DVRing it, sooooooooooooooooooooo pumped to watch it.

Hope you went past 10pm on the DVR. The show, including previews went until 10:15pm.

I loved it. Buscemi isn't a gangster, exactly, he's the Treasurer of Atlantic City. But he's as crooked as they come. Can't wait to see it next week.

depends.

the biggest complaint i heard about the show is that it is too slow. it develops characters through each episode and there are a lot of characters. there have been several scenes that i have been like 'who the fug is this???'

but i do believe it is a great show. not too slow for me (i like characterization.)

I like the show, but its just not enough to fight off inebriation. See, by the time the kids are put to bed and I get to finish whatever I chose to skew my view of football, BoardwalkEmpire comes on and Im fading in & out. I really only get to see half the show and then when i attempt to watch the next week there's a lot of "What is happening? When did they do that?"..If the Panthers were playing better football Id probably like this show lots more... :sad:

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
