[JewishHobbit]

HOO! HOO! I'm involved with three of the awards (well, I'm not really awarded for biggest upset, but eh, I'll take it because I dealt it).

And I like that funniest strategy myself, I still giggle thinking about it

JH - Who made your Avvy?its sweet as

 

[JewishHobbit]

Joseph_Freefall made both this one and the Sentry one I had. He's great. I'm actually talking to him about possibly making a "Contest of Marvels Champion" avatar for the one who wins this thing. He said that he's interested, but that he'll have to wait and see how much time he has available at the time. So there may be an extra prize to the winner.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Hey, I'm excited. One of my best friends is moving in right next door to me I started helping him move yesterday, but now he's there and his wife will be helping us babysit for now on (so I don't have to drive to AnnoyingSilence's house every morning). It's cool having friend's so close.

(Note: My friend is Witchking, for the 30 seconds he was on the hype. I think only the DTL guys would remember him, and that's only because of the trouble he caused )

 

[Nightwing]

Yeah i heard about that......

Hey JH, Joseph_Freefall made my Nightwing one i just have four names in my sig for avvys and couldnt remember who made which ones.ive asked JF if he can make me a Juggernaut one in the cartoon style that yours is....

you should also ask him to make one for the loser - an extra booby prize......i should get that

 

[JewishHobbit]

My Shocker isn't actually the cartoon version, it's drawn by Mark Bagley from Amazing Spiderman 364 (the comic that made Shocker one of my favorate villains)

 

[Nightwing]

oh ok.its really good and i like how he animates them. Hes said hes gonna make me a Juggernaut and ive asked that it looks like this if he can make it.but ive said if he cant then just to make one how he wants..

A view of Juggernauts foot from the side slamming down....the screen shakes.
A view of his arm swinging beside his body from the side
A view of Juggernaut from the front charging at the screen and smashing it when he hits it.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Sounds cool, but I want it to be officially known that I was the first to think of the exploding Avatar idea

 

[Joseph_Freefall]

Yes, you were, JH.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Haha, from the avatar maker himself

 

[Phaedrus45]

Boy, what a beautiful day! Even if all my characters were taken down in Round 3, I'd still be happy....and, why, you might ask?

Simply because my SEATTLE SEAHAWKS are SUPERBOWL BOUND for the first time, EVAH!!! I've been watching this team since 1982...rooting every year, saying, "This just might be the year..." I've lived through the Jim Zorn, Dave Krieg, Kelly Stouffer, Dan Mcguire, Stan Gellbaugh, John Friez, Rick Mirer, Warren Moon, John Kitna eras....I'm sure I'm missing someone in there...to finally get to see my team get to the pinacle of football success. At age 38, I can finally say I was right...this IS the year the Seahawks are going to the Superbowl.

 

[POWdER-man]

Huh, good on you mate.

I have been through that more than anyone else here. I am an Eagles fan since the days of Reggie White and Randall Cunningham and have seen my team year after year do well and make it to the playoffs only to be beaten in the conference (or semi conf) finals. That was until last year, and of course we know what happened last year...

Although I like the Steelers better, I hope (for you) that the Seahawks win. From one loyal fan to another...

 

[Johnny Blaze]

I gotta say...my favorite Eagles game had to be the 2002 NFC Championship game. The Bucs Vs the Eagles where the Bucs shut the Vet down forever.

Yeah, congrats.
Being a Buc fan since I was a wee lad, I've got a lot of respect for Holmgren. Even though I hated him when he was with the Packers.
Still, I respect him as a coach, so I'm pulling for him to get the Seahawks their first ever Superbowl title.

 

[WOLVERINE25TH]

My favorite moment was when th' Yanks an' Red Sox got stuck in extra innings tradin' blow fer blow with niether advancin'. Excitin' game right there.

Yeah, I know...but football sucks.

 

[Sparta*]

I agree.....Hockey is where it's at, straight up

 

[JewishHobbit]

Well I think all sports suck,... though football is tolerable. But the Bangals are out, so I don't care anymore.

 

[Phaedrus45]

Voting May Begin!

So, you think the Flames are going to win it this year, or will they come so close and fall short once again?

Hey, in game 6 the flames scored a goal that would have won them the stanley cup but it wasn't counted, even thought it went in! I was so mad. Then it was dragged to an unnecessary game 7 where they lost. Damn it all. Just be glad Tampa Bay has so many Canadian players like St. Louis and Lecavalier or they wouldn't even have made play-offs. Good thing the American teams can afford skill

Is it just me, or is this site running like an extra large piece of crap today...as opposed to the regular sized piece of crap it usually runs like?

Yes, it is running like a piece of crap...moreso than usual.

And that wasn't a goal else it would've counted.

It was a goal...it crossed the line, but they didn't examine the footage to see that until the play was continued, and by then it was too late. I've seen the footage in slo-mo...it does cross. If that goal was counted that game would have never gone into overtime because the Flames would have won it, and the Stanley cup in period 3. Boo-urns. Yea well, $hit happens...there is always this season.

It may have been a goal, but it was ruled that it wasn't...therefore no goal it was.
