  1. Turkish forces shell Syrian air base captured by Kurds This is going to end well.
  2. Like we have the prospects to get anything useful atm.
  3. Just so happens..... Bryce Harper fields $400 million question: 'Don't sell me short' This is the 2018 class. Trout won't be a FA till 2020. Among the players that the article listed, Harper and Kershaw are probably the most likely. Kershaw will already be at $32-33 million a season. Stanton will also hit the $32 million mark. $35 million a season? $40 million a season? Then would come Trout. And here is the thing. We know TV revenue is what is driving this. At what point will TV revenues be tapped out? Because cord cutting is becoming more and more popular. And probably the biggest reason for rising TV costs is sports. Oh, and remember the stadium decision is coming up also. And it does not look like Anaheim will bend over backwards in paying for a stadium.
  4. Got to admit. When I saw the stat of something like 30 out of 80 in the shootout for Perry, I chuckled. That's when I knew we already gave up on the game.
  5. Lawsuit contends the California bullet train project is violating state law I just wish this would go away.
  6. I actually think this might hold. The US and Europe already know they can't compete in Syria. If they keep holding on, it just means more pain for the civilians. US and Europe can't just keep arming and training the moderate rebels, to face the Hezbola, Iranian, and Russian military. They just won't hold up. Then you have the group that looks like they can hold Syria, and a member nation says they are terrorists, along with that group seems to have an "understanding" with Syria and Russia. As seen by the Kurdish embassy newly open in Moscow. I also noticed in the ceasefire, that there is no mention of ousting Asaad. IMO, this is mainly Europe saying they can't handle the refugees, and they need the war to end. And the only way for that to happen is stop the losing battle, and really go after who they need to go after, ISIS and like organizations.
  7. Look on the bright side AO. If el Nino brought too much rain. There would be so much standing water, that Zika would be all over the news since there would be so many mosquitos.
  8. One possibly two year from FA'cy, and it's obvious that he isn't going to sign and extension and is going to bolt for either Baltimore, Philly, or NY. Then you would have to be the most idiotic organization ever not to trade him for a boatload of prospects.
  9. Andersen didn't look good at all in that shootout. Wouldn't be surprised if he was hurt.
  10. Getzlaf being Getzlaf in the OT again. At least he didn't turn it over resulting in a goal.
  11. World powers agree to Syria ceasefire I'm assuming that this does not include ISIS and whatever that Al Queda faction is.
  12. I was big on Fowler. But that was when he was going to be teamed up with Zobrist/Murphy. Fowler alone, I just don't think it's worth it atm.
  13. I seriously did not know who Andrelton Simmons was until we traded for him and I researched him a bit. Especially in the NL. Like half of the Rockies people wanted to trade for. I guess I just follow the Angels closely and ignore the rest.
  14. Didn't they just sign Guererro like last year or something like that? And wasn't he supposed to be their future secondbaseman? Going off shady memory here, so might be wrong.
  15. Actually don't know who I'm going to vote for. Won't be Hillary or Trump. And by the time the primaries for CA comes along, it'll probably be only 2 or 3 candidates left for each party. So just going to wait it out
  16. So instead of sending in ground troops to Iraq where they may have more support, they will send it into Syria where Iran will have a big say in it. Makes sense.
  17. Bernie just found out that no matter what happens, and how great he is. He still plays for the Lions.
  18. In other words, still a monopoly for in market teams.
  19. Missing woman's body was in Walmart parking lot for months Not that this is surprising.
  20. Just got an alert for my neighborhood. Fundraiser will be in town today, expect many road closures. /sigh
