QUOTE (The Beast @ May 19, 2008 -> 09:28 PM) No kidding. Where'd you go to high school? As dumb as it sounds, Lemont High School. I'm not even exaggerating, but my house was right on the line of school districts. The house across the street belonged in the Downers Grove South and mine was in the Lemont school district.

Born in Downers Grove, grew up in Woodridge, currently reside in Tallahassee for school, and my parents moved to Marco Island, FL so I guess that's "home" now.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ May 9, 2008 -> 03:32 PM) Maybe its a trigger device thats hooked up to his vitals somehow. If he dies, something blows up. Who knows, I'm probably wrong. Maybe I was right? The C4 has a good possibility of being related to the device on his arm?

It's pop. I hate people down here who call it soda or coke.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 13, 2008 -> 06:01 PM) I doubt Posey is going to pitch in the majors, as the highlights ESPN televised yesterday showed he was throwing 86 mph fastballs. I'd say there's no way he pitches. He's only a two pitch pitcher, and like you said, he doesn't have the velocity to rely just on the fastball.

I would love to get Posey, but I don't know if he'll fall to us. He's a contact hitter(although he does have 16 homers this year) with the ability to work the whole field, has a great eye, and he also has an absolute cannon and loves picking people off first and second. It's been fun watching Buster the last two years.

Its currently 13-1 in the 3rd in tonights game and their starting pitcher is still in, I feel bad. Edit:16-1 after 3.

QUOTE (zenryan @ May 10, 2008 -> 12:11 AM) lol. poor Savannah State. Miami played St Mary's last weekend and I hated it. Losing just one of those games means a bad weekend really. Luckily we swept them. Beat VT today 12-4. It was 3-3 after 6 but the bats finally came alive with Blake Tekotte hitting 3 HR's today. I'm split bout the tourney. I want to play you guys for the championship because it would be a great game, but the easier game would be UNC (haha, not that much easier) or another team. And I absolutely hate playing teams like Savannah and St. Mary's this late. Losing one of those games would be embarrassing. It's a four game series so hopefully all goes well.

How about those fighting fish? 21-14, best start in franchise history. I actually really enjoy watching their games. I set up my laptop with a Sox game and then put the Marlins on the TV since we get all of their games. I never really watched any games before last year (last year was my first summer down here), but I love their announcers. Even when they sucked last year, they still made it very enjoyable to watch.

ACC tourney is what I'm waiting for. We're playing a 4 game set with Savannah State right now. First game was 23-4 in seven innings. It was 13-1 after 3 and the starters were all pulled after that.

QUOTE (juddling @ May 9, 2008 -> 12:48 PM) I think Rambo is too focused on his job to worry much about Sayid and Desmond at this point....though i'm curious as to what he had strapped to his arm last night. Could it be something to help him find Jacob's cabin????? Maybe its a trigger device thats hooked up to his vitals somehow. If he dies, something blows up. Who knows, I'm probably wrong.

QUOTE (kane0730 @ May 9, 2008 -> 09:29 AM) It looks like we will be missing every teams best starters: Hernandez Bedard Santana Lackey (DL) Lincecum I'd be very happy with a 6-4 trip. Especially how the last one just went. Right now the Angels are planning on throwing Lackey on Wednesday against us if he doesn't have any setbacks. Per YahooSports:

Who was the black guy pushing Locke around in the wheel chair? He looked so damn familiar and I know I should know who it is, but I'm drawing a blank.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 8, 2008 -> 10:59 PM) Also...

QUOTE (juddling @ May 6, 2008 -> 10:57 AM) Maybe it was all for a ceremony to Jobu to wake up the bats. I'm all for that Haha. Too bad someone would be offended by that too... Or maybe i shouldn't put green?

Hmmm...did Joe really have a migraine or was he just having too much fun in the clubhouse?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 5, 2008 -> 09:47 PM) Why not PH Uribe there? We also missed the guy who can not travel. Ozuna needs to be released immediately. That was a straight fastball belt high down the middle. There has to be better players than him. His once neat ability is gone. Because he was playing 2B?

I wish the puke smiley still existed.

Well, that was f***ing disgusting.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ May 4, 2008 -> 12:18 PM) Cedric Benson Charged With Boating While Intoxicated lmao, ESPN just said he was pepper sprayed too.

I got GTA around 1. It still says it hasn't shipped on ebs website...maybe I'll get 2 or they just don't update orders anymore.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 29, 2008 -> 10:00 AM) Why would you order online when you could have just gone to the store to pre-order it hours before it's release? However, does the "get your money back" include keeping the game? If so, the day or so you have to wait would be worth the free game. One note though, from what I've read in the past, companies aren't allowed to ship until the release date, so maybe you misread things? Nah, I've done this plenty of times before with Brawl, NCAA08, etc. When I'm down in Marco Island the nearest EBgames is 40 minutes away. I figured I didn't want to waste the gas/time to drive 40 minutes each way. Usually this way is a good way to go, but oh well. Eh, I just checked and it's only for the shipping amount. Oh well.

Well, I ordered GTA4 on EBgames.com with overnight shipping a couple of days ago. They guaranteed for it to be here today if you bought it by yesterday at noon or you get your money back...It hasn't even shipped so it looks like I'm going to have to go through their clusterf*** that is customer service.

I just made a team. If anyone wants in, let me know.
