Awwww, the 'lil Tex is gaining a number today!?! Well, you have yourself a right ol' good time! I'm thinking of getting you a membership for your birthday:

I'm not very good at the "magic number" thing...but can it inflate? Can as of the end of this weekend the magic number be at 30?

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 02:42 PM) Anyone have that meatball picture? Does that work???

I was in the batting cages earlier this year. I smacked the crap out of that thing. I wonder if Ozzie would be interested in my skills. Is that two home runs from Viz???

It's funny, I took the headphones off and stopped listening to the game, and just before I did that I thought to myself..."I bet I miss a home run here". Have we become too predictable?

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 02:36 PM) Offense? Didn't know we had any. Heeellllooooo...Timo??? Remember him???

The whole Bruce thing is funny. It's right down the middle, some claim him the most connected guy in the business, and than half say he knows more about tiddlywinks (which is a fine game in it's own right).

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) I think it's a good time to hit Tex Do you know something we don't???

There's new rules? Heck...I'm not sure I ever read the old ones. I better go do some homework.

THAT WAS CLOSE, HE JUST MISSED IT!!! O.K., I'm pooped of the optimism. I tried it for a little while, and it failed. I'm going to just enjoy these silly Miller Lite commercials now. Miller on Mars. That's funny.

NICE ONE WILLIE!!! COME ON TIMO...DRIVE THEM IN!!!

I agree with Farmer, if he hangs one now, it will get interesting! Lord knows Willie is a powerhouse and notorious for driving the ball longer than Tiger Woods.

ALRIGHT URIBE!!! COME ON WILLIE...DRIVE HIM IN!!!

Everything will be O.K., Marte is warming up now.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 01:42 PM) I don't know if anyone mentioned it, because I ain't scouring 51 pages of BS , but the movie I want to see is Waking Up Dead. http://www.wakingupdeadmovie.com Sounds cool, but I went to the site and I didn't see any zombies. Talk about a HUGE tease.

We might do better with Harold Ramis.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 02:01 PM) This doesn't look like the same team that went into Minny last week and won 2 of 3 And it sure as hell doesn't look like the same team that played the entire first half of the season.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 01:58 PM) Why would we trade for anyone, we have great The team has great bongs???

Remember how hollow the joy felt at the winning the division in 2000 was due to our winning it after a loss? We played like crap, and you could just feel how poorly we were going to be playing in the post. It was cool to get there, but ya just knew. I have that same feeling starting up right now.

Check out Dead Birds and get back to me. I bet ya like it.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) Haha, Dog Soldiers? Isn't that the cheap Scifi movie about werewolves in Scotland? Man...it's a damn shame that Sci-Fi picked that damn film up! EVERYBODY thinks it is a Sci-Fi original! It's was only picked up by them, but the film was made in Scotland and is NOT a low budget cheapo film. It has some great FX (NONE of which are CGI), great acting, and is commonly regarded as one of the best Werewolf flicks made. But people see it on Sci-Fi and instantly turn there mind into accepting it for a cheesy film and ignore the good qualities to it. Much the same way as movies like The Exorcist and the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre get laughs from theaters full of people nowdays. Same way as films like the new Gamera series gets laughs from people only going in hoping to see cheesy giant turtle action, and ignoring the brilliant FX work and great acting and script in the film. Same was as people seeing a "zipper" on a Godzilla costume (a feature that has NEVER existed on a Godzilla costume...or a costume used in Creature From The Black Lagoon which is anothet film that gets the "zipper" accusation all of the time). If you have seen Dog Soldiers but only saw it as a Sci-Fi channel flick, check it out again on DVD and get it out of your head that it is a Sci-Fi film. If you have not seen it due to it being on Sci-Fi, rent it and watch it. My wife HATES Horror films (a funny thing as to how much she hates them considering our first date was a viewing of the original Dawn Of The Dead and I have written more than my fair share of reviews and articles for Horror magazines and websites), but she loved Dog Soldiers. Also give Below a shot, if you haven't yet. Sorry about the rant, but not 15 minutes ago I just got done going through this Sci-Fi channel thing on another board! LOL!!!

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 11:12 AM) Well, not just gore, but a good scary movie should probably have a part in it that makes you wanna look away. The Others was pretty good, definitely better than most of the stuff today. Seriously check out that film I posted on the other page called Dead Birds. It's probably the exact mix you are looking for, and it is loved by seasoned Horror freaks. Also check out Dog Soldiers if you haven't yet.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) PG-13, I think. Can't be too good. The Others was PG-13 and that was pretty damn effective. Are we after GORE or are we after SCARES? Huge difference, and scares can be acheived with a "safe" rating. But if you want gore, go out and get ahold of Cannibal Holocaust. That should satisfy your thirst for a good amount of time.

You want a creepy ass flick? I HIGHLY recommend:
