There is actually a bit of a TB problem in Alaska from what I recall.

Sure, yeah, Andrew Jackson was like "I consider you lesser, but my Christian beliefs are of such that we will treat you like humans and not harm you. That's the new AP history I believe.

http://grantland.com/the-triangle/kevin-du...future-scooter/ My thoughts: screw you, try being a Bulls fan.

That sucked.

Seriously. I can't believe Mike Carey was a ref. I have so much less confidence now in refs knowing he was a top one for 10 years.

I like the Thor movies, we'll see those at second run Logan Theatre.

What's reading?

.5% was the fastest growing economy in the Eurozone?

Noah is not right now. Probably won't be until January.

Canada is an ally of the US and sent special troops to help fight ISIS. Canada has been a huge ally and partner for most all US conflicts. Also guantanimo bay isn't closed. Also part of closing it wasn't just moving the prisoners to roam free like buffalo on the plains.

I kind of understood it. From Lowe's piece, what resonated a bit was the league is about to change drastically with the salary cap and even if it's unaffected they just want one less variable.

Terrible. Thoughts for the soldier who died and first responders.

I still just feel like Trestman has given Cutler a multiple choice test but Cutler continues to just pick C.

Kyrie "shouldn't" be a trainwreck, but he is the worst rated d point guard. So big news was that new draft proposal sank today and the bulls helped sink it.

Raanta had a great game as well. Richards/Bickell both had much better games, but most of their movement was away from the puck. Seems like Saad was able to control the puck and set them up a lot better. Richards, he played better but his game right now just seems to be throwing the puck at the net as soon as he touches it.

Imo says more about Saad.

Not a bad start. Was just to say Raanta looks awkward but he just made a huuuge save

He is very averse to putting both hands on the ball and he tends to hold it low. You can't pick and choose when to secure when you often don't see the threat coming - it's surprising to me the fumbles haven't been a bigger problem in the past, when he was sloppier and sacked more often. He totally did see that guy coming though which was most infuriating.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 10:51 PM) Pretty many. He isn't Calipari or Coach K when it comes to landing that level of recruit but it seems like he gets a 5* recruit just about every year these days and has for a while. Right well he's won a lot. But his classes are usually 4 star heavy, much moreso than your power 3 but he's always competing with them. I don't think getting a bunch of top 20s in year 3 is as much of a necessity as just making sure your 4 stars get coached up and stay. edit: he's won a lot meaning he will get 5 stars

How many 5 stars does Donovan get? I don't feel like he nails a ton but his 4 stars become seniors and then destroy the 5 star freshman.

Funny, throughout the year people were very excited about the prospect of a non-full time DH finally. And all offseason I've seen way too many posts about signing a 1b and pushing Abreu to DH, or another full-time DH.

This year may be the year that makes me never ever play again.

Isaiah Briscoe cutting list down to 3 this week. Looking at the list geographically, Mizzou sticks out like a sore thumb. I've always been confused how long we've been in this race, so if we stay in top 3 I will just enjoy the exposure of the top PG considering us.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 06:26 PM) Not what I said, we know he has input, but I think Bowman was responsible for the length and contract of Bickell. Is there a "want to keep Bicks around?" conversation that happens? Sure. But Q isn't the one calling the shots on the how and the what for contracts, and if it doesn't work it doesn't work. Bowman has to manage the roster and the cap. I'm not implying that Q is calling the shots. I think "Stan signed Bickell when daddy wasn't looking over his shoulder" is cheap, and I think the rationale was overpaying for roster consistency. I'm not saying it was right to sign Bickell, but the idea Bowman signed him out of pure idiocy on his part is missing some drivers.
