  1. His contract will not be renewed. It expires at the end of the month. That's that.
  2. Maybe with a fiery type of manager this club would have had somebody that could have motivated them to have the best record and offense in the majors last year. Alas, we are stuck with the terrible manager that we have. Woe is us. Claude, I hate to break it to you, but Mike Scioscia (the guy you want gone) is somewhat likely to end up being placed in the Hall of Fame as a manager. Once again, woe is us. FIRE SCIOSCIA for FIERY MANAGER!
  3. This board is amazing when a new ________ is elected. When Obama was elected, we had insinuations of him being the actual antichrist. I'm sure that if Hilary is elected, we'll get similar stuff.
  4. Search for Twitch and prepare to feel old.
  5. It's a position of strength.Also, it's his first season with the WRs. Likens was WR coach last year before he left this offseason to be OC at Kansas.
  6. He'll be gone and it's relatively early in the recruiting cycle. I think that aspect will be alright. He was a pretty freaking good coach. What a horrible decision.
  7. Could you please direct me to the exact part of this thread in which you made a comprehensive and nuanced argument that serves as the Yin to the alleged personal attack Yang?
  8. I don't think that this post accomplishes for you what you thought it would. Also, please don't pretend that your butthurt over these people doesn't stem from gamergate. I'm a big fan of people that attempt to inflict a burn on others for using livejournal and Tumblr from the pages of urbandictionary. It's pretty solid form.
  9. You would think that students that have attended second grade would understand how to properly use "four" and "for."
  10. I did watch the video,which was obviously recorded before the speech. I was just wondering if Poozy had done any digging beyond "blah blah liberal university blah blah." PS - disclaimer and washing of hands here
  11. Also, Poozster, any update on whether he spoke at that liberal university or if the university itself came even remotely close to not having him speech? Hint: Uhhhhhhhhhhhh... More than 4,000 people signed an online petition calling on Berkeley to rescind the invitation. Nicholas B. Dirks, chancellor at Berkeley, said that the university could not withdraw invitations because of the political comments made by speakers. In advance of commencement, Dirks met with some of the students who wanted the university to call off Maher's appearance, and sent these students a letter. In the letter, Dirks wrote: "Free speech is a basic right and is not only constitutionally protected but also a value that is encoded in the DNA of Berkeley. And yet the current controversy makes clear the extent to which free speech can cause pain, offense, and even outrage. Our history – as a campus, as a community, and indeed as a nation – makes clear this is an inevitable effect of free speech, and it is a fact that courts have invariably stricken efforts to legislate limits on free speech that may be judged as offensive or even intentionally hateful. And yet as a campus we have, particularly lately, come to be increasingly cognizant of and concerned about the ways in which expression can create and/or intensify stereotypes – essential categories of assumption, prejudice, and attribution – about different identities and social categories." He added: "While I recognize and agree with some of the concerns that have been expressed, any effort to constrain or limit the conditions around invitations to speak – whether at commencements or other public event – risks compromising the fundamental values that free speech protects. Who can speak freely? Which opinions might be justly censored? What criteria can be imposed neutrally and fairly? Who judges? How can feelings of offense, or hurt, constitute legitimate grounds for limits not just on speech but on invitations to speak on campus? Surely a university – especially this university — has an obligation to promote speech, opinion, and argument at its most robust." Ruh roh, that's not going to work with your preconceived notions. Bummer.
  12. This was undoubtedly the easiest game of mobile phone based "Guess The OP By Thread Title Alone" in quite a while. I think the last one close to being this easy was entitled "Long Beach State Wrestlemania: Get Him Out Of There, Mike!!!!!"
  13. Oh, look, Phil has his broad paintbrush out again.
  14. The new Dell XPS looks amazing, but I dunno. The Surface Pro 3 is at the top of my list now.
  15. You. Start memorizing the playbook, buddy.
  16. My belief is that had they not screwed up the handling of the situation so thoroughly, Mr. Throw At The 1 would still be running the show and you guys would have another title or two.
  17. They lost titles becuz they acted entitled. Stupid, stupid USC.
