So, I think I'm ready to accept my Ravens' loss yesterday. That one really stung. Still, I guess that shakes the bandwagoners from the team. Still a great season and run. That really surprised me. I guess it was just a matter of time before the young guy finally had a bad game. I thought the Ravens...

The Safdie Bros. are definitely creating amazingly frenetic films -- which is kinda weird because their first films were ofte...

Damn, we should have the end of the year more often. Is this is pre-hibernation thing in the great white north? Great to see you guys and glad to have your thoughts on the year in music. Might be :D I usually do a top 25 or 30...but this year I could easily make a top 50. Fantastic year in music. Q...

Top 50 for me. 1. Mike Baggeta / Jim Keltner / Mike Watt - Wall of Flowers 2. Bon Iver - i,i 3. Josh Garrels - Chrysaline 4. Seba Kaapstad - Thina 5. Frank Hurricane - Life is Spiritual 6. Matt Andersen - Halfway Home By Morning 7. Yola - Walk 8. Andrew Bird - My Finest Work Yet 9. Bill Orcutt - Odd...

Liquid Swords! Nice. It's weird enough that I logged on here and saw somebody is listening to Murs but the fact that I was thinking about Murs today makes down right bizzare. I didn't even know Murs was still putting out music until like 6 mos. ago. I last listened to him like 2 years ago. Same wit...

So no one commented, weird.

I mean...some of this is simply shooting fish in a barrel.

If you're writing this piece from a geographical perspective, I suppose they hit all the biggies. It definitely lacks the deep dive aspect.

My Orioles are bringing back Tillman and signed Colby Rasmus to a minor league deal. Tillman is on a 1-year, and we'll see if he can return to form. It's really his best option in this FA signing desert of a hot stove. Rasmus, for some reason is a coveted guy by a bunch of O's front-office folks. He...

Did anyone watch the town hall?

Rubio definitely didn't come off well, but at least he showed up to face the people. It was noted a few times that Rick Scott didn't even consider attending.

I was screaming with each OT goal attempt. What a finish, what a story, what emotion! Redemption for sure.

As an Orioles fan, I'm used to this lukewarm off-season. It'll be interesting if the FAs really do stage a spring training exhibition as a motley group of players looking to get signed. Off-topic, this is nuts. Ex-MLB pitcher Esteban Loaiza arrested after 20 kilograms (40 lbs) of powder (cuh-kaaane)...

When the league-wide mandate of "chicken cacciatore Tuesdays" was lifted, the whole league went to pot.

[controversial opinion alert] if it can't be objectively measured (i.e., time, distance) get it out of the olympic medal category... make it an exhibition, but don't give medals... I know this means no figure skating, gymnastics, half-pipe, but let's be honest, you watch a run/routine, and then wai...

Inevitable. For many years my Ravens were poached over and over and it really stunk.

Weird not to see a thread yet. Anyone else watching? I'm a junkie when it comes to Winter Olympics. I love that in our modern age, I can literally watch practices, qualifiers and the medal events through the NBC app. I remember back in the day only getting to watch selective programming. When NBC go...

It was fantastic.

I think Sturgill wasn't announced because it was supposed to be a surprise. Both songs sounded impeccable, and didn't come off as going through the motions but genuine performances.

Had an excellent time last night. Great seeing all the 3DD folks, albeit briefly. Bummer that Ben's was closed--but it was Sunday, so I guess that factors in. Brought a DBT newbie to the show, he really loved it. Thought they were incredible, and was pretty excited to see a *rock show*. The missus ...

3. A lot of people left at the encore break. Up top cleared out a good deal, and down below did as well. I guess the Sunday thing was the issue. Same thing happened at the Ritz show in Raleigh which was on a Friday night so I wouldn't chalk it up solely to the Sunday night thing but no doubt, it pl...
