Looks like Vonn Bell may have torn his hamstring at the Combine. He will slip quite a bit and will end up a "steal"

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 11:30 AM) Boone fits that mold too where he's young (28, turning 29 in May) to be a part of the core group on that OL. No on Alex Boone, hell no. He'll drink himself onto the bench in Chicago

We are clearly hoping the offensive upgrades offset any defensive upgrade.

Michael B Jordan could have been nominated. Other than him, not sure. The little kid from Room got snubbed, he was maybe the best actor I saw in all the movies combined and nobody seems to give a s***.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 03:43 PM) Exactly. He made a simple tweet. He did nothing wrong. That's one reason Trump winning wouldn't be so bad. This P.C. world is fricking ridiculous. Like that situation at Mizzou. Half that stuff was set up and caused by ACTIVISTS. No wonder Pinkel said the hell with it and got out. He's too old to put up with all this p.c. crap. Poor Eaton. So many celebrities have had careers ruined by little tweets. I don't blame him on this one except he was ridiculously stupid to not realize you can't say what you really think on "social media." He should have thought one thing, said that to his wife, then wrote, "You tell em, Chris Rock! I've always loved Chris Rock and he's great as usual tonight!" Oh Greg....

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 01:13 PM) That's not true, it was a story about a man running away from tragedy, a tragedy that saw him fail his wife and daughter. And when he's at his lowest he stumbles upon Furiosa and the wives. The movie talked about mental illness and had a very strong feminist overtones and imagery. It had a ton of depth. Maybe we didn't see the same movie.

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 02:43 PM) The Academy nominated all white people. The media did its job: They exposed systematic discrimination by an organization run by liberals. Please don't pretend this race issue holds no water. It absolutely does. Its not about nominations, its about opportunity. There was probably one minority acting snub from all of the roles, but there were other white people snubbed as well. The point is the roles available arent equal therefore nominations dont happen.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 11:10 AM) Easy for a white guy to say some s*** like this when his ancestors were probably lynching up blacks centuries ago. /troll I blame baseball's lack of diversity

QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 10:38 AM) Decent response, let's move along. Most media will except for the ones that are trying to stay in the news.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 09:44 AM) Matt Miller always has had him in the 1st round. Supposedly the 40 times are a bit quicker than they really are. For example, Lee's 40 time stopped when he had about 5 feet left. CB William Jackson ran a 4.32 and 4.39. I think he can be in play at 11 for the Bears. Official times are different than the NFL network times FYI. I was posting official electronic times.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 09:49 AM) I thought Bernstein actually defended Eaton? I heard different but maybe he did initially. Once again, this is a non story anyway.

So THATS why the Minn players were suspended. Wow

Damn Eli Apple just slid into the first round with a 4.4

When Dan Bernstein turns something into a controversy you know its nothing. WHo f***ing cares.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Feb 29, 2016 -> 06:43 AM) I think that Mad Max should have Best Picture and Director, it's by far the most well crafted film of the year, great premise, wonderful editing, thought provoking subtext and great performances. How did the Revenant not win, if it won Best Director? I couldnt disagree more, Max Mad was a nice Sci-Fi flick but it lacked any depth whatsoever. Spotlight and Room were tremendous.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 28, 2016 -> 02:11 PM) Darron Lee with the 4.47. Gonna be a good player. Corrected to 4.43. Speed.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 28, 2016 -> 05:25 PM) Things I'm not used to saying: Thanks Purdue and Ohio State. Impressive season by IU

Well they tried their best to give Iowa the win but the ball don't lie.

If there was ever a refereeing crew on the take its in his Iowa v OSU game. Just blatant incompetence.

Darron Lee with the 4.47. Gonna be a good player.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 04:34 PM) Sorry for not responding earlier, but I just take a couple advils, some water, and go straight to bed with some ice on the head. Nothing really defeats it for me unless I am sleeping some 6-8 hours with some ice on the head and some sort of pain-relief medicine (Advil). You should investigate the real meds. I completely lose vision with mine so it was needed

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 04:20 PM) Retained salary on CHI/LA deal: CHI keeps 50 per cent on Scuderi. LA keeps 15 per cent of Ehrhoff's. Pretty sure Scuderi is retiring.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 04:51 PM) Only if he wants to take the deal. Can't he just not sign and go back into the draft next year? I believe he signed with an agent already when he declared, so no

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 03:09 PM) This doesn't seem to be the move to lock down the D, it's all all about the cap. Scuderi is owned money for next year, Ehrhoff is an FA. Will be interesting to see how much money is retained. Good financial move.

Man, I hope Zeke ends up with a team that uses him correctly, he's going to be so good.
