Honestly I would be way more pumped if Sutton and Ferguson turn out to be good tackles and we could save that money for elsewhere.

I would love if someone could explain hockey spreads in less than 250 words to me.

I emailed this and had no problem as well. You should probably contact your hosting provider.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 08:19 PM) I'm not going to condone cops going overboard when it comes to people not following their commands, but I don't see how you can compare this situation to something like the one in Chicago (or Hammond, wherever it was) with the taser. The woman wouldn't give the cops the ticket, wouldn't crack the window, the guy wouldn't state his name or exit the vehicle, they kept reaching for the back seat... ALL during a valid traffic stop. Here you have a woman who is positively ID'ing the "suspect" as a handyman and not the burglar. The cops didn't need to "detain" him anymore. The man said he didn't have ID but DID give them a ticket of his, and they were reaching in the back seat...to the child in the back seat? This is just the point, isn't it? Basically anything can be justified to kill someone. You fail to grant any possibility that maybe the people in the car were terrified after getting a gun pulled on them.

Yeah, just to be clear, I think the police were right to let them go. One, mainly because a neighbor came and told them the guy worked in the neighborhood. They probably could have done better in regards to this guy being disabled and he probably did not need to be forced to sit on the concrete.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 07:49 PM) When you are starting Jordan Danks for a month or a month and a half, trading actual good prospects for GarGo makes even less sense. I'd rather they get someone they could actually count on to play 150-155 or more games. Not someone you hope at this stage defies what his history has shown. Wasn't that Jermaine Dye's wrap before we struck big on him? We are going to need to take a shot at something.

Hawks lineups never change, so, I'm pretty pissed too.

QUOTE (gatnom @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 07:48 PM) Would she have stopped if they told her to? Not justifying the obvious poor actions of other police officers, but the situations are kind of apples and oranges. They did tell her to stop.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 07:34 PM) that story isn't mainly about them harassing the black guy, it's about the response the woman receives. Exactly, she completely disregards an order from an officer when she picks him up and takes him with. This is the exact same type of basic disobedience that is used as justification for a lot of force. See video above where man has given information, is talking normally with another officer, is refusing to go out of the car after having a gun pointed at him by the officer, the officers response is to break the window and tase him. These are situations where nothing is explicitly wrong, but one is handled well and the other poorly. I can see the response now if this women was in a poor neighborhood and dragged down and injured "She was motioning threateningly with her hands and started coming at the officer. The officer was scared and took down in self-defense" And everyone would say "Why did she not stop when they said to?"

Sign of a city for a football team - cannot find 70000 people willing to spend $30 for 8 home games.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 08:27 PM) You are citing one season where the bears were rebuilding their stadium as proof? At a university full of students from the chicagoland area? That is even more of a crap argument Yes. Nobody was saying "ugh I don't want to go to a crappy stadium to watch football", people went because the bears were playing. People aren't going to the Rams games because they don't care about football.

I find that to be a crap argument. Bears fans filled up that crap ass Memorial Stadium which was 2 hours away. Most cities have a safe base of 70k fans each week eager to watch football.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/local/...is-fascinating/ I don't understand why this woman wasn't beaten and tased.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 02:09 PM) LA has proved multiple times that they really dont care about the NFL. That was 20 years ago, the NFL has grown leaps and bounds since then, and the Rams have been blacked out at home for like 15 straight years.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 9, 2014 -> 02:06 AM) Two teams that won't have fans show up. Good move NFL I can't remember the last game the Rams sold out in St. Louis. It's the 2nd biggest market in the league, it should have an NFL team.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 10:55 PM) That passes the test with a goo.gl. It's the url. Somehow. Funny I would think that solution would seem more spammy.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 07:16 PM) Also not a bad use for it...though I'm not a great multitasker, if I'm texting someone I'm not actually watching the video or paying attention. Then again, most people aren't good multitaskers even though they think they are. I thought that was a weird use case but then I thought about how when I'm on a train reading on a browser or choosing music how I'll forget to answer texts that pop up because I need to exit the app, go to the text app, answer, then return. This would be nice to just answer from a pop up screen.

Is the URL explicitly this: www.marqana.com or is there a tracking key or anything in the URL.

What coach out there is an improvement over Vogel? Hop on the VDN bandwagon again? I'm sure Mike Brown will get 4-5 more stints.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 06:43 PM) Yeah, an incredibly explosive return man but are the good returns worth the negative plays? Considering we are getting negative plays with bad returns, how much worse could we be?

Eh, it's not that hard to fire a coach.

Honestly he's a good enough coach and their issues seemed to be personnel. He still got them to the conference finals.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 03:40 PM) Hey! What about me? I honestly had no idea you were, but will edit original post.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 03:24 PM) Alright, enough of this painting with a broad brush crap. It's not a broad brush, it is literally every U of I fan I know. Missouri has a bunch of Cardinals fans so I'm not trying to throw stones, but I've never seen another fanbase so focused on the payoff aspect of things.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Oct 8, 2014 -> 02:54 PM) OK, trying to find something to discuss aside from the next coach at Illinois. My projections for the playoffs/major bowls: Sugar Bowl/Playoff: #1 Florida State (13-0) vs. #4 Michigan State (12-1) Rose Bowl/Playoff: #2 Mississippi (12-1) vs. #3 Alabama (11-1) Cotton Bowl: #5 Oklahoma (11-1) vs. #8 Notre Dame (11-1) Orange Bowl: #6 Auburn (10-2) vs. Georgia Tech (10-3) [Orange Bowl is contractually obligated to take an ACC team] Fiesta Bowl: #7 Baylor (11-1) vs. #10 Oregon (11-2) Peach Bowl: #9 TCU (11-1) vs. #12 East Carolina (11-1) I'm not even gonna bother, my guess is while FSU may be undefeated, the rest of those teams are gonna end up with 2 losses. ole Miss is not going to end up 12-1.
