Jan-18-26 Chessgames - Sports   WannaBe: For what it's worth, both home teams (Saturday) covered the spread and the total went over. For the next 2 games: HOU 40.5 (Opened 41.5) NE -3.0 ML: -175/+145 LAR -3.5 (Opened -4.5) CHI 49.5 (Opened 51.5) ML: -198/+164      Jan-16-26 WannaBe chessforum   WannaBe: 12m in. Not impressed      Jan-16-26 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: Zed's dead. Zed's dead. (if one is to go down the 'Pulp Fiction' path) "That is A tasty burger!!"      Jan-14-26 Chessgames - Odd Lie    WannaBe: This one is from Henry Cho: "I'm changing the caller ID of my wife's phone number to Potential Spam" If you have not seen or heard of Henry, he is worth some of your time on YouTube.      Jan-14-26 Dickson    WannaBe: Apparently, it was a "far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known"      Jan-12-26 Fischer vs V Pupols, 1955    WannaBe: I was thinking baseball bat, tire iron, or brass knuckles.      Jan-11-26 Tata Steel Masters (2026)    WannaBe: So, the Tata Steel blitz were held in India, and players have 6 days to fly to NED for the next (or 2026 first) major event... What is the flight path? Here are some ideas: https://www.flightroutes.com/CCU-AMS      Jan-06-26 Atterdag chessforum    WannaBe: <OCF> Not to mention when TV stations switch red (dem) and blue (rep) to what we know today... On a similar note, in Asia, if the stock shows red, it mean up, green, means down. Go fig.      Jan-04-26 OhioChessFan chessforum   WannaBe: This is for you, with some deeper insight on drone productions, Russian, and now with the cut-off of oil from certain S. American country https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUB...      Jan-01-26 chessgames.com chessforum    WannaBe: That is weird, I posted the answer to <TGA> at 7PM Pacific/10 PM Eastern, and now it shows as I posted Jan 1 2026(???????)

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 510 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing> Nov-07-13    WannaBe: Chess have made it into Toy Hall of Fame. http://news.yahoo.com/chess-rubber-... Nov-09-13    WannaBe: How to make the World Championship Match more interesting. Games 1 and 2 must be 1. e4 Games 3 and 4 must be 1. d4 Games 5 and 6 must be 1. c4 Games 7 and 8 must be 1. f4 Game 9 and 10 must be 1. b4 Game 11 and 12 must be 1. a4 Games 13 and 14 must be 1. g4 Games 15 and 16 must be 1. h4 Of course, Bookie won't be putting out opening move wagers, but it will force the 2 competitors to think about the later games in tbhe match. Nov-12-13    WannaBe: I blame this on <Travis Bickle>. http://www.examiner.com/article/chi... Nov-12-13    Travis Bickle: <WannaBe> No comment... ; P Nov-12-13    Jim Bartle: Travis is innocent. It's Obama's fault. Nov-12-13    tpstar: Hole and Change Nov-13-13    JimNorCal: "If you want your sinkhole, you can keep your sinkhole. Period." Nov-15-13    WannaBe: What on earth, are the Bruins wearing as their home uniform????? Nov-15-13    WannaBe: That helmet for UCLA color and background are just atrocious. Nov-15-13    WannaBe: Alright, we are on pace to score 80 points!! Nov-16-13    WannaBe: Streaming the radio play-by-play (http://kzsulive.stanford.edu/) for the Stanford-USC game, apparently the broadcasting booth (at least for Stanford) is having problem, the announcers have said, because their booth phone line keeps on going in/out. (Phone line? Dial up modem?) And, they said, they can't get any cell phone reception. OK, I can understand that, when I am at AT&T Park, or O.com Park (Where SF Giants and Oakland A's play), I can't text/receive worth crap, either. Too many people twitting/facebook/instagram, what have you. 'SC took over the Coliseum a few years back, you'd think they'd put in some 'decent' network in there? Maybe even some free WiFi? Like Stanford have? At&T's name is all over the free WiFi (sign) at Stanford. Heck, even <I> can go in there and jerry-rig some network for them. Nov-17-13    Jim Bartle: "That helmet for UCLA color and background are just atrocious." UCLA in anything but the classic powder blue is a crime. Nov-17-13    Travis Bickle: Congrats on The RAIDERZZZ Victory! Nov-17-13    WannaBe: <Travis Bickle> Thanks, in my pool, I also picked them to win (no spread). Did you cause the weather delay in the Bal-Chi game, today?? =) Nov-18-13    Travis Bickle: No but I did contact the former Fighting Illini Mascot Chief to do a rain dance to produce "Bear weather"... ; P Nov-18-13    WannaBe: I guess, only in U.S. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/oddnews... Nov-23-13    WannaBe: Boy, UCLA gotta suck it up in the second half... Ugh. Nov-23-13    Jim Bartle: New to me: The Broons were penalized for having two players with the same number. Worked out, though. ASU messed up the punt and UCLA scored right away. Nov-23-13    WannaBe: Them gutty up li'l Boo'ens are showing signs of life! Nov-23-13    WannaBe: Ugh, missed FG. Ugh!! Nov-25-13    technical draw: <WannaBe> The field goal kicker is either: A: The most loved player B: The most hated player C: The youngest player to have a heart attack He's the equivalent of a relief pitcher in baseball except that it's the World Series 7th game every time he's called to kick. Nov-25-13    Jim Bartle: Also very important on any kick are the center and the holder. It's not so easy to get the ball down and set up to be kicked in a second and a half. The Rose Bowl came down to a shortish field goal one year, and I wasn't nervous for the kicker, I just prayed the holder--a friend of mine--didn't mess up. Nov-26-13    WannaBe: Gentlemen, true, true. Nov-26-13    technical draw: <Jim Bartle> I had something interesting to say on your forum except…you haven't opened your forum (yet). Nov-26-13    Jim Bartle: Not ready to open one and be humiliated when nobody posts...
