QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 03:07 PM) Mass shooting fatigue. Seriously. It just doesn't have the same effect after a while. I think if it were to have happened in a more recognizable place maybe it would have made more of an impact.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 03:06 PM) A much larger one. Such a BIG improvement. The video board at the Cell was truly embarrassing compared to what the newer stadiums have. I only get to a few games at the Cell a year since I live in MN, but I feel I can take credit for this since everytime I got a fan experience questionnaire email, I expounded on how badly the cell needed this. New Video Board Edit: my eye for color is off, but you get it. Thanks. That looks awesome.

QUOTE (BaseballNick @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 02:54 PM) They're adding the larger scoreboard/videoboard. Ah I see.

To be honest it doesnt seem like many even care here in the US. What is up with that? I guess its a good thing because fear isnt spreading?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 10:41 AM) So will the world now stand in support of San Bernardino like they did with Paris? Or will they just keep pointing and laughing at the stupid American and their gun laws? It has been officially ruled an act of terrorism it doesnt seem like anyone outside of the US really seems to care.

Driving by the Cell everyday I see cranes going to work and it looks like they may be renovating. I am not sure if its just the typical yearly maintenance or if there are some goodies we can expect next season. I don't recall seeing any press releases or articles that said there would be updates for next year.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 11:51 AM) I believe this is becoming a catch-all catch-all and should be closed LOL I am just getting this now. 23 hours later.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 09:54 AM) NBC News ‏@NBCNews 6m6 minutes ago BREAKING: Female shooter in San Bernardino attack pledged allegiance to ISIS leader: Sources http://nbcnews.to/1XFUcfw This answers some of your questions Well there ya go.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 4, 2015 -> 09:49 AM) Not sure there's any evidence of that yet. Given the buildup of ammo, the pipe bombs, etc. seems to me this is a terrorist act against the easiest target he could think of. Someplace where he knew the layout, knew the security and knew where people would be. Couldnt a terrorist easily plot these things out for basically anywhere? Like a mall or any venue that that is going to hold a lot of people at one time. I know security is a little amped up but really nothing that could stop the spraying of bullets for a couple of minutes.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 03:36 PM) sounds like im doing other things at halftime Oh you are gonna watch and like it. I cant stand all these posers who pretend to hate Coldplay. You cant hate Coldplay...they have a sound that pulls at your damn heart strings!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 11:40 AM) No I will not. Catch all's are not tolerated on this site. They are a detriment to healthy discussion and make it more difficult for people to read the site. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

It sounds like it is both from what they are saying. The dude has ties to terrorists that the FBI has been following with him having contact with them through social media and such. Plus he has grievances with those he worked with that sparked the whole thing to happen now. It makes sense.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 3, 2015 -> 09:56 AM) These two had a small baby, 6 months old, what the hell? Thats what makes me say this is a radical religious killing. To be willing to effectively end your life and slay dozens of people because you are mad at the workplace?... I guess its been done before but when its done by someone who is Muslim who recently traveled to the middle east we are going to naturally think terrorism right away.

So this has got to be a planned attack for one of the organized terrorist groups right? This doesnt smell one bit like an angry employee going postal.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 05:10 PM) Eh. I may love STAR WARS, but I also have some self respect. LOL I actually poke fun but there are some cool dudes I have met along the way that are in to that stuff and its not weird or anything. But if you did it I would definitely make fun.

Going in Cosplay I assume...

What is the speculation on the motivation of this one? Its not ISIS or anything right?

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Dec 1, 2015 -> 05:29 PM) https://www.youtube.com/embed/gpaOy8b8X6A You can catch me at the Laff house on Tuesdays were kids eat free!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 02:16 PM) Perez on randolph isnt too far away. We love Perez but have been going there for some years now. The ol lady wants to go someplace new.

I cant hate Beckham. The bar was set to superstar level right off the bat. I don't think that them throwing him in there right away made him any worse of a player to this point. He is what he is, sometimes guys don't pan out to what their perceived ceilings were. Its not like he didnt give his all.

QUOTE (kevo880 @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 01:16 PM) Guaranteed he's taking his @SS back to the NL That is the only place that he might succeed in IMO. If an AL team decides to give him over 100M the second he signs with them is the second that team made a huge mistake.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 11:01 AM) We have a few Family Videos around here as well, although I haven't actually been inside any of them for quite awhile. Since we finally got a DVR last year, I just wait until the movie channels have a free preview weekend and record a bunch of stuff to watch later. I've got a ton of movies on there I still haven't gotten around to watching. Although I bet if I went to FV tonight they'd give me a free rental simply because I haven't been there for so long. LOL It seems like they are dying to give you a free rental there doesnt it?

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 11:11 AM) Saw that on twitter. Sorry shipps. Unbelievable. That was the spot we were going to meet up at so now to plan B which includes about 5 different places.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 2, 2015 -> 10:10 AM) f*** that, going to blockbuster was one of the best things ever. I miss video stores and it sucks my kids wont grow up hunting through aisles trying to find the movie they want. I go to Family Video out here. I like it a lot because you still get that Blockbuster night feel. Its kind of an event when we take the kids to pick out movies. Most of their kid movies are for free. The new release rentals are like 2 bucks and they have extremely soft policies on late returns.
