Milkman delivers

The constant jabs at NBC almost makes this worth it.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 08:33 PM) Even though I think Letterman sucks, I really hope he beats Leno in the ratings when Leno returns to doing The Tonight Show. It would be hilarious and typical of NBC's f ups as a network. I can see Leno's ratings take somewhat of a hit due to people intentionally avoiding it because of this. I'm sure a lot of people watched Leno (or at least parts of it) before Conan came on, and I bet a good deal of those people will be sure to catch absolutely none of Leno.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 07:25 PM) I used your favorite adjective Haha, gotcha. EDIT: Actually, I think that's an adverb.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 07:02 PM) Perfectly performed...sorry Milkman. Hm?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:34 PM) Don't you have internet access? Hm, I thought I tried to do that before and didn't get a clear answer. Got it this time, though. And it turns out that I (and everyone I know, for that matter) have been wrong about classifying second and third cousins, cousins once removed, etc.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:55 PM) Honestly Milkman i'm doing exactly that. I don't want it to happen, but i can't help but think that it just might. I'm trying not to. The more I see and hear it talked about, the more I come to grips with it. And I don't want to do that.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:49 PM) I think we can win with Jones as our DH. I just don''t think we should have to chance it. There's no reason to have to gamble on lightning in a bottle for a position that we absolutely need results from. A gamble makes sense if we're talking CF, but we need power, and we need results. Ugh, I don't even like to see that in writing. It's like we're already preparing ourselves for the inevitable outcome that he'll be starting for us.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:47 PM) Ahh, yes, that possibility excites me as well. Don't get me wrong, I love Thome. He's a great person and was one hell of a baseball player. I'm just tired of seeing him out there and I don't think he's the same player he once was.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:46 PM) So you'd honestly not have him on the team and go with what we have? I'm hoping there's another option, such as a trade.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 03:24 PM) I don't know about that. The issue with the team as currently constructed is our DH is a rather weak platoon situation. I would have rather given Flowers a few starts a week at the catcher position and a few starts a week at the DH position, because I think he could probably help the team more than giving the PAs to some of the other guys on this roster. Instead, this means Flowers will be in Charlotte or traded, and more PAs will be taken by the likes of Nix, Kotsay, and Castro than I will enjoy. OR, KW could make the obvious move and go out and sign Thome now. I'd be disappointed. I would be very disappointed.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 02:51 PM) 13.5 inches? Is that noodle or stick? I gotta be honest. I would have thought the biggest one in the world would be bigger.

Conan is handling this in a very classy manner. Good for him. I'm sure he'll end up on another network soon enough.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 12, 2010 -> 02:49 PM) Best I got is a Disney Imagineer who is a 2nd cousin, or first cousin once removed... i forget which. Can someone explain the difference between these two for me? I've wondered this for years.

I find this weird. I can't find a woman attractive if I know she's elderly or dead now.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 9, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) I read a similar review on Screenrant.com. They said the action seemed forced and the storyline was just meh. However they did indicate that the brothers who directed the movie had a lot of promise If that was their first movie, then yes, they do.

It's weird to think that she's almost my age. It feels like she's much younger from having seen her mostly when she was younger. Another girl that fits that description, and is hot now, is Michelle Trachtenberg.

Saw Daybreakers. It was ok. Not too much was special about it, and the ending worked out a little too neatly.

For me, it's more like I have teams that I specifically root against.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 6, 2010 -> 02:08 PM) How the hell is Alomar not a 1st ballot hall of famer. He is the greatest 2nd baseman of all time. He spit in an umpire's face. I don't agree with it, but his appearance to the media is the reason.

I didn't find the Tenacious D movie that funny. I really like School Of Rock and Kung Fu Panda, though.

It makes you wonder what kind of year Cliff Lee will have. I mean, it could be ridiculous.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 5, 2010 -> 08:16 PM) absolutely Top 10 similar pitchers according to baseball-reference.com 1. Roger Clemens (850) 2. Tom Glavine (829) 3. Tom Seaver (824) * 4. Bob Feller (798) * 5. Jim Palmer (791) * 6. Lefty Grove (788) * 7. Bob Gibson (778) * 8. Steve Carlton (759) * 9. Mike Mussina (756) 10. Bert Blyleven (752)

Think he's a hall of famer?

Their new GM is doing a great job.

Good, I thought for a minute something might not happen.
