That was an incredible rush for that goal

I love World Cup flopping. "OMG OMG!! HE HIT MY PADDED ANKLE! IT HURTS SOOOO MUCH! oh he got a yellow card, I'm ok now."

The Motorola Droid X is being announced today at a press conference in NYC. I believe CNBC is covering the event... I'm not sure if it will be live coverage or not.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jun 22, 2010 -> 03:04 PM) I dated a girl that was 4'11 and not sure prob 100 pounds maybe a little more and Im 6'3... it was a little weird I guess lol. My wife is 5'3". i'm 6'3". It's still awkward to me and we've been married 5 years. I always joke we need to stretch her out to about 5'8" and she'd be perfect.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jun 22, 2010 -> 07:52 PM) I think the more important question is if they are wsox fans, thats always the most important question when it comes to meeting anyone. I would think "are they legal" is the bigger question.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) Toews is going to be on the cover of NHL 11. Kane, now Toews. It's a first in EA sports history to have two guys on the same team on the cover in back to back years. :headbang

I am a bit picky about Podcast presentation quality, so here is a list that have made my cut and that I listen to. You can decide if any of these apply to you: Technology: GDGT Weekly HDTV and Home Theater Podcast The Mac Observer's Mac Geek Gab This Week In Tech MacBreak Weekly This Week in Google Entertainment: The Jay and Jack Show (founders of the LOST Podcast with Jay and Jack) Pottercast (the production quality is pretty bad, but I listen to it because my wife loves it) Inside The Magic (Disney news and reviews)

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 01:17 PM) Very true, but the power and the walks are still there. I think, looking at his stats, the difference between him being useful and useless is going to be whether he's a 25 HR guy in the big leagues or a 40+ home run guy. With his strikeout rate, if he's hitting 40+ home runs, he's still taking walks and has a high OPS, so he's basically the catching version of Mark Reynolds, and his HR will carry his batting average. If he's only hitting 20-25 home runs, he's striking out so much that he'll be hitting in the low .200's and he'll look like Nick Swisher did when he was with us. those are my thoughts as well. ok, now back to Sale....

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 12:55 PM) He spent the month of May tinkering with his swing and hit .122 in May. In April, he hit .323 with a 1.045 OPS. In June, he's hitting .234 with a .929 OPS. ahh ok. that June number isnt too hot though

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 08:15 AM) Arguing over a pitchers arm motion is pointless because throwing a baseball is not a regular body motion. So really any pitcher could be gone in five years. Every human is different when it comes to durability. So, in the end, it's always a guess.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 10:38 PM) This is quite exciting. Viciedo, Hudson, Flowers, and now Sale all on the cusp of the Majors. IMO, Flowers is only on the cusp of flameout. 73Ks in 54 games and batting .215 in AAA

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 08:21 AM) Wow, Portugal taking it hard to North Korea, up 7-0. I hope Kim Jong Il takes it easy on these guys when they get home, some of them might end up missing after this result. 1) I guess the invisible phone wasnt working 2) On a more serious note: I wonder how this game was reported in NK. My guess is they won.

QUOTE (drowninginflame @ Jun 19, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) For two weekends in a row I've had to sit and watch both of their weekend series games while I watch the White Sox on the computer. Stupid national appeal. ratings is why Fox and ESPN continue to pick the Yanks and BoSox. Simple as that

I thought I would try something a little different. Often we have threads dedicated to hot people, but how about this... In your opinion, what is the sexiest name of a person. Mine is Monica.

wow and for clarification:

OMG that was horrible call. The guy had his whole foot on the bag.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 19, 2010 -> 01:14 AM) Of course, all the Journalism schools I looked at recently require using Macs. >. See, I dont think the laptops and even the iMacs are TOO over priced. But they are trying so hard to make everything as small as possible that they are making the MacMini overpriced for a desktop. It's basically a laptop with it's monitor, keyboard, and mouse (trackpad) cutoff. Laptop components are more expensive than desktop.
