QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 10:37 PM) Rick Perry may have worked if he didn't completely self-destruct. Except for the fact that Rick Perry's self-destruction was inevitable because he was Rick Perry, yeah.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 10:08 PM) Nah, thats not fair. I think the poor guy is struggling, this whole season must be one hell of a psychological mindf*** for him. He's a nice guy and I wish him only the best, but its just not working out for us with him as a starter... I was being facetious. But yeah... it's been all downhill since then.

Humber is under the impression that he doesn't have to be good anymore after throwing a perfect game.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 08:52 PM) I'll reply by saying that I'm not going to even guess about the cause/motive of the shooter, because whatever guess one makes is likely to be wrong. Just going off my gut... seeing how many Sikhs got harassed and/or attacked after 9/11.

Sikhs aren't even Muslim (unless you are stupid), which I'm betting the gunmen assumed.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 08:07 PM) CNN has some of the stupidest f***ing stories ever. My personal favorite is if dogs got PTSD. CNN's coverage of just about anything is vapid and shallow.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 06:22 PM) Bears free agent signee Devin Thomas to retire. This is bizarre. Somewhere Dane Sanzenbacher is doing backflips.

This has gone on for what, 2 weeks now? American politics. Yay!

I thought that was game right there.

Kevin Youkilis >>>

How do you not execute an easy play like that, that was very "Sox under Ozzie" like. But I will take it.

Holy s***, nice play.

lol Pujols is livid.

Safe... pay the f*** attention ump.

Kevin Youkilis. b****.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2012 -> 07:41 PM) Then you didn't pay attention earlier this season. The Sox getting them right was a hallmark of Ventura's team. It was night and day from Ozzie...almost as if they hadn't practiced it correctly since 2003. I don't get to watch them on TV that much (for some reason when they're on WGN, half the time I don't actually get the Sox) and I didn't get mlb.tv this year so I've noticed several different improvements in fundamentals but not specifically that. That happened to be the first rundown I've seen all season and it failed.

The Sox have been f***ing up rundowns for as long as I can remember, I thought that was just an Ozzie thing.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 23, 2012 -> 05:30 PM) Yes, but this Holmes guy is a motherf***ing asshole, a scum of the earth piece of s*** coward who needs to go pick on somebody who knows how to use a gun. I mean he was caught squarehanded. I love our country, but I wish somebody in that parking lot had a gun and killed him. He does not deserve to be on this earth one more second. Relatives of that six year old girl have the right to feel as I do. That he deserves death now without any long trial. He did it ... everybody knows he did it. I mean this isn't like Casey Anthony where nobody saw it. This scumbag needs to leave the planet soon. Had somebody taken this guy out with a gun in the parking lot ... that person would be a hero today. The best scenario would have been somebody in the theatre beating the piss out of the coward. That woulda been awesome. This coward can't fight anybody; he can only bring a ton of ammo and shoot little kids. What a guy. He's one of the most evil individuals to ever walk this planet, joining the likes of people I won't mention since it sickens me to think of evildoers throughout history. They don't deserve fame. Do you want to be the one who shot him after the assault, when he's docile and cooperating with police? You'd be arrested and charged with homicide. Not me... I'm not throwing my life away for this assclown. I've got better s*** to do.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 20, 2012 -> 09:18 AM) The amount of early voting we have in IN is ridiculous. The sad part is that participation still hasn't picked up at all. In fact it is still falling. We have literally hundreds of hours of early voting that runs for weeks before the election. That isn't counting the options for absentee balloting, or getting a ballot mailed to you, or you can even request a ballot be brought to you in special circumstances. On top of that both political parties locally hire vans and buses, as do many candidates, on the day of election, and at special intervals during early voting. Indiana is as Republican of a state that exists today. This is something that bothers me. This is the country that for all intents and purposes founded modern democracy, but the majority of us don't even bother voting (let alone actually notice what's going on to even know how to vote). Oh, sure, every 4 years, we might vote for president because, well, that's important, and we'll vote for Congressmen and Senators too because I guess that's important. Hell, even the governor. Why not! But in off year elections or midterms (which are every bit as important as the general election for president)? What's that?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 11:41 PM) This has been bugging me...question with spoilers below. So the bomb that went off was a fusion bomb. I'm not a physicist, but if this was a pure fusion reactor, it should have a blast radius far more substantial than a hydrogen bomb. I've heard that that blast radius of the bomb was only 6 miles, which just does not seem right. Thoughts?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 07:12 PM) Do you remember the North Hollywood shootout? 2 men in body armor held police at bay for nearly an hour while firing weapons. They had no armor over their face, and were being shot at by dozens of police. It took an hour for police to actually hit them in a place that could wound them around their armor. Why? Because "Aim for the head" under ideal circumstances isn't easy, you aim center of mass for a reason, you're less likely to miss, the head is a small target compared to center of mass. Now, even assume ideal circumstances, except you are under fire yourself. Thus, you don't have time to stand in front of the shooter and take aim, if you try to do that you die. You have to get off a shot quickly. Now, assume that the responder doesn't have the training of a police officer to get off a shot quickly. Now the scenario is even worse. Then, add in any other situation. Like a cramped hallway, or an explosive device, crowds of people screaming and trying to take cover or get away, in this case tear gas and darkness. What you just described is a hollywood scene, it isn't real life. Head shots are difficult in Call of Duty. In real life, that goes x10.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 04:41 AM) I don't know why you have the right to a legitimate defense when he was caught doing it. He did it. To the attorneys out there: If I was guilty of killing a few people in Kansas and the national media didn't give a f*** about the case, wouldn't I be tried within a month and after a trial that lasted, oh about a day, quietly be sent up the river or given the death penalty? In this case, I hate the fact it's going to be highly publicized and he's going to get a great defense team who want the publicity, etc. This man killed a f***ing 6 year old and her mother; he killed eight others, wounded 70 or something. He has no rights. Why? Cause there's no doubt. He was seen doing it. He did it. The only court case will be a bunch of made for TV crap. Damn I can't believe that coward didn't take his own life or raise his gun to a cop so he could have got Bonnie and Clyded. f***. And I dont think you have to be f***ed up in the head to do what he did. You watch pretty much any action movie and people are getting assault guns and blowing zillions away. I'm sure he just took on a character. He isn't insane. He ordered all the ammo. he's guilty; kill him please. I think I need to speak to a minister about why evil like this happens. 6th Amendment to the US Constitution... like it or not, it applies to everyone no matter what

It gets much worse in other places than it does in here. I vouch for Y2HH. People think he's bats*** crazy but he's really not, lol.

I know I'm not the only one who couldn't understand like 40% of what the f*** Bane was saying was I?
