May not have loved him as a baseball player, but he never made excuses and seemed to be a good guy. Sometimes I wonder if a guy like that takes the boos too hard.

So far enjoying the galaxy 5. Big improvement on speed and function over the 3.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 24, 2014 -> 04:45 PM) They worked fine for me, but I am just using a cheap $5 set of headphones. Yeah this turned out to be user error. The headphone jack requires more pressure than other ones, so I was annoyed and jammed it in, then it worked lol.

yeah i think im going to try one of these spigen cases lol.

Well Im an idiot and i guess the headphone jack is really tight so you actually have to push it hard to make it click in. (I could have made that more explicit but whatever.) I bought a fancy case, not sure how I feel about it. Its bulkier, probably a few mms around, but also kind of comforting that it should get ruined in water/etc. Got 14 days to return no cost, so well see.

My galaxy 3 stopped charging so had to get a new phone. Went with the 5. Does anyone else have problems with the headphones not being recognized? I bought a case, think im going to return it because its impossible to open the charger latch when its in it, who designs this nonsense.

I dont mind a risk on Moore at all.

Everyone else has one? Almost burnt a hole through a wood table with a hookah charcoal, good times.

Goodell is earning his $44mil because people are attacking him not the owners. And then if it ever gets too bad, they have a sacrificial lamb, get a new figurehead and the mob never goes after the owners.

Shack, I wouldnt waste your time. Im pretty sure your point was that each side thinks their correct and is dismissive of the other side. So before we just dismiss one side or the other, we should discuss why either side is right or wrong. As most of the argument is based on anecdotal evidence and opinion.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 03:07 PM) He entered a plea deal with that counseling though, didn't he? If he goes through counseling its completely dropped besides for the arrest record. So its a deal, with the potential for all charges to be dropped. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-footba...avoid-jail-time If Rice successfully completes the intervention program -- it will take at least a year -- the third-degree aggravated assault charge would be dismissed. And while the arrest would remain on his record, there would be no conviction.

lol Kobe did not commit a crime? He likely raped a girl and paid her a significant figure to go away. People are acting like Ray Rice was convicted, he wasnt. In fact unlike Kobe, they never even attempted to go to trial. /shrugs At least get the facts straight before you act like Rice was actually convicted of any crime.

QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 02:50 PM) Kobe wasn't on video raping a girl. Pictures of the rape were not available to the public. Its not the same. There is much more evidence that is public in these cases, coupled with admission of some guilt. No there really isnt. Kobe admitted to having sex with her. AP admitted to hitting the kid. Rice admitted to hitting his wife. Each situation they argue that their are circumstances that either mitigate or justify the actions. /shrugs At least call a spade a spade.

QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 02:45 PM) If he admitted to rape he would have been suspended. That's the point, not to compare the actions. Not really. Kobe admitted to having sex with a girl, the district attorney/girl thought it was rape. AP admitted to disciplining his child, the da/mother may think it is child abuse. Its entirely the same, AP has never said "Yeah I abused my kid", the same way Kobe never said "yah I raped the girl." But neither deny the action, both argue that there were circumstances that justify the action. Same thing.

QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 02:36 PM) Kobe admitted what? Was found guilty of what? Kobe admitted to having sex with a 19 year old girl. The rest is really irrelevant because what we are talking about is the NFL suspending players who are currently being charged with crimes. The equivalent would have been Kobe suspended while the rape case was going on. (edit) Im not going to get into whether raping a girl or hitting your kid with a stick is better/worse.

Kobe has a lot of sponsors too.

This is what I posted in the Ray Rice thread: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/report-vikin...-205407718.html Well I have to imagine that anything involving children being harmed is going to result in a pretty significant suspension.

yeah Galaxy is what im leaning towards unless apple blows me away.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Sep 12, 2014 -> 10:51 AM) Google Music is on iOS. There, now you don't have to look it up. HAHA nice, only other thing I dont like about apple is lack of microsd.

To be honest, I just prefer getting one of the main phones because that way I know there will cases, apps, etc that will work for it. Sometimes its just easier to buy mainstream and honestly, I dont really care that much. Right now Im mainly thinking samsung because I have a lot of googlemusic (none through itunes) and Im so lazy I dont want to even look up whether google music works on apple. Thats how lazy Ive become towards technology.

Due to bad luck the glass on my phone cracked (walking through turn-style it somehow hit right where there is no protected and cracked it), so Im probably going to be getting a new phone in the next month or so. Cant really decide on Samsung or Iphone. Im thinking just sticking with Samsung, but with Iphone actually being normal size now I may change.

Maybe they can rent a party boat for the Vikings...
