2016 Presidential Election Thread
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 10:54 AM) You still need to be registered in a specific place to a specific address and go to a specific polling place. Yeah, I'm not worried about voter fraud or anything. If people want to cheat, they will find a way no matter what the rules. There are just so many random petty services that require IDs, it just seems funny that voting is not one of them. I need an ID and a utility bill to get a local library card, but not to vote.

2016 Presidential Election Thread
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 10:24 AM) Shouldn't need an ID either, but yeah I'd call to check to make sure you're registered. It still blows my mind that voting is done on the honor system and you don't even need an ID.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 9, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) The Ruth's Chris in Ann Abor gives a discount based on the margin of victory. It probably was hard to get a table last night at 78% off. The promotion runs Sunday-Thursday, yesterday they had zero tables available until Friday. Although the discount is only for food, booze is not included.

Marc Trestman fired by the Ravens as OC. Talking what if's with my buddy, what if the Bears had hired Arians instead of Trestman? And drafted Mercilus instead of McClellin? Sigh...

ALDS: Blue Jays vs. Rangers
I've never seen Bush pitch before, wow, he's nasty. Natural skill seems to always trump extra curricular bad behavior.

ALDS: Blue Jays vs. Rangers
QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 9, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) Well, this is a fun game at least . 5-4, 4th inning, both SP getting hit around, Lots of hitters in both lineups, although half the Rangers are about 3 years past their prime.

2016-2017 NFL Thread
QUOTE (Soxfest @ Oct 9, 2016 -> 03:10 PM) Yet the Bears with a 300 yard passer, a 100 yard rusher and 100 yard receiver lose to them. Says more about the Bears than Indy. The Bears are in full rebuilding mode. The Colts have a franchise QB yet only make the playoffs because they are in the worst division in football. The Colts should be a lot better than the Bears yet they almost lost.

The only reason Logan Paulsen is on the roster is to reach a yearly quota on holding penalties. I can't think of another reason.

NLDS: Giants vs. Evil Empire
QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 10:14 PM) Giants lineup just sucks right now. No power, which is what you need to beat the Cubs It's sucked for a while, that's why they barely made the playoffs and finished 16 games behind the Cubs. Their only chance to win was ride the backs of Cueto and Bum G. Cueto did the job but the Giants had Gorkys Hernandez leading off and Conor Gillaspie in the lineup.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 09:40 PM) b****ing and moaning about Harbaugh recruiting NJ and the satellite camps. Should've kept his mouth shut. Everyone knew this was a possibility. Not too mention the whole second half is 2nd and 3rd stringers. So the Rutgers coach actually b****ed about the satellite camps? Ha. I don't think that's allowed until you have an actual football team. I would love to see a comparison to other Power 5 games, I doubt there have been many blowouts this big.

What did Rutgers ever do to Jim Harbaugh? This has gotta be an all time conference beat down. 71-0, yardage is 540 to 6. Yes, six.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 10:49 PM) Ugh can't help but think Posey not running on that ball Zobrist dropped might have avoided a Cubs meltdown. lol I don't think Javier Baez knows what a curtain call is. Haha, no clue. He just said first thing on his mind to answer that question

NLDS: Giants vs. Evil Empire
QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:41 PM) Anyone else think this Cubs lineup is overrated? The top half of the lineup is excellent but the bottom half of their lineup does nothing for me - Russell, Heyward, Baez, Ross You may be right, but those first 3 guys are elite defensively which is huge for their overall success.

2016 Democratic Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:08 PM) Speaker Paul Ryan condemned Trump as well and announced the nominee would no longer attend a high-profile scheduled event with Ryan and Priebus in Wisconsin on Saturday. "I am sickened by what I heard today," he said. "Women are to be championed and revered, not objectified. I hope Mr. Trump treats this situation with the seriousness it deserves and works to demonstrate to the country that he has greater respect for women than this clip suggests." That's such bulls***. Anybody with half a brain cell and no political agenda isn't surprised by anything released today. This is who Trump has always been. I really need a 3rd party I can join.

NLDS: Giants vs. Evil Empire
QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:08 PM) He does it when he's pitching out of the windup, so I don't think that applies. Like I said, I don't understand the balk rule.

NLDS: Giants vs. Evil Empire
QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:00 PM) It's pretty funny how Cueto f***s around out there with crazy qwerks in his delivery. I don't understand the balk rule but it definitely seems like he should be called for one a lot.

NLDS: Giants vs. Evil Empire
QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 08:45 PM) Not sure what stats say, but the Giants easily have the worst lineup of the 8 playoff teams It seems like all their WS champion lineups were relatively weak, although they did have Panda.

Cooper has extension offer
QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 07:59 PM) No surprise, he's here as long as JR owns the team (as is most if not all of the front office...) Mark 2005!!!
