‘Mafia III’ Review: Must-See Details & Screenshots

0

Mafia III

The first two Mafia games were steeped in prototypical Sicilain mob culture ripped off from the likes of The Godfather, Casino and GoodFellas. With Mafia III, developer Hangar 13 takes a drastically different path, shifting the setting to a New Orleans-like city in 1968, with a black Vietnam vet as its protagonist. La Cosa Nostra is still pulling the puppet strings, but your task is to gather a loosely-knit band of criminal elements of various racial backgrounds to undermine and overthrow the reigning mob. In the sprawling, culturally rich open world of the game, organized crime is colorblind, and it’s your task to use the upheaval and mayhem of the era to your advantage.

Game: Mafia III
Consoles: Xbox One (reviewed), PS4, PC
Publisher: 2K Games
Developer: Hangar 13
Release Date: October 7

Fresh back from a tour in ‘Nam, antihero Lincoln Clay is the self-styled would-be king of the fictional New Bordeaux. Blaming Italian mobsters for oppressing his family and stature, he sets off on his own, Scarface style, to scrap his way to the top. You help Lincoln pull off the takedown by infiltrating and ripping away control of various rackets from con artists, thugs and bruisers. You convince many of them to work for you, appointing underbosses to do your dirty work and divide up the spoils, while paying you the tribute you demand. As you get the money flowing, your profile rises, making you the target of law enforcement and rival gangsters, many of whom can be bought off or fought off. You’re locked with rivals in a continuous arms race for territory, weaponry and allies in high and low places.

Well-acted cut scenes help sell the drama, which is crucial for a single-player focused game that demands your attention and care to the ongoing narrative in order to keep you coming back for the next mission. Creative, varied gameplay elements keep things unpredictable, allowing you to flex your muscles in firefights, heists, escort missions, driving and brutally explosive shows of force that rival blowout set pieces from the best mob flicks. As has always been the case with the series, there is more than a touch of influence from its 2K cousin, Grand Theft Auto. While the game can’t quite hang toe-to-toe with Grand Theft Auto V in any aspect, it’s more than an adequate time killer until the next chapter of that famed saga arrives. It’s easy to lose yourself in the rhythms of the mean streets of New Bordeaux.

The most memorable aspect of Mafia III is its obsessive attention to period detail. The clothing, dialogue, cars and especially the soundtrack — filled with 100 songs from the likes of the Beach Boys, the Rolling Stones and James Brown — make the game feel like a time machine voyage to 1968. The open-world feel plays into the sense of time and place, helping you share in the exuberant sense of growing power as Lincoln maneuvers his forces to seize control of the underworld, block by block. You also feel the stress of commanding a criminal empire, with bickering underlings scheming against one another, and you. Every choice you make comes with the lingering sting of second-guessing, with every opportunity taken haunted with one missed.

With its time and setting as its greatest advantage in carving out a place in the open world crime genre, Mafia III is sometimes such a large and dizzying experience that it’s intimidating. You have to commit to the intricacies of mobster middle management to find the feel of what it takes to succeed, and when you try to go too big too soon, outside forces have a way of putting you back in your place with frustrating decisiveness. Nothing is handed to you in New Bordeaux, and it takes every bit of moxie and measured calculation to move up in the world. The need to build up large reserves of cash makes the experience feel a little grind-heavy at times, but the thrill of pulling off a well-executed takedown after putting in the necessary work to build up to that point is a thrill that’s rarely matched in every game. There is no getting rich quick in Mafia III, but its joys come in the satisfaction of building your empire and hiding the bodies with style and a steady, unquenchable force of will.

Mafia III Reviews Around The Web:

“This narrative is framed like a documentary through high-end, convincing cutscenes.” –PC Gamer

“More than just a crime spree.” –IGN

“An open-world crime game meant to feel like stepping into the late ’60s, complete with a ridiculously expansive licensed soundtrack of period-appropriate music.” –Digital Trends

Is This Letter From OSU The Most Bullsh*t PC Move You’ve Ever Seen In Your Life?

