Arkansas Legislative Republican candidate says in his book parents should be able to kill their rebellious children...you can't make this s*** up. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/08/c..._n_1948490.html Again, today's Republican party FTW

and the QB is a dickwad, but who cares.

The other thing people hold against LBJ is that he's a douche, so effing what, so was MJ, Kobe is a dick, KG is a major a-hole... Give me a team full of pricks who win over nice guys who lose. What a lame argument. Go be a Cubs fan.

Ginobili flops, Chris Paul flops, Kobe thinks he gets hacked on every play, wade too. Paul Pierce, etc... Blame the refs.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) No, not everybody. Please stop trying to excuse flopping. Flopping is despicable, it ruins the image of the entire sport. That's why the NBA is taking steps towards penalizing it. Dennis Rodman was a flopper and we didn't care. It's really no big deal. Get mad at refs for falling for those tricks, not the players.

QUOTE (SexiAlexei @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 02:17 PM) What is this nonsense? I can only dislike someone if they are a murderer (I understand the exaggeration)? I do believe the guy is the greatest player in the game right now. However, a lot of stories i've read about the guy paint him as a total dbag. I personally think he is a dbag. Just because he finally started to play up to his bball potential doesn't mean I stopped thinking he was a douche. I will continue to dislike him because of this. It's the same thing with KG. The guy is passionate, and very very good. He also has a ring. He is still a dick, and I dislike him because of it. That being said, I can still respect how good he is, and if he was a Bull, I wouldn't stop being a Bulls fan. But it annoys me when people say he finally won, you can't hate on the guy anymore. You have the right to hate the guy all you want, I never said everyone should stop hating him. In my case, I'm just going to enjoy watching the greatest player right now without hoping he falls flat on his face. I'm way past the disappointment of him not wanting to be a Bull, that's all.

lulz all around

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 01:53 PM) After Rose's knee blow out, there is a chance we never see "Derrick Rose" again. Thank you It may seem heartless but if the Heat were dumb enough to propose that trade (never gonna happen), I wouldn't think twice. I survived watching MJ wear a different jersey, I think I'll manage this one too.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 01:41 PM) Why am I not supposed to hate on someone because they're good? There's no fun in rivalries then. Who cares about disliking scrubs like Blatche? I'm not going to like every NBA player and I don't like LeBron. That being said, I wanted him on the Bulls badly. I would not trade Rose for him though. I would ship all the Bulls to Miami, including Rose, for LBJ but that's just me. He's a once in a generation player.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 09:13 AM) Let me put it this way... I didn't see a single person say they didn't want LeBron, Wade, and/or Bosh on the Bulls during the free agent frenzy of a few years ago. No one said anything like that until AFTER they went to Miami. This LBJ in a Bulls jersey would look gooooooood He's just too good to keep hating on, it's not like he's murdered someone. Lucky Heat "fans"...and if he's finally figured it out;, may the basketball gods have mercy on the rest of us.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 10:50 PM) That is a silly rule. Do you have to just run them over and hope they drop it? Drew would've been killed trying to truck over Miggy. Go in feet first and if Miggy doesn't get out of the way, bury the spikes in him. GO A's

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 12:55 PM) J4L never said the Bulls sucked, he said they had no chance of beating Miami. The Knicks thing was a bit of overhyperbole, but he copped to it and said he was wrong, we just rode it hard and never stopped. And that is why I apologized. We will never know if a healthy Bulls could have beaten Miami, but we do know that Miami beasted last post season and it would have taken a truly herculean effort by the Bulls to beat the Heat last season. It probably wasnt in the cards. The old ass and injured Celtics took them to 7 games, yeah they didn't have Bosh but if Rose freak injury never happens and even with a healthy Bosh, maybe the Bulls beat Miami. yeah, we'll never know for sure.

Just an observation...RZZZA is like J4L on his thoughts on the Bulls only the complete opposite, lol

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 12:05 PM) Derrick needs to come back whenever the medical professionals tell him it's best to come back. He's on a strict rehab/training regimen. Taking the entire year off sounds good to people who have no knowledge in the medical/sports field, but in reality extra rest is not only not a good thing, but it's counterproductive. MJ FTW

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 11:06 AM) Through 5 games, Jay Cutler is rated 2nd best QB in the 4th quarter with a QBR of 118. 5th best in the 2nd half with a QBR of 107 t-25th in the first half with a QBR of 57 He's like the anti-Lebron! Did you miss last season's NBA playoffs and Finals?

On a lighter note...DAT AZZ!!!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 11:50 AM) This we can agree on - though it might not even be this year. In an interview with NBA TV's Steve Aschburner, Derrick Rose mentioned the possibility that he could miss the entire season as he recovers from knee surgery. http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/nba/185...lay-this-season I hope he takes the year off, and I hope Bulls FO is smart enough to tell Rose to not come back too early...we know Rose is a competitor and when he starts feeling good, he's gonna want to come back and help his team. Get that man away from the team and let him recover completely.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 11:16 AM) This team is in the worst possible position without Derrick Rose... Not good enough to compete in any meaningful way, but not bad enough to get a reward for their suckage. This is something like a 40 to 45 win team, misses the lottery because they get the eighth seed. AKA NBA hell. great point, maybe tanking for a lottery pick wouldn't be the worst thing, the Bulls don't pull in top FA talent that's for sure and the core players are young enough to build around.

I guess I'm somewhere between the more pessimistic and the more optimistic fans here, the way Thibs get's these guys to bust ass during the regular season makes me think they'll be a 50+ win team but they aren't ready to challenge LeBron/Heat yet this season. My expectations won't be that high this season.

What I meant when I said that the Packers aren't very good this year is in comparison to the previous two seasons. They are still a top NFC team and yeah, they should be 3-2.

I wouldn't eat worms and roaches if it meant having a night with Kate Upton, much less some damn snake that could one day kill you. The hell was wrong with that guy.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 9, 2012 -> 01:11 PM) Or just one crazy guy who happens to put an R next to his name. It's just more than one guy, Todd Akin, Michelle Bauchmann, Sarah Palin, these last two congressmen in this thread. Obviously there are extremists on both parties but the GOP sure has a knack of getting them elected, these anti-science throwbacks.

The Top 3 teams are San Fran, Houston and Atlanta. I still don't know how real the Bears are because even though they have looked pretty dominant at times, that loss vs the Packers still has me iffy of how good the Bears are since Green Bay just isn't very good this year. The Lovie haters sure have been quiet though, lol.

Nate Silver said the post debate big bounce would eventually fade but he is also saying the race will tighten as we get to election day, he said they natuarally do. Obama just needs to be more forceful next time, the town hall meeting format is more favorable for him anyways. Also, Biden needs to Cheney Ryan, make him look too green, I just hope Biden doesn't stick his foot in his mouth like he is so prone to doing.

Unbelievable... Today's Republican Party FTW
