Ugh, Boardwalk, damn that ending!

I voted for REBUILD, but that's almost entirely on the offensive side of things. I think our pitching is set up very nicely for the future, rotation wise, and I am completely content with our bullpen going forward if it means we can add a veteran piece when this team is ready to compete. What needs a giant overhaul is the offense. De Aza, Beckham, Dunn, Konerko, Phegley, and Alexei are all replaceable. That's 6 of our 9 hitters. That's substantial.

Homeland was pretty good again tonight, but Carrie off her meds is so annoying to watch. Also, got a split second of Dana boobs. Nice. I want to see a lot more of that, she has really "matured" since S1, aka, TIG 'OLE BIDDIES.

I wish we had a TV thread for this.

I want to see Saad get a shot at shootouts. Hossa is no good at them. IIRC, Sharp is pretty awful at them too.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 02:19 AM) These kids last night had me up all night running missions then bailing or going crazy or just being terrible. Online gaming when it was only your friends was so much better. s***, WoW had at least SOME honest people. I don't get the point in being an asshole unless someone deserves it. Whenever people shoot at me, I just run away. I'm not going to engage in their stupid games. Hell, every store I have robbed with a stranger I have given them a cut of the loot. It's virtual f***ing money, I don't need to be an asshole to someone for $500 virtual dollars. Just be fair and everyone has a good time. Luckily since my last post I found a nice guy from Scotland, and him and I did about 4 or 5 Simeon and Gerald missions, which are fun because it's an actual co-op mission against AI, not some stupid COD style deathmatches or long ass checkpoint races. Up to about $40K or so now. I am not sure if I want to buy a garage now, or save up for at least a cheap apartment. I've yet to find out what the advantage is of having a house/apartment over just a garage. Can you do anything in the house that is worthwhile? I heard you can watch TV and smoke pot in them, but I'd rather do missions. The part I am wondering is maybe you have to have a house/apartment to plan out your heists, in which case that would be very important.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 02:00 AM) GTA is awesome, but partnering with random kids sucks balls Tell me about it. My friends are lame and don't want to do the missions, they just want to run around killing random human players. I've been sitting here trying to do these Gerald missions to make money, and I can't get a single person to join.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 04:29 PM) It's certainly not a fast paced show but I was engrossed throughout. Also, the series is over after one season. I think that's why it got nominated as a mini-series at the Emmys. I was wondering that when I heard it, but I never looked in to it.

Woah woah woah, is someone here question April Ludgate? She is hilarious and oddly sexy. I love her. Everyone should love her. Her and Ben are the most relateable characters on the show, the ones who point out things the audience is thinking.

Top of the Lake is like.... 7 episodes maybe? The first 4 or 5 are terribly slow. The last couple are very good and were actually compelling enough that I'll watch a 2nd season.

I have family living in the DC area, I hope they weren't affected. My uncle works in the US Embassy.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Oct 3, 2013 -> 02:53 PM) You cant share money from robbing stores. Whoever picks it up gets to keep it. False, I've shared money every single time I've robbed a place. You hold down SELECT, or whatever the equivalent is on XBOX, choose INVENTORY, and then choose CASH. You can freely give cash to people for no reason, OR, you can choose "Share from last job", and it allows you to give a certain percentage of the robbed money to your accomplices. It's a really cool feature.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 3, 2013 -> 08:15 AM) Mercy, bro. Pull yourself away from the game console for awhile and wait until they have it working properly. I don't see why you care, it's hardly like I'm complaining about it.

My GTA Online is working now. I had the game boot straight it to Online, not single player, and that seemed to work. Still has long pauses in the beginning, but it's working. The game glitched me with $11K for some reason, so after less than 2 hours, I am at $22K already, almost enough to buy an apartment. I had fun jumping in random cars with people and robbing stores. I played wheelman, but then the dumbass shot at the cops, so I had to drive us out of a 3-star situation, and in online the cops are INSANE. It took at least 5 minutes to lose the stars. I drove all over the place, but those helicopters wouldn't let up. After we escaped, the guy didn't give me any of the cut of the robbery. Asshole.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 06:24 PM) I'm glad he at least confined Micah is a legit 80 in the speed department. I know there was some uncertainty on just how fast he actually is. I didn't expect him to be graded an 80, I thought he was more of a 65-70 guy who had awesome base stealing instincts.

The Indians and Dick Swisher losing are exactly what needed to happen.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 10:15 PM) Frolik with two goals last night, Bolland with two tonight. Time to put the Bowmans on the hot seat? I think the Hawks will ultimately come to miss Dexter more than any other player we've traded away in recent years.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 10:00 PM) ok this is a fake greg. Somebody hacked him. This post is outstanding. But just to let you know he was still there, he went ahead and questioned Viciedo's age.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 08:58 PM) Rasmus was a 4.8 fWAR player this year despite only playing 118 games. He's just coming into his prime, so if he keeps playing at that level, I don't think $20M is out of the question. Probly closer to $15m, but lets see what kind of season he has next year. Holy s***, are you serious? You could have told me he was a 1 WAR player and I would have believed you more. That's shocking.

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 05:59 PM) Arenado is on Colorado. Why would San Diedo want De Aza for either of those players? Gyorko is a young, controllable player. s***, you're right, I always think he is on the Padres for some reason. And the Padres could use De Aza in CF over Amarista, who had a terrible year, although he is still young. The centerpiece of that deal would obvious be whatever pitcher we send over, I just didn't list one because that would depend on who the Sox got back between Gyorko or Headley.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 08:19 PM) The goalie pads are a tad bit smaller as well. And players can not remove their OWN helmet during a fight, and players may not tuck their jerseys in.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 2, 2013 -> 08:50 PM) Gilligan on the official BB podcast was interesting with the pitched story lines they didn't go with. Walt Jr dying in S1, and Skyler committing suicide in the end. I forgot where I saw the article, but it outlined 8-10 storylines that the writers came out with that they never decided to go with. One of those include Marie shooting a pizza guy, Walt running in to another former student at the gas station in the finale when he made the call to find out where Gretchen and Elliot live, and a bunch of others I can't remember right now.

Rockstar cloud servers are down, so if you do play online, dont bother making a new guy, and choose a new character slot because nothing you do will save, and using the same slot may overwrite your character. It's still not working for me, so back to NHL '14 Live the Life for this guy.
