Heyward is easily #1. I'd like to see Dupree use his athleticism to become a consistent threat, but I don't think he will. Watt is a logical choice, and I wouldn't be surprised if he became dominant in his second year.

Williams had a ton of sacks last year, and I think he can still fill that role. My choice would be Tuitt. He was set to have a breakout year, and got hurt on the 3rd snap of the season. He never fully recovered, and though he played well, he wasn't dominant. I think, with a healthy pre season, you will see one of the most disruptive Steeelrs, in years to play D line. I feel he will be a difference maker this season.
 
Sorry, had to put the daughter to bed. Also, I'm a bit of a movie buff. Love sci-fi, fantasy, animation the most. But you can't beat a good drama as well. Just saw Infinity War with the wife and loved it! We're talking about going to Deadpool 2.

I don't want to hit on spoilers, but If you like comic book/star wars/star trek/aliens, I'm your guy to rap with. To this day, nothing is scarier to me than the life cycle and design of aliens, and how they adapt to take on the characteristics of their hosts.

Xenomorphs (Alien) from Giger’s were the penultimate design. Alien 3/4 were wasted concepts. I thought Ridley’s Scott’s latest take on their origin was pretty unique and interesting. However the timeline is messed up from the original movie’s derelict space jockey engineer. Curious to see Scott’s trilogy final though.

Cope, my question is thus:

Are you drinking the soju as a shot, or did you pour the entire bottle into a big plastic bowl, mixed with kool-aid while using a straw?
 
Can you make it stop raining in Florida for about a month? I'm over this crap. Driving in it sucks and I can't enjoy JTB super speedway on my commute. If you're drunk enough this power will appear to you. So drink up!
 
ahhhh staying power
 
I would continue this by saying ask drunk Blitz..... as I am into 1/2 a bottle of Makers tonight it just kinda happened ... but 99.9 %of the questions would be uhhh I don't really know.

3 was actually amazing, if you are lucky enough to see the entire directors cut. The US version was 45min less and was edited into a dung pile. David Fincher knew exactly what he was doing and executed it perfectly. A very dark movie in the series for sure. Highly recommend catching the directors cut on 3.

4 I found to be the biggest mind-**** of the series. Ridley coming back with mixed DNA, so you're not sure which way she'd go. Walking into the room with the failed clone trials to extract the queen. Queen has a live birth to the most human of aliens, who I found to be terrifying because it had emotions. No xenomorph ever had emotions before. Final scene was terrifying and sad. Definitely a switch from the shoot em up of 2, and the suspense of Alien.

I'm with you on the prequels, I like the concept and they are shot beautifully, just the plot doesn't work for me. The AVPs were a little off concept as well.

I'm still working on the Mid-Atlantic. When I get it to stop up here, I'll work on Florida for ya!

I can always use the backup. I passed out at 9:45 watching the Caps/Bolts game.

Haven’t seen the Directors cut on A3 Cope, will need to check that out. I did think the acting was superb in A3. Dutton was great.

The only thing on the prequel that bothers me is the timeline. There is a 50-70 year gap from the prequels to Alien. However, Dallas comment that the space jockey and the ship had been there “for a very long time” doesn’t mesh. Especially with the hyper sleep culture human space crews endured.

Still, Alien probably one of the greatest Sci-Fi horror ever. Over 30 years later, it still can mess with you.

Fox’s AVPs movies were lackluster, but their Dark Horse Graphic Novels of their AVP comics were very interesting. They should have used those books as a basis to their scripts.

Hey guys, due to the monsoon on the eastern seaboard, my softball game was rained out tonight. As a result, I cracked a bottle of SoJu and I'm ready to start my night.

I'm up for talking about anything. The draft, free agency, rookie camp, hockey, Yanni vs Laurel whatever you like. So grab a drink and join along in the fun.

Soju made me lose track of 3 consecutive days in when I was at Camp Humphrey's...

I hope you know what you're doing when you drink that propane!!!

I like this scenario B&G, it's the first time we had a major work sold before it was finished, or set to be finished, before the film/movie adaptation was completed. I love the show. It's my favorite show on TV. The casting, acting, set design, costumes, scenery, cinematography are all superb! Best story ever made for TV IMHO. This may be the first instance where people say, I liked the show better than the books. Because they were exposed to the show before the books were done.

I personally think he's done with the next book, but is writing it in tandem with the last book. He's a big guy, so it will be a race to the finish to see if he actually completes his work. I'm betting we'll have the next book within the next 2 years.
 
Drinking a lot makes it so I never wake up with a headache...

I also only drink water all day, then switch to a beer or 2 at dinner time.

I do really well on Saki and SoJu. It makes me the life of the party at the Korean restaraunts I hang out at!

I have to disagree. While the TV show is superbly done and cast so well. The books have infinitely more detail and more interesting characters which have been cut out of the TV show.

I like the show to see Tyrion come to life, and aria doing her thing in the house of black and white.. but ,,, aside from seeing it come to life ,, its very short on the detail of the relationships etc.

What I'm saying is , I have to avoid all the spoilers and its not easy.. and it pisses me off. I WANT to read the books and see it through. I don't want the ending spoiling the books

I swear if I ever meet him I'm gonna pop him in the face.
