Mike Northing is being fired? I hope not, I actually enjoy listening to his show every now and than.

QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Feb 23, 2007 -> 08:38 PM) Last years version did suck. But then again, so did most of the next generation sports games on their first go-around. This year, all the sports titles have dramatically improved and with 2k sports hiring the main mastermind behind the MVP series, one would think this game will be great.... no brainer. I think its funny that all the EA fans will stick by a 2 year old game with ancient graphics over getting the current MLB title that has been essentially made by "the precious MVP" MVP '05 wasnt even that great, '04 was the best version by far. In what ways was 04 better than 05? They were both great games but 05 was basicly the same with better graphics, you could hit HR's with lefties, and had that hitter's eye thing. This game does look good though and from what Ive seen the best baseball game in a long while. I like how the curve actually is a curve in that it has an angle and shows that.

I hope he does make it too, he also is the ideal pitcher for our ballpark.

I dont think Santo deserves to get in, its the Hall of Fame not the Hall of pretty good.

If revenge is what you need to have "purpose" I find it a little pathetic. If someone killed my mom/sister of course Id want them in jail for life or put to death. And if somehow they got out of the crime Id want to do everything humanly possible to hurt them. But there gets to a point, where by going on with all this your just causing more pain to yourself than you are of the accused.

I hate short guys in the dunk contest, unless they are only 5'3 they best be doing one helluva trick because I dont care how tall/small you are I care about the style of the dunk.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 02:28 PM) If you knew who murdered your kid, and you knew they were still living the good life (for the most part), how easy would it be to just "move on"? Well, whatever happens he isnt going to be able to put OJ Simpson behind bars and he already has practically crippled him financially and ruined any image he once had. Now he needs to move on, its not easy but it's whats best for the family.

You have to be able to control your players.... and from the looks of it Weber hasnt been able to do that. And wasnt it Fathom or someone else who actually knew Dee Brown and supposedly the players dont even care much for Webber either. Top that off he cant recruit worth a damn either...... Regardless of what happens with Smith, this is a negative on Weber as well.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 05:05 PM) The increase is immaterial. The dollar amount is commiserate to pitchers of his cabilbur on the free agent market. But he wasn't a f/a. No way he gets what he wanted in arbitration.

QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 04:48 PM) He deserves a pretty harsh punishment, I dont care how drunk you are...why the hell are you leaving a teammate, better yet a friend unconcious in a car. Same with Chester, how does he nor McClain call 911...or how does Chester not help Brian...With teammates like these, who needs enemies? In Jamar's case he atleast had the concussion excuse, which really messes up the way you think temporarily, I have no clue why Frazier wouldnt have the cops called. So under Webber now is this the 3rd or 4th player that is having legal problems..... might be time to find a new coach. Was Luther Heads problems when Webber or Self was there?

Yeah, I think they need to move on and to stop worrying about OJ. Prolonging this crap is only going to keep the pain there. How long has it been now....

QUOTE(3E8 @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 06:37 AM) Definitely don't go with the first one. That's a horrible price, even with your buddy's discount. It's only an LCD monitor. I see no HD tuner included. Here is a 32" LCD with HDTV tuner for $100 less: 32" MAG $1k for the 46" LCD HDTV is pretty good. Do you need a TV this big? For a viewing distance of 12' or less, 42" is sufficient. I prefer plasma to LCD though, and if you watch a lot of sports then plasma is the better choice. Finding a decent 42" plasma under $1000 is not difficult. Actually see what your friend can offer you in that department. Ugh, stay away from Plasma at all costs. Plus Im making an assumption here but I think Red & White likes to play video games atleast sport ones and thats a big no on plasma anyways.

I have very little memory of Foulke too. Infact my memory is even starting to fade of Billy Koch, although I still do remember a great deal of bs by him.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 01:09 AM) Way to assume that it was a Republican that started that. No need for some evidence or anything. The only enemies Hilary has are Republicans, I guess, and only they can stoop so low as to create stuff like this. Yeah. Its sad though really, if it was the other way around the republicans on this board would be saying "Only democrats would stoop this low" I really fail to see how someones political party has anything to do with how pathetic a certain individual is.

Thats so crazy how she does them so rapidly. Ive heard of people getting these extremely long cases of hiccups, but never ever seen someone do it as much as she did.

QUOTE(lord chas @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 05:18 AM) youre right briggs is better. briggs had more solo tackles and made more big plays. the super bowl definitely and even the divisional round exposed urlacher for not being able to take on blockers and stop anyone from running right up his ass. You have no idea what your talking about

yeah that is pretty funny

Tom Savini, an actor who is going to be in it and before that maybe the top horror movie special effects guy or costume guy something like that went to Harper College and showed us the preview in like november. He was super hyped up about the movie and said its the best thing he has ever been a part of. Some of you might know Tom Savini as "Sex Machine" in "From Dusk till Dawn"

Yeah, and if he just went out in public and said it would be one thing. To me since he was answering a question it was a little different. Not 2 mention I bet thats how the majority of NBA players feel about it. Hell I bet some people in this thread saying omg how could Hardaway say that share the same feelings.

Yeah, even if he is with the Indians, I cant root against Politte I just like him to damn much.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 11:42 PM) When your injury occurs when you were doing something that is banned by your contract. When that happens, you make up some silly story that no one will ever question, like you fell down some stairs while carrying groceries, or hurt yourself in a hot tub, something like that. That was the story madeup by that SS for the Rockies right lol, he came out of no where to have that magical season too, or start of a magical season.

Idonno I guess I tend to different from most people. Id rather someone be honest with me than lie about something. And I know how racism feels especially after 9/11 and I still feel that way. And if someone is racist thats ok to me to, as long as they dont go parading around and trying to get other people to join them as well. For example, my best friend's dad is very racist, but he doesnt force it into his son's/wife.

Rogan is/was a badass in fear factor. Ive never heard him as a comedian b4 though.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 04:56 PM) And he's a Chicago guy...I've lost a lot of respect for him... Yes you can. yes you can, but than don't expect athletes to tell the truth in the future, if you want to truth.... its ok to disagree with what someone says but to villify them for their personal beliefs just is going to get athletes in the future to either lie about it or say no comment.

Yeah they have shuttle busses or whatever, really if the delay is going to be over an hour they should get those people back into the airport. Its totally unacceptable being stuck in a plane that isnt moving for that long.
