umm,

1 Tiger Woods wins a major
2 Pats win another and I hemorrhage
3 Womens US hockey team wins gold
4 Astros repeat
5 Vegas Knights make a splash in the playoffs ala SJ Sharks way back when

They're due...really hope this happens; the 2014 loss was an absolute heartbreaker in a matchup full of them.

Day 8
A fall/winter song

Using the Bangles version of this song because the Simon & Garfunkel video doesn't have Susanna Hoffs and Jami Gertz in it.  :popcorn:


The Bangles - Hazy Shade of Winter

Dude! you took mine lol
not a dig if you like them, because I respect the talent and their knowledge and love of music, but this is about the only song of theirs I can stomach.
Incidentally, I've never heard of a band that says they were so heavily influenced by the. Beatles, but yet dont carry one-ota of similarity in the music, but this just me.

Ill go with Winter by the Stones



You talking about the Bangles or the Stones? Pretty sure it's the Stones but just want to be sure lol

Heh, Sister Christian...I remember 10-year old me having a crush on the girl in that video. Also led me to this article, which you might find interesting.

Big Ten referees blowing or missing calls? I'm shocked by this development. SHOCKED.  ::)
If Big Ten officials are the best they could get for this game, college football is in trouble. Been putting up with this shit all season long.

Day 6
An instrumental song

Kind of doubles as a movie one too since this is where I first heard it, and I've always loved this scene...even though now I'm judging the dancing a little bit in it haha (more Argentine Tango than traditional). Any way, I digress.

Full disclosure: the main reason I'm watching this game is to see Kendrick Lamar and the closer look at Black Panther during halftime.  :popcorn:

What I've seen so far though...Georgia's playing some decent ball and they've been helped by some really stupid mistakes.

Day 5
A song you like from a movie

I have a feeling I could branch this off into its own thread and it would probably carry on for months...and I probably will when this is all done.  8) But for today...just one.
I freely admit to absolutely loving this movie (the sequels, not so much), and this is the one that sticks out the most for me. That, and Anna Kendrick is dreamy with A++ twitter game.
