    I would rather have Randle at that price than have Rondo at 9mil.  They better know Kawhi is coming next year for sure.

    I have enjoyed all the star wars movies but I am not a true fan by any means.  I saw Solo and liked it too.  It was fun and i thought all the actors were great.  I dont understand the hate either.

    I love live sports, but the cost/hassle of attending games plus the quality of HDTV leave me with little motivation to attend more than 1-2 games a year and i live a 5 min drive from Angels stadium or ponda.

    They should be grading all umpires on their accuracy of the strike zone in all levels of baseball.  Demote the bottom 20% each season to the minors and promote the top 20% of minor league umpires to replace them.  This way we force the umpires to be as accurate as possible if they want to make MLB money as well as give the better minor league umps a way for them to get into the show.

    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.

    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".

    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.

    does that mean in the start before this last one he pitched 6 innings and got 13 Ks?  That's dominant!

    I understand that but Daenerys armies need to eat too.  They went to an abandoned dragonstone which probably had little food.  She then sends her forces to Casterly Rock which Jaimie said they cleared out of food before the invasion.  Food is going to be an issue for her and Jon Snow's men.  I would think that they could have captured those supplies and used them instead of turning them to ash.  Maybe they saved some of it but the whole scene where the dragon just destroys a long line of supplies instead of the of the soldiers that were on either side of the supplies seemed to me like a waste.  Maybe they eat all the dead soldiers and my whole point is moot.

    yea I didn't understand the strategy there.  I would have used the dragon to bbq all the soldiers and then had the Dothraki take all the supplies back to dragonstone.   Why destroy all the supplies that are loaded into wagons and ready for transport?

    When I was buying my first place in 2010 I was only approved for 180K so everything in my price range was selling for over the list price and fast.  It was so frustrating seeing offer after offer not being accepted even when I was offering at list or 5K over. This went on for 6 months with 50+ offers submitted.  We finally got contacted buy a listing agent of the 3rd condo I had put an offer in on.  Their original buyer fell through so they were contacting me to see if I was still interested.  Worked out well for me.  So when a listing agent says they will take your offer as a back up it might work out for you in the end.  Hang in there.

    Now that the ED is over, who do you guys want the Ducks to target in free agency?  I like Eaves and would be fine with him at $2.5 or less for 2 years but he will probably be offered more by another team.  We need a 3rd line center and a left wing so what if we got Thornton and Marleau and put them on the 3rd line together? Instant chemistry and  I think they would both take a discount to stay in CA and go to a team with a real shot at the cup.  I would be ok with Vanek on a 1 year deal after his good season with Detroit last year but it would have to be a 1 year deal to keep him motivated.  Miller for backup goalie seems to fit too well to not happen, hopefully he is willing to take a backup pricetag too.   We will need to pick up a 7th dman too but I would be fine bringing Holzer back if he is willing to take the same roll again.

    I work down the street and on my first day my boss took me here for lunch.  It was really good!  A month later it was Christmas and the same boss gave all of his employees $20 gift cards to there.  I lost the gift card in my desk and found it a year later.  Went there for lunch but when we tried to pay with the gift card they said they have a new payment system now and wouldn't take the gift card...  The way they handled that situation made it so I couldn't justify going back there.
