    ***Official Political Discussion Thread***

    She didn't follow through on anything she campaigned on. Also, she promised to donate her paycheck...and then didn't (weird!). She was the first city council member to go through a recall election in nearly 50 years because her district hated her. She barely survived the recall, and then didn't...

    They could have just hired this guy to do it.

    ***Official Political Discussion Thread***

    Sawant SUCKS. She is not winning anything. She's one of the most hated Seattle City Council members of my lifetime. She didn't deliver on anything she promised. Don't fall for her crap. Her nickname was Idiot Sawant for a reason.

    That's how they justify their viewership. It's not households, it's public venues that are making up a huge chunk of their audience at this point. They're still losing a million subscribers a year due to cord cutting, but as long as bars and restaurants have TVs, they'll have an audience.

    The Official NBA Thread: LeBron James signs with the Philadelphia 76ers

    Portnoy being proud of this is everything you need to know about him. At the end, he actually looked really defeated. Just an absolute loser.

    Burgundy (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir) produces the most expensive wines in the world. I had Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC) in my portfolio when I sold wine for a distributor. The highest wholesale price on a DRC we had was about $4000. Restaurant markup is about 3x, so at my high end...

    The wino in me got really excited when he swiped a bottle of 2013 Domaine d'Auvenay Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru. That bottle (and vintage) ranges from $20K-$33K, depending on the auction.

    This was supposed to air sometime between Season 3 and, but apparently it is...not very good. So, they wanted to get Season 4 out to lead right into it. I'm just not buying that character (or the actress) as a lead. She's fine as a sidekick, but this spin-off has no appeal to me. Usually...

    All Things Sports Media Thread!!

    ESPN made the decision many years ago to make Sportscenter more of a visual presentation rather than something you sit on your couch at home and consume. If you're at a bar on a Friday night and there are TVs, it's almost a guarantee they're tuned to Sportscenter. So, while you haven't watched...

    The Official NBA Thread: LeBron James signs with the Philadelphia 76ers

    Catching up on some of this LeBron stuff. What the actual hell is Charles Barkley on? He got drafted to a Sixers team with Moses and Dr. J, one year removed from a title. That's fine. He was drafted. He demanded a trade in 1992, and got sent to a 55-win Suns team that had prime Kevin Johnson...

    I just didn't feel like typing out the whole thing regarding the cyclops lol. But, yes, it shows that even after visiting the lotus eaters (not depicted in the movie), he was still a cunning warrior. Yet, his hubris got the best of him immediately. I understand they kind of covered the lotus...

    The Odyssey is one of those movies that if you don't know the original story, it's probably pretty great. However, knowing the original story and how many of the encounters played out (not to mention the important stuff they just left out entirely), it left me pretty underwhelmed at times. The...

    Apparently, the theater I'm seeing The Odyssey at tomorrow (70mm at Cinerama in Seattle) is only showing the movie. No trailers, no ads, just the movie. That's kinda cool. Normally, they'll show one or two trailers for upcoming movies, plus trailers for classics they show at the theater as part...
