Downtime 4/29/2015: We're scheduled to begin moving to new servers at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time on Wednesday, April 29. The forums will be offline for about 30 minutes to an hour. When they come back, we estimate the forums will still be closed for another 5 to 6 hours. This entire process could take up to 12 hours though it's likely to take fewer.

12 hours without HFBoards???

Why not just have us try holding our breath underwater for 12 hours?

I understand their need for server maintenance, what I don't understand is why they wouldnt wait until after the playoffs*.


*NOTE: The subject of the prior sentence is "server maintenance", and is thus no way related to ice hockey.

Orioles game cancelled due to rioting and looting.

Police should come down hard on the looters and other felons.

Absolutely. This is just a complete and utter mess. Some people are just vultures too because there are people who want none of this.

Its a disgrace to burn down your neighborhood and city. Or others.

Looting and other felonies need to be fully prosecuted.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Where is the back up and the national guard? Why is the curfew tomorrow night. Just letting the city burn down tonight because the police is thinned out and leaving certain neighborhoods with no police at all.

You can't expect the good citizens to self police and try and gain control here because these opportunists are finding out where the police aren't and going there and looting.

Times like these (well any time really but times like these in particular) I wish MLK was still around to tell people to stop acting like fools and show them how to protest with a purpose and actually accomplish something constructive.

Agreed. Some people are trying, and there are some people out there trying to protect businesses and preach peace but are getting drowned out by complete fools.

I get why people are angry, but this accomplishes nothing and honestly more then a few are just opportunists trying to get free **** and are taking advantage of a situation.

Edit: Especially let fire fighters do their damn job.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Nope. Only way to fight injustice is with indiscriminate, violent protest and looting! Essentially, fight injustice with injustice! Makes perfect sense! I feel bad for everyone involved that isn't violently rioting or looting.

Especially because apparently its a bunch of *******s driving around messing with people.

These are corner store businesses getting looted and burned down and people who don't want this are having their homes upstairs burnt down.

Complete *******s, and a lot of them look like young punks too.

Or police could just stand a few yards away and LITERALLY watch them start fires, steal private property (including cars), hurl bricks through windows, and throw rocks at them.

Brilliant decision to tell the police to stand down and make no arrests. Cant wait to hear the explanation of that one.

The horrible irony is, that while black America is obviously far better off in 2015 than in 1965, black America has devolved into a worse state in 2015 than in 1965. I'm not so sure MLK jr. could be MLK jr. today.

Do you think that was an order that came from about 40 miles to the South of Baltimore?

I haven't watched the Price is Right much since Drew Carey took over. I was out sick and watched for the first time in years. Yup, Drew Carey still sucks

 

[BenedictGomez]

Funny that the horse named Far Right drew the outside post in a 20 horse field. Only a 5% chance of that.

 

[Jersey Man]

Mayweather or Pacquiao?

I'm rooting for Pacquiao since I have no respect for Mayweather. Just read about his camp has banned Michelle Beadle and Rachel Nichols from the fight...

 

[NJDevs26]

Talk about living up to a rep of being the heel

 

[tr83]

I'm rooting for a KO 30 seconds in to screw over the people who are going to spend $100 on the PPV and the multiple thousands of dollars to see it in person

 

[Richer's Ghost]

I smell old school fishy scoring.

Mayweather wins on decision despite the eye test saying Pacquiao won it hands down.

If anything I'd think it would be the other way around...the only way Mayweather's fighting this guy again is if he loses. And I don't see him losing unless it's a contreversial decision.

 

[JimEIV]

I like fishy.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Anyone got a good stream for this thing?

 

[NJDevs26]

HBO/Showtime/whatever are probably spending millions of dollars hunting down all the illegal internet streams

Can't say I blame 'em with charging $100 a pop, but people wonder why the fight game is dead when every big fight's on pay per view at increasing prices. The NFL isn't putting the Super Bowl on pay-per-view yet (god help us when they do, that'll be another huge moneymaker though), other big sports don't put the biggest events on pay-per-view.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Got one. What a gross attempt to try and defend the crappy stuff Mayweather has done. Still no mention of him keeping reporters who call out his domestic violence out.

I really do hope Pac and mess him up.

 

[NJDevs26]

lol now the fight's supposedly being delayed cause there are issues with the actual pay per view and the providers having technical problems showing it. Can't make this **** up.

And it's good to be Tom Brady...went to the Derby in the afternoon and made it to Vegas in time for the fight
