Gasol has a no trade clause.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 11:15 PM) What would camera audio do? Is the mic powerful enough to pick up noise outside the car? I am not certain what the great expectation is there. I think the video tells the whole story what more is needed? Would like to hear the dialogue of the officers on the scene if possible.

Here's the thing, Emmanuel's position, to me, sustains a cover up. I don't think he would squash an ongoing investigation into a police murder if it was being honestly investigated. The problem was it just was never investigated to begin with and he did not overturn that behavior. And we all know the incentives here (you can see it in the fraternal order of the police statement above), any statements or investigations that indicate a single police officer acted wrongly is apparently an idictment on the whole police.

You can say that for any coach. He was one of the top coordinator hires lsat year and when he joined there was immediate talk of him being Pinkel's replacement. They probably did not realize that would happen so soon. It's hard to let someone go you think is going to be a great head coach just because you would prefer they work 2 more years. There's no guarantee he'd come back from memphis.

I think Rhodes would have preferred Odom with 1-2 more years as a DC or head coach at a smaller program, but its clear this staff saw him as a future HC and went with him. That D had a lot of talent, but they also were top 15 with one of the worst offenses in division 1 in terms of holding TOP and field position.

Barry Odom is new Missouri head coach. I hope he keeps coach Kuligowski as DC and fires josh henson

Katy Perry was entertaining as hell, so was Bruno Mars. Coldplay is a dude at a piano with a tailed-coat.

You don't think there is intense pressure from city officials that work with CPD to prevent stuff like this from coming out to "protect morale"? See: http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/7/71/1147...pd-another-blow

Yellen signaling rates to rise in december. sub 2% inflation.

Wow, yeah, look at this article that quotes witness recounting events from the night. Matches to a tee the video. It's from 2014: http://invisible.institute/news/2014/laquan-mcdonald

http://chicagoreporter.com/how-chicago-tri...lice-execution/ There is a trib story interviewing a father and son who were in a car that was stopped as it happened but I can't find it now.

Missouri board of curators meeting tomorrow at 1pm. Likely to approve contract. I'd like to say it will leak soon, but Kim Anderson didn't leak until an hour after that meeting.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 04:01 PM) Right, but this is where the confusion lies...I attempted to clear this up a bit in my previous post. Of course not everything is sent away...but it's all collected and LOCKED UP in a room with strict controls...and anyone that tampered with any of it would be caught...this isn't the 1950's where any random cop could walk into evidence lockup and mess with things... The person I originally replied too basically said the CPD tried to cover this up...and it wasn't the CPD. No run of the mill cop could cover this up with the protocols they have in place now. That type of cover up isn't necessary in a police shooting. People are saying its a cover up because the other police there, the head of the fraternal order of police, and the officer all claimed the officer was in danger and was being lunged at when he was not. The other officers took no witnesses when there were. They may have deleted video evidence and tampered with audio. All of that is while they were gathering said evidence, not changing it after the fact. All it took was for people to see a cop acted over the line, and they all worked to protect him because they think it's protecting themselves. Shortterm it is, long-term it's not.

Everyone try to read this without cringing: http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/7/71/1147...pd-another-blow

The Tribune is going hard after the audio and why it was obscured.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 03:29 PM) Right now...whenever I see Rose aggressive, I'm happy. It puts more pressure on the D and he can't possibly keep being this bad from the shooting end. He just can't. In fact, he needs to be even more aggressive. Just no threes...please god no threes until he can see (even then, maybe still no threes). He also needs to get past his mental block around the hoop. He looks way too concerned about contact and it is causing him to be a much poorer finisher then his career norms. It just depresses the hell out of me when he goes 1 on 3 on a fast break knowing he's going to get his s*** blocked (which he does, everytime), knowing that my favorite with rose was whizzing through 3 defenseman making an impossible layup. I held out hope for a long time but he is one of the worst pgs in the league. I also still give thibs benefit of doubt: it's possible he ran a very rigid play-based offense because he saw how rarely his team would move. Now Hoiberg is forced to.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 01:06 PM) It's the same ol' every year with this team. They go through stretches every season where people start to flood the bandwagon, it's no different this year. I really hope Dunleavy can get back. I really think he's a huge part of our offense. But, I'm nervous his career is over.

Great move. He will so respect that we paid him more than required he'll be extra motivated.

Rahm now "welcoming" a DOJ investigation. I think one is absolutely necessary, and his opinion does not matter. The Chicago force needs a profound reason to clean up, and know that this isn't going to go away with time. A DOJ investigation helps with that.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 08:21 AM) It's the quality of these players that I question. I really don't see how any of those players will improve upon what the Sox already have, with the exception of Alvarez over LaRoche. Look at the ages, expected salaries and numbers on those players. Not very good at all. I'd much rather see the Sox use their limited resources on better talent than picking through non-tendered garbage. As of right now, Henderson Alvarez is the only played that really interests me and I'm leery on him because he gave up more hits than IP and didn't have to face the DH pitching in the NL. Might not translate well at US Cellular. I'd still take a chance depending on his asking but I wouldn't go overboard trying to sign him either due to the Sox needing to spend their money wisely on position players. I'd be happy to pick up a flyer on Aaron Crow, doubt he would be much more than an invite.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 10:42 AM) The only thing I do not like about Bennett is he seems to never get any YAC That is the strength of bennett to me. If he gets a little bit of space he bowls over people.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 10:54 AM) It would make sense that they picked the soft of the softest target possible as well, but it IS weird he worked there. Thats the confusion. Right, it's such an odd target that doesn't seem to fit other narratives of dense population or iconic places.

Wow, did not realize Sanchez was only 23 still. That actually gives me pause on moving on from him.

I know I'm debbie downer even as the team keeps winning, but man, it's really hard watching your team's backcourt go like 5-32. Pau and McDermott won the game.

relying on Miller for 16 games seems crazy.
