Could this be a dying bit of furniture
QUOTE (JPN366 @ Feb 25, 2012 -> 11:42 PM) My mother is convinced that when my son enters high school in a little over a decade, all of his books will be on an e-reader. This is because textbooks suck and don't belong on book shelves.

2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread
I know I'm late, but f*** the refs from the KU game. Flip didn't touch Tyshawn Taylor in OT and was fouled out. But man, Denmon is a cold-blooded man. He's gonna go Kemba on the NCAA tournament.

Adam Dunn on the Chris Sale diet?
QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Feb 27, 2012 -> 10:58 AM) Dunno should have a lot more speed with his new physique. Perhaps he's a candidate to bat leadoff Dunn will hit 50 HR and swipe 50 bases while playing Gold Glove D in CF.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 06:12 PM) Tim Hardaway in Celeb/Legend game. Thought NBA washed their hands of him after his ugly homophobic rant. Reuniting Run-TMC is more important.

Braun tests postitive for PEDs

Cool sketch of Comiskey from the 40's
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 02:54 PM) Am I the only one that has no recollection of his first Sox game? The best I can do is remember the first game I went to without adults. I was 3. Frank Thomas hit a bomb. I thought it went out of the entire stadium. We were sitting lower deck, between first and home. I know nothing else. Only Frank Thomas was the s***.

2011-2012 NBA Season Thread
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 03:50 PM) No, the point is actually simple. Rex Grossman was the best QB on earth for the first 6 weeks in 2006. Then reality hit. Jeremy Lin has looked like one of the best PGs on earth for most of the last three weeks. Reality has already started for him. Jeremy Lin went from a nice story to embarrassing spectacle. He's got his own all-star weekend press conference later tonight. Are you serious? LeBron is having one of the most spectacular seasons the game has ever seen, and Lin gets his very own press conference? Unacceptable. I cannot wait until this annoying ass mosquito is exposed. How hard is this to understand. Grossman was injured like a motherf***er and didn't really play in the pros a whole lot until 2006. Then he was fantastic for the first six weeks of 2006. Jeremy Lin was also an unknown in the pros. Starts games, looks fantastic. Both have been brought back to Earth. Badger, you're making an argument no one is making. No one said anything about college careers.

Braun tests postitive for PEDs
He isn't guilty, but he sure isn't innocent. I can't stand the Brewers fans on my floor that love to champion the following: LeBron, Wade, Lin, Tebow, and Braun. God I l'd love to see one of their idols fall, especially Braun because while I liked him in the past, if he's innocent he's not resorting to procedural error to cover his ass.

The team is pretty much set.
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 01:45 PM) I almost want to throw the "I'd ban myself" cliche post for Morel hitting 30 homers in a season. I just can't see it happening in the game today. If he does, I'll let Joe nickname him and roll with it, no questions asked.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 11:08 AM) I think he's plenty quick, and that's been proven the last few weeks. His ball handling is absolutely something he can work on. Good players work on it all of their careers. Just like a jump shot, which players routinely become better at as they get older. IMO his ceiling is a poor man's Nash. Someone who's not crazy quick, not crazy athletic, but someone who has a high bball IQ especially with the pick and roll. If you will recall, that type of PG thrives in a Dantoni system. Homeless man's Nash*

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 01:01 PM) Brent Morel is the next next Jose Bautista! If Morel becomes even close to a 30 HR guy and Beckham returns to his projections, we'd have a very, very nice middle of the order punch with Beckham, Viciedo, Morel.

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 04:22 AM) Contact customer service, I bet they would do something about that. I sent in a "Report a Problem" but suffice to say this pisses me off. I paused the downloads, but I doubt that does anything. Just have to wait back from Customer Service and if I don't by tomorrow, I'll call in.

Technology catch-all thread
I officially despise Apple now. I wanted to download some music I had purchased on my other laptop, so my computer said I had "165 awaiting download," I figured them to be the stuff I have already purchased on iTunes, so I hit "Download now". It then proceeded to start downloading The Complete Led Zeppelin, that I had pre-ordered, but never payed for, 4 years ago as I decided against wanting the item. It charged $100 f***ing dollars automatically. No requesting confirmation or anything. I'm really, really mad.

2011-2012 NBA Season Thread
QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Feb 23, 2012 -> 06:12 PM) I don't know where to start with this... Altering shots? Ibaka? Jordan? Gasol? Bynum? Hibbert? Chandler? Camby? I mean, come on. I love Asik as much as anyone else, but......come on. Omer with Noah's offensive games is better than Bynum? Hibbert? The Gasols? Ok. I used some J4L-esque hyperbole. But Asik is the second best defensive center in the league. Maybe DeAndre is better, but that's it. Ibaka isn't a center, Bynum is good, Hibbert isn't that great defensively, Marc's calling card isn't D, Chandler is good but I take Asik over him, and Camby's heyday is behind him. And I meant all of Noah's offensive game, passing included. I keep forgetting Bynum is actually healthy this year and beasting. Asik would be even with M. Gasol (Pau is a PF) and yes, better than Hibbert.
