Once he calls him out in the tag, this shouldn't be reviewable. Play was called dead

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 07:44 PM) ESPN is showing Cowboys practice. The NFL is unstoppable. 10 thousand fans per day drive 1 hour south to a town that has absolutely nothing going on to watch the bears practice from 100+ yards away (I am guilty of having done this myself). If it was broadcast with decent commentary (Thayer and joniak sprinked in with brad biggs or zaidman perhaps) I'd totally tune in. like you said, the NFL is a machine

2015 White Sox offense - Historically bad
daa84 replied to ChiliIrishHammock24's topic in Pale Hose Talk
even assuming 30 teams every year (which is an enormous over-estimate), 30 x 115 doesn't even come close to tens of thousands that said - yeah this years sox team is god awful -
how long is this Carlos Sanchez thing really gonna last

just my opinion, but I don't think there's a chance impractical jokers is real. I also don't think the vast majority of what many people think of as "reality TV" is real either

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 02:52 PM) Did you see the item about the guy who was put under anaesthesia for his colonoscopy? He secretly recorded the session on his i phone and discovered the doctor was mocking him, making rude remarks and jokes and generally abusing him verbally while he was under anaesthesia. It has made me wonder about the behavior of medical personnel nowadays. To any of you in the business ... is this commonplace with renegade doctors/anaestehsiologists? Do they mock patients all the time while they are under? Are doctors and nurses giving their best efforts during our heart surgeries and other operations or do they mess with patients all the time?? I have a buddy who just had a double bypass. He was intense pain a day after surgery. His son asked the surgeon assistant, "My dad wonders why the pain medication isn't working well." The assistant said, "He has no pain medication; he didn't ask for it." The son angrily said, "He's asking for it now." They didn't even ask him if he was in pain and wanted medication. Is this common? He also said the nurses did not offer to clean him up with a sponge shower until the son asked. The man had all this surgical goop on him, etc. Also the son said they were moving him around too forcibly, his dad in obvious pain. I know paying for medical care is an issue and through the roof, but what about the PERFORMANCE of doctors and nurses. Is it good in America and in your hospitals or shoddy? Is abuse/joking about people going on while they are under? Like everything else, there is good medical care and there is bad medical care. This means good MDs, bad MDs, good nurses , bad nurses, etc. As far as the pain meds go, narcotics are often ordered prn (as needed), as scheduling them is more prone to complication. Like most medical errors, it seems like poor communication lead to this mixup as the patient didn't know he could ask for some In regards to the anesthesia part, the recent story is certainly an extreme example. To answer your question of do patients get mocked while under? I can't say I have t seen it. It's nothing like this story, but I've witnessed smaller things. For example, when positioning an obese patient prior to surgery, I've seen some make comments regarding their weight, ie "God this guy weighs a ton" things like that. Nothing too harmful, but probably not something you'd say if the patient was conscious. In general, I don't feel there is any abuse or malpractice In the things I've seen. To answer your question regarding if doctors and nurses give their best efforts, I can truly say that during a procedure, I have never thought that the one performing the procedure was giving it anythin less than their best. Simply, too much is at stake. Now post-op care, answering patient questions, clinic visits, etc - yes plenty of people give less than what they should

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 22, 2015 -> 09:28 PM) Fulmer just hit 95 on pitch 103 Then a nasty breaking ball down. As a Vandy and Sox fan I absolutely love this
-
fulmer consistently 95 in the first. Fell behind first two guys. Needs strike 1 more consistently
-
to think that this franchise was voted the worst in ALL of sports like 8 years ago is unfathomable
-
what a finish. Kendall walks em off with a 2 R HR and takes fulmer off the hook.
-
eshelman sitting 88 and guys are way behind. Lotta cunning and guile. Hawk would love this
-
at the game right now. Dansby is a stud
-
if the Hawks win, where does Toews rank on the list of all time Chicago athletes? Is it number 3 already? He's only 27 and I think he has a decent argument for #3
-
the Lightning are tremendous on the forecheck
-
its just a joke that the coaching staff wont pitch Robertson unless its the 9th

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 10:50 PM) I can't believe what I am witnessing. The Cavs could/should be up 3-0 against arguably the best team we've seen in 19 years with LeBron and absolute bums/scrubs. I still can't bring myself to think the Cavs can win this series. But they're two wins away with their belief/confidence soaring by the minute. We'll see what happens. But you LeBron haters (omg the decision!!!) better prepare to stay off the internet/social media/etc... LeBron is two wins away from being at minimum co-GOAT. You are calling him the co-goat, yet you can't believe it? That seems counter-intuitive
-
GSW in serious trouble. Though cavs have played about as well as they can, and golden state quite poorly - cavs have barely squeaked the 2 out. Still Lebron for sure will win the cavs at minimum 1 more

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 10:38 PM) Ok, they replayed it. LeBron can slide tackle now. Aight. And get praised for it. There's just a different set of rules for him

QUOTE (VAfan @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 07:30 AM) Roy Oswalt. 6' 190. Discuss. ive watched a lot of fulmer. probably 70% of the pitches he's thrown in college. This is a great comp. the best ive seen. Assuming he hits his potential of course. 93-95 fastball with late life. Big overhand curve ball- similar body. neither have clean deliveries -

Fulmer is not the sure thing Rodon was IMO. I would put a more realistic expectation of early to mid 2017 on his time frame as a starter. Maybe end of 2016 as a reliever. -

fulmer is not without flaws and risks. But big time upside IMO. Ultra competitor. Makes me very happy as a fan of both teams. -
