I'm not sure I could handle that movie.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 12:25 PM) Ha, he was balls deep in win probability when the Cubs played the Cardinals I was wondering if he was getting paid for it.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 12:13 PM) I find win probability fascinating but I agree with both of you, it doesn't enhance the watching experience to get the numbers. The one exception: I'd like to see a fullscreen WP graphic every time a manager calls for a dumb sac bunt. This is actually a very interesting use which I'd like. But when the cubs were in the playoffs and bernstein was tweeting like "cubs now have a 65% probability of winning", it was like, cool, should I watch.

Question: more and more, win probability is being mentioned in game. While I find win probability interesting retroactively to see how impactful a specific play was, I find in game it is a stupid stat. Wondering what other people think. I hope it goes away.

good god nevermind.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 11:07 AM) Agreed. And at a higher level, really, it should just remind people why the country needs to be much less quick to jump to military action. The problem is do people even think we are engaged in military action in Yemen/Syria/(pakistan)? The status quo is that these are basically perfect in that there are no soldier lives at risk and no long term commitment. We are talking about a situation largely absent of what we think of military action.

Did HTC ever update zoe so that you did not need to hold down for the full time? These are so much better done than what was on htc one m7 because its not out of your normal usage. With zoe it was just like...okay, so it's a video?

There have been enough of these in the drone era that you'd really hope there was a lot of reevaluation of what the circumstances need to be for these types of attacks. Unfortunately we will not know if that's the case because there is not that transparency. But, the loss of innocent lives in hospitals/schools/weddings is really piling up (intended), and there needs to be a discussion on whether that is justifiable.

I agree on Kendrick. I think it's long-term foolish, but if they truly want to go at it again, upgrading at 2b is easy pickings offensively. I really would like to have us experiment with instead of trying to improve our offense, doing everything possible to help our SP succeed and hope for the best on offense. It didn't work for the mariners, but it increase the value of our SP in a trade and I think would have a greater "lighting strikes" quality to it if some guys have random career years.

Well he's right.

Hence the TPP.

Honestly won't get excited about Bulls until I see meaningful changes in offense. This team is still slow and plodding, with everyone watching isos. If he really can improve pace and get th eball moving (Dunleavy is the best on the team at this), I'll get on board. Would love to trade for a PG and get Portis involved. I still don't think we have the players to run this offense, seems like a me-too move.

The point isn't that the stock market is down and that is connected to wealth, its that any good news now is leading the fed to rate hikes, which will affect the economy and main street.

Good news is bad news. Heck of an employment report with a nice massive dip in the "part time worker looking for full time" work demo. This of course means stock market crashes with fear of rate hike.

I love the "live" camera pics. Went to colorado a few weeks ago and have all these awesome little vignette movies. It reminds me of Zoe on HTC One except you don't need to do anything different than take a picture. The "press and hold" tasks stuff I haven't used that much, but was a little fun for pictures in text when I'm on the run.

Missed the game last night, nice to see. Still want to see our pace enter top ten or else I don't know what Hoiberg is for.

our mgmt saw how bad Aaron Brooks was last year and gave him a raise.

Yeah that was good :D

I am surprised you all view Jose's opinion as controversial. I have zero doubt that Kershaw would have a higher ERA in AL. Doesn't mean he wouldn't still be top 5 in ERA.

Really feel like losing Gibson would be addition by subtraction at this point. Team needs the energy Noah used to provide.

that is nonsense. Why did I just read that.

Do not re-sign albers. Try and find another albers for albers price last year.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 01:18 PM) On the state-wide levels and governorships, a complete disaster. Look at the comments from the Dem losers in KY vis a vis the national party/Obama and being out of touch. Pretty blistering. More than just sour grapes. Because of Obama for eight years and now with Clinton the presumptive winner (by many), there seems to be a nonchalant attitude about all of this. Without the white house, DNC saw priority to grow house/senate coalition to override his agenda, with the white house, dnc does not see priority to grow house/senate coalition with moderate members as they never want to defend the votes anyway. Its a problem long term.

I'm not going to justify Chicago. It is so sad. The tribune twitter feed continues to shock me. Today a 9 year old who skipped halloween for safety was gunned down yesterday.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 11:07 AM) If he interviewed, you would have to think he has at least some interest. I just wonder what the Robin haters will say if he does eventually get Robin's job: 73-89 59-102 26-61 69-93 80-82 65-91 Universally known that anyone that questions Robin ventura loves Manny Acta.
