[scottybo]

They just found the plane. No survivors. do I tell my kids or not. ####.

Take your time. Obviously they'll find out soon enough, maybe you should be the one to tell them.Also, sorry to hear it.

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

Not sure who all I texted last night but nice talking to you.

 

[dharmapunk]

Ack. Rough news there SK.

:(

 

[krista4]

That last-minute substitution of my flex player from Pierre Garcon and his 36 points to Deion Branch and his 6.7 doesn't look like it was such a good move.

My opponent is Mr. krista, in a battle for household bragging rights.

If he wins, he'll also steal the #1 playoff seed from me.

(I know, no one cares about your fantasy team.)

 

[Tiger Fan]

sorry SK

UPDATE: Search crews find plane wreckage on land with no survivorsCLEVELAND — Search and rescue crews are returning to base this afternoon after the wreckage of a single-engine plane was found on shore with both men aboard deceased.The discovery ends a search that began Saturday evening and involved Coast Guard search assets from the local area, state police and local first responders, as well as a search plane from Cape Cod, Mass.Click here to read the original news release.Shortly before noon, a Coast Guard aircrew involved in the search effort received a signal from a 121.5 MHz emergency locator transmitter. When they investigated the transmitted signal, they found the plane wreckage about 100 yards from the shore and about three miles north of St. Ignace, Mich.The aircrew passed the location to Michigan State Police and vectored land-based search crews to the wreckage. Crews confirmed it was the missing plane and that both men aboard were dead.The cause of the accident is not known at this time.

I have all this stuff to do tonight and I have zero motivation. dammittohell

 

[Tremendous Upside]

SK: Man, that sucks. I would tell your kids, As stated earlier, they will likely hear it at some point, better it come from you.

 

[-fish-]

SK> sorry man. I know I speak for everyone that if there's anything we can do for you, someone here can make it happen.

 

[dharmapunk]

Wait a minute, Jason Garrett iced his own kicker?

[heckmanm]

[mr. furley]

IIRC You let your wife check your messages. Something about comparing female parts to the sarlaac pit.

 

[Bogart]

Sorry to hear about your news, Sofa. That sucks on so many labels.

Thoughts/prayers/good thoughts/karma sent your way. Take whatever you need.

 

[YSR]

Yes, Thorn.

So sorry man.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

So my second overall pick Forte gets hurt then my third overall pick referee Felice gets hurt. I hate football.

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

Funny pic from HS football game Friday night. That's my alma mater in the gold helmets. The defender wrapped up the QB from behind but QB stayed on his feet. Defender basically tried to suplex the kid.

Felice has been a stud too. 36 false starts/offsides, 7 pass intereferences, 2 personal fouls and a safety. Always start your studs. :(

 

[dharmapunk]

Yes, Thorn.

Great minds, my dear, great minds.

 

[bentley]

Just finished putting the lights on the Christmas tree and drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee.

 

[Thorn]

Sorry Sofa. Jesus.

What a kick in the nuts. Sorry to hear that.

 

[dharmapunk]

Madonna for the Superbowl halftime show?

Meh. Could be worse I suppose.

 

[Tecumseh]

Damn, Sofa. Very sorry, man.

 

[kevzilla]

It's 68 degrees in here. Should I kick the heater on or just drink heavily?

On reflection, that's really more of a rhetorical question.

 

[YSR]

Really sorry to hear, SK. Hope you are doing okay and that your kids take it well (and yes, you should be the one to tell them). GL.

 

[BRONG]

Tell me I didn't just see that Hyundai white rapper commercial.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

Tell me I didn't just see that Hyundai white rapper commercial.

Vanilla Ice is rolling over in his grave.

 

[bentley]

Does anyone make a drink holder that attaches to the side of a laptop? If not, that might be my million dollar idea.

 

[bentley]

Possibly related - I may have just had to clean some wine off the couch when the damn cat knocked the glass over that I had sitting there.

I have watched these about 15 times this weekend:

 

[Guster]

Sorry to hear Sofa :(

 

[Tiger Fan]

anyone else get an email about a class action suit against tcketmaster?

 

[krista4]

Wait a minute, Jason Garrett iced his own kicker?

I've been laughing about this for four hours and never gets less funny.

 

[Tecumseh]

I need a win, and a loss by our commish to make the playoffs this week. A few weeks ago, I made a trade that my opponent was furious about, and it led to a huge blowout between him and the commish. So now my opponent is tanking this week, in the hopes of screwing the commish out of the playoffs.

Also, due to the tanking, the commish has stated that he will not pay my opponent in full, should he win any money. My opponent says he will take the commish to small claims court.

Pretty sure this will be the last year for this league.

 

[madhatter]

anyone else get an email about a class action suit against tcketmaster?

yep, no idea what any of it meant.

Awww, he looks just like our Fuzzy.

Got this, too. It meant, as all class actions, that you don't get jack.

I've had Forte and Jackson go out the past few weeks.

I did get a check for $18 from some class action last week...so I got that going for me

 

[Bogart]

The other thing I have watched this weekend way too many times:

This guy has accomplished more than I ever will.

 

[bentley]

The $18 one was for anyone that made a credit card transaction in a foreign country between 1999 and 2008. I got that one, too. Spent it all on strippers and coke.