0
0

Yes. The answer is yes, Eric, this is the most bullshit PC move I’ve ever seen in my life. Earlier this week, we brought you the story of something pretty similar, where a UC Merced sent out instructions forbidding students involved in Greek life from using the word “Greek” in their recruitments.  Unfortunately for the state planet Earth’s grip on reality, apparently these type of language bans (??) are becoming a common occurrence. I take you to Oregon State University, the school best known for being the JV version of the University of Oregon, where apparently they word ‘house’ (no, literally the word house) has become offensive.

In an almost unprecedented move of political correctness and general pussification, the Center for Fraternity and Sorority Life sent out this eye-melting list of best practices. The results are genuinely confusing:

osu frat

A lot to take in here. For example, OSU is arguing that the inclusion of the letters ‘ERNITY’ makes the word ‘frat’ less offensive. I mean, if that is the definition of over-doing something, I don’t know what is. OSU is like that dude who calls every girl ‘love’ or ‘babe’ or whatever. Dude, you’re not being polite or sweet — y0u’re being a bitch. I know if I lived in Oregon and was deciding between these two schools, this would easily be enough to sway my vote.

I know I can be a little cynical, but in all seriousness, this really is taking it too far. Maybe if you want to ban the phrases ‘hazing’ or ‘hell week’, OKAY, I can see it. But the word house? Greek life? Boys?! Girls?!?!?! Dorms!!!!??!? They ARE dorms. Life is short — why spend the extra second saying residence hall when you can just say dorm instead.

The world is rotting from within. 2017 is gonna be a hell of a year.

Watch Baby Whale Save Momma Whale From Being Stranded Because Nature Is Dope

Nature man ya know. Nothing to reinforce the power of love and family like a baby whale pushing her Momma off and sand bar and into safety.

The footage shows the pair swimming in shallow water off North Stradbroke Island in Queensland before the adult became stuck. The baby whale, which is apparently called a calf (I learned something today!), could be seen nudging her distressed mother, who was unsuccessfully trying to splash her tail trying to free herself.

Two Burglars Pick House Of 300-Pound Notorious Sex Predator To Rob, Things Go South (Literally) Fast

harry-harrington-burglar

According to the much vaunted news website Quizai.com, two burglars named Garfield Morgan and Kim Gorton picked the worst possible house to rob. They chose the home of Harry Harrington (photo above). Who is Harry Harrington, you might ask? Here’s a pretty quick bio on him:

Harry Harrington is 6’7″ and weighs over 300lbs. It’s pure muscle. He’s a notorious gay s*x predator who has served time in jail for numerous sexual assaults. An aggressive and predatory offender, he’s not the kind of man you want to annoy [source].

Here is a photo of Harry.

harry-harrington

Unfortunately, as Garfield and Kim soon learned, trying to rob someone of their possessions is pretty annoying. So like a scene out of a twisted, more-adult, gay version of Don’t Breathe, Harry aka “The Wolfman” overpowered them and tied them up. Obviously a notorious sex predator like Harry isn’t going to be satisfied with just trying up his prey, so he allegedly sodomized the two for a period of five days.

Judging from their faces below, though, those five days might as well have been a lifetime. Apparently Garfield didn’t always have that lazy eye.

b7cc8d5b-2ee5-464c-9c00-08264ae164e3_750x469

Things probably would have gone a lot worse for the hapless burglars if a neighbor of Harry’s hadn’t heard the loud screams of Garfield and Kim. When police arrived at the scene, they arrested Harry, and dragged him off to jail for two counts of false imprisonment and sexual assault.

I’m sure these two burglars thought that the worst thing that could have happened to them is some pesky kid sets up a bunch of traps and gives them a couple of stubbed toes and minor burns. No way did they expect to have their anal virginity taken by the largest homosexual sex predator known to man. That might make them rethink their whole life of crime, right?

