QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 28, 2013 -> 11:25 AM) If Lebron wants to complain about the refs not giving him calls all season long, why does he wait until after a big, near-historic loss to make that complaint? Because that's just the kind of chick he is.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Mar 27, 2013 -> 04:29 PM) Ex Bulls center Tom Boerwinkle dead at 67. I remember him when I was a kid playing with SLoan, Van Lier, Chet Walker and Bob Love. The team was very good but the Lakers always beat them in the playoffs. RIP and condolences to his friends and family. Boerwinkle was a great passer from the high post. I just saw this. Makes me very sad. In an era of Lew Alcindor, Nate Thurmond, Wes Unseld, Dave Cowens, to name a few, the Bulls had Tom Boerwinkle. He'd never be thought of when anyone thinks of the best centers of the 70's, but he was pretty damn good. Like you mentioned, a great passer and also pretty damn good defensively and a tenacious rebounder. He still holds the team record of 37 rebounds in a game. That may never be broken. His five career triple-doubles ranks him third in Bulls history behind MJ and Pippen. He’s second in Bulls career rebounds (5,745), fifth in games played (635) and seventh in assists (2,007). Bob Love was quoted as saying he cried all day when he heard about Boerwinkle's death.

QUOTE (floridafan @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 08:00 AM) Minor League Games? Do they play games too? Lol! Yes, I probably will spend some time watching the minor league fields! I will be happy to report the positive aspects of what I see! Just outside San Antonio now... Left Florida at 2:30 yesterday, and have not stopped yet, other than for gas! I love road trips, especially when they lead to spring training. Have a blast!

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Mar 12, 2013 -> 09:37 AM) "The Following" has really jumped the shark, although Kevin Bacon tosses out a few good one-liners each week. Pretty sad to jump the shark in the first season.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 11, 2013 -> 04:50 PM) Touché, but Bates Motel is a prequel series, while Sherlock is just updated version. Yeah, I guess Bates Motel is much more of a reboot than a true to the original prequel. But I'm ok with that. This looks like it could be pretty good anyway, just not what older fans of Psycho like myself thought it might be. Clearly, this is a Norman for a new generation.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Mar 7, 2013 -> 02:11 PM) My second all time favorite guitarist. Nobody could play like Alvin and I mean nobody. Listen to the album "Ssssh" and you'll know what I mean. One of my main inspirations to start playing guitar. I loved the Ssssh album but I think my favorite was Stonedhenge which preceded it. Rock on, Alvin!
