What I remember is feeling like there weren't many lunch options downtown, especially places for a quick lunch. I got really burnt out and starting packing a lunch.

Looks like I'll be in town for Sept 9th-16th. Any good shows in town during that time?

That's pretty cool.

You get into a fight, by far he lands the majority of the clean shots. Bloodies your lip and puts a bunch of lumps on your face. You land one helluva shot and break his jaw. Who won the fight?

Predictions for this Ray's series? I'm really curious as I still just can't believe in the Rays. It would be a great time for the Sox to step up and make a statement with a sweep. I say we'll take 2.

Bruised cervix, out for the season. I'm surprised you are at the Doc's. Most guys don't go unless their ass is bleeding, or their cock quits working.

Team handball looks like a sport invented by a guy who failed at all 4 major sports.

How many runs has the A's pitching staff given up in the last 6 games or so?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:07 PM) If I recall correctly, Jamaica has about as few problems with positive drug tests as any nation with great sprinters. Plus, Bolt is just so tall and thin, he just seems like a freak of nature moreso than a cheater. I could be wrong though of course. I was kinda kidding. Unfortunately nowadays, no one is free from suspicion, especially after a performance like THAT. As far as his frame, he's built more for distance than speed.

QUOTE (credescrew24 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 11:45 AM) just about 10 min or so north of the big A....i live in the brea area along the 57fwy.......................... i think i got sunday tickets in RF sec 103 so as long as i get there early i can get in? thanks again for any info provided! They're planning the parade already in those parts.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 11:16 AM) I get the half chicken meal which comes with a side (mashed potatos for me), bread, and a drink for $7.75. You can also get sauce on the side. Not bad. Once in a while, I'd get a personal size, deep dish pizza from Giordano's. Four slices, two toppings for under $6.00 if you pick it up.

Where in SoCal are you?

It came down to TT or Pineapple Express. I wish I'd seen PE. The 'previews' at the beginning of TT were probably the funniest part.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 07:27 AM) Chicken Planet is most excellent, but I have found a new spot I actually like better. Pollittos over on 39 N. Wells between Madison and Washington. Best Rotisserre chicken downtown. Really? What's lunch cost and whadaya get?

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Aug 18, 2008 -> 07:01 PM) Rocky Biddle, Jeff Liefer, Lorenzo Barcelo, Jesus Pena, Felix Diaz, Chris Snopek, Mark Johnson, and little Liu Rodriguez Jeff Liefer! I always had much love for him and Ross Gload. They had the to ride the pine behind Frank and Paulie, they'd play maybe once a month, go 0 for 4 and every Sox fan would say they suck.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 18, 2008 -> 11:55 PM) Not sure if anybody saw the 200 meter qualifier they showed tonight with Bolt, but it might have been even more scary than some of his 100's. He basically jogged the last 75 meters and still won easily. As for gymnastics, I actually find it entertaining to watch and any sport which is judged for all the scoring will have a flawed system. However, some of the scoring in this olympiad has been criminal, even somebody who knows little about gymnastics like me can see some of this stuff. The 400 meter hurdles sweep for the United States was nice though. Time to have him and the Jamaican females take another 'wiz quiz'.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Aug 17, 2008 -> 02:57 PM) I thought it was good, but not as great as the reviews it's getting. I didn't think Robert Downey Jr was that funny and Jack Black had a few decent lines. The main "cameo" was much more than and I thought he was the best in the film. Danny McBride had a good character as well. I loved the ending. Saw it tonight and you hit it right on the head. Going in, I had no idea about the cameo and it took me a while to realize who it was.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 18, 2008 -> 03:41 PM) Yes Haifa is still open. They will give you a giant pile of spicy, moist, white turkey meat, a mountain of yellow rice, two huge pita breads and falafel, for like $7.00

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Aug 18, 2008 -> 03:29 PM) You ruined my revelation. I was all jazzed to post about "the planet" and you stole my thunder. I got them to cater my son's 2nd birthday party and deliver it. I challenge anyone to make cheaper, healthier chicken w/sides from your own kitchen. Others of note: Courtway restaurant inside 29 S. LaSalle lobby (uust south of madison). Excellent fresh made rolls and the fastest sit down service around. Stocks and Blonds just under the Washington and Wells El stop. Menu is decent overall but on Friday the fish fry special is very notable. Place fills up fash, especially during lent. Jaffa Bagel inside Ogilvie Transportation Center - Great roast turkey sandwiches fresh off the carcass. Made to order but watch so they do not skimp on the toppings. Glad to hear the Planet is alive and well. Anyone know a place called Haifa Cafe across from the Sears Tower on Adams? Great Mid Eastern food. Again, nice portions, great taste and decent value for downtown. Still around?

A few from the '77-'78 teams. Jorge Orta, Claudell Washington.

How about Chicken Planet on Jackson just off of State? Half a roasted chicken, bread, two sides + drink= $6.00

So what's the mood about the Cubs in the city right now? Is it, the Cubs are gonna win the WS?...or are Cub fans afraid to stick their necks out?
