Milkman delivers

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Oct 30, 2010 -> 10:35 AM) They better be wranglers. Haha, I meant to add that. We had a conversation about this last night. You have to be wearing crocs, too, as that is apparently what he was wearing in the picture.

I guarantee there will be at least 10 people at each party with a Favre jersey on and a dildo hanging out of their pants.

I actually expected Jaws to be higher than #5, but I'm glad it's right up there. It was my choice for #1 because of the effect it still has on me. I'm not scared of the water by any means, but I cannot going into any depth of water without the thought of a shark (or something) possibly being in there. That is thanks to Jaws. You know something gets to you when you think about it while in four feet of water in your backyard.

C'mon, more like King Nothing.

QUOTE (T R U @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 01:02 PM) I dunno, this was suppose to be the last one I swear they said the same thing for the previous one, too. EDIT: I could be thinking of Final Destination, but I'm pretty sure both franchises have done it.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 11:41 AM) I thought they made it illegal to do that after that trade. Really? If they did, I had no clue. Anyone know for sure?

I didn't know Javier Lopez was on the Giants, too. That makes three ex-Sox players.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 10:29 AM) Wait, what? A team can trade their manager? Yeah, the Devil Rays and Mariners swapped Lou Piniella and Randy Wynn a few years ago.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 10:48 AM) Remaking Psycho was one of the stupidest ideas ever and didn't work on so many levels. I don't even think the Peter Jackson "epic" version of King Kong was better than the original. Of course the special effects were better but it was turned into a 3 hour snoozefest with which I was bored and didn't even watch the whole thing. I totally agree with the remake of The Thing though...a way superior film to the original. I'm fairly certain that everyone thinks the same thing.

QUOTE (T R U @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 02:07 AM) Saw was pretty good, I was satisfied with how they decided to close the series out.. Until they make another one in a year.

I really liked how Dee's costume had more and more feathers on it as each person elaborated on the story. And yes, it was hilarious when it finally culminated in her being an ostrich. Dee is looking hotter and hotter to me as each season/episode goes by.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 06:05 AM) Off the top of my head I agree, although the Invasion of the Body Snatchers remake with Donald Sutherland comes close IMO. Most people also rank The Ring as better than the Japanese original (I don't), although I know that a contemporary American adaptation of an international film is not the same as the modernization of classic films that comprise most of the remakes we're talking about. What I don't get is the shot-for-shot remakes, ala' the Omen remake. Why even bother?? Money. All you really have to do is make a mediocre horror movie and release it near Halloween and you'll make a ton of money.

Scratch that. I'm going as Vijio Morganstein instead.

I love Uribe.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 11:22 AM) Kazakhstan is more my style when it comes to former Soviet republics. My God, I hate Sqwert. Lord Almighty, everyone knows that Kyrgyzstan is the money -stan. I'd also like everyone to know that I didn't have to look up the spelling.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 11:04 AM) Really it was that simple. Everyone who knows me, knows I'm a big Sox fan. Same with my wife. So, we bought some cheap Cubs shirts and hats, and went to a party like that. Aw, I expected it to be much funnier. My costume should work out very well, but I'm being someone that I know, so it's useless to explain it to anyone on Soxtalk.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 09:40 AM) I did, and I probably am, but we each watch movies with our individual eyes. To each his own, though. Overall I still enjoyed it. Glad you did too.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 10:16 AM) I went as a Cubs fan last year. I am now using the Cubs t-shirt as a cleaning rag. Expound? There has to be more to it than that.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 05:09 AM) I've heard people complain about subtitles in movies before and I've never understood why it's an issue. Obviously, there are times when subtitles are done badly (flash quickly on and off the screen or are displayed in a way that is difficult to see) - which affects everybody. Do you feel like your attention is divided? iamshack, you should check out the sequel. If you happen to be a Netflix subscriber, "The Girl Who Played With Fire" was just added to the Instant Watch list. I hate when the subtitles are in white but the background of the scene is very bright.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 01:43 PM) It's sad. I don't think we dressed up for school when I was a kid, but we came home, got in our (home-made) costumes and started Trick-or-Treating immediately. One trip through the neighborhood wasn't enough, so we'd go home, eat dinner really fast, bust out the cork, burn it, and use it to become "bums" for costume number 2. Then we'd hit the streets for round 2. Now, my kids' school and our church are doing trunk-or-treating. Pull a bunch of cars into the lot and have the adults pass out candy. Lame. My house is one of two in the neighborhood that have a big Halloween display. A few (maybe 10) others have a few decorations. The rest are dark. It sucks being a kid today. That is gay as hell. It really must suck being a kid today.

Seeing as I voted 28 Days Later the highest of anyone and it just happened to appear on the list today, it's sort of strange that I had a zombie dream last night. I don't think I've had a dream with zombies ever before.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 11:57 AM) With the Scarecrow's brief appearance in The Dark Knight, I would bet he has a big part. Since Ras Al Ghul can go from one body to the next, I think it will be him. I believe they even showed Liam Neeson closing his eyes as if to concentrate right before the train he was on crashed. That doesn't mean they won't have two again because, as you said, Scarecrow's brief appearance in the last movie would hint at his return. He just seemed like more of a petty thief in The Dark Knight, though.

QUOTE (3E8 @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 10:32 AM) Unless we move one of our higher paid players in a trade, this isn't really the case. The Sox policy is well-known, put into the team what was gained the previous year. We should expect '11 salary to remain similar to '10 ($103M) after a decline in attendance. I'll fill in the '11 roster as of today with salaries SP - Peavy 16 SP - Buehrle 14 SP - Jackson 8.75 SP - Danks 6.5 (arb estimate) SP - Floyd 5 C - empty 1B - empty 2B - Beckham 0.5 SS - Ramirez 1.225 3B - Morel 0.3 LF - Pierre 5 (after cash from LA) CF - Rios 12.5 RF - empty DH - empty BP - Thornton 3 BP - Santos 0.4 BP - Sale 0.3 BP - Linebrink 5.5 BP - empty BP - emtpy BP - empty BN - Castro 1.2 BN - Teahen 4.75 BN - empty BN - empty 2.25 commitment to Viciedo Total = $87M This leaves us less than $20M to fill starting catcher, 1B, DH, RF, three pen spots, and two bench spots. That's an average of $2M/year per remaining roster spot. If you tender a contract to Quentin, who get $5M in his 2nd-year arbitration raise, then you have less than $15M for 8 remaining spots, or less than $2M/year per remaining roster spot. KW is definitely in a tough spot this offseason given how many roster spots we have to fill and our budget constraints. We do not have plenty of money to spend, we have plenty of spots to fill How very depressing. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 27, 2010 -> 10:17 AM) And he is probably losing assloads of money on two of the three. I'd bet at least $50 million for the last season. He's a billionaire and 81-years-old. I don't think that would even matter to him.
