QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 07:24 PM) We Bulls fan just never learn. Tiger Woods will date a black girl before the Bulls land Carmelo. I don't think it will happen, but it is fun to hope for. And admittedly it became interesting over the past week, out of nowhere

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 02:09 PM) IIRC your parents' income counts against you when trying to get student loans up until age 25, so she does sort of get f***ed over in that sense. Her parents won't be paying but, because of her parents' income/wealth, she won't be eligible for subsidized loans and grants. One of my parents' friends did something similar with their daughter, or at least the father did. He makes good money ($150k+), she got straight-A's through every step of school, but he refused to pay one penny because his parents didn't pay for his. So instead his wife got a full-time job just to pay for their daughter's school. And it's not like she went to Harvard unsubsidized or something, she went to ISU. edit: my wife's parents didn't pay for any of her school, either, but she had a decent inheritance from an uncle that passed in the 90's that covered most of it. The point is there are many options, and in the end college is optional, not mandatory. Me and you both have no idea what she is eligible for, has applied for, been denied. All we know right now is this girl is saying that her parents owe her college tuition. To that, I disagree

The way I look at it is that she is no longer a minor under their guardianship. Unless they signed some sort of contract guaranteeing that they will pay for her schooling past high school, then they dont owe it to her. I have no idea why they chose not to pay for it, if they are not financially able to do so or if they had a falling out, but she has many options to get her schooling paid for through grants and loans. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) No I already said before that this seems pretty dumb, but there was a lot of talk about how entitled kids are these days, how could they expect this? etc. but then oh by the way my parents paid tens of thousands of dollars for my tuition, room and board. There is so much of the story that is unknown by us though. She could be(and given the nature of this lawsuit, probably is) a total B****, and they might have gotten sick of her act. My dad paid for my schooling, and I was very appreciative of that because I know that he didnt have to do that.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 01:36 PM) Without getting too much business public, this was something discussed, both by the admin/mod staff, and by an admin with Reddy. I don't want to get into personal history or anything, but the staff is comfortable with what was decided. Also, he hasnt been banned. Only suspended

2014-2015 NFL Football thread

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 11:59 AM) With how short careers are in the NFL? Man, you've got your ring, fill your pockets as much as you can before something on your body gives out. True, but I would really be wary about signing a contract with the Oakland Raiders. The ghost of Al Davis still hangs around making things crazy -
QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 7, 2014 -> 06:56 AM) Yeah, if my agent was a string bean I'd be looking to make a change as well. Or, if i started the offseason thinking 4/100 and halfway through spring training I still have no team, then I would change my agent too.

Man, I worked at Baskin Robbins, McDonalds, and Jewel in Batavia before I graduated HS. Worked at Petco during summers off, and a pizza driver at school, as well as flower delivery and a radio station DJ. Menial jobs still paid the bills

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 03:43 PM) I was going to reply with every NBA city. But hopefully you get the point. Carmelo Anthony is an NBA superstar. I think you were pushing it with Milwaukee

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 03:43 PM) Jose Abreu hits home-run, probably only barely over the wall, raises average to pathetic .200 He should get reassigned to the minor league camp

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 03:34 PM) Melo would be a superstar in Chicago IMHO. I agree. And he has that Jumpman contract, im sure Nike wouldnt mind pushing that in the city where Jumpman started

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 10:57 PM) The South Park game is pretty hot. Recommended for any fans of the show. Tons of references and it looks exactly like the show. Every review I have read says that it is buggy as hell and very annoying to play, despite the easter eggs, references, and look

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 12:36 PM) It's wrong, but just based on how Bryce Harper looks now, I want him to get hurt and flame out before he's 30. he is hulked out

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 12:28 PM) I know this is true but also know that I'm going to be convincing myself that there's a chance up until the obvious happens. I cant imagine Melo has really enjoyed his time in new york. He has one good season sandwiched between two mediocre and miserable seasons. I think there is a chance, but Melo will have to want it.

everyone knows it comes to money for Melo. If he feels like he needs the Max, then he needs to accept that he probably wont be winning a championship any time soon.

I just read this morning that if St Louis drops out of the top 25 this week, Wichita St is in line to recieve a 1 seed without having beaten a top 25 team all season -
someone send a notice to all alcoholic establishments in Lacledes Landing that Rowand is on the way

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 08:57 AM) If it turned out to be John Groce himself I would laugh. I was under the impression that this was a rival CPL official or parent.

at what point do you guys think you will have a true read on Groce? End of year 3? -
Finally sat down and watched TD last night. I think this last episode is gonna be crazy, Rust seems like he has a death wish and Marty seems to have accepted that there is a very good chance he isnt gonna make it past whatever happens

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 07:25 AM) There are so many conspiracy theories behind the story, I can't even type them up. Some I kinda believe because of names thrown around. CPL is even dirtier than I thought. Grudges between adults. Kinda pathetic. it 100 percent started out as a grudge, which is a shame. I have a feeling the whistleblower will be outed.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 07:10 AM) Oliver didn't fill out the ISP forms. Stamps bros couldn't get a simple 2.0 GPA. It's a combination of everyone's fault. I know people are sour on Cliff but just covering HS sports, he's the most explosive big man I've seen on the prep level and a blast to watch. Probably won't see someone like him anytime soon. Lots of upsets. Larkin was the favorite in their sectional. The coach sat their star guard as punishment for something and they lost by 1. Oak Park RIver Forest gone as well. If Young loses, may as well give Stevenson the 4A trophy. The way the past few days have gone, Warren should win fri though. From what I heard on the radio yesterday, that is completely on the AD. They mentioned something like Oliver isnt a teacher, only a coach, so he isnt backed by the teachers union, and therefore not able to be in a position to make decisions on any academics(ie. fill out those forms) Mully and Hanley had a HS beat writer on yesterday, I caught bits and pieces of it.

It's a shame they couldn't get him in the show. That would have been epic

That match was awesome
