I known it doesn't exist but that was clutch -
Willem Dafoe was cast as a good guy in Justice League. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-visi...em-dafoe-880889 The Flash movie has begun casting the roles of Iris West, Eobard Thawne and Captain Cold. http://heroichollywood.com/5-characters-ac...ing-flash-film/ Here is an interview with JK Simmons talking about playing Gordon in JL and the Batman films.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 10:03 PM) Yeah I don't see anyway Jones sticks at SS with his frame but I was saying the same thing about Seager when he was drafted. Seager is the biggest SS ever I believe though. Nolan Jones' has a similar body to Kris Bryant

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) Jones is so Miami I don't even see him getting to us. Rutherford, another candidate at #7 for Miami, would be welcomed by me at #10 if he gets there. Great bat-to-ball skills from the left side. Hostetler talked about the need for more contact guys and the fact that they won't be afraid to go with high school guys. Both good indicators for a guy like Rutherford. Rutherford screams Miami to me. I agree that the Sox need to prioritize contact more in the amateur scouting both domestic and international. I guess the easy comp on Jones is Corey Seager, I think Jones is a better athlete than Seager and can handle the glove better too. Jones hit tool is very real but if I were to draft him I would put him at third, so he can just focus on the bat.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 02:41 PM) I read an article that seemed legit and said he had a bad hip and bad ankle pain as well and after the concert in Atlanta ODed on painkillers. The fact his current tour was him sitting at a piano and exhibiting his piano skills and not standing much would lend credence to the pain thing, also that he had a glittery cane when he walked on stage. Sad he didn't just go for hip replacement surgery or something. Check out Prince's performance of Let's Go Crazy done impromptu at SNL's 40th anniversary party. it's all over the web today. So cool. I've "enjoyed" watching some performances of Prince and watching some interviews from the past in respect. Purple Rain has got to be one of the best 10 songs of all time and the way he was able to add some guitar solos in the midst of that song is pretty awesome. Seemed like a together guy. One of the rare celebs to mention his faith in God a lot. Not some crazy spirit God but the traditional God. I also love the fact he still lived in Minnesota. As far as I'm concerned that says something. I love Prince. Rest in Peace. p.s. I know adults who have died of flu. If you ever get a serious bout, don't let yourself get dehydrated. Don't be shy about going to emergency. Death is possible from the flu. http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/enterta...e-snl/83458354/ Some JW's stay away from some medical treatments or avoid it all together. Maybe that played into his death. His tolerance to pain medication might not have been that high. QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 03:11 PM) What a story! Prince truly is the reason you had the connection with your wife. You may not have ever struck up a good conversation, who knows? Thank u for the story. I feel sad about Prince today for some reason. Good music just seems to be part of what life is all about - how human beings are able to create such cool stuff can be uplifting. RIP Prince. My partner, not my wife. I meant the first wedding I ever went to.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 06:33 PM) Certainly a possibility with #27 & #49 picks. Though Hansen was a far better prospect at his height than Beck ever was. What if they ended up with both Puk and Hansen? I think the pick at ten is going to be one of the prep players, I'm hoping for Nolan Jones.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 22, 2016 -> 11:44 PM) I would be, SEC teams are crushing him Haven't been checking out his box scores as of late but the press is still pretty high on him still. I hope the Sox grab him at #26

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 22, 2016 -> 10:35 PM) Dakota Hudson's season has imploded If the Sox drafted him, I wouldn't be upset.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 22, 2016 -> 03:40 PM) Oh, no this is actually Ladyhawk, a fairly average vancouver indy rock band that had 2 songs (dugout and my old jackknife) that I really liked. Dugout is a great song. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladyhawk_(band) I completely misread your post.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 22, 2016 -> 12:41 PM) I opened itunes for the first time to try and cancel tidal, found I had added about 6gb of music on it I had forgotten about. Put me on a binge of some choice albums: Killer Mike - pledge allegiance to the grind (vol1) Ladyhawk - s/t The Ponys - turn the lights out Edan - Beauty and the Beat and tons of dj drama mixtapes. That was a fun era. The self titled LadyHawke album is very underrated. My Delirium and Paris is Burning are great songs

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 07:06 AM) That looks like a blast. It looks like a good time and way better than the original Magnificent Seven. I also guess this is the closest thing that I'm going to get to True Detective this year, since it not due back till 2017

A fair and balanced soliloquy about Jose Abreu, by ron
Boopa1219 replied to ron883's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Jose should be sent to Siberia and be forced to work in the freezing cold till his back gives out. -
It's true what they say: You can trace most babies and relationships back to Prince in some way.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 12:16 PM) Sox would be lucky if Perez fell that far. I have him being a top five pick

Before I had heart surgery a few years ago, me and my friends went downtown to hang out before I left for the operation. This was when I lived on Taylor and went to UIC. It was a group of like 15 and we went to Little Joe's for their karaoke night and everyone is having a good time. While I was getting a drink, my friend taps me on the shoulder and ask if it's cool if one of his friends from home can come out and I said sure. I expected it to be one of his guy friends but in walks his friend Hannah, who everyone knew I had a huge thing for, including her. While I'm far from being a social butterfly and not very sociable, I have no problem engaging with people but whenever I was around Hannah, I couldn't even open my mouth and when I did, I would say something that usually made no sense, before running away. I get my drink, get far away and wait my turn for the microphone. I guessed she noticed that I was avoiding her and she comes up and tells me that she heard about the operation and we strike up a conversation. I told her that I'm going to do a song and she says that she wants to sign up. She gives me her drink to to hold and tells the DJ what song she wants to do. It's my turn and I do Prince's Kiss. I see she's up next, so I give her the microphone and she looks at me funny. Her music starts playing and it's Little Red Corvette. Our conversation wasn't going anywhere before that but after that coincidence, me and her talked the whole night and exchanged numbers. We talked nonstop and about a month later she asked me out and we've been together since. So I guess I have Prince to thank for that. Prince was my one of my first concerts. He played during my first dance at wedding. And my mom and sisters, who are all lifelong dancers would take out a record player, throw on some Prince and dance through our house. I was even Prince for Halloween last year. Needless to say, I was pretty devastated by the news of Prince's death. Him and his music have always been a constant in my life. RIP Your Badness.

The Sox are dead last in walks with 28 (prior to today's game). The Cubs are first with 70. -

The game is over guys, Sale got what he needs. We can all go home. -
This is the trailer to the upcoming Magnificent Seven film. It stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt. Directed by Antoine Fuquam who did Training Day and Southpaw. Do I think it looks better than Seven Samurai? Absolutely not. I do think it looks better than the original Magnificent Seven and anytime Washington and Fuqua do a movie together it turn out to be pretty good. Good to see a resurgence of westerns.

On my Mac desktop, I have about a month's worth of music. I don't know how much space that is. I don't have any music saved onto my iPhone or laptop, I use Apple Music. And yes, I'm a Apple whore.

20 Players Who Could Be Dealt At Deadline (MLB.com)

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 20, 2016 -> 08:20 AM) Nationals have the best record in baseball (I think?) and they're going to trade Strasburg? Okay. In Duquette's defense he did say that they should consider it, if they are not in contention. Which makes a lot of sense because he is a free agent after the season, his agent is Scott Boras and they could get a big return for him, rather than an extra draft pick.
