QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 06:28 AM) This deal makes no sense for Orlando. At least New Orleans got Gordon and Rivers. I thought they might go for getting absolutely nothing back, but nothing all on expiring contracts. I do NOT get taking that package and money back. Start from scratch with a s*** ton of money and firsts? I GET IT! This package? NO f***IN CLUE

Really wish we were the sixers in this trade. Trade deng as iggy, get bynum ( I know it's not that simple, but basic principle), and trust that with the extra 5th year you can offer, you have a top3 PG and top3 C on your team. Now that I see how the trade ended up I'm really f***ing pissed.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 10:04 PM) Yeah, dislocated. And that is the annoying kind of stuff that drags into the season Yeah that's brutal. That seems incredibly painful.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 09:52 PM) i doubt the texans get past the first round. Johnson, Foster and Schaub all have to stay healthy(which hasnt been an easy feat), as does JJ Watt who has already hurt his elbow. He hurt his elbow?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 09:41 PM) Mario Williams only played 1/3 of a season for them last year. Are you really worried that the bears might be playing the second half texans this year?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 08:33 PM) I'm in this boat also, which means that either I'm wrong or that the Bears are going to beat some teams that look like challenges right now. I'm guessing we might see Houston be worse this year (from their peak with Schaub), due to Mario Williams being gone.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 07:34 PM) People are expecting Newton to develop and improve, they have a very solid running game (outside of Newton), they have a decent defense and are getting Jon Beason back from missing basically all of 2011. I think Carolina will be a pretty good team this year actually. I mean, maybe i'm wrong, but a 60% completion and 4000 yards passing is a lot to replicate. You often see NFL QBs that had good rookie seasons slide a bit the next year.

Re: Cam Newton, I think it's very likely you see a regression. Not a garbage player type regression, but a full summer of coaches to figure out his tendencies will have an effect.

Perry Jones only plays like he's capable of when nobody's watching.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 06:52 PM) The sunrise picture is actually a sunset picture from 2005. http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegaller...eature_347.html Figured. Good work chimpy.

I'll take 10-6

So I saw a mars sunrise pic but it was in color. I thought all the pics were black and white? Was that one fake? I don't know where I found it anymore...get off my lawn.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 04:34 PM) The working poor cannot afford to take unpaid leave to vote during the middle of the day. Of course, these rules have been modified to limit early voting only to weekday working hours in heavily Democratic areas. Why are you trying to take away the voting rights of our troops?

So, watching the olympics, it's pretty amazing seeing peak Lebron James. I'm pretty sure it's just in the books the heat will win 2 in a row.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 01:08 PM) What do ncaa sanctions have to do with communism? Maybe communists hated pedophiles as well?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 10:44 PM) Another day, another banking scandal. This time it's a British bank laundering Iranian money in the US. How devoid of any sort of morals or sense of country can you be?

I ride my bike to work. So f*** that guy.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 07:42 PM) Mo' betta' images. Those are creepy as hell.

Mizzou has had 3 offensive lineman lost to season ending injuries this week. Only 1 starter, luckily, and he is replaced by 4star recruit Evan Boehm. Very nervous about this.

That article ended so suddenly I thought I was missing something.

That chart is really the best of both worlds for both arguments.

Amazingly, a chart was attached!

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 02:51 PM) Oh, no, it's a serious concern. Because like you pointed out, inflation should be way higher than it is...so the only logical explanation is deflationary pressure is holding that number down, which is why it's only 1-3%. http://www.slate.com/blogs/moneybox/2012/0...irrelevant.html

It appears the weather is republican.

Who would even leak something like this in August during a pennant race?
