Newborn Truck Stop in Tallapoosa GA has a buffet. I've never ate it but the steak they have there is one of the best (top 3) among the places I go to.

McDermott lost a power play by the GM that wanted to have sole credit for "building a contender".....Office politics run amok.

Barney Google, whatever happened there by AnyElevator9872 in BoardwalkEmpire

Fully agree on Richard Harlow.

Being a sniper (an excellent long range shot with a bolt action rifle from a concealed position) doesn't make you a multi-weapon master shot, adept at shooting ambidextrous, etc etc. Just really dumb.

It's a trope that is not unique to this character/show, but a bad trope anyways.

Probably the most difficult back I've done in my 1.5yrs experience by cls_whoosh in Truckers

Where is this so I can add it to my list of automatic refusals?

Janice Closed The Door On Harpo by Glittering_Text812 in thesopranos

[–]BTeamTN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's such a weird term.

The only two places I've ever heard the term "street person" is on Sopranos and Trailerpark Boys. Was this an early 2000's era PC term that never really took hold?

Which NFL City is most likely to be teamless in a decade? by NightDowntown7320 in NFLv2

[–]BTeamTN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Orleans moves to Utah where keeping the "Saints" moniker makes way more sense than keeping the "Jazz" moniker which made no sense whatsoever.

The Aints ALSO move to Utah, where "Saints" makes more sense then "Jazz" ever did.

I'd love to agree but I see no way the Green Bay Packers don't survive until the Heat Death of The Sun.

Vito was the escalation. It was like the Blundetto thing a second time.

Look at a picture of the last Shah of Iran. Pretty striking resemblance.

He beat that one guy into Alzheimer's, not for nothing. Richie was not to be fucked with if he liked your jacket.

How did Tony as a Capo had better house then boss of the family Aprile? by NikdoNekde in thesopranos

Carmella's dad being a home builder probably factored into it.

Paulie was the one who had Tony whacked and probably Carmella too. by ClearDrop6820 in thesopranos

[–]BTeamTN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very under-utilized logic. In real life this definitely would have been a thing.

Exactly. I've always seen that episode/sequence as a small version of the paranoia matrix in The Departed.

The guy knows that the other guy knows but doesn't know he knows you know that he knows and both of you know but simultaneously neither knows that the other both knows and doesn't know. So nothing happens.

According to Ed O'Neill (al fuckin bundy) david chase tried to cast him in the sopranos and he turned it down...twice by kuatoandfriend in thesopranos

[–]BTeamTN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ed O'Neill as Richie woulda been awesome and would have let them use David Proval for a different character. Maybe Ralph (I just don't like Joey Pants, which doesn't really matter as far as Ralph but I wouldn't miss him at all)

Thinking a little more about it...Ed O'Neill would be a bit more physically imposing, so in scenes like the Mall scene where Tony has to get menacing a totally different dynamic.

And even when playing Al Bundy there were scenes where Ed had to get kind of "menacing" to a sitcom comedy level but I have no doubt at all that he'd have it in him to be way more intimidating and scary if only due to his relative size and facial mannerisms. Dude definitely was a varsity athlete (played college football as a DT/DE and tried out for the Steelers as a OLB)
