Sundays Without Football: Open Thread
It's Sunday afternoon out here in California, closer to Sunday evening for folks back east, and it's the first Sunday without football since September 4. It's the first weekend where football hasn't been entirely on our mind since sometime in July before end of lockout talk really caught fire.
How have you enjoyed or at least gotten through a football-free weekend? More times with loved ones? Moving on to college basketball, NBA, NHL or some other sport? I caught some of my UNLV Running Rebels yesterday and am enjoying "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" today. I still think it's an underrated classic!
So how are you dealing with no football?

The Walking Dead marathon today
followed by the first episode of the new season
This
Makes me happy. I’m also looking forward to the show after, “Comic Book Men”. I used to collect comics and I’m kind of a dork like that.
I'm in love with a man. A man called Harbaugh. Does that make me gay? Am I gay for Harbaugh? You betcha!

Awe yes this!!!
So in light of that I have been busy researching and aquiring all the parts I need for my LR .308 rifle build. This is a .308 Winchester caliber semi auto. Yeah you know, it looks like an AR15/M16 only bigger :)

A girl at work actually asked me this.
I told her I had no clue. I ended up sleeping late then turned on the SyFy channel. It’s been a rather boring day…

Um… not to bother you but can you explain briefly how you went about doing that?
Matt Cain is better than you, but apparently not cool enough for Showtime.

Trying to study for my Neuroanatomy final......
but i find myself aimlessly searching for niners info on the internet……….also, I re-watched the Saints game this morning just to remind myself how awesome Alex Smith played

Haha, I almost did the exact thing
Although instead of Neuroanatomy, it’s Environmental Economics, and instead of final it’s a midterm, but I too find myself looking for any sliver of 9er news and actually watched a bit of the 9er Saints game, until my fiance caught me lol, such is life. Back to studying…
Environmental Economics......
Seems way over my head, where you going to school at?
by Pablo full of Poseys on Feb 12, 2012 9:44 PM PST up reply actions
lol, an Neuroanatomy is way over mine
I go to Cal State Bakersfield, or CSUB
Working on my senior thesis.
How are you watching the divisional game? You got it on dvr or is there an online way to watch it, possibly free?
Also, can not WAIT for pitchers and catchers to start…
It's about the team, the team, and the TEAM!
I downloaded it
The day after it was over I searched for the torrent and downloaded it so now its on my computer whenever I want I also have out on my touch pad when I’m bored in class

Getting some leisurely reading done.

Dude!
You’re freaking awesome… But add Harry potter and twilight films to it!
by Leoniner on Feb 12, 2012 8:20 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
Please
Dont disrespect great movie franchises by even bringing up the word “twilight”. That is sacrilege to Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, and is a crime in 37 states.
Please don’t do that. LoL

Love that movie
Sunday morning fishing now that there is no football. I will consume 25% less bacon, drink 50% less beer and have 75% less fights with my wife who hates football. God I miss it already!

I usually do the same thing.
Except the NBA sucks this year. Only two teams really matter the Heat and OKC. Everybody else is too old to play 4 days a week, or just not that good. Ok maybe Chi and NY are interesting but I’m a celtics fan so everything sucks this year…
It's about the team, the team, and the TEAM!
Madden and making the transition to the NBA
Cant wait till next season. GO NINERS!
(side note)…I DVRed the last minute and a half of the 49ers divisional game against the saints. I have been watching it daily. Helps keep me optimistic for the upcoming season.

worked out this morning
then cleaned the apartment and then went to see Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
If you don't like Brandon Medders you're not a true fan.
Syracuse Basketball
Is really the only thing getting me through this right now. If they were bad I dont know what I would do with myself.
