    Official Oscars 2022 Nominations And Discussion Thread

    It’s obvious expulsion was coming so his handlers calculated that resigning would be better. After all I think the only big names they have kicked out for cause are Weinstein, Polanski and Cosby, no one wants to be a member of that group. As for accepting future punishment, he really does not...

    Official Oscars 2022 Nominations And Discussion Thread

    I think this is still true, you know what the value is for that Oscar? One dollar. Since 1951 every winner has to sign a contract that if they go to sell the Oscar the academy has the right of first refusal. At first the set price was ten dollars but it has been lowered to one dollar.

    Rock’s joke was not a crime in the state of California. In order to reach the level of a crime there Would have had to be a component of sexual harassment or discrimination.

    The more I think about it, they made a huge mistake not escorting Smith out of the theater after his actions. There is no excuse for what he did and by letting him stay they were condoning his violence. At the very least they need to never invite him again even if he is nominated.

    I remember that joke, it was very funny because there is some truth to it.

    Virgin Galactic's new SpaceshipTwo

    I was rather annoyed that they interrupted Meet the Press for live coverage of the flight. My first thought was, 13 years and this is all they could accomplish?

    I thought the segment was poorly done. First, Yesterday is a terrible song for a segment that is suppose to celebrate the life of those who have died. Look at the lyrics, it's all about the self pity of the narrator. Secondly, picking a short song like Yesterday constrains the production...

    Was that an eye roll from Spike? Well not really an eye roll but a look like he didn’t approve.

    Yes I’m still a Raider fan. I’ll probably go to a couple of games in Vegas next season. Edit: I forgot to ask, you still a fan?

    2019-2020 NFL Season

    Brady is done in NE, he wants to move on. He has been divesting himself of his interests in the NE area in advance of his move and soon will not have any real ties to the community. He really should retire, last night's poor performance was not an outlier but closer to the norm, but he'll land...

    Google found a damning iPhone hack

    You’re right, it is complete bullshit that Apple hasn’t said what sites these were on. In fact it’s complete bullshit that they have kept so quite on this entire subject.

    Are You Getting An Apple Card?

    Who cares about the card’s durability, shouldn’t you be using Apple Pay anyways? It’s not like this card has any prestige factor like an AMX Black card so whipping it won’t be impressing anyone.

    I didn't mention anything about the Cub's pitching, I simply pointed out that Schwarber is working out as lead off. His number's in June are fantastic but he won't keep those up.

    Apple spring 2019 event

    The streaming service is certainly not the way they wanted it to be. Originally they envisioned a service that ran on computers and iOS devices and for the home on AppleTV only but the AppleTV only route would be a failure in today’s market with almost every TV supporting apps these days.

    LEAVING NEVERLAND

    I stopped reading your post after this line because you clearly have no clue what you are talking about. It is a fact that an abused child is statistically more likely to become an abuser themselves. As for Jackson, he was a monster that abused children, the world is a better place without him.

    Florida prosecutors offered Kraft a typical plea deal for a case like his and he turned it down. What a dumbass, he is 77 circling the drain of life and he could have made this go away fast. Now if he goes to trail and is found guilty he could do 60 or more days in jail.

    We are just hours away from the first regular season game! Sure it is in Tokyo, Japan but it counts as an A's home game. I'm hoping the Cubs can catch fire this season and bring home another title. Go Cubs Go!

    He was caught up in a Human-Trafficking investigation. It doesn't appear that he was involved in the trafficking just that he used the place that was involved. Perhaps we need to build a wall around Bob.

    They finally voted someone in unanimously, thank goodness, it was embarrassing that no one until now was unanimous. Who the hell could have looked at their ballot and passed on players like Ruth and Mays and several others? Six players going in this year, a big class. I might have to look at...

    It wasn't a very good first series for the Cubs, going 2-2 against Miami is not acceptable. Let's hope things improve against the Reds.
