some of you may remember my questions on getting my chromecast up and running. Thanks for the help and advice - It is one of the best entertainment investments I have ever made.  Now on to netflix - now that I am streaming their movies instead of getting dvd s in the mail , I cant get current releases.  All they carry streaming is older stuff.  I have to go to sleazy web sites to find pirated current releases that netflix has on dvd but wont stream.  What is up with that ?

FWIW wifey and I have decided to do the following with Netflix:

We signed up with a gift card we were given, and it lasted us about 4 months... Now, we don't have Netflix...It expired... No harm/no foul though, as I download any new releases that come out (or get them from Redbox with free codes)...Instead of giving Netflix our CC info, we bought ourselves two more gift cards and will apply them to our account in a couple months and start watching again.

IMHO Netflix is only really good for binge watching completed shows, their original content, and some movies... If you're using streaming Netflix for new releases, I think you're doing it wrong in the first place.

That's the way it works, OP. Hulu streaming has day-after TV shows. Not sure how fast they get movies. Amazon streaming has a massive library that Netflix and Hulu do not but for a price ... and not day-after. Netflix streaming is what it is. Popcorn Time, though illegal, gets day-after TV and movies faster than any other streaming service.

I use it now and then. It's illegal, yes. Some people that use it a lot have received a letter from their cable company telling them to stop. I've yet to get that letter. It's nice because it's streaming. Once you exit the program, it deletes what you watched from your computer. Speed relies on how many other people are online with that movie or show active. It gets shows next day and movies really fast. And yes, you have to download the program to use it.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By PanthersGTI · Posted

      Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
