    Justice for Zimmerman

    Rumor is he's considering law school now to assist others who have been wrongly accused of crimes.

    Pacific Rim

    The plot goes exactly where you expect it to at every turn. Nothing that happened was a surprise at all. Again though, if you loved the trailer when you saw it, you'll probably love the movie. It's definitely giant robots fighting giant aliens.

    They should have blocked Facebook and Twitter for 48 hours after the verdict was reached if they wanted rioting.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    All completely fair points. Also I never said I wasn't concerned with the differences in general, just that I wasn't concerned with your order of importance when the question I asked was only regarding how likely you thought all outcomes that would result in someone dying without the presence...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Well I wasn't worried about which order you were concerned about, just whether or not you think Zimmerman possessing a gun or not affected the likelihood of both of them surviving versus not. Just a gut feeling on whatever percentage of each possibility you laid out would have of happening in...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Do you think him having a gun versus not significantly changes the chance that they both live through the encounter?

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Are you saying you concede the point that if Zimmerman hadn't had a gun, no one would have died, or merely that is far more likely that no one would have died?

    Pacific Rim

    I'm not surprised GU2 might beat it out. The first one made money somehow too. That said, it's not like this really was the best movie of the summer or anything either. It's basically what you expect (or seemed that way to me at least). Probably could have had more action and less weak story...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    I'm glad I didn't know anything about this case or the trial. Sounds like some overzealous yahoo with a gun did something stupid to spark a situation, then decided he needed to use his weapon. I'm betting if one person hadn't been carrying a gun that day nobody would have died. There should...

    Pacific Rim

    As opposed to making a movie about giant aliens coming through a rift in the Pacific Ocean and the weapons we build to fight them are giant robots that must be piloted by 2 people? No, the 30 something Asian playing a younger girl didn't make me bat an eyelash. Movie gave you exactly what...

    Yeah I know they made a lot of good changes to the divisions (as a Caps fan, I'm glad to have almost the old Patrick Division back with a few changes), but the Florida teams seemed to get the short end of the stick in the deal.

    Bruins extend Bergeron for 8 years, at $6.5 per. Only way that ever is a bad deal is if his health doesn't hold up (which is a concern). But from pure dollars for what he brings, it's an awesome deal.

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    In the NFC North's defense (as far as 3 teams going to the playoffs goes), they did have 3 teams with 10+ wins last year, the Bears were just a late blown lead against Seattle and the correct call on the Fail Mary from getting in. Personally I picked it last year, only I had the Vikings and the...

    If there is one thing that last few years have shown is that you shouldn't spend a lot on the goaltender position. Teams have been getting it done with cheaper than elite goaltending for awhile now. Also Caps re-sign Karl Alzner to a 4 year, $2.8 million per year deal. I'm amazed it wasn't...

    Honestly I feel like I'm going to go see it, get a lot of over the top action with some crazy big destruction between monsters and giant robots...and while I'll likely enjoy it for what it is, in the end I'm betting I still think about this movie and make that face I made when I first heard the...

    I can agree with all this, but it's also a fact he was misused quite a bit under Carlyle. His boxcars suffered a little, but it wasn't a guy who isn't still a good player. I don't think this outburst is the only reason he hasn't been signed yet. Vinny becoming available, Ribeiro, Weiss, and...

    NHL GM's throwing around the crazy money today. You'd never know they bitched for a lockout or that the cap was going down this year with some of the money some of these guys are getting thrown at them. Borderline 3rd/4th line player? You can get close to $2 million and term. Borderline...

    Not that Streit/Timonen/Hartnell don't already sort of fill that role. Hell Pronger too if he spends any time around the team still. They have some good young talent, but scoring wasn't their problem last year, and after acquiring Vinny, scoring still isn't their problem going forward.

    The rumor was he wanted a deal that would take him into retirement. He's only 33 but has been in the league for 15 years. With that much mileage I'm not surprised he wanted to cash in one more time. Although like you I'm surprised it's with Philly. Maybe none of the other teams would offer...

    Vinny to the Flyers for 5 years at $4.5 per. I can't figure out all their little cap issues offhand, but looks pretty tight and with only 1 goalie signed (and it's Steve Mason at that). Caps should immediately offer Neuvirth and some sweeteners for Coutourier.
