Kasich just seems like a safer Republican choice. Cruz and Trumps are just too much of nutters.

QUOTE (Doc Edwards Shot @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 10:08 AM) On that note, I don't get America's obsession with caffeine either - all that Starbucks coffee crap, Red Bulls, etc. It's like half the population can't function without a coffee in their hands these days. I think caffeine is pretty universal. If it's not coffee it's most likely tea.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 02:37 AM) Well, considering the acids in most pops are citric acids, yeah, I'd say they are. Don't use it for mouth wash. However, you know what acid is way more powerful than the acids found in fruits and pop? Stomach acid. Wrong. It's phosphoric acid. That's what gives the carbonated beverages their syrupy tangy taste.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 5, 2016 -> 01:43 AM) Braves fan sure do hate Beckham...after one game Did you find the Beckham error that pretty much cost them the game?

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) I'm with you. I never drink pop anymore. My liquid vices are orange juice and Izzy's occasionally. When I need some carbonation though, I always go for a Lime La Croix. One is naturally occurring and one is mass produced to be sugary s***.

Sox gonna Sox lolololol

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) Dude... VPN. I said it earlier, there's no reason to ever suffer a blackout even if you live right there at Wallace and 35th. Teach me about VPN!

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 07:40 PM) Other teams/networks let you do that? Thought that was an MLB archaic blackout type rule You can stream games through the fox sports go app if you're in market and have a log in.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 07:47 PM) That's languages. Interracial marriages are fine so long as you speak the same language. Mind blown!

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 07:02 PM) Took one day for Braves fans to hate Gordon Beckham. I saw that. Very un-Beckham like error if you ask me.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 01:11 PM) I'm a pretty religious person and I've never been able to find in the Bible 1) that interracial marriage is sinful and 2) even if it is sinful, that it's OK to treat sinners that way. I'm pretty sure Jesus related to sinners very differently. It's gotta be in there somewhere right? I remember some white mother lecturing me about when I was a kid that God doesn't want races mixing. It's why we were all scattered after the tower of babel.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 01:23 PM) You know what also does that? Citric acid. Stay woke people, stay away from oranges. Not all acids are the same hoss.

Has CSN Chicago got with the times and allow people to stream the games yet, like most other teams?

Wouldn't that be Paxson's call?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 01:24 PM) I don't think Gar is going to be around. If he is, Bulls fan better f***ing riot.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 11:32 AM) http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-...-race/82584514/ Trump and Cruz got a combined 83.6% of the vote in the Mississippi Republican Primary. It's probably not ridiculous to assume that most, if not all, the members of his church, community and his mother-in-law who "don't allow that black and white shacking" are Trump or Cruz supporters. These are the kinds of attitudes that these two are appealing to. That's them exercising their religious freedoms or liberties. You know.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 11:55 AM) I only drink Coke when I go to Portillos but god damn is it good. I was a fiend growing up. My parents wouldn't buy anything but Diet Coke growing up because my mom didn't want us drinking the sugar. I'd go to a restaurant with free refills and look to make up for it. I once drank a 2 liter of Mountain Dew on the bus ride home from 7th grade. I don't drink Mountain Dew anymore. I'm surprised your organs are still in tact. Have you seen some of those Mt. Dew videos where they dissolve small animal carcasses? Yeah, people are putting that stuff in your bodies. Yeesh.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 11:57 AM) It seems to me Rose is better when Butler is out, and Butler is better when Rose is out. Have one of them come off the bench. I've been saying this all season. Preferably Rose.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 10:46 AM) I drink at least 24 oz of Diet Coke a day, often a lot more, and I'm fine, but I understand diet pop can have bad effects on people's weight too. Ultimately I think people are responsible for what they eat but I don't wanna get too filibustery. I'm not trying to crusade to stop people from drinking what they like. I just personally don't get it America's obsession with sugar infused carbonated drinks. That is all.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 10:10 AM) I like Diet Coke. I am in shape. Do you drink like 4-5 of them a day?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 09:56 AM) I do agree with obesity and diabetes problem . I read where the average American has almost doubled it's calorie intake from drinks the past 20 years. The small coke at McDonalds (I know, another poison factory) is the same size as the large coke in the 70s. Free refills etc. But in moderation, it does hit the spot. I do agree about the plastic bottles, but every once in a while a bottle or can of Coke is delightful. In moderation, nothing will truly kill you but people buy a slew of these s*** drinks and drink multiple cans a day. It's really bad.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 4, 2016 -> 09:49 AM) Lol, you might as well just say no to everything at the ballpark You are right and this is why I sneak food in.

They both suck. America's obesity and diabetes problems start with these damned carbonated sugar drinks. Just say no.

Villanova +3 sounds good tonight. What do you guys think?
