NY Daily News says a deal with Thibideau is near. Guess I should learn to spell his name right.

Let a real man start the game thread and get this going. Before the season, I would of thought Peavy vs. Talbot would be in our advantage. Sigh

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 01:31 AM) I think he meant..... Yes. In a rhetorical way. Ha

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 09:32 PM) John Wooden has died at age 99. He was sure getting around pretty well at his age. Lived a full life. Sounds like he went peacefully. We should all be so lucky.

How you doin?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 04:56 PM) Parts were great, parts were awful. WTF is Michael Douglas of all people telling me how revolutionaries worked hard and how that's the American spirit? They really dropped the ball not keeping those "interviews" within the academic world, with you know, people who know wtf they are talking about. Excited this summer for: cont'd excellence from Breaking Bad (best show on TV right now IMO) Its Always Sunny Mad Men Rubicon (looks very cool and AMC has become the 2nd coming of the HBO drama) Louie DVR'ing: True Blood (totally lame I know, but whatever, lots of T&A) Last Comic Standing (w/ the dude from the Office, should be good) Wipeout (good time waster) My Boys (again, totally lame, but set in Chicago) I'vae had season 1 of Breaking Bad queued up On Netflix for a few weeks and it keeps saying LONG WAIT. Love Mad Men as well. With you on True Blood. I don't particularly get into it but I watch it.

I saw the trailer that CBS presented at some conference. It was rather disappointing. Though Shatner would be more Archie Bunker than Tim Allen.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 01:08 PM) I had my heart set on Buster O'Houlihan I'll file the paperwork for that name for you.

All the regulars in this thread, you will know be given names so Soxtalk can copyright them and make money off you. T R U, you are now Alvin Hendricks. MHizzle, you are now Gary Becker. The Critic, you are now Lloyd Savage. KyYle, you are now Thomas Garrity. And I am now King Awesome. That is all.

I like the mom holding her kid in the back smiling.

QUOTE (juddling @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 02:23 AM) Am i missing something???? I don't find Russell Brand funny in the slightest. I hope i'm not the only one. Thats how I feel about Jonah Hill

Please don't try to remove a Mexican wrestlers mask.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 09:53 PM) That's weak. If you care enough to post about his impression, you should be somewhere close to his name. I was closer to the actually spelling of Ludicrous instead of the ebonics version.

I like. ---- The New York Post is reporting that Tom Thibodeau has turned down an offer to coach the New Orleans Hornets and is now the front runner to coach the Chicago Bulls. Thibodeau, who reportedly has trouble making decisions, was beat out for the Bulls' job by Vinny Del Negro last time around, but is said to be nearly a lock for the job this time. Avery Johnson is now the front runner to take the Nets' coaching job, while Monty Williams should take over in New Orleans in the near future.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 09:00 PM) Man, we make Matt Treanor look amazing. Let's trade for him and sign him to an extension.

Can't wait to go to my first game tomorrow.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:41 PM) Cowley tweet: I assume he's calling Hawk "Cabana Boy" I doubt many Sox fans think we have a shot. Cowley needs to stop acting like he is the voice of reason. We aren't an idiotic fan base. Don't treat us like one.

Saw a generic Rescue Me promo on FX today with Derek Jeter. Kind of odd.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:31 PM) I really wish the Braves were buyers right now. Why aren't they?

You can't let that puck squeak through like that.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:22 PM) Does any contender have a really s***ty player at catcher? AJ > Napoli I know LA is struggling but they won't give up in that division.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:12 PM) LeSelfish hasn't won for a reason. If I were a Bulls fan (YESSSSSSS, Hawks score!!!) I would take anyone besides LeSelfish. How is he selfish? I would say he is almost too unselfish at times on the court.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:13 PM) I feel bad for Joyce after watching the replay of that inning. He didnt run off the field after the game like Joe West wouldve done. He stayed there and let the Tiger players scream at him. You maybe the only one who has sympathy for the umpire. Ha

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 08:06 PM) Strasburg Strasburg tickets were going for 2000 bucks on StubHub. Just saying.. Too bad MLB probably won't see any of that.
