QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 09:18 PM) I was on a Southwest flight and a mom and dad had a 1.5-2 year old I'd say. I cringed as the child laid on the floor before take off. Not sure if the child was still down there. All I could think of was the fact you wear a seatbelt because there have been cases where planes hit the pocket and people without seat belts on crash into the top of the plane and bust their heads open. I'm thinking mom and dad had their legs over the child so the baby wouldn't go flying into the air if there was turbulence but it sorta made me nervous for the child. Just goes to show you how some planes just let it go. This little kid was old enough to sit upright and have a seat belt I'm thinking. Nothing happened but the flight attendants didn't even discuss procedure with the parents. They just let them do what they wanted with the child. I love Southwest. Just thought this was a curious story. Thats correct Greg. I've been on a plane where turbulence did that exact thing. However, kids man. They crazy.

QUOTE (BaseballNick @ Sep 6, 2017 -> 12:44 PM) The guy needs to quit drinking immediately. He turns into a lunatic or a player after consuming a few drinks. I guess it makes for good TV, but man, what a mess for his family, friends, and kids. Ironic that he was talking about proposing and then hours later he's fooling around with Camilla. He needs some help. He literally drinks and immediately ruins women's lives. If you are two different people, and one is s***ty and only happens when you drink. Stop drinking.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 7, 2017 -> 04:06 PM) Let's try to keep this thread away from the filibuster please. I hope all of our florida posters were able to evacuate and their homes and businesses avoid major damage. And let us know if you need anything

Rosters are going to be raided if players are available to play right away. Its not good for anyone but a handful of schools.

As someone who has lost everything in a disaster before, send anything you can. Even when the waters recede and the storm passes, you are left with absolutely nothing. Every tiny bit helps.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 6, 2017 -> 09:51 AM) And I'm sure when I call to cancel the TV service, eventually they will offer me another awesome Triple Play deal and I'll stick around. The never ending cycle. You'll pay about 90 bucks a month for fast internet.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 6, 2017 -> 08:40 AM) Draining the swamp! His lies (like today's about taxes) and hashtags are meant to appease and mislead his fanatical base. And it works.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 5, 2017 -> 08:26 AM) We really need to cut the cord with our Comcast cable, I'm embarrassed to admit how much we pay right now. All I really need is sports, and most of those channels seem available with Sling. And all the kids shows are on Amazon which we already have. What's the best internet company to use in Chicago? If we do pull the trigger, need to make sure the internet speed is on point. Comcast is the best internet. Thats the rub

I do think it would be interesting to see the people who want these members of the working class deported actually do their jobs, because they wont and dont want to. The wall is a political set of loud pipes on a Z27 Camaro. Donnie is still 0/10 on his promises in his contract to his voters.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 5, 2017 -> 05:08 PM) Maybe he should get a visit from ICE.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Sep 2, 2017 -> 10:11 PM) Florida looks like they'll be ranked in the 100s again on offense this year. Amazing how dreadful they've been since tebow has left. Doesn't help half their team committed credit card fraud

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 08:25 AM) Trump allegedly donating $1 million to the relief effort. Wants everyone to know, and is asking the "fake news" bad people where to donate, because obviously, being there and getting a "first hand" look at things, he has no idea. And his brilliant son Eric said CNN won't even mention his dad's generosity. They ran it on their station and tweeted about it 3 hours before this prodigy said he didn't think they would ever mention it. I hope this investigation gets the Trump Organization in a bunch of trouble. Yeah get the receipt on that donation. He says a lot of things he wont do, especially with his money.

QUOTE (TRU @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 08:35 PM) So yeah, its pretty wet here currently Some of us were able to go back to work today, still no delivery services running. Hopefully they are back tomorrow. Let ST know if you need anything. My company gave 1M and I dont think thats enough

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 05:29 PM) FWIW, US Postal Service has stopped for any zip code that has a 778 to start with, so literally 100 miles from Houston there is no mail service right now. Literally don't even try to ship goods here unless you're able to access your own nationwide shipping network. Basically, don't ship items unless you're actually part of the Walton family or you are in one of the nearby communities already. If you want to give something tangible that isn't money, give blood. Houston will be collecting zero donations in the near future which means that every pint of blood that would otherwise have been used at the biggest medical complex in the world will have to be supplied from outside the city. I could probably suggest a gofundme page or two from people who I know first or secondhand if someone were interested, but no pressure. Thanks dude

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 08:15 PM) Hawkeye football made Ed Cunningham quit ESPN I'm super pumped to travel to Iowa city this year

Also, I dont think Cersei is pregnant. Remember the vision, she would have 3 children and tehy would all die. that baby isnt real or isnt making it.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 11:28 AM) Did I miss something or is there a new theory or history with him? He's literally been around every significant event. And the Reed's were around the children apparently. I'm way down the rabbit hole.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 10:29 AM) I don't believe that it is with their schedule and Mike Glennon at QB. Their defense is much improved but they won't be able to overcome subpar QB play I should have added "at their best"

God damn the Howland Reed stuff is really really making my brain turn.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 10:52 AM) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Upvote

He didnt see any flooding, talk to any victims, yet tweets about how he saw it first hand.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 09:03 AM) You're in on the China conspiracy, Rock!!!! I love people who thinks, "Hmmm, oodles and oodles of scientific studies and data to prove climate change is real. None to prove it is a farce. I'll choose the farce!" FYI, there was no science 500 years ago.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 07:56 AM) I saw Hub on CSN yesterday, he has been to just about every Bears practice and said Trubisky is way better than he thought, BUT is not ready for regular season play. He thinks he is going to be really good. He said maybe in a blowout they could get him time, but says for now Sanchez is the #2. He expects him to be the emergency QB for at least 5 or 6 weeks, as the Bears first 4 opponents are really good, and maybe then get the job. He was saying in the NFL, lame duck coaches are rare, so Fox is basically coaching for his job, and he's pretty much screwed, and he sees the only way he gets an extension is if the Bears make the playoffs, which is unlikely. Fox wants and needs the Bears to win more than just about anyone, so if MT isn't starting, he isn't ready. I think this is a solidly .500 team this season.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 30, 2017 -> 07:46 AM) I actually think Sanchez may get cut. he's not playing in preseason game #4 after playing 3 series total in the preseason. Seems like they don't want to risk an injury settlement. I bet they only carry 2 QB's. Dont they have Shaw on the roster as well?
