QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 23, 2012 -> 06:09 PM) 30 whole dollars? So innovative of them! Instead of making a $120 profit on that iPad they made $90 instead. How generous!

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 22, 2012 -> 01:46 PM) Apple is so arrogant, they don't have a "Black Friday" sale, they have a "One-Day Apple Shopping Event" http://store.apple.com/us/browse/holiday/s...etail-bf-teaser Apple's too cool to have a Black Friday sale.

Just saw a ESPN article saying Carimi will be demoted. Jonathan Scott will most likely start in his place.

I can't stop listening to the Skrillex song from Black Ops II (when you are in the Solar Club). Best slow-mo shootout music ever.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 11:03 PM) who knew 3 additional inches would count for so much In this case, it's 9 square inches.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 10:23 PM) If I go for Nexus 7 (price concerns), what do I lose from the 10 inch models like Nexus 10, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, ASUS, etc other than size? The size difference is quite drastic actually, but if that's not your concern, Nexus 7 is great.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 06:04 PM) I'm just not sold on a keyboard dock. I mean, laptops. I got one for my iPad. Very useful. I hate typing with the on-screen keyboard.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 04:08 PM) David Purcey was good one year Coop can fix him.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 02:17 PM) I truly love DWise, but his time has passed. Very bad move for the Sox as they start to move forward for the season. Maybe Robin will be able to read his hot streaks and sit his ass the minute he looks like he's entering one of those tailspins. When he's hot he's damn good. When he's not, ugh. Wow, Greg bashing DWeezy? Since when?

They should be named the Silicon Valley A's.

QUOTE (shakes @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 12:45 PM) This one is my favorite: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2525630 Shea Hillenbrand was a mediocre baseball player in his prime who was also a clubhouse cancer. Look how he jumped around and only had a 6 year a career. Gibbons is actually a good strategic manager. With AA's background in sabermetrics, I totally understand the hire. Maybe Gibbons won't deal with idiots this time around.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 21, 2012 -> 12:50 PM) With Wise, Danks, and Tekotte all being LH hitting OF's, I think De Aza is gone. Alejandro will be getting a raise and doesn't feel as comfortable in CF. I don't necessarily agree that it would be the best move but I think the writing is definitely on the wall. De Aza is expected to get $2 million this year. With how he performed last year, that's well worth it. De Aza is an average to above average leadoff hitter. The other three guys you mentioned are AAAA bench players.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 09:51 PM) Chone Figgins DFA'd by Seattle. Can now be signed for minimum. Kenny always gets his guy! I wouldn't mind Figgins as a cheap bench player. Better than Rey Olmedo or ODawg. That's for sure.

I usually just read my RSS feed, which is a combination of ESPN, Yahoo Sports, MLB Trade Rumors, FanGraphs, Engadget, Gizmodo, The Verge, Joystiq, etc.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 05:40 PM) How does this stack up? https://blackfriday.bestbuy.com/computers+a...b+memory++black I personally prefer Asus tablets over non-Nexus Samsung ones. Plus you can get the keyboard dock for the Transformer. It's pretty nice.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 01:41 PM) LOL. Don't talk about a Marlin in a Marlin thread. Yes sir. Ozzie's not a Marlin anymore.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 12:26 PM) Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan How excited are the Marlins to have Yunel Escobar? They were calling around shopping him last week, before the mega-deal was even official. Rick Hahn should give them a call. They'll probably give us Escobar for nothing.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 12:30 PM) Was he hurt last year? Looking at his stats, he was decent until last year, and he only played in 66 games. No, he just sucked. Historically, Raburn's always been f***ing awful in the first half. Then August and September come around and he's Barry Bonds.

So here's a question who has the Kindle Fire. I'm thinking of buying my brother (10) one of these since it has the nice FreeTime thing for kids. So is it worth the extra $40 to get the Kindle Fire HD over the $160 Kindle Fire?

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 20, 2012 -> 12:09 AM) Unfortunately, its a 100 I don't think I have Should I look at getting a better 7 you think or one of these ~300 10" ones? Nexus 7 is solid, but that's a 7 inch tablet... There's always the iPad 2...although that's $399 (nvm). But that's more dated than that Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. It depends on who you are buying it for. If you're buying it for grandma, Amazon Kindle Fire HD with the 8.9 inch screen or the Nook 9 inch tablet they just came out with. Those are targeted towards people who aren't as tech-savvy and I believe all those are around $300. If it's for somebody who likes to tweak stuff, go with Android tablets.

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 19, 2012 -> 11:57 PM) So why not this: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-1...0838&sr=1-5 compared to the Nexus 10 at 100 dollars more? The Nexus 10 is the best 10" Android tablet you can buy. The screen is ridiculous, it's vanilla Android, and it will get updated first. No Touchwiz crap, no waiting on Samsung. Did I mention it has the fastest non A-50 series ARM chip on the planet? That $100 is well spent.

Are the Niners seriously challenging when they're up 23 with 9 minutes left? Stop wasting everybody's time Harbaugh.

Carimi's play has been beyond embarrassing.
