Well, I was wrong - I predicted HHH. Oh well. Orton sucks but the Rumble itself was great. Matt's turn on Jeff was awesome, and that match at WM should be killer. Mania card?: Orton/Cena Edge/HHH Matt/Jeff HBK/JBL Taker/Big Show That's pretty sweet. You'll have a great time, Greenman - I've been to two of them. Don't miss the ROH shows while you're there.

Heard a MAJOR spoiler about a heel turn tonight - I won't spoil it here tho. It's on Pwinsider.com if you care. We'll discuss after.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jan 23, 2009 -> 04:56 AM) BB just wasn't all that good, imo. A decent movie, sure, but 13 Oscar nominations? I could see Slumdog taking best picture. The ending was ultra-cliche, but the other 99% of the movie was really good. It was Bollywood! What did you expect from the ending?

What would be great is if Christian wins the Rumble and goes after Jeff, revealing he's the one who's been behind all the attacks. Orton gets fired but "injures" Cena leading John to demand a match at WM.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Jan 20, 2009 -> 01:12 PM) The court system found them guilty and imposed a sentence. Those of us that live, work, and play in this area are nervous about agents that may feel empowered to shoot at will. The court system found them guilty on the testimony of a drug smuggler who said he wasn't packing. These are the he said-he said situations where you have to believe the officers' side of the story imo. As a lib who has followed this case fairly closely, I'd like to congratulate Bush for getting one right. He should've pardoned them, but a commutation will do for now.

Ugh, how many times have we seen that? Yecchh. Triple H wins the Rumble, Orton gets fired next week by Steph but figures a way back before No Way Out, wins the Elimination Chamber and there you go. (I guess that works for either guy, and that's what's wrong with the storylines- the wrestlers are interchangable.)

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jan 21, 2009 -> 02:06 PM) Orton's winning the Rumble. Put money on it. It wouldn't shock me to see that the Vince getting punted was Stephanie's idea as an angle. Nope. Triple H is winning it. HHH/Edge at Mania. Jeff will lose it and face Christian. Last heel winning the Rumble was Vince in 1999.

That new Star Trek just looks awful. Ben Stiller/Starsky and Hutch BAD.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 12:51 AM) Saw Slumdog today. It was decent. I didn't like the end however. It was good but not great. What didnt you like about it? It was my fav movie of 2008 (so far). It just seemed after all the crap the kid went through (even literally!) that the ending was way deserved.

Lyon had 26 saves last year but with a 4.70 ERA. 07 was his best year, posting a 2.68 ERA in 74 innings.

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 28, 2008 -> 11:18 AM) Are you seriously suggesting that Thome should to go back to 1B? No, not really, but isn't suggesting Dye of similar ilk?

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 28, 2008 -> 09:21 AM) I would assume that Dye or Fields would be; depending on how Viciedo does in Spring Training. Thome? In what world does Dye play 1B at the major league level? What are people thinking?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 23, 2008 -> 09:33 AM) BTW, since we are discussing CF's in the Angels thread... Has anyone seen Figgins play CF? He hasn't played there with Hunter around, but, he played a fair amount of games there in years past. How is he out there? He's good in CF. I had season tix for the Angels one of the years he played CF almost exclusively.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Dec 20, 2008 -> 06:32 PM) Than that would be a hell of a deal for us... if it was just Figgins than no way! Im guessing Figgins goes to LF and Quentin goes to RF if such a deal would happen? Figgins can play CF. We'd have to sign someone to play the other corner spot - Abreu? Personally, I think they should just trade for Vernon Wells.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 19, 2008 -> 07:47 AM) No, the Red Sox are calling his bluff. They won't go over 8 years and over $22 million per season. I think $160-170 will be the range for the final number. They're going to sit back and wait for TEX to decide between the Angels (wrong coast, how much does he like the tightly-controlled Scioscia atmosphere) and playing on the Red Sox, unless the Yankees throw money at him at the last second....I just can't see him pulling an A-Rod and going to BALT or WASH just because of pure dollars, but, then again, he's a Boras client. Stranger things have happened. I can't even imagine the White Sox paying Pujols $22 million at this point. Tightly controlled Scioscia stmosphere? Are you kidding? Mike is one of the most laid-back managers ever - he's the anti-Ozzie, if anything.

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 15, 2008 -> 02:16 PM) Rock knows what he's talking about. I was just teasing him about not knowing who it was.

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure.......

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 15, 2008 -> 01:36 PM) I think you'll see a signing by the Sox by thursday at the latest. spoilers please?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 15, 2008 -> 08:44 AM) I don't believe Logan ever had regenerative powers like a gecko when it loses it's tail or whatever. If a limb or part of a limb is gone, his healing factor can't regrow it... rather his healing factor is just a super accelerated form of any human's ability to heal. This made him a possibility for the Weapon X Project because he would heal quickly. He does have regenerative powers like a gecko. Wolvie has completely rebuilt parts of himself from almost nothing before. Has anyone seen The Wrestler? I'm supposed to see it tonight.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Dec 12, 2008 -> 10:55 AM) am i and your dad the other two? Electric Circus rules! Common's best album.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 9, 2008 -> 11:32 AM) From what I've read it's a big step back lyrically. Lyrics are vastly overrated.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 11, 2008 -> 09:42 AM) Lets put it this way: There are two holes on this team right now, Leadoff/CF and a 4th starter. One will be filled via trade, one via FA. If Dye has to be traded to get pitching, then his spot will be filled via FA as well. So second base isn't a hole?

Stern is still the best.

Disagree - I think Borat is one of the best films of the last 10 years. It's too bad you didn't get it. anyone see any of the art movies they're talking about for Oscars?
