Bills were down 28-7 and ended up winning 49-31, scoring 35 unanswered in the second half. Really great game, and while Cincinnati is clearly to blame as much as the Bills are due credit, considering they were down 3 scores, on the road, and 1-8, the resiliency they displayed really impressed me.
Bills are actually undefeated against teams with losing records. It's been a really tough schedule but this team isn't terrible.
Raiders got put in their place, and even though KC won, it's starting to look like the AFC West is just weak, rather than that those two teams are back to contending.
And I was glad to see Green Bay demolish Minnesota. Can espn stop talking about the Vikings now? They're just another bad team. Nothing interesting about them. Chilly (and Marvin Lewis) will be gone at the end of the year, if not sooner.

There's a big difference between GNR and Star Wars. GNR had stops and starts, false promises, bitter relationships, and when it finally came out it was without fanfare or expectation. Most of the album had already leaked, and there were several cancelled tours.
If ChiDem dropped in 01-02 without any leaks, then it would be a comparable situation. Fans already knew what they were getting, or at least had heard from media sources about it. Episode I was a mystery beyond the trailers, so people had to go see it to know.

Yeah you can see in the movie that Maul has his sabre on while Obi-Wan's hanging on, then when Obi-Wan makes his jump Maul's sabre is inexplicably off, so that he doesn't slice Obi right in half. Then Obi stabs him and suddenly Maul's is back on. But even that error doesn't really bother me too much - it was just stupid to kill Maul off in the first one when he was such a cool evil character.
What it comes down to, for me, is that the original trilogy were made with the intention of making great films. The prequels were made to sell toys.

I do like the lightsaber battles in the prequels although I don't get excited about Yoda's like some people do. But I will take the Darth Maul fight and the Obi-Wan/Anakin duel in Sith over the original trilogy.
But I'll take the original's dog fights any day of the week. I found all of the prequels' space scenes to just be tiresome.
Anyways, there's always a bigger fish.

Yeah, shame one of us had to lose, but I'm glad it was you hahaha.

I just can't get over how ridiculously cluttered and cartoonish everything in the prequels is, or how shitty the dialogue is in them.
