  1. Relevant to previous conversation, but long distance relationships take their toll. Smart phones help immensely, but I just got in I've such relationship and the critical things we've hit on include... 1) Making sure we talk almost every day on the phone 2) Have a date for it to end, so once I'm done with school. 3) Plan out the visits. We just scheduled a visit every month for the next year last night. 4) Intent. She and I agreed you don't get in these relationships without the endgame being marriage. Her sister got mad and said we're moving too fast, but we've been good friends for quite some time it helps.

  3. The only reason Hillary is in this is because she has thicker skin than everyone else.

    This Era

    QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 20, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) To be fair, a guy like Ed Walsh is a Hall of Famer. That is one hell of a standard, and Chris Sale isn't there yet. Exactly

    This Era

    QUOTE (Deadpool @ May 20, 2016 -> 02:22 PM) Pitching across eras is really hard. Harder than batting even, but it's really hard to argue with longevity with one team. If Sale has real post-season success, it's a no brainer. If Sale signs here past his current contract, it's a no-brainer when he reaches the late point in his career. However, if the organization fails to make the postseason during Sale's tenure and he signs elsewhere (the latter of which seems fairly likely), he'll trail the likes of Buehrle and Lyons. I don't think it's a stretch to say he's the most talented pitcher we have ever had. Easily the most talented, yes. I just dislike when people forget the past.

    This Era

    QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ May 20, 2016 -> 12:16 PM) He already is. Ted Lyons spent 21 seasons with the team and is a HoFer. Ed Walsh had the first championship for the team, designed Comiskey and had some of the most dominant seasons ever. Sale's in striking distance though.
  8. QUOTE (Markbilliards @ May 19, 2016 -> 11:58 PM) I really want to see Eddy Alvarez get it going. It feels shocking to see him do so poorly after dominating so much in his past seasons. He's not striking out, so I feel like his average will start going up soon
  9. Flying Serpent nerds to reclaim his fWAR title from Sale.
  10. QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ May 19, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) The good news: A. They won B. Sale is incredible The bad news: A. Offense almost shut down by a pitcher with an ERA of about five and a half. B. Had scoring chances (man on third - no out and get...nothing!) and wasted every one of them. Still it's a win for a change. Now let's see if someone OTHER than Sale can win a baseball game this weekend. Q needs to pitch well and getting him some offense would be nice...(especially since Gonzales goes Saturday, that could get ugly..) Q by the way is 1-6 against Kansas City in his career. Mark To be fair, Quintana has been the victim of some of the lousiest support in history. And he's improved still this year.
  11. QUOTE (farmteam @ May 19, 2016 -> 05:46 PM) Before I head down the wikipedia rabbit hole, wasn't Tammany Hall pretty much done by the time Al Smith rolled around? Nah, double checked it.
  12. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 19, 2016 -> 05:05 PM) Did you read the Baltimore story I posted? Hillary supporters/lovers just skip past all the crap she's done. Like Hillary, just laugh it off with one laugh. I never said Drumpf was Saint Nick. He may be a scumbag, but Bernie ... he's another story. He may have a shred of integrity. I did. I also know US history. More corrupt off the top of my head include Aaron Burr, Andrew Jackson, Al Smith, Franklin Pierce and Richard Nixon. The first three were all associated with Tammany Hall, Pierce essentially tricked his way into the presidency and hastened the road to the civil war and Nixon, well, that needs no explaining.
  13. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 19, 2016 -> 04:52 PM) With all due respect, Hillary supporters always have a comeback when something cut-and-dried atrocious is pointed out about her. I stand by Warren's short, LOLish explanation of the Hillary flip flop. She is the most crooked candidate we've ever had IMO. Illini ... you say Hillary over walking disaster Drumpf. You forgot ... Bernie is still breathing. Just give it to Bernie this time and see how he does. Hillary and Drumpf are evil; at least Bernie isn't evil. I'd ask if this is a joke, but you're completely irrational on this topic so who cares.

    Graduate School

    After this summer, one semester and documentary left. Then I'm free. Grad School can really eat away at you.
  15. A+ trolling DA. Bumping a thread and covering the tracks.

    QUOTE (GoSox05 @ May 18, 2016 -> 11:22 AM) Yeah, kinda. That Hulk movie just seemed so distant from the current Marvel universe. It was out 4 or 5 years before Avengers. I don't think they ever really talked about any of the events that happened in the Hulk movie. They only usually vaguely reference it as the Harlem incident. Big reason that Thunderbolt Ross was in Civil War was because Russo Bros. wanted to bring that movie back in the fold.

    QUOTE (GoSox05 @ May 18, 2016 -> 10:46 AM) Might be a nice change of pace to not have origin story movies. Some of these characters have been around since the 40's, everyone knows the story, just get to it. I don't think JL will be full of origin stories, but more like quick introductions to each character. Maybe like how Avengers introduced the Hulk in the first movie. Hulk had a solo film. They just re-cast Edward Norton for Mark Ruffalo. The character who had been introduced least was Hawkeye, who had like a 5 minute cameo in Thor.
