Trump floats Ivanka for Cabinet "She's very popular, she's done very well. And you know Ivanka very well. But there really are so many that are talented people, like you," he said to Savage, "You're so talented, I don't know if your viewers know that." Read that sentence from Trump. This is the same sentence he says about everything. It's so weird.

QUOTE (Ezio Auditore @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 11:44 AM) The problem I have with Frank Miller's Batman is that the Dark Knight Returns was supposed to be Batman after decades of crime-fighting had sent him off the deep end. There is nothing wrong with that portrayal, per se, but over the past 20 or so years, it's seeped into the rest of Batman's identity. So Batman is this violent, insufferable, but still self-righteous dick that the other heroes respect, but tolerate more than they actually like. This is an absolutely perfect statement.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 10:43 PM) I do think that Batman and Wonder Woman will be able to carry the franchises along until it all improves. Justice League's trailer was a step towards that. Trailers =/= movies.

Funny that this could have been the Chicago year.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 01:45 PM) This is definitely one of those "horror face" moments: Voices From Donald Trump’s Rallies, Uncensored Garbage Candidate for Garbage People is too kind, really. That's not an America I want any part of - absolutely terrifying.

Why don't we just move Mr. Harrelson out of the box permanently.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 12:54 PM) We already have at least one potential faithless elector

I just don't see how he'll even last until November. This is wackiness. 3 more months.

But it was a damn good 5.5 innings!

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 10:44 AM) Loudoun County is actually the wealthiest county in the entire country. This has to be on purpose.

Trump is obsessed with nuclear weapons and wants to know why they shouldn't be used. Badly. http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/201...carborough.html

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) No, I don't disagree with you on that point. I most definitely agree it was rushed, but that being said I still enjoyed it. I believe this was kind of in hindsight to "playing catchup" to Marvel at the box office, where DC kind of sat back for years as Marvel Studios rolled out films and gained momentum, they kind of decided to jump in the deep end in an attempt to get in on the action before the genre burns itself out (which they all eventually do). And this is what I mean by condescension from you Marvel fanboys, and it's obvious that's what you all are. I never said your opinion doesn't matter. I never said you had to love BvS. I'm merely pointing out how flawed RT is, and question why people follow it like gospel (as shown they do in this thread), because you know, it's a, consensus of hundreds of "critics"...and I put critics in quotes for a reason. You're being silly. There's nothing I want more than the DC universe to have good, compelling, well-done movies. BvS was a steaming pile of s***. It was a movie about two of my favorite superheroes of all-time (including my favorite), and despite the horrific reviews I saw it because I f***ing love Batman and Superman. I knew it couldn't be SO BAD, right? I was pissed off the entire s***show of a movie. DC is making crap movies, and I really don't see why. The only saving grace they have right now is that somewhere down the road we're going to get a Batman film written and directed by Ben Affleck, and he's incredibly talented and that movie will rock. Calm the f*** down and just swallow the fact that these movies are steaming piles of horses***. Jesus H Christ, man. No one can argue against that. They f***ing suck donkey dick.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 07:30 PM) Here are more exceptions, for your reading pleasure. Justin Bieber: Never Say Never: CERTIFIED FRESH @64%. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/justin_bie...ever_say_never/ You know what, I'll just leave this here. http://elitedaily.com/entertainment/batman...perman/1435885/ All of those movies had a higher rating that Batman v Superman. And I'm not saying everyone has to love Batman v Superman -- I personally liked it, especially the directors cut -- but seriously...this list of movies were nowhere near as entertaining as BvS, even if you absolutely hated it because it was too dark or scattered, it was STILL better than f***ing Tobey McGuire's "Emo Spider-Man 3", which was also "certified fresh" at 63%. I love Star Wars Episode 1. Your argument is invalid.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 2, 2016 -> 11:34 AM) Suicide Squad is getting the business end of the critics reviews, sitting at 31% on RT right now. DAMMIT DC GET YOUR s*** TOGETHER Seriously. They need to start over. Again.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 09:07 PM) I'd put in a waiver claim on him for sure. I thought he had options?

sigh They have like 10 guys who should be dealt and moved 1 of them.

They're standing their ground, but it sounds like these teams want them to cave. Sale is just too valuable to trade, apparently.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 01:24 PM) ESPN doing baseball tonight... One of them said the Yanks will go all in after Sale is he isn't traded in the next Hr The Yankees have nothing in the pipe.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:38 PM) Really surprised there is 0 quintana chatter and has been. Kind've reaffirms that others don't see his market as the same. Nah, this is just like any game. It's hard to key in on Quintana when someone like Sale may be available.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:32 PM) Phil Rogers on MLBN talking Sale and Sox right now. He says we won't budge from our price and we'll wait until the deadline to see if someone takes it. Good. I'd rather keep a top 5 asset in all of baseball than undersell him to Boston or LA. It's not like we can't trade him in the offseason or never.

If someone tells me to go f*** myself, but I laugh when I read it, does it really count as a problem? I kid. u mods

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:12 PM) I really don't understand this. If I was the White Sox GM, I would tell them, this is what I want. Unless you are willing to agree to that price, don't call me anymore. I am not haggling Chris Sale. This is likely what is happening.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 1, 2016 -> 12:06 PM) Nonsense. I'll believe Reddick is not a sox target when he retires. ha - preach!

Not new, but the actual Tweet. Hm. I wonder if they're trying to get Puig for Shields + and then ship Sale elsewhere (if at all). This could just be a "compete" move to shore up the offense with a guy who will fit RIGHT IN as he's hitting right now.
