QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 19, 2016 -> 10:12 AM) Which I think is really unfair. Why is that Groce's fault that a player makes a stupid decision? Groce should be fired for his results on the court, not some random act by a player in the middle of the night. He has no control over that. If this was the first time, and he was kicked off, fine. But it's not. For the second time in 6 months, your future of the program starting big is about to kicked off the team. Now we have nothing in that department. Can't build program stability when this is a reoccurring theme.

Have to think that seals Groce's fate.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 19, 2016 -> 07:00 AM) He has more sweet sixteen appearances than Illinois does since 2006. And hes a big part of that awful Illinois run. Despite the fluky tournament run, he was also a worse in season coach at Ohio, which is a terrible program to begin with, than the guy preceding him, and Illinois decided to hire him anyways.

It's not like Groce was a good coach before. He needs to go. Simply delaying the inevitable. The Illinois way to hang on to coaches for far too long.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 02:11 PM) I am going to quietly await one more move. Or is the next move the Bulls signing Joe Johnson? Joe Johnson is staying in brooklyn they reported today.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Feb 18, 2016 -> 11:07 AM) Why would the Kings do that deal? They'd essentially get half a season of Gasol for McLemore, Bellinelli, and a draft pick, no? The Bulls own the draft pick. You can put back the rwstriction although I dont think itll matter anyways. McLemore and Bellinelli for Gasol wouldn't be bad for them.

Does he really not start til late march? Ugh.

Bulls get Okafor, McLemore and Bellinelli Kings get Pau Gasol 76ers get Nikola Mirotic, Doug McDermott, the kings 1st rounder which they agree to unprotect, and Bulls 1st rounder. That gives them up to 6 first round draft picks, lol.

Meltzer is thinking Sting despite everything. Also mentioned Goldberg.

The Tribune website changed its payment/free article structure literally just a few hours ago, if that is the point of contention/confusion

No idea how that would work. Bulls get Okafor Kings Gasoline 76ers the kings first unprotected and????

Undertakers WM opponent is set and he's not on the current roster, according to Meltzer.

The cell used to have the GOAT beef sandwiches. Changed it recently. Still good.

5.347 million last year. 9.354 million would have been 4th highest last year.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Feb 16, 2016 -> 03:11 PM) In better news, in July WWE will do a 32 man global cruiserweight tournament which should be fantastic. The specified a 205 weight limit. They don't even have enough guys to fill half that with nxt and wwe rosters combined. The fact that they're calling it global makes me think they'll be inviting other organizations. I know they met Lucha Underground recently. Wonder if that they'll be invited.

Wade Barret gave WWE notice today

Taker nixed his match vs Stroman at WM. Reportedly Stroman is gonna be the main event for whoever has the belt coming out of Mania though so you can look forward to that.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Feb 15, 2016 -> 09:14 PM) This main event scene is absolutely horrid. The dudleys stuff then Ambrose teasing the turn was pretty good stuff.

What-chanting AJ Styles. That's a bold move.

There's twitter chatter about it but I have no idea what the source of it is either.

The fatal 5 way was a fun clusterf***. Gives me some hope Ambrose may win Sunday, but I know I shouldn't have that.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 15, 2016 -> 02:53 PM) According to Whitlock (consider the source), the writer of that article is a known liar. He's a white dude that complains all the time about treatment of black athletes. Apparently Whitlock was going to hire him for his ESPN site but they couldn't substantiate a lot of stories he told, so they moved on. edit: this was all on the dan patrick show this morning. The whole thing was a hitpiece that brings up crap from 15 years ago. And the underyling premise is that the media doesn't talk enough about white athletes like they do black athletes. Of course the huge missing component to that argument is the coverage of Kobe Bryant. This is his swan song season and i've not heard or read a word about Colorado in any of the stuff about him. He was celebrated last night, just like Peyton was celebrated after the SB. Pretty similar treatment. second edit: and really, it looks pretty bad and it's pretty terrible, don't get me wrong, but it's the dumb, immature prank of a 17-18 year old putting his junk on a trainers face. Quite different from other acts we've seen and heard about, like some girl getting raped by a star QB and the entire school and community laughing her out of town. This is NBC on the recent "news" "Before going any farther, it’s important to understand what the 74-page document is, and what it isn’t. The 74-page document is a piece of advocacy. The 74-page document is something that was written by the lawyers representing Jamie Ann Naughright in her defamation case against the Mannings. The 74-page document is, necessarily, one-sided. The 74-page document is not objective. The 74-page document is not supposed to be objective. The 74-page document is not a court order or any other decision made by a neutral party. And, ultimately, the 74-page document is incomplete without comparing it to the corresponding “Facts of the Case” document submitted by the defendants in the case." No self-respecting source was gonna stand behind this which is why it took a liar like Shaun King to author it and the New York Daily News to publish it.
