Yeah, you’re not far at all. I’m quite a bit past you and apparently *I* have a lot left. Maybe I should play more online, because I did enjoy it, but I think I rather just play something else at that point with better controls. Right now I’ve actually been playing through SC1 single-player.

Side note: this comment threading seems like a fucking disaster.

I’ve played more online in RDR than single player. Group of like 4-5 of us play.

I enjoy the slow pace and the environment, though I suppose I can see it getting boring. But I use it primarily for online and I do the single player slowly so hopefully I won’t get sick of it. I enjoy just roaming around doing the hunting missions.

I believe the last single player mission I did was where that gang tried to hang Bonnie

Nah, I’m not too quick nowadays. But yeah, it seems like EricWK would blow past both of us.

Definitely give SoA a shot first – it’s not like we’re getting any more episodes of Deadwood at this point.

I’d suggest a group viewing of The Sopranos with you, me, and EricWK, but I assume that you guys would tear through it a lot faster than me.

I guess I’ll watch Deadwood at some point after my Blu-rays of The Prisoner (original UK series) and S1 of Sons of Anarchy. Need to watch The Sopranos at some point, too.

Scattered responses:

- FIFA is the most corrupt, dysfunctional international organization around. They make the IOC look good. There are innumerable tales of FIFA idiocy that would make your head spin.

- I’m at the same spot in RDR and feeling somewhat similar to you. Guess I’ll forge ahead and see what it has to offer South of the border. Not feeling as motivated as I’d like, though.

- Yes, you should watch Deadwood.

You continue to impress me with your taste. I actually need to watch Deadwood — it’s near the top of my must-watch list.

How far are you in Red Dead? It was extremely cool at first, but I think that was mostly the setting covering up its flaws. I just reached Mexico and I really have no urge to keep playing. It’s pretty tedious. I had a bit of fun playing online once with a group of online buddies, but I should really just pawn it off while its resell value is still high.

Hey, the last two posts were about soccer and MMA!

And it went from “I was mean to you on the middle school bus” to “I think that might have been because I had a crush on you” to “Yeah, I had a crush on you.” I think there was a beer in between each of those steps.

I’m a huge Shield fan.

I haven’t watched the first season in a coon’s age, so I don’t remember the premiere beyond Terry getting got.

But the whole last season of The Shield is really the best climax of a TV show I’ve ever seen.

I’ve been playing Red Dead. It’s awesome and it makes me want to rewatch Deadwood.

This is the kind of post I can get behind. Very little baseball.

How’d your “I used to have a crush on you” come about? Its not sad it took til you were 24. It really isn’t. It’ll probably happen a lot more now.
