he overlays are very unobtrusive and help out a ton. Without them, positions and etc would be needlessly difficult to judge.

I'm not talking about the statistical overlays, I'm talking about the giant and obnoxious yard overlays, the ones next to the players. It's not hard to count the yard-lines, and yet there's a gigantic 2ND 10 or whatever it is (couldnt stomach more than a few seconds of football) on the screen.

What ever happened to a "2nd down, [yards]" on the top of the screen?

I'm talking about the digitally overlayed "projected" logo/arrow they put to make it look like it's on the field.

You're just noticing this?

I don't watch football. It's a horribly boring sport in my eyes. And yet I can figure out how far 10 yards is in my own, whoa!

I get to go to a Stuporbowl party with free food so I'm content with the affair.

It's not always ten yards, jerk off. A lot of times it's 3, 4, 20, whatever. So the yellow line just puts where the team is trying to go. Instead of looking at the scoreboard, thinking, "there's three yards to go," and then measuring out three yards, all you have to do is look at the overlay.

Now shut up about it.

I'm not talking about the yellow line, jerk off. I'm talking about the gigantic blue arrow, the rectangular one, the thick one. Glad to see how hostile you are about it though, jerk off.

I know what you're talking about, but my point still stands--it's not always ten yards, so it just makes things easier.

I just don't see what's so hard about putting 2nd and 30 on the scoreboard. It's just unnecessary to me. I just like to keep it relatively simple with sports. For example, I'd rather watch the NBA on a local channel than on ABC, where there's all this panning and zooming.

I agree with you there, but now you're just getting into personal preference whereas before you were using it as some half-baked excuse to call all Americans stupid.

I don't even fuc[size=2]k[/size]ing watch sports on TV, so I don't know why I care about this.

Tyler, I think you care about things a little too much. Like seriously, relax and enjoy life and stop being so Canadian.

I really wasn't trying to call all Americans stupid, I was just saying that it's an American thing to do on sports telecasts, and usually as a result of the ones who tend to complain and use their own shortcomings as a reason to point out the seemingly obvious for everyone else.

Don't worry, I'm not one of those guys who's all AMERICANS ARE STUPID **** GEORGE BUSH LOL. It just came out wrong, and I'll presume what I said at the beginning of this post can be easily misconstrued as well.

I hold no ill-bearing towards America. I live in Toronto after all.

Ty I'd pass you a toke if we were a little closer

[QUOTE]What[/QUOTE]

You're too argumentative, you try to find fault too easy, and you make potshots at American any chance you get. It's like, you're really cool, but chillax.

Go pop a collar and put on some JJ.

[QUOTE]Ty I'd pass you a toke if we were a little closer[/QUOTE]

Most ****ing def.

I think it's funny I don't really ever get crap for saying things against America but Tyler does.


Because I mean if you don't live in America you can't find fault with it amirite?

if you're not a murderer you cant judge one then

I don't care if he criticizes America, it was just an incredibly dumb reason, dude.

[QUOTE=Nostalgia;15934454]How many black people play hockey? Like, I'd really like to know.[/QUOTE]

Um when do I ever, ever take potshots at America? Pretty sure that's Riva, but thanks.

[QUOTE]I don't care if he criticizes America, it was just an incredibly dumb reason, dude.[/QUOTE]
Didn't criticize America, criticized a portion of it.

[QUOTE=Kage;15934586]I don't care if he criticizes America, it was just an incredibly dumb reason, dude.[/QUOTE]

Haha the whole thing is dumb.

I was mostly addressing what I saw as everyone saying "omg ur always bashing america" and such because tbh I'm pretty sure I do it more than he does so I mean...credit where it's due :p

I never bash "America".

But because I'm Canadian I suppose it's the thing to assume. BRB, gotta ride my beaver to the arena, there's a Moose-cooking party going on.

Argh

has anyone here ever eaten moose meat?

Our education sucks compared to Canada's, we need further assistance to understand the game of football, our schools can't plow roads like Canada's can, we're lazy, etc.

I mean, they're probably all true, but who the **** really cares?

ur all fat and stupid lol george bush is only in it for oil 9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB.

(because I know that's apparently what I'm expected to post)

[QUOTE]has anyone here ever eaten moose meat?[/QUOTE]

It's good.

[QUOTE]Our education sucks compared to Canada's[/QUOTE]
It does. That's a government issue, who wouldn't criticise it?

[QUOTE]we need further assistance to understand the game of football[/QUOTE]
A comment on the people too stupid to follow along, who happen to be American. I'm fully aware that not all Americans require this.

[QUOTE]our schools can't plow roads like Canada's can[/QUOTE]
I never said this. I was surprised that it was such a taxing issue to plow the roads, that's all.

[QUOTE]we're lazy[/QUOTE]
Never said that.
