I lie and tell people I got it in an attempt to expand my horizons and grow as a person, but really I just got it so I can watch anime without having to read the subtitles lol.

Anyway has anyone ever tried this out? Does it work for you? Anybody on the huddle speak any other languages besides English, Ebonics, Redneck, or Dumbass?

I don't like how you are insinuating only white people speak Japanese.

On a serious note, there aren't a lot of people who speak Japanese other than, well, the Japanese.

From what I've seen of Rosetta Stone it mostly covers only the basics and is horribly overpriced. This was for Spanish mind you. Japanese will require more instruction. Honestly the best thing to do is to grab a real textbook and take a real class at a college.

I have 2 black friends that speak Japanese and Korean Fluently. They should be learning Chinese.

Hahah, you used urban dictionary? I already know two languages, I could use a third, but learning Japanese just for the anime, eh. Not my cup of tea. I rather learn one more language that I will use frequently or will help me get a better job. I was thinking about chinese but there's so many variations. I might opt for Russian.

Japanese is not a great idea for Rosetta stone. I took Japanese in high school and I've been to Japan, without knowing Kanji you really know nothing and I doubt Rosetta stone will be teaching you that. Take some classes, that's the only way to really do anything with a language like Japanese as opposed to something like French or Spanish that uses the same basic alphabet.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By cranky · Posted

      First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????

      Give Legette another season?

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By cranky · Posted

      Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
