QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 26, 2009 -> 09:28 PM) Agree. I like em as well and hope they do not split them up anytime soon. Now that I've spoken up and said I liked a tag team, they'll naturally break them up soon. That happens to me a lot.

2001 World Series
I remember watching that World Series vividly. I was extremely into it, and definitely rooting for Arizona. The series as a whole was incredible, with momentum swinging back and forth constantly. The Yankees winning in New York was very cool, especially since the series ended up going in favor of the Diamondbacks. That last game...whew!

You know what I hate?
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 26, 2009 -> 02:28 PM) The health club post: - Guys who do everything naked in the locker room (shave, blow dry hair, etc). - The creepy guys who seem to be in the locker room (sometimes naked) for hours. They'll be hanging around when you get there and still be putzing around in the locker room after you work out and shower. - People who don't bring a towel to wipe equipment after they use it. - People who just sit on one machine and take 5 minutes in between sets. - Women who look like they're dressed up to go to a night club with their hair all done up and tons of makeup. - People who are only there to get phone numbers/hook up. - The New Year's resolution crowd that overcrowd the gym for the first 3 weeks of every single year. Does that count for people wearing sweatpants?

That was a pretty good Royal Rumble, in the sense that it was old fashioned. There were about 15 guys in the ring at once, which is how it should be. My only problem with Royal Rumbles is that there is never a surprise winner, not even somewhat surprising. Each time the event comes around, there is a choice between 3 or 4 guys that you know will have to win. WSB, Undertaker was in the event tonight. I'm not sure he was even gone recently.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 25, 2009 -> 06:10 PM) I am the most hungover of all. I think it's actually kind of annoying when people talk about being hungover, but it makes the person feel so much better and the hangover less intense. Anyways, 2 beers and 2 Jag bombs before going downtown, 3 beers to go along with 3 pitchers between 3 guys, a little less than half a liter of Jag, and mass vomiting later in the night. Ouch. Which downtown are you speaking of?

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 23, 2009 -> 12:37 PM) ....you, sir, must have somehow missed the Gin Blossoms Revolt of 1994....it was NOT pretty.....no one was spared, and women and small children looked on in abject terror....all who admitted or were found out to enjoy the Gin Blossoms' music were herded into a large stadium.....they were tortured in unmentionable fashion (and also in a few mentionable fashions, which will go unmentioned here, ironically).....the lifeless bodies of the Blossomites were then made into a mealy paste and fed to the few surviving Blossomers, while Found Out About You played on a loop.....if the human gruel didn't kill them, the forlorn melody did.....this dark moment in American history has been stricken from history books and news archives, and rightly so.....remembrance of this horrible display could only lead to repetition, and the torture of Hinder fans, 3 Doors Down aficianados, and followers of The Wallflowers would surely follow. ....I pray to a merciful God daily that I didn't remember....dammit, I wish I could forget..... This is the funniest thing I've read on here in months.

Jeff Kent To Retire
QUOTE (ptatc @ Jan 22, 2009 -> 02:23 PM) i agree that he is not a HOF. He did have the one MVP so he gets consideration. Alot of the argurment for him is that he has great HR production for a 2B or was one of the best 2B of his time. The HOF is for the absolute best players, not for the top 10 2B or best 3B. People should not look at his performance compared to other 2B but to the performance of the absolute best players. Performance includes defense as well as offense. Just like with the stats of today, I think there is far too much emphasis on offense and too much comparing by position. The HOF is for the absolute best players not the best of each position. the only question that needs to asked is "is he one of the best PLAYERS of all time not is he one of the best 2B of all time." I will get down from my soapbox now and let the next person take a shot. No it's not. Look at the Hall Of Fame. There's plenty of mediocrity in there. Jeff Kent is a Hall Of Famer.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 22, 2009 -> 08:16 PM) Come on as soon as I saw a preview for Benjamin Button I knew it would be a best picture nominee. Those types of epic, many scenes thru-time pieces always do well in the academy. The reader was awful, though. The Reader or Slumdog Millionaire will take home the award. I've heard The Reader is bad, but it's about the Holocaust, to my knowledge. That alone will buy it a very good chance at the Oscar.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 22, 2009 -> 10:04 PM) If all I say is "hey" or "hi" then an almost imperceptible "hi" or even just a nod will do, but when someone completely ignores me and stares straight ahead I want to slap them. Agreed. I also don't like Led Zeppelin.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 05:49 PM) I didn't expect this at all...still hoping AZ gets back on top. I hate the Eagles. This stadium has a reputation for great games. Now the terrible defense of the Cardinals has to just NOT let up a TD. That seems like a lot to ask for right now. Maybe McNabb will just throw in the towel, like he did in the Superbowl.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 10:35 AM) Saw Revolutionary Road yesterday. Not good. The movie is American Beauty with less interesting characters and worse story telling. Last week I saw Tropic Thunder and Pineapple Express. PE was decent, but nothing special. Tropic Thunder was god-awful. About a month ago, I decided I was going to see all of the movies that are getting consideration for Best Picture and Best Actor. The only exception is Revolutionary Road. The preview did absolutely nothing for me, and it looked extremely boring.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jan 18, 2009 -> 02:08 AM) I worked at a movie theater for 5 years, Northgate on North and 53. I basically saw every movie that came out for those 5 years if we didn't have it we would trade with other theaters and run midnight shows. It's weird when you see that many movies. I've gone into a movie freeze the last 2 years only seeing a few. Milk, you feel that way? I just stopped enjoying movies because you just see everything? Also, watched "Gone Baby Gone" the other night for the first time. Very good acting in that movie. Ben is getting way over knobbed for that movie. I thought the directing was poor. I did enjoy it, except I thought Kasey's characters decision was the easy one to make, so I wasn't torn as other people were. With all that said, good movie, worth watching I haven't gotten tired of seeing movies. Not yet, at least.
