So far today i have watched the following: Dracula - 1931 Frankenstein - 1931. Freaks - 1932. In this movie they used all real freaks. It's incredibly cool to see. For the longest time this was considered the most graphic film to hit the big screen. Those of you who have weak stomachs may have a hard time... and there is zero blood shed. Just a note to the pansies out there... Daisy and violet hilton were siamese twins that were in freaks... 22 years later they starred in a movie called chained for life. Not a great movie by any means... but very interesting nonetheless.. i mean the synopsis should lead you to believe that much. The invisible man - 1933. Bride of Frankenstein - 1935. The wolf man - 1941. Man of a thousand faces - 1957. Bud abbott and lou costello meet frankenstein (1948) will likely be the last film of this theme for tonight... i tend to like end my movie viewing on a lighter note. Well that and i love abbot and costello, so this is as good of an excuse as any. ============================================================================ Flasoxx... have you ever seen man of a thousand faces? I only ask because it seems pretty unlikely that anyone else has seen it other than potentially yourself. People complain about the story, that it's not entirely accurate or what not, which is truthful. Only if you knew about lon chaney's real life would it really bother someone... the average person would have no clue other wise. Anyway, i asked because of cagney's performance in it, i think he did a magnificent portrayal, and it was just so much different than any other cagney film, which is what boosts it up a notch for me.

Definitely not. Nothing good can come of it.

So no one runs on contact with two outs anymore? Fuld got to it quick... but there are teams who score three there.

Great f***ing play right there.

You can be a great player at some point, at some level, but no, you do not necessarily have to be at the major league level. Sure, in the grand scheme of things he is better than 99.9% of the world. We are not talking about a softball beer league, college, or the minors. We are discussing the major leagues. There are all different degrees of talent in the spectrum. This clearly goes for all sports. In the major leagues lillibridge has simply been a bad player, and i can't see how that can be disputed. Barring a situation that presents itself, sometimes bad (or worse) players end up making a team... because said team can't find anyone better... at least in their eyes. Also, there really is only so much talent in the league, and someone has to have the brent lillbridge's of the world. To me this is equivalent to saying a certain actor or actress ''can't act''. Are all of them automatically good and better? Do none suck? How can this be? When someone says someone can't act they simply mean in comparison to all the other examples they have witnessed before them. This actor that ''can't act'' on the big screen would blow the average person out of the water. This goes for writers, musicians, chefs. Compared to the rest of the world these professionals can write amazing, sing amazing, etc... i will in no way try to deny that. But to say they can't suck/be horrible comparison to the rest of those in their profession is just silly to me. Why do you ask? Because some honestly do. It's fair game to critique a players skill set in comparison to the rest of the league, i don't see how it can be any other way.

He got loss. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/...p&year=2010 http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/gamelog/_/id...0/matt-thornton

Since thornton is not closing this inning watch him do good here. ============================================================================== Only in the 9th do opposing batters know he pitches a fastball 99.8 percent of the time. In the 8th or 10th, they likely think he has a 7 pitch arsenal.

Omg thornton can't close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get ready for a quinten broken hand after he makes this out. Hell, he very well may break his own kneecap.

Each consecutive post you have made tex further proves the point being made against you. Let's be honest, this has been your shtick ever since i have been a member here, which is only three weeks shy of seven years. While it may surprise others, you could say it's hardly surprising to myself. It's old hat. Was this my business to get involved in something that did not currently involve me? Do i have the the right? You bet your sweet bippy. That last line is for all you old folks out there.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Mar 27, 2011 -> 01:52 PM) I really don't like going with a six-man bullpen to start the year. Granted there are off days, but the worst thing we can do is overworked our relievers early in the season just so Lillipad can stay on the roster two extra weeks. When will the Sox realize how worthless he is? Since ozzie guilen has been the white sox manager they have used the bullpen less than any other team in baseball. This should not be a worry, hardly anything to lose sleep over. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 27, 2011 -> 02:35 PM) Yes. Something back > nothing back. That's my point. Maybe Kenny just wants to get something rather than nothing, while having an excuse to cut Marquez and his awfulness. Garbage is still garbage. Swapping garbage for more garbage helps in no way. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 27, 2011 -> 04:24 PM) Its standard operating procedure as he is out of options. I don't think anyone will lose any sleep if some team claims him for some unknown reason, although he is the same pitcher as Jon Garland. If this were true he would be starting for someone in the major leagues. Garland is highly valuable considering his consistency innings wise. Currently he has a streak of nine years pitching 190+ innings. Six of those nine he reached 200 innings. There are not many of his ilk out there. When garland was making 10 million i wanted nothing to do with him, when he is making half of that, he is a damn fine addition to any rotation.

Haters gonna hate. Is that kinda like homers are gonna be homers?

I'm gonna be entirely shocked if j4l makes it through the season this year without ultimately being banned. You heard it here first...

QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 23, 2011 -> 05:05 PM) If Webster's ever needs an illustration for pessimist, they should give you a call. Why do you even follow the team?I'm convinced you're a troll with nothing but Cubbie pinstripes everywhere. Now you are just grasping at straws. Thanks for the laugh.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Mar 23, 2011 -> 12:46 AM) j4l and sqwerty = IGNORED In the future i will make sure to make as many posts as possible in which i quote someone... so at the very least you can still see my avatar. Btw, joemancool could come up with a wittier diss than sqwerty. At the very least you could have gotten in a better last jab than something as juvenile as that.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 11:29 PM) Why does this dude think anybody gives a s*** that he has me/us/them or whatever on ignore? He mentions it every 12 seconds. The ignore feature is pathetic. Wahhhhhhh... i can't handle hearing something i don't like or disagree with. Wahhhhh... so and so is so vulgar... wahhhhhh... so and so is so annoying and stupid. Such is life. Deal with it and move on. Not everyone can coward into a corner and not deal with what is at hand. Well they could i suppose, but nothing would get resolved, and it would be nothing short of disgraceful. Ignoring someone is just letting them get their way. You are being fed right into their hands. Hilarious.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 07:28 AM) Thanks alot Keith. Was way too young to go. Just heard he had an overdose on pills (I believe pain pills). Crazy thing was, he left Chicago to get out of trouble for a while. He left chicago for vegas to rid himself of his demons... sin city seems like one of the last places to go... no? Since i don't know the full details, he very well could have just been visiting. Otherwise, i question his sincerity to getting clean.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 19, 2011 -> 06:47 PM) Pretty sure qwerty was dripping with sarcasm here. Ding, ding, ding, thankfully. People should know me better than that, especially j4l. After all...

He only has one pitch and was bad in the chances he had to close. I wouldn't do it.
