After the Bruins won, I had two pages of Facebook comments within 10 minutes. In this case, a "page" is how far down you scroll before FB says you need to click something to load older posts. That's about 30-40 comments.

After the USA lost to Japan just now, I have a whopping three comments.

They are drowning in sorrow :D

so what part of my statement is wrong? :cool:

You're implying that the NFL lockout is to blame for no NFL games on TV now, and that isn't true. Even in a perfect season with no labor issues, the first NFL game wouldn't be until the end of July or first of August.

The lockout isn't going to last much longer. They might not end it in time to keep the first preseason game, but they'll end it in time to have a full regular season.

I said currently there is more people watching FIFA Women's World Cup than NFL :p

Well my back spasms have stopped. I still have pain in my back but those spasms were incredibly painful and now I perfectly understand how they can sideline pro athletes for a couple of weeks.

I think that if AMD doesn't announce a firm release date in September by 8/1 or if we don't have more official benchmarks by then, I may give up and build a 2600K rig.

I have never had this much pain in my life. I had some spasms earlier this year that were pretty painful, but damn, these were 10x worse. It felt like someone put you in a vice and was crushing you while you were getting knifed.
