Why does extracting Torrents take forever?......

Depends on how many seeds/peers where your getting the torrent from. The more seed to peer the better. You can have a few that throttle upload which slows your download. Also private torrents are a hell of alot quicker then public. Find some good private sites and get registered.

Haha, there is definitely a lot of confusion going on in this thread. Smootsdaddy and Gat are correct though. utorrent is used to download a .torrent file. The time it takes to download depends on a number of things, the most important being the number of seeds, size of the file, and speed of your internet connection.

Generally, if something is going to take days it means that there are not enough people seeding the file. When selecting to a torrent to download, tracker sites will provide the current number of seeders and leechers for a particular torrent. You want to choose something that has a large number of seeders (a seeder is somebody who already has the file downloaded in it's entirety and is uploading it for others). Having a lot of seeds also means that the file is more likely to be a legit copy of whatever it is your downloading.

      Chiefs vs Panthers

      By strato · Posted

      For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
