CSR OT Open Thread, Vol. 6
by BW Smith on Jan 25, 2012 2:41 PM EST
Email
PrintIt's a new week, which means it's time to start up another OT Open Thread to give us a place to have our non-Panthers discussions, especially since there's not that much Panthers news to discuss now that our season is over, and we can really only handle so much draft talk before we start going insane.
As usual, here's a refresher course of the rules:
This is the place where you can talk about almost anything you want, and we prefer you start any off-topic conversations here to help keep the front page articles focused on the Panthers (after all, this is a Panthers site).
Please keep in mind that while this is an "open thread", the rules of CSR still apply. Play nice with each other, don't bring up politics and/or religion, and don't post NSFW images or use words that you wouldn't say in front of your mother. (Ok...we'll be lenient on the language...but let's try to keep the F-bombs to a minimum.)
Feel free to use this space as your "community cafe" so to speak, where you can discuss movies, music, tv shows, food, or anything else you want to discuss, so long as it adheres to the rules.
Also, please be sure to rec this thread so it stays near the top of the fanpost section to ensure everyone who wants to join in can easily locate it, and be sure to "unrec" the previous OT thread so it will disappear from the sidebar since it will no longer be relevant once this thread gets started.
Okay Panthers fans, this is now an off-topic open thread!

Dolphins are reportedly looking for a "franchise" QB
They said they would be interested in Peyton Manning
by rscott94 on Jan 25, 2012 3:09 PM EST via mobile reply actions
So the Dolphins idea of a franchise QB is someone who has about 5 years left?
No wonder those idiots haven’t had a decent signal caller since Marino.

All I’ve ever cared about was video games and they made me a millionaire. So maybe I don’t know what the Civil War was, or who invented the helicopter even though I own one, but I did beat The Legend of Zelda before I could walk. I’m thinking about getting metal legs. It’s a risky operation, but it’ll be worth it.

I wanted to give Cundiff a hug after that. Poor kickers. Even when they kick game-winning FGs, the QBs still gets most, if not all the credit (see Prater, Matt), and if they miss, they’re the villains. (Note, I don’t have too much sympathy for Mare, though.)

And yes, the thought that I typed the wrong name crossed my mind a few days later while exercising at 4:00 AM. I had to come fix it. :)

I couldn’t wake up at 4:00 to do anything, especially exercise.
Yeah...
I can’t even get myself to exercise at 4:00 PM, much less 4:00 AM.

Well, there's that too.
But if I haven’t gone to bed by 4 AM, it’s because someone is near-death.
I stay up late, but I don’t stay up that late (at least not anymore).

So... I SuperCAM'd a class of 5th graders today
I went into the classroom to fix the computer, and after I got everything working, the teacher says “Kids, what do we say to this nice man for fixing our computer?” and the kids say “Thank you!”
So I’m walking out and one kid gets up and says “Can I get a high five?” So I obliged. Then another kid wants one, and here is where I messed up, I said “sure thing, i can never turn down a high five” so of course… now I have to high five the whole class.
So after I hand out a round of high fives and fist bumps, I get to the doorway. Then on a whim, decide to pause…
… turn around …
and say… “SuperCAM OUT!” then…
and walk out to laughter and applause.

I'm doing a Mock Draft on t'Huddle.
They’ve clearly timed it wrong – FA started on Sat and ends in March. Most of the FAs have gone though and the draft isn’t until after the Combine. Lots of time to twiddle thumbs….
Obviously you’re all clamoring to know which team I was and who I picked up, right?………..guys?

Let me guess, the Cardinals, and you traded your entire draft for Trent Richardson.

do you mean better now than it was, or better than Raleigh
because it is definitely not better than Raleigh. Durham has gotten a little better but it is still pretty bad, especially east Durham.

No. I'm talking about in general.
And I’m not talking about East Durham. I’m talking about Duke, Southpoint, Old West Durham, North Durham, etc…
Raleigh is ridiculously sprawled out, and traffic is awful.
If we’re talking about crime, you would probably be surprised to find out that they are equally crime-ridden.
Education? Wake County Schools are among the 5 worst in the state.

the Raleight and Durham schools really drag the others down
Apex and Cary school are some of the top in the country. As far as crime Durham is still higher, and Raleigh is also bigger. Proportionately Durham is worse. Around Duke and Southpoint arent bad, but other arts are terrible.
