What a garbage organization. I wouldn't even ever bother engaging them in trade talks unless they were giving players away.

Trump doing exactly what Putin would want him to at every turn. Just awesome

Sure, why not.

2018-2019 Official NBA thread
whitesoxfan99 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Yeah, I won’t be watching an NBA game this year. These guys have the right to do what they want but I hope they realize how awful this is for the fans and that you will eventually make people not care about the league. -
2018-2019 Official NBA thread

They basically have zero shot at competing this year and are banking on Leonard and another free agent next year. Of course LeBron will be 35 midway through next year so who knows how much he has left in the tank. -
What a joke that they didn’t call those penalties on Russia

It is obviously way down the list of tiebreakers so it isn't the end of the world and I don't recall it coming up before but I find it really dumb that can ever play a role in who advances.
-
The fair play tiebreaker is so freaking stupid. I'd rather have a random draw be the decider before fair play because then teams have to play until the end rather than doing literally nothing for the last 15 minutes of the game like Japan/Poland.

I'm with you. Just a horrible movie. Of course I had low expectations going in since removing the dinosaurs from the amusement park concept just isn't interesting and becomes a standard boring monster movie. This series has one great movie, a couple fun stupid ones in Lost World and Jurassic World and two horrendous movies. I won't be seeing whatever they come out with next as there just aren't any interesting angles to me left with this concept.

The 2018 MLB Draft Thread (Tracker in OP)
whitesoxfan99 replied to NorthSideSox72's topic in FutureSox Board
They got really good value with the first two picks. I wouldn't have wanted Singer at 4 but at 18 that is a nice pick and Kowar is great value at 33. -
2017-18 official NBA discussion thread

Before this year he had plenty of talent around him. Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love are both really good players (Irving at times a superstar) and then you have had guys like JR Smith and Thompson who were really good role players. This year has been unbelievable since JR Smith has fallen off badly, Thompson was hurt and not as good when healthy and you no longer have Irving. The east being a complete dumpster fire the last 4 years helps quite a bit though. Outside of LeBron the East has been early 2000s bad the last 4 years when you had garbage teams like the Kidd Nets and Iverson 76ers making title runs. -

Lol at that Thompson ejection. That was a normal foul. Unbelievably pathetic job by the refs in game 1. -

Just horrendous officiating. Refs can’t help themseves from being all over the Warriors nuts and giving them the game. -
2018 NFL off-season thread
whitesoxfan99 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Meanwhile the Milwaukee police release a video showing exactly why NFL players were protesting. But it must be about not respecting the troops. Never underestimate how remarkably unintelligent and how big of meatheads a lot of NFL fans are (plus plenty of racists in there too). I really hope the NFL’s ratings decline again this upcoming season. -

Timberwolves getting screwed hard by the refs down the stretch in a big game tonight. Denver not getting called for anything at all in the 4th quarter and some really tough calls going against the Timberwolves. -
We just need Donald Trump to save our kids because he would run inside and stop the shooter even if he didn't have a gun on him.

2018 Winter Olympics Thread
whitesoxfan99 replied to LittleHurt05's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 22, 2018 -> 08:19 AM) Until the other countries catch up, they should just let US/Canada women play a 5 or 7 game series for the gold. Those games are always epic, just as exciting as any men's hockey game. Probably more exciting than the men's tourney this year with no NHL players. Also that winner in the shootout by Lamoureux-Davidson was an absolutely insane move. Too bad she wasn't playing for the men's team in their shootout. And speaking of the men's team, pretty clear they should have tried to get more college kids with talent on that team rather than journeyman playing overseas. The college kids they did have were by far their best players. -
2018 Winter Olympics Thread
whitesoxfan99 replied to LittleHurt05's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
That shootout effort by the USA was f***ing pathetic. Great job by the goalie keeping them in it but holy s*** those were pitiful moves put on the Czech goalie. -
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 15, 2018 -> 10:08 AM) Trump and Gov. Scott are working closely on this shooting. Can someone explain what that bulls*** means? Are they praying together on a 3 way call with Mike Pence? They are discussing how they can blame the shooter's neighbors and classmates for this.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2018 -> 04:48 PM) Not being able to acquire tools of death would help 100%. There is a reason the UK hasnt had a mass shooting in 20 years and we have them almost every week. There were two armed police officers working at the school and they couldnt stop this. Nope, the clear solution is to arm teachers and students and have everyone in America packing. I couldn't imagine anything safer.
-
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 14, 2018 -> 04:14 PM) Multiple fatalities. Cant wait to hear about mental health being the issue Just wait for the large numbers of law abiding gun owners to stop these shootings. I'm sure that will start happening any time now.
-
Maybe someday our government will actually give a f*** about doing something about this rather than being pawns for the NRA. Immigrant kills one person while drunk driving, take to twitter to suggest that immigration has to be dealt with immediately. Weekly school shootings, regular mass shootings, oh well, thoughts and prayers nothing we can do about it.

2018 Winter Olympics Thread
whitesoxfan99 replied to LittleHurt05's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
QUOTE (zenryan @ Feb 13, 2018 -> 01:20 PM) I’ve always liked the Winter games more but I have little interest this time around. I like live sports and it seems like it’s too much of a hassle bc of the time difference. And bc the next two Olympics are in Asia, guess I won’t be caring much until 2024. Or until NHL players are playing. All the stuff going on during prime time is live just FYI. The time difference makes it so the stuff happening in the morning there is happening live at night here. There is a lot of stuff in the middle of the night that is nearly impossible to follow live but they are actually going a good job getting us a lot of live content during normal hours. -
Benioff and Weiss to develop a Star Wars series of films as well. Looks like Episode IX will likely be the end of the Skywalker saga (at least for a long time). That is probably the right move, how long can you spend focused on the same family when you have such a fun universe to play with.

I'm incredibly sympathetic to that father but all he is doing is putting his daughters through more pain and grief with his actions there. They don't need to see him taken off in handcuffs.