Now that I’m done writing this, I really hope that you all know that this  completely ridiculous story sounds about as fake as anything I’ve ever read. But that being said, this is one of those articles that’s going to go viral, so in the interest of page views I wanted to publish it. Harry Harrington? Is that even a real name? No f*cking way it is.

Also, how is this story trending on Facebook? Facebook! Get it together Zuckerberg. Your computer algorithms are broken.

Westworld Episode 2 Dropped Early So You Can Spend Your Friday At Work Watching It

via HBO

The second episode of HBO’s new drama Westworld dropped a couple days early, so you can watch Westworld episode 2 right now (!) on HBO Now, HBO Go, and HBO On Demand. Developed by Jonathan Nolan (Christopher Nolan’s brother) and Lisa Joy, Westworld is based on the 1973 film of the same name, which was written and directed by Michael Crichton. John Nolan serves as executive producer along with Joy, J. J. Abrams and Bryan Burk with Nolan directing the pilot. HBO is hoping Westworld will be their next massive hit after Game Of Thrones ends. Initial reviews for the series are incredibly positive, with Rotten Tomatoes saying “With an impressive level of quality that honors its source material, the brilliantly addictive Westworld balances intelligent, enthralling drama against outright insanity.”

Described as “a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin,” the series tells the story of a futuristic theme park called Westworld. The Westworld synopsis reads:

Westworld isn’t your typical amusement park. Intended for rich vacationers, the futuristic park — which is looked after by robotic “hosts” — allows its visitors to live out their fantasies through artificial consciousness. No matter how illicit the fantasy may be, there are no consequences for the park’s guests, allowing for any wish to be indulged. “Westworld” — which is based on the 1973 Michael Crichton movie of the same name — features an all-star cast that includes Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins and Golden Globe winner Ed Harris.

HBO’s Westworld season premiere was amazing, and the show looks like it’s shaping up to be the next great television phenomenon, so make sure you keep up and find out how to stream the premiere episode online below!

Westworld HBO Reviews

Rotten Tomatoes: “With an impressive level of quality that honors its source material, the brilliantly addictive Westworld balances intelligent, enthralling drama against outright insanity.”

The Playlist: “‘Westworld’ is a deeply textured sci-fi series that offers the thesis that the greatest monsters humanity may face, are the ones we make in our likeness.”

Uproxx: “This is an addictive experience in which the most compelling questions have less to do with the narrative than the meaning of existence.”

TV Line: “Smart and emotional, gorgeously shot and (mostly) beautifully acted, this A.I. drama computes.”

IGN: “From its standout cast to its excellent visuals to one hell of a hummable score by the great Ramin Djawadi, this is top-notch television in every respect.”

Collider: “Everything is contained, intimate, and carefully crafted, and fans of Crichton will immediately feel the familiarity with his most famous stories’ themes: what overly-confident humans create quickly spirals out beyond our control.”

UFC’s Donald Cerrone Says McGregor Acts ‘Like A Scared Little Kid’ & We Can Smell His Jealousy From Here

0

I’m biased. I’m a big Conor McGregor guy. He’s the best at what he does, but even more so, he’s the best at selling his product. McGregor wouldn’t be as famous, or rich, if he were to keep quiet. Being loud and bombastic is his thing, and he’s reaped the benefits. Remember Muhammad Ali? Of course you do. He talked better shit than any athlete in history, and how’d that work out for him?

That’s why Donald Cerrone bitching about Conor McGregor’s persona is an absolute steaming pile of cow dung (shout out to everyone who caught the Liar Liar reference). It reeks of jealousy.

Appearing on Boomer and Carton , Cerrone said that the UFC “has sugar coated” McGregor, continuing:

“Vocally he writes checks his ass can’t check. You rise fast, you fall fast.”

