Getting it in the hole. Basketball 2K15-2K16
Gotta give Lebron credit for the last two games as well. He has just been unreal. Kyrie was lights out in game 5, but Lebron has been shooting and defending at another level. It's amazing how he doesn't bite on the first move around the rim, he's got great patience. He deserves the Finals MVP win or lose at the end of game 7.

Mexico making progress
Just try to look at things objectively, that's all. Do you really believe that? You took this quote: But cut out the rest of the paragraph: It's ok to be a pessimist, I'm not trying to change your nature. But you should be aware that you are not being objective. I'm clearly not being objective, I am focusing on the positives here. You are focusing on the negatives. Again, that is totally your right, but don't try and sell it as something else.

MLB 2016 - Even Year Magic
Well he is going to hit 3,000 pretty soon, which is basically the MLB benchmark for the HoF. I actually see that as a bigger deal. It is awesome that he basically had a big career in two different countries, but it is hard to compare the leagues, and Pete Rose is still going to be the MLB hit leader.

mass shooting in orlando
I hate the politicizing of this stuff, but I do disagree with us just throwing the blame on ISIS. They may be the easiest scapegoat, they may jump at the chance to take credit for this stuff, but it would seem to be a good deal more complicated than him just being radicalized. It would be comforting if it really just an ISIS attack, because then we'd have a clear target. You'd also probably have a trail to follow of people that pushed him towards radicalization, you might have a terrorist cell. Instead we have stories of mental illness and questions about his own sexuality. We have missed opportunities to stop this, from the FBI to his wife. How do we prevent these types of tragedies in the future? What can we learn from this? I mean, think about the safeguards he got around: Want the FBI to be aggressive about investigating suspicious people? They interviewed him three times! Want to have good guys with guns in the area? He exchanged fire with security, an off duty police officer. Much like with Columbine, I'd say the biggest thing we will be able to do about this is change the way law enforcement responds to these situations and the way clubs handle security.

WarCraft movie is getting slaughtered by critics
Have you not paid attention to movie budgets before? It was more of setup question that I used to poke fun of the bad acting and set design. The whole quote being:

US Election 2016, part II
That's really not good news. We REALLY need to prevent Hillary from being president. She's actually worse than Obama. This is the last thing we need. Why do you assume Gary Johnson is only pulling votes away from Trump? I mean, Trump has massive unfavorable numbers, but Clinton isn't exactly appealing to all democrats either. Having a visible and viable 3rd party candidate is going to create waves for both candidates.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
ESO is the best Elder Scrolls game since Daggerfall. Now that they've got thievery and the Dark Brotherhood, it's solid gold. They also have been on the consoles for less than a year, so they are still trying to build up that audience.

WarCraft movie is getting slaughtered by critics
So looking at the numbers, Warcraft cost 160 million to make (wth) and is going to get nowhere near that domestically, but make a ton in China and turn a profit. How did they spend that much money? The actors clearly weren't getting much of that, the only big name was Glenn Close, and she had a small cameo. Some fo the sets looked like they were out of a ren faire. I assume it was all special effects, yikes. Would a sequel still cost that much to make?

MLB 2016 - Even Year Magic
I like some of those ideas. My best experiences in the ballpark are often not in the seats. Sitting on the grass at the Memphis Redbirds game was fantastic, and having the kids run around the bases at the mini-field they set up behind the bleachers at the Giants games is great.
