Our playoffs start Thurs. We are #1 seed and will be missing 3 of our good hitters. Ugh.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 13, 2013 -> 02:09 PM) Cena having surgery on his elbow after SS looks like Bryan or RKO winning by cashing in Money in the Bank briefcase scenario. I started predicting last week that Orton cashes in on either one and becomes Vince's new corporate champion. Suited Orton returns.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 13, 2013 -> 08:43 AM) True Blood is terrible. I mean, it's been terrible for a while, but that last episode (half being devoted to the funeral of a secondary character) was truly god-awful. It seems like the season finale isn't much to be excited about either. I think i'm finally done. Deleted off DVR today. I'll just google Jessica.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 05:30 PM) Ok longish story short my iPad got stolen (32 GB iPad 2 wi-fi) and we'll I'd gotten really attached to it and need to replace it with an iPad mini. Should I buy one now or wait for the 4th generation version coming out probably next month? Can't you track where your iPad is when stolen?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 02:18 PM) Anybody know of "C" leagues (or not super competitive leagues) for the fall in the north/northwest suburbs? I play in Libertyville. They do a league every day so some days are more competitive than others but no A, B, or C type leagues.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 03:30 PM) Thats probably something someone did for him during the visit. Recruits do that s*** all the time. What's next? Him standing in the locker room? That's what I was told it was. These kids like to tease fans on twitter all the time.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 11:32 AM) That shouldn't change someone being a life-long fan of a team. Must not be a big fan to begin with. If you're die-hard, nothing would change it. I guess I'm a bad example since Michigan and SIU never play. I can pull for both hard.

That episode had everything you'd want from Breaking Bad. Acting, tension, cinematography, twists. Great stuff.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 09:42 AM) I have a buddy who did the same thing - was an Illini fan for his entire childhood, decided to go to Indiana and is now a big Hoosiers fan. I don't get how you can switch allegiances so easily. I never blamed Gordon, he's just a kid. I did think everyone else involved was incredibly shady though, including Sampson. IIRC he switched at basically the last possible second, making it nearly impossibly for Weber to find someone else decent. The funniest part about the whole saga of Sampson was Indiana fans being so upset that their perfect reputation had been destroyed. It's like they forgot about the coach they had that choked players but never got reprimanded for it. "That's just tough love! He's getting those boys to play! We've won 5 championships!" I think it is easy to change college allegiances if you pay thousands of dollars to attend a certain place.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 11, 2013 -> 09:32 AM) Duke recruits well-educated 5-Stars. All three are 5-Stars and well-educated kids from good families. Why is it that surprising? Jabari, Jahlil, and Mathews are different types of players than Collins and Scheyer.

If Jahlil goes to Duke, you can bet Jabari will stay 2 years. Duke also in on Charles Mathews from St. Rita now. WTF

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 10, 2013 -> 12:28 PM) Really unimpressed by Michael c wrights bears coverage for ESPNCHICAGO. Guy is boring especially on twitter. They all pretty much tweet the same thing. Zaidman is the only one who communicates with followers but he is sort of a Bears kiss ass.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2013 -> 10:57 AM) Almost every guy on the challenge is on steroids, which explains the outburst of anger. Wes is small compared to previous year. Netflix stream put up last years Breaking Bad episodes. Watching the last few to prepare for tomorrow.
