Discussions of city council holding a no-confidence vote on McCarthy. Also movements against Anita Alvarez to step down.

Barry Odom is the leading candidate for the job and there hasn't been a peep about whatever you are talking about greg. All of the hypotheticals about how a "group" will respond, it may ease your concern if you actually just bothered to listen instead of constantly forming an opinion on how they react and how they may react to situations.

It was announced last wednesday, tickets went on sale Saturday. I had made plans with several friends to go, there were a total of 12 shows, 2 a night. Then, saturday they went on sale and we realized only 2 could be bought at one time. We let everyone know, but we were only ones who were able to get through. With 12 shows I honestly did not think it would be that hard to find one night together.

So, as a follow-up, saw Creed and Spotlight this weekend. Already discussed spotlight, but Creed was really good, very fun, very watchable. Its hard to make a bad boxing movie, as a boxing montage is just so automatically great. Its the best montage in movies. But I really liked the small things in this movie. The training dialogue and ringside advice Balboa gives was much more interesting in a tactical/realism sort of way than with a "heart is all you need" kind of way.

I nabbed two tickets to chappelle next saturday!

Spotlight was incredible. Phenomenal acting, writing and editing.

Great editorial by trib. This cannot wither on the vine. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion...1127-story.html

The Bears defense is having an incredible run of not looking that dominant but at the end of the game they gave up less than 20 Pts and held another team scoreless in second half. The job fangio has done is incredible.

Ah, yeah. Not sure how that works but checking into one auto-checks you into the other.

Forte Langford I think is a lock, though.

I don't have a good feeling about this guy from his stats, however, if we sign him I will be irrationally excited.

raised by the state, executed by the state. This is the story of those this world just swallows up and spits out. I have a brick in my stomach over all of this. So sad and terrifying.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Nov 25, 2015 -> 01:47 PM) Wow, thanks guys! It is only two of us and we are flying into Dulles airport with a layover in Chicago. Will we have to check in twice or will the first boarding number/group be the same for the 2nd flight out of Chicago? I would hope we can get 2 seats together but sounds like it will be a toss up. When people check in right at the 24 hour mark is it likely you will get group B? It depends. Earlybird is very popular now, I usually do not get B on a full flight if I check in right away. Also, if your plane is the same one flying from chicago, you would likely stay on the plane, so you could re-adjust seats then to sit next to each other.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Nov 25, 2015 -> 01:03 PM) Flying Southwest for the first time on New Years Eve. We booked the "Wanna Get Away" ticket because it was the cheapest, anyone have experience with that? Buy the early bird feature. It's worth it. otherwise, try to check-in 24 hrs before as soon as it hits. Southwest is tremendous at being on time and fast and comfortable. But if you are a C you will not sit together and you'll be in the middle.

I feel like the cost to acquire a .750+ OPS catcher is so high I have no desire to do anything else but this. Love this signing. We have a gigantic crater in an actuall offensive position in 2b/3b/RF and everyone wants to pay out the wazoo for a marginal offensive gain at catcher. Unless buster posey is available I have no desire to trade the farm for a .760 ops catcher when we can go and sign a great 2b for 10 million and have a much better offensive upgrade.

I really hate the west coast trip. I basically can only talk about the 1st half. You guys want to talk about the first half?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 25, 2015 -> 11:07 AM) His teammates are the suck. They have a young PG and PF that need to develop.

Has to be rough getting good mexican in California man!

I can't even add anything except that the institutional response is horrifying. Our institutions of power have been set up with it being far too difficult for individuals to do the right thing when these situations are in motion.

I hope he's healthy.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 25, 2015 -> 10:14 AM) And he's barely played in two years. I give the excuse to Rose for how long it takes to get back and that same excuse applies to Kobe. I am not saying he'll be prime Kobe, but if he can stay healthy and build his stamina and comfort up, he'll get better. The thing is, he should not be asserting himself as 2010 Kobe. He needs to pay attention to his teammates.
