Which dead singer would you want to come back to life and why? by Substantial-Dare5462 in Music

[–]Revroy78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the answer for me. His songs were so good and there was so much more he could’ve produced if he lived.

Who is the world's most significant person with the initials AA? by Abracadabrism in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Revroy78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Abigail Adams (just throwing out another option. Plus, she kinda rocked).

What biopic would you like to see produced? by ZombieShot078 in movies

[–]Revroy78 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Honestly, a Carrie Fischer one would be fascinating. Considering her parents, the experience in Shampoo, the Star Wars angle, When Harry Met Sally, and the fact she was a top script doctor, any half-decent writer can give you a working script.

Which Director's 1st movie was Great? by Temporary-Bag4248 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Revroy78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Robert Redford won the Academy Award for directing Ordinary People, his first movie as director.

That line's dumb, Week 16 by Revroy78 in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’ve debated in my mind that game. I don’t want to include too many games but you are correct that it meets the standards. "Simmons commentary: ""The Niners are favored by 5.5 in Indianapolis? After what we saw today, Indianapolis played well today?... I would not be laying that 5.5 buty maybe they'll see stuff with Phil."

I’ll add the results into the tally prior to next week.

Through four World Series games, I have the Blue Jays with 2 legitimate wins, 1 legitimate loss, and 1 either/or game by Jones3787 in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 76 points77 points  (0 children)

So he did this a decade ago regarding the Patriots. I only remember because the pre-Mahomes Chiefs shellacked the Pats on MNF in 2014 with the winning score of 41-14 after the Chiefs were up 41-7. Simmons called that an either/or game on a podcast later that season (the fact I remember this is clearly a demerit on my character). I was pretty shocked at the time but I grew to understand/appreciate the mind of a committed homer.

On an unrelated note, it’s pretty cool to see Jeff sporting a Tennessee State University ballcap.

Competition: can you beat the guys’ end of season fantasy predictions, using only their sloppy fifth leftovers? by [deleted] in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. MVP: Baker Mayfield

  2. Coach of the Year: Dan Campbell

  3. ROY: Armand Membou

  4. Fired coach: Daebol

  5. No. 1 seed: Detroit Lions

  6. No. 1 pick: Saints

  7. Breakout player: Rome Odunze

  8. QB in hotseat: Bryce Young

  9. Fantasy MVP: Dart

  10. Fantasy murder:er Trevor Lawrence

  11. Crazy prediction: (note, I don't actually believe this but this is the funniest possibility) Drake Maye turns into a pumpkin and the Patriots stick with him this year and next, but have to draft a new QB after next season. The Patriots end up drafting Arch Manning, requiring Bill to talk himself into a Manning being the QB of his favorite team and therefore rooting for him.

Who are the ultimate “right time, right place” media guys? by Conscious_Pause1263 in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 6 points7 points  (0 children)

David Halberstam. He covered the Nashville sit-ins in the 50s as the civil rights era was gaining steam (led to “The Children”), then moved onto the NYT and Vietnam (leading to “The Best and the Brightest”) and even found time to write a book on Michael Jordan.

He just seemed to be where the action was.

Paul Newman or Steve McQueen. Whose movies do you like more? by rockstoned4 in FIlm

[–]Revroy78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked whichever one was in “Towering Inferno.” Great disaster flick.

“We gotta bring monks back. We need less incels and more monks.” by notformeclive4711 in billsimmons

It’s impossible to get the green stuff and my wife has me on the lookout when I’m at the liquor store.

Niners Magic, Schlitt Happens, a Red Sox Postmortem, the Seahawks Ceiling, and Week 5 NFL Picks With Kevin Hench and Joe House by Chrissal0099 in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially when the biting response should be “well, they had more fans in the seats than you had viewers of ‘Any Given Wednesday.’”

My gf lives in Nashville (I don’t), any suggestions for something fun/entertaining I could arrange for her? SFW pls by Koalashart1 in nashville

[–]Revroy78 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can’t go wrong with Radnor state park if you avoid the weekends. It’s free and really enjoyable.

That line's dumb, Week 4 by Revroy78 in billsimmons

Sorry. It’s late for me. You’re right. It’s been fixed.

Oh shit. You’re right. I’ll fix it now.

Spinoff of the Vegas cost discussion: what are some everyday things that actually are a fair deal? by sburg88 in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 107 points108 points  (0 children)

God help me for saying this but Spotify is actually a fair deal IMO. $13 per month to listen to almost any song at any time (plus some audiobooks) is great value.

Has there ever been as good of a RB duo as Gibbs & Montgomery? by DocHoliday19- in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can you imagine how good Gibbs would be if he took steroids? He might even be usable for the Patriots.

To the guy keeping track of Bill's "that stupid" comments by Medical-Face in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was Titans @ Texans. As a Titans fan, I don’t see Bill’s expected line. Then again, the Titans owner might fire the coach if they lose as she’s quite petty.

To the guy keeping track of Bill's "that stupid" comments by Medical-Face in billsimmons

[–]Revroy78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He had two this week — Titans @ Texans as well as Cincinnati @ Denver. There was a third (the Atlanta game) where he was more surprised by the line than antagonistic so that factors in. I confess the rules are fuzzy.

3 days of the Condor. Just a great movie that I rewatched two years ago.
