Jesus. GTA V looks incredible. It's almost ridiculous that a sports game or rehash CoD cost $59.99, and something that looks that amazing will cost the same.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 16, 2012 -> 09:00 PM) Got tickets today to see Fun. when they come to Ball State. Tickets were $5 each! $5! So excited. The only concert I've ever been to was ....... Lil wayne. UGH. Hate that asshole. That's a steal.

I've never run an OOTP league.

Misrepresentations are hilarious, but I'm so over the entire thing. Again, I'm just glad 9/10 GMs voted to get rid of J4L.

I'm such a sucker. Upon further review, I adore the new Soundgarden album.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Nov 16, 2012 -> 11:13 AM) That sounds good to me.. Ive started Denarius all season long basically and it makes me hate watching the fantasy stat line on sundays. 95% of the game Denarius wont get jack, then you go to the bathroom to drop a deuce in the 4th quarter and come back to see he just got 12 points out of no where. Moore has been one of those guys, along with Jason Witten, that I've had a knack for starting on bad weeks, and benching for his good weeks.

Tell him about the Twinkie.

That's hilarious.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 04:10 PM) People read? In other nudes, should I get a Kindle for Christmas? iPad? Something else? Here's the deal. Nook Tablet HD gives you the ability to expand storage, Kindle Fire HD is out of the box easier to install any app. I've had my original Nook Tablet for 11 months now, and still use it every day. It's great. That being said, the competition in the "smaller tablet" has exploded. If I were shopping today, I'd be looking at the Nexus 7 or 10 (probably 10, I love to use my Nook at the gym and stream HBO Go, Amazon Prime Instant Video, or Netflix and just watch shows. Makes burning the calories no big deal. Then just download the kindle app or the nook app and read your books as if it were a Fire or Nook. No real reason to not get something that out of the box opens you up to the Google Play Market.

Dos! > Uno! Both in Green Day and in value.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 03:46 PM) The overvaluing of Triple Crown is really hard to believe. It's just a set of 3 arbitrary stats that someone decided upon decades ago. It doesn't even account for 3 different set of skills. AVG/HR/SB or OBP/HR/SB would have been a better representation of a complete hitter. Contact/Power/Speed or OnBase/Power/Speed. RBI is too largely dependent on teammates, and they go to closely with HR, IMO. Oh, and, of course the whole DEFENSIVE thing too. +1

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 11:53 AM) Also, cages don't really make a difference on concussions, mainly face injuries. Concussions are caused by the brain hitting the skull. Of course. I will resist the urge to make a really smart-ass comment based on the way you worded the bolded. my point was the cage/chin guard keeps the helmet in place.

Oh s***! Jannero Pargo's a free agent!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 03:09 PM) fixed. I will not carry this over to Soxtalk. You've been replaced, thankfully. Good riddance.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 10:38 AM) Just finished "Ready Player One" by Ernest Cline. As a child of the 80's and a slight geek, this was right in my wheelhouse. There were a couple of references that I didn't quite get because I hadn't played the game or watched the movie but I enjoyed it overall. I recommended that in here quite a few months ago. I adored that book.

A Rockstar game not receiving any recognition here is Max Payne 3. That game was f***ing great.

Finally got to watch The Walking Dead as well. Very good. Homeland was indeed fantastic again. Still need to watch Dexter. There's just not enough time in the day! ESPECIALLY with the Bears on Sunday night.

QUOTE (That funky motion @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 10:09 AM) Helmets are a piece of plastic with a little foam. They really don't offer any protection unless you get the good ones. The problem with the good ones is that they are heavy and the pros don't like em. That and the players never wear the helmets properly. The chin strap always dangles, meaning the helmet just moves around and doesn't protect as it was designed. Compare to NCAA where they have a padded chin, and cage. If the NHL wanted to actually show they cared about concussions, they'd switch to a cage style face mask.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Nov 15, 2012 -> 12:15 AM) How bout that Joakim Noah guy, he looks pretty darn good this year. I acquired him in fantasy and am just rolling with it. Did he have a D-Rose type offseason and completely improve himself? Did he just become the 2nd true star to put next to D-Rose for the next 4-5 seasons? He looks f***ing legit. His addition of an improved jump shot is giving him better passing lanes, so his dimes are up. He is playing an insane 39 mpg, so hopefully that doesn't bite us in the ass. Normally, I'd say something about the Suns giving up mega stats to bigs, but Noah's been doing it against everyone - and beasted against Boston over the weekend. And I love holstering the gun. I think I'll write an article on it.
