Timberwolves getting screwed hard by the refs down the stretch in a big game tonight. Denver not getting called for anything at all in the 4th quarter and some really tough calls going against the Timberwolves.

We just need Donald Trump to save our kids because he would run inside and stop the shooter even if he didn't have a gun on him.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 22, 2018 -> 08:19 AM) Until the other countries catch up, they should just let US/Canada women play a 5 or 7 game series for the gold. Those games are always epic, just as exciting as any men's hockey game. Probably more exciting than the men's tourney this year with no NHL players. Also that winner in the shootout by Lamoureux-Davidson was an absolutely insane move. Too bad she wasn't playing for the men's team in their shootout. And speaking of the men's team, pretty clear they should have tried to get more college kids with talent on that team rather than journeyman playing overseas. The college kids they did have were by far their best players.

That shootout effort by the USA was f***ing pathetic. Great job by the goalie keeping them in it but holy s*** those were pitiful moves put on the Czech goalie.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 15, 2018 -> 10:08 AM) Trump and Gov. Scott are working closely on this shooting. Can someone explain what that bulls*** means? Are they praying together on a 3 way call with Mike Pence? They are discussing how they can blame the shooter's neighbors and classmates for this.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2018 -> 04:48 PM) Not being able to acquire tools of death would help 100%. There is a reason the UK hasnt had a mass shooting in 20 years and we have them almost every week. There were two armed police officers working at the school and they couldnt stop this. Nope, the clear solution is to arm teachers and students and have everyone in America packing. I couldn't imagine anything safer.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2018 -> 04:14 PM) Multiple fatalities. Cant wait to hear about mental health being the issue Just wait for the large numbers of law abiding gun owners to stop these shootings. I'm sure that will start happening any time now.

Maybe someday our government will actually give a f*** about doing something about this rather than being pawns for the NRA. Immigrant kills one person while drunk driving, take to twitter to suggest that immigration has to be dealt with immediately. Weekly school shootings, regular mass shootings, oh well, thoughts and prayers nothing we can do about it.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 01:20 PM) I’ve always liked the Winter games more but I have little interest this time around. I like live sports and it seems like it’s too much of a hassle bc of the time difference. And bc the next two Olympics are in Asia, guess I won’t be caring much until 2024. Or until NHL players are playing. All the stuff going on during prime time is live just FYI. The time difference makes it so the stuff happening in the morning there is happening live at night here. There is a lot of stuff in the middle of the night that is nearly impossible to follow live but they are actually going a good job getting us a lot of live content during normal hours.

Benioff and Weiss to develop a Star Wars series of films as well. Looks like Episode IX will likely be the end of the Skywalker saga (at least for a long time). That is probably the right move, how long can you spend focused on the same family when you have such a fun universe to play with.

I'm incredibly sympathetic to that father but all he is doing is putting his daughters through more pain and grief with his actions there. They don't need to see him taken off in handcuffs.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 1, 2018 -> 12:37 PM) Lebron going to Golden State would suck but I'm not going to worry about it right now. I love watching basketball. Just love it. Such a fun sport...if only I could go to more games in person. Too cheap to buy tickets and no longer work in consulting where I have big expense account haha. Am left to about one game a year. Heck I've enjoyed watching the Bulls this year (when Dunn and Lauri are on the court). I can't say they are enjoyable at all when Jerian Grant plays. I'm starting to hope we can pull of a trade for a New Orleans 1st round pick and than work the Cavs to get the Nets pick. No idea how to do it but Cavs might get desperate enough and maybe we can take on some contracts from Pelicans to facilitate something for them. Probably unrealistic for both to happen but I think we might be able to come up with something interesting to get the Nets pick. What the hell do the Bulls have that the Cavs would be willing to give up for the Nets pick other than Lauri? It is beyond unrealistic.

From the article: "Allswede told Outside the Lines that about seven years ago, an attorney from the university's general counsel's department came to her office to try to reassure her that coaches were taking allegations of sexual violence seriously. Allswede says the attorney told her how Dantonio, the football coach, had dealt with a sexual assault accusation against one of his players: He had the player talk to his mother about what he had done." Are you f***ing kidding me? And the Payne/Appling story is ridiculous too. Classy Izzo didn't punish them at all either.

It'll be interesting to see if Johan Santana and Andruw Jones fall off the ballot, which I have no problem with. Santana and Jones are both significantly better than Vizquel who is inexplicably getting a lot of support.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jan 23, 2018 -> 11:42 AM) Should WR be the #1 target for the Bears in round 1? Or OL, or DB? If they trade down I'd be fine taking a WR in round 1. I really don't like the idea of taking a WR in the top 10 though, particularly since there isn't a truly standout WR in the draft this year.
