Cold Stove - Free Agents Still on the table
2018 should be the year of letting the kids play. Why not see what they can do? Why saddle yourself with an aging free agent and a big payroll when only 15-20k come out to games at times?

Started watching The Magicians on Netflix. Pretty entertaining and surprising that they allowed so much language on basic cable (SyFy).

2018 MLB Draft
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 9, 2018 -> 11:51 AM) I was watching MLB Network yesterday and this is something that blew my mind. The SEC is a really good baseball conference, a couple of historic programs, but Frank Thomas is their only HOFer. If he hadn't done steroids, Palmeiro would have been in there.

President Donald Trump: The Thread
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 9, 2018 -> 09:41 AM) Mexico is paying for the wall. Believe me. I am sure they are just waiting for them to wire the money. Rite Aid won't let them because they believe that Trump is a Nigerian prince.

Bright was good. It has potential, but I didn't see the need to use the F word in every other sentence. I'm not a prude, but it seemed really out of place.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi *SPOILERS* Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 2, 2018 -> 10:19 AM) They only referred to it as "Death star technology", so similar design. Much smaller. "It'll crack it open like an egg!" *BOOM* *clank* *small truck sized hole*

Star Wars: The Last Jedi *SPOILERS* Thread
I'm wondering how a cannon from a Death Star that destroyed an entire planet in IV and Rogue One, barely cut a 6 foot hole in a door.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi *SPOILERS* Thread
Finally saw the movie. It makes everything in Episode 7 almost pointless. I enjoyed it as a Star Wars film, but it felt like they destroyed the story line of 7 just so they can come up with a better story line for 9.

2017 Catch All thread
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 24, 2017 -> 06:18 PM) It makes me so sad my kids won’t experience a movie store. Even as a adult in the west loop I loved taking my dog there and walking around. We go to Family Video sometimes. It's a nice thing if you want to get multiple movies at one time. They do game rentals as well.

President Donald Trump: The Thread
QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 26, 2017 -> 01:15 AM) Greg. People arent going to verbally attack you for saying Merry Christmas. More likely the person who is offended will remain silent and politely say it back. You call it the "PC" police, but again, isnt it really just people informing you that maybe you should be aware of what "other" people feel like. How is it even possible to say that there is a "war" on Christmas, when Santa is still at malls, when the Daley Center has a 'Christmas" tree, it has a Christkindelmarket (spelling and there is actually was a second one near Wrigley this year). The idea that there ever was a "war on Christmas" is at best disingenuous and at worst its just a cover for blatantly trying to attack minority religions. Next time when you think about the idea that the majority religion in America is under attack, imagine for a second what it may be like to be a "minority" religion. I will say that one day it would be nice to live in a county where you could say "Happy whateverthef*** you believe in" and not worry that either party would be offended. My experience is that you get more people upset these days if you DON'T say "Merry Christmas." They're expecting a "War" and are hyper-sensitive to anything that seems to even slightly go against their personal preferences.

Disney Buys 21st Century Fox
QUOTE (G&T @ Dec 17, 2017 -> 02:09 PM) They edited the actual original film for the special editions. My understanding is that there are no copies of the original film. Although I guess they could just digitally remove all the new stuff. There are digital laserdisc copies out there that could be used. Plus, undoing could be done.

Disney Buys 21st Century Fox
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 14, 2017 -> 12:37 PM) An X Man(probabaly wolverine) or two will appear in Avengers 4. X-Men will be completely rebooted, and Fantastic Four will be immediately implemented because of their connections to Avengers Also, Disney is gonna start pumping out Star Wars boxed sets like crazy. They just acquired Star Wars - A New Hope. that was the final piece they were missing Original, pre-Lucas editing copies?

For me, it's a chance to see a Secret Wars movie with Fantastic Four/Spider-Man Symbiote (I know, Sony)/X-Men.
