Milkman delivers

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 3, 2013 -> 11:31 AM) Holy f***, if he is a cop, then I am pretty sure I could get away with anything in his town. If he pulled me over, I'd just be all, "Curt Hennig blah blah blah GREATEST EVER. That's why blah blah blah blah and he's named MR. PERFECT"

Nice tits, though.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 1, 2013 -> 07:06 PM) Cops are never supposed to yell back. That just elevates the situation to more potential violence. They stay firm, then let their actions or their taser do the talking. There are most definitely times to raise voices/yell. And you certainly can't tase someone for yelling.

QUOTE (ptatc @ May 1, 2013 -> 02:46 PM) There is variations depending on the intensity of the situation. The police officer should not yell back and escalate the situation. This will only cause the situation to get worse. If one member of the incident remains calm it won't escalate to a problem. Wrong.

Congrats, Kyyle!

What SS2k5 said is spot on for about 90% of it. Heck, you can hear the Lumineers and Mumford & Sons on country radio these days. But give Church and a few others a chance. They're legit.

Expound. And what about the middle generation with Strait and Jackson?

No love for Eric Church in the new generation?

lol wut?

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2013 -> 04:49 PM) It's just very early to know that the AL central will be considered weak. There may be three weak teams, but two 90 game winners. These are the standings I look at until mid-August when the unbalanced schedule kicks in. http://espn.go.com/mlb/standings/_/group/5 They're the weakest basically every year. It's never too early to make that prediction.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 03:25 PM) This is a difficult thing to consider and I've given it a lot of thought over the years. My conclusion is that the world doesn't revolve around me. If something were to happen to a friend or relative (or to me), it would hurt, but I wouldn't be the first in the history of the world to suffer an injustice at the hands of someone else. I think it's kind of disgusting to watch families of victims screaming for blood or taking great pleasure in telling the offender about how they're going to "burn in hell" (bonus points if they claim to be God-fearing Christians- a recent example being the family of the first wife Drew Peterson was recently convicted of murdering). It's animalistic and repulsive. Compose yourself and think before you talk out of your ass, Ass. Think about all the people that will see the petty way you act before you throw your adult hissy fit. For you to talk about victims and their families like that while never having been in their situation, I find THAT disgusting. I mean holy s***, get the f*** off of your high horse.

He needs to do SOMETHING different.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 10:47 PM) I say put him in general population. I see romance in his future. He'd be dead within a month.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 10:23 PM) Yep! I prefer the moral high ground, though. Having the state kill this person on my behalf doesn't actually do anything for me. Nor does subjecting him to 60 years of solitary. What exactly do you suggest? It sounds almost like you're saying he shouldn't be punished

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 09:28 PM) Right the govt has to protect its people. And you cant have terrorist propaganda that says "Even if you surrender they will kill you, so you should suicide bomb, you should never surrender." We want them to surrender peacefully, we have to give some sort of incentive to that. We need to be able to tell terrorists "If you turn yourselves in, it will be better than killing yourself and others." But you just said that life imprisonment is a death sentence and worse than death row. So, what's the difference?

Very nice.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 07:14 PM) They already flashbanged him like 5 times. They shouldn't go in though unless they think he's out or dead. No reason to risk anyone's life on it.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 06:41 PM) Why not flashbang him? Absolutely no reason to. They have all the time in the world. Let him die or come to them.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 09:56 AM) Dead man's switch infers hostage to me but that is speculation. And that is just going by the scanner which can be very wrong in the heat of things A dead man's switch is a bomb that goes off when the trigger is released, so a cop can't just shoot the guy because shooting him will donate the bomb.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 12, 2013 -> 11:41 PM) I think many arguing on Q's behalf are peeved by the fact that the media have tried to paint this as a "this is totally Carlos Quentin's fault" situation. First of all, intent is not the only factor here. You shouldn't be hitting batters, whether you can control yourself or not. Injuries have cost CQ countless millions and he has a right to be pissed off when people hit him with a pitch, whether he's good at getting out of the way or not. Hitting people with pitched balls, intentional or no, isn't a guiltless offense. Q starts walking toward Greinke -- this is where most interpret that he is to blame. This was certainly a step in escalation, after the hit batsman situation was the first. When Q walked toward the mound, it should have been over. This is when Greinke says something -- an "expletive," something bad -- and Q can no longer contain himself. His plans change at this moment, deciding to attack Greinke. This is not great thinking by CQ, but also represents an escalation on the part of Greinke. Greinke doesn't back off, try to take a glancing blow, but instead lowers his shoulder in an apparent attempt to go tit for tat in the upcoming collision. This is where Greinke is totally stupid. He actually would have been better off to receive the collision fully than resist. The "smart" thing was putting his left side forward, but that also earned him a broken collarbone. Despite CQ's rage, Greinke could have done things to diffuse the situation or at least minimize his own risk. It still seems flukey that he breaks the collarbone though, even though collarbone breaks always seem flukey since they are so easy to have happen. This is just two guys that lost their tempers and got into a fight. I don't know if Greinke lost it before or after the pitch that hit CQ, but I don't really care. It isn't fair that CQ has been completely villified as the only belligerent in the situation. Pay grade and body mass are the main considerations in these arguments. I avoided him like the plague because of his injury history. One of the bittersweet moments of being right, since someone has to suffer when you accurately predict something gloomy. It's too bad, because he is really an excellent player. Do you work in law somehow? That was an excellent breakdown.

If you're that upset about something this trivial, I imagine you must live in Pleasantville