Then, when asked if could at least appreciate the attention McGregor brings to the sport, Cerrone said:

“No, everybody dislikes the kid. We were sitting at the MSG press conference and he was 20 minutes late. We had to be there on time – he’s 20 minutes late. It’s not the Conor show bro.

Oh, but they (the UFC) protect him. He’s very protected. He doesn’t stand in line with the rest of us. They gotta take him away because we’ll just beat his ass. I’d beat his ass up and down the mat.”

What do you mean you’d ‘beat his ass’ Cerrone? If you mean by hitting him outside of the octagon and getting charged with assault and being thrown in jail, then sure, dude, you could probably beat his ass. But the world isn’t a giant UFC ring, DONALD. You can’t just going beating peoples ass whereever you want. The fact is, whether you like it or not, is that McGregor is 20-3 during his MMA career, and when the fight is inside an octagon, he wins. So you can talk about ‘beating his ass’ in the back of a press conference all you want, but if it’s in the Octagon, there’s a more than solid chance McGregor gives you a whooping.

However Cerrone,  scorned ex-girlfriend sounding dude that he is, continued his bitching when speaking to Sports Illustrated:

“It’s all an act, a big show. We couldn’t hear what he was saying (at the press conference), he was just rambling and we were behind the speaker.

I just tune him out, because behind the scenes he is like a scared little kid. He hides from us. When they line us all up they take Conor and put him in another room because he can’t be around other fighters because we don’t play that shit. (He is disliked) by all. By all. He’s not one of the fellas, he’s not a good dude. But he’s done a good job of promoting the sport and a good job making money so I can’t hate him for that.”

Cerrone sounds like the UFC version of Odell Beckham — a whiny little bitch. McGregor is a better showman, a better fighter, more famous, and much richer. Get over it dude, and be better at your job. If you could trade places with Notorious you would and you know it.

Rolling Stones New Album: Full Story & Must-See Details

Rolling Stones New Album

World-renowned rock band The Rolling Stones announced today that they will release a new album entitled: Blue & Lonesome, which will hit stores December 2nd, just in time for the holidays. This will be the stones’ first album in over ten years, and they will cap off this return by stepping into the heartache of the blues.

Who are the Rolling Stones?

They are a collective of rebellious rock ‘n’ roll stars, who burst onto the scene in the early 1960s and have remained ever since a seemingly permanent fixture in pop culture. When other rock groups hung up their boots, put away their guitars and drum sets for good, The Rolling Stones didn’t go anyway and showed the world that they cannot be stopped even in old age. For decades, the stones has given shelter to the fans looking for the warmth of consistently high-quality rock music.

What happened?

Early Thursday morning, The Rolling Stones sent out a tweet with their signature tongue and lips symbol, this time decked out in blue with a red and purple fade towards the upper right corner. At the upper left hand corner of the image, there is the title of the forthcoming album written in white: Blues & Lonesome – The Rolling Stone’s first album since 2005.

Rolling Stones member Ron Wood would hit at an upcoming blues album as early as April of this year. “We went in to cut some new songs, which we did. But we got on a blues streak,” he told Associated Press. “They are extremely great cover versions of Howlin’ Wolf and Little Walter, among other blues people. But they really sound authentic.” Both tracks have since been confirmed for Blues & Lonesome.

In an interview for Rolling Stone magazine in September, lead guitarist Keith Richards said he had been in a London studio recording songs for an upcoming album with lightning-fast precision. He informed the magazine that this record would contain “a lot of Chicago blues.”

On September 28, Mick Jagger took to Twitter, posting a photo of harmonicas, hinting at a blues concept album to his followers.

Earlier this month, The Rolling Stones posted a teaser to Youtube, giving up-close images of the equipment in the studio, first showing the name and location of the studio written on a white board: British Grove Studios and Chiswick, London written in bold red marker.  The camera then directs us to a white sign reading “Mick Jagger” in red print surrounded by guitars hanging from a rack, then the camera shifts to part of a “Keith Richards” sign as we can hear laughter, someone tap on a drum set and strum on a guitar string as a voice counts on in the background. The video ends with the bright blue logo of the album.

