I think the showrunners have made it abundantly clear now that almost anything is on the table as far as 'disturbing content' goes. Carol has to be completely dead inside at this point. I don't know how she can not be.

Nebraska is super tough at home, and as other's have said, were playing for their tourney lives. Still, I didn't like the way Bucky was just throwing it up late in the game instead of looking for good shots. I know you're short on time, but they weren't even attempting to find or create a good look, they were just heaving up 3's with multiple defenders in their faces, and the results were pretty plain to see.

Hammond: "We've come to the realization that, for a small market team like ourselves, if we're gonna add an impact player, the most logical way to do that is through the draft". GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. BAD WORDS. REALLY!!??? REALLY!?? I mean..... You want to just jump in there and add "We've FINALLY come to the realization....." for him. IDIOT. IDIOT. CLOWNSHOES. This article only confirms all the things we already knew about the Bucks, and Hammond, and Kohl, but this literally made me want to punch things, and throw things through walls.

Nope. Already got money tied up in Garza now, and I just don't like Gallardo's performance trend.

I guess I don't see how it's complicated. The catcher can't block the plate if he doesn't have the ball. Runners can't bowl the catchers over like an NFL linebacker crushing WR's crossing the middle. That seems pretty cut and dry.

Heck, he hit 50 twice with that home park! I know. I meant to say 60!

Yeah, have to agree there. Anyone who could put up his power numbers in that joint ......wow. I know there are some who would say "he'd hit 50 in today's band boxes".........well, I'm sure that's possible, but......let's just say he'd be a premier slugger, and leave it at that.

It's not that I 'don't care', but there's no law or reason that some one accused of what he did can't work. That's up to him and the employer to hash out over the morality aspect of it I guess.

So.....anyways Grabbed The Worlds End at the red box Friday night, and really to sum it up, if you liked Hot Fuzz, you cant not like this. Simon Pegg has a savagely vulgar sense of humor. If you're offended by the F word, stay far, far away.

Is POOOOOOOLAR VOOOOOOOORTEX something we've recently discovered, or something new we can fashionably blame on global warming? I already want to start punching people now when they say "Polar Vortex" whenever it gets into single digits.

Really wish people would start utilizing this thread more. I watched a lot of movies I otherwise would have missed because of this thread.

No, but nothing you did say is defensible. Let's take your statements one by one: Molitor is a hypocrite: A hypocrite is someone who accuses someone else of doing something the accuser himself has done. If Molitor had said "We should condemn A-Rod because, at some point in his life, he used a prohibited drug," then he would be a hypocrite. Of course, that isn't what Molitor said. He called A-Rod out for using a specific drug that, in Molitor's (and most people's) view, allowed him to cheat at baseball. In addition, Molitor used cocaine as a very young man for a relatively brief period, figured out the error of his ways, admitted his mistake, and moved on. It's apples and oranges. No hypocrisy here. "Part of the criteria for being in the HOF is 'character'": No it isn't: http://baseballhall.org/hall-famers/rules-election/bbwaa. Even if it were, a lot of HOFers have severe and well-documented character flaws, so the character criterion would be meaningless. Molitor is a "douchebag": The statement doesn't deserve a response; it indicts itself and you. I will say that, the one time I was involved in corresponding with Molitor, he was gracious and generous. Molitor was a coke addict: This is the one statement in your post that has an element of truth to it. According to this account of his former agent's book, Molitor called his condition at the end of 1980 an addiction: http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1499&dat=19930927&id=q6IaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xSwEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6480,4539171. Apparently he quit cold turkey and didn't require treatment, so I'm not sure a physician would have considered him an addict. Your statement is still misleading, I'll assume inadvertently, because your lack of qualification suggests that Molitor was a coke addict in general. In fact he appears to have used cocaine only during part of 1979 and all of 1980 and to have developed a serious problem only in the later part of that span. The judgmental tone of your statement, while it's your prerogative, strikes me as extremely harsh, given that Molitor was a very young man, under a lot of pressure, in an era when cocaine use was rampant in sports and society; quit when he realized the problem was out of his control; and grew up. Overall, you couldn't have written a less truthful, more corrosive post if you had tried. I will grant that the 'douchebag' part was, as stated, corrosive, and unnecessary, and I'll leave it at that.

It may be called the Hall of Fame, but it says right on the ballot that one of the crieteria to be used is character and inegrity. 5. Voting: Voting shall be based upon the player's record, playing ability, integrity, sportsmanship, character, and contributions to the team(s) on which the player played. With that being said, I would rather see those guys in that not. I'm just pointing out that I find it hypocritical that guys like Molitor can say "those guys shouldn't be in" when their own 'character and integrity' were certainly lacking at points in their own lives. Don't cast stones, glass houses, blah blah blah.

Yeah, because he was the only guy in the Hall of Fame from that era who did cocaine, right? Right, because that's exactly what I said. Nice strawman argument.

Given the money that some of these other guys are getting, this is almost a steal. I really like this move. No draft pick comp, he's a top of the rotation guy.....there is almost no reason to not like this move. I know the argument will be that "are the Brewers really in 'go for it' mode?" But as long as you have a guy like Ryan Braun in his prime years, you almost HAVE to try to put a team capable of contending around him.

Molitor is a hypocrite. Part of the criteria for being in the HOF is 'character', and he was a douchebag coke addict.

So Zips still thinks Weeks is a better option than Gennett. Can't say that I disagree. That's a VERY optimistic projection for Reynolds, and if we got .800 and 29 homers out of him, I guess I wouldn't be all that upset. I just don't see it. .780 for Khris Davis........eh...I'm hoping for more.

That's a huge regression for Gomez. Ouch.

Barf. A 1B who has produced an .800 OPS 3 times in 7 years. I don't even care about the strikeouts, it's just that he's just not a run producer.

This, to me, is really the big difference between this year and Bo Ryan's other squads. On any given night, someone can light up the scoreboard. UW's offense is a lot more dynamic with guys all over the floor that are capable of doing different things with the ball, rather than just stand beyond the arc, pass around, and someone takes a 3 with 3-4 seconds left on the shot clock.

Badgers got mauled on the glass, and still won by 25. This is a totally different brand of UW basketball. They'll definitely move up to #3 this week, I should think, and deservedly so. They've done more than enough to prove that they belong up there this year.

Maybe this is how they intend to rebuild the farm system. Sign K-Rod to a one year deal every year, and trade him in July for a prospect or two. 5-6 years from now, we'll have 6-7 decent prospects all from K-Rod trades!

Yesterday I picked my wife up from work just after 4 pm. She commented that "it doesn't seem too terribly cold out, today, does it?" Drove past the mall. * -2 F * "No, it actually isn't too bad today" I realize us northern folk are hearty stock and all, but you know it's been brutal cold when -2 seems "not that bad"

1 - 5.) I want to see some signs that the franchise is moving forward in building towards a long-term strategy for being competitive, which includes talent evaluation and talent development, rather than continuing to patch holes with mid-tier, overpriced free agents.

He should have added "except for all the guys on Brewerfan that kept putting me in the trade rumors section for the last 4-5 years in every single trade proposal"
