  1. What's impressive is Tebow only had ten completions, but they went for 300+ yards. 30+ yards per completion is ridiculous, to say the least.
  2. Me either... I thought it might last a while, but it ended just like that. I didn't expect Tim to throw an 80-yard pass, that's for sure.
  3. Holy cow, what a throw. Say what you want about Tebow's throwing, he had a ton of big throws this game. -Toa Nidhiki05
  4. Absolutely amazing writing. The story was captivating from beginning to end, merging serious themes of death, destiny, and fate with BIONICLE storyline and believable characterization. This is truly a masterpiece, an incredible written art.-TN05
  5. I've never supported gender-exclusive LEGO lines and likely never will; it isn't even that this isn't a solid idea (which in fact it is, with a complex story that is uncommon in stuff marketed at girls). However, I doubt that, even with a highly-executed story and all sorts of complex sets, it would succeed.Why? It all hinges on LEGO bringing in an entirely new market, because the old one (7-13 year old males) would have at least a significant portion alienated. You basically have to bring in enough new fans to A) make up for any loss in market (which would be significant) with an influx of new customers and http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/cool.png keep the new fans hooked for a period of time to recoup losses from production and marketing, which would also be significant.As opposed to a typical 'new LEGO line', which can appeal to both the market of the previous line and a new market, any girls line assumes enough female fans will come in to make up for the loss of the male ones. Unless LEGO makes it low-budget and uses little to no promotion, even if the line does pick up sales, it might have to run for a few years in the red before it can make a profit. I'm not an expert, but I'd guess that that would be why most girls-oriented LEGO lines flopped - they either couldn't bring in enough new fans or couldn't make a profit even why they did.Don't get me wrong, this is a nice idea. I just doubt it would work given the marketing aspects and precedent.-Toa Nidhiki05
  6. Tough choices... I'dgo with Sproles, personally - the Ravens underuse Rice sometimes. Sproles will get action on passes, rushes, and returns. And considering the Lions gave up 480 yards and 6 TDs to Matt Flynn, Brees would be a good start as well.
  7. @Smiki - Jackie Chan over Norris? @DeeVee - Far and away the MVP to me. Brees has records, but throws many more balls and has twice as many picks. Rodgers is much more efficient and has a better record. @Necro - Surprised on the last two. I'm a Panthers fan so I obviously liked Newton, but I didn't expect anyone here to put him in the list. As to the last two, not sure Tebow should be on it because he didn't play in five games this year.
  8. Alright, give me you're top three picks for MVP. -Toa Nidhik05
  9. That's sad. Autotune should never outsell pure genius.Thing is, the Beatles existed in a time where consumers bought full albums instead of just singles, cause many artists believed that albums were made as one and should stay as one. (better example, Pink Floyd). Today, a lot of artists just release singles, and then a compilation album every so often.So comparing sales of singles between today and 40 years ago really doesn't show much. Agreed. Singles take predominance since they are cheaper (1.29 at most instead of upwards of $3 dollars for a physical one) now than ever before.

    New Year

    Rang in the New Year by watching the TBS Big Bang Theory marathon. Funny stuff, and better than the 'New Years Party' they had on CBS. I'm still wondering why Carlos Santana would be anywhere close to Bieber AND Pitbull at the ball drop, let alone in the same booth. -TN05
  11. People are making a big deal over Katy Perry getting close to breaking Michael Jackson's record of five number-one singles on a single album, but it isn't going to happen. Even with the .69 cent discount and the BoB remix, she isn't close to LMFAO or Rihanna in digital sales, and that isn't even counting the rise of Adele's new single. My guess is LMFAO stays on top for another week before being supplanted by Adele - all the while, Perry gets stuck at No. 2 or No. 3, behind Adele and Rihanna's singles. It's not going to happen, people - MJ's record is safe - for the time being. Adele might get three more for all I know, she just doesn't stop selling albums/singles/whatever she releases. -Toa Nidhiki05
  12. That pun was... um..Excellent job, as always. Great visuals, but awful pun. XP-TN05
  13. Yay, a new comic! ^_^Great job as always. Tahu even got to party with the HootHoot! Not much to complain about, great job. -TN05
  14. Congrats to them both.
  15. I still don't see the need to for a girls LEGO line. Wouldn't it be more efficient to make LEGO lines that everyone can like rather than those that only appeal to a new base (young girls) and possibly the collector's market? I'm not an expert in marketing, but that seems like an easier route to me.-Toa Nidhiki05
  16. I've attempted to post in the topic Mata Nui Adventures three times, but each time my post has disappeared. The post was not spam and did not violate any rules, so I am not sure why it keeps disappearing.-Toa Nidhiki05
  17. It is, Twilight. You gotta eat there if you can find one.
  18. Just got back from eating at Five Guys Burgers and Fries; delicious as always.
  19. In no particular order:*Rock Band Keyboard*Steven Curtis Chapman t-shirt*Several video albums (two by MercyMe and one by Michael W. Smith)*A Nook*Candy*Candy*Candy-TN05
  20. I'm more interested in the Feats of Strength, personally.