The very next day, this young-at-heart rock group released another youtube video, which showed them performing in their West London studio with a heavy emphasis on the harmonica sound – a lasting trademark of blues music.

Then earlier today, The Rolling Stones made their official announcement for the album and released the names for the 12 featured tracks. Each will be covers on old blues singles written, some written as early as 1955, while the most recent song of the bunch dates back to 1971.

Co-producer Don Was recalled, in an interview with French publication Le Gigaro, that the musicians recorded the album in a peculiar fashion, singing and playing their instruments in a circle lined with microphones, while completing the entire album in an astonishingly short time span of three days. “The record sounds very crude, very authentic,” he said. “It captures the essence of what they are.”

Blues & Lonesome is sure to be an album to look out for this December. The Rolling Stones have been known to consistently produce great work even while in wrinkles. After over 50 years of entertaining fans and selling out arenas, The Rolling Stones are still as hot as ever, and will show the world that these old-time rockers are still kicking with great music.


WATCH: Larry The Cable Guy Snapped A Man’s Arm In An Arm Wrestling Match

TMZ

Larry the Cable Guy, who’s starred in classics such as Witless Protection and Jingle All the Way 2, is a huge University of Nebraska fan. Larry is from Pawnee City, Nebraska, and he decided to go to last weekend’s football game in Lincoln. The Cornhuskers defeated the University of Illinois 31-16, but the real loser of the day was the dude who got his arm snapped by Larry in an arm wrestling match.

GEWWW!! Such a disgusting sound. That’s one way to Git-R-Done and pick up an arm wrestling victory. Just use your redneck superhero strength to snap your opponent’s arm like a carrot. TMZ is reporting that the loser in this contest was an Army vet named John, who thought that it’d be a good idea to challenge Larry to an arm wrestling match. Talk about being careful what you wish for.

John being a military man makes a lot of sense considering how well he took that gruesome injury. I’ve had much worse reactions than that after stubbing my toe. According to TMZ, John broke his humerus bone and underwent surgery. Hopefully, he has a fast recovery and retires from challenging comedians to middle school cafeteria games. I’ve heard Amy Schumer is a goddamn monster at bloody knuckles.

Hurricane Matthew Memes

You have to respect America’s ability to turn anything, even a literal force of nature, into a meme. Despite the potential destruction and terror Hurricane Matthew may bring this weekend, that has not stopped brave citizens from churning out the dankest memes imaginable. Just our great postal service, neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night will stop us from making memes goddammit.

Whether it be Trump, Harambe or the Miami Dolphins, Hurricane Matthew memes have covered a wide range of topics. Now, while these memes are hilarious, Hurricane Matthew itself is still no joke. Anyone in the area should hopefully be somewhere safe now, using these memes to distract yourself from the harsh realities of the hurricane.

Before your internet and power access gets shut off by the massive storm, make sure that you check out the greatest Hurricane Matthew memes thus far.

Peter Griffin Comic Con Interview

Comic Con is right down the street from COED Media Group HQ, so of course we decided to cut work yesterday and check out the scene. There was a ton of stuff to see at the Javits Center, but probably our favorite character was seeing none other than Peter Griffin in the crowd.

We took a couple of minutes of his time to talk about his family, the cost of attending Comic Con, and the welcome return of Tom Brady to the New England Patriots. Truthfully we had forgotten the history of these two, but we were still surprised to hear these words coming from a die-hard Pats fan.

Jared Cook Got A Very Unwanted Surprise With His Buffalo Wild Wings Order

Green Bay Packers tight end Jared Cook recently went to a Buffalo Wild Wings to get his grub on. BWW seemed like a solid choice, as usually the wings are tasty and the beers are cold. Unfortunately for Jared, that would not be the case on this particular occasion. The 29-year-old ended up getting way more than he bargained for with his lemon pepper wings.

