Quin

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) OK it was decent. Immediate thoughts Margot Robbie was everything anyone wanted Harley Quinn to be. Phenomenal. Leto did a decent job with the Joker. Very creepy. More like Nicholson than Ledger I think but he's his own guy. Not really sure what I think of the Joker/Harley relationship in the movie, it's not romance, the Joker is abusive towards her but then again the movie focused more on her than him and she thinks she's in love with him (not anymore in the comics but still). Viola Davis was a bad ass Amanda Waller. She is one in the comics fast you low key can't f*** with. Will Smith was Will Smith. You've seen him act before. I agree with what has been said about the soundtrack. They were trying to be like Guardians of the Galaxy with the classic tracks but they were doing the most. The CGI on the villain in the second half was unnecessary and looked like a Xbox 360 game from 2007. Ending and the credits scene is setting up the Justice League and the next solo Batman movie. This summed up my thoughts exactly. Only thing I'd like to add is that El Diablo was well done.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 09:28 PM) Home run #700 in a White Sox uniform? All publicity is good publicity, right? I do hope someone picks him up so he can hit #700. I hate the hypocritical love fest for Papi and Piazza, while Bonds and A Rod get pushed aside, they are all guilty of the same thing It's cause Papi is really good at smiling.

Hakeem would be putting up GOAT numbers if he played in this era.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 03:44 PM) I haven't watched MSNBC or Fox News in probably 5 years. They are both horrible and an awful place to get news from. Same. MSNBC is a smidge less terrible if anything because their graphs aren't nearly as terrible.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 03:57 AM) I just saw him on another show tonight and he was reasonable and came across again as brilliant. I think our system is awful. The media pulls "gotcha" on every candidate they want out. I have no idea why Carson was targeted as the buffoon of this election cycle. Every election cycle has somebody that gets picked on early and often. Remember Howard Dean in 2004? That was it for him when he screamed. Ben Carson is not a nut; he's an incredible surgeon and American. I challenge you to listen to his recent interviews when he's not being attacked by media. He's coming across as a bright mind. K. Here's a recent interview where he sounds like a goddamn idiot. https://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/be...DWrA#.qmOo2eNY3 Here's another one where he sounds like a goddamn idiot. https://mediamatters.org/video/2016/08/05/t...gressive/212217 Here he is, once again, sounding like a goddamn idiot. http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archiv...d-trump/494450/

QUOTE (Tony @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 08:50 PM) Pshhhh....Thanks Obama http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/de...llion-obama-era Paging Sean Hannity

QUOTE (bighurt4life @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 01:20 AM) Not true, he was struggling against only some of these guys a few months ago. Most of the players he struggled against in college weren't good enough to be drafted. The players in rookie ball are the top 10% or so (total guess) of the players he struggled against in college plus a few HS'ers, Dominicans, etc... Who are very talented as well. His turn around has been remarkable, no need to even qualify it Oh I know that, stop arguing semantics

QUOTE (ptatc @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 12:14 AM) Or does it mean that in rookie ball many if the 18 year olds are swinging at everything. While it good to see him do well, I don't trust big performances in rookie ball. I would wait until he has a couple of season against older competition before proclaiming his delivery improved, unless of course there has been videos or live reports of the changes. Someone feel free to prove me wrong, but Great Falls tends to be college players while the AZL is high schoolers. Hansen was struggling against the same batters a few months ago and got sent to the bullpen and is now dealing.

QUOTE (jamesdiego @ Aug 7, 2016 -> 12:38 AM) Ask for an unreasonable king's ransom for Sale. I could see teams then ponying up less, but still an amazing deal(for us) for Q. Teams might be low balling the Sox since it seemed like Kenny got the short end of the stick on some deals in the past. And teams might think they could get another over on the Sox. Don't f***ing sell low on Sale or Q. The asking price is not too high. And yes, please no god damn ex Sox player as the next manager please? I'd be happy with Martinez or Alomar. It should of been either one of them the last time! F*** Er, Alomar is an ex-Sox player.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 03:02 PM) Nobody is going crazy. Problem with Soxtalk: Young players struggle in A ball and they automatically are bad picks. Young players do well in rookie ball and it's because it's rookie ball. Wanting to see him in AA is a bit crazy.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 03:05 PM) Yet you guys have no interest in seeing what he had to say on Hannity. The best and brightest cannot run for President anymore cause the media will not rest until all opponents of the favored Democratic candidate have been appropriately buried and tagged as nutjobs/totally unfit for office. Would you be interested in hearing Martin O'Malley on Chris Matthews?

