Looks like ESPN is laying off people too. Jon Greenberg and Scott Powers both tweeted that they're done at ESPN at the end of the year.

Bears vs Vikings Week 8, 11/1 noon on Fox

So Ratliff apparently told a Bears staffer "I wish your kids would die". http://www.tmz.com/2015/10/30/jeremiah-ratliff-police-report-told-bears-staffers-i-wish-your-kids-would-die/ -
How about we just never do that? Yeah, that sounds like a solid plan.

At least he only took 2 And considering his vision is screwed up, it's hardly a great time to criticize his 3pt shot. I think we have enough of a sample size at this point...... But why bring it up now? After a game when the guy has blurry vision and only put up 2 three point shots. "Boy he sure does look awkward doing that thing that his injury is diminishing his ability to do well, and that he didn't do well to begin with and barely attempted last night...." I mean...cool. Thanks for bringing it up and stuff.

Twitter is awful for discussion. It's a mess to read. It's amazing as a place for consolidating a bunch of news sources and stuff like that, and getting links to articles, but when people try to argue or have discussions on there it's just a cluster [expletive] of unreadable Tweets one after another. After that you have, what? Facebook and Instagram comments? That's like a half step above news article/blog comments as the darkest underbelliest dumbest parts of the internet. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I don't really see any newer social media platforms that are better at doing what we do than this one. I prefer this, too. We're obviously in the minority. You can disagree with it all you want, but a ton of people basically abandoned this type of format for newer social platforms. To me, Reddit is more of the new style message board. Format complaints aside, it's basically one giant, subdivided message board, and has just absolutely crushed the whole like/dislike system that many here clamored for.

I wish I could give a like to Derwood liking a post about twitter being bad.

I get that it's faster paced and it seems to lead to more goals vs shootouts but I'm not a huge fan No shootouts means I love it. Also, the Hawks should petition the league to play the entire game 3 on 3, because clearly they are awesome at it.
-
Yeah, better get used to these. If anything, they'll add more. There's clearly an interest in the game over there.

Many posters continually stated that "the cupboard was bare" and that Hendry depleted the organization of talent deeply and completely, so maybe you ought to get on them for hyperbole. My point in posting on this topic is all of the hyperbole about Hendry left nothing and Theo magically waved his magic wand and produced Rizzo, Russell, etc. Ok, ignoring whether you're right or wrong.... Who the hell cares? Honestly? Why is this a thing?

Let's All Freak Out About Jorge Soler, You Guys
Banedon replied to ctcf's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I think many people range between mildly and wildly optimistic about Soler because he has stretches where he looks like he's pretty much God's gift to baseball. Except that he never looks comfortable in the field. Or when the temperature dips below 60. -

I really don't lake for total hours of sleep generally, 7-8, but I just can't sleep in on the weekends anymore. 7am usually is about it. 8am is really sleeping in! And it's all my son's fault. He turns 9 in a few weeks, so it's not like I need to sleep lightly anymore, but somehow I've never managed to sleep in after he was born.
