Reds as Trade Partners
QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Sep 19, 2014 -> 08:38 PM) There's no way way in hell we'd win the bidding for Cueto. Someone will pay more than we can pay. I know I'm a buzzkill but man it's true. It's not even plausible. I've spent a big portion of my life steeling myself from being let down, and maybe I've paid for it emotionally and I don't have as much fun as I could. Is it worth it to sacrifice the highs to avoid the lows? Sure doesn't sound like it when you put it THAT way. This post was awesome.

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 19, 2014 -> 08:34 PM) Be outraged, but don't act like it's the biggest deal in the world. This criticism of mine applies more to the tone and narrative used by the media than individuals reacting to the story. I think you mistake anybody commenting on anything on a message board as making it "the biggest deal in the world".

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
I guess jenks's point is that in his perfect world, we would not be upset about women being hospitalized by their fiancees and 4 year olds getting whipped in the testicles with a tree branch. Ahh what a world, free of the oppressive stench of PCism, where you can beat your wife without fear of people being condescending.

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 19, 2014 -> 01:17 PM) A one-year old child. Jesus. A child that young, their nerve endings are still not fully formed. That's why scratching a baby is somewhat excruciating for them. Maybe it's better at 1 year old, but physically disciplining a 1 year old is a horrible and abusive idea.

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 18, 2014 -> 09:20 PM) Ok, so it's fair for you to say the fact that we spank children less results in a decrease in violence, but if I say obesity and lack of discipline in the same sentence, Balta insists I am saying one causes the other and insisting I link to 20 studies within five minutes. Fair enough. I don't believe a lack of spanking is the reason this group is much better than your cohorts, however, I do think that the declining rates of that type of behavior does not indicate that this group would be undisciplined.

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
I'm going to strike you a deal, past generation, if you stop spanking your kids, they will kill each other less, do less drugs, have less sex and be smarter, but they will go outdoors less. I wonder what they will choose.

I think we can all agree that iamshack is a great example of how to debate respectfully.

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
From what I understand, kids these days are having less babies than ever, scoring better on tests than ever, smoking less cigarettes since cigarettes became popular, less violent than 50 years ago and returning to pre-war levels... That doesn't sound like a discipline problem.

2014-2015 NCAA football thread
I think the reason this is a big deal is that Winston sucks and continually comes across with the maturity of an 8 year old, but also is worse because of the sexual assault he likely committed. So, a dangerous person with an 8 year olds mentality leading the best team in football.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 18, 2014 -> 01:45 PM) So it sounds like you were offered Gerhart for Peterson, right? You're 0-2 and it sounds like you didn't pick up Asiata. You need to win now. You take the trade. No, it's the other way around. He has Gerhard and was offered AP.
-
2014 Fantasy Football Thread
Well, moot point. I only got Asiata. He may have been worse due to Vikings not being able to throw, which should TOTALLY CHANGE right?

NCAA basketball 2014-15 thread
Jakeenan Gant and Deangelo Allen suspended after being arrested for "suspicion of 3rd degree assault". first: :crying :crying Second, I didn't know there was a third degree of assault. Third, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. I remember in 2007 I was so fed up. Demare Carroll had been shot in downtown columbia somehow, butterfield had hit his girlfriend in the face with a shotgun. I wanted basketball to be gone, then the team widdled down to a core that was some of my favorite basketball players ever. I hope that's the case. But I can't see us being good without Gant in that core.

How well does the "we should just shut Sale down in May" and "Give him Tommy John Now" crowd look right now?

Adrian Peterson indicted for negligent injury to a child
QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 17, 2014 -> 12:19 AM) If there is physical evidence of how you hit your kid about 10 minutes afterwards, that would be an indication that you went too far. As far as Cutler goes, the lack of vaccination is bad. There is a degree to which it is accepted because that is basically an upper-class white way to harm children. The main difference to me, though, is that Jay is leaving his kids open to potential harm. It is reckless. What Peterson did is actively harm his kids. What Jay Cutler is doing is more like choosing a babysitter by random draw and knowing that there is a 1 in 1000 chance that the babysitter is Adrian Peterson Except he also invited all the neighborhood children to be babysat as well.
