A History of Violence
Read more reviews.
Good movie but after the reviews I heard I was a little disappointed. It was well done and unpredictable, but a little unfulfilling. The first half of the movie was great and you're really trying to figure out what's going on and who he really is, but the second half I kept waiting for some really great, unexptected twist and it never came.

Colorado at Texas
Vince Young played about as good a game as a quarterback can today. The Rose Bowl is his signature game but he did all of that on his own and most of it with his legs, today he showed everyone that he’s a complete football player. He ran and threw the ball effortlessly today and played a near flawless game. His final stats: 25 of 29 for 338 yards and 2 touchdowns and add 59 yards and 3 more TD’s on the ground. Just as importantly, his receivers showed up today as well. David Thomas had 5 catches and converted several important third downs and Limas Sweed had 7 catches, 88 yards, and 2 touchdowns. I don’t remember a single dropped ball and there were probably 5 fantastic catches. If we had a healthy Jamaal Charles or if we had kept putting the ball in the air in the second half we could have won by 40. A very complete football game by the Horns.

NLDS - Braves vs. Astros
Series is tied 1 - 1 after two games in Atlanta. Both games were well played and tight for about 7 innings till they got blown open late against the bullpens.

I really can't stand Drew Barrymore, she annoys me and I think she's cute about an eighth of the time.
Movie was pretty good but of course as lame as you would think it would be.

Texas at Missouri
Sloppy and ugly for the first quarter or so. Texas was plagued by penalties and other mistakes throughout the game, especially early on. Once the offense got rolling and the defense settled down it was clear they were the better team. Vince Young played well and made the huge plays when he had to. His scramble on 3rd and 30 was a game changing play. Aside from the ball that was poorly thrown and tipped at the line of scrimmage that resulted in an interception, he made every throw he had to make. He threw for 2 TD’s and had another one (or two) that the refs claimed were incomplete that sure looked like touchdowns to me.
Jamaal Charles is officially the real deal and it’s exciting to finally see Ramonce Taylor getting his hands on the ball again.

Aggies suck
The Aggies are only up by 6 and the half is almost over. Bobcats are driving too and will take the lead if they score. Aggies have gotten several turnovers and big plays but have only put 20 on the scoreboard. Plus they can't stop the mighty Texas State offense either. I predict Texas A&M wins 45 to 31.
I know like at least 5 people on the Texas State roster and a member of the coaching staff. A guy I played with is dominating the formidable
Aggy defensive line.
By the way, the Aggy radio announcers (who are doing the TV for this game) are terrible and have no idea what's going on half the time.

Invasion pilot
Show looks good after one episode. Looks like another show I'll have to watch every week so I don't miss anything. It's like Lost but with aliens. Read the link if you want a decent show synopsis.

Lost season premiere
Great premiere. Revealed a lot of the stuff left hanging from last season but not everything. We see inside the hatch is quite elaborate, and pretty high tech for about 20 years previous (when the people were supposedly stranded.) Jack somehow knew the guy running things down there.

Crash

Enjoyed it for the most part, but it was a little over the top. Plus every 5 seconds people would say completely racist things right to other peoples' faces. In today's society, racism is still prevalent but it's much more under the surface. Seemed far fetched. Plus the coincidences that repeatedly tied the many characters together were unbelievable.

Not any NFL games
Philadelphia and San Francisco? Houston and Pittsburgh? Green Bay and Cleveland? Those were my choices of NFL games to watch this afternoon. Complete crap. The first two were complete blowouts between teams I couldn't care less about, and the third one was a close but boring game between teams I couldn't care less about.
I need NFL Sunday Ticket.
