I lost 2 games so far, Nevada and Seton Hall. Other than that im looking pretty good. Im sure today will change my luck though.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 04:02 PM) Even funnier, I have seen big ads for Cubs tickets in the ad ticker on here. the links at the bottom change every page.

Prada, London Hotels, E Harmony. What are you guys trying to imply?

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 03:20 PM) Yeah, lol. I deleted my post too early. ah, so I wasnt wrong

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 03:16 PM) Actually, we're both wrong. I searched IMDB, and the character in question is Eric Christian Olsen. He was never in Eurotrip. The actor in Eurotrip--Jacob Pitts--looks exactly like him, though. http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0356150/Ss/...ath_key=0356150 http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/2165/E...ric%20Christian Now there's a problem--two people who play equally annoying characters exist in this world. Its the kid from dumb and dumberer right? Or not another teen movie, I cant recall which one.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 06:54 PM) I think Oden will dominate. Last year on national television he beat Tyler Hansbrough. Oden's just so big and strong for his age is ridiculous. Seriously, he would be the best big man on some NBA teams.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 01:49 PM) GOOOOOOOOOOO PACIFIC. I have BC losing in the 2nd round, go Pacific. This will hurt alot of people. Seton Hall really sucked today, but I did pick Wisc Mil

QUOTE(Wong & Owens @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 09:06 AM) I agree, but there ain't no way I believe she used the word 'politicize.' Wayyyy too big of a word for her. I personally think 90 percent of her personality is an act.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 12:40 PM) I know your joking and all, but I almost wish it were true because it is going to be a disaster when it finally happens. A part of me actually wants to take my digital down to the Sears Tower just to see if I even get noticed trying to mimic the behavior of these people. I walk by the Tower at least once a day and there are always more than 10 people taking pictures of the tower at a time. Its a tourist attraction, and people love to photograph it. You would have to be really obvious to be noticed.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 11:52 PM) His father and uncle (I believe) were also on the Cuban Nation Team. They're treated like kings in Cuba. He doesn't quite have the incentive to defect that some of the others have. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Is that about 10 million dollars worth of money signs? Because that guy is worth that, at a minimum.

QUOTE(G&T @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 08:35 AM) I didn't like that movie either. I just might have to join. That movie is awesome.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 12:27 AM) I hope the show bombs. For no other reason than one of the main character's interacts with the blonde haired kid from Eurotrip. I can't knowingly support a show where that moron is featured for even several seconds. Thats not the blond kid from roadtrip, its Lloyd from the prequel of Dumb and Dumber.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 16, 2006 -> 08:24 AM) This is right across the street from me, yikes. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/custom/...ll=chi-news-hed me too. My building also seems to have the laziest most non-existant security ever.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 08:37 PM) Well, Rock, we need it from somebody. That's the problem. We need it from somebody. The whole idea behind this "competition" was that someone would prevail as a LOOGY to come in and get those left-handers out. Cotts is far better at getting right-handers out than left-handers. If you're looking for inning-eaters, I think you're looking in the wrong place. Where's the LOOGY? To be honest with you, I dont think we need one. We didnt have one last year, becaues Cotts and Polite both get LH batters out. At this point we need a mop up reliever in the same roles as Marte and Viz.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 08:00 PM) I don't really know just yet. I don't think I'd feel comfortable sending him out there against Travis Hafner in the seventh inning in a night game at US Cellular Field. Thats not what we need from him. We need him to eat up innings that we dont wants cotts and polite pitching, that is all.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) OUCH. Labrum problems are the worst. I've never gotten over mine and it always comes back. On Tribune Live they said the doctor that the Cubs sent Prior to is an elbow specialist. hahahaha Everyone on the show is making fun of the Cubs. They gave Lee and MRI and it said there was wear and tear on the rotator cuff and labrum.

On the plus side, our young Of'ers are looking pretty damn good, even Borch.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 02:06 PM) OK, lets say he stops being a um 'pussy' and pitches throught it, f***s up his arm, goes under the knife and is lost for the year. Then he'll be called a selfish prick for not having spoken up about the discomfort he felt in March. I'm not a Prior fan either but c'mon people. Its pretty obvious that this has been going on longer than in March. The cubs were blaming his setbacks on a cold he had in december. They kept saying that he is coming along slowly. What exactly was he recovering from? I guess we found out. This guy has had problems all offseason. Also I guess DLEE has labrum problems in his left shoulder.

Game Ova rocks win.

wow, 4 straight doubles. Ive never seen that before.

QUOTE(SouthsideBlitz @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 04:23 PM) That was a Bomb! Homer anywhere else. he didnt even get all of it, that boy is strong.

Jenks needs to grow a beard. Seriously.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 11:05 AM) I guess its time to buy some property in NM then - its dirt cheap right now (except in the richie-rich Santa Fe and Taos areas). Anyone want some desert? You KNOW im in. We can sit on the porch watch the ocean form and discuss the shortcomings of gload and borchard.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 11:13 AM) Where did I say everything is a-ok? You're going to have a tough time finding it. I said it is not as serious as fathom made it out to be in his first post, as has been corroborated by all of the stories last night and this morning. Ozzie is talking about a Plan B because the reporters asked him what he would do if Pods was out opening day. That has no bearing on how serious it is. He wouldn't be a good manager if he didn't have a plan for most any situation. But hey, if you want to believe it's more serious and Pods arm is going to fall off, go for it. Ignore all the facts and tell yourself otherwise. Makes no difference to me. Well, a statement just came out today that said it was the muscle and not the joint, which means its just a strain. I would not call this a serious issue.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 10:54 AM) I wonder how the landscape of this country, literally and figuratively, would change if a large lake or sea suddenly opened up in NM and TX. I dont know, but im sure real estate would be awesome there. It would be the new california.
