QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 10, 2016 -> 01:20 PM) Pretty much. If Sami Zayn is used right, he'll draw. Could even take DBs place. Pssh, Sami is too small, Owens is too fat, Bayley isn't a tall blonde, no chance they draw.

I don't think Steph half court 3 pointers should count if they're bank ins going forward. He's too good for that.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 8, 2016 -> 07:23 AM) As much fun as the conference tourneys can be, I really think they should start giving the auto bid to the regular season champion. You dominate the league for 3 months, then it's all for nothing. Plus, that will increase the odds of a 16 seed finally beating a 1. The more upsets that happen in these tourneys, it weakens all of the teams in the main bracket. They're part of the fun of March though. We could just eliminate automatic conference bids all together and just let a committee decide the top 64 teams if we want to go that route or just get rid of the one and done tournament and make it a series of games.

Official 2016 Soxtalk White Sox win total prediction thread
86 sounds about right to me. I'm not sure if that gets us into the playoffs but I think it at least gives us a shot.

So Y2AJ are gone and LoN is getting their title shot at Roadblock now. I wonder where this leaves New Day for mania now? Maybe it'll be Gallows and Anderson or Enzo and Cass. I'm intrigued.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Mar 7, 2016 -> 05:03 PM) any background on this Sami guy? Why is he so well known / good? He was a super well known Indy wrestler before he came to wwe. Him and Owens have a big history and Sami is probably the closest comparison you can have to Daniel Bryan.

MMA Thread
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Mar 6, 2016 -> 01:16 PM) So was Holm. And Holm dominated Rhonda. It wasn't a close fight. Holm also did a lot better against Tate than Rousey did against Holm. Flat out, if Holm isn't getting a rematch(again, she was winning that fight big), then it should be Holm vs Rousey to see who the #1 contender was. And Ronda didn't get a rematch right away. I bet Holly is the next challenger after Meisha-Ronda. I'm not even arguing that id rather see something else besides Tate-Rousey cause I would but she absolutely deserves the next title shot.

She was also an undefeated champion before she lost, she absolutely deserves a title shot.

Ya why wouldn't Ronda get the next title shot? She should absolutely be next in line.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 10:56 AM) You guys realize, the target audience is the kids, whose parents were the primary demographic of the original. I don't think, outside of some early nostaligia, the goal was for people in their early to late 30's to be watching the show, rather their kids to be watching the show and the parents at least having that ability to "relate" to it, so to speak. I could be wrong and my kids aren't old enough. And I thought the show was a classic and watched it plenty growing up. I don't think so. Almost everything they do is trying to be a throw back to something in the original. It's targeted at us.

I still think Hoiberg(for now) is the least of this team's issues. Front office needs to go and the roster needs a complete overhaul and then go from there.

I'm sure Owens will somehow make the Big Show feud interesting if that's where they're going but that dude deserves so much better. Could have gotten an epic feud with AJ or Sami but we might be getting the f***in Big Show instead. Frustrating. Used to love Dolph but his character is just absolute garbage now a days. And I just don't care about the HoF either way.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) Are we gonna see a Kevin Owens vs Big show match at mania? Ew Looks like it. That'll piss me off more than anything else they've done for Mania. EDIT: Maybe they'll call an audible when they roll through all the big cities the next few weeks. They better.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 02:21 PM) Fuller House was awful. But I'm in my late 20s, so I had to watch. I got to episode 6 and finally threw in the towel. Like you said, I needed to watch it and I kept trying to get through it but I gave up after episode 6.

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 02:12 PM) I just think he may not have known the context for why Chris Rock was giving the monologue he gave. I think this is 100 percent what happened. Like I said, not a big deal but he does have to be smarter than this.

It's not a big deal but at the same time he's got to be smarter than that. In this day and age, people are going to run with that.
