3E8

Tayshaun Prince looks like E.T.

Hinrich having a s***ty game so far.

Game tied after 1, 24 all.

Matsui hit 50 HR's in 2002. But I see your point nonetheless.

Iguchi's AB/HR figures: 1997: 27.125 1998: 20.048 (full season) 1999: 26.429 2000: 23.143 2001: 18.400 (full season) 2002: 23.778 2003: 19.074 (full season) 2004: 21.250 (full season) When healthy, you can see these numbers for Iguchi are quite impressive considering he plays in a pitchers park with high fences. He will help make up for lost power in Maggs, Lee, and Thomas (half of season). Konerko averaged a home run about every 14 AB's last year and Lee every 19 AB's. That was playing half their games in Coors east. Now I'm not sure if a pitcher's park in Japan is like a hitter's park in the States, or just how drasticly different the talent level is. But you'd think he'd provide at least some power numbers from the 2B position, which we haven't seen for awhile.

I know the members of Alkaline Trio and Lawrence Arms are Cubs fans.

Change this to a guilty pleasures thread. We already know Jeckle's.

QUOTE(awesomefan @ Jan 22, 2005 -> 12:44 AM) Speaking of Timo..........does anyone remember when Timo threw a runner out at 3rd base...all the way from right field? Perfect throw to Joe Crede. I wish I could see that play again. You just don't see that very often. Well now you can see it again, my friend. It was to Uribe, unless you're talking about a different play. This throw won us the game. Look under multimedia section.

QUOTE(whitesox91403 @ Jan 21, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) CUBS Jurko I was almost Positive that Jurko was a Sox fan. I thought I heard that on a broadcast one time. Also, I thought John Cusack was a Sox fan as well, I was really pissed because I thought he switched over in 2003, when The Pinheads went to The NLCS. Learn something new everyday, I guess. Maybe we still have Joan. She does work for U.S. Cellular...

Welcome to teh intarweb.

It only gets worse. I'd give anything to be back in high school.

To the dozens of families that experience a loss due to automobile accidents every day.

Is tonight's game on WGN?

Goddammit, I wanted them to lose so bad. Good luck next tuesday.

They shouldn't let it come down to that at home.

Yeah that's my favorite of all your greats.

"The Rose" - Photoshop *note: if you're using a Mac, replace any ctrl with cmd. 1. Make a new document. Make it a square of any size. Hit ctrl+D to set colors to default. 2. Filter > Render > Clouds. 3. Filter > Render > Difference Clouds. 4. Hit ctrl+I to invert colors. 5. Hit ctrl+L to bring up levels box. In the second box of "input levels", replace 1.00 with 0.10, hit ok. 6. Filter > Blur > Radial Blur, change settings to zoom, amount 27, and quality best. Hit ok. 7. Filter > Distort > Twirl. Set the angle to 300, hit ok. 8. Duplicate the layer by clicking on it and dragging it to the New Layer icon in the layers palette. The New Layer icon is the one that looks like the bottom left corner is being folded up. 9. Click on the new layer ("background copy") and go to Filter > Distort > Twirl. Set the angle to -600, hit ok. 10. Still on "background copy", change the blend mode to lighten by clicking the box that says "normal" in the top left of the layers palette and then selecting "lighten". 11. With "background copy" still selected, hit ctrl+E to merge the two layers. 12. Duplicate the remaining layer by clicking it and dragging it to the New Layer icon in the layers palette. 13. Click the new layer ("background copy") then go Edit > Transform > Rotate 90 CW 14.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jan 19, 2005 -> 06:22 PM) I agree completely, he needs to play well the whole season, not just the first half and the meaningless games at the end. Bulls***! Uribe's Monthly Batting Average April: .393 May: .303 June: .222 July: .123 (didn't get 60 AB's though) August: .289 September: .353 October: .333 (only 6 AB's, shouldn't really count) He batted AT LEAST .289 for over two-thirds of the season. If all of our players did that, we would've won more games.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jan 20, 2005 -> 10:20 AM) Update. Thx for the suggestions, picked up Sigur Ros and they have become my new cure for insomnia. :sleep Are you kidding me? Should've gone with CoCa - Second Stage Turbine Blade.

Yes, make this a Photoshop tutorial thread. I know a couple that I can give.
