So who is pumped for this Chargers-Raiders game?!?

Well Brady sucks. Touché Steve.

I always found it hilarious how Lebron was a Bulls, Cowboys and Yankees fan growing up, front runner much?

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 09:44 AM) I loved watching Jimmy play last night. That kid had springboards shoes. After every missed shot, you can count on him to be around the ball and leaping over bigger guys to get go it. And his ability to get to the line is refreshing to see. Since it was preseason last night, I was hoping Thibs would give Snell and Teague more burn, but it doesn't seem like Thibs trust either guy yet, which means Jimmy will be play close to 40 minutes this year. Snell was definitely nervous and played awful last night. I'm with you though, I loved the pick of Snell and hope he gets at least some pt this year but with Thibs track record that's very unlikely.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 07:45 AM) I just hope Thibs doesn't over work him so that he is worn out come playoff time. Ya he's going to see Luol Deng minutes this year, I'd bet on that.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 07:37 AM) You know how much I love SIU basketball. Despite how hard it has been to do so the past 5 years. I know but I still wanna hit you with a GTS now. To answer the original question, I actually became a Duke fan when I was younger because all my friends were UNC fans(that Michael Jordan guy went there if you didn't know) and I liked to be different. I grew out of caring for them though when I hit college and became obsessed with SIU bball and that has worked so great for me.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 07:29 AM) I applied there and was accepted but there was no way I could afford to go so I went to SIU. I loved my Carbondale time but I shouldve just sucked it up and went to Ann Arbor and worried later about student loans. How dare you.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 12:35 AM) So, how is that trolling? I literally took that pic from a rival's site where they said wow this proves it was good. I'll stop since clearly folks are angry about the game, but I havent trolled for reactions in all my years on this site. Frankly thats a decent insult. I certainly don't think you're trolling, you're just being a homer. I'm not angry about that play cause no one has any idea if he got it or not. That being said his knee was clearly off the ground by the time he gathered control of the ball, where he was eventually down I have no clue because we had awful angles, nobody knows.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 12:23 AM) Looks pretty secure there. Hand wrapped around ball, ball on ground, knee on ground. Ha, you're definitely now being a homer.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 12:16 AM) He doesn't have the ball yet. It's very clear on the replay that his knee is off the ground when he gains control of the ball.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 12:07 AM) Have any details? How was his shot? I can't wait to see Rose again in person. He didn't take any jump shots, shot a floater or two, besides that everything was going to the hoop.

Btw Jimmy Butler is going to hurt some other sg's this year, that kid is beast mode.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 11:49 PM) How'd he look? I missed the game. Exactly how you'd hope. The rust was very relevant but the explosiveness and athleticism are there.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 11:10 PM) Or all the refs and the replay official. Still wouldn't have won. The play stood, it wasn't confirmed, they had no idea either.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 11:02 PM) Really obvious he was short. You guys are both being ridiculous.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 10:50 PM) The back angle where there is no depth perception? His knee was down and the. He was short. The 75 holding calls that were blown help nw anyway. Escaped and advanced. His knee was definitely not down and I think he did get the 1st but as you said no depth perception on that one angle so we have no idea. I'm still wondering how they don't have a camera on the other side of the field.

Back door cover of the century.

How is there not a camera on the other side of the field?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 07:11 PM) The day I have my first child will not be as happy as tonight. Derrick Rose is back, he's inviting contact, and I am finally, finally f***ing at peace. Welcome back, Derrick. Bulls will be champs this year. Book it. Had to change my pants a few times in the first half! He's clearly rusty as hell as his ball handling is real off but the athleticism is there(and that's all that matters at the moment), had a few explosive plays in the first half.

Taj and Stacey just broke the satellite...DAMN IT

18 months, finally.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 4, 2013 -> 07:37 PM) This is all very personal. What works for you, or me, will not work for others in most cases. I work out at 11am, myself, and I find it great. Others, like your, prefer it earlier...the only thing I'd recommend against is really late night workouts...such as 8pm or later, unless it's the only time you can do it. Yup no doubt. Just a suggestion to switch it up if he's not getting the work outs he wants. I just started working out mornings 6 weeks ago and I've just been killing it. Works so much better for me.

How many seasons have there been of Homeland? I think I might pick that up this weekend before the Bulls/Hawks/NU trifecta tomorrow night.

Rock when do you work out? The last 2 months, I've switched to working out in the morning before work and I've never had better work outs. Not saying that's for everybody but I just seem to have more energy that way.
