Eh, besides the Changnesia thing I think he's been an entertaining character.

Update:inb4 Daniel snipes it in the last hour
13 days left on the auction for flatearthsociety.org and I still have the only bid. I expect a violent finish to the death where I end up losing hundreds of dollars.
I'm not a PC gamer because I'm not a computer expert. It's a simple as that. If assembling, modifying, and customizing computers came as easily to me as it apparently does to all the enthusiasts on the Internet, then I'd probably become one too. You can say it's "easy" or "obvious" all you want, but it's not to me. And I'm not alone. Like it or not, the vast majority of people don't understand computers well enough to become a competent PC gamer. It's not because we're stupid or lazy, or because we're all strictly "casual" gamers, it's because we have different interests, different strengths and weaknesses, etc. People are like that. Consoles are popular because they don't require that level of investment and technical expertise. And alas, the PC gaming community will most likely never understand this, and will therefore never understand why the rest of the gaming community sees them as arrogant pricks.Have you considered being less lazy and stupid? It'll probably help you understand computers better.
The QB gets too much credit in a win and too much blame in a loss. Not saying I agree that is okay, but that is reality, especially with the transition to a pass-heavy league.Yes, and it's silly. That's why I rarely watch ESPN or read the majority of websites about football. People prefer superficial analysis to actual analysis.
I would argue the quarterback is the most influential player on the field, almost always.Well, yeah, the QB is the most important player on the team. Excluding the coach, GM, and owner, he may be the most important person in the entire organization.
A bad QB = a bad team, and a bad (minus QB) team and a great QB can = an okay teamEh, here is where you start to make the leap from "most important" to "only thing of importance". The 2000 Ravens won a Superbowl with Trent Dilfer at QB. Meanwhile, guys like Philip Rivers and Dan Marino, both very very good QB's, have never won a Superbowl.
Some FE theorists think gravity exists, others think it doesn't.Universal Acceleration exists. Gravitation probably exists. I don't know if the Earth exhibits gravitation, but the other planets appear to.
If you think it does, explain how it works on the FE model, and whether or not it is exists along with universal acceleration.
If you think it doesn't, then explain why.
Do you have any evidence that it will snow? Also, Joe is 4-0 in Superbowls. Something Tom will never, ever be able to claim. He also won't win a 4th so it doesn't matter.Making it to six Superbowls and winning 4 would be more impressive than making it to four Superbowls and winning four. Same wins, two more appearances.
That is fairly accurate. It isn't fair that I always win.So, to clarify, you throw out shitty bets and hope morons (No offense Sean) take them.
Like in the Superbowl. Where it will be snowing. And Tom Brady will get that fourth ring. And be the GOAT. Fuck Joe Montana.Go Seahawks. We better win it this season while all of our beasts are still on rookie contracts.Hopefully they keep home field, otherwise, they'll choke on the road.
So you don't offer fair bets? Got it.Out of curiosity, his bet seemed to be based off exactly what you said, what is unfair about it?The expected value of the gamble was below 0. EV(g)<0
Betting against me always has that value. Ask Sean.

So Franklin claims the Patriots will win the Superbowl, however he isn't confident enough that they will even make it to bet $25.Yes, because you didn't offer a fair bet and I'm not a moron.
Well obviously. It's not a fair bet. However, I think that if the Patriots can get past the Denver Mannings, they can easily win the whole thing. Brady and Bellicheck are good enough to give any team a good game, and Brady had shown this year he can still turn it on in the second half and rip defense apart.Junker I'll take that, but since you said not to pay you and save my money last time, if you win I'll pay 100. Serious bets serious this time
Sounds good. If Franklin wants in on the action, I am cutting it to $25 per bet. Franklin is a pussy, though, so he won't.
More like Official American Sports Thread amiriteThe World Cup group announcement is coming fairly soon, right? Feel free to discuss it when it happens. Otherwise, there's no real great international sports events going on right now. And the only worthwhile sports America doesn't dominate at are soccer and rugby, and I don't follow either of those.
Sorry brah. The only team that can beat Brady this year is the Lions(dat interior pass rush), but they're going to lose at the Clink because the Seahawks home field advantage is cheating.The Patriots will beat the Seahawks in a snowy Superbowl, for those curious. Tom Brady will finally get his fourth ring and be the undisputed GOAT.
lolno
