  1. QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 12, 2015 -> 08:42 AM) This thread is a dumpster fire Been that way since about June 9, 2010.
  2. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 10:45 AM) I pre-ordered my copy from Amazon. Excited to try it tomorrow. I'm a little bummed that it only comes with 8 courses and 12 pro golfers. Sounds like it's going to be a title that only comes out every couple of years. They'll be force feeding you free and pay DLC to round out the game in between. PS4? If so, I'll want your SN so we can get some rounds in. My copy arrives tomorrow as well from Amazon.
  3. QUOTE (SnB @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 08:29 AM) Have you tried "the golf club"? I'm really enjoying it. Looks ok, but the EA game will be more my style. Super gorgeous, great presentation, etc.

  7. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 10:27 PM) What the hell is that? And that movie was good not great. Lots of action and I was entertained. Glad I got the HD version It's an app that lets you stream files from tablet to chromecast. Supports most file types.
  8. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 09:37 AM) To put it into itunes in order to play over AppleTv Local cast, you goof.
  9. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:08 PM) I just got a 1080p torrent of it. Quality is very very good. Yup that's the one I got. Awesome flick.
  10. I downloaded Mad Max because that's how I see movies these days. Found a real good rip, surprisingly. Anyway, it's an awesome, demented action flick with great stunts. I was hooked.
  11. The next walk Grichuk takes will be his first. That was a terrible article.
  12. It's not my money. I just wish the Bulls could make better use of their cash.
  13. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 2, 2015 -> 09:43 AM) Buehrle got a win, and Cotts was untouched in 2/3 of an inning. I think those are the only 4 currently active for the World Champions. I would guess BMac had a nice day on the Twitter recuperating from surgery. Well-played. Ten years is a long time in professional sports. I NEED one of those Bobby Jenks bobbleheads coming out.
  14. QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jul 1, 2015 -> 12:47 PM) Obvious Bron, Love, Kyrie is the new big 3 for years to come, all just gonna opt out to get more money in the long run. Can Bulls compete with that? I dont know. Uh. No. They got stomped by LeBron and half a kyrie.
  15. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 1, 2015 -> 08:26 AM) Dragic to Heat at 5/90. Have to imagine they'll keep Wade. That starting 5 is definitely scary for the east. Maybe even good enough to knock of the cavs if they are healthy. Also woj say Spurs are the favorite for Aldridge. Quite the replacement for Duncan. What the f*** are you talking about. If the Heat are healthy and LeBron dies, then they have a shot.

    2015 TV Thread

    QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 12:14 AM) Yeah, I might give The Brink a try. Going to wait on Ballers. It just looks dumb. So what exactly makes Ballers "look dumb"? The Brink is worth "a try" but Ballers "looks dumb"? I don't get it. It's a story about an ex-athlete played by a hollywood star who wants to get into the business side post-retirement. Ballers is actually pretty f***ing awesome. Also, had no idea the WR on the show is Denzel's kid.
  17. The Peavy trade remains fine. The dude was toast. But anyone who was expecting Avisail Garcia to be some stud All-Star was really hopeful.
  18. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 11:24 AM) You could almost say more than both of them as well because of his ridiculous deal. Either way, it is nitpicking, Sale's value is off the charts No. You cannot. He is a pitcher and can only affect 33 games or so.
  19. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 10:57 AM) Whoa, I hadn't heard that. Now we are talking titles. You misread it. That was talking about Butler. Anthony Davis is not reported to want to come to the Bulls in any way.
  20. QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 29, 2015 -> 08:53 PM) What do you mean by this? QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 29, 2015 -> 08:54 PM) ???? The least anyone can offer him as a restricted free agent is 2 years. Not one. Then there's this... http://hoopshype.com/2015/06/17/how-the-bu...ler-in-chicago/ There’s a little known clause in the NBA’s Collective Bargaining Agreement. It is little known because, as best as can be ascertained, it has never been used. When a player coming off of a rookie scale contract is entering restricted free agency, his team can, in addition to the regular qualifying offer of an amount predetermined by the CBA and his draft spot, extend something called a Maximum Qualifying Offer. A Maximum Qualifying Offer is, essentially, an offer of a maximum contract. It is not a contract – it is an offer. It is not binding on the player. It is not something the player has to accept, or that prevents him from signing contracts with other teams, be they in the NBA or elsewhere. But it is something that impacts upon their options afterwards. In a Maximum Qualifying Offer, there can be no option years whatsoever, nor any bonuses, nor any wiggle room on the salary. A Maximum Qualifying Offer is an offer of the very maximum; the full five years, the full 7.5 percent raises, and a full 100 percent guarantee in each year. It is the most player-friendly contract a team can possibly offer. And that is why it has never been used. If Chicago extends Butler a Maximum Qualifying Offer, nothing will ostensibly change. Butler will remain a free agent, he will remain a restricted free agent on account of the original one year qualifying offer he was extended, and he can still accept that QO. He can also accept the Maximum Qualifying Offer, or indeed sign another type of contract with his incumbent team or any other franchise. He does not even have to sign for the maximum, despite how illogical that might seem. The only difference is the length of the offer sheet he can potentially sign with a new team. If Chicago offers a Maximum Qualifying Offer, an offer sheet with a new team has to have at least the first three years be optionless, as opposed to the first two.
  21. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 11:27 AM) Jake Peavy was not in his walk year when we traded him. Whatever. Facts are for sissies.
