Just think, if you eliminate the extra point, how can Tony Romo botch a snap on the PAT to lose his team the game?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 10:40 PM) Yeah. Too bad he doesn't hang out on message boards making fun of athletes. He's such a failure in life. I'm pretty sure Richard Sherman's a smart guy, but a 3.7 GPA in communications isn't proof he is.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jan 19, 2014 -> 08:57 PM) I heard Sherman was actually a pretty smart guy, it's sad that he decides to be all hood like that. He went to Stanford and apparently had good grades (you kind of need to to get into Stanford, even as a football player). I'm pretty sure it's all a persona to intimidate his opponents, but it's just f***ing annoying.

Seahawks get stuffed on 4th and goal. I'm glad the Seahawks won't win this game because of how blind the referees are.

You should change the title. They're going to allow a challenge system starting next year, along with umpire-decided reviews after the 7th inning. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseba...for-2014-season What's managers can challenge:

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 09:38 AM) Just unlocked, rooted, and flashed a ROM on my One earlier this week. I feel all grown up now. I agree that there are not a lot of beginner's resources and you'll have to get a minimum of adequacy with command prompt unless a kind developer has created a tool for your device Once you do it once, it becomes pretty easy.

Looks pretty simple to me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...79#post45692679 Rooting usually won't cause anything to go wrong (it's hard to brick an Android device).

FAQ and Forum on Advanced Stats
QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 10:13 AM) To try and make this as short as possible, bWAR tells more about past performance, but fWAR tells more about future performances. It's more of a true talent indicator. Like for pitching, fWAR uses Fielding Independent Pitching numbers to figure in the calculation, whereas bWAR uses runs, and team wins. You get more outliers it seems with bWAR than fWAR. I think the large majority of the Sabr community would say that fWAR is the better number to use overall. bWAR uses team wins? What do you exactly mean by that?

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jan 16, 2014 -> 02:54 AM) Just now finding out what NFC tags are and am really interested in splitting a pack of them with my brother. If these things were able to be used with the screen off, and had like a 3 foot range instead of a 3 inch range, they would be immensely useful. Instead I'll use a couple and see how they do. Root, install Xposed Framework, and install NFC Screen Off Enabler (I think that's the name). You can have certain tags unlock your screen. NFC will only work within about an inch proximity. NFC is extremely useful in the car. Right now, I have it enabling bluetooth and unlocking my phone. Then when it connects to my car's bluetooth, it enables GPS, starts my music app, starts music playback, and opens up a car portal app so I can choose what Map app to open. I just put my phone on my dock and it does this all by itself. No more messing with my phone for a minute before starting my drive.

NBA Thread 2013-2014
QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 15, 2014 -> 12:08 PM) When kids tried to emulate MJ or Kobe, it meant taking fadeaways or tough shots, with Iverson it was a killer crossover. LeBron inspires them to flop If it was 2-3 years ago, missing clutch shots would have been another way of #lebroning.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 15, 2014 -> 09:28 AM) Feels like shots fired... http://deadspin.com/sometimes-lebron-wishe...dium=socialflow "I get jealous sometimes when I look over at KD and he's like 16-for-32 (from the field) and then 14-for-34. ... Man," James told ESPN.com's Tom Haberstroh. "But there are games where I have it going, and then at the end of the game, I'm like, damn, I shot just 12-for-16? Why don't I get up at least six or seven more? I definitely notice it." And yeah, LeBron is the s*** and way better than anyone else in basketball right now. Anyone who argues is just silly. I do like that he threw that 14/34 in there, though. Durant's shooting 49% on the season, there's not too many 14/34's going on! Nobody should wish to shoot the ball 35 times a game like Durant has to right now.

I've been playing winter ball down here in Austin. I was struggling like crazy in my men's league (think I was 2 for 12 or something before last night). Changed my stance a bit and got two homers last night.
