QUOTE(zenryan @ Jul 20, 2007 -> 07:18 PM) chimpy---looks like both of our teams are cleaning up so far this summer. Yeah, for sure. I'm really impressed with the guys Miami is getting. It's funny, you'd think UF would be raking in, not us. Maybe Urban's lies are starting to catch up to him.

We got commitment 14 today and I wouldn't be surprised if we pulled in one or two more before this weekend is over with the Seminole Showcase camp. I'm excited about Footman and Parks. One analyst said Footman will be a 4* (he was pre-evaluation Top 100, but slipped because of grades) in the August rankings now that he scored well on the ACT, he is still in question to qualify though. Also, Parks has offers from Ohio State, Florida, and many other impressive schools. I read he is a 3* because he suffered a knee injury last season or something like that.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 18, 2007 -> 02:06 PM) Well, on the suspension, it's not necessarily as open-and-shut as something like Pacman, who had 10 runins with the law before his suspension, or Tank, who was convicted and jailed before his suspension. The government still has to prove their case in a court of law and in their eyes Mr. Vick is required to be treated as innocent until proven. So here's the question; with Vick having no priors, unlike the other guys, what happens if the league suspends him for 8 games or so and then he winds up being found not guilty? Good points, but he isn't without some sort of history. Sure, they're nowhere near PacMan's previous run-ins, but Vick has been involved with flicking off home fans, Ron Mexico, and the "water bottle". I guess I'm really anti-Vick. For me hearing the stuff informants have said is enough to make me want him out of the league for a long time. How does a franchise defend this? Pacman and Tank played a lot, but they weren't the face of the organization. Also, if I was a player, I could not see myself playing with Vick (and he's, the QB, essentially the team leader)after this, and I would think some have to feel that way.

I can't believe the poll on ESPN that says only 58% of the people who voted believe he should be suspended now. I thought for sure it would have been 80%/20%. I also can't fathom how someone could treat a living thing like that. There's the one report that he was there when a dog was soaked with a hose and then electrocuted. That's so sick and twisted, I don't know how anyone could even do it.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 14, 2007 -> 11:56 AM) As someone who owns both a 360 and PS3, the 360 is the one collecting dust. Got both at the same time. 360 really doesn't excite me. In fact, if someone robbed me of it, I wouldn't even realize it until maybe years later. If I got PS3 today, what's one game I would need to get? (Besides Resistance and Ninja Gaiden, I've heard those are both awesome). Also, I'd need to buy the HDTV AV cables right?

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Jul 14, 2007 -> 11:36 AM) Just had to comment, it's hilarious that my PS3's wireless internet was 10x easier to set-up than my Linksys wireless home computers. Gah, I'm so torn. I want a ps3, but I dont want it. I'm afraid if I get it all it's going to do is collect dust, like my Wii, until MGS4 comes out. I could wait a month and buy Madden on ps3 along with GTAIV, and basically play Ncaa08 and halo on 360 and madden and gtaiv on ps3. I'm not really sold on Haze yet so that doesn't really excite me.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 08:56 PM) Also of note, #13 QB from last year Steven Threet is already transferring from Georgia Tech. Might be of interest here because Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin were 3 of his finalist and he's from Michigan. My friend from Michigan told me he is transferring to UM. I haven't seen anything official, and I find that odd since he'll be sitting behind Mallet.

MGS4 looks awesome.

Word from JC Schurbertt (Rivals.com Southeastern Analyst) isFSU is looking good for 5 stars Darrell Scott and Deion Walker.

QUOTE(BearSox @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 11:29 PM) Gears of War coming to the ps3... more reason for me not to get a 360. Gears of War for the pc will have: 5 new single player chapters, new multiplayer arenas, a new multiplayer mode, new achievements I hope they won't have xbox 360 users be able to download that and instead try and get some more money by having them have to buy the computer version. That doesn't make sense that it's going to PS3. Microsoft said it will be multi-platform, but why would a game published by Microsoft go a Sony counsel? Also I haven't seen anything saying it's going to PS3, only PC. But besides that, I think I'm the only one who doesn't like Gears of War

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Jul 11, 2007 -> 01:58 PM) Man, Chimpy, I never realized how tough FSU's schedule is this year. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/foot....acc/index.html Sept. 3 at Clemson Sept. 8 UAB Sept. 15 at Colorado Sept. 29 Alabama Oct. 6 N.C. State Oct. 11 at Wake Forest Oct. 20 Miami (Fla.) Oct. 27 Duke Nov. 3 at Boston College Nov. 10 at Virginia Tech Nov. 17 Maryland Nov. 24 at Florida Yeah man, it's brutal. We had 8 home games last year and blew a great opportunity, and this year it evens itself out and we get 5. I hope Clemson's QB situation isn't set, but still, playing in Death Valley is always tough. UAB should be a win, but it's a short week. I really don't know too much about Colorado, I've watched a couple of the scouting tapes when we put em together, but couldn't really get too much off of them. Alabama is a toss up in Jacksonville, I would love to beat Satan though. I don't know about NC State as a team, but I love Tom O'Brien. I'm not buying the WF hype, but it sucks that we play them on only 5 days after NC State. Miami will be fun, I can't wait for that game..I'm split if I want to work or not, that means being on the field or getting trashed. Duke should be a win. BC has a good QB, but I don't know bout their D. Maryland I see being a win. Florida......Rivalry game, I don't think they're as good as last year (obviously), and I don't buy the Tebow hype. It should be close game, but I think they might win because it's at UF. Eh, I forgot Va Tech. I'll be shocked if we win that game. It's a tough schedule for the new coaching staff to go through, but we'll see. I think 8-4 is realistic with shots at 9-3, but also a possibility of falling to 7-5. I think a lot of it hinges on the QB play. I think 8-4 is realistic, but things could go wrong and I could see 6-6 even.

At least they made it interesting. I have to wonder why he wouldn't PH Pujols though.

WHERE IS THE BIG MAN?

I love Ichiro.

QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Jul 10, 2007 -> 07:56 PM) For those of you with a 360, a demo of NCAA 08 was released. I'm very impressed. I love it. It runs so smooth and gone are the days when you knew a certain animation would get you 3 more yards.

I would say the 120GB is worth it only if you are going to buy and download movies/tv shows/music. If not, 20GB is plenty for demos and saved games.

There's rumor of a xbox360 price drop now. Elite: 399.99 Premium: 349.99 Pro: 299.99 (same price) I have also heard rumors of the Pro going to 249.99, but who knows.

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jul 9, 2007 -> 01:26 PM) PS3 if it drops $100 I don't trust the 360 and its 1/3 failure rate I don't know if you've heard, but the price drop is official now.

I'm up for whatever.

I'm torn...my 360 finally died on me and I'm thinking of getting a PS3. However, the games suck right now and even the sports games run better on 360 right now (60 fps vs 30 fps). Also, I know I want Halo 3, and obviously, that is an exclusive. The other game I really want isn't exclusive to PS3 (GTAIV). I guess in the end, I love the 360, but I'm f***ing fed up with Microsoft and their bulls***. I feel sort of handcuffed here.

I can't wait for NCAA08. I got lucky about a week ago and bought it on ebgames.com with free overnight shipping.

Head over to the Phillies website and it's on there.

That just made my day! MB
