  1. I dont think you have to be pro-war to be a fan of Kyle or this movie, because I certainly do not agree with it, however I understand his primary job was to protect the Marines on the ground from surprise attacks in an urban setting. For that he is a hero to me even if I dont agree with being there in the first place.
  2. QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 19, 2015 -> 12:53 PM) Fowler's a hell of a leadoff hitter. He walks a ton. This is a good trade for the Cubs, especially if all they gave up was Valbuena. Edit: see that they gave up Straily too. Still, I like this trade for the Cubs. Fowler sucks on defense if you put him in CF, so you have to stash him in a corner spot. He's the Cubs everyday CFer. Awful.
  3. It's not the guys fault that she slept with him unless it was rape.
  4. I thought it was good and Cooper was amazing Moore doesn't know the difference between WW2 and today's wars apparently so maybe we should send him out into an urban warfare area. It's pretty clear in the movie that Kyles duty was to protect his frontline guys. Nothing cowardly about that.
  5. Recruit flips from Texas to Auburn today, immediately instagrams a handful of cash. Eventually this will catch up to Auburn, right?
  6. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 16, 2015 -> 01:08 PM) "Ring thing"??? You fell for the oldest trick in the book... A girl has shown me one before prior to getting down to it, it was a huge turn off. #1, how did you open that wide to show me that.
  7. The reason they took the wins away is because Paterno and Penn State believed winning football games was more important than reporting child rape. They continued to cover it up during the duration of those wins they took away. It's a f***ed up town. Tonight the hockey team is putting 409 on their helmets. Sickening.
  8. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 16, 2015 -> 01:11 PM) put up the statue, Happy Valley. all is forgotten now Those sick f***s probably will. And they are restoring wins because PSU is paying for it. Thats pathetic as hell.
  9. QUOTE (zenryan @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 06:15 PM) If the Miller transfer rumors are BS, then this is really a dumb decision football wise. I would've thought Jones had some sort of inclination that Miller was going elsewhere by choosing to stay. I guess we'll find out soon enough. Miller can't throw until late summer early fall if ever. And the transfer rumors aren't coming from Braxton. They are coming from other schools that assume he will leave. That's why there are 15 schools mentioned.
  10. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 04:48 PM) Is Barrett the favorite to be the starter there I'd assume? Miller is 1, if his shoulder isnt fine then I would say its an open competition between everyone else.
  11. The info that he was turning pro this morning came directly from Klutch Sports Group fyi. So there was a pretty late change of heart.
  12. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 04:20 PM) Is fatherhood a requirement to play QB at Ohio State ? I couldn't imagine having a kid in college, let alone with football time requirements More of a cultural/poverty conundrum. I agree. I can barely take care of one now in my 30's
  13. If I was Miller I would immediately transfer to Houston. But he also has a kid in Columbus so who knows if it's even possible.
  14. QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 04:07 PM) So Jones is third string again or at least can compete for a starting gig with the other two. There has to be some behind the scene work here or the kid is close to getting a meaningful degree? As of right now he's first string. miller can't throw until late summer snd JT can't run until summer. He's one of two healthy QBs on the roster (with two incoming recruits)
  15. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 04:01 PM) Is Miller not transferring? As of right now no chance. He won't be able to throw until fall and is pretty much the clear cut starter unless he's hurt. The transfer rumors so far have been bulls***.
  16. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 03:52 PM) Without injury I do not see him playing much at all next year at Ohio St. Why call a press conference for that decision? Exactly. As of this morning he was going pro.
  17. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 03:27 PM) He has gotten some really bad advice. That or someone has said he is going to be the starter, in which case, he'll have a shot at playing himself into the top 5 and than I understand. Nobody told him he would start. If Miller is healthy he is the clear starter.
  18. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 03:27 PM) He has gotten some really bad advice. That or someone has said he is going to be the starter, in which case, he'll have a shot at playing himself into the top 5 and than I understand. Ginn Sr. changed his mind at the final hour. Bad bad choice.
  19. QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 01:25 PM) Staying is dumb way too many variables with Miller and Barrett both of whom I assume will be ready to compete in the fall. I believe FCS is the better bet at a Youngstown or something but with the family and what not the pros seem like a decent move. Neither will be able to go in the spring or summer. Millers shoulder may never be right. However JT should be fine and they are recruiting heavily behind these guys. It's a smart move to go.
  20. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 01:12 PM) I can't believe there are "experts" out there criticizing his decision to go pro. Who cares if he is a bust? If he stays at OSU, it's possible he never starts another game. Even if he does start, it may completely ruin his draft stock, who knows. Hes already 22, with a kid, why wouldn't you take the money when given the chance? Parlaying 3 starts into a possible second round draft slot is something you jump at. Any expert who says different doesn't know s***. The guy is dirt poor with a newborn. Although I am hearing Ginn Sr. is trying to influence him to stay.
  21. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 11:30 AM) Good for him, if I was Urban I would be encouraging him to go, it's the best thing for the kid (clearly he didn't care about school much and has a real opportunity here) all while OSU now gets to say their 3rd string QB can be the 3rd drafted QB, that's a nice recruiting statement. Urban was on board with him going for sure. 3 games a title and maybe a second round draft pick. Crazy.
  22. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 15, 2015 -> 11:25 AM) Cardale Jones just tweeted "Life changing decision at 3PM" Welcome to seven minutes ago. He's going it's done. The guy is dirt poor and came from nothing. It's a no brainer especially when he's been told he's Probably the third QB taken.
  23. Cardale Jones is going pro. Has been told he may be 3rd QB off board.
  24. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 13, 2015 -> 07:29 AM) Start asking everybody you live near/work with where they take their cars. The first place to get mentioned twice is where you go. Yeah, I have a place in DG, Oak park and the west loop from word of mouth.
