man I would hate to be a detective/prosecutor. This serial podcast has me confounded, who the heck did it?

I think it is also kinda wrong to drum up painful memories from the victims families past.

I don't know if Adan did or not, but I wouldn't be able to put him away based on the flimsy evidence and witness, so I guess I came to the same conclusion as the narrator.

Haha, I clicked on the last archived page of this forum and found a post making fun of the Knicks from 2008. As much as things change, some things are always the same.

Hey Blazers fans.. I'm plotting on how the Raptors can poach Batum from you guys, so I have a few questions:

1. He's having a really bad year, do you expect him to bounce back for the playoffs?
2. Are you more likely to trade him now that he's in a long slump?
3. Between LMA, Lopez and Matthews expiring this season, and Batum, Dame the next, do you think you'll be able to retain everyone? Who is most expendable?
4. What would you realistically expect back for Batum right now?

Poor Paul Allen (literally, according to the new definition of literally which means "figuratively" ) :lol:

Okay guys. I'm coming down from Canada for the April 4 game against the Pelicans. Now I need to book a room for the night. We usually stay at the Courtyard Marriott Downtown, which is the area we like ( a nice walk to Henry's). But they have raised the rates so I'm looking at options. Anyone have an opinion on the Embassy Suites downtown? It looks to be close to the Marriott.

Any other suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

1.) No
2.) Hell no.
3.) If the front office thinks they can be a championship caliber core..Yes
4.) A Batum clone. Seriously no way we trade him at the deadline. Even though he is struggling this year, when he is healthy/not fatigued from summer after summer of play, he is great for us.

I don't thin k eh can be poached based on what the Raps have.

That was for Nate benching him for Wallace.

You could stay on the east side at the Double Tree. It's right across from the Lloyd Center, is right on the "Max" train line to jump across the river, is within walking distance to the Moda Center (Rose Garden), etc. The rooms aren't bad, there's lots around you (food, shopping, movie theater), it's well within reach of anything in the city with Max (train), etc.

Anyone want to make a flyer for me for a wrestling school I work with?

I just can't stop shaking my head. That this keeps happening is disgusting. What is it now...45 school shootings in the last year??? It's unbelievable

As an outsider looking in (I'm from Australia), what's the general consensus of gun laws in Oregon?

It is literally just unbelievable to us Australians that this keeps happening seemingly every week in the USA (although not to this scale...thankfully) and a large proportion of Americans STILL believe it's emperative to allow everybody to legally possess guns, for the reason of protecting them from other guns.

Before I was born, Australia faced a gun control problem, not dissimilar to the USA currently (although probably not as bad). The government made a huge overhaul on firearm regulation and that was a lifesaver. Literally.

R.I.P those who tragically lost their lives.

I know it's been a while now but I still absolutely hate the "new" format of RealGM. It bothers me so much that weeks-old stories stay on the splash page, while any NEW stories you have to literally go digging around for after scrolling down.

They have the site backwards...it's currently setup for a very casual fan/user (maybe checking in once every 10 days or so) when it's really mostly used by daily fans/users. Pretty lame.
