Gotta love those Chi-townians. Only thing bad about them is that 75% of them immediately jumped off the Bulls Bandwagon when Jordan left. Some of the people here aren't too supportive of their sports teams.

I'm so tired of coming here and seeing these sports threads. This is a tech forum. If you want to talk about sports there are forums out there for that. All these threads turn into flame fests eventually.

Someone should lock this thread.

I've seen it happen before. The sports people come around and start talking about hockey . . . the next thing you know it's football and baseball.

Not only are there no flames here, no one asked you if you like these threads or not. The subject of the thread should have been a clue to you that it was about sports, why go any farther if you don't like it? A lot of your more recent posts sound just like this one, asking to close threads. Why do you bother?

For the record, my favorite team is the often-overlooked Montreal Expos. Sure, it's probably their last season, but the team has so many terrific players and they're still fun to watch.

It's a Joke.

Actually, I don't ask for threads to be closed very often. So, you really don't know what your talking about.

However, I find it interesting that when a post like mine here, is placed in a thread about theology or politics . . . that's OK . . . but when it's in a sports thread someone comes back and says the very same thing that the whiners are told in the political threads. That . . . I find humorous.

Sorry silly_walk . . . you fell victim to a "mind-f**k." I don't care what anyone posts . . . this is a General Forum and I believe it should be open to any type of discussion. I do want to thank you for proving a point for me though!

;)

P.S. The sports threads do quite often turn into flame gardens.

TimeRider, if that was just a joke, it just makes people more likely to call you a troll!

My favorite sports team is the Jordan F1 team, they have a great attitude, and a lot of fun. Damon Hill seemed to really enjoy himself with them after races.

What makes me laff about football (REAL FOOTBALL, not 'american football'), is when people say 'did you see it when we last played'. The word 'we'. Makes me laff, its like die hard supporters think they are a member of the team. Hmmm.

Also people who support a team for no reason other than they live in that city/town. That strikes me as odd.

I like Jordans attitude to racing, I dont happen to live near their HQ, or know one of them. I just think they are pretty cool.

What reasons do you all support your teams for? I'm curious now my mind has started ticking over :p

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
