Was about to post the same thing. And it was who he was, not what he did off the field. A lot of guys juiced and were allowed to come back. Nobody wanted the stigma of the era's scapegoat. He was the scapegoat because he was the best. If ManRam had broken the HR record it would have been...

If you don't want to carry a bigger screen around that's one thing, but the SP3 is actually lighter than the SP1 and 2. Still, I'm guessing they won't totally scrap the smaller form factor cause there are plenty of others who prefer it.

Civ 1 on my Amiga 500, easily. I got two games for Christmas that year (very early 90's), the other being Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. I was very much into Lucas Arts adventures at the time, and was hyped about getting that one. I figured I try out Civ first (which I wasn't too...

Don't care how dumb the mobs are. Will they drop cloth caps?

Yeah thanks, picked it up too. Have not played Civ5 since like a month or two after it released. Time to see how much more playable the expansions have made it, if only as a distraction until Civ Beyond Earth releases.

They should just go all out with classes and combat in landmark. That way the landmark "beta" doubles even more as an EQN alpha and when EQN is finally ready for beta it should be more polished. It would also attract more players to Landmark and build more hype for EQN when it eventually...

Not at all surprised, I had assumed they were putting most of their efforts into Landmark. I just hope we get to see a lot of the stuff they showed in Landmark sooner rather than later. Throw DE's and some of that combat into the world and I may start playing it again.

I never knew the mountain was a cleric.

Eh, the expectations won't be quite as high though as they were for Lebron's previous big 3. That team brought together 3 players who consistently led their teams to the playoffs pretty much by themselves. This unites Lebron with two guys who have never made the playoffs. Granted, Love could...

Anand very recently did some Surface Pro 3 battery tests and compares the results to those of the older surfaces: AnandTech | Microsofts Surface Pro 3: Core i3 vs. Core i5 Battery Life In the laptop battery tests they are pretty ho hum. Pro 2 and Pro 3 have significant battery life boosts...

It'd be close and might involved dumping one or two contracts aside from Lee, but they could probably find a way to get it done, especially if the cap goes up another few mill. It'd hinge on not re-signing Klay until they signed Love. Their 3 core contracts of Curry+Bogut+Iguodala would only...

Wiggins value isn't going to drop that much from 3 months in the league. Dude has all the athletic ability in the world, is only 19 years old, and is going to be playing with a couple guys who are going to be dominating the ball a ton. What he shows in his first few months in the league is not...

Why do you think they aren't false rumors? If GS were willing to deal Thompson I think a deal would have gotten done. Of course they're not going to blurt out that they're looking to trade Thompson, but from everything I've heard they had a long dialogue about it and decided they just don't...

I think if you put a gun to Cleveland's head and said Wiggins for Love today or never, they'd probably do it. Thing is, they have no reason to rush into a deal on that. If they play up to the trade deadline as is and Love still hasn't been dealt, at the worst a Wiggins for Love deal is...

The Cavs are not getting Love for Bennet and a couple firsts (especially since with Bosh's re-signing, the Miami 1st that Cleveland has may not be all that great). There are other teams still out there in the mix who have already offered more. It'll be interesting to see exactly what happens...

This is kind of my thinking as well. It's a pretty tough decision because Love definitely gives them a better chance to win next year. However, they're going to be near the top of favorites regardless of whether or not they trade for Love. If they do trade for Love, they will be THE favorite...

Anybody's front office would look smart if they'd gotten 3 #1's in the past four years. Lebron doesn't consider the move if he weren't from Cleveland, and doesn't do it without Kyrie and Wiggins there (although there is some speculation about turning Wiggins into Love, sounds like it wouldn't...

Ppl should forever know Wilt for his 20,000. And I don't mean rebounds.

I actually hope Lebron leaves Miami. F the Heat and F Wade. Lebron already left his hometown to join two other top ten players in the league, nobody should think any less of him now if he leaves Miami. In my eyes, he did the damage the first time; if he does it again how does it make him...

