Official Recruiting Thread II
Looks like by most new rankings, that Chicago as the #1 and #2 player in the nation in Okafor and Alexander. Cliff is fun to watch play. Too bad be is only 6'9 and done growing. Still plays like he is 7 feet though.

This Is The End is funny but goes on a little long. Seems to be a trend that comedies are going 2 hours now.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 12, 2013 -> 08:37 AM) Hm. Got Netflix back obviously because of Arrested Development. This morning while at the gym I fired up House of Cards (again, I love my tablet at the gym for cardio days). I'm quite impressed with episode one. In fact, I can't wait to watch more. Agreed. Like the first episode very much. Haven't gone back yet for whatever reason.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 11, 2013 -> 09:53 PM) This is just beautiful basketball by the Spurs. Crisp passing, ball movement, every player on the floor a threat from deep other Duncan. Odd to see Spurs in transition so much more then Miami.

Jays @ Sox
Can't touch your heat, so speed up his swing with a high slider.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 11, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) turning into a rout. Heat are too explosive. They are 4 minutes from a 16-2 run. But they do look like crap outside of Miller.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jun 11, 2013 -> 04:59 PM) The reviews I have seen have been pretty mixed but I think everything Snyder has directed has been no fun and boring (except for the Dawn of the Dead remake) including 300 so no surprise to me. Ding!

2013 MLB Catch-All thread
QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 10, 2013 -> 08:31 PM) gotta love MLB umps. Joyce leads off game with HR against Lackey. 2 outs no one on in the bot of 6 and Joyce gets drilled by Lackey. Of course the umpire gives a warning to both teams. So for tonight Lackey got a free pass. I understand Lackey has gone thru some personal stuff recently, but what a tool he was last night. Totally uncalled for. Fine or suspend him.

2013 Cubs catch all thread
QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2013 -> 07:53 PM) Javier Baez going nuts of late, 3 homers already today. IMO, he's going to be used to acquire a #1 or 2 starting pitcher. If I'm the Cubs, maybe I'm trading Castro instead.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jun 10, 2013 -> 02:44 PM) Don't. Watched it last weekend. The non-baseball scenes try to be serious, and then all the baseball scenes are about as realistic as the hockey scenes were in Mighty Ducks. Keep The Adventures of District 5 out of this. Yes, Trouble With the Curve is brutal

2012 Tennis Thread
QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jun 10, 2013 -> 07:09 AM) What a crap answer, clay gives grinders like Nadal an advantage because the ball isn't as fast on that surface and how it allows you to have more range. The US and Australian open play more towards guys like Djokovic because it is a much faster surface and they are always going for line drive hits down the lines. Thanks for calling my answer crap and than giving the same answer with different words.

Can't blame Emery. You have a new coach and a guy who has a lot to prove no shows OTA's. No brainer.

2013 TV Thread
Since I am waiting for Netflix to add the final season of Fringe, I'm going to go back to my HBOGO app and try GOT again. I watched the first 5 episodes about a year and a half ago and just had trouble following some things and was already full of shows, so gave up. My viewing is light now so may as well give it another shot since the acclaim has been so loud for this season. So Sally Draper is so growing up to be a stripper, right? Daddy issues, much?

2012 Tennis Thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 9, 2013 -> 09:29 PM) So why exactly is Nadal so good on clay? Or Federer on grass? I don't really get the specifics as to why certain players play better on certain surfaces. Why do some batters hit other pitchers better? You move and slide more on clay, the ball bounces different, it's just different and other players use that to their advantage.

Nadal cruises to the French Title. Not interested in Ferrer. Too bad the Djok match wasn't the final. Serena dominated the women's again. She's a freak athlete but I can't stand her. Just unlikable to me.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 9, 2013 -> 10:51 AM) No one cares about network TV anymore. True, but it's still the best way to get exposure for now. It's not like NBCSN is ESPN or TNT, yet.
