QUOTE (mr_genius @ Dec 14, 2012 -> 02:57 PM) yea well, an authoritarian government will fix a lot of problems. every Chicago gang member would be executed if they were in China. so no more gang violence but it causes a ton of other problems to say the least. Clearly just pointing out the difference in weapon effectiveness rather than endorsing Chinese government... Part of this organization, figured I'd pass along: WGNNews: A fraternity at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign already started raising funds for #NewtownShooting victims: http://t.co/9XSw2vv5

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 14, 2012 -> 02:20 PM) China constantly has school stabbings, not shootings. In fact, one happened yesterday I believe. A mentally deranged man went up to a school and just stabbed 20+ kids outside. Of course, a knife is a much less efficient killing tool as a gun, so the death toll was minimal. Yeah, I believe 0 deaths actually

31 fatal U.S. school shootings since Columbine. School shootings in every other country in the world combined since that time: 14.

Do I dare bench Bears D vs. GB in favor of Cinci tonight?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 13, 2012 -> 02:08 PM) There's about 1k tickets left. OSU and Michigan are the bigger draws for whatever reason. Probably because OSU is on a Saturday and Michigan a Sunday. But yeah, pretty s***ty that that many tickets remain...oh well I'll be there.

Seen a good amount of Trumbo/Dickey rumors

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ Dec 12, 2012 -> 04:51 PM) Going to be awfully hilarious when UI continues to pursue Alexander and co from the 2014 class. Due to having a couple of extremely likely transfers.

The Hinrich signing was an atrocity. I still can't believe that we did that, what the f***.

Kirk Hinrich

I always felt like Bielema came off as a monster douche as well. I hope he struggles mightily.

I know there was extensive talk about Keurig's in general but does anyone have recommendations on specific models?

Keppinger isn't thrilling but it certainly seems like we could do worse.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Dec 4, 2012 -> 07:02 PM) lol I guess my pitch would be, you can pay me $150k and I can look constantly confused about football. Cant do much worse can we!? You sound exactly like Tim Beckman!!

I think the money being ridiculous is assumed.

So uhhh Bret Bielema is the new coach at Arkansas... @Matt_HayesSN Do I really need to pull out my Bielema quote from this summer: "We (#B1G) don't want to be like the SEC in any way, shape or form."

After four years of undergrad with absolutely pitiful sports all around I can only hope that as a grad student this basketball team will bring me some joy. Glad they pulled away in the end as they were clearly the better team. Let's go OSU bring it home for the B1G!

PSU was still -1.5 with Frazier out so there is some hope. ILL is turning the ball over like a bunch of f***in morons

Our bench is so improved this year!!!!! oh f***...

Mike Pereira ‏@MikePereira On the TD in CHI. Right foot was down, left toe before knee hit out of bounds. Clear touchdown.

Bucs, Vikings, Seahawks, all 6-4 coming into today go down while the Bears win. Playoff picture infinitely better than 3 hours ago. Now how bout a GB L
