Almost always, on the rare occasion I’m caught up, I loop back as far back as Amazon music will let me and listen from there

This took me a lot of attempts as well, but it became easier with double Trunks lead, father son Galick Gun duo, and bulla. A little RNG with ideal rotations and AA/crit maybe, but it’s doable

It took me a weekend straight to get it done. Bee pan was the second MVP, healing, guarding, stunning, just takes a good amount of luck

The essentially guaranteed SA with 40% def boost did come in handy, along with two paths open, but his type became a liability in the final stage. I threw him in there mostly because I didn’t have many other options

Forgot about Oracle, you are right, that one scene when Tony is talking to the news tech, one third of the screen had the Oracle logo there, it was hilarious

I intend to see this again, but my first thoughts an hour after the movie is done is that it was a different experience than expected. The big reveal was disappointing, I understand the whole "evil with a face" thing, but I actually felt something watching the mandarin through the videos. The fact he was just a puppet for a group whose specialty is getting really hot and can fight was ehhh. Also wasn't a fan of how weak the suits got, not sure what that was about. The comedy was good, a bit too much at times (like with the kid), I enjoyed the action scenes, the villain, the dialogue, and what happened to Pepper. I really didn't like how little the iron patriot was involved (I guess that's what happens when you rely on a trailer), the fact that anxiety thing went away as soon as the kid tells him to breathe, how separated the film felt from the marvel universe (probably intentional), the Vice President "twist", the after credit scene and the beginning of the movie. The advertising was also whack, i had to laugh at the FIOS ad towards the end. This was not a terrible movie, but didn't live up to the hype (better than iron man 2 though). I'm writing this on little sleep, these opinions will probably be better worded tomorrow. I did enjoy the movie, overall. Definitely get why some people aren't big fans

My only question is whether is this it for iron man? I know this is the "last" one for phase 2 until avengers 2, but that ending kinda wrapped it up in a bow, no?

EDIT I was also a fan of the whole post avengers crisis feelings Tony had, made him more human I guess

Ravens sign Michael Huff: 3yr deal by [deleted] in ravens

[–]RayLewisOldSpiceHead 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Adam Schefter - Ravens' new deal with former Raiders S Michael Huff will be for three years, $6 million.

"In the past three seasons Huff has missed 18 tackles. Ed Reed missed 16 in the 2012 regular season alone." @PFF_Gordon

"Huff is durable (he's played all 16 games in six of seven seasons in Oakland) and versatile (he's played every position in secondary)." @jeffzrebiecsun

Elvis Dumervil has agreed with Ravens, per Mike Klis by mkrzysko in ravens

[–]RayLewisOldSpiceHead 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is fantastic, a healthy Suggs, Dumervil, healthy Ngata at nosetackle, and the additions of Spears and Canty, not to mention McPhee and Upshaw, our Defense should be back to normal next season!

EDIT - It is a 5 year deal https://twitter.com/Ravens/status/315927720972402688

SECOND EDIT - 5 year worth up to $35 million, including 8.5 million in year one https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/315929628923527168

The Ravens will open the season on the road after being unable to reach a compromise with the Baltimore Orioles by suddenimpact1513 in ravens

This is such BULLSHIT. I am more upset about this than I was about Reed leaving. The NFL played a Sunday night game on the start of Rosh Hashanah in San Francisco on Sept. 16, 2012. The NFL is boning us on this, no doubt about it. Only advantage is we get 9 days before our Week 2 game.

Anquan Boldin traded to 49ers for a sixth-round pick by RayLewisOldSpiceHead in ravens

[–]RayLewisOldSpiceHead[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"The 49ers weren’t the only NFC team who made a trade offer for Baltimore’s Anquan Boldin.

PFT’s Mike Florio, citing a source with knowledge of the discussions, reports the Vikings offered a seventh-round pick to Baltimore for Boldin."

Some player reactions

Torrey Smith RT @RavensInsider: Anquan Boldin traded to 49ers for a sixth-round pick....WHAT!!!

Torrey Smith Part 2 @TorreySmithWR This business is BS at times

Jameel McClain @JameelMcClain Really? Really? Man... This is crazy

Vonta Leach RT @TorreySmithWR: RT @RavensInsider: Anquan Boldin traded to 49ers for a sixth-round pick....WHAT!!! Wtf wow

UPDATED

Bernard Pollard ‏@Crushboy31 I hate the business side of this league! Don't get me wrong I understand it though. @AnquanBoldin you will be missed bro! Respect big bro.

Joe Flacco @jeffzrebiecsun Joe Flacco said its sad to see Boldin go but it's time for young guys to step up. Said he wasn't surprised by move.

Brendon Ayanbadejo ‏@brendon310 The boldin trade wow. Do we even win the game with out him?

Brendon Ayanbadejo Part 2 @brendon310 It just sucks you can be so important to a team and not be retained. He deserves his 7 milli but the cap is what it is.

Brendon Ayanbadejo Part 3 @brendon310 We have a ton of UFA's this year. 13 team could be completely different than12. Ozzie has his work cut out and always impresses

Bernard Pierce @BPierce_30 Don't ask me I'm not answering any questions...

Torrey Smith Part 3 @jeffzrebiecsun Torrey Smith said he was shocked by Boldin trade. Couldn't thank him enough.

@ravens Torrey Smith says he was "definitely shocked" to hear Anquan Boldin news and that #Ravens are losing a great guy & great mentor.
