QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 09:49 PM) Sandoval's making himself some bank with this postseason. IIRC Sandoval is pretty much money in every postseason he has participated in. He destroyed Verlander all by himself a few years ago

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 07:20 PM) Time to revoke the Big Game James nickname. Maybe it is "Pitching in"Big Game James as opposed to "having a"Big Game James. Because he does pitch in a lot of big games.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 02:29 PM) (would they eventually work their way up to a ban if they were caught like 9 times?) that would be a hilarious test case.

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 02:22 PM) now i got you thinking, take the rose example out of this discussion. we are discussing cheating. whether it is scuffing the ball and going to all length to hide it and some one on PED and going to all length of hiding it. it is still cheating. No, you got me disagreeing that they are similar situations, because they are not. Betting on baseball isnt necessarily cheating, but it could be. Regardless, it is a banishment level offense, and everyone in the game knows this. If you are gambling, then you could be throwing games in order to win money, this is something that is controllable by the gambler, ESPECIALLY someone like Rose who was managing the game. Taking a steroid or scuffing a ball to win a game is increasing your chances, but you arent in total control of the outcome, a hitter can still get you, a pitcher can still strike you out. And banning someone for scuffing a ball is just silly.

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 02:17 PM) different level of cheating. how can 1 come up with an excuse for 1 example of a cheat and let the others go by. it has to be 1 penalty. plain and simple. there is no degrees of interpretation. So you think a guy who scuffed a ball in order to get a little more movement on his curve should be assessed the same penalty as a guy who very clearly could have thrown games by intentionally mismanaging them in order to win a wager?

QUOTE (LDF @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 02:06 PM) no there is line of judgment in this. the point is, this pitcher is cheating and going to great length to cheat. so what is the difference between this pitcher and those with the PED not with Rose and his banned for life. did the pitcher bet on the game that he plays(and coaches)? Because that is quite a difference edit: I think i read your comparison right. But now im not sure. Either way I have no idea how Rose is in this equation

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 01:20 PM) That's exactly why I don't think it matters. I can't write my name on those properly anyway...and the companies have to know that almost nobody can, so the signatures won't match either way. So my response to these signatures is stop wasting my time with signatures...this isn't 1975. Chip/pin is necessary today, signatures are NOT a valid form of security, nor were they ever. Lets just say it has its uses, and leave it at that.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 01:09 PM) A lot of the older e-sign devices don't even work anymore. All you can do is scribble a big blob because the screen is so worn out. yea a lot of them are totally worthless that way, or they are new and hypersensitive

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 12:58 PM) Haha, this is funny, I haven't signed my name correctly in about 5 years now. I literally put 2 squiggly lines and have yet to have anyone say anything or have a credit card company call about it. We wouldnt say anything unless your card was physically stolen and used. At that point, it becomes not funny.

So, rumor is Zach Snyders Robin will be Jena Malone. So, yea. Lets go Avengers 2

QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 21, 2014 -> 06:34 AM) You should be more worried about the existence of the credit card for security. President Obama recently signed some sort of legislation/order that will require the tech on these credit cards to change because of the ease with which bad people can steal your info from them. He is trying to force merchants into chip and pin, like the rest of the world is using. This is good. US merchants are resisting because nobody wants to pay for the upgrade in systems. Believe me, we want this.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 02:12 PM) Tyreese needs to get over that s***, like yesterday.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 02:12 PM) I think it was INTs then. Because I remember them keep bringing the stat up that he went 4 straight games without an INT. I think Jay had gone his longest stretch without turning the ball over(in any capacity) going into the Packers game. But there has been no 4 game stretch this season without a turnover(int or fumble)

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 01:54 PM) Can you imagine what Rodgers would do if he had Marshall, Jeffrey, Bennett and Forte as his weapons? Downright scary... Let's all just admit it, Jay is a mediocre QB, at times brilliant and at other times disastrous. That is the very definition of mediocrity. It's getting to the point where I'd like to see what Trestman could do with someone else. Jay finally has an offensive line, a pair of great WRs, a big solid TE and probably the best all around RB in the league and the Bears could only muster 14 pts at home with the usual idiotic turnovers. NO MORE EXCUSES. Yea this is great and all but it is wishful thinking THREE MORE YEARS. Contract. It is what it is, Bears aren't cutting Jay and his 56 Mil guaranteed so strap in and either close your eyes or enjoy the ride

TWD with another good episode.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 01:22 PM) Didn't he also not have any through the 1st four games? If so, that's even worse. Sexy Rexy could probably do better in this offense. No, in each loss he had at least two turnovers, in each win he had none

Particle Man disagrees

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 11:17 AM) And let's not forget that the Rangers declined Alex Rios' option. That is a man this team needs - Rios. Yes, i would love to have this ultimate tease/offensive Javy Vasquez back on the team. "LOOK AT THE TALENT, FORGET THE NUMBERS"

Final chance at softball glory tonite, playoffs in Hoffman Estates at 630. Last thursday we lost in the second round, won our first game 18-9 and lost the second game 6-3. I felt good though, I was 6/7 with 2 doubles and 5 RBI

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 09:00 AM) Yeah but how was his run blocking? He missed a key block downfield for Jordy Nelson after he threw him the ball

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 06:20 AM) Tom Hardy maybe cast as a villian in X-men: Apocalypse. Not sure how I feel about that. On one hand, he's awesome. The other, he was Bane. Given Apocalypse size in the comics, i think we are getting a Mo-cap performance voiced by Hardy. Kind of like how Mark Ruffalo is the Hulk, but, mostly a good CGI performance. I wouldnt worry too much about a tracheotomy voice box

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Oct 20, 2014 -> 08:22 AM) We had an early morning earthquake here a few years back. The cats started flipping out a full 10-15 seconds before the shaking started. It's the only reason my wife was awake to feel it because the cats sleep on her and they woke her up. We also had a small one, that originated very close to where I live. My wife was pregnant with my middle son Jakob, and she woke me up and said he was really active and going nuts, next thing i know, the house shook

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 08:30 PM) How bad did Jimmy's injury look? You could hear the ball pop his fingers, he grabbed his hand immediately

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 19, 2014 -> 02:35 PM) Worrisome part should be that those 2 are back now, their OL is getting back together, and their offense is just as weak, if not worse. Mills has been bad, he needs to be removed from the equation. The rest of the offense has no excuses

I see this is that game where we all go "haha this turf sucks hardcore"
