My drunk ass jumped into the pool with my phone...so had to upgrade to the iPhone5...was not real happy about it, because I was hoping to hold out until next year for the 6, but whatever...at least Golden State paid for it yesterday with their victory...

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 10, 2013 -> 11:17 AM) Ugh, who chose Hangover III? The first was so overrated (ok, not great) and the second was atrocious. Yeah, pretty funny that you single-out the Hangover amongst this group...

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 10, 2013 -> 07:15 AM) It was 5/8/13. Stuff about it should have been popping up on wednesday. 0...1...1...2...3...5...8...13...21...34... 5/8/13. Robert Langdon would be proud, Balta...

You're providing things for free...they should be happy with any pair of Bears tickets you provide.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 9, 2013 -> 02:13 PM) $7500 (which includes installation). We are doing a nice darker color wood with a rustic look (so has some scuffs in it, etc...that way when it gets the wear and tear of our use, it doesn't stand out). In the bathrooms/laundry room are installing 20 inch tiles (travertine). About 650 square feet of wood and 200 square feet of title. It also included the cost to rip everything out and removing/replacing the big base boards we have (so that you don't have to use quarter round). Next up on my list of things to do will be painting, installing my new appliances (some Bosh appliances...thank you friends employee discount), and installing 3/1/2 inch clear view shutters. Then I'm done and poor and will be focused on creating the baby nursery. Cool...we've been looking at a number of homes that will need new flooring, so I was curious...not sure if I will go with wood or concrete though.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 9, 2013 -> 01:53 PM) If someone cheap shotted Rose, the refs wouldn't ignore it. That's the advantage of being the Heat -- refs and fans pay more attention the stars, so they won't miss it if something questionable happens to them. It would really de-incentivize going goon on Derrick Yeah, but it may only take one time...

QUOTE (Jake @ May 9, 2013 -> 01:51 PM) My column today for Yahoo! Sports is on Danks: What to Expect when John Danks Returns I think he's going to be okay. He definitely won't be the same and I think his numbers will reflect it, too. I don't think he'll get hit back onto the DL, though. I advocate going to a six man when he returns, to get him extra rest and give Axe/Hector more time to prove themselves. If Danks does blow up big time, you won't be screwing with whichever guy goes to the pen if he has to come back to start. Like always, good stuff, Jake.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ May 9, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) Do you guys think last nights abortion is more or less likely to bring Rose back this series? Im curious if he would be more willing to join in on the hype and excitement after the game 1 win or if he wants to show he might still have a spine and help his teammates bounce back after an embarrassing loss. Cowherd was making some good points this morning...if Rose comes back, he could be a target for Birdman or some other goon if things were to get nasty...

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 9, 2013 -> 01:35 PM) Closed escrow on our new place on Monday. Putting in new wood floor right now. Moving in in about 10 days. Pretty excited, but very house-poor, haha. Sweet! How much are the floors running you?

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:59 PM) So, Andrew McCutchen gave me a haircut today.... Lucky you!

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:35 PM) Is that an insult? EERRRMMMAAGUURRDD, SUSPEND HIM! No, it was a question.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:20 PM) Wait, are you saying the book was boring based off the Spark Notes of the book? If that's the case, you didn't find the Great Gatsby to be extremely boring. You found the Spark Notes version of the Great Gatsby to be extremely boring. When did Spark overtake Cliff on the lazy student market?

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:25 PM) How would that even work, anyway? I can understand if it would have been the walk-off run, but how would it have worked in this scenario? I would imagine they would re-start the game from the point at which the missed call occurred, except, with the correct call made.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:23 PM) No. Did you forget the other one already?

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 12:20 PM) Yeah dude, calling people names is JUST like ROBBING A PERSON'S HOUSE. Nicely done. Also, try to tone down the outrageous hyperbole. You've done it multiple times recently. Wasn't that an issue on this board last year? And a suspension is like ARRESTING SOMEONE. It's called a simile. Now you have learned TWO things today!

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 11:36 AM) Alright, suspended is what I meant. This is the only board I'm on that uses the word "suspended", my bad. But still, booooooo. Well, suspended implies temporary, while banned implies permanent. See, you've learned something new today....go home and tell your mom!

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2013 -> 11:16 AM) Andrew got banned for this?? Booooooooooooooo. I think he just got a little time off... He was clearly determined to get in trouble...

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 9, 2013 -> 10:47 AM) "She's just having fun." Screaming obscenities and flipping people off is apparently fun for lunatics. "People should get a life" says the lady who is screaming obscenities at and flipping off an NBA player It seems like she is right up in his grill, too...it's not like she was casually flipping him the bird or something.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 9, 2013 -> 07:23 AM) I remember seeing a comparison in the Indiana Daily Student when I was there about how different things affect your reaction time while driving on average. IIRC, texting and alcohol both slowed reaction time by about 20%-25%, whereas weed slowed it by roughly 35%. I guess my question was, if we're saying the field sobriety tests aren't great indicators for alcohol, why are we saying they're great indicators for other substances? Or is it just that we lack something comparable to BAC for those other drugs, and therefore have to rely on field sobriety tests? Or perhaps I am overstating the uselessness of field sobriety tests? Never actually taken one, but my guess is that I'd be pretty terrible at them sober. I do remember hearing something in Crim Pro about the test where your eyes follow the pen, though. Apparently when you're drunk your eyes can't follow something in a continuous motion, they just skip across. Yeah, there are certain physical indicators, such as the eye test, which are actually pretty consistent from person to person...there are others, such as the standing on one leg and "walking the plank" that are just completely outdated and ridiculous.

Let's trade them Sale for Trout.

Honestly, the refs were a bit bad, but no more than they ever are in a playoff game on the road. I don't blame our guys for losing their cool a bit, but they need to be better than that. Meanwhile, I hope you are enjoying yourself from the bench, Rose.

I'm tuning back in just in case there is a fight

Noah is out there chest bumping people on screens though...they're protecting them both.