Jesus Christ, that’s nasty. That chicken’s cold, dark eyes will haunt my dreams for years to come. When Jared asked them what the hell was going on, this is the response he got.

Gimme a goddamn break, B-Dubs. I don’t want to hear this lame ass fresh chicken excuse. Jared ordered chicken WINGS, not chicken dome pieces. He should get a free lifetime supply of food and therapy sessions. If coming face to face with the head of a lemon pepper covered Foghorn Leghorn isn’t some traumatizing shit, then I don’t know what is.

UW-Madison Students Selling “All Whites Are Racist” Hoodies

all-white-people-are-racist-hoodie

According to one source, some University of Wisconsin-Madison students are trying to sell a couple of different hoodies with varying aggressive messaging written on them, one of which reads “All White People Are Racist.”

The owner of the store is Eneale Pickett, a first wave poet who has a store on Etsy. Eneale is also a sophomore at UW-Madison and has been reportedly DM’ing people on Twitter trying to get some attention to his products. Apparently he hasn’t been doing that good a job closing out on sales because as of right now, he’s only sold one “All White People Are Racist” hoodie. As for his explanation as to what it means, read his words:

“Racism has little to do with hatred and mostly to do with who has power,” the page says. “White folk or those who see themselves as white are given said power inherently regardless of socioeconomic class, education etc. This is why white men created race in the first place–to maintain power. Racism gave birth to the idea of race.”

Last time, I checked that wasn’t the definition of racism that I learned in school, but whatever. This guy knows exactly what he’s doing–spreading hate and trying to divide people. I don’t for one second buy into his whole shtick, but whatever.

My only point is this: if I’m a white student at UW-Madison, I’m buying this shirt and wearing it around campus. Taking back the night. That whole thing. But instead, I’m here in NYC and wearing something like is bound to start some sh*t I don’t want to be a part of.

Obviously this guy is hoping that his controversial messaging gets some national attention, so I feel kind of stupid for helping him out, but honestly this is going to be a story whether or not we cover it. His store also has sweatshirts with words like “If I encounter another cop with a GOD COMPLEX I’m going to have to show the world that they are human.”

So yeah, good job Eneale for being a part of the solution.

Also, for all the people who find this article through Facebook or whatever, that’s not a gang sign he’s throwing up, but a UW-Wisconsin sign. Which makes him even more of a fool for bringing his school into the thick of it.

“I ended up not enjoying University of Cincinnati as much as I thought I would. I went to UC for my freshman year of college but ended up transferring to Kent because I was so homesick at Cincinnati. It was a beautiful place where I had fun, but I knew I’d be much happier at Kent. I picked Kent because I knew how good the Journalism program is, and everyone at Kent State says how much they love it and how it’s the best decision they have ever made and they are right! I definitely know I made the right choice, and I am loving it and proud to say I transferred to Kent State.”

“When I was looking at different colleges, I was so nervous. I mean, I was choosing a place to be my life for the next four years! By myself! When my mom and I parked to go to meet a tour group on the A&M campus, we had no clue where we were going. I guess we looked lost because several students at the time stopped and asked us if they could help us find anything. One young man even looked up a map of the campus and then offered to walk with us to our destination so he could show us things along the way. Everyone on the campus was so friendly and actually talked to us, whether they were saying ‘Howdy!’ or just offering help, while at other universities, many students would completely ignore us. There also was student life everywhere we looked. It looked like its own little community, and soon I found myself relaxing and actually enjoying being there. When it came time to leave, I didn’t want to go! I already felt at home. This was not something I found at any other university I visited and even found myself beginning to compare every single one to A&M.”

