Guy claims super intelligence when this whole conversation started because he used a made up word. Also the reason you're pompous has nothing to do with intelligence. This all could have been avoided if you weren't a pompous prick in your original response. My phone auto corrected your word because it wasn't real but did you know what word I was asking for your definition of? You did so why not give the answer. There is a reason you are likely the most ignored regulat poster on this site other than the guy who got the ban. It's not because you're so intelligent like you think you are.  It's because you're a pompous asshole.

Actually, my original response was a joke about Vagitron's  smoothie's having a fishy taste...because, you know...it was a take off on the way a kunthole smells.  You either could not take that joke, or were unable to comprehend it. 

And then I made another joke about  smoothies being  a "limpy" meal....i.e. that there is not a lot of substance to a smoothie as a meal.  Again, yes, I sort of made up a word to describe a smoothie. And again...it was another joke.   And again you could not take that joke....or were unable to comprehend it.  

The only thing I can think that you can do perhaps for your personal betterment is to get a humor transplant operation, and then get some Richard Pryor, Rodney Dangerfield, George Carlin,  Robin Williams, Steve Martin etc. etc.  tapes or youtube link and review them to help you comprehend humor.   Otherwise you are going to continue to lead a sad, sorry little life.

Golf is a little different

Tom Brady was supposed to be done as well.   Is that better?

 Not exactly sure why but this bothers me. Oh well.

WSS

Perhaps because it seems like  too much control of various industries in too few hands?  

Teddy Roosevelt would have agreed with you.

Cool...did you take Neb Route 2 (Sandhills Scenic Byway)? That's what we're doing on the way to Colorado. Hitting up some Kansas state parks on the way home.

Yes, partially.  From Grand Island to Thedford, then took  83 up to Valentine/Niobrara Scenic River.   Then 20 over to Harrison with a diversion up to the Badlands. Then to Scott's Bluff and  26 to Ogallala, then we dropped down to Kansas on 36 and took that across Kansas and Missouri.

Yep perfect example of your unbelievably pompous personality and your inflated ego. I honestly have no clue what you see in yourself to have such an inflated ego but you do you.  Have a good day sir. 

Anyone above the level of an amoeba intellectually would seem pompous to you.  Oh look!  You highly resemble an amoeba from your viewpoint from your anal orifice.

well I have camping and hiking trips planned this summer so I'll be keeping myself busy..

 

Not a Camper..any more.     but I did just come back from a 10 day trip to Nebraska/S.Dakota/Kansas primarily.   And I have about a 2 week trip coming up to Chicago/Wisconsin and parts of Michigan in July.   May also do something short-ish in August, but not sure what.

End of their career money grab. Only the older guys move from EPL to MLS

They were done at the highest level so they moved down in class to cash in one last payday

Well, Phil Mickelson was supposed to be done as well. 

Well, I am sure there are any number of you out there so busy wankering yourselves that you don't pay attention.  So maybe someone who has paid attention can comment. 

Some commentary on the above:

I don't know why for some reason the "Super Hero" major players are not on here.  The article gives no clue as to why the likes  of the Superman/Batman/DC  comics.....or the Marvel/Avengers/X-Men  franchises are not included.  It is a fatal flaw in the rankings  in my opinion. After all, a lot of the above have been represented in some form of  TV/Movie/Book form. And certainly DC and Marvel  have all that going for them.   I don't know if comic book originated products are anathema to whomever put this together. Other "Rankings" do include DC and Marvel. 

And, if they are going to have Godzilla,  why not King Kong? 

What would you leave out,  and put in its place? 

Other candidates  I think have to be something that was more than just a single movie or a single TV show....though I don't think that applies above:  Babylon 5...which I would not have included was just a single TV show. 

I also think they missed on one which is considered a Top Sci-Fi franchise:  Dune

Per  ScreenRant.com the following are the Top 20 Sci-Fi franchises of all time:

20.   Predator

19. The Matrix

18. Mad Max

17. Babylon 5

16. Jurassic Park

15. The Terminator

14. Godzilla

13.  Firefly/Serenity

12. The X-Files

11. Alien(s)

10. Back to the Future

9. Flash Gordon

8. Stargate

7. Planet of the Apes

6. Battlestar Galactica

5. Dr. Who

4. The Twilight Zone

3. The Outer Limits

2. Star Wars

1. Star Trek

I watch my share of  sports talk on TV.  From Get Up in the morning to Around the Horn,, to Nick Wright....some Cowpile and PFR, and PTI.

Are the rest of you about as sick and tired as I am about hearing about Aaron Rodgers and the bullshit surrounding him?  Its about all that they ever talk about it seems. 

So, as far as I am concerned, the Packers can just ship him out and they can all just shut the fuck up about him. 

2021 NHL STANLEY CUP ODDS

Here are the current odds for NBA teams to win the title:

NBA 2020-21 FINALS ODDS

I have already expressed my preference for  the Toronto Maple Leafs.   Cleveland doesn't have an NHL team.  I could perhaps be convinced to become a fan of the Columbus team...but I am not really there yet.    At this point  I would really like a Canadian team to win it.  NO Canadian team has won the NHL since 1993 (Montreal).   And I like Toronto.   When travel opens up to Canada, and now with my wife retired (in less than 2 weeks)  I will probably make a weekend trip up there sometime.  I also like Vancouver, and will be making a visit there next year as the port from which I will be taking an Alaskan cruise.  But Vancouver is not in these playoffs. Neither is Ottawa which I really like.    I like Winnipeg as well. I have been there.  So they were my second choice. 

