so I am going to a movie tonight, not sure which one I should see. Any suggestions?

Slacker Radio is the best thing. Ever.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 12:14 AM) My copy Killzone 2 shipped 2 hours ago from Amazon. Can't wait to play it tomorrow. You f***er. I cant wait to hear your reviews.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:52 AM) what do you mean? The plane was on the ground to the right of an oddly flat and wide patch of ground... Is that not resting on some trees?

I liked his quote in the paper today about taking a picture with the Bulls. "I want to stand by Ben Gordon because he's so short"

QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 12:39 PM) Poreda threw 21 pitches, 18 fastballs, two breaking pitches and a change-up. His fastball was clocked from 91-93 mph. Where'd you find that? He must either be taking it easy or was working on cutting his fastball.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:50 AM) http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2009/02/be..._agency_si.html Pretty good move by the Bears IMO.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:33 AM) Another theory of mine... After the flash and Ben realized he hadnt "flashed" off the plane, he ran to the cockpit and told Frank where to land on the Hydra island.... the landing strip Sawyer was building. But the plane was seen in the tree when Locke appeared. I think the plane crashed not unlike before. Also, did Ben really think Locke was going to be reincarnated? He said how much he would miss him.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 10:51 AM) I am going to be fascinated to see how the Big 10 does in the NCAA Tournament. It's hard to argue with the numbers that say the Big 10 is a very good league this year, but it's hard to rip on anybody who says Big 10 basketball is ugly and difficult to watch because it really is. Thank God NCAA basketball has a tournament that helps settle things and we get to find out just how good the Big 10 is in March. It really depends on the refs they get for each game. The Big Ten plays a very physical style of ball defensively and if the refs let some contact go, they can give teams trouble. If they call touch fouls for any reason, the team will be in foul trouble and will be done most likely.

QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:14 AM) Poreda rough start so far...Homer by Furcal, single by Hudson, according to Joe Cowley. Updates here: http://twitter.com/cst_sox He's working alot on his secondary pitches probably, but the kid still has growing to do to get professional hitters like Furcal and Hudson out.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:12 AM) I was going to say Big Stein, but I think he only has 6. How about the Buss family? How long have they had the Lakers? Since Magic's second year I think. Maybe before that. That makes him have 8 with the Lakers. So he's on their Mount Rushmore.

BTW, Floyd's fastball was popping yesterday.

I'd have to add the Chairman to any mount rushmore of chicago. He brought 7 titles to this city, is there another owner in sports today that has accomplished that feat?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 09:20 AM) Guys, stop gaying up my thread. Its already reached that level.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 05:05 PM) I think the amount of hate White Sox fans have for the Cubs is annoying and stupid. The Cubs series means absolutely nothing in the context of baseball, and it has basically nothing to do with our team making or missing the playoffs. The games against the Twins, on the other hand, actually have relevance to our playoff chances and should be considered much more important than the six games against the Cubs. I do realize that Cub fans are annoying, but that has absolutely no impact on whether or not our team is successful. Thats your perspective. I assure you people from here think the opposite.

So....Are they hot?

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) Rock, weren't you the one who recommended Shure? I see BigSqwert just said something about them.I tried them after I bought my Bose and felt stupid. Shure has a superior product.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 07:46 PM) Absolutely pathetic performance by the Minnesota guards today, but at least DJ looked like he cared. DJ was the best player out there without a doubt, and while Iverson and Sampson plays alright inside, it's not enough when your guards play as terrible as they did today. Its hard to watch Iverson's ugly face on TV.

I have the Bose in ear ones too, and they arent all that impressive.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 10:39 AM) Keep in mind, at that point you are taking Ben's word that Jack bought a ticket. This is before Jack went crazy right? And didnt it say before that he was flying those routes on a consistent basis at one point hoping he would crash?

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 04:08 PM) The (more specific) point I was alluding to was, in 2010 there will be a big name (Viciedo, Fields) or one of the current standing 2B (Lilli, Nix, Getz, /Betemit/) missing the team entirely We seem to have too much depth in the IF. Coming from a situation where we had ZERO depth, its a nice problem to have. But yes, you are right. Fields could easily have a big season then get traded, The Pimp could be at 1B with Becks tat 3B.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 04:03 PM) Beckham steals 2nd. I want Beckham instead of Getz. Too bad it won't happen. Is it safe to assume that in 2010, 2B is pretty much cemented to Beckham and these guys playing the position this year won't even get a sniff next year? Becks could still be at short and Alexei could be in CF. Or slayer could in the OF, or at 3B, or at 2B if Getz plays well. Options.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 10:31 AM) Honestly, that's really sad. You wouldn't care that our main rival won the World Series? The Twins are our competition if we ever want to win anything. The Cubs? 6 games. Wow, its so obvious you arent from here.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 02:12 PM) I was talking to a guy at work a couple of days ago and we were remarking about how Norm really hadn't been looking good lately. I noticed that. He comes into my starbucks once in awhile.
