Yeah giving the title to a face Reigns doesn't make sense right now. Only way to make him a compelling face is to have him chase the title, come up short a few times before going over at Mania. That seemed to be the plan. A heel turn would be good though. Maybe screwing over Ambrose en route to the title.

Neither of the first two Craig Bonds did that number. Though the last one did nearly double it.

He's right

Can't believe they're releasing Starcraft 2 LotV on November 10th. Basically the 2 biggest pc releases of the year on the same day. Ugh.

White Sox decline option on Alexei Ramirez
Buehrle>Wood replied to Whisox05's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I don't see how we could bring him back unless it's a 2 year deal. -
Manny Acta offered coaching job; Takes Job with M's
Buehrle>Wood replied to Buehrle>Wood's topic in Pale Hose Talk
But he is mostly right. It is stupid to do. Would be so much cleaner to just can Robin, but whatever. Parent was rumored to be fired because he was gunning for Robin's job and now we're setting ourselves to be in the exact same situation. -
http://sandraacta.com/web/index.php/compon...puesto-de-coach It's in spanish. But they interviewed him yesterday presumably for the bench coach job. He also has another offer, but I don't believe it mentions from who.

The 40-man, Rule 5, and roster decisions
Buehrle>Wood replied to NorthSideSox72's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 10:06 AM) Good point. The only players there I've even heard of are Featherston and Graham. Herrera was better than everyone in the draft combined. -

Funny everyone mentiones the Rangers. The lost out in the rule 5 last year because they lost Herrera who put up a 4 war last year. Canha, Herrera, Deshields and Gilmartin from last year's draft are all proof you can find good players there. -

Six open spots and a bunch of crap at the end of the 34 on the list. We're in a good spot to protect whoever. Leury Garcia would be my first on the chopping block. Don't see the need for him with Johnson, Saladino, and Sanchez going for roster spots. Carroll even has more value at this point. Smith probably could be dfa'd as mentioned. Tago, Phillips, Wendelken and Jaye should all definitely be protected since we'll have the room. -
QUOTE (SnB @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 08:17 AM) I played through Fallout 3 over the past year and loved it. I tried New Vegas and just couldn't get into it, like at all. Probably because I was trying to rush through it and finish before 4 comes out. Still looking forward to Fallout 4. The New Vegas vs Fallout 3 argument is very polarizing to people. Me, I think FO3 is the best game ever and New Vegas is just another game. Fallout 4 same devs as FO3 so that's good news.

2015-16 NCAA Football Thread
Buehrle>Wood replied to LittleHurt05's topic in A and J's Olde Tyme Sports Pub
You didn't read what I posted. I don't care about wins vs low level teams either. The fact is quality wins like perhaps vs USC and Navy are going to do a lot, lot9 more to strengthen ND's resume than any loss. If two teams are so razor tight, fine compare the losses. But guess what? That exact scenario played out last year. The team with by far the most "impressive loss" (3 point loss @5 team) finished 6th (last of the teams in playoff discussion) because the selection committee didn't give a s***. The team with the worst loss got into the playoff. Who teams beat won out. -

Well I think everyone will disagree with you. Still also ignoring the point. No one cares about wins over Rice just as nobody should care losing to the number 1 team. What people should care about is the quality teams you've beaten. I may disagree with saying USC and Navy are great wins but it's way, way more compelling of an argument to me than "But we played a team close!" I'd at least go down that right if I were a notre dame fan. -

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 09:09 PM) So all losses are the same? Losing a close game to a top team on the road is better than beating some cupcake like Lamar or whomever. It's not that black and white. It should matter, otherwise why not just schedule FCS teams and s***ty G5 teams every year? Their wins are comparable to those of the teams below them. Who you beat should far, far, far outweigh who you lose to, so yes. The selection committee actually came out and said this last year which is why Ohio State ended up in the playoff over TCU and Baylor. Otherwise you reward teams for "quality losses" which is really dumb. Not sure where you're going with the scheduling fcs team thing. That'd be the opposite of what I'm saying. Reward teams for who they have beaten. Scheduling fcs teams certainly would not accomplish that. -

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 08:46 PM) #3 SOS. The undefeated Big 12 teams haven't played anyone besides Texas Tech yet and Michigan State has looked pretty poor in a lot of their wins. I like that the committee takes into account strength of schedule and how teams look in their wins instead of just overall record, otherwise everyone would just schedule cupcakes. People are too focused on just top 25 teams as well. Hypothetically, a team that beat the #31, #29, and #27 teams has a better resume than the team that beat the #94, #51, and #17 teams. #14 SOS and lost to the #1 ranked team by two points on the road, how is that a bad resume? They might not necessarily deserve to be #5 but it's really not that egregious, maybe a few spots too high. Who gives a s*** who you lose to? They still don't have good wins. -
Okay Portis calmed down. He must have been scared earlier.

Portis looks really really really really awful.

Ill be honest, I have absolutely no idea how fallout/elder scrolls games could even be playable on consoles. I dont mean thay from a tech standpoint either. I would not even consider them on ps4/xbox.
