Rosenthal: Tanaka to Yankees
Is this the most boring speculation thread ever? I seriously can't get through more than 2 or 3 posts every time I open it.

The Humility thread
QUOTE (The Ultimate Champion @ Jan 17, 2014 -> 12:16 PM) Let's go back and remember all these "AJ's OPS is so easy to replace" arguments where posters put forth the idea that Flowers would be a better player than AJ and blah blah blah it would all happen so quick. I really want to point that one out because that was really dumb and lasted for a while. Not as bad as the Dan Hudson love fest though. I was one of those. Flowers was playing with a torn up shoulder though. I'm still not conceding. My worst rant was on WSI. I was irate when we traded Reed and Olivo for Garcia. I thought Reed and Olivo were future All Stars. I must have called Garcia a "fat drunk" 5 times in that thread. I'm actually surprised they didn't ban me.

Bobby Jenks wants to make a comeback
Did he make any money from the botched surgery with the Red Sox?

2014 TV thread
I think True Detective is going to be very good. I really like the tone. Matthew McConaughey has become a tremendous actor.

Rick Hahn approval poll
Pods wasn't moved CF because of his arm. He was moved because he was an absolutely awful fielder. Honestly, he was one of the worst full time CF's I've seen.

Garcia and Abreu. New blood.

Rick Hahn approval poll
Seems kind of pointless, tbh. I don't think anyone disapproves of the job Hahn's done.

*Official* Work Out Thread
I just started P90X3 as well. I appreciate the half hour format, but the workouts are definitely a lot easier. If you haven't done any of the previous work outs, the learning curve is pretty steep. They don't give you much guidance. If you've never done Yoga, you're going to have a hell of a time keeping up. I'll stick with it because I'm so sick of the others, but I don't think I'll get as good of results. That should be obvious though the workouts are half the time.

Movies Based on Books
QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 9, 2014 -> 03:31 PM) And almost totally different, right? Like Forrest talking to cartoon characters. As awesome as American Psycho the movie is, the book is insanely violent. Yeah, the book is pretty strange. He has a pet gorilla and becomes a pro wrestler. I haven't read it for at least 10 years, but I remember it being bizarre.

Moving from iOS back to Android has been so pleasant.

Movies Based on Books
Surprised nobody mentioned Forrest Gump. The movie is much better than the book.

Hahn's next move?
I'm not into giving 1-3 starters up for catchers. Most highly rated catcher prospects are there because they can hit, but rarely are good defensively and rarely stick at C. I'd rather have a veteran/defense first catcher and you don't need to give up a starter to get one.

Astros C Jason Castro
I wouldn't consider Quintana for Castro straight up.

Technology catch-all thread
I'm picking up the S4 Active today. I can't wait to get rid of my iPhone 4. It's been a miserable experience.

It's cold outside
I'm co-owner of a courier service, but still bike. We were out there today, but I just shut down our loop service. My toughest bikers were starting to break and a couple of those guys are bad motherf***ers. I've been a messenger for a while and I don't ever remember it being this cold. That wind is just brutal.

Eaton called selfish by ex-teammate
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 2, 2014 -> 03:49 PM) Sez the guy clicking and posting in the thread.... I didn't comment in the Garcia thread, but 2 TMZ threads on the front page were too much.

This and the Garia affair thread are awful. Who gives a f***?

Lone Survivor... I cried... Like 4 times. I'm a sucker for war movies.

2013 Films Thread
I thought Elysium was terrible. Maybe Foster's worst performance.

2013 Films Thread
I'm not going to get sanctimonious and pretend that I don't torrent movies, but I also expect that everyone here can use a search engine.

2013 Films Thread
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 29, 2013 -> 10:55 PM) I don't know how letting people know what movies are available online now is trying to sound "cool" in any way. That's just stupid. I'm being helpful. You are better than me, so just ignore it and let others enjoy it. Anyway, American Hustle is now up as well.

MMA Thread
Rousey and Cyborg will never happen. They're in different weight classes and the UFC doesn't do catch weight fights. Why would the UFC pay Lesnar? He's a bad fighter with a glass jaw.

NBA Thread 2013-2014
QUOTE (scs787 @ Dec 26, 2013 -> 04:00 PM) A little late, but Bobcats SF Jeff Taylor is out for the year.....Make the Deng for Gordon trade MJ! (assuming they can't get a 1st rounder elsewhere) A Rose/Gordon back court would set defensive basketball back 50 years.

Rosenthal: Tanaka to Yankees
That's a lot of money to pay for a prospect.
