QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 01:58 AM) I ask this again ... why do some of you care about Lastings Milledge so much? The guy is a nobody. Maybe Buehrle and Paulie told Ozzie to drop the guy after his early-season butcher jobs in the OF. Lastings wasn't the answer. Now if/when we dump Teahen I'll be even happier. I think it's a matter of how well he played in the spring and earned a spot on the team. Now suddenly he's gone, and one would think that there's more to it than his lack of good play in the field. I personally don't see how Lillibridge offers more to the team...except on defense, and maybe that's the reason, but I have my doubts. Milledge has been a guy that has a ton of talent/potential, but due to his behavior in years past hasn't become the player he could have. Now it seems like he's failed on another team, whether it be because of bad defense or bad behavior. It's too bad.

EFJ?

I wish I could have seen Jackson pitch. Sounds like he was in rare form. Or, maybe that's going to his form for the season?

I would think there is probably more to the story. He was pretty brutal in the field, but he's a better hitter than Lillibridge.

Quentin looks like a man possessed. I know it's early, but he's showing signs of 2008 TCQ...maybe even better .

What will Ozzie do to fill the hole? Quentin to DH and Milledge to the OF? Or Konerko to DH and Teahen to 1B (shudder)?

Missing 5 days doesn't sound too bad. So, no DL I assume?

In typical gamethread fashion for me, I will now insult the other team/pitcher. While also offering a picture of an attractive female. You're welcome. Thank you for the picture.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Apr 4, 2011 -> 11:19 PM) Maybe I'll have the watch the 2nd episode of The Killing if you guys think it was as good as you say. I watched the second episode last night, and I still think it's one of the best shows on TV. And it's easily one of the best new shows in a long time. Very character driven and atmospheric without being slow. It will be interesting to see if they can retain it for the entire season, since the season revolves around one case.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 4, 2011 -> 09:53 AM) FOr the record, I never connected the two either until just now. WOW! I didn't either. Talk about two different ends of the spectrum.

Caught the premiere of The Killing last night. In my opinion, it was one of the best starts to a new show in a long time. I hope it stays this good.

What happened?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 1, 2011 -> 03:19 PM) 3 at bats in and I'm already at the point that I'd rather soil myself then miss a Dunn PA.

Wow

Mna I wish I could see this game!

If the Sox get 90+ HRs from Rios, Dunn, and Konerko they will win the division.

Fringe has been renewed for next season. Fox did their best to kill it by moving it to Fridays, but thank god it had enough of a following to survive. I think this season has been the best so far...looking forward to next season now.

The West Wing They could have continued on whith that show with the new president.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 03:05 PM) Refresh my memory, I remember the name, but not the details. It was marketed as a burger for grown ups. I think it was 1/3 pound with bacon, some spicy sauce, and served on a thick bun.

American Idol Jersey Shore The poor marketing of good shows (Terriers, Lights Out) Emmy Rossum's clothes

I agree that one month a year of the McRib is enough. What I'd like to see back is the Arch Deluxe. That was a good burger.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 11, 2011 -> 07:50 AM) Sounds like you are overpaying for a phone that holds rollover minutes...how much do you actually talk on the phone that you need unlimited everything? Another scam are these tiered data plans -- MOST people spend 90-95% of their time on WiFi, using no OTA data...yet spend 30$ a month for an unlimited plan they will never use. I dropped my data plan to 2gigs, and I'm further considering dropping to to 200 megs...my average monthly data use is about 150mb, considering I'm almost always on WiFi no matter where I go. I have 2 iPhones and 1 regular phone on my AT&T plan, unlimited mobile to mobile, unlimited txt, 2 gigs of data on each iPhone -- 550 anytime minutes, nights/weekends free, and I have about 2500 rollover minutes as of now. I pay 150$ for all 3. I have almost the exact same plan. I don't use the phone for calls very often, but I use the web a lot and text a fair amount. I sometimes cringe when paying the bill, but looking at the other plans out there (considering two smart phones and a regular phone), I think it's a decent deal.

I watched this week's Shameless last night. Probably the best one of the season, IMO, and that is saying a lot. And now there's only 3 episodes left this season. What are we going to do without being able to see Emmy Rossum every week?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 02:05 PM) You HAVE to go to Noah's Ark if you're in the dells. When I was your kids age, that was pretty much my favorite place in the world, they'll have a blast. The hotel waterparks are certainly nice but they don't compare to Noah's Ark. I've heard that from several people, and I definitely plan on spending a day there.

I think Cricket has a decent plan for about $60 a month with unlimited texts and web. I'm not sure about call minutes.
