Damn, where do u live in Siberia? lol jk anyways i rarely watch the games on TV since im usually on the computer... so i watch it live so to speak on ESPN.com... you click on NFL then Scoreboard when the game is on... not the same thing but good enough...

No, we just feel we watch enough TV with the regular broadcast channels, and don't need to pay more money to waste more time. Yes there are times I would like to have cable, but no biggie. Priorities. I would rather get a killer dj/urban MTB with my money right now.

I have "watched" games online with that little field showing drives, and the play by play text descriptions. I think I like the one at NFL.com best.

You must've missed that big ordeal...he went on and on about how it was ok or something to fuck married wives...etc...

It was me and Crimson Velvet against him and it got heated

 

[Zephyrus]

fyi, in English we only use one period at the end of sentences not three

I think that semicolons should come back in style.

 

[Pessimism]

I use them all the time; albeit not always in a "proper" manner.

I use them all the time; albeit not always in a "proper" manner.

Since I am very clever indidual, I use semicolons to perfection

 

[Pessimism]

Great Scott man, is this some sort of ruse?

 

[Zephyrus]

I use them all the time when I write papers. The perfect solution to any tendency to begin sentences with but, yet, and and.

 

[Pessimism]

Ah, I usually use them to indicate a major division in a sentence where a more distinct separation is felt between clauses or items on a list than is indicated by a comma (as between the two clauses of a compound sentence).

[Valerie]

Semicolons are very useful; too bad they don't get used often.

The Rockies are going to make a woman out of Josh Beckett.

 

[Krilons Resa]

The Rockies are going to make a woman out of Josh Beckett.

Very doubtful.

Though winning 21/22 games is just fucking INSANE.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Also, Im pretty pissed that these damn games start so freaking late. There's no way I can stay up to watch

 

[Valerie]

Very doubtful.

It's my womanly instinct.

 

[skeptik]

I am awesome at using semicolons. I don't think I've ever written a paper since 7th grade where my thesis statement didn't include a semicolon.

 

[Krilons Resa]

It's my womanly instinct.

Well, Beckett's first at-bat-face-off was a good one.
