  1. AFL is terrible to watch on TV. Live it's passable but to claim all Australians love it is a joke. The only reason you southerners love it is because your brains are part frozen. Go Broncos! Didn't Freo score 20 points in a game last weekend? Consider them WRITTEN OFF
  2. I like the harmonica in Alice May by Andy Clockwise. Heart of Gold and After The Gold Rush by Neil Young. Ain't No Sunshine by Bill Withers.
  3. Yes, and like Australia can beat Mexico anyway? We mercy ruled their ass. Was pretty impressed with the Aussies. Our batting was good enough but our pitching lacks. Once we were eliminated I lost interest pretty quickly.
  4. I got a PS3 last night and it came with Killzone 2. I don't have much to compare it to yet, but it looks absolutely stunning. The amount of action going on with crossfire and dudes running everywhere really surprised me. The gameplay is a bit awkward at first but after an hour or so I got the hang of it and I really had a good time playing it. Looking forward to getting home from work and putting a couple of hours into it tonight. I love the cover system, where you can just peek over a little and let off a few rounds. The cut scenes look awesome as well. Really keen to try COD as well now.
  5. And now Pieterson's out of the rest of the ODI's. England are totally, royally fucked now. Are there any keepers in all of England that can score any runs?
  6. Tyrus is Posey's bitch. Suns and Mavs are amazing but I'm pretty excited by the T'wolves. Garnett is finally getting some help from Ricky Davis. Mike Davis is hitting some shots and Blount has played better than I would have expected (although I don't think that'll continue for the rest of the season). They're not there yet, but exciting all the same. The Nuggets will be alot of fun to watch after Carmello returns to see how they can cooperate with squeezing in another 20 shots somewhere. At some point the Nets have to wake up and start playing to what they're capable of but the Raptors aren't really that bad. Bosh is a marquee player and I like TJ Ford alot. Fred Jones is an exciting player although I think he's hurt at the moment. If they were playing in a stronger division obviously they'd struggle but I dunno, the Raptors are a fun team. What does everyone expect from the Heat after Shaq gets back?
  7. Jealous Guy Give Me Some Truth Mind Games Intuition Whatever Gets You Through The Night Cold Turkey Power To The People Happy Xmas (War Is Over) Give Peace A Chance (Just Like) Starting Over I'm Losing You Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy) Watching The Wheels Working Class Hero Pretty much everything he's released has a number of gems. Beautiful Boy is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
  8. I want to bear Mark Redman's children.
  9. Australia has some very good players in the minors now and there are alot of countries who went very well in the Olympics that you guys have ignored completely. Just because you guys don't know their names doesn't mean they'd be terrible. I think you're under-estimating baseball's popularity. While those teams may not be as strong as the ones posted before, I doubt there would be the 21-2 trouncings you guys are predicting. And to have two American teams would kill the credibility of the tournament. Maybe it'd make it more fun for the American's to watch, but it wouldn't be a true World Cup.
  10. Lyrics are 50% of the song. You can't have a great song without good lyrics, but you can have an average song without good lyrics.
  11. If you're using chips I suggest forming a pool. Get everyone to put $20 in and the person with the most chips at the end of the night gets the pool. That way people won't just fuck around and ruin the game. Me and my mates usually just use small change.
  12. Only 290 days until pitchers and catchers report...
  13. They broke up. There was a post on here about it when it happened.
  14. These guys need to spend less time doing their makeup and more time burning down churches.
  15. The Pirates continue to make me hate myself.
  16. It had all the right albums, just in the wrong order. 50% right is about 50% more than most TV "Top 100" lists usually get right. Few ones that probably didn't deserve to be there but I didn't think it was a terrible list. Just too all over the place.
  17. Day Tripper is one of the Beatles most covered songs and Back In The USSR gets alot of praise as well. I wouldn't call those underrated. I'd go with Yer Blues (what an awesome, awesome vocal), Don't Let Me Down (another awesome, awesome vocal), She's Leaving Home (almost as good as A Day In The Life imo) and I've Just Seen A Face (total mesmerising song, gets in your head and you can't get it out),.
  18. The title of this thread is "Members of a band who aren't as good as co-members" and you weren't expecting people to be bagging out someone's technical skills? Blink 182 are catchy but to make an argument that aside from Travis they are good musicians technically (which is what Dan was doing) is rediculous.
  19. Check out Younger Than Yesterday, The Notorious Byrd Brothers and Turn Turn Turn.
  20. This man knows. This was actually the second album I ever bought with my own money.
  21. GoGo, why the Wings hate? I know they're basically universally hated, I just don't see why? They aren't as good as the Beatles (or arguably any of their solo stuff) but I hardly think they're terrible.
  22. Ringo left the band for a while because of the constant fighting. The reason they stayed together so long were contracts and feelings they could fight through it. All of the Beatles left the group at different points in time only to come back. Ringo wasn't a fantastic dummer but he was decent enough, and to take him out of the Beatles would make the band completely different... the Beatles wouldn't have been the same band (and possibley, not as good) with a different drummer. Anyway, if you think Ringo was bad how bad must have Pete Best have been! Ringo was said to blow Pete out of the water!