“Right away, I got the feeling that it was going to be my perfect home away from home. Western is what I like to refer to as a ‘small big school.’ It’s still a large public university with a lot of awesome students, but class sizes are never overwhelmingly big and campus isn’t a complete maze. I love it because I still get that ‘real college experience’ without getting lost in the system. Most people outside of Michigan have never even heard of WMU, and I wish we had some more exposure because we are seriously the best ever. I may be a little biased just because I’m sort of, kind of obsessed with my school, but Western really does have SO much to offer that I just want the whole world to know. Go Broncos!!”

The Daily Show’s Response To The “Watters’ World” Chinatown Segment Is A++

I, like most well-intentioned, educated, properly adjusted people, thought that the latest Watters’ World segment on The O’Reilly Factor was utter bullshit. Human sex offender regisetry Jesse Watters went into Chiantown where he interviewed a bunch of old Chinese people who can’t speak English and peddled racist stereotypes like it was his job. Oh, wait, it is his job.

First, let me just make a point to all the people who don’t think this is racist: why didn’t he go and do this in the hood? Instead of asking some Chinese people if he should bow when he says allow, why didn’t he go to the Bronx and ask black people if he should dap them up when he says hello? Or instead of asking a Chinese street vendor if his watches were ‘hot’, why didn’t he go to Harlem and ask a street vendor there if his product was stolen? Instead of asking a Chinese man if he knows karate (which is a Japanese martial art, by the way), why didn’t he go to Queens and ask a Black man if he knows how to scrap? The answer is because it’s racist, and Watters’ and Fox News only have the balls to provoke the Chinese.

Luckily, most of the people in the world are still good and called out Fox News for their garbage, so it was only a matter of time before The Daily Show had their say.

Their response aired last night, and it’s absolutely f*cking brilliant:

Elon Musk’s Wife Is An Actress On Westworld, Is So Hot She May Actually Be An Android

If you’re like me, you’ve been obsessing over HBO’s new drama Westworld since it premiered. In episode two, we were introduced to the character of Angela, played by the stunning Talulah Riley. Riley has this exotic look about her that very few actresses possess, making her perfect for a role in Westworld. Prior to Westworld, Riley has appeared in films such as Pride & Prejudice, St Trinian’s, The Boat That Rocked, St. Trinian’s 2: The Legend of Fritton’s Gold and Inception (she played the gorgeous woman at the bar).

Riley was born in Hertfordshire, England. She is the only child of Una Riley, founder of a security systems company and a PR company, and Doug Milburn, formerly head of the National Crime Squad. Her father now works as a screenwriter and has written episodes of Silent Witness, Prime Suspect and The Bill. Riley attended Cheltenham Ladies College, Berkhamsted Collegiate School andHaberdashers’ Aske’s School for Girls. While acting in London, she studied for a degree in Natural Sciences at the Open University.

Riley is maybe most famous for being the wife of inventor Elon Musk. Although the two divorced in 2012, they remarried in 2013, and are happily married today.

Although Riley’s role in Westworld seems to be relatively minor, we’re hoping it’s anything but, cause we could watch just her for an entire episode and be satisified.

The 2016 season has been one that hasn’t gone the way that the Arizona Cardinals or San Francisco 49ers would have liked so far. Each team is 1-3 as they go into a Thursday night showdown in Santa Clara. Arizona wasn’t expected to be this bad this season while San Francisco is still rebuilding with a struggling quarterback. The Cardinals may have their own injury issues to deal with as Carson Palmer may not play in this game while the 49ers need better work from Blaine Gabbert. Here is a look at the matchup.

The Cardinals lost 17-13 last week at home to the Los Angeles Rams. Palmer got knocked out of the game last week and it may be Drew Stanton under center for this game. Palmer has passed for 1,150 yards, six touchdowns and five interceptions for the season. It is clear that Larry Fitzgerald has enjoyed the efforts of Palmer this season with 25 catches for 280 yards and three touchdowns while David Johnson has rushed for 300 yards and three touchdowns of his own. The defense hasn’t been great all season long but this is the week where they have to be great on the road against San Francisco.

