Milkman delivers

So we can't beat the Angels. Let's hope we don't see them if we make it to the playoffs.

I was just about right on with Pippen. And there's only one idiot (unless that person just completely forgot Banks for some reason) that didn't choose Banks at all.

Hmm, whenever I hear stories about someone being killed by an animal, I usually go back to the same thought. If someone very close to me was killed by an animal, I think I'd probably kill as many of said animal as possible. I know they say you can't take revenge on nature, but I'd give it a shot.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 24, 2008 -> 01:12 PM) I fully agree. Thankfully someone agreed. I just figured there had to be a pretty good amount of people that agreed, but wouldn't say anything because of the movie's legendary status.

I think the point I'm trying to make is that this thread is not like the funniest movie thread. The idea of funny can be pretty vague and a lot of people have different views on what is funny. But, there should be about 5 sports players in Chicago history that are, without question, on everyone's list.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 24, 2008 -> 11:02 AM) Dont get me wrong,I dont think it is something that should happen but knowing this board it will probably happen.And as for Banks,considering Maddux was ranked like 16th mostly because he was a Cub I could see Banks getting lost especially with the younger voters.Remember Iam just talking about 18 out of 18 lists not where/if they are ranked. Oh, I understand. But, I still think Banks should, and will, be on all 18 lists. Maddux wasn't a lifer on the Cubs, and most don't remember him best as a Cub. Banks, on the other hand, was and is remembered as a Cub. If a young voter doesn't know who Banks is, no matter how young, they're just a f***ing idiot and shouldn't have their list counted anyway. No offense to anyone.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 24, 2008 -> 09:55 AM) I bet Banks wont and I imagine their could be a Thomas hater and leave him off their list out of spite. Out of 18 people that voted on a White Sox message board? That'd be pretty outrageous, and the person who did that should be kicked off the site. I mean that in all seriousness. And Banks should be on everyone's list, also. You can't name 20 better athletes in Chicago history, period.

I'm now watching RoboCop for the first time since I was a kid, and I must say that this movie is funnier than Caddyshack.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 24, 2008 -> 08:19 AM) Well their has to be atleast 2 that will be on 18 out 18 lists. I can think of four: Jordan, Thomas, Banks, and Payton. It also wouldn't surprise me to see Pippen on all of the lists, but he's more likely to be around 16.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 23, 2008 -> 04:02 PM) From the google: They put it behind a subscription wall, but Bill Simmons at ESPN.com addressed this question. If I recall correctly, his interpretation was that the additional bets that take place before the final shot (where Rodney Dangerfield ups the ante, and Ted Knight agrees) essentially wipe away the original bet and focus everything on the single remaining shot. Dangerfield says, "double or nothing he makes it," which doubles the original bet and focuses the bet on the final putt, not the entire game. Awesome, thanks for the answer. I honestly watched the whole thing, and I might've laughed out loud three times. And those laughs even felt forced. It was probably hilarious back in its day, but I could've watched it without even cracking a smile. It was not funny.

Also, why didn't the match end in a draw? They went into the final hole tied, the doctor missed his first putt and made the second, and then the judge hit his first shot. Chevy then missed his first shot and sunk the second, and the kid made his first shot.

So I'm watching Caddyshack for the first time, straight through, since I was a kid. And I must say, this movie isn't very funny.

I really hope people are gonna be in chat tonight. I have a 4-day weekend and I'm starting it tonight.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ May 21, 2008 -> 07:36 PM) Because he isn't jacked he isn't a top contender? Sort of, but I think it has more to do with his drastic weight loss.

Chat

QUOTE (Brian @ May 20, 2008 -> 11:21 AM) What the hell? Am I the only one that would learn their lesson after their first suspension? Jeez! Well, you know who clearly learned his lesson after his suspension? Kennedy. He looks like a lightweight now, and I can't even buy him anymore as a legitimate top contender for the heavyweight title.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 20, 2008 -> 11:09 AM) So Teddy Long or Dibiase? I thought it was pretty obvious that it would be Long. Teddy Long bores me and I really couldn't care less to see him as GM, but I'd sacrifice losing Regal as GM any day to get DiBiase on air each week.

Oh wow, that's creepy.

QUOTE (The Critic @ May 19, 2008 -> 01:13 PM) I will absolutely purchase this DVD set: -- WWE is putting together a DVD on Curt "Mr. Perfect" Hennig entitled The Life and Times of Mr. Perfect. They are currently interviewing people for the project. The two-disc set is scheduled to be released on September 9, 2008. I hope they include a TON of those "Absolutely Perfect" promos! Although I already knew they were making one for him, I'm glad to have a date for it. As you guys may assume, I'm pretty excited.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 19, 2008 -> 10:57 AM) The red band trailer is horrifying I don't even know what that means.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 19, 2008 -> 09:20 AM) "The Happening" looks like it's going to be splendid. It'll be good, until the last 15 minutes.

And now I realize that this game isn't on the Extra Innings package. Now I have no better choice than to spend time with the woman...

QUOTE (Brian @ May 16, 2008 -> 08:10 PM) Yup. Episodes will air on Direct TV first than air on NBC in the fall. I still think last season was good before being cut short despite some people thinking the story lines were outrageous. Yeah, but then again, you suck and nobody likes you.

People better be in chat because I'm going to be loaded by the time the game starts.

I echo knightni's sentiments. Only? That hardly seems like something I'd like to throw money at...I'll stick to strippers.
