I read it, however I'm not really into sports of any sort. I used to be into WWE, but then I came to NG and kinda grew out of it. That's more entertainment than sport though, more like a big soap opera.

So, how 'bout my 10-1 Giants?

We all know the Broncos will put together an amazing run at the end of the season and sweep through the playoffs for the win... oh, wait, perhaps not! I can't quite believe they still lead the division actually, thank goodness the Raiders and Chiefs suck (enough to both beat the Broncos this season...), and the Chargers lose every week Denver do!

Pfff.. who cares about the NFL!

It's all about hockey here in Canada :D

I enjoy that too, though there is even less coverage of that than there is the NFL here. Sticking with the Denver theme, its all about the Avalanche!

They suck, lets go buffalo bills god damit. They raped there last opponent 56 to 30 something well they may have been one of the worst teams in the league, but it was a confidence boster for them after 4 stright losses.

The only purpose the Bills have is screwing Dan Marino in the playoffs, after that they would do something no team have done before and they're glad they didn't.

Also how about the Redskins fans stuffing the pro bowl ballot?

Go and vote to either even it up or further the ballot stuffing so the changes will be made on fan voting.

When do you think a team based in Canada will finally retain their Stanley Cup glory?

While I don't care much for soccer but it would've been great had the Red Bulls won, the fact that they came this far is pretty amazing.

My reasons for liking the 49'ers are kinda silly. When I was a kid, I very loosely followed football, and just chose to support them because "they got a number for their name! fucking awesome!". Damn near picked them at random.

But alas, they aren't doing well this season. When, oh when, will my precious 49'ers return to the Super Bowl? When will they replace their shitty old stadium so they've got a snazzier place for home games? Sigh.

I don't really care who gets to the Super Bowl this year. Usually I just pick the underdog team and root for them so I seem smarter if they actually win. XD

Also, on a Newgrounds-related note, I apparently missed the submission of the Fallen Angel flashes. I need to check my damn NG notification e-mails more often. Next long-awaited and thought-abandoned flash I want to see on Newgrounds: Orgasm Girl 2.

Oh my.

At least you did get to see them denying Junior Seau his first shot on winning his Super Bowl ring, we all know what happened on his second and his final shot.

The first Orgasm Girl was not bad talking of making more, I really wish Zone-Sama would release another Teen Titans parody been a year now. I know its perverted but its funny. Anyway was going through some reviews when I saw a ancient account from 2001, well what made this so interesting was the name LaraCroft1800, it rang a bell so i looked and I think its one of my old accounts. Excuse the abysmal spelling on my reviews i though only MadamePompadour1759 was my old account ,this is so weird i give you a link http://laracroft1800.newgrounds.com/revi ews/flash.
It was easy to tell all capital letters all words joined with no breaks this is so cringe inducing I used to write like this.

Wow, it is almost 1000 pages, I have not been following EGB since I was gone.
Matter of fact, I am considering a possible return on 1000th page. Do not count on it though, I give it 20% of the chance that it happens.

We give it less.

Anyway, in relevant news, it shouldn't be too long now before I will have to pass one of the serious B/P icons of the time, gfox. I hate to do this but if I still want to move on the ranks a little before courtday kicks into pace, I have to.

Yeah he has missed some deposits, and I think (but I'm not sure at all) that he lost a deposit last month.

Oh and what happened was that the NG log couldn't connect to NG (because it was down) so all the stats went back to 0. Then you retrieve your stats again when everything is normal and you get all those stats back.
i.e. you have 1,000 exp, but you go to the NG log when there's a problem with Newgrounds, so the NG Log "thinks" you have 0 exp. But later you retrieve stats again and it's like OMG you got 1,000 experience points!!!1!1!

:D

Welcome to the Barracks! I'm the Barracks Recruitment Officer, Supreme Commander Slash Firestorm. It's my job to examine new prospective recruits and see if they've got what it takes to join the EGB.

Let me explain how the recruitment process works.

Currently you are in "Standby Status" while your case is considered. During this process, me and the other Barracks members will take a look at your record---posting quality, review history/quality, flash record, etc---and see if there are any problems.

Don't worry, we're not too strict about these things; we just want to make sure that you have a decent posting record (not too many one-liners and no flaming/spamming), don't make abusive reviews or rulebreaking flash, etc..

After a period of discussion amongst the Barracks members, I (or my superiors) will make the final call. Assuming that no objections are raised, this Standby Status should only last approximately 24 hours. I will PM you with the final verdict.

Barracks members can go to the appropriate discussion thread at our forums and vote on/discuss the prospective recruit. Remember that you must be logged in to view/vote/post there. Speak now or forever hold your peace.

Agreed! Also, Divine Intervention 2, which we were promised long ago :( Why do the good guys always abandon Flash...

That game was so much fun. Who knows, it could be an epic surprise 4 years in the making. I call a free-roaming game a-la GTA 1, 2 or London. But with better graphics

I don't know why people assume that since a user is so high in the rankings that they never miss deposits.

Pimp has missed plenty of deposits. I've not missed one for about 2.5 - 3 years. That's a guarantee and I can trace it back that far as well.

I can also tell you one time during the last 9 years that he has missed a deposit - when the site was redesigned. Pimp didn't deposit before the site went down at the start of the redesign and I'm not sure that it caught one when the site came back up either.

23 isn't bad in 9 years, because that's about 3,280 deposits. I've missed a sum total of 6 deposits since the 28th of April 2004. I'm happy about that.

Cool. I mean, I've been relatively faithful to my depositing over the past year compared to a lot of other Newgrounders I've known, but even over that short time frame I've missed more than that... Mostly when my computer was in the shop because XP-tan was being a whore.

Hmm deposits. I've missed plenty actually since after my sign up, I left NG for about a year from lack of interest. so I missed pretty much a whole year's worth of depositing, but my overall level isn't bad.