The 49ers lost their third straight game with a 24-17 loss at home to the Dallas Cowboys. Gabbert has thrown for 728 yards, four touchdowns and four interceptions this season but is only averaging 178.8 yards per game through the air. Jeremy Kerley leads the team with 18 catches for 202 yards and a touchdown. Carlos Hyde is at 299 yards rushing and five touchdowns and is the clear focus point of the offense. Hyde needs a lot of help from Gabbert this week. The defense would like to see Stanton instead of Palmer and could have a big day if they get that wish.

Oklahoma City Thunder Roster 2016-17: Lineup & Predictions

Oklahoma City Thunder Roster 2017

The Oklahoma City Thunder were just one game away from getting to the NBA Finals last season with a 3-1 series lead over the Golden State Warriors. The Thunder couldn’t hang on and would lose the final three games of the series to see their 55-win regular season go up in smoke to a Golden State team that had lost just nine times in the regular season. Now, the new season has arrived and it is a very different look for the Thunder as star forward Kevin Durant has departed to join that Warriors bunch that beat him to end last season. Here is a look at the projected Oklahoma City lineup for the 2016-17 season and a look at how well the team will do this coming year.

Russell Westbrook

Point Guard – 6′ 3″, 187 lbs
2015-16 Stats: 23.5 ppg, 10.4 apg, 7.8 rpg

The 27-year-old is now the undisputed star of this Thunder team. He is going to need all the help he can get in the scoring department however with Durant now out of town but Westbrook will get his 20-23 shots a game now and could end up averaging over 30 points a game before season’s end. He is easily the highest paid player on the team and will need to live up to that.


Victor Oladipo

Shooting Guard – 6′ 4″, 210 lbs
2015-16 Stats: 16.0 ppg, 3.9 apg, 4.8 rpg

If the Thunder wanted to replace Durant with a solid option, they definitely did that with the addition of Oladipo via trade from the Orlando Magic. Oladipo averaged 16 points a game last season and gives Oklahoma City a high-scoring backcourt with Westbrook. He has a few things to improve on going to the Western Conference but could be a 20 point a game scorer.


Kyle Singler

Small Forward – 6’8″, 228 lbs
2015-16 Stats: 3.4 ppg, 0.4 apg, 2.1 rpg

This is the part of the lineup where things could suffer a bit with Durant’s departure. Singler is likely going to end up being the starter and has high expectations. He has starting experience in the past with the Detroit Pistons and won’t be expected to be a huge scorer but must be a key member of this Thunder team for them to be successful.


Ersan Ilyasova

Power Forward – 6’10”, 235 lbs
2015-16 Stats: 10.4 ppg, 1.1 apg, 5.4 rpg

Another player who will need to play better during the 2016-17 season is Ilyasova who comes over from the Magic as well. His 6’10” frame will be down to get a lot of rebounds off of missed shots from Westbrook and Oladipo. There is hope that Ilyasova can average 10-13 points and 6-7 rebounds a game this coming year. If not, he may end up spending a lot of time on the bench.


Steven Adams

Center – 7’0″, 255 lbs
2015-16 Stats: 8.0 ppg, 0.7 apg, 6.7 rpg

Adams is rounding into a solid NBA player as he goes into his fourth season with the Thunder. At seven feet tall, he is a menacing figure in the lane but needs to remain on the court for more than 25 minutes a night and needs to bring up his scoring and rebounding averages in the process. There are choices for coach Billy Donovan if Adams doesn’t live up to his potential.


The Oklahoma City bench is led by Enes Kanter, who will be an ally to Adams when he needs a breather and could easily be on the floor with Adams quite a bit as a scoring option. This is a weakened Thunder team with no Durant but still a team that will be a force to be reckoned with. A 50-55 win season is in the cards again for Oklahoma City.
