Re: [TV orNotTV] Re: NotTV: Using NSFW

2013-10-25 Thread Adam Bowie
Interesting idea. But let's not forget that the internet is international!
So words that may offend in one country, may not be so much of an issue in
another. Similarly violence is much less tolerated in some places, whilst
nudity is a more of a no-no in others.

I suppose NSFW at least warns you that buyer beware before clicking on a
link. It may or may not be a major issue in your own workplace...

 Joe Hass, to moi:

 Bob's post earlier made me think about the idea of NSFW: namely that
 simply labeling something NSFW doesn't really make it clear why it's NSFW.
 For example, the article he linked to would be perfectly fine for my office
 (an ad agency) because it's only language. Now, if you were to post a link
 to a nude photo taken of a star who's now suing over it, yeah: I'm going to
 break out the ol' iPhone and use ATT's bandwidth to read that item.

 I've always felt that NSFW deserves, like the TV rating system, an
 additional letter after it for why you think it's NSFW: P for photo, L for
 language, A for auto-playing audio, and V for auto-playing video. So if I
 were to link to the unedited version of Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines, I'd
 note NSFW-V

 As with everything related to the Internet, I do not expect this to carry
 on past me, but I just thought I'd share. Back to finding navigation models.


 Great idea, but now that I've seen the referred-to post in GG, I should
 have put the notation next to the link, not in the subject...  B

 If the NFL really wanted to change up the Pro Bowl, they could try out
the
 Canadian rulebook. The CFL games I’ve watched almost always finish within
 their scheduled three-hour block.

How many TV timeouts are there, and how long are they? That's most likely
the difference, not the rulebooks.

At least 10 per half in reg-season games, of one or two minutes per, this

Re: [TV orNotTV] Parks Rec Feeling Community

2013-10-25 Thread Bob in Jersey

PGage, to moi:

 If that applies to kicks out of the endzone as well, then about 75% of all 
 NFL games would begin 1-0 these days.

 The NFL is probably very close to doing away with kickoffs all together. 


They tossed it to their competition committee as the 2012 reg. season 
ended... never heard about it since.   B

How many TV timeouts are there, and how long are they? That's most likely
the difference, not the rulebooks.
 
With last night's Toronto/Winnipeg game in the background, I don't see a
huge difference in TV timeouts, although there's no commercial break after a
post-TD kick-off.
 
Also:
Each team has only one time-out per half.
The offence has 20 seconds from the ref's whistle to snap the ball.
 
See here for other differences.
