It's hard to watch ESPN this morning. You can tell everyone is hurt. While I found his constant use of catchphrases a little much, dude was good.Quote:

I completely forgot about the classic pairings of Stuart Scott with Rich Eisen and Dan Patrick, how many, many years ago those days were. Those were the glory days of Sportscenter. I'd stay up late just to watch them each night.Quote:

I definitely teared up watching the obit on SportsCenter last night. Listening to SVP and Rusillo now hearing more thoughts from SVP and some athletes.

Nailed it
I saw that on Facebook earlier. That was damn good by Rich. Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders however needed to shut the hell up once they realized what he was doing. Them constantly trying to say the lines along with Rich and still throwing in various comments while he was doing them sort of dragged it down a peg. It was still great, but could have been even better if Rich was able to be the lone person talking.
I'm in the camp of those who didn't like Stuart Scott. He was part of the "Sports Personality" movement that has destroyed TV and radio. That said, I would not wish him dead or anything like that.
As for Irvin and Sanders - they need to shut the hell up. You can't hear the host on any show they are on because they constantly talk over him and have a separate conversation going amongst themselves. Very annoying. Deion, in particular, likes to say "I'm praying for you" after every highlight that includes an injury and he also says "I'm gonna text you, if you're watching" after a guy has a big game. So dumb. Shut up when the host is talking, leave your imaginary friends to yourself and quit with the childish name-dropping.
Molly Qerim remains the only reason to watch NFL Network.
Is it too late to have the US and Russia get into a nuke war and destroy the world? Sweet Jesus the level of utter fucking stupidity astounds me! :fp:

She will be starting there in the Fall. I'm very excited about the opportunity she has and very proud of what she has accomplished and I'm hopeful that this is the beginning of big things for her.

Wish we had that back then. Good for her!
That is great news!! Congrats to you both!! :up:Quote:

Yeah, a lot better than expected, about $250 a month; which is why I'm a little pissed at being dicked around.Quote:

All of the tests before and after show the cpu is fine but I get a blue screen with a frown telling me I need to use my repair windows installation media to fix the computer start up. The best part... Dell no longer gives these to customers. So I contact Dell this morning and they will be sending me an istallation flash drive. However, they will ship it from Toronto... while I live an hour outside of Vancouver. Therefore it will most likely not arrive until next week. Even then there are no guarantees that I will not have to wipe the system... though my fingers are crossed that "refresh" windows will do the trick.
It's just so frustrating especially since I am on holidays this week.
Okay rant over... :(
Update... props to Dell Canada. They used Purolator Courier and got me the reinstall flash drive within two days of my request. I was up until 4AM restoring and reinstalling Windows and mostly everything I lost. It's just bizarre how I needed a full reinstall. There were no signs, no performance issues, no viruses, etc. One day the cpu started to restart itself and three hours later it was dead. I haven't had to do a full re-install since my XP days in the early 2000's. I was shocked how easy Dell has made the process. Wow!Quote:

Side note: I'm 100% certain that they'll show Age of Ultron onboard the ship so that's where I'll see it. Ironically, I saw the original Avengers for the first time on a Disney cruise.
