QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 01:03 PM) Aren't most of the guys there on NBA deals that they send down there? Just looked it up. It doesn't lock out, just guys on NBA deals can't play. Might actually be a good idea for rookies.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 01:01 PM) Isn't the D-league shutdown with the lockout? I'm 90% certain that for some reason, it isn't.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 11:02 AM) If the season doesn't start, D-Will has signed a contract to play in Turkey Interesting. I'd like to see guys sign with the D-League just to mess with people. But at the same time, if players start doing this I want to see Joakim sign in France, Lu in Britain, and Derrick with Real Madrid.

QUOTE (FlySox87 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 08:34 AM) Umm, that's what I just said... Wow, misread that as "aren't". Carry on.

QUOTE (FlySox87 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 12:42 AM) I'm not against all treaties. Official agreements with other nations are vital to any nation's survival. I'm just against treaties that offer up our national sovereignty. 100 years ago, sure. In this world where every nation is slowly becoming interconnected, that's impossible. Official agreements are necessary for our trade, which without, we would flounder.

QUOTE (FlySox87 @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 09:36 PM) Let him meet with his consulate. When they're done, carry out te sentence as planned. I'm not much of a fan of treaties that impede on our national sovereignty and subject our inner workings to foreign scrutiny, but that's a whole 'nother can of worms. What I'm worried about here is that this may turn out to be a backhanded attempt to entirely prevent the otherwise legal execution of a convicted murderer. That mustn't be allowed. Yeah, but if we want to be a player on the world stage, which we need to sustain our economy and go about our lives, we have to sign treaties. If Iran can agree to this treaty, then no reason we can't. Unless we want to see American's arrested left and right and not being given the right to the American consulate then being executed, then by all means we should execute the guy. But even if meeting with the Mexican consulate somehow gets him out of the sentence, so be it. His death isn't worth the death of dozens of possible Americans.

Oh bother. Yes, lets worsen ourselves in the scientific field.

I got that from this thread.

This is a great idea, to break Treaty's because of Texas' wants that will end up screwing over tons of Americans.

So, to pass lockout time I've made 4 teams on NBA 2k11. Bulls (Dynasty Years) C - Olajuwon, Ewing PF - Malone, Kemp, Rodman SF - Pippen, Wilkins, Barkley SG - Jordan, Drexler PG - Payton, Stockton Celtics (Magic v. Bird Years) C - Abdul Jabbar, Parish PF - Malone, McHale SF - Bird, Worthy SG - Gervin, Erving, Dumars PG - Johnson, Thomas, Johnson Lakers (Post-Jordan) C - Shaq, Mourning PF - Duncan, Garnett, Nowitzki SF - Hill, Pierce SG - Kobe, Carter, Allen PG - Kidd, Nash Spurs (New Era) C - Dwight, Gasol PF - Amar'e, Bosh, Griffin SF - LeBron, Durant SG - Wade, Anthony (couldn't think of a SG over Melo) PG - Rose, Paul, Williams Each player plays 20 minutes a game, to keep things even. It's fun to do when I feel sad over the lockout. 'Nique is currently killing the Celtics.

I would enjoy a Lexi-bomb.

That man is an All-Star.

How about another Paulie?

KEENYN!

Damn Paulie.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 05:38 PM) Oh heck no, I don't want two slappy hitters on the team. Trading Quentin and getting Bourn in return would be a really, really bad trade. This is if we've given up hope on this year. Also, forgot about Milledge. A Milledge-Bourn-Viciedo OF wouldn't be terrible for next year.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 03:50 PM) This is an interesting thought. Per FanGraphs: That would be a great reason to deal CQ or Rios for pitching prospects. Talk about solving the Juan Pierre problem! You run out Pierre/Bourn/Rios or Quentin for the ROS, let Pierre walk in the offseason and replace him with Viciedo. Now we actually have a real leadoff hitter! One might also speculate that Beachy could be the one flipped to the Astros for Bourn. Pure speculation, but it makes so much sense! If you did a Rios/Quentin for Beachy/Lowe and then flipped Beachy for Bourn I could live with Pierre/Bourn/Viciedo for the rest of the year. Then pray De Aza or Danks can make strides for next year.

Hackey sacks are fun, so I agree.
