  1. Im on episode 4 of the current season. it's good but it isn't as good as the first couple seasons.
  2. I binged the whole Wire series in 2014 when i was staying up late with my newborn. I liked it a lot! Then I tried to watch OZ and I dont think that aged well, couldn't stick with it.
  3. I have one that i havent even opened yet. I have the NES mini too which my 3 year old is just starting to get the hang of so i will introduce her to the SNES soon. im not super tech savy but i built an emulator out of a raspberry pi by watching a youtube video but i thought the games felt a little laggy and not all the controls worked correctly so i broke down and bought the NES instead. I love it i just dont have much time to play, looking forward to introducing my daughter to Yoshi with the SNES.
  4. If he isn't cutting it at the plate in the big leagues can't we let him pitch a game for the angels and then send him down to AAA for 2/3 games between starts to work on his hitting?
  5. I drove down to SD a few weeks ago and noticed a wall of clouds off the coast. Is that what you are talking about when referring to the "massive high pressure ridge"? Because i had never seen this before and i grew up here.
  6. I agree with you Tank. I myself do not own a gun but that is only because when I was looking into buying one my wife vetoed that idea. I have 4 friends that own AR 15s. Only one of them has a military background. They are all great gun owners who are knowledgeable and safe with their weapons. However, it is easy to see the amount of damage this gun could do in a very short amount of time if it fell into the wrong hands. If my buddies need to give up their "hobby" so that less children die when a mass shooter has to take a hunting rifle/handgun to a school instead of an AR 15 then I am all for it. I wouldn't be for taking away all guns but the fact that the AR 15 has been the gun of choice in mass shootings lately also tells me that the crazy murders see the advantages of it too.
  7. I wonder if on his "rest" days if he would still be available to pinch hit. Could be a nice power bat off the bench in the late innings
  8. My wife is a substitute teacher for the schools in juvenile hall/probation program and she was subbing in a class last week with 17 year olds and she said she saw two hard looking gang bangers holding hands under their desk. She said "Made me think of that meme with the two guys in the tub together".
  9. I heard it was Mike Smith from Calgary taking Quicks spot
  10. I use an Iphone, ipad and apple tv but i can not bring myself to pay their price for a laptop. I would rather pay $500-600 for a new dell/Lenovo laptop with the same specs as a macbook pro and when it turns to shit in a 3-4 years i just buy another one for a similar price. Even after 10-15 years of doing this I havent spent as much as i would have if i just bought a macbook pro to start with.
  11. Im not a big Star Wars nerd but I have enjoyed the last 3 films more than all the other movies in the series. Im glad you guys mentioned Broom Boy because I thought i saw him move the broom but when i asked my wife about it after the movie she had no idea what i was talking about.
  12. Solarte would be a good target, plays all over the infield with solid production for cheap. Not sure what it would take to get him though.
  13. I was surprised it took this long for someone to say Garfield! My 3 y/o daughter has been obsessed with that movie lately! The only non animated movie she watches. It's still garbage.
  14. They probably left the camper there on purpose. Collect the insurance money and get a brand new one.
  15. I love Gibson but you gotta give the next start to Miller following a shutout
  16. The only plus is that if Eaves is really out long term then we will get salary cap relief and might be able to add a substantial piece... I'm trying to find the positive here.
  17. I like those pairings. Beauch is a good mentor for Megna
  18. Yea when I was 8-9 my mom and I took a train from Fullerton to Chicago. Took 2.5 days but it would be a lot easier trip these days with smartphones and tablets. Gets pretty boring in the middle of the country and the towns we went through were mostly crappy. If you can afford to spend 5 days traveling to and from Chicago I guess it is worth it. The California route up north is way more scenic.
  19. Torii for sure. I was in a casino in Laughlin when I saw the news. I had always been a big fan of his and we had signed GMJR a season or 2 before that so you didn't think we would be going after another CF. It also helps that he performed well through his contract.
  20. You know 1-3 of those Dmen will be hurt during training camp/preseason/early season. so I am sure Megna or Larson will get a few games too. Maybe the front office is still exploring a Vats trade and the signed Beauchemin as insurance. Its hard to complain about 1 yr for 1 mil since depth is never a bad thing. Do we really want a situation like a few years ago where we have to give up picks for someone like Brewer?
  21. Went to Vegas this weekend and the casinos must be hurting for money. My wife and I just stayed one night at Caesars Palace. The room was really nice, I believe it was $209 for the night but they charge for everything! There is a mini Keurig in the room but no coffee was included. We were allowed to purchase a coffee kit for $13, not sure what was in it but the package was only big enough to hold 2 k-cups. Self parking was $12 a day, and they charged us for 2 days even though we were there for less than 15 hours. They also charge a $39.99 resort fee per day even if you don't use any of their amenities. Is there a way to do Vegas anymore without paying $100+ in fees and bullsh*t for a 2 night stay?
  22. Jose Rodriguez: 6 IP, 7 H, ER, 6 K - last two GS: 12 IP, 10 H, 1.50 ERA, 0 BB, 19 K does that mean in the start before this last one he pitched 6 innings and got 13 Ks? That's dominant!
  23. Cullen signing with Minn for 1 year at $1 mil is a deal I wish we would have pursued. He would have been a great bottom 6 center that could step up to a top 6 role if we had more injuries. He probably only was willing to sign with the wild because he is a Minnesota native but still bummed we couldn't land him.
  24. You will get the most value out of buying the used car. It was probably a lease so it should have had all its scheduled maintenance and should be under warranty still. If you do go the used route see if the dealer is willing to cover any regular maintenance for a certain amount of miles/years. Leasing only makes sense if you want to get a new car every few years. The one time I leased a car and tried to buy it at the end of the lease they wanted more for it then I could have bought a similar used car. That was my experience.
