QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 01:15 PM) So you agree with me that there's nothing to indicate the coaching staff is the right direction for this team? From what I understand in the philosophy of the rebuilding process, I think he is the right guy for the job. I think he and Hahn are on the same page.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 12:32 PM) There is certainly nothing to indicate that the coaching staff is the right direction for this franchise. The front office may overall be doing a good job but it has nothing to do with Ventura Based on what? They've had jack s*** to work with since he started.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 12:20 PM) I'm left wondering why he took the extension now when he wouldnt' take it after 2012. I think the team is headed in a good direction and its evident from the front office down. I like what they have been doing.

I like it. Good fit for a rebuilding team.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 10:28 AM) I thought AWD means all the time? That's the main difference between the two. 4x4 is either electronically started depending on the situation or manually set. But in both cases power is shifted to all wheels. Whereas awd is basically limited power to all four wheels all the time. Kind of. AWD is usually on all the time as its electronically controlled. Decent article http://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/whats-th...ll-wheel-drive/ Its a little skewed towards "older" 4wd systems as most newer ones are as robust for off roading but are also more intelligent. Mine for example has a switching system that changes the behavior of my system, but its still on all the time. Most AWD systems these days are used in smaller vehicles and cars and generally arent as advanced as what that article explains.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 07:17 AM) I'll post a pic. Iirc we bought the mattress and box spring at Macy's in June. The headboard and sides were bought on-line. I forget where. I'll have her send me a picture. I told her I would rather her not post a craigslist add and have strangers coming to her apartment. Yeah, you can pm me as well. We are interested in adding a bed for our guest room in the basement.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 10:17 AM) I meant that they were, my phone auto corrected AWD to AND because it's sentient. All AWD really means is your FWD car can send power the rear wheels too sometimes. I was agreeing with you.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 01:54 PM) AND is vastly different than 4WD. I love spinning my little RWD Miata around in the snow. Throw the all seasons on (lol) and it basically goes sideways if I even turn the steering wheel Most fun you can have in a car is a footish of snow, an empty parking lot and a Mazda Miata on summer tires. Yes it is actually. AWD is weak in the snow, especially those little SUV's that the dealer convinced females would be great when the weather got bad. Even the new explorer is weaker because they shifted to this type of system.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jan 24, 2014 -> 07:21 AM) The whole impaired driving argument is why I thought the legalization of marijuana wouldn't happen this fast. As we've become stricter and stricter about impaired driving, adding another legal substance to the list of potential causes seemed to run counter to conventional wisdom. And before someone posts that they drive better high than straight then why isn't there a scandal in autoracing calling marijuana a performace enhancing drug? There is no way to drive "better", you may drive a little slower. Its alot easier to drive stoned than drunk though, not even close.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 07:59 PM) Because we're Illinois fans, and this is our life. If he's really that hurt, don't play. This is brutal. Rock, told you you'd be alright. Nobody is a winner tonight. Horrible basketball. Matta clearly doesn't get that this team is only decent when they press full court and run. Play VCU style.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 06:34 PM) What the hell happened to OSU? I get that they didn't really ever beat anyone, but they played MSU tough at home. They actually scored some points in games. This is just brutal. Illinois. Ugh. So limited offensively. The picks are awful. The rolls are awful. Again, just run guys off the ball to set up Ekey and Rice for shots. That's the only chance. Went into a cold streak and never came out. Ross is supremely overrated and judging by the redshirt of Williams, Matta is planning on reloading.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 06:30 PM) So would Dakich still take Craft over any other player in the country? He's your idiot.

We also have an old hand me down self propelled kirby

I went through my third Hoover in 7 years so I jumped for a refurb DC40 for 234 bucks.

What kind of queen bed etc?

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 04:13 PM) Just gives Spartan fans I know an excuse if Michigan wins. Well those are pretty big losses. Of course you could then say McGary.

No Payne no Dawson for MSU vs michigan? Wish we wouldn't have faced Payne.

Wow what a s*** show. Dont feed the troll.

So I folded to m wife's demands and purchased a Dyson vac. Luckily got a refurbished model for about half price. Seems good so far, but really, its a vacuum, how great can it be?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 10:10 AM) This winter has really made me want to move. We were due for a bad one since its been relatively mild the last few years. I THINK ive tackled my frozen pipes issue, lets hope. I simply keep my basement about 20 degrees warmer than before.

You guys forget ChavezTalk.com?

Id hit it.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:35 AM) I had PRP therapy, didn't do s***. It's a very non-clinically proven procedure and they're still trying to figure when it helps and when it doesn't. Thanks for trashing my dreams f***wad.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:41 AM) DUI at 8:30 AM? Solid work. 4am.
