QUOTE (Boogua @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 07:47 AM) Do you think Weber would have done as well with illinois as Groce did last year? Do you think Weber would have done better at Illinois with the way the roster was constructed for this year? Do you think Weber's Illini would have had a brighter future than what it looks like now? Nobody is butthurt. I think most people dislike Bruce Weber because he took a team that was in the top 5 in the B1G most years and ran them into the ground. Not to mention he tried to blame other people for his failure. Interesting, because this is exactly why Lowery was run out of Carbondale. And SIU fired him with cause, which means they refuse to pay him the rest of his contract(currently in litigation).

Temple lived a long life, RIP

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 11, 2014 -> 07:23 AM) Weber wins KSUS first big 12 title in 30 years and now he's having a great year with a roster that looked like a complete catastrophe coming into the year. He's been an amazing hire for KSU so far and Illini fans sure are butt hurt over it especially with Illinois being awful. I think a lot of the success is due to getting back in bed with Soxtalks other favorite coach Chris Lowery. f*** Lowery. Salukis play WSU tonite, in Wichita. Probably gonna lose big, but hopefully they give them a game.

Mark Henry is the worlds strongest man that's a jobber

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 08:18 PM) Raw is excellent tonight. Glad I started watching tonight. 2 a just awesome matches in the first 1.5 hours. Surprised how over that Cesaro guy is. He has my favorite Indy name ever, Very Mysterious Ice Cream

QUOTE (ptatc @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 06:15 PM) This is true to an extent, it's not the actual checking them out or hitting on them. That won't happen. But it is just like a female in the room while you change and shower. It's not how he acts, it's how comfortable he makes the teammates. From all accounts at Mizzou, he is such an out going and freindly guy that everyone liked him and some even went to gay bars to hang out with him. So if there is such thing as a perfect guy to break the barrier, it sounds like it's him. I understand it isn't how he acts, that's why I found the comments funny. Some guy called in to every show today to make the same bad shower comment. People think he is going to be walking around the locker room trying to convert other players. This will be his profession, not his personal life

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 04:45 PM) That long tracking shot on True Detective was classic. It really was amazing. What a close out to that episode

I would think that Sam would understand it is probably not the best idea to be caught checking out other guys in an NFL locker room Idiots have been calling into B&B making the girl lockerroom comparison, but frankly it isn't even close. If a nfl guy is showering with a bunch of chicks and decides to put the moves on a chick, there is a good chance the chick will have no way to defend herself. Sam would get destroyed

QUOTE (Tex @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 02:06 PM) Really? 634 posts seems like an indicator. Like I said, even if it was to boo. If this happened in his prime, maybe that would be the case. But not for a 38 year old has-been. It isnt like he is must see TV anymore. Now Ryan Braun, he may get some hate tickets

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 02:17 PM) I missed that, gotta be on youtube somewhere. Sorry Steve

Also, the preview and behind the scenes of GoT season 4 got me pretty stoked for the season.

QUOTE (Jake @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 12:37 PM) I honestly think Herm was making a good-faith effort to discuss this, but he was clearly rattled by something--probably the fear of saying something inappropriate, whether intentional or not. I think he was trying to say that the only comparison we can make to this situation is to draftees who have character questions since they also cause teams worry for their effects on the locker room. I dont think he was coming in mean spirited or anything, but come on now, that interview was cringe-inducing. Nobody left that broadcast thinking "That was great!". If you are going to have a polarizing subject interview, at least get someone who can articulate his thoughts better than what we saw. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 12:57 PM) At least ESPN hasn't put Chris Broussard on yet. I was expecting to see that asshole on my tv all day today. SOURCES SAY

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 11:46 AM) "You know who we should bring into this for a question and answer segment? A apparently drunk super religious ex-coach!!"

i liked how Michonnes flashbacks changed from angle to angle. It was all happy and fun, then it started getting darker, then she had her sword, then the guys werent smiling and laughing anymore, and then the world was destroyed and they were dead. It was a quick descent into her mind, i thought it was really well done

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 10, 2014 -> 09:00 AM) Also, I will try and upload it later, but Saturday was America Day. So was Sunday. So is today. In fact, every day is America Day except for July 4th. That's just the day we celebrate our independence from the Brits. post your picture. because, 'Murica

Can Shia Lebeouf please cease being famous so I can stop seeing him making a fool of himself with his plagiarism and attention seeking stunts? just go away

QUOTE (The Baconator @ Feb 9, 2014 -> 10:38 PM) I don't see an alcohol thread started so I'll just add this here. Anyone in here a whiskey drinker? Like, good whiskey? Yesterday I went to a whiskey tasting in Cambridge, MA and had my mind blown. I had looked at the list before going (there were something like 90 varieties to try) and I saw this place Koval from Chicago, figured I would give them the cursory attempt. Turns it's amazing. Like, truly great. For reference, my previous favorites are things like Blanton's, Eagle Rare, and Bulleit. I tried Koval's bourbon, oat, rye, 4 grains, and white rye. There were a bunch of other $60 whiskeys at the tasting, and Koval had 3 of my top 5 I tried all day. It runs about $50 a bottle but totally worth it. I checked out their twitter account and it sounds like they do tastings around downtown Chicago pretty frequently, if you want to try it out before dropping $50. I seriously suggest anyone who enjoys a whiskey to check it out. Great stuff. And after reading through everything I just said, no this is not a paid advertisement haha. I just really love bourbon, and this brand I had never previously heard of has pretty much ruined a lot of other bourbons for me now (and has turned me to rye as well). Look harder, young grasshopper http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=90911

Herm is going to get crushed for it(and rightfully so). And if he really was drunk, he will probably lose his job. Too bad the ESPN showrunner wont lose his job for deciding to put him on

So, Herm Edwards had a great segment on ESPN about Sam

The only thing I know about True Detective is that I don't know s***. What a show

Very brave of him to do this before the draft. That is really taking a chance

QUOTE (onedude @ Feb 9, 2014 -> 07:02 PM) True Detective (with GoT behind the scenes before the episode) and The Walking Dead on tonight. Hoping TWD continues to get have a good season for the second half. Shameless too

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 9, 2014 -> 06:24 PM) There is video of the incident released about an hour ago from the camera Smart ran into on the play. He does get called a piece of crap. And it is his decision to make on whether he wants to be a paying customer to an entertainment event. It's not like he has a contract where he's obligated to go. If someone bans him on top of that fine but it's his decision whether to go or not. It is not really a slam dunk that Orr said only that from that video. It's also kind of weird that he(Orr)put it in quotes in his apology, like he was paraphrasing.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 9, 2014 -> 05:51 PM) If that's true, I take back everything I said. Smart's a moron if this is the case. Yea that's pretty mild to say the least
