That's plenty of reason for me to still be pissed. Did he? Weird. The only thing that made the NBA close to "unwatchable" was our great savior shredding both of his knees. That said, the league's a blast.

Wow, some of the s*** spouted in this thread last night was awful. People love to hate on LeBron. Durant has a few weeks of taking 30 shots per game and now suddenly he's better than LeBron. Get out of here. LeBron could score 40ppg for a season if he really wanted to (and in turn have a team that's not nearly as cohesive and wear himself out).

Interesting. I learned in this thread last night that Kevin Durant has never had any help. His supporting cast when Westbrook is healthy is better than LeBron's. Jesus.

Pretty cool graphics of how the hell they'll keep the ice frozen in Dodger Stadium on Saturday. http://graphics.latimes.com/storyboard-la-...dodger-stadium/

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 12:45 PM) Because the stadium full of millionaires want to have a pleasant experience. Ha. Those dolts knew it would be in new joizey. This is what they get.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 11:37 AM) A Super Bowl on Saturday would be sweet though. True, but you KNOW they'd never proactively move the game. They'll wait until gameday to decide to push it to a day when America is working.

I just find it so hard to understand why the NFL thought putting the Super Bowl in an open air stadium at the beginning of February was a good idea.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:46 AM) The best reply in message board history is "who cares?" in a clearly titled thread. Who cares? You do. You read the title, opened the thread and took the time to reply. That's a damn-good point.

Taser and Sharpie will be in the Puppy Bowl this year. http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/Chica...-241550211.html God, I f***ing hate Blackhawks fans now.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 09:30 AM) Maybe this league... Now that was pure enjoyment.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 08:17 AM) Has goaltending been an issue this season? Why can't Ranta gets some playing time much like Emery did last season? Well, the Blackhawks signed Corey Crawford to a ridiculously terrible contract when he's an average goaltender at best, and now they're stuck throwing him out there for the bulk of playing time at the position. They have a dirt cheap goaltender on the roster with an identical save percentage, but decided Crawford needs to be the third highest paid player on our team behind Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews next season (which coincidentally is the last year that those two SUPERSTARS are under contract before they can test UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENCY). Crawford is signed through his age 36 season (thef***!?!?!) at SIX MILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR. Please, more people in the know, tell me once again how this contract wasn't a f***ing mistake of epic proportions?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 23, 2014 -> 07:58 AM) Do what though? The tank is definitely dead but unfortunately there's still nothing to cheer for. I'm cheering for Jimmy Butler to hit 40% of his shots in a game. He's managed the feat just once in the last 11 games.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 22, 2014 -> 05:26 PM) Speaking of, there's been a lot of press recently about how odd it is NFL athletes have recently been able to cut rehab times in half (see Crabtree, Michael), and even Kobe, known to be an athlete on "cutting edge" of medical science made ridiculous return. Meanwhile we haven't seen these for olympic athletes who have a very strict testing regimen. Derrick Rose really seems to have been on a normal person's recovery time. So, ethically, if you didn't have to know about it, would you have preferred some of the NFL treatments found their way to Rose and we get to watch him play, or prefer that we avoid cheating. I wouldn't care if I did know about it - hgh for all!

Move this f***ing thread to the other forum. Keep this out of White Sox business.

I've been re-watching The Wolf of Wall Street at the gym the past few days. I love this f***ing movie even more the second time through.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 22, 2014 -> 01:02 PM) Phegley has 769 plate appearances in AAA. If he needs more, then the organization may as well just trade him to someone willing to give him a shot. This. If Tyler Flowers is the f***ing starting catcher for the White Sox again, I will f***ing kill someone.

These games happen way too infrequently these days. Hawks. Wings. Can't f***ing wait.

Happy Anniversary, Kobe.
