Didn't see a thread on this, but anyone else watching? Premiered Monday, based on a book series that came out a few years ago. Vampires, Apocalypse, etc. Will see how far they wander from the book series, but thought the first episode was pretty solid/faithful to the start of the book. Will...

Question I've been playing around with, thought it might be a fun Trek Lit thread: What is your favorite 'type' of Trek book? Having read just about all of them, and most MANY times, there's some generalized buckets I could put some of the books into, and I find for sure that I seem to enjoy...

Regular season is upon us, time to transition to the new thread. Opening kickoff on Thursday, Patriots vs. Steelers. Anyone think Brady will have trouble getting amped up? Goodell already isn't coming to Foxboro (first time Commissioner skips Opening Night?), let's see how long he can hide...

Regular season thread closed, so time to open up the Offseason thread. Should have some free agent movement in a couple weeks, draft after that, and at least a few players will be arrested soon, now that they are no longer under constant supervision. Discuss!

So, anyone catch The Last Ship, new show on TNT last night before Falling Skies? Without spoiling too much, premise is that a US Navy Destoyer is up around the North Pole for ~4 months for testing/drills, and turns out that it's really a cover for a CDC mission. A plague has gotten out of...

So, didn't see the tourney bracket challenge this year, so set one up. Sign up here: http://y.ahoo.it/AgpCROec Password: spock Good luck. Personally, I'm planning to win the billion, so you're playing for seconds at least ;)

With the lockout officially done with, time to fire up the league for the upcoming season. Mr.Coaster, if you wouldn't mind flipping the switch, we can get this thing rolling. Set up a time we can make for a late-August evening (how about the 28th, 8pm EDT ish?) draft, and then I can start my...

So, I'm a pretty fast reader, and as such, tend to burn through a lot of books. I've run out of my backlog, and staring at my massive book collection, I can't muster up the energy to re-read any of my books for the 1000th time right now. For example, just re-read all 10 or 11 books of the...

As usual, I've opened up the Fantasy Baseball thread (and teams) as early as possible! Gotta get a jump start on obsessing over my teams! Anyway, looking for 11 brave souls to sign up for the yearly TrekBBS Baseball league. Please send me a PM with your email address in it, and I'll send you...

Well, this was a bit of a shocker, but Manny Ramierez was just suspended 50 games for using PEDs. Details on that not out yet, but here's the link: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4148907 Wouldn't have thought he'd have done it. Just such a good hitter already, why go there...

Hey all, Working through something, but thought I'd toss it out to the group for ideas: I'm in the market for a motorcycle, so am checking out Craigslist and the like for what I want. I've found a nice one (a 2007 Honda Shadow) with low miles, and dressed out the way I want. In contacting...

Hey all, It's about that time again, so starting up the new Fantasy Baseball thread for talking trades, talking shit, and just boasting about our teams. There's the 3rd year of the TrekBBS Keeper league, with yours truly as the defending Champ looking to repeat, while shaming Coaster...

Scout101 is off the market. Asked my girlfriend of 3 years to marry me over the weekend, and she said yes! (obviously, otherwise this thread would be a lot more depressing :p ) Went out for dinner for our anniversary, and walked around the city beforehand. Stopped in front of the big Christmas...

Hey all, It's early yet, but Yahoo has opened up its registration for Fantasy Football, so I've gone ahead and renewed our league. The AFC League has the following info: League ID: 23254 Password: trek Draft time is set to August 21st, 8pm EST for the time being, and I copied the settings...

All, it's that time of year, Fantasy Baseball leagues have opened up for Yahoo. I've renewed the NL league from last year, so check back in to sign up, and if you see a spot, grab it. I'm sure the AL league will be started back up as well, as we hope to fill out both 12 team leagues, as...
