- He was held out of practice for "sickness". I guess it was the Turk Flu. -- nm - David Aug 28, 10:52 3

    - Britt or Cook? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 28, 10:59
I had wondered what was going on. The Reuters opinion pages were hacked and that's why they've been down for over a week. -- (link) - spamlet Aug 28, 10:41

Kim, tru, Don Homer -- nm - amoxy Aug 28, 10:33
So apparently Pattinson is getting texts from Rihanna. -- (link) - Mel Profit Aug 28, 10:31 33
- Rihanna likes to get her name in the paper. -- nm - David Aug 28, 10:36 5
  - the more i see/hear about Rihanna the more i suspect she's a raging bitch. -- nm - Andie Aug 28, 10:39 4
    - she appears to be one to notch her belt - Epiphany Aug 28, 11:43
    - I just get the feeling that she's very, very messy and has a lot of maturing to do. -- nm - Diva Aug 28, 10:43 2
      - the numerous twitter wars with various people support your theory. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:45
      - I agree with this, and she wants to be edgy and shit. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:44
- I watched EW for 5 mins last night and they said he was with Katy Perry and Rihanna was either back with CB or with Rob Kardashain -- nm - MDH Aug 28, 10:36
- Its an upgrade ....I think -- nm - eag Aug 28, 10:33 22
  - Yeah, if she screws up he knows that not only can he hit her, but he actually *gains* points with her for it. -- nm - Spawn Aug 28, 10:56
  - I like K Stew, but I think this is a major upgrade. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:35 20
    - for Rihanna? -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:36 19
      - well, anyone who does not beat her would be an upgrade. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:36 18
        
        You would think so, but she apparently disagrees. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 28, 10:40
        
        Seriously,,, it's like the smallest hurdle on the planet. - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:37 1
        
        Rihanna and Ike Turner! nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:38
        
        Downgrade for him, IMO. Trouble follows Rihanna around. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:37 14
        
        I agree with loosi in this instance. she is a freakshow trainwreck wearing bananapants in hot messy crazytown. -- nm - amanda Aug 28, 10:45 2
        
        But what about Rihanna? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:50 1
        
        HEY! - loosilu Aug 28, 10:51
        
        self made trouble, I think. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:37 10
        
        exactly. she brings trouble to the men in her life. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:38 9
        
        She made Chris Brown beat her senseless? That's the logical step you're making. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:39 8
        
        i think Chris Brown is an idiot, but i do think Rihanna creates drama - that incident not includeed. -- nm - Andie Aug 28, 10:40 1
        
        I don't disagree with you in the general idea that she seems like drama....but he was beyond the pale. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:41
        
        no, that's the flip side. she picks bad dudes. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:40 5
        
        Then shouldn't we applaud her for bringing them trouble? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 28, 10:42
        
        no one deserves to get beat, regardless of their bad taste. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:41 1
        
        I did not in any way imply that she caused or deserved that. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:42
        
        Then she didn't bring trouble to the men; she picks troubled men. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:41 1
        
        I am saying she does both. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:42
- I wonder if they'll take turns treating the other like s**t? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:32 2
  - what has Pattinson done wrong? -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:35 1
    - Kristen Stewart, for one. - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:36
I bet Shaun is high fiving everyone around him right now. -- nm - David Aug 28, 10:25 5
- Especially since I didn't even need to swap any picks. -- nm - Shaun Aug 28, 10:28 2
  - We were in the same boat. I was holding my breath for half a dozen picks. -- nm - David Aug 28, 10:29 1
    - I was pretty relieved when Brian's options were outlined below :) -- nm - Shaun Aug 28, 10:36
- The CJ Spiller of 2012? -- nm - Strongbad Aug 28, 10:26 1
  - No, Wilson is more than just a sprinter. -- nm - David Aug 28, 10:29

