QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 17, 2011 -> 07:48 AM) pgammo Peter Gammons Red Sox owners want managerial "experience." Weaver, LaRussa, Anderson, Leyland, Guillen had managed 0 games when hired. What a laugh How the hell do Ozzie and, to a lesser extent, Leyland get lumped in with those guys? It's insulting to the greatest managers of all time.

Penn State horror story
QUOTE (G&T @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 01:14 PM) I worked for a summer in a special victims unit of a DA's office. That's the type of trash that we would get. Some monster would be caught with a kid or talking about meeting a kid, computer confiscated, and all these transcripts of messages like those would be on my desk to sort through. I read very little at that link but it reminds me of exactly how I felt back then. The act is horrific enough, but I always assumed they felt guilty for their actions. They don't. I also assumed pedos were rare. They aren't. That would be why I have no remorse for those who covered this up. How do you mean "rare"? I always assumed they were pretty rare as well, but I never thought of the number. I probably would have said something like roughly a few hundred in a big city. It's something I could never wrap my mind around, and always figured most pedophiles were that way because they were abused or neglected.

QUOTE (The Baconator @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 05:27 PM) I saw Harold and Kumar in 3D last night. Pretty entertaining, pretty much exactly what i expected - gratuitous nudity, coke, NPH being awesome, ridiculousness. I was concerned they were going to be obnoxious with the 3D schtick throughout the movie but it's only over the top for the first few minutes. I think my favorite joke (that apparently went over the heads of everyone in the theater) . Overall, it was as-advertised, though I don't think it was worth the $16 for a 3D movie (especially on a Tuesday night). The second one was awful, so I have no plans on seeing this one.

2011 TV Thread
QUOTE (Disco72 @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 01:50 PM) As soon as they killed Tom Arnold's character, my first thought was exactly this. Like others, I'm glad Opie is finally unleashed; at least, I hope he is. Last night's episode had some good moments, but there's no way it needed to be 90 minutes. I was thinking that at about 1:20.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 10:53 AM) It will be interesting to see what happens with Bobby. I would imagine he goes to prison for a visit and let's the news go down that Tom Arnold is in fact dead, just in time that Otto doesn't sign off on his "stories". Yes, another perfectly-timed plot contrivance. That's definitely what this show would do.

What is your top Buehrle contract
QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 09:48 AM) I actually prefer Buehrle to stay more-so than Konerko when he was in his process, so it's hard to really gauge a value with my head instead of with my heart. If this somehow helps future stud Danks resigns... thanks for everything Mark. You're still waiting for that to happen?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 16, 2011 -> 08:51 AM) 3 yrs - $36 million. And some kind of mutual option for the 4th year. This.

Joel Skinner leader to take over AAA
QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Nov 15, 2011 -> 01:51 PM) Wasn't Gary Ward the guy several ex-Sox players said set them back as players due to his lack of hitting knowledge? He'd certainly fit in with the hires this offseason.

2012 AL Central Catch-All thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 15, 2011 -> 11:18 AM) That's interesting. Everything I had heard made it sound like Oswalt only wanted to play for a contender or he might retire. I realize the Royals have the best farm system this side of Theo, but they still aren't close to major playoff contenders. They'd certainly take a big step in that direction if they land Oswalt, especially if they bring in another good starter as well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 15, 2011 -> 09:01 AM) It's worth asking how a trained psychologist hears about something that made the children "uncomfortable" and then decided to do nothing. Link. There's more to this one. Making $130,000 a year by running a charity? That may be commonplace, but it sounds so wrong.
