**Official Yankees vs. Angels Thread**
So, ESPN making it sound like the Yankees are the first team ever to imply the 3 man rotation in the playoffs. Would you want Chad Gaudin pitching Game 4?

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Oct 14, 2009 -> 01:40 PM) Just saw this I'm not old enough to remember the earlier years of his career, but I thought he was great as part of the Headshrinkers gang alongside Afa the Wild Samoan. Wow, you are really young.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 07:28 PM) Huh, just found out that Diamond Taylor transferred to SIU. Hopefully he can prevent himself from relieving other people of their things, and concentrate on basketball. Read that last week. Hoping his thing at Wisc was an isolated incident. He's a player.

Obamistan
I saw this on Fox News. Made it seem like he is trying to doing it all sneaky. No matter who was president, we'd be sending more over there. You can't take troops out as of yet. Not stable enough.

Your top 5 Events...
QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 12:48 PM) I think the atomic bombs rate higher than Columbine. Like I said, in no particular order.

Your top 5 Events...
I was tempted to put this in Filibuster but hope it won't have to be moved there. If Mods think it belongs there, I understand. What are 5 events that happened in our history that effected/changed the world/country? We are all of different ages so it may vary. No particular order... 1. 9/11: Since Pearl Harbor, the first attack inside our country from another country/foriegners. Seems like an event that also brought the country together for the first time in a long time. 2. Pearl Harbor: Brought the US into World War 2, as a result, D-Day and Nagasaki/Hiroshima, which could be 2 seperate choices. 3. JFK Assasination: I was born in 79 but seemed like an event that could of had a hand in counter culture. Would we of stayed in Vietnam? Just from reading things, you wonder how different things would of been if JFK lived and served his terms. 4. The signing of the Declaration of Independance, duh. 5. Columbine Shooting...People will disagree with me. I was in college at the time and remember the aftermath. In my eyes, we were living of fear of everything. Y2K was shoved down our throats. High Schools and colleges weren't safe anymore. Metal detectors in schools. We still see incidents today like this. Never remember hearing of school shooting before Columbine in 99.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 11:14 AM) I learned a lot too. It really is interesting how quickly the conspiracy stuff actually started. One question I have is, did they ever try and get finger prints off the rifle found by the window? Or was that technology not available yet? It was odd that they find the rifle and just grab it with no gloves and carry it around like its a cane or something.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 08:41 AM) Caught most of part 2 yesterday. Great stuff. I'll be sure to check out the entirety of this special. Just watched Part 2. I was always facinated by this whole thig and back in high school, read a bunch of stuff. There is stuff in Part 2 that I didn't know about. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 09:23 PM) I never knew that the first person to air the Zapruder Film on television was Geraldo Rivera. Me neither. How old is that guy?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2009 -> 09:33 PM) The footage is just incredible. Listening to the reports and the reactions as it happened, with no narration or modern thought really makes it feel different. Any clue when Part 2 runs or was that both parts last night? Nevermind, looked it up. It's this Sat.

Nobody laughed when Larry told Sammy to "Shut the f*ck up" while singing in the show. Not too mention that Sammy has grown into a little cutie...just saying.

On "Curb" tonight, there was a moment I live every once in awhile at work. Stranger walks by Larry and says "smile" and he tells her to mind her own business. That happens to me all the time at work when I am minding my own business and I usually just throw a fake chuckle out there so they leave me alone.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) For anyone who isn't watching football or baseball, the History Channel is running a show called JFK, Three Shots that Changed America. They are using all kinds of original footage and audio, which is really impressive. I have never seen most of this stuff before. Hmmm, hope they replay it. Would set the DVR Yup, re-running at midnight. Thanks
