The Critic

Any poll that mis-spells Grinch does not deserve my vote.

Thome would win by forfeit - none of the others could bring themselves to hit him because he's too nice a guy. After the fight, Jim would describe his victory as "neat".

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 25, 2007 -> 02:30 PM) If you really cared you would have froze your ass off at Black Friday sales and brought home twice as much stuff. But I guess underprivileged kids don't deserve your best efforts. Oops, sorry, I thought you were John Edwards or Al Gore. HOW DARE YOU!!!! I WAS THERE IN SPIRIT!!! I recall now that while I was eating breakfast I did think "Oh, they're probably almost done shopping now. That's such a nice thing we're doing...."

Went to Milwaukee last night for Bucks vs. Mavericks. Great game - they traded the lead a bunch of times, neither team being able to pull away, with Milwaukee ultimately taking the 97-95 win. Not a sellout crowd, but a nice crowd - probably 15 or 16,000. My daughter had a lot of fun for the first half, then fell asleep in the 3rd quarter. How that kid sleeps through all that noise at sporting events, I just don't know! LOL

I'm going to miss tonight's game - I'm heading to Milwaukee to see the Bucks play. Hopefully the non-flu-ridden Hawks can take down the Oilers! RED RISING!!! GO HAWKS!!!!!

Tickets went on sale today for the final Ministry tour ever. The last show of the tour will be at House Of Blues Chicago, May 8, 2008. Still trying to decide if I want to go - I like Ministry, but maybe not enough to see them.

I don't do Black Friday, but my wife and her Mom picked up a bunch of stuff for the Secret Santa thing we're doing for an underprivileged family. They got toys for the son, gifts for the Mom and Dad, clothes for all three, plus food and sundries, all for under 150 bucks.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Nov 23, 2007 -> 07:59 AM) Matt Serra herniated discs in his back and is out of the fight against Hughes in December. No report yet on whether Hughes will stay on card against a new opponent. http://www.sherdog.com/news/news.asp?n_id=10087 Bummer. I like Serra, and I wanted him to wipe the smirk off Hughes' face.

QUOTE(MurcieOne @ Nov 22, 2007 -> 10:19 PM) 10 on the year... i think sharp has 4? 5 now for Sharp. 4 game-winners, too. Impressive, indeed.

Not a particularly well-played game, but a nice win to get, especially on the road. Enjoy it, and come out better against the Oil on Saturday!!

ANOTHER short-hander for Sharp!!! Unreal!!!! 2-1 Hawks!!
