Hi,

 

Not a great watcher of the NFL. I know Brady is one of the best ever in his position, but he looks like a guy one would find in the more remote areas of Ireland. No Joe Montana.

He has been on a sucessful team. I would be more impressed with his acomploshmnets if the Patriots did not have a recird of cheating though

The Patriots had Deflategate and before that were busted for spying on the NY Jets.

 

A culture of cheating and denial when caught.

 

Go Falcons - who have a culture of subscribing pain killers to mask injuries. That was revealed in yesterday's sport's section here.

 

Oh well! I will root for the NFC 9 out of 10 times anyway.

I just wonder what they have been doing and have not been caught yet.

Forgive the mixed intentions behind this post.......

 

Tom Brady is a genius. To have the composure under intense 'sacking' pressure to find, with instant calculations the correct trajectory, weight and speed of pass .....to find the coded call's 'free man', or in many cases giving a marked teammate an advantage of inches to catch a ball thrown 30 yards.

 

It's a rehearsed skill.......thousands of hours spent in it's fluid perfection and the team's movement...... so that on the day, under the dread weight of competition the QB throws the win ..not the game away. We know both happen........Because this is real.

 

 

Ms Streep writes this all off with a shrug as being in some way lesser, lower......'thicker' low-brow entertainment when compared with the talents of herself and her peers in Hollywood.

 

OK she can assume other personalities........She can shout at a camera.......She can keep tears on standby........and hear a comforting, 'Cut' when she fluffs her lines..........Because Hollywood is fake. We have to go along with the lie and suspend our disbelief to enjoy..(and we do) it's output.

 

She's deserves her applause.........So do top sportsmen like Tom Brady.

It isn't just actors who can keep tears on standby - just look at Chuck Schumer.

 

I agree with you. I love to watch the best who perform in anything. There are also no editors in sports except for the sports pages.

 

Hollywood is the most self congratulatory group in existence.

 

I was watching the FX show Taboo and I did not realize that actresses in early 19th century doubled as prostitutes. Streep should be grateful that she lives in an era of mega salaries. I doubt she would have made much with that second career option.

You remind me that in most countries the word for actress used to double for, or was synonymous with the word prostitute.......... Never had a problem with that myself.......

 

Works both ways when I told my mate about the girl I call, 'The Orgasmotron' and her multiple, multiple, multiple orgasms he said.....Did she get a BAFTA?'

Now now atlas, we all know multiple orgasms is a dastardly fabriacation by females used to manipulate males, like PMS is.

"Only a third of women experience orgasm regularly during intercourse, while another third need extra stimulation to reach orgasm with intercourse. It is normal to have orgasms by means other than intercourse, like foreplay, specifically oral sex. Meanwhile, studies show women need a mere one or two minutes, on average, to reach their second climax, also known as a multiple orgasm, according to Catherine Blacklege, author of The Story of V: A Natural History of Female Sexuality. The most female orgasms observed was an impressive 134 in just 60 minutes."

 

Now back to Tom Brady........

Hi,

 

I was walking along near the Old Vic and in a nearby restaurant I spotted a load of actors having a meal. I recognized most of them and they were the sleaziest group I've ever seen anywhere. Many of them have Knighthoods from the Jelly Bean !

NFL is a business, not a sport.

 

It's a business that revolves around a sport......So it's still a sport.

 

Same for most sports these days....... I agree strongly though that money adds somethings and subtracts others.

 

Any way.....

 

What time is it on here in Thailand......? Around 7 am right?

Then there is no such thing as sport as even our colleges and University use sports to generate revenue. The Olympics are no longer amateur. I guess Little League baseball is still a sport by your definition.

MLC mentioned 'Taboo'....

Just a quick plug..... 5 episodes in I'm beginning to think it's one of the best things I've seen....

Tom Hardy.... Jonathan the great Sparrrow Price Ridley Scott and the writers behind Peaky Blinders....

Plus some great history involving The Crown...The East India Company.... and the ruthless Americans... worth a look

Peaky Blinders is an excellent show as well.

 

Who isn't ruthless in these writer's shows?
