  1. They've been reluctant with 'core' guys, with fringe guys they've been quick to expand versatility. Unfortunately they were all bad defenders. Rondon is first that may be actually expanding good skill set.
  2. Bobby joins Gasol, wade as part of well-identified core pieces by Forman.
  3. The scary thing is Mueller wouldn't "release" a report. He will submit his report to the DOJ in charge. They could then decide to do something or just release it to congress. Or they could kill it.
  4. Could be. I think in general this was a bad day for reporting though. Total twitter race, I bet a lot of people were like "if there is an unscheduled meeting with the white house it's likely one thing", but equally could have been he was going to get fired, WH felt push back, then just a misunderstanding and "fake news".
  5. Wanna congratulate myself for getting everyone of my "matchup plays" wrong including dropping baltimores defense for the patriots since belicheck "owns his assistants".
  6. I don't know, I get what they were trying to get rid of, but they made it overly broad. Seems like they could have said "pile driving" and had a better execution so far.
  7. Pete Williams is reporting rosenstein refuses to resign and will have to be fired. WH appears to have leaked he resigned.
  8. I'm shocked it's only 18 tbh.
  9. In anticipation of being fired. https://www.axios.com/rod-rosenstein-resign-justice-department-trump-cf761f4c-fca3-4794-92d4-a56c9e32ff43.html?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic&utm_content=1100 This has many implications.
  10. Frank Isola to the athletic. Always liked him from a distance.
  11. Right and it's one thing to have a bad call. But the way the NFL bends over backwards to say "No that's correct!" for years is so bonkers. It feels like baseball and basketball would be like "that wasn't what the rule was intended for, we'll work with our officials to makes ure they are supported to make the rule enforced as intended while we review it as a league." NFL meanwhile seems gleefully determined to stand by this.
  12. Proof of google's bias against conservatives by tricking them feeding them alternative named people
  13. I don't know, I'm not happy with how Trubisky has played, but I also feel like they are only a few adjustments away. The good that I like is their average time of possession is eye-popping. The defense can stay dominant when they limit the amount of possessions for the opponent. Last year bears would go 3 and out or fizzle out between the 40s. Now they are fizzling out in the opponents 10-40 yard line. I think they'll find the plays that start to convert. But the offense will get "unlocked" as soon as trubisky hits some deep balls. I'm just gonna say I don't think he can't, I think though if we are staring at a situation where he's both not good at it and apprehensive about them that's bad. But the screens are a product of the lack of vertical passing. It's frustrating but also I don't remember the last game the bears came from behind to win. Last year all the effort to keep games close just kept us an arms length away. They did it. Cards are probably a bad team but they punched bears in mouth and bears grinded back. It was nice to see.
  14. In what was trap weekend in the nfl, I’m just happy to get out with a win.
  15. Wow buffalo taking it to Minny. Looking like upset day all over, makes me nervous.
  16. bmags replied to Buehrle>Wood's topic in Pale Hose Talk

  17. I still don’t think much of the basketball fit but man I love having Jabari back in Chicago. What a good person.
  18. Ha, dude this is the most I've posted in here in months. It's always interesting to talk politics with people with a sincere belief in what they are talking about and not just trying to get a rise out of people.
  19. I agree, and that's actually not what I was referring to there. Not the partying, the response since the allegations took place was what I meant by the lack of judgment. This is specifically referring to last night, where a person who has consulted with Kavanaughs confirmation team wrote a thread stating that another classmate was more likely to have committed assault. It was completely out of bounds, and there is a lot of circumstantial evidence that it may have been coordinated. edit: I was quick to modify what I was referring to, I'm not sure I want to agree with the latter thoughts. While there may have been different norms at the time, she feared for her life and it scarred her, and he's never apologized. I can't speak to norms at the time, and I have deep regrets about some actions of when I was younger, but if you get to the point you would be covering a persons mouth to prevent screams for help, I mean there is not much nuance there.
  20. I agree with you it's not on its face discrediting for the position if it is not proven. But, I think all actions taken since the accusation could. You factor in the actual events of the night, but Judge has gone beyond those claims to imply that Kavanaugh never got blackout drunk or unruly from alcohol in high school. Based on his writings and consensus on culture there, that seems unlikely. It is unnecessary to make claims like that, would he stand by those claims that Kavanaugh did not participate in that party culture? On record, we may find out that they coordinated the story to imply a classmate had done it, which to me shows horrendous lack of judgment and character. There's a lot that an investigation would accomplish on unanswered quetions here. If it does end up as he said, she said, then it is what it is. But it's why process is important. We know democrats don't want him and republicans do, but there are plenty of judges (Gorsuch, Roberts, Alito) that are confirmed without this baggage. They exist now. No reason Kavanaugh, with his background in some pretty crappy partisan politics, needs to be the guy. His response to this all may reaffirm those behaviors.
  21. And it's week 3. I still think Tyrod is better than he showed, but Hue was so adamant on not giving baker 3rd team reps, and now it's week 3 and he's the likely starter. Not smart planning there.
  22. But he hasn't taken his side under oath or under penalty of law for lying.
  23. It's crazy. Everytime Greenberg writes about chicago sports radio it gets like 120 comments. Any other article gets 15-20 tops. I like listening to the score sometimes, this isn't an insult, but I get it, because I think I am more entertained by everyone's posting about behind the scenes score stuff than the actual product itself. Mully and hanley is just painful, but haugh, oh my god. Bernstein and goff was an odd pairing, but I liked spiegel and goff. McKnight is just painful because how hard he is trying but he's just not naturally interesting. He's just a kid that wants to do radio a lot. And then parkins. My god that guy sucks. But regardless everytime I listen for a few minutes they are just talkign about some like radio jingle from the 90s. Really bad lineup nowadays. I think i like their solo shows better.
