295 dead aboard Malaysian Airlines shot down over Ukraine.
QUOTE (Tex @ Jul 19, 2014 -> 06:43 AM) I'm trying to understand why I and many others view these two types of events so differently. 1. A missal is shot at an airplane and innocent people are killed. 2. A missal is shot at a military target in a city and "collateral damage" occurs. In other words innocent people are killed. It seems fair to me to assume that whomever shot at that plane thought they were shooting at a military target making the Malaysian flight "collateral damage". I'm not saying we shouldn't be outraged, sad, and all the emotions we are feeling over this tragedy, but perhaps we should have a bit more outrage at "collateral damage"? How often did we shoot missals in Iraq and other countries knowing their would be "collateral damage"? I saw a map of the routes that different airlines were taking through that region. Some continued to fly over that airspace other avoided it. What possible reasons could you have to fly over the Ukraine? I'm guessing the answer will concern fuel costs. Supposedly they were routing around bad weather

Ozzie wants back in Sox family
Ozzie can do no wrong to Greg. It's all Cowleys fault that Ozzie is basically angling for Robins job

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 18, 2014 -> 02:20 PM) offense still stands around and watches rose, bad offball movement, only one player who can create off the dribble, and the worst spacing in the league. We hope that's fixed, but we don't know. We are 2 months removed from scoring 68 points in a playoff game. This is just guessing. This is a different team, the squad that steps on the floor in a few months is going to be quite different than that playoff team- 2014-2015 NBA thread
I just want to say after listening to Pau and Nikos press conference, Spanish newspaper reporters are hilarious "Hi, i am from (spanish newspaper name), Welcome to Chicago! I want to know what you feel about Brazils national soccer team?"- Brady Aiken DID NOT SIGN

I bet Krush has a very identifiable strike and out call. We have an awesome ump at AH, an older black guy who has a rollie fingers curly mustache. He yells "THAT....IS A STRIKE" and points in the air when he calls a strike, and does an emphatic out call on the bases. And he is a really good active ump, so his antics dont really rub people the wrong way- 2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 18, 2014 -> 09:13 AM) Aaron Brooks is a competent backup imo.....but then again imo so is Kirk. Yea but contingency plans must be made for the times that Kirks left calf breaks or he breaks a pinky bone- The Curious Case of Mark Buehrle

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 07:03 PM) Draft picks are always valuable. Lol. Well then why didn't the Lakers trade for the valuable picks?- 2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 06:57 PM) To get picks. Bulls picks really aren't valuable going forward. Maybe the Sacramento pick if it breaks right. And even then, the Lakers aren't exactly a draft savvy organization- 2014-2015 NBA thread
The worst part is everyone knew he would be amnestied, so honestly why would the lakers sign and trade Pau for the contract, expiring or not? They waited him out and got him for peanuts- 2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 06:25 PM) He gets all his money. Yea the bulls are gonna pay the difference. Carlos is getting 16+ this year regardless. If he went to an open market I highly doubt he would get more- Dylan Axelrod traded to Reds.
Im just glad to know that I dont have to dread his call up anymore. Heath was a friggin organizational pinball- 2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Boogua @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 09:14 AM) Mo Williams is probably a lot better than you think. I'd love him as a backup guard. He's also a guy you can play off the ball with d rose on the ball because he's a pretty good 3 point shooter. Im not saying he is bad, I just cant remember the last time I saw either of those guys playing- Matt Kemp?
QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jul 17, 2014 -> 09:11 AM) Because he would fit a need perfectly. An OF of Pederson, Eaton, and Garcia is cheap and has a ton of upside to contribute to the offensive core for the next 5 years. anytime a trade partner is mentioned, finding one of their top prospects and saying "I just want this guy" is funny. Of course that OF would have a bunch of upside, but in a thread where we are talking about the Dodgers wanting to unload a highly paid poorly performing outfielder, why would you mention that you want their affordable up and coming prospect. It is just silly- Matt Kemp?
I like how everytime the Dodgers are mentioned as a trade partner for anything, inevitably people post "I just want Joc Pederson".- 2014-2015 NBA thread
I didnt know Booby Gibson and Mo Williams were still in the league. I thought they faded out when Lebron left cleveland in 2010 - July 18 Game thread White Sox vs Astros
