I want to seriously injure Brendan and Rachel. Nobody should ever be the way that they are.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 4, 2011 -> 11:23 AM) Hey, maybe we could work something out with the Sun Times. They love that kind of stuff! Pulitzer prizing winning news paper.

I just sent him a lengthy letter expressing my disappointment in his reporting. I dont think its excusable to be that sloppy working for a site like ESPN, although as we've seen this summer, they can report unsubstantiated stories with zero proof or fact behind them.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 4, 2011 -> 09:54 AM) Well someone has to actually look at reality when it comes to Tebow. The Broncos' beat reporters in Denver are admitting Tebow isn't even close to Orton in practice, and honestly is getting beaten out by Brady Quinn. So now Hoge is an ass because he is pointing out that Tebow lacks any actual NFL quarterbacking skills? Preachers vs reality. Tebow isnt the best QB in camp, but pointing that out makes you an ass.

Lion is running very slooooooowwwwwww for me. And apps seem to freeze up when quit. Not impressed so far but I'm sure a patch will come out eventually.

Everyone shoot him an email, that will get his attention. I run into Ozzie Jr fairly frequently in my neighborhood and I will make a point to discuss this with him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 12:46 PM) One of my friends who uses Mac's heavily hated it and went back to Snow Leopard within about a week. Its different at first until you tweak it. For macbooks it has an ipad-like touch interface and all macs now get a ipad-like launching menu for apps. Outside of that its not all that different IMO.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 12:20 PM) So is it worth upgrading to Lion? Took me forever to get into Snow Leopard...I don't use a lot of the advanced functionality of the OSX, just because I am too lazy to learn how. I know it's only $30 or something, but is it worth the trouble? Its pretty good, definitely better on a macbook because of the "ipad-like" touch functionality.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 2, 2011 -> 11:27 PM) He's just a really good pitcher. The trade has never seemed worse than it does this week. He is pretty good. I still think his mechanics are going to be his undoing as his shoulder tears apart.

QUOTE (lord chas @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 11:54 AM) yeah if he couldnt get it done with the jets with rex ryan giving him multiple chances hes not getting it done anywhere He was good in college matching up favorably with several NFL players including Jake Long, however I think he may have been juicing. OSU runs a 3-4 primarily and his role was straight pass rushing, something the Bears dont really do.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 11:53 AM) She seems to have the adult film star look going. I don't think she looks fake though, other than the boobs obviously. She pretty damn hot, although it wont last long. You know that was the "public appearance" he had to give her in order to keep banging her in private. I'm sure she f***s like a machine.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 09:47 AM) Yeah that girl is so faking looking. Looks like fake breasts, fake (or way too much time in the sun) tan and the like. Hey, if that's what JT likes, so be it. But I prefer natural-looking women. I dont thnk so at all. And being that she is a latina, not sure where the Jessica Simpson references above come from.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 09:32 AM) Cheap Tablet. Anybody own one? I was going to buy my daughter a portable dvd player for the car. The kind that just attach to the head rest. I figure instead of spending 100 - 125 on that, maybe I can get a cheap tablet that she can have some interaction with, as well as watch movies. I certainly don't want a 200-400 tablet for a kid, but if I can get one for 150 or less, it's close to what it would cost for a dvd player and there's more she can do with it. Is it feasible to watch movies on a tablet? Is the battery life decent? Anybody have any ideas? Buy a DVD player. The "cheap" tablets are less than 200 but are made like crap.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 11:32 AM) I agree with you, but we know the Bears. They are counting on Akoye, Gholston, Adams, and Wooten to step up, regardless of whether it is warranted or not I think they will find out shortly that Gholston sucks balls.

Apparently my boy Sanzenbacher has been impressing coaches with his hands and route running. I think he'll see the field quite a bit this season.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 10:53 AM) Yup, if you're not going to spend that money in other areas, then you may as well pay that money in the area you are willing to pay for. But I think the Bears will be to cheap anyways to do this type of move. We may need to continue to strengthen our D-Line to match up with other teams in our division. This would be a very smart move.

Where is the highlight of Bulls guard John Lucas dropping 60? "I am......on the bench"

Thats awesome and all, but someone needs to fire the "And 1" announcer guy. He's the reason I used to put those shows on mute.

Morel will hit, I think its obvious that he will come around. I dont think he'll ever be a top hitter for this club, but certainly can peak like Joe Crede with a slightly higher avg and less power. Rios's stance is one of the worst I've ever seen. He completely takes his lower body out of the swing. Thats why he can only pull the ball, he has zero rotation and torque. Bottom line is Greg Walker needs to be let go as does Ozzie. This team has tuned them both out and its time for a fresh voice. I wouldnt mind showing KW the door and letting Hahn and Buddy Bell run this franchise.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 09:23 AM) ESPY after the ESPN awards show or Cecil ESPY former major leaguer, lol? I believe after ESPN. His other dog is Ribby after RBI. They are f***ing cute boxers.

On After Dark last night:

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 09:06 AM) I know. I wonder if him & RBI will enjoy Canada. Are they dog friendly up there? He really should get traded to San Diego for the dog beaches.

I wish she would have posted as Espy instead.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 08:52 AM) Seems to me from his reaction to the first question that now he wants an extension beyond 2012. LOL, he is more likely to get a kick in the ass on the way out the door when we deal him to the Marlins in the offseason for a bag of baseballs. Good luck Ozzie, your time has run out here in Chicago. I really liked your fire and personality as a manager but your decision making, pigheadedness and family dramatics led to your demise. Thanks for 2005, now beat it. Ozzie better be gone after this season. This team is massively underachieving and has zero energy. They've even said it themselves that they have a tough time getting up for games.

The Indians mortgaged a little of their future on a non-contending team. Good for us.
