8 ways that 2017 can save or kill the DCEU I don't think the DCEU would be "killed" if 2017 was disappointing critically and financially, but I think a recalibration would happen for sure

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 11, 2017 -> 01:50 PM) As an update, we've decided to move along. The young woman we interviewed is receiving an offer later tonight which she says she's excited to accept. I've decided to pay the current nanny for two weeks upon dismissal. To say this isn't weighing heavily would be an understatement. I'm too emotional a guy, it seems. Thankfully I quit drinking 51 days ago or else I'd really be acting goofy. I'll let y'all know how she takes it. Spoiler alert, she's going to sob and promise she'll do better and not understand it and get angry and sob and sob and sob. Childcare is one of the most stressful things i have had to deal with in my adult life. Me and my wife are counting down the days until our youngest is in school so we can start the both of us working day shifts and stop having to worry about unexpected issues that pop up(ie. our after school sitter took her family to disney this week, which means my wife is going into work an hour late this week every day) Let her sob, you guys are doing the right thing for your family. And giving her 2 weeks "severance" is a really nice thing to do for her, because we both know you dont have to do that

Where is Greg to drop his "anyone but Hillary she is corrupt" post while we all talk about Trump refusing to divest while talking about making deals with Dubai and saying we learned a lot from that hacking

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 06:38 PM) The memo BuzzFeed posted is legit, and it's what intelligence sources presented to Trump's team recently. What's unverified are the specific claims of the British and other intelligence sources, at least unclassified/publicly. e: how? how does this election/Presidency get even more absurd? Well, there is a sex tape out there

Chad Kelly is in this draft, no? I wonder where that brain child is gonna go, seems like he is destined to let his talent flush down the toilet

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Jan 10, 2017 -> 10:35 AM) After signing McPhee one year and drafting Floyd the next this would be a bit of a let down. I get why they would do it, but with the massive investment the Bears have made at the position to see them burn #3 overall on it would be more than worrying. McPhee is gonna be a snap count rotational player for the rest of his career because of his knees. If Garrett gets there, you take him and don't think twice. Especially don't think about McPhee And next year will be McPhees third year as a bear

Sorry, but do not want Watson at 3

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 8, 2017 -> 10:33 PM) Broke my iPhone today. Thought it was completely dead but was able to plug it into my computer and it sees the phone but won't recognize it without putting in the passcode, which I obviously cannot do. Any tips short of fixing the screen? I replaced my 5s screen last year following a YouTube DIY video and it worked fine. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be, cost me 30 bucks.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 01:07 PM) Here's the one I got - it's at Costco for $199. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-HW-K450-Chan...ng+soundbar+450 It throws/simulates realistic surround and sounds great. Big fan. Makes Battlefield 1 sound nuts and works as a great stereo with minimal footprint (I got rid of the monster receiver/speaker set when we moved to our new house). Very, very happy. i walk past the costco soundbar display like a kid walking past his favorite toy at a toy store around christmas time.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 9, 2017 -> 12:53 PM) I also think Chip Kelly only left because he knew Oregon was about to get hit too. Heck, that is probably the only thing that is going to get Saban to leave AL and that is NCAA problems. Did Oregon get hit pretty hard? I missed that

i also think a lot of what keeps Saban in Alabama is total control. I think he realized controlling 18-22 year old kids making zero money is a hell of a lot easier than controlling millionaire men who are the best at what they do. He got his personnel control in Miami and his results were really less than spectacular (to put it mildly) and he decided it wasnt for him And when you bring up Carroll, you really have to wonder if he would have had the nuts to jump to the NFL again if USC hadnt been sanctioned from all of the Bush era nonsense that caught up.

On his most recent podcast, Bill Simmons called Nick Saban a coward for staying in Alabama and "picking on and beating inferior competition" because he wont come to the NFL. He also threw in a few shots "does he hit from the pink tees when he golfs?" and things like that. thoughts?

Most of the guests were there the whole time, I'm pretty sure Bernstein was. He just came on the air in the final hour

Post security briefing Trump: the hacking had no effect on the election. They hacked the DNC because they were dumb and had bad security. They tried to hack the RNC but they are superior and it was fought off bravely. Intel: we have made no assessment.

The Sox have cornered the market on the Geo/Gio Soto's

this show has been amazing though. What a retro throwback

Well, Tyrod Taylor might not be available because Haha oh you Buffalo Bills (he will be available, but the Bills might have to pay him a lot of money to go away)

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 5, 2017 -> 12:10 PM) Yeah, well you can get away with it when you win 4 super bowls, you can't when you say a player with a broken leg is day to day, and multiple players found to be out for season are day to day. It is stupid, they gain nothing, and it hurts the fan experience not even knowing who is going to play. this isn't putting 20 players on questionable when you know all will play, it's putting players on questionable when they are all out for season. So, when your team is good, you are ok with the coach speak bulls***. But when your team sucks, its not ok because you should be totally truthful? So when your team stops sucking(hopefully), then all the sudden you start coach speak and stop telling the truth? it sucks, its all a shell game and when it is obvious what is under the shell you want to smack them, but it is what it is. They all do it. It doesnt hurt the fan experience, it hurts the gambling experience. To that, i give zero f***s.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 5, 2017 -> 11:58 AM) I agree but I do feel need to say I find their obfuscating on injury reports infuriating as a fan and I hope it stops. They've gained no competitive advantage, but have made it look like they don't have a good medical staff. come on man, this is the NFL. they all do that s***

To me, the press conference is irrelevant. If they come out and hang their heads and dont say much, they are crucified. If they come out and beat their chests and say they expect to win and compete, they are crucified. if they come out and talk openly about their deficiencies and what they expect to do, they are crucified. The only thing they didnt do is hang their heads and refuse to talk. THey talked about addressing needs openly, DB, QB, health, skill players, it was all addressed. The only thing that will make these end of season press conferences palatable is winning. There isnt much to say anymore, we all know the drill. We are heading to year three(year 5, post Lovie), this is a big year for the front office and coaching staff.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jan 5, 2017 -> 08:24 AM) I think the bears second and third this year will get it done. Possibly just the Bears first based on how high it is. assuming they trade back, correct?
