De La Hoya vs. Pacquiao
QUOTE (SmashROT @ Dec 6, 2008 -> 06:42 PM) I've always been a fan of boxing moreso than MMA. MMA just seems too brutal to enjoy in my case. With that said however, it is impossible to deny its place in the sporting world. It has effectively eclipsed boxing as the ring event of choice. What can the WBA do? Roll out an over the hill De La Hoya once again, and promote the crap out of it. How long has it been since we've seen a new icon break on to the boxing scene? Even Floyd Mayweather lacks the name recognition of the De La Hoyas and Trinidads of the world (much less the Tysons, Fraziers, and Alis). Boxing is in a coma. I miss Butterbean. Pretty Boy is essentially the most popular boxer of all-time. He needs to get out of retirement and save boxing.

Call Your Crazy!!
Kenny Williams will go under the radar to get a guy who hasn't lived up to his high potential in a classic Kenny buy low move and Coop will then fix this player.

Video Game Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 07:10 PM) Yeah, they need a *pop* title soon. Wii Music isnt as great as they wanted it to be. In fact, i have read it is downright bad. It's sales reflected that too. It wasn't the craze that Sports or Fit were. You can count the number of bad 1st party games in their long history on one hand, and Wii Music is probably one of them.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 4, 2008 -> 05:25 PM) Mario Party 8 IGN rating: 5.4 Wario Ware IGN rating: 8.3 MP8 is only rated that way because of the whoring of the series and a refuse to innovatee. I haven't actually played it but from my experience 7 was every bit as fun as one and every other one in between. Still, WarioWare is one of the best new IPs created over the past ten years. I just don't get it's purpose on consoles.

Dye to Reds Speculation
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 3, 2008 -> 04:50 AM) I'm starting to think Jackson murdered somebody's pets or something. The hate is off the charts. Hate...? What board are you posting on? He gives Eric Chavez a run for his money when it comes to most talked about opposing players. Why this board has terrible taste in players, I don't know.

Edwin Jackson sucks. His name should be banned from this board to finally end this 4 year man crush.

What should have been the re-coming out party for Illinois basketball instead turns out to be a terrible loss at home to a lesser team. Who said the ghosts of 07-08 were gone? The same choke artist team was out there tonight. Just bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. -McCamey...someterrible decisions for a PG. Why did he insist on walking up on the court the last 3 minutes of the game when were down? Not to mention with a 11 seconds left. Speaking of the last possession, why in the blue hell did he not shoot it? Everyone thought, no knew, it was going to be one of those plays where McCamey takes his man one on one. And then he did something not even Chet Frazier expected...he passed it off. McCamey thought it was a good idea to take a 12 threes today...why would one more hurt? -Speaking of Chet Frazier, why was he out there on the last possession? Bad move when we have offensive weapons on the bench. -I hate Raymond Skiles. -Where was the MVP, Tisdale at? He only played ten minutes. Granted he didn't do anything in those ten minutes except foul...but still. -For having a coach who has made a career on having his players take care of the ball and play defense, we sure did have allow every single Clemson player possible into the paint and made way, way, way, way, way too many unforced TOs. Way too many. -Trent Meachum, your seat on the bench is waiting. Come on down, Alex Legion. -Mike Davis...my God. Recruiting steal of the century. That "terrible" 2007 class that Bruce recruited will be one of the country's best after 4 years. Heck, it already is. Davis, Tisdale, McCamey, and probably Legion too will all be legit NBA prospects at some point. How many teams across the land start 4 sophomores? -Now they better win out non-con play.

As for Mario Galaxy is might just be the best game ever. The IGN rating is justified.

There was some heated discussion on it. Screw the hate though, I bought the game and I'm about ten hours in and think it's phenomenal. Way better than Oblivion.

Curry held scoreless...and Davidson wins by 30. They were double teaming him when he was out on the perimeter even without the ball.

Funny RotoWorld take on Tyler Lumsden
He was one of the better relievers in baseball in '06. He had one bad year, though I guess we are still paying for him to not pitch.

Films Thread
I had never heard of it until the stupid movie came out. My friend was at the movies with another friend last night and they didn't know what to see. They had heard a lot about Twilight so bought tickets to that. Fifteen minutes in they realized, "Oh my god, we are at a chick flick together", and ran out.
