  1. I feel dumb for not realizing this was actually a jump. Do Sox have a CEO?
  2. Bulls scouting must be really good. They keep leaving Draymond Green wide open. Because he's a power forward. So he can't shoot I guess.
  3. Noah, learn who the f*** you are guarding. All I wanted was to watch a good game after the horseshoe day of college football and they come out flat as hell again.
  4. QUOTE (dasox24 @ Dec 6, 2014 -> 08:21 PM) Go Mizzou. Would love to see Alabama kept out of the Playoff. I can't handle Gary Danielson. He's such an a-hole.
  5. If he was an IP litigation lawyer would it matter for this anyway?
  6. I reported on a home invasion/rape case when I first started. The father, who we started to realize had some imbalance, was pushing his daughter to talk to the media. We decided to not interview at the scene, I got a victims rights advocate and interviewed later. Ended up cutting it from the story and focusing on the other family members information and police info. But, basically, every step in that story was hard and a huge "newsroom" decision. The reporter is right in a lot of sense but wrong in the whole. I didn't read the article, but read hannah rosen's critiques which were spot on. But beyond that, I understand the journalist and her explanations. The editor is an absolute idiot for running this.
  7. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 04:32 PM) I'd go 0, 2, 8. Ferguson he was completely justified. New York I don't think warrants a murder charge at all. I'm curious if an expert would say whether he would have died without the choke hold. Either way, the culpability is slightly more than Wilson. The Cleveland situation I think deserves charges. As SS points out, the officers put themselves in that situation for no good reason, and the video looks like he jumped out of the car and shot the kid right away. There was no time to order the kid to drop the weapon and wait for a response. You might as well claim that in any situation where the assailant has a gun, if the cop jumps out in front of him and fires he's justified because he could have been shot at any moment. edit: that's basically the "it's coming right for us!" south park shooting defense. I just want to point out, that every time you have seen an actual video of a controversial shooting that sounded like it had justification, you have been surprised at how quickly and thoughtlessly the situation was "resolved".
  8. "escalate escalate escalate"
  9. QUOTE (Heads22 @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 04:52 AM) Yeah, Arkansas might be a touch overrated. Their press was absolutely shredded tonight. They started holding the ball partway through the first half. These games always happen with an Anderson team. Some games it will get annihalated, other games not really matter, and others...it'll get you a win you didn't deserve. But he always had trouble away from home. Homecourt + press is a dangerous tool, i'll give him that.
  10. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Dec 5, 2014 -> 03:04 PM) I get the Bears defense being bad, there isn't much talent on that side of the ball. I just don't understand how that offense isn't good, not saying they should be great. I think Bear fans over hyped them last year, but they should be ranked higher than 19th in the league in points per game. Should be closer to top 10. I can't tell if the offensive line is just much worse or we aren't scheming for it as much as we did last year. OR, people know we are overcompensating for a bad oline by jumping every short route, and know we'll have to either throw it deep with happy feet in the backfield or LOL run the ball.
  11. Sale has literally 0 to do with this except for the fact that he's so affordable we can pay a ton for someone else.
  12. QUOTE (Sox Fan In Husker Land @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 09:04 PM) So hire Scott Frost as OC. Give $200 K to a "church" ran by a recruits dad. Win NC. Fire Riley. Then bring Frost back to go play in NC again. Sign me up. Yeah I'm sure Frost will make that lateral move.
  13. But even if he did well enough for OSU, it's not like it was the golden years of that program, or even considerably better than what it was before.
  14. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 06:07 PM) So all they need to do now is buy a Heisman level QB to come play for them and then get an offensive coordinator who is the real brains behind the operation and they can compete for a national title, suck when they offensive coordinator leaves, fire Riley, and then hire the offensive coordinator back to win again? Exactly.
  15. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 07:07 PM) Based on that, any cop that handcuffed him and forced him to lie on the ground should also be charged with his death. Okay.
  16. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 06:44 PM) Probably an unpopular opinion: I kinda agree with the decision not to indict Pantaleo for murder. I mean, the choke hold was for a matter of seconds, and after the choke hold is over he's still alive, still breathing (even if he's saying it's difficult to do so). If you're going to charge Pantaleo, don't you have to charge all of the officers for letting the guy lay there in a position where he's unable to breathe? I think that's a clear civil liability case. No doubt about it, the NYPD should pay. But criminal charges? Decades or life in jail for that? I don't think I can go there. Sorry, I re-read this, if they don't want to charge with 1st or 2nd degree homicide, fine, but a manslaughter case should have been pursued.
  17. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 06:52 PM) You honestly think he should go to jail for the rest of his life for putting a guy into a chokehold for 5 seconds? And really, I think to be logical about it, you'd also have to want to put any officer there on the scene in jail as well, since their decisions to handcuff him and keep him on the ground is the biggest contributing factor to his death. If I put someone into a chokehold and they died, I would certainly have a manslaughter or negligent homicide case against me.
  18. Ah yes, the people of new york should pay for that, not the officer who performed his job so poorly that someone died.
  19. Man that is a terrible hire after firing someone for their lack of peaks.
  20. Jerry Kill's health would scare a lot of ADs I'm guessing.
  21. Great pitching does cover a lot of holes, not sure I'm in on trading for Greinke thou.
