QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 04:03 PM) hear their appeal and shut the whole f***ing thing down. This. So much this. Every time I try to think it's been enough, Penn State acts like idiots.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 02:49 PM) Guy's pretty clearly a white supremacist Goddamnit.

QUOTE (Wagz @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 01:35 PM) Id pay to see that Mt. Rushmore. 35/56/14/21 (coop is probably my favorite coach out there and deserves the recognition he has earned) Also would like Sale to K up 8+ today to show the Royals his arm is alive and still throwing fire. Mine: Frank/Paulie/Buehrle/Ozzie Buehrle makes it over Pierce/Fox/Aparicio/Lyons/Faber/Jackson/Walsh due to 2005. League was more crowded than 1906/1917

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 07:52 PM) Would you rather hear about more gun laws that would have prevented this law breaking criminal from doing this, then? QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 07:55 PM) I was actually saying that in jest, it wasn't meant to be taken literally or seriously. Whenever a persons response to a situation like this either of the following: 1) "We need more gun laws criminals won't follow.", or 2) "Conceal and carry could have saved all of those people!", those saying those things are to be ignored because they've added nothing to the conversation. Well, I believe there should be more gun laws, but then people will still get guns. People always get illegal s***. That being said, it'd be a nice deterrent. QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 09:21 PM) A sikh activist twitter page is reporting that folks in the area saw a 9/11-related tattoo on the shooter, who was a white middle-aged male. Muslims in the area believe that Sikhs were not the intended target. Godf***ingdamnit.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 01:26 PM) How about that professional front office eh? I enjoy watching Theo burn.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 12:14 PM) Ledger's joker was obviously a better acting job / performance. Hardy's Bane was much more terrifying. I disagree, though both were terrifying. Bane was intimidating in the classic villain sense in that he wanted to be Gotham's reckoning and he had a reason to be evil. Joker was just evil. He just wanted chaos. With Bane there was reasoning. With Joker there was none. The crazy one to me is much more terrifying.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 02:08 PM) You can die in a car wreck every time you drive, cant live afraid. I agree with this.

This is great.

Man, Angels fans love AJ

QUOTE (Tex @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 11:19 AM) So you believe the source *and* more importantly believe we can't possibly do something better than England? I believe we can do better than England. Hell, I believe we are the greatest nation on the planet and can do anything better than any other country if we try. But I'm a liberal, we're pretty crazy that way. No. Liberals hate America. You're not a true liberal.

And I don't want to hear about how someone in the temple should have been packing to return fire.

I hate humanity.

Keep this motherf***er around.

I thought it was really cool, then it wasn't.

That. Was. Nasty.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 01:04 PM) Not only them, but AJ and Beckham too. AJ might not leave but if it is just Peavy/Youk/Beckham, thats still a lot of holes in the rotation to fill How is Beckham leaving? It's his first arbitration year, right?

Brent Morel is pleased. Unless the Sox work out a deal with Youk.

I don't think Floyd is god-awful (he is certainly the most frustrating though, because he's either brilliant or cannon fodder), but I do think he can be shipped in a deal similar to Quentin's if Kenny goes after another righty. It's also worth noting there's a SMALL precedent. If the quartet of Peavy-Sale-Quintana-Liriano goes all '05 Postseason for us, I can see Kenny bringing them all back and then doing a big splash type move, such as the Thome and Vazquez moves combined for another ace. It'd be insane, but I could still see it happening.

QUOTE (Tex @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 12:29 PM) Starting pitcher still picking the uni? That's kind of cool if he did. I miss the black uniforms. Seriously, where are they? f*** these red power ranger ones. And also, Steve finally got his GT. And it's Quin-style.

Second time I saw it I had to do crocodile tears Also, I agree with the notion that Ledger's Joker > Hardy's Bane. Hell, Ledger's Joker > Any movie villain.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 12:33 AM) Yup and f*** Pujols for mouthing off to AJ. I'm letting someone else (STEVE?) start a game thread, but it was a good run Quin. 90% certain it'll be Steve. He'll make the next 10 at minimum. Edit: I was also at the game, if my anger is considered late.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2012 -> 08:01 PM) If I witnessed something illegal/criminal involving a football coach, and I reported it, I'd have zero reason to believe that the university would fire me. This was not the case at Penn State. That is the definition of "Creating a culture of compliance". It permeates the school. Everyone knew who was in charge, and you didn't cross that guy at Penn State. That is not an issue of Spanier, Curley, Paterno, and the other guy whose name I've forgotten. That's not even just a board issue. That's an entire school issue. Two janitors caught Sandusky raping a kid in 2001. They discussed reporting it, and then realized...it would cost them their jobs. THey chose not to report it because they could not afford to lose their jobs. This is not just the janitors at fault. That is the definition of a failed culture of accountability. You can judge those janitors if you want...but that is not a decision they should ever have to make...between their family's lives and doing the right thing. Penn State defied federal law in order to maintain their lack of accountability in the football program, failing to meet compliance reporting steps. That isn't one guy doing that, that is not just the athletic department doing that, that is something permeating the administration. This.
