QUOTE (woods of ypres @ Jul 2, 2015 -> 03:07 PM) Ken Macha, Ron Washington, Bud Black, Ron Roenicke, Dave Martinez or the bench coach of a team that's been successful lately like the Pirates, or the A's. I thought Macha was against Advanced Stats. Maybe not. Ron Washington wouldn't be bad, but his life was in spirals when he left Texas. Not a fan of Bud Black or Ron Roenicke. I wanted Dave Martinez last time around, so I'd give him an interview.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 15, 2015 -> 04:21 PM) Did he ever say what gig he was taking in san diego? I imagine its another producer type position... I don't blame him. I'm trying to do the same.

Houston with the lead and looking to expand. If the Clippers blow this, that would be sad. Looks like they were ready to blow them out of the water in the 3rd.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) Good to see Rose play well in 2 out of the 3 games. Milwaukee's defense is actually decent too. Good signs. He actually played a good game in Game 2 as well. Even though his shot wasn't falling, he had 9 assists and 7 rebounds IIRC to go with 15pts.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 8, 2015 -> 06:17 PM) Technically didn't he have James Johnson also? As a rookie? I think not.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Mar 8, 2015 -> 11:16 AM) In a heartbeat. It has nothing to do with whether I think he'll turn out to be a good NFL player. Enough people think he can be, and you don't pass up a shot to take what could be a franchise QB. The Bears need another QB soon, if not now. Even if people think he'll be a dud, he's a lot more likely to succeed than any quarterback the Bears can get in the second round or later. EDIT: Only way I'd be ok with not taking Mariota if he's there is if someone else offers good picks to trade up and get him. But just taking someone else at 8 if Mariota is on the board? Absolutely not. If it's about BPA like Pace says and it's between Mariota and Cooper, I'd take Cooper. If I really want a QB, I'd take the guy out of Baylor in a later round. And I'm a guy who thinks the Bears shouuld've done everything to get rid of Cutler.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Mar 8, 2015 -> 02:07 PM) Does McDermott have to shoot every time he gets the ball? All he does is take contested jump shots and gets beat on defense. I was just watching Belinelli spin him around off the ball. What's funny is people were questioning Thibs on not playing him. Now it looks like Thibs is right again; he simply isn't ready. I, for one, will never question Thibs when it comes to rookies. Only guy who has failed under him is Teague.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 8, 2015 -> 06:03 PM) MLS anyone? It's opening weekend. Unfortunately, the Fire look bad again. 1) I hope they open up free agency. 2) What the hell is going on with them?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 08:31 PM) Salary cap. Well they could've kept DJ. Iirc, he wasn't asking for much at all. But garpax, don't value backup PGs except for Kirk Hinrich.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 28, 2015 -> 08:59 PM) Patrick Sharp has managed to sleep with every player's wife/girlfriend every year the Hawks haven't won the Cup. Impressive. Cheryl Scott is a nice pickup. Looks like he's the true slayer, not Gordon Beckham.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 12:59 PM) Goff left because he probably felt his road at The Score was blocked (all of the shows were pretty solid). Much like how several left to The Game. He just said it never felt right. I'm glad he's back. Only guy I will listen to at the Score religiously. I like Carmen(hate Jurko), so I will be switching to JGoff though. The guy knows his stuff and is willing to talk about other sports other than football.

The Slap looked dumb. The first ever draft commercial about Mexican Avocados had us all cracking up. Especially with the Polar Bear begging to get drafted by Mexico.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 2, 2015 -> 09:26 AM) Seriously, this was a miserable commercial year. The nationwide one with the babies dying of a tragic accident (such as a big screen falling on top of a baby or the baby drowning) was horrendous. I had to explain that to my 12 year old while looking at my 1 year old and feeling awful. Really killed the mood of the room.

Was supposed to have a surprise party today that got cancelled. No problem though. It was fine. My girlfriend and our kids were into it. Even if they faked it, it was a good enough job for me. Work will suck in the morning. Regarding the snow, I broke two of my shovels based on the weight of the snow. I wish I had a snowblower. Can't wait to move to SoCal.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Feb 1, 2015 -> 02:57 PM) Mine are coming due, and it's not pleasant. What did you guys end up in doing in terms of repayment plans, consolidating, etc? Does anyone recommend consolidating via getting a loan from a credit union for the sum, then paying that loan? Also, any good resources you found particularly helpful to figure this stuff out? I strongly suggest consolidating all of them. Unless you can get a lower rate with a Credit Union, don't do that.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Feb 1, 2015 -> 10:23 PM) I think it topped Super Bowl XXXIV for me with St. Louis and Tennessee. I loved Steve McNair's grit in that game and it came down to the final play. Yeah, McNair brought his team back from the dead. Much respect there. To me, that was the first great Super Bowl. Every previous one I saw was a blowout. Rams vs Patriots was good as was Patriots vs Panthers, Steelers vs Seahawks, Saints vs Colts, NY vs NE, SF vs Baltimore, and of course this year. These youngins don't know how bad super bowls used to be prior to 99.

How does a failed drug test include alcohol? Makes no damn sense.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 25, 2015 -> 11:27 PM) The cancel page for the WWE network crashed. Lol. And "cancel the wwe network" is the number one trender on Twitter right now. Got some real backlash happening. I heard. That's terrible, but it will get VKM to actually listen. Honestly, they should not have allowed DB to come back for the Rumble if the plan wasn't for him to win. They shot themselves in the foot for that. The next mistake was eliminating all guys who had a legit case to win, get eliminated early and in bad fashion. If Reigns had DB, Ambrose, Rusev, Bray and Ziggler as the final 6 (btw, where was Orton?), the fallout would've been a lot less. They had Kane and Big Show for godsake out there in the Final 4. We all knew what was up as soon as DB was out though. Having Reigns have to eliminate Big Slow and Corporate Kane was a joke.

Rollins missed that splash big time and we probably won't see it again because of it. Bubba Ray was great. And I think I officially lost this.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 25, 2015 -> 03:08 PM) Thibs has to realize that playing a lineup with Rose, Brooks, and Pau means you're going to have a ton of trouble getting any stops The bigger problem is, Brooks is the only guy bringing energy. No one else is. Hell, even cheering on the bench is non existent.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 25, 2015 -> 03:47 PM) There are some reports that a city hosting RAW at a later date has begin marketing Cena as the new champ but that could be wrong. As far as the rumble, I would love to see Bryan or Ambrose win it. Also, there are rumors that the Rock will make an appearance tonight. I could see that actually. Rock comes out, screws Lesnar, setting up Lesnar vs Rock at Wrestlemania. Rock shakes Cena's hands because he respects his wrestling ability now (not really).

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) Bears hired Dowell Loggains as QB coach. Cutler isn't going anywhere. Care to elaborate?

He was in the zone to say the least. 9-9 from 3 in that quarter alone. That was a barrage.

RIP to Mr Class, Ernie Banks.
