Maybe cause after I shipped u the $20 I got hit the the transfer upswing and won 7 buyins. Getting oh so close to 6 tabling 1/2 NL. Hopefully sometime in early to mid October.

I say we maybe try the night game sun or monday night game again.

Sun Nite: Phi @ NYG

Definitely Drink in the South Side, Take the Incline to Mt Washington and eat up there at the Lamont or Tin Angel (reservations) and go to Station Square also on the south Side, there are a ton of good places to eat and drink there as well
Go dawntown to the strip and get a wholeys fish swich or primantis, again drink
Market square is fun as well which is also downtown, bunch of bars in a big square
Club Erotica is the best strip club and its located in Mckees Rocks, 10 mins from city, strip clubs downtown suck even though there are like 5 of them
Gateway clipper rides are a decent time as well and based out of station square
I will remember more things if ur into museums or stuff like that I can give you bunch
Obv tailgate with the BEST FANS IN THE COUNTRY
Where are your seats?


obv.
Don't know where the seats are. Someone else's job. Don't think they're anything remarkable.

Now you remind me ... a couple years ago, we went to Green Bay and saw Steelers/Green Bay from 6th row. Tailgating there, the town, the people, the stadium, etc. is awesome at Green Bay. You don't have to be a Packer fan to enjoy that. Awesome.

I think we should put in great threads from around this forum in here. That way I can be as lazy as possible and just look in here for threads that people found of interest and so I don't miss out on good things. I got to the BKice thread way too late, so I'll set the precedent by copying and pasting what Nicosen provided in the 98s thread, per PPsux thread in general.

That sounds very confusing but I'm stealing from Nicosen, who brought the link from PPsux.

"PrtyPSux posted a hand he played against Matusow in the "Making Bad Plays" thread. He's making a call like this for metagame reasons. I'm skeptical, following the stereotype of my online roots.

I don't think speedz and off-topic community are trolls, they all have a lot of posts and mostly come off as smart funny people. I don't think you were specifically calling speedz a troll, but were saying in general he (Bkice) shouldn't care what people on the forum say.

I don't know BKice at all, he's always been friendly to me and we've made pretty large $$ exchanges from site to site just through AIM. (Disclaimer: Don't ask me for exchanges I suck at poker now and have very little money online)

But, to me, I think he feels like he deserves more respect and people oogling over him. And unfortunately for him for whatever reason he doesn't get that here, even though his accomplishments are similar to people that do get that respect. I think the whole thing got overblown, but it was good to see Chucksty and PMJ posting, so thread was a success IMO.

I think there's a more appropriate thread in General for this BKice stuff.

We can start our super thread disrespecting a NL Strat poster. I nominate Cobalt, because he's so nice and wouldn't get upset and we'd have to make up things to keep the thread going.

BKice


Now this was an interesting topic. I'm pretty sure the guys who post in this thread didn't play a role in the thread it was mainly the hardcore forum vets. Not that I didn't have an opinion. When Bob locked the thread I instantly PMed him and told him it was ridiculous to close it. Bobs a good guy and meant well but the thread didn't deserve to die. I didn't even post in it one time.

I always thought BK was a good kid and player, very arrogant but good. I understand all points on the argument and tend to agree with both sides. The part that really makes me dislike BK now is how he says to go to pokerhaus to improve ur game and all this crap. Fck him has even visited the strat forums here except for a few post in tourney strat. He has not done anything to help the community or give advice imo. I hope he stays away and takes RAB and cronies with him.

Not to sound like a complete homer here, but to act like Galloway (3300 yards, 17 TDs over the previous two seasons, 250 and 2 through three games) isn't a big upgrade over Randle El is insane. Galloway over ARE isn't the main reason to do this deal, but to act like it isn't a reason is absurd!

Leinart will be a very good QB, I think. He's a second year guy. Cut him a little slack. smile.gif



Galloway would have had another 500 yards and 4-5 TD's last year if Garcia would have been the QB. I think he can have a really big year unless they start to double him.

The biggest problem this would give you is that your two best WRs would be Boldin & Fitzgerald. Please send the rest of your squad and his squad and that should make it easier to analyze.

Doing it without rosters is the kind of short-sighted thing Cobalt would do, that arrogant little fantasy-football donk!

not a big fan of the deal because you would theoretically be starting Boldin and Fitz. I'm not a McGahee fan but Lamont Jordan is having a really nice start. If you really want Boldin suck in his other big name receiver and give him Fitz.

Well, personally, I would shop around McNabb or Young for a RB to fill in until Jones-Drew (hopefully) turns it around.

You're certainly not in horrible shape if you can keep it together while your players get out of slumps. Fitzgerald and LT *will* turn it around. Jones-Drew...hopefully. Selling Tomlinson now is silly. If you're going to move LT, wait until after a good game when his value is back up. Remember, he had 0 TDs in the first two games last year.

This guy has Tom Brady, so he's probably not desperate for QB help, but if he's down on Javon Walker, make a move for him and try to get him cheap. I think Jordan is going to have a good year, but a lot of people don't. If he's not high on Jordan for the rest of the way, you might be able to get a fairly discounted Jordan/Walker package.
