**2016 TV Watercooler Thread**
QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 27, 2016 -> 09:01 PM) Shameless: So Svetlana is stealing from the Alibi right? Like Andy in shawshank while doing the books? Just a thought. I think she is just using Kevin and V and put in some kind of paperwork that the bar goes to her if something happens or already changed over ownership somehow.

2016-2017 NCAA football thread
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 26, 2016 -> 03:28 PM) Hope PSU wins. Would rather have a break before the playoff If Penn State wins the Big 10, I really hate that Ohio State who lost to the Big 10 Champ is going to be in the playoff and Penn State won't. Just seems so wrong to me

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 26, 2016 -> 03:39 PM) I was at one of the iberostar resorts for a wedding six years ago. It was the mid tier one and it was okay. Well that doesn't sound great lol. Unfortnately I think Puerto Rico will probably be out of our price range. Trying to find an all-inclusive place

QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 25, 2016 -> 03:22 PM) lol, I just want people to be like "I get my wife/girlfriend X from Y and here's a link." Essentially outsource my Christmas shopping to you all. Mine wanted a Fitbit that was waterproof so I got her the Fitbit Flex 2 from Walmart for $70 (usually $100).

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Nov 24, 2016 -> 06:18 PM) I've had Fire TV with Kodi for several months. Would never go back. I've become a huge cricket fan. Not really, but I could if I wanted. It has been working well so far. Only watched 1 show but it went pretty smoothly with a few minor hiccups but nothing to make unwatchable

Technology catch-all thread
QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Nov 23, 2016 -> 05:24 PM) I had a Surface Pro 3 and it was probably the best machine I ever owned. I used the main dock which had sliding ends to plug in. Apparently, now they sell a USB Hub style docking station that I'm not a fan of. Anyway, the machine was a beast. I'd write notes in OneNote, use Miracast to send it to any one of our Flatscreens in the conference room, configure switches and routers and at home. It was by far the best tablet I ever owned, and laptop I ever owned. But hey, some say cucumbers taste better pickled. As far as the FireTV, I have a few of the sticks with Kodi on them. Easy to install. I want to try a FireTV though which gives better performance, or perhaps a nVidia Shield. I just picked up the FireTv tonight to try it out. I will get Kodi on there and try it out and let you know how it works

2016-2017 NBA Thread
That was brutal. The 3 point play for Canaan was a good play but made for the wrong guy. He had been cold all game and on the bench the whole quarter, doesn't make sense to run a play for him

Rangers prospect facing charges
QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 22, 2016 -> 07:06 PM) Do you have a point or what? The comment: but these are teenagers and boys will be boys. Just doesn't make sense and is not true. We were all teenage boys and that s*** didn't happen so this isn't just something teenage boys do. Yes they make fun of each other, push each other around, fart in their face, etc.. But they don't do this: "on a bed with his arms held behind his back and his legs pinned down. At least four men are seen in addition to the alleged victim, whose penis is exposed, grabbed and maneuvered underneath a hand towel" I'm not saying you think it is ok what they did but to just classify it as a "boys will be boys" thing is wrong

QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 22, 2016 -> 03:14 PM) You can pick a few words and strip them of context and attribute whatever point you want to a quote. That doesn't change what the broader point was. "It's pretty messed up and disgraceful from "professionals" but these are teenagers and boys will be boys." Ok, what you said before it changes what?

Vacation/Travel Thread
QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 22, 2016 -> 08:30 AM) Puerto Rico is fantastic. I've been there twice including once for our wedding/honeymoon. The first time, we stayed here on the west side of the island. It was a little bit of a drive from San Juan, but there was plenty to do in the area(s) around there. Our wedding was at the Marriott in San Juan. I'd definitely check out Old San Juan and the old Spanish fort if you go. Our honeymoon was on Vieques at this hotel. You've got to take a little puddle jumper from San Juan to get here, but it's very secluded and minimally developed island with gorgeous, pristine beaches. One thing to keep in mind with any Caribbean or Central American travel right now though is Zika if you're thinking about having children. Good point. Not planning on it for a few years but still something to worry about. I will check out the ones you included, probably will be out of the price point we are wanting to spend right now but could be good for our actual honeymoon.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 22, 2016 -> 07:12 AM) He's not saying its OK. He is saying this is viewed differently as a culture there. There is a difference. This comment: " but these are teenagers and boys will be boys" is what people disagree with, not that culture is different there.

I will look into both of those. Panama City Beach seems to be on the lower end of airline prices and seems to have a lot to do. Anybody been before?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Nov 21, 2016 -> 03:00 PM) I assume since it's in May that you don't want to be in the Midwest. Unfortunately May is kind of rough, it's really early in the season and a lot of bodies of water will still be months away from warming up. You're going to have to go pretty far south if you want real swimming. Yeah we want Florida area or somewhere down there by an ocean. Sorry should have specified that part lol

My fiancée and I are looking for a place to go to for a 4 night-3 day trip after we get married (probably May 11th-15th) that isn't going to be super expensive. We want to go to a beach city that has plenty to do (attractions, shopping, restaurants, nice beach), any suggestions?

The face we are 3-1 on this roadtrip is amazing. We were without Doug and Rondo the first two games then Doug and Wade tonight. We desperately need a vet big man though, Portis just isn't cutting it out there

Four year control guys off the table(JQ,Nate,Eaton)
I think they want to trade Sale, Frazier, Melky, etc to try and get players to compete in 2018/2019 with Q, Eaton, Jones, Anderson, Rodon, Fulmer, Collins, Burdi and FA signings. Not saying it can't be done but not exactly the easiest thing to do

Reddick signs with Astros
QUOTE (Username @ Nov 17, 2016 -> 04:59 PM) So...where does Bregman play? Maybe Gurriel to First, but still. What does that have to do with Reddick? If you are insinuating that the Astros may use him as a trade piece for Sale, I agree
