    Orphan Black (BBC)

    This is probably the best new show I've seen in awhile. The lead actress is amazing. Kept thinking I'd OD on sci-fi, but this one is a step above. Very good.

    Continuum

    I was 'meh' about this show but had nothing better to do. Ended up buying Season 2. It's fun. Not amazing, but fun.

    Chad Qualls Sighting

    That was a pretty filthy slider, even if the location was adventurous.

    ASU and UofA All Time Great Players; Rankings

    It covers the Modern Era (Post-WWII) to present. In my opinion: Iowa's best: Alex Karras, Andre Tippett, Reggie Roby, Bob Sanders Syracuse: Jim Brown, Floyd Little, Ernie Davis, Larry Csonka, Donovan McNabb (Syracuse's list is as about as good as anyone's, I don't care that their best days...

    Disney's Planes

    More likely, Disney is smart enough to not attach Pixar's name to it so as not to devalue the high esteem the company's name brings. Disney has be unashamed pushing crap for three decades. They can take it. They don't need Pixar to sell the movie, because it will make a lot of money without it...

    ASU and UofA All Time Great Players; Rankings

    ASU is tied with Florida State at No. 25 all-time for producing NFL players, each producing 225. ASU has 4 players in the HoF. FSU has 2. FWIW, Iowa is No. 23 with 235 and Syracuse is tied with Auburn for No. 24 with 228. Syracuse has produced 6 HoF members. Arizona is not on the list. Big...

    Connor Brewer Transfers to Arizona

    And I'm not sure Brewer is slow. He's just not a runner. If the defensive end crashes on the read-option, Brewer can get 5 positive yards before meeting a safety.

    Sounds like we're playing footsie with a few of our Germericans, and Klinsman is winning that tug of war. I wonder if the payoff will be worth it.

    ASU and UofA All Time Great Players; Rankings

    I think both classes will end up hinging on players who may or may not have challenges qualifying. At least at the top end of things. The ping-pong match going on with Natrell Curtis is a good example of two in-state programs having to decide how badly they want a headache just to say they...

    Arizona Trade Rumors

    Trahan is never going to replace Montero at catcher. I'm pretty sure if it. But he will probably bring his mighty bat to some corner position in the not-so-distant future. You can't trade him now.

    ASU and UofA All Time Great Players; Rankings

    If you only follow catscratchfever.com or whatever, I can see how you might come to this conclusion. It's not true, but you're welcome to the delusion. I do agree both programs are moving upwards.

    Congrats. This was a really good pick up.

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    Portland has been building for a championship for 20 years. I do not care for the Portland championship-building model.

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    The thought of Amare playing with MJ is kind of comical to me. MJ: Amare, move your butt over here! Amare: You want to run the pick-and-roll? MJ: No -- you're in my way!

    ASU and UofA All Time Great Players; Rankings

    Yeah. As an ASU fan, we do brag about some fairly minor players in the grand scheme, but Mao's criticism sounded slightly insincere. I'll admit that outside of Tempe and Pittsburgh, there are at least two generations of football fans that do not know that Mark Malone played football before his...

    No, no, no. The Killer List is topped by Loren Wade.

    Disney's Planes

    Disney and Stephen King. Before they are done, they will have animated every inanimate thing ever. Coming in 2016: Disney's Office Space ... the Red Stapler in a coming of age story, as he battles the Evil Printer and the Monday Virus.

    Shea's quick goal gives US 1-0 victory over Panama (Yahoo! Sports)

    Way to steal Donovan's thunder, Shea, you cherry picker.

    Phew! Edit: I hope they fired the barber that took the weedwhacker to Shea's head.

    Kendall Marshall on the trade block

    I asked if Marshall was a locker room liability. Was told he's not one. Not yet. Suns are openly marketing him to buyers, but will find a way for him to contribute if they don't find a taker. Teams that want him shouldn't expect to get him for free.

    JOBS

    None of his ideas were original, but he always saw the bigger picture. Jobs had a vision for the iPhone and iPad in the mid-80s. He was never alone in his vision, but he definitely was the leading pioneer in what we've come to understand as consumer electronics. He never saw the computer as a...

    Companies that "lie" to investors and get away with it

    What's really frustrating is Zynga had the keys to the money printing machine. They just didn't have the ambition to follow through. Their games were all carrot-and-stick, no actual emotional payoff. People got tired and gave up -- and also got wise to it. Other Facebook/SM gaming companies have...

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    1) Not being sarcastic 2) Like I said, I used to love Granger's game. If healthy, he's capable of being a valuable player. I'm OK with him not being part of this trade. 3) Green's minutes were cut by 7 minutes a game last year. He had a 15+ per with the Nets when he was getting 25 minutes...

    Under The Dome (CBS)

    I'd like to think this might encourage networks to take more chances on sci-fi during the summer and maybe they'd stumble into something smarter than they imagined. That's how it started for a couple of cable channels that put out some great content now.

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    Wow. Green isn't a passer or a ball handler, but as a wing, he can shoot and defend (I know this is not highly known, but just look at his defensive efficiency stats -- he's improved every team he's played on, including the Nets by 6 fewer points per 100). He's the right size for a small...
