Milkman delivers

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) I refuse to believe that whole scene was ever mostly about the music. It wasn't. It was about smoking a bong or eating some shrooms. Those friends I referred to tried to make me listen to that garbage more than once, and I felt like ramming my head into the wall because of how terrible it was. They had some songs that were good, but they had like 500 bad ones for every good one. 500 might be low-balling it, too.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) He means your avatar, and I, too, laugh each and every time I see it. It has to be one of the best avatars around, not to mention one of the single funniest moments of the fourth season. Anyone else want to see Boomer get bounced out in the second inning? 1.2 IP 6ER would look mighty nice tonight. I actually meant the larbage part. That line cracks me up, but Gary the Cougar was great, too. That's great.

QUOTE(bmags @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:46 PM) Jerry Garcia was NOT that great of a songwriter...he has his moments, but their music did not rely on their lyrics He relied heavily on the use of illegal substances both for himself and his fans. That's honestly the only way you can enjoy that garbage. I had a few friends that really liked him, needless to say they were all burn outs. And I agree with almost all of your list. Very nice.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:47 PM) Fair enough. Please refer to me as Mr. Pessimist, thanks Anyways, wouldn't it be nice to see the Indians lose a game or two, especially when down 5 runs late in the game? Don't worry, they'll have their nice little slide and you'll feel all better.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:42 PM) When I say this, I get bashed cause I'm the board pessimist. However, it's exactly the point I've been trying to make, and everyone planning the postseason roster and when to start benching starters is getting a little ahead of themselves. One good thing is that the A's and Angels have a lot more games against each other this season, so it would make the wild card lead even more for the Sox (in the extreme circumstance that the Indians were to catch the White Sox). Please, if you're the board pessimist, then I'm the vice-pessimist. And not even I am threatened by the Indians anymore.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:39 PM) My point is this - we lose 3 or 4 games on them in August and suddenly they're only 8 or 9 back with 6 games left to play against us and a MUCH, MUCH easier schedule otherwise... What's our record against Cleveland this year? Like 10-3? I'm not too scared of having to play them.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:31 PM) This trade will likely all revert back to whether or not the Reds ownership wants to trade Griffey Jr. I'm not sure why everyone thinks they'll change their mind about 2 weeks after saying no to the trade the first time. Maybe they heard the collective "WHAT THE f***?!" from the Reds fanbase when they heard they could've traded Griffey and didn't?

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:32 PM) You calling my sig larbage or something? Whose can is it? WHOSE CAN IS IT?!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) I'm sure you'll get bashed for this, but I completely agree with your post. The Indians are swinging the bats great right now, and their bullpen isn't blowing games left and right like they did last season. If they're able to win 80 pct of their games against Tampa and KC the rest of the way, they could definitely make a substantial run at our division lead. Remember when Cleveland had that great run about a month ago where they won like 10 straight and gained about 2 games? They looked good then, too. But, they suddenly went into the crapper and fell far out again. I suspect they'll do the same here.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) Guess it's too early to find out the lineups huh? I giggle like a school girl every single time I look at your sig.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:23 PM) Milkman was being sarcastic! Thanks for covering for me. Just a little mental lapse, most likely. I think it's pretty obvious that I'm sarcastic most of the time.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 03:38 AM) Anyone who would argue against John Lennon/Paul McCartney is an idiot. Honestly, I would have just voted for either one of them alone, but to put them together... there is no comparison. Johnny and Paully... amazing. PS, George Harrison put together 2 of the best Beatles songs ever written.... "Something" + "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah f***ing genius.

If I learned one thing from my English teacher in senior year, it's that Jim Morrison is the greatest song writer ever. You'd be hard-pressed not to find a deeper meaning in any lyric he ever wrote. Oh, and Ray Manzarek went to my HS.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:00 PM) http://www.suntimes.com/output/deluca/cst-spt-deluca122.html Thoughts? I personally don't think it's too bad of an idea. Though i'd wait until we get back home after this weekend. Yeah, get the tougher games out of the way first, then DL him.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 11:45 AM) Most people think we can get any player for guys like Baj, Borchard, Adkins, and J. Burke. Um, Jeff Bajenaru is quite possibly the greatest minor league reliever in baseball. I don't know why the f*** you're including him in that response.

Guys, I don't think we should give up any prospects at all for possibly one of the greatest baseball players ever.

Haha. Sorry, Shingo.

Has Adkins even pitched since he hit one of the Blue Jays?

Did anyone go to Edwardsville (aka POS school whose hick refs won their games for them)?

I still have "The Rainbow Connection" on my computer. That song always makes me feel good, no matter what the case.

I only watch Sci-fi when they have marathons of cheesy, made-for-TV movies that attempt to be scary, but just make you laugh at how cheap it is and the occassional actor that you can recognize shows up.

It's like we're asking to get swept by the Red Sox.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 02:24 PM) Go back to you're game thread There's no game today. And I used the green font like you told me to do. It was a joke, jeez.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) green fonts. use it. Well, if it's plural as in fonts, then I would have to use them, not it. Nebraska education.