Of course, I like LeBron, but he is not 100%.  Anthony Davis is not really a winner in my view and cannot carry that team without LeBron being at his best.  So I don't think they will make it.   Ergo....I  go for the cities that have not won anything in like forever.     I too would like to see  Milwaukee win.  If not them, then Utah/Salt Lake,  which is a city that has never had a major professional sports championship. 

Next,    the NHL:

Tampa Bay Lightning   2020    Defending Champions

Pittsburgh Penguins   2017

Las Vegas Golden Knights   no title  year of origin   2017

Carolina Hurricane  2006

Boston Bruins  2011

Colorado Avalanche  2001

Minnesota Wild   no title   year of origin  2000

Winnipeg   #*#   1999  see below 1999?

Nashville Predators   no title  year of origin  1998

Montreal Canadiennes   1993

Florida Panthers  no titles  year of origin  1993

New York Islanders   1983

Winnipeg Jets   1979   #*#

Toronto Maple Leafs   1967

#*#  The Winnipeg Jets of the WHA  won the championship in 1979.  That franchise then move to Phoenix (Coyotes).  The Atlanta Thrashers moved to Winnipeg...and were renamed the Jets. No titles won since then.  I am not sure if the NHL has merged the old Jets into the new Jets franchise.  But Winnipeg has not won a hockey title since  1979

Here may be something to help you in your choice of who to root for in the NBA and NHL.    Here is the last year in which each team still left in the playoffs, as of today May 25th  last won a championship.....or their year of Origin if they have never won. 

 Start with NBA.  Team, then year in reverse order:

LA Lakers  2020.    Defending Champions

Miami Heat  2013

Dallas Mavericks  2011

Boston Celtics  2008

Memphis Grizzlies  no titles  year of Origin:  1995

Philadelphia 76ers   1983

Washington Wizards/Bullets   1978

Portland Trailblazers  1977

NY/NJ/Brooklyn Nets   1976   ABA

Utah/N.O  Jazz  no titles  year of Origin:   1974

New York Knicks  1973

Milwaukee Bucks  1971

LA/SD/Buff    Clippers   no title, year of origin:   1970

Phoenix  Suns:   no title  year of origin   1968

Denver Nuggets:  no title, year of origin   1967

Atlanta Hawks:   1958      as the St. Louis Hawks

Yeah. That's not the definition you gave. Actually none of the top 5 definitions there are even remotely similar to the one you gave. You are so educated and informed you used a non-existent word. I would describe you more as a pompous person with a very inflated ego.

I am so educated and informed to the point that the Oxford English Dictionary relies on me to create new words and new definitions of words. They have even put me in charge of the classification of human personalities. And for you, I have the perfect designation: 

Nothing says that what you have to be "listening to"  has to be  music.

Currently, I am listening to the newest Dune novel.   This is not that,  just a basic review of the Dune world:

I watch the English Premier League a lot. Favorite team is Liverpool

Not all, but most, of the best players in the world play there. It is way better soccer then the MLS. 
 

The difference between the talent in MLS and EPL is equivalent to D2 college football and the NFL   

 

Then why did  Rooney, and Beckham and all these other big name stars come over here to play?

All juice based or do you also offer almond milk based too? Immediately after every mountain bike ride, I make a protein shake with almond milk, 50g frozen banana, 100g frozen strawberries and one serving of Vega protein powder (pea protein based). 

After a 3hr grueling hammer fest, I can actually feel the nutrients and macros doing their thing with every drink..... the old Popeye cartoon where he becomes a bad ass instantly after eating his spinach always comes to my mind.

Best of luck with your business and if I were anywhere near there, I would be a customer!  

I have used Almond Milk to quell my acid reflux.  Works about as good as anything.

Yeah my phone auto-corrected. My apologies. For someone who threw a hiss fit anytime someone made a joke about his phone putting the same statement twice when using talk to text features you sure are fucking prick. You know why phone auto corrected it? It's not a real fucking word (adjective form of limp lol)

I assumed you meant it more in a limp-wristed way as much as you use homosexual insults so thank you for informing me of what it meant. Go fuck yourself for being a prick. 🙂

Sorry if being educated and informed is an affront to you.  Not sure what you are offended about unless you take to heart accusations of being limpy and lumpy.

A guy like you should appreciate the Urban Dictionary definition.

When your dime bitch surprises you with a quick blow Job and your wiener is so limp that she can twirl it around in her mouth like a jump rope. To maintain limpy status for as long as possible it’s helpful to think about the affects of the corona virus on your used to be thriving business. If you're lucky you can keep your limp wiener in her mouth for at least 30 seconds of pure bliss. When your limpy reaches 20% chubby the limpy is over and you go back about your day.

Let's call it depth?

Interesting - The Browns are the only team with TWO ROY candidates - Newsome and Owusu-Kamorah. I had no hunch at all that

either one would be available to the Browns in the first round.

NFL Analyst Says Browns Have 2 Defensive ROY Candidates

I think Tommy Togiai will eventually surprise us - he has plenty of time to learn and grow behind veterans.

Cleveland Browns: DT Tommy Togiai is another home run pick

 

 

Well, I think every rookie is probably a rookie of the year candidate.   I think Chase Young and  Justin Herbert won  offensive and defensive rookies of the year....but there were other candidates drafted down the line,  like  Claypool, and Justin Jefferson and Jonathan Taylor,  not all of whom were even first rounders.
