I had the same problem too. I now pause each video for 10 seconds at the beginning of it, to give it a chance to load, and I no longer have the problem.

Just because it's decriminalized does not make it legal. Up to an ounce is still illegal, but you are only fined, rather than arrested. It's illegal in the same sense as driving 35 in a school zone is illegal.

Not really taking sides. Just pointing out that weed is not legal in Massachusetts.

This is the way to do it.
Regardless of what the Cavs are doing, the Celtics still have the better record, the longest winning streak, the championship rings, and at least 3 future hall of famers. Even if the two teams were dead even, Boston still gets the nod, because they're the current champs and have already proven themselves.

Point differential is also very overrated. At the end of the day, the only thing that really matters is the W.
I love how the bottom of the sign says "are you ready?".....yes, T-Mobile....we've been ready for about 3 years actually.
Did you shoot this from your camera phone?

He could have just stopped there.

I'm sure Curt Schilling would have done a much better job officiating last night. :-\

I do agree that the calls were mostly in favor of the Celtics. But when you combine the facts that the Lakers were not driving hard to the lane, they were in Boston, and the Celtics had so much momentum going, this is to be expected. The Lakers just need to STFU and come to play in game 3, instead of being so lackadaisical and feeling sorry themselves.
It really could have gone either way. On one hand, Thompson was in complete control during the second round. On the other hand, none of his blows were devastating enough to really call for a stoppage. After the dozens of blows to the head, Kimbo popped back up, basically unscathed. I think the ref made the right decision.

Now, whether or not the stoppage at the end was legitimate is another story. Personally, I think that Thompson was going down, but the ref should have waited another 10 seconds. There are a few reasons why I think the match was called so quickly: #1 Thompson's safety was rightfully called into question, #2 Too much gore = not good for CBS, #3 If you look at the big picture, the ref's own job security depends on Kimbo winning, as Kimbo's success makes the brand more popular.
Ron: Try 16 for Boston...going on 17.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation.

And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
