  1. Good news. /sigh Here's how Fox made bad golf TV out of the 2015 U.S. Open
  2. Report: P. Diddy arrested after fight with UCLA football coach
  3. Ducks taking one more shot at re-signing Matt BeleskeyMaybe I'm reading too much into it. But I find it interesting that he used the odd numbers in years, 1, 3, 5, 7. I think most of us think 3 years is about right. Could it be that Beleskey is looking for a 5 or even a 7 year deal?
  4. I'm just surprised that Manfred is even considering it. He denied betting on the majors as a manager for years. Even with the signed confession that MLB used to ban him for life. And yet he kept fighting it and fighting it. Then admitted he bet as a manager. He's a piece of trash. If anything, they should ban him from participating in the All Star Game.
  5. I'm still waiting for the Dorner movie. Although I'm disappointed that they aren't in Mexico already trying to restore a boat on a beach.
  6. According to this. LOL http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2015/06/21/tv-ratings-saturday-us-open-golf-coverage-bests-premier-boxing/419800/ US Open did a 0.8 rating. Barely beating out Premiere Boxing at a 0.7 according to adjusted numbers.
  7. If I'm reading it right. http://www.sportsmediawatch.com/2014/06/u-s-open-final-round-earns-horrible-3-3-overnight-rating/ 2014, ratings did a "horrible" 3.3. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2015/06/22/tv-ratings-sunday-celebrity-family-feud-battlebots-start-strong-a-d-the-bible-continues-finale-flat-american-odyssey-down/420176/ Not sure if these are the same ratings. But according to that site, it did a 1.7 on Sunday.
  8. Wish they gave more stats. Even comparing her defensive style at SS. Of her fielding. her throw and transfer looks good. Although it looks like someone like me is hitting grounders to her. Nothing too difficult. For her age. Not a bad swing. But seems to load up a bit.
  9. Since this thread is obviously not getting the attention it deserves. What do people think about having all gun owners licensed? Say like a drivers license type situation. For handguns/shotguns (pretty much home defense type stuff) you would need a basic license. Which includes a written test to show competency in using, storing, maintaining your gun. And a firearm test, to show that you at least have some competency of shooting the gun, including the use of the safety, and other basic uses. Then you would have higher levels of a license for more powerful type guns, which includes a mental and physical eval depending on the class of gun. Of course background checks that are in place now would be involved on all levels. Then when you want to buy ammo or a gun, you would show a license, it would get verified, and away you go. Similar to 21 and over for alcohol, for buying ammo, although you would only be able to buy ammo for the class level of gun you are approved for. Just a thought.
  10. Chinese woman pays to rescue 100 dogs from meat festival: report
  11. Dustin Johnson thinks the US Open's bumpy greens affected the putt that cost him the tournament, and he might have a point
  12. A 17-year-old invented an ingenious way to instantly stop bleeding
  13. Extra butter on mine please. Might as well pay the extra for the 3d while I'm at it. I hope this is a good show.
  14. Yes it did expire. Then they passed the USA Freedom act a day later. Only difference was the mass collection of phone stuff. Which would need a federal court to approve. Other than that, all the other infringements are alive and well.
  15. Dustin Johnson’s Dream Turns Real on No. 18, Then Nightmare Sets In
  16. This has been an argument on the Angels board for years. And yet the only big FA's that have signed here pretty much got the golden goose. And yet, you hear over and over, the Kings players signing back with them at a discount. It would be nice if someone signed a short term deal at a discount with the ducks. 3/$9-3/$10.5 would be such a deal. IMO, if we have to overpay, then let him walk.
  17. Yes, it works just fine. Then again, the load we use it then what you probably used it for is much different. It's probably only one for an hour or two a day. only days like today are when it's on for a longer period.
  18. Pod racing. Jake Lloyd, Star Wars' Anakin Skywalker, Arrested After Car Chase—Get Details
  19. So it wasn't just me on a HDTV, with Nates big ass TV, that couldn't see it. Hell, with their coverage, they might as well used the glowing puck, and it might have been an improvement. Sad thing is. Turico was missed, but he was solid in the first place. And I missed Berman. That is how bad the announcers were. BTW. Seattle should never ever get another Major. It was a circus out there. Sorry, but yellling out whatever phrase before a golfer hits his shot makes you an a hole.
  20. Wonder what Arod is going to get. No wait, 3000 hits is a painting.
  21. Johnston is going on a major bender after this one. We'll see him after a 2 year injury timeout by the PGA.
