QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Sep 26, 2013 -> 10:40 AM) I'm a complete loser because I've never watched Breaking Bad and I don't have a DVR. I have enough trouble keeping up with SOA and Under the Dome. BB right now makes all other television a waste of time. I like Hell on Wheels and SOA and both are having good seasons but BB is on another level. Last show like that was early Lost seasons. BB builds early then tappers off a little but now is better than ever.

Gomez apology was very good and in the interview after the game you could see he felt sorry.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 25, 2013 -> 05:11 PM) For the complete losers out there who haven't watched Breaking Bad, AMC is doing a 5 day marathon of all 5 seasons in order starting tonight at 7pm CST. Set those DVRs. Sat and watched a few early episodes last night. Forgot all about he Crazy Eight informant thing.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 25, 2013 -> 12:17 PM) The two handed baseball swing and the spear were just bad. I don't get how that is only three games. Tell me how that isn't worse than some of the other actual hockey plays on big hits that result in longer suspensions. John Scott was not injured. The best part of the video is Scott patting the linesman on the back, basically saying ok we're done.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 24, 2013 -> 03:55 PM) Oh come on... http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baske...0,2802637.story All about marketing. Now everyone needs to get a King James jersey. Brilliant really although it kind of makes the league look bush to normal people that will not run out and get a Truth jersey. Remember when the XFL did this.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 10:24 AM) Remember, the Bulls had the longest sellout streak in sports despite a guaranteed mugging on the way back to your car. Just part of the price of admission if you want to take your family to see Benny & the gang. It's Benny & The Jets

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 02:10 PM) This rotoworld report for Jacoby Jones is hilarious on so many levels... Jacoby Jones suffers head injury in altercation with a stripper. A. Stripper Party Bus B. McKinnie is on bus and was on party boat C. Uncooperative with police D. Hit with oversized champagne bottle The good news at least there was not an NFL player drinking and driving the bus....hopefully Cosmo Kramer was driving All we need is a couple of players packing heat and a little dope on the party bus.

Went to see the Eagles Friday. Great show, started with the slower stuff and then at the end they kind of let Joe Walsh take over. First hour was songs and stories. Very cool Metallica was on Howard Stern this morning, very good interview

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 10:47 AM) I had to explain to a bunch of Charlestonian's why Chicago wasn't Detroit after this story popped up last week. They seemed amazed when I told them all of this violence is basically centered in two small areas of the city, well away from the real $$. I also explained how it was my belief that the mayor, city council, county board, etc. are all "in" on never actually attacking this problem because if they did the violence would spread into more desirable places in the city, and then we really would end up like Detroit. People/businesses would leave for the burbs and the City would die. I still say call the national guard in with shoot to kill orders. That's the only way you stop this cycle of violence. This is hitting all parts of the city. Not to the magnitude of the shooting last week. If Rahm can get money from Obama, this all can be covered with a saturation of police coverage.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 10:10 AM) Who gives a s*** if he's a really good guy? His fists still hurt and he can ruin a career, especially a star who is about to earn a lot of money next offseason. That's a good point and that second slash was definitely excessive. I just don't think he's the one bad guy or "coward" in all of this. He was put on the ice to defuse the situation, yet Scott still went after him which isn't supposed to happen. Players don't just drop the gloves and beat the s*** out of the other guy if they are not looking to drop the gloves also. All Kessel had to do was skate away from Scott and it would have been over. Scott would not have jumped on him and started pounding him. Using his stick a second time, later after everything had cooled down was the real bush league move.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 09:08 AM) That is a testament to how good the writing is. They get you to feel sorry for guys like Walt and Jesse at multiple junctures. I always kind of feel sorry for Jessie.

Kessel could easily have looked at him and said I ain't dropping the gloves and then Scott looks foolish. Those guys don't just drop the gloves and maul people. Especially John Scott who is a really good guy as well as a hockey goon.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 23, 2013 -> 07:45 AM) I just hope somehow Jesse comes out on top in the end. Throughout the entire show, he has just been hurt in every way, shape, & form and it still continues, just like to see something good happen for him. That was where the Andrea thing really felt forced. There really is no chance of him coming out on top now. Another innocent person killed by his doing. The last 50 minutes are going to be something.

Looks like breaking bad is wrapping pretty well. The Andrea bit seemed a little much, I didn't need that but suppose it will mean something but don't see how. Paused the bear game, didn't miss a thing.

QUOTE (juddling @ Sep 20, 2013 -> 03:51 PM) After watching America's Got Talent all summer I got to say.....Mel B is f'n hot. f'able hot but Heidi is gorgeous, until she opens her mouth Show was worth watching if for no other reason than hillbillies like the show as do young girls.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 20, 2013 -> 02:25 PM) The L is pretty awesome and if they did away with it, then traffic would be a nightmare. The Dan Ryan expressway (which I drive daily from start to finish) cannot agree with you enough

All last night showed me was another coach (Romeo) needs to kiss Belicheck's feet for getting him a job he was not qualified for. Man that list is long and impressive.

10:00 on a warm night is not that crazy. The 2AM shootings of the 7 year olds are more questionable. At some point McCarthy or Rahm have to be taken to task on this. Who is going to protect the $100M park?

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Sep 19, 2013 -> 09:19 AM) Right, because incompetent workers in non-government jobs are UNHEARD OF They don't have pensions and are not nearly paid as well as their government counterpart.

I voted for Gary Thorne, tomorrow I will vote for Hawk. Bob Newhart never won an Emmy until this past year. I find that more tragic than Rush not being in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 18, 2013 -> 11:13 AM) John Danks goes for the Sox against Diamond I think. Any bets on how many home runs Danks gives up today? The game is on WGN at Noon MDT. I will be there rooting for the Sox behind the big screen. Why will you be behind and not in front of the big screen. Gorgeous day here in the big city, if not swamped at worked would love to head on out to the ole ballpark.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 17, 2013 -> 09:20 AM) That's a pretty big if. Sure which is why that trade looked so lopsided toward the cubs, I was one of the bigger dolts saying that the cubs ripped off the Padres because Rizzo was certain to be an all-star. I never thought Cashner would be and stay healthy. If he does, wow does that trade along with moving Archer look like moves that set the cub back further. I understand that Archer was a move that was made in the win now mode and Garza did help them out but it was a move that they are paying for now. Which would be very similar to the Hudson move had he not gotten hurt. Hudson and Sale would be a very formidable front end rotation for a rebuilding team as would Cashner and Archer. Oddly Cashner is pitching well and Hudson is struggling to get healthy. Finally, Daytona winning the A league title made the morning updates on the SCORE but I did not hear about the Barons title...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 16, 2013 -> 08:55 PM) Andrew Cashner with the one - hit shutout Faced the minimum and threw 97 pitches. That trade and the eventual extension of rizzo, if Cashner stays healthy could look really bad for Theo.
