got home on Monday. I even didn’t drink for a day.

Listening to the Great Gig in the Sky, can’t really write anything or it would just sound like someone moaning.
Do you listen to the older stuff like Meddle, Obscured By Clouds, and Ummagumma?
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Jan 2, 2009 8:33 PM CST up reply actions
I owned them ALL on vinyl except Atom Heart Mother and Piper (I had Relics instead) up through the Momentary Lapse of Reason.
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Jan 2, 2009 8:37 PM CST up reply actions
I forgot to answer this one. I checked and “Ibiza Bar” is from their album “More” which is really called “Soundtrack for the film More”. I listened to it, but I had forgotten about that song. Piper is their first one, the one that has “Bike” and “See Emily Play”, it’s pretty different from their later stuff.
Why does Tony suck at free throws? How can his midrange jumper have improved but not this free throws?
Honestly, I think he’s a little like Shaq, in that he doesn’t care enough. He feels like he’s a good enough player. That’s right, I’m a little drunk, and have a cold, and want to punch Tony Parker right in the face for missing too many free throws and posing shirtless with a basketball.

Can we please DESTROY this team by 3 quarter time and have a relaxing 4th??
(though that’s never the Spurs way)
Yet another rhetorical question. You are full of them today.

Just so everyone knows, my wife and I have discovered that 1) Franzia box wine is the best medicine for a cold and 2) RV (with Robin Williams) decreases your IQ by one point for every ten minutes you watch it.

Funny. I was going to recommend that you guys check out the Wine Cube at Target. The Cab/Shiraz blend is pretty damn decent. It is made by Trinchero which is the upscale branch of Sutter Home.
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Jan 2, 2009 8:40 PM CST up reply actions
I don’t need points, because we’re already married.
However, RV is her idea. We go through and record movies on the DVR, and she recorded this one. I told her “I remember the previews for this movie, it looked absolutely gawdawful.” Did she listen? No. So tonight, we wanted to watch a movie, and I gave in, but warned her that 1) it would be terrible and 2) it’s like “Jumanji,” once we start, WE HAVE TO WATCH THE WHOLE THING, as punishment for her poor recording judgment.
I think I win this round, but it’s a Pyrrhic Victory, given that the movie is on the TV making me dumber as we speak. At least I have extremely pixilated Spurs to distract me.

What’s up with all the close ups of Fab?

Of course, SiMA has a bad feeling right now.
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Jan 2, 2009 8:44 PM CST up reply actions
The bad feelings for Friday were already maxed out watching Tech get shitstomped in the Cotton. Didn’t even watch our 9th grizzlie game this year; too busy cursing college football and smoking Cohibas on the deck.
Nice that you’re still toying with the mojo by mocking me though.

Threw me for a second. I haven’t listened to all of Dark Side in some time. I think I only own Animals on CD. Great disc that gets NO radio play so it is still fresh for me.

4 seconds on the shot clock for a side out of bounds play. I’m betting they get a dunk.

The lunatic is the hall, the lunatics are in my hall. The paper holds their folded faces to the floor, and everyday, the paperboy bring more.
If you want to convince us you’re not a stoner, quoting Pink Floyd lyrics is not the most effective method.

I’ll “fall on your neck with a crack” and let you know.
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Jan 2, 2009 8:57 PM CST up reply actions
True dat. Hey, I’m not a stoner. If I was I would come right out and say, I mean, that’s what PtR is all about, SiMA admits he like Cracker Barrel, ATS admits he’s a nerd, LatinD that he would rather watch a Spurs game then go out with his GF, I admit I like fish way too much.
We can all be our true selves here.
Yeah, we haven’t scored in the last 3 minutes since we went up 19.

You can’t do multiples of the lead sound in the syllable. It’s makes it a stutter. And that is WAY less cool.

isn’t it time to admit that the 3 original stars wars movies were flukes?

That 3rd Star Wars movie pretty much sucked and was a omen.

Remember when you were young? You shone like the sun…Shine ooooooon you crazy diamond. Now there’s a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky, Shine ooooon you crazy diamond.
Words this late in the game. That 3 was early in the shot clock and when you have a big lead this late you ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY HAVE TO WORK THE CLOCK.

We are going great guns now and have blown by the 200 comment mark.

I think at this point our Cracker has to be a little nervous with all his bad Mojo.
Wow. Pop came back with Tim, Manu, and Tony. I guess Pop is nervous too.
