You gonna skip the Dennis Erickson part I guess.

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.

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.

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.

lol resisting arrest.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Nebraska hire reminds me of Gene Chizik.

Ah yes, the people of new york should pay for that, not the officer who performed his job so poorly that someone died.

Man that is a terrible hire after firing someone for their lack of peaks.

Jerry Kill's health would scare a lot of ADs I'm guessing.

Great pitching does cover a lot of holes, not sure I'm in on trading for Greinke thou.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 05:50 PM) Asik and Bellinelli both werent allowed on the court until Thibs trusted them either. It comes down to that, if he trusts you, you play. McDermott hasnt earned it yet, Mirotic certainly has I feel like Asik actually played a lot that year.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 4, 2014 -> 05:34 PM) Im pretty sure McDermott is getting a redshirt year. It seemed to work out for Jimmy Butler pretty well Yes...it's nice Jimmy Butler worked out because otherwise we only have snell and teague to point to (kind of unfair since Snell actually played a lot last year).

And what does any of that then have to do with anything? Why are you b****ing about some f***ing looting 2 weeks ago after a man was choked to death and gets no justice. Nobody cares about your fetish for fully operational 7-11s.

I don't really ever want to be in that much on a pitcher unless they just won us a world series and we think the team is gonna be great for a long time.

McDermott has been a dumpster fire on defense and is hitting 9% of uncontested 3s. But it's early december. Players can get better just through practice, and lets remember that Bellinelli was a healthy scratch in games in december before he figured out how to play for thibs.

Would be great if this were like that made-up situation where everyone was so intimidated by the prettiest girl in school, she said yes to the only one who asked. Of course that story never happened in the history of high school so...

missed the whole game, can't believe it was away! What jerk scheduled a home-away back to back after an 8 game road trip? nothing for your 7 foot knees like hopping on a plane after a double overtime.

wellp, wasn't the 14 mill others had guessed. Good news (to me) as if he got 14 per melky would be anchored above that level.

All these Melo reports coming out. I have a feeling it's more NY media needling him now that his team is predictably crap. But, if it's the other way, what an idiot.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 3, 2014 -> 11:51 PM) This is why the NYPD changed their policy in 1985 to disallow chokeholds: Using methods known to unnecessarily increase the lethality of a situation should absolutely be illegal, but this guy killed someone and walks away free. Of course, they could just pull out their gun and shoot them in this case and would be perfectly fine. Funny that that language is even written.

Does a prosecutor request a certain charge, or do they ask a grand jury if any charges would apply? I have to imagine this is manslaughter at least.
