2015-16 NHL thread
QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Oct 9, 2015 -> 03:46 PM) I love it. 3v3 is a total gimmick too, but it's way more exciting than a shootout, and less campy. At least it's a gimmick where the actual game is involved. But ya, should be fun to watch through out the season.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 9, 2015 -> 01:41 PM) If she was so great she would put on weight to fight Cyborg, but she won't do it because she knows it would be her first real challenge. She'd rather just sit back and fight accountants and collect her checks. Other fighters move around weight classes all the time to prove they're the best. She just wants no piece of Cyborg. How many UFC fighters that were current champions moved around weight classes to take a fight?

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 9, 2015 -> 12:18 PM) Direct quote. "Floyd is one of the best boxers of all time. He would definitely beat me in a boxing match," Rousey said. "I unfortunately don't get into 'matches.' I fight for a living. In a no-rules fight, I believe I can beat anyone on the planet…that's my honest answer." Anyone who is that good at what they do thinks they're better than everyone, I've never seen a problem with anyone thinking that way. And she fight's everyone she can. Not her fault her division sucks or that some people can't cut weight/like roids.

2015 Playoff Predictions
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 8, 2015 -> 11:54 AM) If the Cubs can get by the Cards, they have a chance since Arietta should be lined up to pitch 2 games at least in the NLCS or WS. He's given up 4 earned runs his last 97 innings. He was very hittable yesterday, at some point someone is going to get to him. Maybe. I think.

2015 Wild Card Games
Been expecting the Arrieta market correction for a while now and surprised it hasn't happened today, he has not looked that great. Very lucky today.

Cutch had a hanger before his single too. Jake's going to give up some runs tonight.

Be fun to see The Cubs win tonight just to see how miserable some of you guys will be.

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 5, 2015 -> 10:23 AM) My point is, how can you control it when your schedule ends up sucking? You can't if you're Notre Dame but you can't be rewarded for it either.

2015 Catch-All thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 06:14 PM) Going to Vegas next month. Never been. I've got suits/clothes that I want to wear that don't fit me like they did a few years ago. I weigh about 190 at the moment. I want to get to 170 before I leave. Don't even worry about the scale then. Just calculate how many calories you should be taking in and exercise regularly and you'll fit into your clothes better than dropping 20 lbs of what isn't going to amount to a bunch of body fat.

2015 Cubs Catch-All thread
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 5, 2015 -> 09:12 AM) The Cardinals remind me of the 2000 White Sox. Just ran out in front of the pack and held on because of the lead they amassed, but injuries devastated them down the stretch. Once the playoffs hit, they were spent Ya but they're The Cardinals.

My/Your Off Season Plan
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 07:59 PM) I hope there's reports of the Sox going after both so that you can see, his value isn't as high as you or many people here like to think he is. To expand a bit as well, on talk radio here in LA, someone even brought up trading Puig for Quintana and they said not without another prospect or young hitting MLBer. When prospects were brought up, everyone said no to Seager or Urias for Quintana (they also talked about 4 other players as well). This was before the Dodgers got Latos and Wood. This is how you're trying to get a read on Q's trade value? LA talk radio?!

2015 Catch-All thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 05:45 PM) Random question alert: Are boiled eggs/egg whites good for you? I need to lose 20 pounds in 40 days. Can't lose 20 lbs in 40 days in any healthy way. Why do you have to do that?

2015 Cubs Catch-All thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 05:28 PM) Damn, I didn't even realize had the Pirates lost today that the game would be in Chicago. Anyway, should be a really good game. Arrieta makes the Cubs the slight favorite, imo. Gerritt Cole is pretty damn awesome too(not Arrieta awesome but damn good), to me this is a complete 50/50 toss up.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 03:08 PM) The rule of thumb is you can't overturn unless there's definitive evidence, and IMO, the "evidence" was indubitably not definitive. It was a catch.

Cutler was brilliant on this drive.

Missed PAT/not going for 2 on the 2nd td could kill the Bears here. Or help them in the long run for that number 1 pick depending on how you look at it.

Mark Buehrle to retire?
QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 4, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) Of course. I'm sure they'll do something ceremonial to have him retire a White Sox. It's goofy, but some guys like to do that for closure. Mark doesn't seem like the type of guy that would want to do that though.

I'll never understand why you don't go for 2 when scoring a td to get within 9.

Jimmy's not a pg and I don't see that ever changing but that said, the guy does seemingly bust his ass so I guess you never know.
