This Week C9: NFL goes Silverlight, VS 2010 features, new freebies

wow, this is something!
Best TWiC9 evar!
It's got long-time niners, beer tasting, premature optimization joke... who can ask for more!
Amen.
Power to the Niners (and beer)! Welcome to the Mothership, Sven.
C
The new Ajax CDN and System.IO improvements are great!
Drinking on the show. Nice! I especially love Brian's vacant stare as he's drinking.
WOW so none of them can tell which beer they drink by taste? (Ok Sven you are excused - not fair to you)
way back I used to drink a *LOT* of Fosters -- but this was like 1981 and it came in big tin cans that we called "Oil Cans" cause they where just about the size and shape of a quart oil can for a car. as a 19-20 year old back then i coluld down 4 cans in
a night and still keep going... Ah the days of mispent youth in the US Air Force... I had a buddy who made killer "punch" with koolaid, vodka, everclear and moonshine, a dixe cup or two and you did not get out of the chair without help .... like 99.9% pure
booze with a cover of sweet taste to hide it on the way down
That was a fun show to shoot. Dan and Brian should do that from now own during each show. Each week they taste the beer from another country.
Ales, Cream Ales, Lager, Stout.... Yum
now i hope everyone can tell a cream ale from a dark brew
wonder if i can find my old air force buddy and have him make some punch for a show .... </cue in evil laugh>
I loved the “Drinking Brian” stuff. That added a whole layer of craziness to TWoC9. It reminds me of “Blokken”, a quiz on Belgian TV where sometimes a guy dressed as a Viking would walk through the scene, just randomly.
If you start with Belgian beers, you could fill a decade of episodes. I am truly blessed to have been born here. Praise the Lord.
I was recently in Brussels, Belgium. Nice beer country! So far I just drink Chimay though. Agree that Brian added some humor to the whole thing heh. That has to be the emptiest stare I've ever seen; it reminded me of this sentence: "opening up the nothing box".
So, Brian, were you staring out in space and into the camera on purpose? Cuz it was really funny to just see that.
I think he stared out in space. I loved how he was taking a closer look at the camera!
