QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:24 PM) The Cubs are the only ones who really went off of the rails tonight, followed by the Marlins. And with the Marlins it is really hard to say that taking a guy who a lot of people had as a top 3 pick that is one of the hardest throwers ever at #2 is really a surprise or crazy.

It seems like there has been incredibly few surprises tonight which is pretty rare for an MLB draft.

This better be Rodon.

Donovan hasn't scored a single goal for LA this year. He just isn't very good anymore.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 20, 2014 -> 07:33 PM) Or Jonas Valančiūnas over Thompson. Or Barnes over Waiters. Harrison Barnes isn't good.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 20, 2014 -> 01:25 PM) My friend believes getting rid of Martins terrible contract is worth passing on an extra piece. Martin's contract really isn't bad.

Alexei has been great this year but Hawk really needs to stop with the Alexei has been the best shortstop in baseball this year stuff. It is just laughably stupid and he comes off as really poorly every time he tries to discount Tulowitzki.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 18, 2014 -> 09:46 AM) Godzilla did Godzilla things , that's all I asked for. They tried to add a compelling human story, but that ended when . All in all, the fight scenes were more than enough to make me forget about Aaron Taylor Johnsons non-moving non-emotional face Also, I saw Fast 6 last night on HBO. The final scene on the runway, that had to be at least a 50 mile runway, right? Lol My main problem with the movie is we only got to see Godzilla in action for like 5 minutes and even the fight seems weren't very compelling. But if you are going to make a giant monster movie that doesn't really feature the monster you really need to have non-awful human characters and it would be nice if something of interest happened before the final 15 minutes.

I thought Godzilla was f***ing terrible. Unbelievably boring movie.

Hopefully Viciedo will be spending a lot of time at DH next year.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 16, 2014 -> 11:44 AM) Yeah it's a compete dumpster fire of a company. They've been getting rid of their divisions piece by piece for a few years now starting with their music then their pcs and now their tvs. It manages to lose money in every single division it runs (which is a ton) except for selling insurance, oddly, and sometimes spiderman makes them a pretty penny. And the Spiderman films are trending down in terms of box office. Hopefully that leads to Sony selling the character rights back to Disney/Marvel.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 16, 2014 -> 11:16 AM) So is NW and NIU from what I hear. Illinois isnt all that close to home if he's really going there to be by his "sick mother". It is less than a 2 hour drive from Joliet. Evanston is over an hour drive without traffic and will usually take way longer than that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 16, 2014 -> 08:47 AM) So it's officially the exact same conference finals as last year except plus Russell Westbrook? Wow, such an interesting, engrossing, unpredictable league. The Grizzlies were in the WCF last year.

Ravens are really pissing me off today. Love their draft.

Ugh, Ferguson only had 4.5 tackles for loss in his entire career and only 1 sack.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 9, 2014 -> 01:14 PM) I don't like that idea. It is a big risk. If you have a good year next year you are probably happy you made the move. If Cutler gets hurt and misses a bunch of time the trade becomes absolutely horrendous.

So apparently the NFL is considering pushing the draft back another two weeks next year. I f***ing hate Roger Goodell. Because I want another 2 weeks of the media rehashing the same s*** over and over again about players that have already been talked about for 3 months. Sounds thrilling.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 7, 2014 -> 12:01 PM) Pau Gasol/Kobe, Tony Parker/Brent Barry, those Villanova players I'm forgetting, Steve Nash/Lenandro Barbosa, Lebron/Delonte West, and now Hibbert/George. It's like the new my dog ate my homework, although I do believe a couple of them were true. I'm sure some of the rumors are true just because these things sadly do happen but it is hilarious how there are rumors like this nearly every year now.

After an amazing first round the 2nd round could not have gotten off to a worse start. None of the 4 games has been particularly competitive and 3 were total blowouts.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 5, 2014 -> 12:23 PM) Drafting a RB in the first is a fireable offense these days. There are exceptions but you better be damn sure you are truly getting an elite level back if you are going to take one before the end of the first round.

That was a fun game. I was hoping for a little bit more dramatic last minute but still very entertaining.

What an awful foul by Chris Paul.

This game has been f***ing awesome.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 3, 2014 -> 07:52 PM) Pistons in '04? Heat in '06? Mavs in '11? The 2006 Heat wasn't a surprise. They had lost in 7 to the Pistons in the ECF the previous year and had Shaq and Wade. The other two I agree with.
