Penn State horror story
The only issue i see with this is PSU agreed to the 4 year ban on bowl games in negotiations, vs. having the possibility of the death penalty. Had they gone the latter, they would have had their say and their chance at defense. Thus, this seems like BS.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jan 2, 2013 -> 12:08 PM) Watched Veducated and Forks Over Knives on Netflix. Like... literally makes me want to go Veg/Vegan... it's just mind blowing. Everything from essentially curing cancer to big farms throwing live baby chicks into a grinder for cat food. Humans suck. Do it.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 01:51 PM) Avery Johnson...He Gone D-Will force another coach out? More like unrealistic expectations for a roster with sub-par talent just because they are in Brooklyn and have a crazy owner. When your second-best player is a toss-up between Joe Johnson, Brook Lopez, and Gerald Wallace, and Deron is playing gimpy, you have a problem.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 02:26 PM) The bigger concern in my opinion is the health of our bodies, not our minds. A lot of these activities don't involve much exercise (if any) and lead to all sorts of chronic health problems. Well, people should exercise.

Your 2013 Chicago White Sox lineup
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 01:59 PM) The average American League team got a .640 OPS out of its #9 hitters last year. Even the guys from that lineup who had the worst years with the bats last year would be excellent #9 hitters compared to what the average team gets from that spot. The three hitter hit .204 and struck out a s***ton of times.

Things to do on the road.......
QUOTE (juddling @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 02:14 PM) The wife and i were discussing vacation options for us for the upcoming year. I got the idea of going somewhere and watching the Sox on the road. (Other than Tampa Bay once....never been to any other ballpark). I had one city in mind and even though the Sox are only there once (in mid april no less) we are seriously considering going. My question is....other than attending the Sox games...what (if anything) is there to do in Toronto???? Anyone been there before??? Anything to do around the ballpark or in the city???? Of will we be spending most of our time huddled in a hotel just tring to stay warm??? haha Wondering if anyone has personal experience with the city. Have sex with your wife.

Time to revisit the 2nd Amendment?
At least now we can focus on a full ban of handguns AND assault rifles instead of just assault rifles.

LOL, just use "Mecanno" - the tinker toys of the 40s! That's how children will get smart! We wouldn't want them using practical tools such as computers to design things, which is what their future positions will call for, they need to BUILD with metallic tinker toys. Stupid old man just wants to be a kid again.

Old person complains "kids these days" have it easier and are spoiled and didn't walk up hill to school both ways in snow. This is not news, it's just an old, bitter man.

Your 2013 Chicago White Sox lineup
This is going to be brutal. 1. RF Alejandro DeAza 2. 3B Jeff Keppinger (if healthy) 3. DH Adam Done 4. 1B Paul Konerko (is this the year of the massive decline?) 5. CF Alex "every other year" Rios (he's do for an "other" year!) 6. LF Dayan Viciedo 7. SS Alexei Ramirez 8. C Tyler Flowers (at this point he's going to have to start 162 games) 9. 2B Gordon Beckham That might, honestly, be the worst lineup in the AL. We have to expect regression from our best hitter in his age 36 season after watching his OPS+ plummet in the 2nd half of last season.

2012 TV Thread
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 09:01 AM) While I can agree there may be a couple of head scratchers on their list but The League and Sunny on the best of 2012 list? Ha! Mediocre television at best. You can't tell me that as as you were watching Ruxin, Taco, and the boys running around the Cowboys training facility like keystone cops you were thinking "wow, this is some of the best television out there right now!" I thought The League took a pretty huge step backwards this season.

Unless you have a custom signature set up in google, then it won't override. The emails I sent from my Tab 2 this weekend had no extras added.

2012 Films Thread
It's strange that movies now have to be closer to 3 hours than 2 hours. They crank up the price of movie tickets, then cut less (usually unnecessary) film than they used to to give us more bang for our buck, but then they have fewer screenings. I'd rather, except for epic films such as DKR or whatever, they cut this s*** to 2 hours and give me more screening options. On Christmas night, the women of the family were supposed to go see "Les Miserables" while the guys hung out, but the only options were three showings between 6 and 6:30 or three showings between 10 and 11. Strange. A 7:30 or 8 would have been perfect for the group.

2012-2013 Sox off season Catch-All thread
QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 27, 2012 -> 06:51 AM) Later in that same article they mentioned a game where Aaron Cook pitched 6 full innings without a single walk or strikeout--and Adam Dunn was in the lineup. Things like this are what makes baseball great.
