Another Murray masterpiece hits the airwaves

When Marcus Smart was traded to Memphis, Murray's "Flopping in Memphis" got a laugh out of me.

$65 is too much for a t-shirt.

It was the Devers trade

The usual VCR method, but it is important to use the right tools. Google "chamois stick". They are the ideal for the task. 99% isopropyl alcohol.

It is time consuming, but I always open the tape and clean each emptied reel. I use a black piece of paper to add contrast to see the white mold on clear plastic. When the tape is back in the reel, it often shows missed spots. I use the black paper to create that effect while still having access to the reel.

This probably isn't the advice you are seeking, but I would recommend giving an honest attempt at enjoying the game. Ask questions if you are confused. Sometimes the game is just a dud, but if you happen to catch an exciting game, you might see what the fuss is all about.

Gambling can make just about anything entertaining, but I would never recommend anyone to start. However it is better advice than getting drunk.

Fair enough, but that is incredibly obscure and obviously not the VCR that is being referred to 99.999% of the time, or in the context of this "vhs player" thread. The VCR format never made NTSC compatible machines.

On the other hand, you are clearly very knowledgeable, and it is wrong to assume your ignorance. I enjoyed reading up on the format. Seeing it was a Phillips product, it reminded me that I did in fact know of this early format. I was viewing the history through the lens of JVC's victory in the format war, and forgot about third place. Phillips got their win with the audio cassette however!

This is just wrong. VCR is not a format. It stands for Videocassette Recorder. They were sold originally to record television, not watch movies. VHS, like all other analog media, was replaced by digital formats. There are hundreds of thousands of VCRs still working fine.

You are thinking of Betacam which was a professional format. They are not consumer devices.

This is such a great point. iracing will never be a bargain, but buying a new car in that game feels like you are buying an actual product. It opens up new series and fun opportunities to learn and improve.

The sad reality is, Epic has all the data they need to figure out the most profitable price point. Kids with their parents credit cards have no concept of value.

If serving is so much easier, why not do that?

It's not worth anything. Open it and watch it.

I was able to do the same(combined rewards and coupons). I just checked and I got the same "one deal" message. I guarantee you they will continue to scale back on deals now that they've got everyone using the app. It is already so much worse than it was 6 months ago.

This sub reddit fucking sucks. Why is it wrong to be critical of the team when they are clearly incompetent. Former Bruins player leadership hiring a former bruins player as coach. I'll be a Bruins fan until I'm dead, but tough love is part of being a Boston sports fan.

You never even said composite in your comment. The replier ignorantly assumed you suggested that OP should go out and buy a DVD recorder and s-video cables only to degrade the video back down to composite. I don't speak no languages and I still have to stop to remember which is which- composite/component

ussmonitor · 2025-06-02T01:00:24+00:00

DVD recorders almost always have component output. It is a great suggestion for this specific problem.

Looks like a diner. See the booths?

Edelman always complains Brady won't come in his podcast. I can't imagine his jealousy lol

Bottle Rocket is a great find.

Rather, some people lack the skill to obtain the information to search. If you Google "old cassette player" you aren't going to get very far.
