WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  WannaBe: Tix for Cal/Stanford and ND/Stanford are officially sold out. (If you go to www.gostanford.com/tickets)

Standing Room Only (SRO) tickets are available $50 for Cal, $60 for Notre Dame.

But get this, on StubHub the ND/Stanford game already have SRO listed for $101 (with fees)!!

My section (218) for Cal game is now up to $97, $116 with fees. Same section for ND game? $190 with fees.

  WannaBe: Holy Gin/Vodka Martini, worst Bond Theme Song Ever. "SPECTRE". Someone must have stirred it and forgot to shake it. Ugh!!

Worserest than Madonna (Die Another Day), or Garbage (The World Is Not Enough).

Oh my freakin' sweet Austin Martin.

I've seen all the Bond movies, some of them from start to end, (OK, just only, like 26 of them) and this gotta be the worst theme song ever.

  chancho: <WannaBe> May this song ease the Bond of agony that you are feeling right now.

Enjoy!
