Steubenville Rape Case
QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 08:24 PM) I applaud the verdict. I understand and agree that victims can be too drunk to consent, therefor are not responsible for their actions. Should we also have some compassion for people who are too drunk to understand the implications of their actions? No

2013 Win-Loss Prediction Thread - Annual and Official
I would rather watch the Yankees wallow in the cellar in their high priced misery. Besides, I am still sore at them for the paltry return they gave for Swisher. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 08:12 PM) The same as trading Ramirez. Season over. And the fact is, the Yankees want nothing to do with Dunn long-term, either. They've already got to pay A-Rod and TEX a boatload of money. Mostly importantly, they have Boesch, Granderson, Gardner, Ichiro and Travis Hafner to give AB's to still. There's plenty of LH bats in there. They would only be on the hook for him for another 2 years, that isnt really long term. But again, F*** the yankees. Let them pay the luxury tax on last place.

2013 Films Thread
QUOTE (farmteam @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 06:28 PM) Watched 21 Jump Street last night. Pretty funny. Really dug the cameo by the original duo. The one guy pulled off his disguise and I thought, "Oh wait a minute, that's Johnny Depp." That means I saw three movies in the past week (Chasing Amy, Mississippi Burning and 21 Jump Street) for the first time. That's a lot for me. Holly Robinson was the cop that gave them their car

Steubenville Rape Case
QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 12:11 PM) I don't blame the girl at all in all of this, but it seems like young people don't know how to drink. The goal shouldn't be to get black out drunk. Bad things happen. Cautionary tale. Kids are dumb. I certainly didnt know the difference between moderation and blackout drunk when I was 16

ST: 3/16 vs Oakland- Sale starts
QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 16, 2013 -> 04:58 PM) Not good results for Sale today, but he was close to 90 pitches. Two more spring starts. Maybe he was working on a specific pitch

Suddenly night has become more difficult. And I'm already using up all my red shirts on IU games! Well at least Steve didn't buy a billboard this time

2013-2014 NFL Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 16, 2013 -> 10:06 AM) He also has a running game now though. That said, a regression from 36 receptions and 366 yards is fairly difficult to do. I think the question isn't "will he regress". I think the question is "will he remain healthy?" The last few years have not been kind to Jennings, a lot of nagging injuries. 8 games(or more) on that turf isn't going to make it better

2013-2014 NFL Thread
QUOTE (Jake @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 09:00 PM) For those who care about PFF, Roach wasn't looked upon fondly by them -- on the other hand, Urlacher last year was rated HORRIBLY. Might have been the worst rated player on the defense IIRC. Roach was closer to a neutral impact. Right, IMO he is just a guy, not someone you should be slotting in to replace Urlacher. It's starting to look like this draft will be reloading the LB corps

2013-2014 NFL Thread
QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 07:55 PM) For what its worth when he took over last year he was on a pace for 114 tackles over a full season vs the 90 Urlacher was on pace for. In Lovies defense the MLB makes a lot of tackles, it is what it is. He was a decent player but just a guy. It's kind of sad that you are comparing his production to a one legged Urlacher as if that is a good thing.

Roach is just a guy, nothing to get worked up over. Certainly not someone to think of as Urlachers replacement

Alexei called most underrated SS in AL
QUOTE (Marty34 @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 05:36 PM) A team would rather pay Drew $9.5M than trade for Ramirez and pay him $27M. That is assuming that the White Sox attempted to trade him to the Red Sox and the Red Sox said no and then went on to sign Drew. That is quite a leap in logic. Just because you want the White Sox to trade Ramirez does not mean the White Sox want to trade Ramirez.

2013 Video Game Thread
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 12:48 PM) Right now, the new 3D Mario platformer and Mario Kart game will make or break them IMO. They can't just be rehashes like 2D Mario sequels become. They need new and unique features that blow people away, sort of like Mario Galaxy did when it first came out. The problem is that those games probably won't come out until the fall or holidays. At that point the Xbox 720 & PS4 will be right around the corner and you'll have a hard time convincing people to buy a Wii U. They need some big games soon and I just don't see them. The games you mentioned may all be solid, but I don't expect any of them to big sellers or move systems. Hopefully they have surprises at E3, because god only knows that all their studios are working on. Retro Studios in particular better have a big announcement. Really though, how many times has this been said about Nintendo? They just keep plugging along, making sales. I make no excuses, I love Nintendo games. I grew up on Mario, Zelda, Metroid. Those are the games I want to play, I appreciate them, all iterations(except maybe Metroid Other M). I said a few months ago, I think Nintendo and Sony and XBox are all kind of doing their own thing anymore. They compete with each other, but Nintendo just does not give a s*** about what those two do, for good or bad. Another game just announced is that Pokemon Rumble WiiU game, that makes use of figurines like Skylanders, except you dont have to get that little pad to set them on, they make use of the NFC connection in the gamepad. Pokemon usually is a big win for Nintendo, they do very well with those games. But the there is no way around it, this launch has been extremely dissapointing in the game department.
