I definitely prefer my 5DmkII to the 50D but if I had to choose between the 5Dc and the 50D I might lean toward the 50D as it seems to be built a bit better and functions a lot faster.

So I dragged the 5Dc I picked up Friday with me to grab some lunch and took some shots detailing my great adventure. Headed to Times Square to check out the activity and take pictures of the funny looking people. Hanging out under the Yahoo sign I took in the sights. Then I was harassed by a goofy guy giving me chocolate so I wandered over to the crowd. Dove was having a Teach Women to Like Football party with A-List Celeb, 21 Jump Street's own, Holly Robinson Peete. She flapped her wings for a while and talked about how much she loves Football. So I got bored with her and hit a street vendor for a grass fed Angus burger on a Brioche Roll from Frites & Meats which is evidently slated for next season's The Great Food Truck Race. Great burgers and fries right outside of the office. I could get used to this. Overall a pretty nice lunch.

Great stuff Jin.

So the Brent and Deepak game still has some mystery, and Nate and Vicki still have some points to score to determine winner. Looks like the rest are fairly well settled. Now it comes down to overall high score between Shelly, Nate, Brent, Brian and me to see who leads the league after week one.

You got beat by Brent, and he played one player that was out with an injury. It is certainly possible. At least you didn't take Raffy's beat down.

I would worry more about his shoulder than too much Foster. Way too much offense in Houston to worry.

You can pick up and drop players each week from the waiver wire. Go to the players tab and you can pick a new player. Waivers all go through on Wednesday I guess and then you will find out if you got the player or if someone that is higher on the waiver list picked your player up. Right now the Waiver list is reverse draft order.

Dinny beat me to start me at 0-1 last season but I am feeling okay with the lead I have built up on him now.

Yeah, it looks like you might start your Fantasy Football career by destroying our returning champ. I knew Arian Foster was someone that I wanted.

I'm sure if you look hard enough there is a flower in there somewhere.

Took some pics at the World Trade Center Light Memorial tonight.

Some more from my boring ass flowers because I have nothing interesting to shoot series.

Huge Fan. The last 30 seconds of the season opener was insane. I do not know where they are going to go with this now.

I have shot two or three short videos just so I could try out iMovie. They did not take up much space but were each only 10-20 seconds long. Works well but I rarely find myself in a situation where I think something needs to be recorded. Dinny, I will talk to my phone about snickering at your 16GB model when we are in social situations.

Dinny, I have the Defender case for the iPhone also.

I have the Pixelskin HD here that I never took out of the box. Evidently Speck made a special version with an A at the end of the serial for Apple freebies and it is not up to the standard of the commercial one that a lot of people liked. Kind of stiff and really hard to press the sleep button from what I have read.

I updated but I do not really see much reason to as the game center is cheesy and the HDR photo capabilities suck.

What I wonder is, as they said the DSP had to be changed, how all the people that bought it after hearing it at CanJam will react if the finished product (sound) is different. I would assume changing the DSP will change the sound.

Looks like Matt Macbeth, the DSP guy, abandoned the project. They put it up on Facebook in a kind of strange post today.

yes.

Unfortunately, you will find that those projections are rarely all that accurate. I was in that position, projected to beat Dinny soundly first game last year, when we were at DanJam, and he destroyed my team.

You are playing Raffy and you are a 18 point favorite over our returning champ. Vicki is a 5 point favorite over Nate.

You look at the My Team tab and it will tell you who your players are playing and what time they are playing. You also need to watch for injuries as some players will be game time decisions over the course of the season. Injuries are really the only thing that will keep most players out of the lineup unless you drafted some second/third string people. You will also see projected points for each of your players. This is the projected scoring that the wizards at ESPN have posted for each player. They are often far from accurate but can help you in deciding who to play. You can also look at the scoreboard tab to see the projected spread for your game this week. You are a 5 point favorite over Nate right now. If they get injured or taken out you are stuck with them. That is why picking a player that won't be benched and hoping that they make it through the game without injuries is what you need. Some of it comes down to luck, some to research/planning.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, the season starts this week with a Thursday night game between New Orleans and Minnesota. You need to have any players on those teams in or on the bench before the game starts.

I actually got a viewer for my Mac that let's me drag the pic to my dock for exit data.
