2014-2015 NBA thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 30, 2014 -> 09:13 PM) Tell me who in the East outside the Bulls is going to be able to take that team out in round 2? Maybe the Heat. That'd be hilarious. LeBron leaves Miami to go back to Cleveland, only to get beat by Miami in the second round.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 30, 2014 -> 09:02 PM) And tomorrow night the fresher Bulls team will have a huge task on their hands somehow. LeBron probably won't start 1-9.

The Cavs aren't looking very good... This is a Knicks team playing in a back to back and they just got blown out by the Bulls.

Religion and the Environment
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 30, 2014 -> 09:49 AM) This is only tangentially related, but... the new pope has recently said, in public, that the theories of evolution and the big bang are perfectly acceptable and good things, and that they are even necessary for how we perceive God. That was kind of a big shift. Also said that God isn't a wizard with a magic wand - seemed to suggest that the creation of man was never meant to be understood as an event literally described in the Bible. The new Pope is actually pretty cool. Much more progressive than previous ones, at least from what I've seen.

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 29, 2014 -> 11:53 PM) I want to get an in-person look at the Nexus 6. Might just have to get one since I can get it on-contract via AT&T. Rumored 32GB on-contract price is $50; that's what it was when AT&T accidentally published the product page pre-announcement. It's just huge, though, so moreso than the other bigger screen phones, I'd have to get a good look at it. I'd just do the Moto X 2014, but the humongous battery in the Nexus 6 is a pretty meaningful upgrade compared to the smaller Moto X I can't ever give up my $30 5 GB plan with T-Mobile. I'm willing to shell out the $700 after taxes. The problem is, I can't even pre-order one if I wanted one. I saw some shots of it next to a Note 4, it's basically the same size. That's not too much for me.

**Official 2014 World Series Thread**
Bumgarner's performance was incredible. 1 run over 20+ innings. Not to mention 5 innings in game 7. And I think Gordon could have scored had he ran harder on that error by Blanco. He got caught in between in the worst possible situation. It didn't help that the LFer bobbled the ball on the warning track.

Guess the first offseason trade
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 11:36 AM) Adam Eaton is a gold glover in nomination only. The metrics don't think he belongs anywhere in that conversation. DRS likes him. UZR doesn't.

2014-2015 NFL Football thread
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 28, 2014 -> 12:02 AM) 2nd and 3, 3rd and 3, 4th and 3 and you don't give it to your RB who is average 7.4 yard per carry in the game and is on pace to beat the all-time single season rushing record.....That horrible playcalling at the end and the 2 fumbles by Murray/Randle really killed them tonight. Should have been an easy win, even despite McCoy's solid game and the defense showing their suck. Romo should have never been back in IMO. Weeden was doing fine. Let Murray win the game. If anything, Romo's shown he usually gives the win to the other team in those situations. He almost gave the ball away twice in that last drive in regulation.

I scored 158 in half PPR and still lost by 17. This was one of the craziest fantasy football weeks ever.

2014 Fantasy Football Thread
QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 05:33 PM) There's some crazy fantasy numbers going up this week. I'm going to score 160 and lose. Roethlisberger and Brown have combined for 80. I have Sanders and Charles and they got me 65 combined. I still have Jordy and Cobb left so there's still some hope.

WTF Indy? How are you letting Roethlisberger do this to your defense? 5 TD passes and 400 yards already. It's not even the 4th quarter yet.

Cutler looks like he's getting pressured every time in the pocket, even if there's no pressure.
