QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 01:41 AM) Did you see Brokaw's special piece from London on Churchill and London staving off Hitler and holding on until the US finally joined the war effort? Also touched heavily on Churchill staying after FDR begging him basically for weapon. There were emotional interviews with some British survivors of Germany's attack on Britain in 1940 and 41. The conclusion was USA should be thankful to our pals in Britain for hanging on, that the world would be a much worse place today had Hitler taken over England. I enjoyed it. Was it all accurate? So, we should thank Britain rather than them thank the USA?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 09:02 AM) He is too frequently injured I think that would be the only reason he is an option, injuries lower the amount and length we would sign him, plus would have guys like Castro/Santiago waiting in Charlotte for the opportunity.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 12:09 PM) tell me where I am wrong. Which teams do you think they can beat? They can beat all those teams, although wouldn't expect more than a split vs Packers. Will they win all those games I don't know, but I would consider them favorites vs Dallas/Carolina and it be a tossup between SanFran/Houston

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 12:04 PM) He's been down in the 20-25% the past few weeks. Unsurprisingly, that is about when his average started to soar He always has been that type of prospect that if/when it clicks he was going to tear the cover off the ball, hopefully he continues it next year in AA. The Barons might start year with Walker/Sanchez/Thompson and that should be a fun trio to watch together. Given their struggles this year wouldn't be out of the question if Saladino/Mitchell are back with them as well.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 11:44 AM) The Bears D will be the downfall.. Lets take a look at their schedule Indy W Packers L Rams W Dallas L Jags W Lions W Carolina L Tenn W Houston L San Fran L Minn W Seattle W Minn W Packers L Ariz W Lions L So the Bears are so bad they can't beat one of the tough teams on their schedule outside of splitting with the Lions?

The Wsox are going to win today and all this b****ing is going to be for nothing

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 11:24 AM) Sanchez have an outside shot at a 2013 call up if he continues this pace and Beckham continues his? I think in all likelihood Sanchez will be in the minors all of next year with possibility of a Sept. call up. If I had to guess he will start year in AA and if continues hitting at a good pace be a relative quick promotion to Charlotte.

I think Daredevil is definitely a story Nolan could make Batman 2.0 with. That being said, I can't see him wanting to do something so similar.

Wow, this is the first time I've heard someone argue against having hate crimes.... well first time hearing it from someone who wasn't part of a hate group.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 03:21 PM) Again, LOL. So completely incorrect in terms of understanding the definition of "opinion". There are "experts" who rate the top movies of all time and movie critics who make a living analyzing movies whose opinions are f***ing moronic, too. Rightttt, I'm sorry some people need more than explosions and loud noises to consider a movie one of the best ever.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 10:55 AM) LOL - this is a definitively stupid statement. You can't claim fact based on opinion. There are "experts" who rate the top movies of all times and movie critics who make a living analyzing movies and none would rate the dark knight rises near the top. You can have your personal opinion on a movie and have it as your personal best but fact is it isn't the best movie ever and not even best of the series.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 07:33 PM) I have a feeling people are going to be leaving the league early being happy that their brain is intact in higher numbers as time goes on. I think money/fame will make sure most people stay for relatively long careers.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 09:32 AM) Everyone has their opinions. The only thing in this thread that irritates me is when someone thinks theirs is the only one that matters. Yes everyone has an opinion, but the fact of the matter is The Dark Knight Rises isn't anywhere near the best movie ever.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 09:20 AM) I watch Fox News Chicago Every morning. So yeah, no. Fox news is easily the worst of the local channels, stand by if you want actual news watch world news. Still get all the important information in America and find out what's going on in rest of the world.

SPOILERS He ordered the autopilot to get fixed he didn't do it himself and nothing about the movies timeline made much sense how did he get out of prison in India or wherever and get back to Gotham so fast. Inception and Batman are also unrelated there is no question he is alive at the end and if you think otherwise you are overthinking especially since Bale said he would do another if Nolan was on board.

I don't know why but it really irritates me that a few people think The Dark Knight Rises is the best movie ever when it is arguably the worst of the trilogy.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 01:04 PM) NBC's live options on tv, Women's Water Polo, Men's Field Hockey, Women's Handball. This sucks. You'd think they would be playing women's beach volleyball. I really hope NBC doesn't have the Olympics next time.

That is not a very promising list, David Wright being the exception but that option will be picked up. I can understand the Sox not wanting to pickup Youk's option but I do hope the plan isn't Morel.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 12:34 PM) ^ exactly, lol. He'd bash every one of those signings, because none of them are Dwight, Lebron or Kobe. The 2011 Mavs team is exactly the type of team he DOESN'T want us to have. The difference though with Cuban you know you have the owner whose going to go all out and do everything possible to put together a team that will compete for the championship. The Bulls are just a mess and too cautious to make any risky moves.

Coop deep inside him just sounds disturbing

Good for Murray, he played some amazing tennis and now I'm super excited for the US Open.

No link so far just breaking news on yahoo.com stating it.

Is anyone else having the problem of a third of the images not loading up?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 11:30 AM) It is disappointing that you have such low expectations There wasn't much they could have done this off-season.... the dissapoinment falls from them failing to land any of the big 3 a couple years back and failing to do whatever it would have taken to land Howard. I wish JR was tougher and would realize the only good thing the current front office has done is draft Noah and luck into Rose. Can KW be the GM of both teams?

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 10:17 AM) "Man my man ‪#AndersonSilva‬ went to work tonight, consistently amazing," Jones said "I guess Anderson said he had no interest in fighting me at tonight's press conference, I feel the same way about him. Nothing but respect." Right Silva said it so he is just going with it, especially since it would be his belt up for grab.