- we broke it. few of the images are loading now. great shirts - zork Aug 28, 10:28
Every player I like seems to duplicate teams I already had represented....how can 32 teams yield so few varied options?! -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:21
Hey Groiny a bit of a history on my "friend" - eag Aug 28, 10:18 9
- he sounds like a douche. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:20 8
  - I was so upset I cried for like 20 minutes last night -- nm - eag Aug 28, 10:27 7
    - don't waste any more tears on this dude, he is a douche. - groiny Aug 28, 10:33 6
      - Its not just him its the whole thing that got to me last night -- nm - eag Aug 28, 10:37 5
        
        right, but as a friend, he should NOT be part of the problem. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 28, 10:38 4
        
        this. eff this guy eag. -- nm - Remlik Aug 28, 10:56
        
        And the one person that I would like to turn too - eag Aug 28, 10:41 1
        
        turn to some other friends -- nm - Epiphany Aug 28, 11:45
        
        *nods* -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:39
Has anyone successfully registered for the Win8 upgrade offer? - spamlet Aug 28, 10:17
As per Jonah Keri's Twitter... A school wants a deaf kid named Hunter to change his name at school because the sign for that is a gun. - Name Withheld By Request Aug 28, 10:15 38
- Ender posted a link earlier. It's pretty obvious that they don't want a three year old ladies' magnet making finger-guns at all the girls at daycare -- nm - Roger More Aug 28, 10:55
- I have no issue with it. I think it's extreme, but whatever. -- nm - CQ Aug 28, 10:32 5
  - do they have any kids named Dick? -- nm - CQ Aug 28, 10:33 4
    - imagine that Sign? -- nm - Mel Profit Aug 28, 10:38 3
      - "no, that's bj....no, that's stroking....okay, that picture of Nixon, good improvisation." -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:40 2
        
        "and honestly kid...I have no idea what you're doing there but I think I have to call the authorities." - Mel Profit Aug 28, 10:43 1
        
        "Why did you stick your tongue for that one? Career day is going to be interesting for you." -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:46
- I heard about this but haven't read the details ... do they mean legally change his name, or just call him by "H" or something? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 28, 10:26 5
  - His name in sign language is a gun-pointing thing.....the rules are simple -- don't point finger guns at people....so they want him to change his sign -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:27 4
    - Which is itself a ridiculous rule. -- nm - Ender Aug 28, 10:36 1
      - how can they shoot rubber bands at each other? such a lame rule -- nm - CQ Aug 28, 10:38
    - why do they assume he's pointing "it" at someone? -- nm - zork Aug 28, 10:32 1
      - I'm going to go out on a limb and say they've seen him do it? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:33
- Well, they want him to change the way he signs his name, not change his name. -- nm - mara Aug 28, 10:26 23
  - It's all ridiculous, regardless. -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 28, 10:54
  - Forget the name part, even if they didn't want to allow a deaf person to just sign the word "hunter" at all that would be ridiculous. It's straight up Big Brother shit. -- nm - Ender Aug 28, 10:40 1
    - Sure. -- nm - mara Aug 28, 10:42
  - to what? Toby? - zork Aug 28, 10:30 2
    - "This is my son. His name is 'genocide'. Well, we started with Gene O'Cide, but had to shorten it." -- nm - Beryllium Aug 28, 10:56 1
      - (One day I will have to Dr Stalk myself and find all these random quotes I write that aren't quoting anything, and make a story from them) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 28, 10:56
  - Which to someone that's deaf is the same thing. - spamlet Aug 28, 10:27 14
    - I don't agree. A closer analogy, to me, would be asking a kid to change the spelling or pronounciation of their name. - mara Aug 28, 10:29 9
      - it's deeper than that, IMO. -- nm - loosilu Aug 28, 10:38
      - Which would be changing their name. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 28, 10:37
      - The sign is the word. By using a different sign, it's a different word. - spamlet Aug 28, 10:32
      - no. ASL is a language and making him do a different sign is changing the word. -- nm - zork Aug 28, 10:31
      - Yeah, I'd think that's wrong. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:30 2
        
        I'm not saying it's right; I'm just saying it's a better analogy. -- nm - mara Aug 28, 10:32 1
        
        you're wrong, here. -- nm - zork Aug 28, 10:33
      - Still not ok. -- nm - Jim Aug 28, 10:30
      - It's 'as-wee-pay'. -- nm - Nic Cage Aug 28, 10:30
    - This is true. And how old is he? Could get confusing for him. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 28, 10:27 3

        Hey, the Columbine kids were a mere dozen years older. Well within the danger zone. - Dr.Vermin Aug 28, 10:32

  - They could call him "H" and the sign could be "putting on sunglasses" - Beryllium Aug 28, 10:27

- If a player has DeAngelo Williams, do we believe they would want Jonathan Stewart as well? - David Aug 28, 10:12 11
  - I'm not sure I believe anyone would want Stewart. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 28, 10:23
  - Stewart. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 28, 10:18 1

      - Stewart - spamlet Aug 28, 10:19
      - I would go Stewart. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 28, 10:18 1