There were some reports already last week that Wade is willing to renegotiate at a discount. Haven't heard much on it since though.

I probably haven't seen Love play enough the last 2-3 years to really appreciate how good he is now. I think I have a pretty good idea, but it's still tough to gauge exactly how good he'd be on a better team. I feel like his scoring might be a little inflated right now from playing on a team...

I agree there's a lot of posturing going on and the deal can't be totally dead, but nah, it wouldn't kill me. I've been through many years of incompetent leadership with the Warriors (and suffered more misery than Wolves fans), but for a change they have a pretty solid management team in place...

Nothing to do with when it has or hasn't happen previously and everything to do with how historically bad the Eastern Conference has been over that span. That's what happens when a few of the best players in an already weak conference all band up together and join one team. If the Heat had...

No, I didn't. I'm just throwing random posts out here... Seriously, what's your point? Did I say anything about what the Spurs did? I'm talking about what Miami didn't do. When they put that team together 4 years ago, they were instantly the favorites in the next 4-5 finals or so, and...

Why would anybody trade out of the top 3 in this draft? Utah would have to package either Hayward, Kanter, or Favors (or future 1sts) with their own pick to move up and I'm still not sure anybody would take that. The chance to grab a star is too much for any of those teams to pass up.

It's a feat. I wouldn't say doing it in that conference is all that remarkable, especially given the players they've had. What they've done has not met a lot of expectations of what they could do since those 3 guys were put together.

Miami's will is broken and it's Michael Beasly time.

Sure. But also, it'd feel a lot sweeter to win a title without him than with him. As soon as Lebron moves to your team you know you're going to get hundreds of thousands of "Lebron" fans like Gaige who suddenly love your team even though they don't know a GD thing about it's history other than...

Lol Slava Medvedenko. Chalmers has been pretty bad, but even if he scores a few baskets they lose. Miami lost that game on the defensive end, plain and simple. It's on the whole team. Lebron and Wade combining for 12 turnovers sure didn't help either. I thought it was amazing Bosh only...

What's that have to do with computers being in binary though. Like you say, modulation schemes just carry data, it's not like you can do calculations with information in that form. In the end the symbols have to be demodulated back into 0's and 1's in order for the data to be used for anything.

If you're just buying a tablet for basic reading / videos /browsing etc. and want something cheap, it's hard to beat that Kindle Fire HD deal for $110.

Very much doubt it has anything to do with his conditioning. I'd guess it's cause the guy is pushing the limits of what a person that size can do. Nobody 6'8 260 has ever played any sport the way Lebron does with the continuous power and speed he plays with. The D the Heat were playing...

I love how you classify Butler as having "two full seasons of very productive play under his belt" then turn around and say Barnes will "never be a productive player." As a 20 year old rookie the guy played 38 MPG in two playoff series and averaged 16 pts 6 rebs. Is that not being a productive...

I'm not saying the deal the Warriors have on the table (or what most are guessing is on the table) is better, I'm saying if they offered Klay in addition it would definitely be. I don't claim to know anything about Mirotic. He looks like another big slow Euro with some shooting ability and...

Warriors can as they have as many if not more have assets than Chicago. And from everything I've heard the Warriors are not offering Klay Thompson along with Barnes and Lee. They do not want to trade Thompson and I don't think they'd trade both Barnes and Thompson. The Wolves are dealing...

Wow, so Kevin Love stays in Minny?? Grats Wolves fans! One of my favorite parts was Don Nelson coming back to coach at age 82. And the player who was getting paid 0$.

Pretty weak, not gif-worthy.

So I've just gradually been picking up parts over the last couple months as I saw deals and this is what I ended up with. Most of these deals are no longer available, it's just an example of the type of savings one can get by waiting for good deals to come around: i5 4670k$190 from Amazon...

It's not just you, but as time has gone by I've come to appreciate the Spurs more and more. They are a team that does things the right way in a league full of selfish players. No flashy dunks or players that try to go into God mode, but they play beautiful ball.
