QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 17, 2014 -> 01:02 PM) its a plane. Why couldn't you just buy one? Does al Qaeda have an open credit account with Airbus?

Last night's game was just brutal with the amount of fans with no clue how to wait for the whistle, no matter how many times you yell at them. And it wasn't all of the Red Wings fans either. Nice to see Hossa come back with a vengeance. I'm sure the time off will help in the long run.

Newest reports say that the plane was flying at under 5,000 feet at one points to avoid radar detection. Also, the younger co-pilot was the last one heard making verbal communication over the radio, so he was awake/aware when the radar was being shut off. I am thinking that somehow they depressurized the cabin and that most of the passengers really weren't awake. If you started flying that low, you would think that some passenger or crew member might start wondering what was up and maybe get on their cell phone and send a message or something.

But from the headline, this was expected. 1 last run of the flower power.(hopefully) I added a new link to the original post. I'm not a subscriber either, but I am able to read it if I go through Buster Olney's link.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 17, 2014 -> 05:46 AM) Why not try hosting in Bloomington or AllState? I don't think State Farm would approve of the All State idea. I think they should host at Huff Hall, nice cozy atmosphere.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Mar 15, 2014 -> 07:00 AM) Sounds legit. On a serious side, the Malaysian government is hiding too much,now they officially are accepting the conclusion it was hijacked,it took them this long to confirm it? I can't decide if the Malaysian government is very good at keeping secrets or completely incompetent

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 15, 2014 -> 05:38 PM) So Michigan should be a 1, Wisconsin a 2, MSU a 4 and OSU a 5? I'd hate to be the 1 seed with MSU as a 4

Glad to have Peanut back, he was still playing well at his age. I predict Peppers has six sacks next year, five against the Bears.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 15, 2014 -> 09:36 AM) Yeah, I can't tell if they are floating until the playoffs, or just don't have that extra spark this year. Something seems to be missing defensively, they give up too many easy goals.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 14, 2014 -> 04:59 PM) That's upper midwest generosity. What does he need $50 million for? He can get by perfectly fine on $20 mill, and he could certainly make more after that too. Who in the hell would pay Glen Perkins $50 million?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 14, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) Bernie Pleskoff ‏@BerniePleskoff 42m Hear it in the press box: #WhiteSox Jose Abreu brings back memories of a young Frank Thomas. That's some praise. Nothing too wild. Spring Training is the worst.

LOL, I guess that sums up the season for Illinois.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 14, 2014 -> 12:15 PM) I think that hiding it from radars worldwide would be much more troublesome (again, only large airports could handle a 777 coming in). I agree. Now had there been enough fuel to make it to the African desert or Somalia, then maybe I would find it a bit more feasible. The fuel thing was just a side thought I had about what such a crazy plot would entail.

If the plane was stolen and someone was planning on flying it again, how easy is it to procure thousands of gallons of gas on the black market?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 14, 2014 -> 09:19 AM) Alexei would be such a perfect fit for the Yankees. Honestly I am surprised it hasn't happened yet. And take away playing time from the greatest SS in the history of mankind?

New report from Reuters that the plane was deliberately flown towards the Andaman Islands off India before it vanished.
