  1. QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 9, 2009 -> 09:49 AM) "We?" semantics.
  2. QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 9, 2009 -> 09:47 AM) Yes, a very, very, very powerful man. The US president shapes world policy. Everyone has to react to how we are going to go about things. There's a reason the rest of the world knows so much about our political leaders. Can we stop acting llike Obamania exists? The guy is getting criticized way more than he is getting praised, this has been happening consistently for the past 4 months at least. CNN ran a fact check over whether his comparison to hitler was legit. dude if you were paying ANY attention during the election, you'd know Obamania did exist. People voted for him without ANY knowledge of ANY of his policies. Hope they said. He's hopeful. And yes, I know that this sort of thing happens in many elections, but it doesn't get people who have NEVER voted before to register. That part was new. In any case, yes I know there has been criticism, but there has always been this air of "he can fix everything" about Obama. And one other thing is that he seems to like being a celebrity president and that adds to the "Obamania". I mean, commercials with him and George Lopez? Come the f*** on. How bout spend that day working on health care instead of shooting a dumbass commercial for a bad comedian.
  3. as a Dem, I'm thoroughly confused and slightly annoyed. I hate this kind of blind faith, and I thought we'd gotten past all the Obamania. But I guess we haven't quite... shame. Essentially with all this godliness we're heaping on Obama, it's going to be impossible for him to "succeed". How bout he's just a man. A very powerful man, but a man nonetheless. Not to mention one with a pitiful congress backing him up. But that's for another time.
  4. the pitchers duel is the no. 1 reason i'd pick our 1-0. well that, and i was there.

    P90X

    I'm gonna start P90x. my roommate's been doing it, and he's been pressuring me to do it too. so we'll see how this goes!
  7. QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 12:07 PM) dude, I am from Chicago...I know my f***in aligator. lol damn you're right. what was i thinking...
  8. QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 12:01 PM) I think it is a boiled aligator...thats what I think... like seriously? look at the head!
  9. it's a sloth. this one wasn't even hard. wait till the end of the video and check out the feet.
  10. Hawk is AMAZING in this. just doesn't stop laughing.
  11. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 11:04 AM) I've got Michael (the cool brother). i dunno man, Brian is 3 for 5 in Elimination Challenges.
  12. Glee - underwhelmed... i'm even a musical theatre geek and i can't get past the terrible, terrible plot structure. Top Chef - going strong! Digging Jennifer and Kevin. The Voltaggio Bros. are solid as hell too. Can't wait for HIMYM on Monday, but I hope they step it up from last season. This show needs to END. .... is it January yet?
  13. QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 10:23 AM) While that may be true, but it's a good way to manufacture runs when in a prolonged slump. This years team, no good. But a quicker team, absolutely, if used correctly. except ozzie will have them bunt even when NOT in prolonged slumps. Giving away outs.
  14. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 10:07 AM) Great idea, giving up outs when a lineup is already struggling to produce runs. Bunting before the 7th inning unless a pitcher or a guy like Lillibridge is up is stupid. generally i agree. just because you liked to bunt ozzie doesn't make it the right thing for every team you manage...
  15. i mean, at least next year we'll be a faster team in general... so... maybe it can work? but man... when he tried to push small ball with PK, JT, and JD clogging that lineup, it was pure comedy.
  16. QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 01:12 PM) As someone who can get Mets tickets fairly easily and cheaply this frustrates the hell out of me. as someone who's second fav. team and my brother's favorite team is the mets, and the fact that the only time they ever DID play each other we were out of the country, I am beyond frustrated! we should start a campaign.
  17. QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 12:14 PM) It was bad, I know. But it was a hanging fastball. I had to swing at it. how does one hang a fastball?
  18. QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 11:32 AM) Edit: And really the Court shouldn't be in the business of this anyway. I mean, the Constitution was aimed at Federal and State actions, not private actions. If a franchise wants to be the homo-bashers, they should be able to. But now that these organizations have gotten so big, at some point, they've been linked to state/federal action. hmm i always thought sports teams got funding from the city and state to build their stadiums!
  19. QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 10:44 AM) I dont think it is the courts place. If people are that upset by it, they will stop buying the product or let it be known. it's the court's place to end discrimination and racism as it is... illegal...
  20. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2009 -> 04:36 PM) Yeah, the Angels have a pretty nasty line-up, Morales has really surged this year, FINALLY, and there's not even room for the likes of Howie Kendrick because "Mighty" Maicer is playing so well. Rivera and Hunter have picked it up over their career numbers, too. Napoli is second in major league homers from the catcher spot over the last two seasons to McCann. GMJ is also superfluous. There aren't many holes. It's like "upside down" world, because their offense is usually a bit questionable, with their defense/speed and pitching (both starting and bullpen) leading the way. Brandon Wood would be getting significant playing time in many other organizations, but won't even sniff the Angels' line-up anytime soon. i would love kendrick... even though we really don't need more middle infielders...
  21. I am the most anti-PC person out there, and I make fun of every race, every religion, blah blah blah. BUT the difference is that it's just me, a private citizen, who is doing it. And it's up to me if i think the situation warrants that kind of flippancy or not. But with a nationally recognized organization, i think they have a responsibility to be more sensitive. Come on, can you imagine the Louisiana Blackies? How quickly would s*** hit the fan on that one? So how is Redskins or Chief Wahoo (chief WAHOO for god's sake) any better? I've got an issue with those ones.
  22. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 03:37 PM) i hate the majority of americans because they're just THAT stupid. (hyperbole warning)
  23. of course the year I finally decide to follow the Bears from start to finish, that awesome game takes place AND Urlacher's out for the year. It's a sign....
