Damn this NCAA basketball discussion.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 06:37 PM) I demand a non-comcast Illinois IP addy... Please tell me the guy was not posting random pics from the internet and claiming they were his just to act like he was at some Super Bowl he's not at on some random website. This would explain his posting on Soxtalk "from the NFC Championship Game" when data and wifi access would be nearly impossible due to all the connections. Please, please tell me that there isn't someone out there who would go to the trouble to convince a bunch of strangers he did all of these things. Actually, please tell me it's true. Also, not that I want them, but I think this lends credibility to my "never received Sox tickets" point that I like to make every now and then. Too funny.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 1, 2013 -> 08:11 AM) A while back, a bunch of the 49ers players participated in one of the "It gets better" anti-LGBT-bullying videos. After their gay bashing CB came out, they were asked about that video by the USA Today, and 2 of the players in it denied ever participating or claimed they didn't know what they were doing or claimed it was just a generic anti-bullying video. F*** it. Go Ravens. Jesus, go Ravens.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 04:00 PM) Alright Mhizzle....I've just blasted our membership base for you. I believe it is only the 4th time I've ever done it. spammer!

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 01:43 PM) As Steve said, I have no problem with this. The more the merrier. Thanks for putting it on the blog. And obviously I voted.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 01:11 PM) Mhizzle is it okay if I tweet this with the Flapship blog and encourage people to vote for you? I'm certain he doesn't mind. Tweet away.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 12:50 PM) Come on guys, give SOXOBAMA a break. So he's all giddy about his team's chances at winning the SuperBowl, is that so bad? If the Bears were in the SuperBowl right now, we all would be posting stuff like he is. Don't take it so seriously, sheeeeeeesh If the Bears were in the Super Bowl, I would never post that they were going to win it, because I would just be waiting for something awful to happen.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 12:38 PM) And that was a good previous question, WTF are you doing on Soxtalk arguing when you are in New Orleans. ... and I have to imagine there's a website out there solely dedicated to the 49ers. I love Super Bowl discussion, but clicking this thread and reading a post like "this weekend the 49ers WILL WIN THE SUPERBOWL" is just annoying as hell. It adds nothing to the conversation.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 12:31 PM) You mean like when he put up the best season of his career in the 2nd to last year of his career? Exactly. Packer fans are so spoiled. I'd take a baby Favre over a baby Rodgers anyday.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 12:30 PM) I give two s***s if he likes the Niners or not. I told anyone on this site back in feb, that the 49ers would win the SB. You also said it in 2011.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 12:20 PM) Your team looked bad against the Niners twice this season. Your team couldn't beat the Rams. Twice.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 11:59 AM) Minus the playoff game vs the 49ers, the Packers defense was solid this year. They were better this year then last year and I expect them to better next year. Who cares about a running game. It's a passing league. Besides that, the Packers running game got better as the year went on. They also had to use 6 running backs because of injury. Driver did nothing this year and Jennings was hurt most of the year. Rodgers still threw 39 touchdowns. Maybe if Favre played in an era where you couldn't play defense against wide receivers he'd have shown better?

Rayman Jungle Run is an awesome, awesome game on the tablet. The graphics, music, and gameplay are top-notch. Here's a screen I grabbed while playing just now.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 31, 2013 -> 09:59 AM) I have no idea what the 80s looked like. I thought they were making Keri Russel look like Kelly from Saved By the Bell. Obviously that doesnt make a lot of sense as that was the very end of the 80s, not 1980. mmmm, Kelly Kapowski

Sources tell ESPN's Marc Stein that the Grizzlies and Raptors have a trade in place that would send Rudy Gay and Hamed Haddadi to Toronto in exchange for Ed Davis and Jose Calderon. The Grizzlies plan to flip Calderon to a third team, with the Pistons and Mavericks at the front of the line, possibly sending Tayshaun Prince, Corey Maggette or Vince Carter to Memphis in return for Calderon. Gay's value should go up since he'll be the primary option in Toronto, with Kyle Lowry also getting a boost since he'll no longer be sharing time. This also means that guys like DeMar DeRozan and Alan Anderson could take a hit, while the loss of Davis will also help with the log jam of bigs in Toronto. However they will now have Haddadi to add to the mix of Amir Johnson, Aaron Gray, Jonas Valanciunas and Andrea Bargnani once everyone is healthy. Calderon's value depends on where he lands, but Detroit (Brandon Knight) and Dallas (Darren Collison) both look like timeshare situations, which is not great news for his owners. And Davis' value just took a major hit since he'll be playing behind Zach Randolph.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 04:29 PM) To answer the question from the movie thread, I am giving "The Americans" a try. It got an A from EW, it looks awesome.

No thanks. He's an idiot and we already watched that once with Manny.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 02:33 PM) Rose comes back, scores 40 a game with 15 assists and 10 rebounds on 70% shooting. Wins MVP. That is in the process of happening in my 2k13 season. I held him out until mid January - averaging 47 ppg, 17 dimes. Back to things people give a s*** about...

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 02:30 PM) JUST TRUST HIM I only report fact - thank you.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 11:30 AM) Tennessee's "Don't Say Gay" bill now includes a provision that requires parents of gay children to notify the school that their child is gay. Headscratcher. They should secede.

I love everyone hating on SOXOBAMA for going to a bunch of events. Let the dude have his fun - he clearly isn't on Facebook to brag about these things so Soxtalk is his outlet.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 09:55 AM) Blackberry 10 launched today. I'm due for a new phone and absolutely loved my Curve, so I want to do my due diligence and check this phone out. It looks really good and I've heard nothing but good things about it, so I'm extremely interested. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 30, 2013 -> 09:57 AM) And now it's Blackberry who makes the Blackberry 10, not Research in Motion LOL. Blackberry. The Curve is a piece of s***.
