Frank Gore (The Inconvenient Truth), running back for the Indianapolis Colts, currently has 13,574 career rushing yards. 89 more yards will put him ahead of HoFer (for some reason) RB Jerome Bettis and 111 more yards will move him ahead of LdT into the top five all time. The way the Colts season has been going, Gore will break into the top five in two games and be ~200 yards short of Curtis Martin for 4th overall at the end of the season. Gore will also break the RB record of consecutive seasons with 5+ TDs if he reaches that milestone this season. He is currently tied at 11 seasons with five HoFers. Unfortunately, Gore's contract is up after this season and it seems unlikely that anyone will want to hire a RB in his mid-30s, so this is probably the end of his career. I would like to take a moment to reflect on the career of this future HoFer as he approaches this significant milestone in NFL history. Please feel free to share your favorite Frank Gore moments, like when Kyle Williams cost him a ring or the Niners decided to throw in the redzone against the Ravens.

The real way to win at monopoly is just buying houses and not hotels. Also get the railroads.

Stop comparing him to SB champion Jerome Bettis. The Bus has nothing to do with that washed up fat gently caress ugly self-farting waste of space named Francis Vivian Gore

Speaking of SB winning RB's, maybe we should talk about LeGarrette Blount instead?

Gore doesn't have the TD count of Bettis or Martin. As someone great once said, Gods score touchdowns son, peasants of the land make FG

I became a Seattle fan not after Super Bowl 48 but Super Bowl 49-after seeing their humiliating defeat against the Patriots because of that terrible play and interception at the last second. It was a heart breaker, but I fell in love with how well they played. It also helps that Seattle is a city where a lot of what I love originated from (Hendrix, Cobain, Pearl Jam, Neuromancer and the Cyberpunk genre, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Starbucks). This was the first football season I've ever followed and following the Hawks was amazing, especially in week 17 when I won a hoodie off a bet-that was the moment where I became both a member and believer of the 12s. To see Cam Newton run us over in the divisional round was one thing. To see him do so when it was clear that his team was over-depending on him was another. What really made me salty, and boy howdy was I full of salt , was the simple fact that he compared himself to Superman. How he kept wearing Superman shirts and also how his home field played the John Williams theme. This became nerd rage, and I wanted to see Batman beat Superman. Russel Wilson wasn't Batman and going into this game I was hoping Peyton would be. It turned out Von Miller was the Dark Knight, as he was sacking and pressuring Cam was glorious. This little internal narrative of mine was helped by the constant ad presence for Batman V Superman. Congrats, Broncos and Von Miller. Congrats for avenging us. Here's looking forward to my team's 40th season PS: If you're reading Febreeze, I'd like to see a comic where Cam Newton as Superman has the MVP sack-stripped from him by Von Miller as Batman.

Also yeah I do feel a lot less enthusiasm for this season. Being constantly reminded of this being a bloodsport, awful offensive line play and I guess fatigue is setting in. 3 years ago people wouldn't stop talking about the Seahawks, and you were shunned if you didn't wear a jersey on blue Friday. Today I rarely hear talk about the Seahawks around Seattle, and no one gives a poo poo about blue Friday anymore.

I'm glad the Bengals lost. I'm glad because I'm not sure I would be able to hold myself to this decision if they had won. I had an amazing seat for the game, and was perfectly placed to see the hit made on Giovanni Bernard. This is a kid who has been every bit the upstanding citizen, and builds schools in Haiti with his wealth. What I realized when I was asked to watch a player lower his eyes to the grass and drive the crown of his helmet through Gio's head over and over is that the NFL doesn't care at all about these people. I guess I always knew that but it really drove the point home. The NFL reviewed the play to see whether their idiotic notion of what is and isn't a catch was held to. They reviewed the play to see whether Gio's wrist touched the ground. They reviewed the play to see if he was able to hold on to a bit of leather as he lost consciousness. They forced us to watch Ryan Shazier do exactly what they claim to be trying to prevent over twenty times. I finally came to terms with the fact that the reason the NFL doesn't make a more serious effort to enforce these penalties is because they don't give a drat about Giovanni Bernard. As I watched fans throw cans and bottles at the officials I realized that had more to do with the colors on the uniforms than the fact that that one hit will almost certainly have a major impact on the kid's life. I like the team because I like the players. Players don't give a poo poo about personal fouls because they're called arbitrarily, and until the NFL makes personal fouls reviewable I am not consuming another second of football. I should stop outright regardless, but I love the game. I will miss chatting with y'all but I can't justify following a sport that has such flagrant disregard for the welfare of its players. I'll see y'all in other subforums.

Metapod is young and doesn't understand the actions of spreading minsinformation. The most valuable squares are red and orange because they're most likely to land upon squares due to jail. They're also the cheapest to develop on in the early to mid game. Yellow and Green are both cash sinks that end up having to get flipped when you land on someones red or orange square. Using railroads is only good if you can land all 4, elsewise they're useless. Purple is okay due to it being cheap to develop and you can use up the limited houses on it. Pink and light blue aren't really worth it because jail skips light blue and you'd have to roll snake eyes to land on pink coming out of jail. Utilities are useless. Also there's no such thing as a free parking jackpot and when you don't want a square it goes up to auction, not back to the deed pile.

On the flip side light blue rule because developing them costs almost nothing and they are able to fund your higher level housing purchases on the more expensive / better properties.
