  1. QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 07:12 PM) Religion is not a blanket get out of jail free card. It often is in this country. Just declare something "sacred" and you shield it from criticism.
  2. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 07:08 PM) The idea that he should be fired for that is ridiculous. It's excessive. I wouldn't say ridiculous. Saying stupid s*** on air should get you in trouble. Of course, since ESPN employs Skip Bayless, it's hard for them to fire anyone on those grounds. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 07:08 PM) That's discrimination based on religious beliefs, which you guys should be supporting the hell out of. So you can say anything you want as long as it's based on religion? Why?
  3. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 04:52 PM) Oh f*** that. This is a perfect example of the double standard that exists with people that cry out about discrimination and tolerance. Broussard says that Collins being gay doesn't compute with his version of Christianity and people are saying he should be fired. God, how dare he have a personal belief and some conviction to tell people about it! That's so progressive and tolerant to be understanding of other people that way. So accepting! I don't want a black quarterback on my team. They're extra sinful, because they're descendents of Ham. HEY HEY HEY watch the backlash, this is just my personal religious belief that I have conviction about!
  4. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 04:36 PM) Or Wilbon dislikes Cutler, but has a soft spot for D-Rose. And good job comparing his injury with knee injuries 20 years ago. I'm sure nothing in the medical profession has changed or improved since then. Yup, meanwhile, the comparisons to Rubio and Shumpert don't count. And his Magic Johnson anecdote contradicts his point: Magic had to get on the court and play for real to get his confidence back.
  5. QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 24, 2013 -> 09:50 PM) lol In the top picture the lady in the hoodie has the same face as the lady standing next to her. lol I didn't even notice. Jesus
  6. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 24, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) Conservative Voter ID mailer photoshops out black people They photoshopped out "too small hoodie" black guy, but there are still at least 2 other black people clearly visible.
  7. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 08:50 PM) Welcome to our nation's rape culture. More like "welcome to high school sports culture". Let's not investigate this rape, the guy could play college ball!
  8. QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 01:43 PM) And look how effective he is. And comparing Shumpert to Rose is a joke. Shumpert's stats this year are better than last year's. If he's not that good, it's not because of his knee.
  9. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 02:33 AM) GOT!! Another fantastic episode. Been waiting for a couple of those scenes. They delivered.
  10. QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 01:37 AM) Defense Lawyers are saying that he wasn't Mirandized upon his arrest. The US attorney said that at the press conference right after they captured him. She said there is an exception for Mirandizing suspects when there is an outstanding threat (eg possible undetonated bombs). After they talk to him about that, then they must Mirandize him.
  11. QUOTE (bulokis @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 11:08 PM) Is DRose 110% ready to sit on the bench because if not I do not want him there. Don't worry, I hear he's been outsitting everyone in practice.
  12. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 17, 2013 -> 06:43 PM) That is pretty much the script of every superhero movie. Come on now, TDKR, Bruce Wayne had his back broken, the new Iron Man he is going to lose everything. Thor lost his power and was cast onto earth. It is how those movies are. The Thor example works (kinda), but the others doesn't. Batman and Iron Man and Spiderman and the XMen and Captain America all sometimes suffer defeats because they have worthy adversaries. Superman usually needs some gimmick that strips him of his powers because he's so OP.
  13. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 17, 2013 -> 06:34 PM) GEE I wonder how they'll compromise Superman's powers to make him less than immortal during that 2.5 hours? It's hard to get into a Superman movie. They don't need to. They can use the other card. Hey, there's ANOTHER guy from Krypton with the same powers, but he's BAD.
  14. I've served both on a civil suit (1/2 day and gone) and as a member of a grand jury (a full month). Here's what to expect. You will spend a lot of time waiting around. There's a decent chance you never make it out of the waiting room. But if you do, you and a group of other potential jurors will brought to an individual courtroom. The people who don't want to be there will be given a brief opportunity to explain why they need to leave (sick mother, need to work, etc). Then you'll be questioned by attorneys to further filter the group. If you get past this part, congrats, you are a juror. Hope that your fellow jurors aren't complete morons who make you lost trust in the justice system. You don't need to wear a tie, but try to look presentable.
  15. QUOTE (Y2HH @ Apr 15, 2013 -> 01:02 PM) Can I ask what your goals are? Seems to me like the only thing you're interested in is leg exercises? As with any weight training, don't take this advice lightly as most people do: learn to do the exercises properly, or they're dangerous and over time, will wear and tear you into a hobbled middle-aged man. You won't be young forever. The bad habits you form from the beginning of weight lifting will be hard to break. Do some free online research on proper form/movements, I cannot stress this enough. The majority of people you see in a gym have no idea what they're doing, but they're always quick to give advice on how to lift. Proper form is FAR more important than how many plates yo' ass can drop. My goal is general improved fitness/strength.
  16. [background: I know virtually nothing about weight training] I'd like to start doing more weight training at the gym (currently I mess around on random machines a bit). I've been reading a lot of really good things about squats, but my gym doesn't have a squat rack, only that Smith Machine that I've been reading a lot of really bad things about. What are some other things I can do that would be good? Front squats?
  17. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 02:04 AM) Thanks. Man I am so happy for not wasting my time with that show. Yeah, I never watched an episode. Major lulz reading that article.
  18. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 01:53 AM) So I haven't watched since about the 4th episode, can you put in spoilers what caused it? It sounds like it follows the terrible acting. Here's an article that SPOILS it http://screencrush.com/nbc-revolution-spoilers-blackout/
  19. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 8, 2013 -> 05:39 PM) How does this even happen? Lunch denied to some Attleboro students Telling children to literally throw food away because their meals accounts didn't have enough money. WTF. At my kid's school, they cannot refuse a kid the basic lunch, even if they cannot pay. They just build a tab and hound the parents if it stays in the red.
  20. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 04:41 PM) The winds of winter isn't out till 2014. Then another 2-3 years for the final chapter. WAT He wrote FFC and DWD at the same time. On the last page of FFC, which came out in 2005, Martin says he hopes DWD will be out "hopefully next year". It took 6 more years! Dude is slow and he's only getting slower.
  21. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:35 PM) Yeah, that's true. But would Robert actually do that to Ned? Maybe it makes more sense than I originally thought. Oh yeah.
  22. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:30 PM)
  23. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:09 PM) Anyway, I got to looking online and the fan speculation about that is pretty off the wall. I have no idea where/how people came up with the common answer. Nor does it really make any sense to me: Why not? I think it works pretty well at explaining a lot of odd things.
  24. QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 27, 2013 -> 11:48 PM) I'm not big into FPS games, but the first Bioshock didn't really do it for me. I guess it's 5 years old now so that's part of why it's not holding up in my mind, but I don't get what made the gameplay so great. The gameplay is average. The environment and storyline are superb.
  25. QUOTE (TRU @ Mar 30, 2013 -> 01:53 AM) I just beat the game in about 7 hours, one sitting.. so yeah its VERY short and that's a bummer.. however the ending, in my opinion, was very satisfying and made the short game worth it. Anyone else get to the ending yet, looking for another opinion on it. The whole story, just like BioShock's, was fantastic.
