That's the game you like from Grant. Valentine has been funny from 3pt line. Missing short short short, then taking 2pters just inside line and draining em. Needs the summer.

**2016 TV Watercooler Thread**
I'm intrigued where night of goes: does it go to court, using the testimony for flashbacks? Do they start investigating independently? I can't imagine they box themselves in too much (court procedural) but I was surprised how much they focused on his journey to jail.

No something is up. You don't see his mom the whole time. The lunch scenes looked more like a cafeteria. This is something with the unreliable narrator again.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 07:10 AM) The commercials and clips make it look like satire to the original. It wasn't. And after thinking about it last night one of the biggest was havin. 4 comedians that they treated all as equitable. Bill Murray was the star of ghostbusters and he shined obviously. This had Kristin Wiig playing the straight person basically (huge waste) while Kate McKinnon was electric but I don't think they knew what they had there and she was not given much at all. Script was really just a mess.

Ghostbusters was not good. Too many jokes fell flat it takes you out of even the funny ones

Military Coup in Turkey
F-16s shooting down helicopters according to people I can't verify on Twitter. I don't think this coup will stick.

Military Coup in Turkey
All major Turkish parties now stand against coup in statements. Police apparently against military.

Military Coup in Turkey
I had a friend teaching for DOD base in Turkey that was forced to leave 2 months ago. You always wonder how much we know about stuff like this.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 03:37 PM) So yeah, what are NATO's rules when there's a military coup in a NATO nation? Good question.

Sox Looking for CFers
I would too, but I'm more reluctant to move a big package for a CF that will make us slightly above average.

Greg remember when michelle obama during the 08 nomination process when she was slandered as having a tape where she calls white people "Whitey"? When she was hammered for saying "for the first time of my life I was proud " of being an American speech? Was that not in the Youtube video?

You doubt Shuck sustains that but are confident Jason Bourgeouis can? Shuck has been the perfect reserve OF for us since last year. He hasn't hit for much slugging but gets on base.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 15, 2016 -> 01:29 PM) Any opinions on Melvin Upton or my previous posts? I still think he's going to be the most realistic target. I'm curious though as to how much salary we can take on. I agree with you. I really don't want to trade adams / etc for players that don't excite me that much and could theoretically upgrade over. Upton is like Liriano a few years ago. Flawed, but a veteran, short term deal that won't kill you.

So Summer League report: Felicio and Portis are far and away best players on court, good to see of second year players, but like, the bare minimum of what you should see. Really would be nice if Portis can handle 5 in this league. Dinwiddie/Grant...not dominating.

Truck Attack in Nice, France
Stories of people running to the truck to jump on, a motorcyclist chasing after it trying to get into the cabin. Lots of people worth fighting for in this world.

I personally look for people for president that don't support authoritarian racist candidates, but, I don't know. I guess he is 35. That's a big accomplishment.
