Ventura declines extension
QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 17, 2013 -> 01:06 PM) Would you feel better if he said I'm a great manager and will only get better. In two years, when this contract runs out, I'm going to be a free agent and demand being the highest paid manager out there? No no no, then he would be greedy and we would have to get rid of him now before the situation escalates

2012-2013 NCAA Basketball thread
SIU is not good this season, but they are scrappy. They have lost a lot of close games that they should not have even been in. Ultimately their lack of size has really killed them, only having Dantiel Daniels and Davante Drinkard as true big men has really killed them. Especially given the fact that Daniels has been injured a lot this season.

QUOTE (TomSeaverFan @ Feb 16, 2013 -> 01:47 PM) I'd rather have Mark Buehrle on the team than Jake Peavy, that's for sure. i think it would be Danks you are swapping out here, not Peavy

Asteroid hits Russia
I thought it was funny that a russian newspaper claimed that they shot it down. Sure, you guys mobilized fast enough to shoot down a meteor traveling 33,000 MPH that nobody knew was coming.

2013 Spring Training catch all thread
QUOTE (ptatc @ Feb 15, 2013 -> 07:26 PM) He is a good guy and alot of fun. I worked with the Kane County Cougars in the mid-90's and it had him, Josh Beckett, Ryan Dempster, Mike Remond and a few others. It was one of the most fun I ever had working with a team. They had one of those murder mysteries at the ballpark that year and most of them participated. It was an umpire murdered in the dugout. In 1995 a friend of mine worked at Funway in Batavia, and we used to dress up as the Funway mascots and run around KCC Stadium with Ozzie the Cougar. It was brutally hot but we had a lot of fun.

Juanita was MJs family corporate image. She knew it, he knew it. It was an arrangement in which they both profited immensely. "Be like Mike" wouldn't have flied without it. Just think what happened to Tiger when his skeletons came out of the closet.

2013 Video Game Thread
QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 10:09 PM) It is different. Each character has a unique level that you play for them where their skill is needed. The time travelers level almost drove me insane. I know that you are saying. I knew what I was supposed to do with the rock to roll it out of the way so the well would appear, but I wasnt rolling it far enough up to the right. The game is really fun though. The twins level I really enjoyed

NBA/NFL age limits
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 04:19 PM) Ok, so that's a good example of how dumb NBA GM's are. How the owners and the commissioner negotiated with the NBAPA recently isn't. Well, Jenks mentioned the amnesty clause in the most recent CBA being included to relieve GMs of some of their previous stupidity

NBA/NFL age limits
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) NBA GM's don't negotiate with the NBAPA. No, but their Owners do, and I am sure the owners dont like seeing picks and money being wasted on the Leon Smiths of the world

2013 Video Game Thread
QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 01:28 PM) I wish there was a little more story behind the characters. I think when you replay it with different characters the game changes. At least a little bit. I just beat it with the Twins, Knight, and Time Traveler. I missed two cave paintings though, so I want to go back and try it again. It was pretty funny when the Dragon ate the princess and king

NBA/NFL age limits
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 02:36 PM) otoh this works well for big-name, super-star athletes but probably not so well for late-round or UDFA level players. And those are the players that really dont fit into our discussion, because the likelihood of them skipping College for the Pros is pretty slim. Those types of players would probably recognize that going to college would benefit them a lot. Lets be honest here, our discussion pretty much is about Elite high school athletes that everyone recognizes huge potential in.
