I'm currently/finished in first in every league except for 1. Playoffs start for 2 of my 4 leagues this week. It's too bad I'm the 4th seed in the league I really care about.

Kirk cost us the game, but hey, at least we got to see Rose make a buzzer beater. So there's that.

Gasol with his best game as a Bull.

7 TOs by Rose...ouch.

BIG TIME PLAYERS MAKE BIG TIME PLAYS

Yeah...looks like that's it. We had this game in the bag until Kirk decided to s*** all over it.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 09:39 PM) I agree, yet he still is putting up 21/8/6. Those 21 points are on 21 shots and 7 free throws though. Jimmy's been so efficient this year. It's so rare to see him with an inefficient game.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Dec 2, 2014 -> 09:36 PM) Thank God for Jimmy Butler This is probably one of his worst games of the year, unfortunately.

The last thing you allow there is a 3 point foul on that. If they make the shot, they make the shot. We gave them 3 points. God damn it.

Should have just left Noah in...Kirk WTF

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 1, 2014 -> 01:58 PM) We have 3 divisions and winners actually get their money back. I won my division this year and our division has the top 3 teams in points scored and 4 out of the top 5. I'm not a commissioner so I don't know how it's done, but is there a way on yahoo to set it up so that the division winners do not automatically get the top 3 seeds? Yeah there is. Our league has divisions but the top 3 records get the top 3 seeds. Divisions are there to alter scheduling and that's it.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 27, 2014 -> 01:59 PM) Truly awful "roughing the passer" call. Grabbed him by the jersey I was wondering if Sims and Nance were blind when they said it was a good call. He made contact around the jersey and shoulder pads. He barely touched him on the helmet. And this is right after the Bears got screwed on a no call for offensive pass interference.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 04:10 PM) Can the 805 do hardware encode and decode? I know a lot of chips only do one, but why in 2014 they'd even implement that without hardware encode/decode I have no idea. Yeah the 805 can. Google half-assed it. They were probably more busy with the 5.0 release.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 12:27 PM) If you haven't experienced any slow down why would you remove it? Benchmarks show that the storage speed is so much slower with it on. Google's not using hardware encryption on the Snapdragon 805 for some weird reason. I may not have done enough to experience this, but a lot of people have noticed slowdowns when storage is accessed.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 11:49 AM) Is the NFC South the worst division ever? When a 2-9 team is still in contention, yes.

Got my Nexus 6. It's big, but not a pain to use or anything. I have fairly big hands, so that helps a bit. The screen real-estate is amazing. I haven't really noticed any slow-downs from the encryption, but I know I'll definitely turn that off when I get a chance to do it.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 09:24 AM) I personally hate the jury trial system and wish it would go away. But I also don't think this case really shows any reason to keep or get rid of it. One thing that upsets me here, as I read about it, is the way the prosecutor handled the GJ. The fact that it was done so dramatically differently (basically turning it into a trial), and then delivering a bizarre, nearly impossible to understand final instruction set to the jury that made it sounds like they needed to find absolute proof to indict... that is a major failure here. I don't pretend to know what happened on that street, but I am pretty darn sure of these things: 1. There is some awful silliness in this thread on both sides 2. The prosecutor's office who handled the GJ was incompetent 3. NONE of us actually know what happened on that street Yup. I'm hesitant to believe the verdict and I'm hesitant to say Wilson had malicious intent to kill. Judging from Wilson's testimony, a lot of it seemed true. Very descriptive and hard to make up. But at the same time, he had a lot of time to prepare before he had to provide testimony. When you look at some of the stuff StrangeSox posted from the testimony (getting stronger as he was being shot?), it's also hard to believe he was telling the whole truth. And oh, we need police cams. Both on the patrol car and on the police officer. Then this kind of stuff wouldn't be so gray.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 09:21 AM) Go to a school. "Those kids are acting like animals" is probably a daily occurrence. Yeah, black and hispanic kids. I know most of the people here aren't racists, but in general, "animal" is used to describe minorities when they do something out of the norm. Don't pretend that's not true.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 06:06 AM) Wilson's testimony available here "he only gets stronger with every bullet!!!" are you f***ing kidding me I don't know how that makes any sense. Either he was on bath salts or Wilson is straight up lying. That's not normal human behavior in any way.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 12:26 AM) actually the Brown family knew hours before the public announcement. More like 10 minutes... News was delivered at 8. So maybe not as bad as I originally thought.

I'm appalled at how the announcement was handled. To tell the family at the same time you told everyone else on national TV...that's awful. That's like LeBron and The Decision, except this is a much more pressing matter.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Nov 24, 2014 -> 12:27 PM) I'm up 8 and he has the Bills defense left. I'm nervous. Well that didn't end up well. At least your result was known by 8. I got screwed by that last TD by Graham. I lost by 0.08. I think there's a chance I get a stat correction though. Charles got credited with a -9 yard run when it should have been a -9 yard reception. I play in half PPR so it's a .5 point difference. That'd be enough to get me the win.

Rose looked good again. 18 points in 25 minutes on very efficient shooting.

Jimmy Butler might just be the best 2 guard in the East.

Of course Pau would miss a free throw. Watch Hayward drain a 3 to win it...