QUOTE (ptatc @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 02:48 PM) Don't go crazy on him yet. It is rookie ball where he should dominate. The control is the major key. This is a guy who was getting rocked by college players earlier this year, to suddenly looking like the early favorite to go 1-1.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 02:16 PM) And don't forget that Obamacare is the worst thing since slavery. Child labor? Jim Crow? Women not being able to vote? Minor inconveniences. Japanese internment, Vietnam War, ignoring AIDs because it was a "gay" disease. Hell, I'm surprised Obamacare wasn't the worst thing since the King decided the price of tea.

Don't forget this nugget... "I think the likelihood of Hitler being able to accomplish his goals would have been greatly diminished if the people had been armed," Carson said in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer on Thursday. "I'm telling you, there is a reason these dictatorial people take the guns first." Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2015/10/ben-...4#ixzz4GZoVRypU

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 11:15 AM) Hansen 6 IP 1 Hit 1 Walk 11 Ks Does he see AA this year? Not a chance. QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Aug 6, 2016 -> 11:30 AM) up to .207 on the year if you include the .166 at kannapolis. Aren't you a ray of sunshine

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 11:10 PM) I'm talking about now. Bill is going to be in the White House and his character could be questioned over and over if the media wanted to do that. If I can't reference Hannity, who the heck do you guys accept? Meghan Kelly? Meghan McCain? Rush? Give me a list of those you'll listen to. Hannity is at least as qualified as Chris "I love Hillary" Matthews. I also hate Chris Matthews. He's just as bad as Hannity. Go with non-talking heads. Try to find things based in fact, not fiction.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 10:40 PM) Hansen 6.0 IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, 11K. Night done. Promotion please. When the Sox said they saw something, they weren't kidding.

Oh my god Hansen.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 04:07 PM) I stand by my comment that he's brilliant. He got no positive coverage because he's Republican IMO. The media did not want to create a new Obama candidate, somebody to take the country by storm. It was Hillary's turn in the media's eyes and they want eight years of Hillary. He's not a nutjob. You can't judge a guy off a few sound bites. lmao if the media wanted to create a new Obama candidate, Ben Carson is the exact opposite direction.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 04:10 PM) Been thinking about this since I heard it on Hannity ... Media has gone after Trump's wife aggressively. How come Bill is off limits? Why aren't we hearing story after story about his mistresses and getting their stories? Also stories on how Hillary's marriage partner was a predator. Monica may have been over 21 but she was a fricking intern. That's predatorish behavior by Bill. If Trump's family is under fire, the media at least could aggressively pursue the Bill is a womanizer theme. There's no way after Monica he became Mr. Faithful. Doesn't work that way. How bout uncovering some mistresses, etc., and interviewing them. Hillary got off on Benghazi. No hard questions. She got off on the email thing. No hard questions. All she gets is love from the media. Ok, Hannity is s***. Stop referencing Hannity. Hannity is the hypocrite to end all hypocrites. And the GOP spent $7 million dollars on Benghazi, thats not off easy. Finally, do you remember how much s*** Michelle Obama got? Or I dunno, how much s*** First Lady Hillary Clinton got?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 01:22 PM) To be fair, isn't that standard for the NBA players? At least, I remember the Dream Team doing that in Spain. And miss out on the legendary Olympic Village debauchery?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 11:31 AM) It's ridiculous how structurally favorable things are for more rural (Republican) people. Senate obviously lol, Californians get 1 Senator per 19,166,260 people, Wyoming-ans get 1 per 291,329. With capping the House at 435 and then Democratic voters just naturally clustering together more than Republican, there's a huge advantage there even before you get to gerrymandering. You got several million more votes than Republicans nationally? Enjoy your 10% deficit in House seats! [waiting for post complaining about how Republicans don't get voices heard over big cities]

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 06:22 AM) Funny that this could have been the Chicago year. The IOC hasn't exactly been adept at picking locations.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 11:00 AM) At least they're not sitting on it for a year and then having the prosecutor come out and make statements like "these are cops, we have to take our time and do our jobs, we can't just rush into an indictment like we would with a normal person!" QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 5, 2016 -> 11:02 AM) The bad thing already happened. The next bad thing that could happen is it was sweeped under rug. This, to this point, is how these things should be handled. Fair, this is being handled much better.
