So...what if Avi's finally figured it out?

Celtics are lucky to be in this honestly. They got absolutely owned on the boards. Lopez was boxing out 2 guys in the paint at times and getting put-backs/boards. If the Bulls were able to shoot like 30% on 3s, they'd be up by 10.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Apr 16, 2017 -> 10:18 AM) I'm certain you are wrong about this. There's been a decade-long anti-Hillary campaign going on within conservative media. And it worked! She "screwed up" twice and that's all conservative media will ever talk about when it comes to her. Benghazi and emails, that's basically what it comes down to. I have no idea how certain people can despise her so much. I never liked Bush, but I don't think I ever hated him. Same goes for McCain and Romney. Whatever the conservative media is doing, it's working. They're somehow making people hate democrat politicians with a flaming passion.

Does Davidson remind anyone of David Freese when he's at the plate? The two have similar swings/stances.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 06:13 PM) He realizes Lincoln was Republican, doesn't he? Oh lord and to think a lot of Republicans bring up that Lincoln freed the slaves every once in a while.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 02:28 PM) If Tyrus Thomas stays hot like he did in Game 1 vs Boston in 09, watch out! We also need Rose to score 36 points in game 1.

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 04:18 PM) but none are on thursday, and the streak is only for home games. Game 3 is on TNT. I honestly think this team just plays better when they're on national TV. Guys like Rondo and Wade typically perform better in the playoffs too. It'll be interesting. I think Celtics in 6, but the games should at least be competitive. Boston has the lowest point differential of any 1 seed since the 1970s.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 13, 2017 -> 02:36 PM) Why is the media hyping this so much? In 2016 the Pentagon averaged 3x the amount of weight of that bomb everyday. And that's a conservative estimate. It's a not a good idea to allow Trump to think the media will be nice to him if he wages war. News organizations in this country LOVE war, cause they actually have real s*** to cover as opposed to having talking heads argue about relatively unimportant issues 12 hours a day.

Most of the games are going to be on TNT. And you know how well the Bulls do on TNT...

Hopefully Smith stays healthy for more than one game this time around. He got called up last year and got hurt immediately.

No wonder he was bleeding so much, he lost two of his teeth.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 11:54 PM) It will be interesting if playoff Wade and Rondo show up Playoff Rondo is part of the reason why I wanted the team to make the playoffs. It could get interesting.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 03:28 PM) Ok guys, last night of regular season. I am conflicted on if I am rooting for the Bulls to make the playoffs (though they have no reason not to at home vs. Net's who's setting their best players). Here are the scenarios: - an L and Miami W - Bulls out (better pick, and puts more pressure to make changes to the FO, we can dream) - a W and Pacers W - Bulls 8th seed (likely face Celtics in the first round, whom they were 2-2 in the regular season against) - a W and Pacers L - Bulls 7ths seed (likely face Cavs, and no chance in hell against Lebron) I think it's no chance in hell vs. anyone but Toronto. That ship has sailed though.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 02:56 PM) Very interesting piece here on whether the past of David Deo (United passenger injured when getting dragged off flight) should have been dredged up by media outlets as part of this story. What do you folks think? Should the fact Dr. Deo 13 years ago got in SERIOUS trouble with the law been a part of this story or not? I have mixed emotions. It seems to me it is pertinent for folks to wonder a bit about the victim of this atrocity, hence fair game to write about who Dr. Deo is and what happened in his past. I enjoyed reading this item, however. It's not too often newspaper people take the type of position this author did. I have no forceful opinion on this either way. http://www.freep.com/story/opinion/columni...tion/100334210/ His last name is Dao, Grag.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 06:10 PM) He still issued a written statement that implies Jews weren't Germans. https://www.facebook.com/PressSec/posts/1666955626934539 And in his apology to Wolf Blitzer, he messed up again by defending Trump's efforts to "destabilize the region" Just fire him already. He's clearly not fit for the job. If you're a press secretary and you keep screwing up verbally, you shouldn't be the press secretary.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 04:38 PM) http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/11/politics/iva...raph/index.html Nice to know Ivanka's now a military advisor as well http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/11/politics/iva...ouse/index.html "Ivanka is by his side in Washington. She is not involved in everything. I think she comes and goes with issues she deeply cares about but when you get to a certain level of power a lot of times, and you see this in business too, a lot of times people will say yes just because you happen to be the boss...I think it gives you a sounding board who is a little bit more unconventional than the 37 people that might happen to be standing round a table at that one time who just want to appease." Totally fascinating, right? What we learn from Eric Trump here is that: 1) Ivanka is the person in the White House who can tell her father "no" and 2) her installation as a formal adviser -- with a West Wing office -- might well be in reaction to the family's concerns that Trump wasn't getting the right sort of advice from "37 people that might be standing around a table at that one time who just want to appease." I'd rather have it be Ivanka than Steve Bannon.

Anderson's gonna have a lot of issues with Miller's slider.

Saladino with a good AB. Bad luck though.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 04:49 PM) If he keeps pitching like this, we may contend. We may be buyers instead of sellers. Yeah I really doubt that.

Shields' velocity looks way better. He's hitting 92. We might be able to flip him at the deadline if he's serviceable.

Spicer must hold a lot of UA stock. This will get them out of the news cycle lol.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 01:36 PM) Borussia Dortmund - Monaco CL match postponed as a couple of explosions went off near the Dortmund team bus on the way to their stadium. Only one player taken to the injury with minor injury from flying glass, not Prince Pulisic. It was Marc Bartra. Pretty f***ed up.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 09:21 AM) Oh god, now they are digging up dirt on this passenger. AWful. Dude won $250,000 at the World Series of Poker. He just got more badass. I don't think most reasonable people would care what this guy did prior to getting violently dragged out of the plane. That does not matter. It's not like deserves it based on what he did previously. This isn't just about him, it's about consumer rights. I don't think United understands that.

QUOTE (KagakuOtoko @ Apr 7, 2017 -> 06:37 PM) I'm such a gambling addict. I saw let's make a bet and immediately got excited. Are you guys betting that the suspect is muslim or something? We got ourselves a bookie!
