Vancouver has crashed and burned(literally) and Boston begins their first title defense in almost 40 years. Speaking of 40 years, Jaromir Jagr considering a return to the NHL

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 11:38 AM) I really don't like Mark Wahlberg, but my brother made me realize that I like almost everything he's in. So, I don't know why I dislike him so much. I think Andy Sambergs lampooning of his tendencies in movies sums up why I dont like him for the most part. Although I loved him in the other guys. Especially the parts where he is in total disbelief at how women throw themselves at Will Ferrell

I swear I read a story exactly like this a year or so ago. Maybe at Yankee stadium or something

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 12:07 PM) arrest me please. Could this be used in court? I would think so. http://todmaffin.visibli.com/share/7y9AoY In Carbondale during the 2000 Halloween riots the police used videotape by the local tv stations as well as whatever video was submitted to them by store owners and citizens to identify the kids breaking windows/stealing/burning things etc. Im sure if they really wanted to they could use a lot of this stuff to bust people, just depends if they want to do the legwork to find them.

Ha, Kazmir is a pothead

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:57 AM) I'm on pins and needles over whether a guy that averaged 6.5/3.2/3.5 on 31 percent shooting in 20 Spanish League games will come over here. It would make sense for him to consider staying there though simply due to the labor situation. Even if he wasn't hot garbage. He was injured, I am pretty sure his numbers were affected

QUOTE (Bighurt52235 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:58 AM) I'm just throwing some names of ballplayers I haven't thought of in awhile into Wikipedia. Surprised to see that Mike Caruso just turned only 34 a couple weeks ago, and is playing independent ball in Joliet. Good times. I did that the other day, I was watching the Brewers game and they have a player with the last name Lucroy, which made me think of Ex-Twin Sox killer Matthew LeCroy. Had to see what mr Roly Poly was up to

we can go for the rarely seen 7 man rotation

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 08:28 PM) Mario Sunshine was the s***. My favorite 3d mario game. very underrated game. i really liked mario galaxy 2, i think it is my favorite one right now. its like playing the best parts of each mario game

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 06:52 PM) Mario with graphics just doesn't seem like Mario though. That would be like making an HD Atari. What's the point? The identity of Mario is 2D sidescrolling. What are graphics going to do for something so graphically limited in nature? previously mentioned mario 64, as well as mario sunshine, and both mario galaxy games are 3d, not 2d sidescrollers. personally i absolutely loved both mario galaxy games and think they could work even better if given a Little Big Planet graphics makeover

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 06:10 PM) Hey, I don't disagree with you. Nintendo's 1st party stuff absolutely destroys what any other company can bring to the table. But it is clear their 3rd party stuff has been lacking for 3 generations now. That's why I'm adamant about defending the Wii U. They seem like they are focused on getting 3rd parties back. I don't see a reason to hate on the Wii U just yet, especially when we know very little about it. But the plans seem to be in place. (and on a side not, it's hardware is looking pretty damn good too...from what little we know of it). I didnt mean it to come off as I was arguing with you, what I was trying to convey was that you are able to discuss the hardware of the WiiU in your arguments, whereas I am usually pointing at the titles. If the WiiU looks better that the PS3 and 360, albeit only for a few short years before they roll out their new consoles, that will be great for me. Honestly, the PS3 and 360 set and reset the standard, and what their finished products look like are incredible. I cannot wait to see Nintendo do something like that with one of their first party titles like Pikmin, Zelda, Mario, etc, and I cant wait to finally play a Ninja Gaiden and Darksiders game on the WiiU as well.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 05:19 PM) It's amazing how every year there's that one guy the fans want to DFA more than win games it seems. Pods one year. This year it is Juan Juan Juan. If juan wasn't here, who'd be the whipping boy? Beckham? Cause Rios and Dunn still have a lot of internet supporters. Whatever year it is, we all know that you will be sniffing out the whipping boy of the year and letting us know about it

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:22 PM) Good I was feeling a little alone in defending them. There are reasons to dislike Nintendo, but I feel people in this thread are picking the wrong ones. You guys are all about the specs and hardware, I am about playing the game, i just want it to be fun for me. There are plenty of games I love on the Wii, and I know that there are plenty of games I would love on the 360 and PS3, but I have neither the money nor inclination to go and buy all of the different consoles and games to try everything out there. The Wii was 1. cost efficient for me, 2. good for the franchise games I love(Mario/Zelda/Kart/Party/Wiiplay) and 3. a company I grew up playing that allowed me to play the games I grew up playing through the virtual console. I understand I could download an emulator and play those games, but I enjoy playing the original Donkey Kong and Pac-man and SMB1 and 3 on the Wii with my daughter. Hopefully WiiU knocks my socks off. I have reservations about it, there were plenty of moments of owning the Wii where I thought opportunities were completely missed and things could have been better, but it is what it is. Plus, nobody stole my credit card info

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 02:41 PM) I think you took more offense to that than intended. I look forward to reviews of other products, you are just the resident Nintendnerd. to that I fully admit to. I grew up on Mario and Zelda, hard to break it

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 02:01 PM) It's almost comical what to expect in this thread sometimes. Anything Nintendo will be feverishly hyped and backed by Kyle, and the rest will pretty much immediately denounce it. I, personally, don't care about the new Nintendo, as they haven't launched a system since the 64 with which I've been pleased. The PS3, save all the fun network issues lately, has been the most surprisingly updated and useful piece of video gaming technology I've ever used, so I'll probably stick with Sony. whoa, there is no feverish here. I said I was excited about it, but thats about it. I see people killing this system a year before it even hits the shelves, and it seems like people like Quinarvy are almost threatened that this system is coming and cant step over themselves fast enough to tell everyone it sucks. It very well might suck, I can accept that. Nintendo has massively disappointed me in the past, they let gravy train pass them by at the end of N64 all the way through the gamecube, and struck gold with the Wii with the casual gamer and motion controls. Now they want to appeal to the bigger market, and that is something I would love to see. There are so many things that are supposed to go into this system, I want to see what they have before I decide that I want it. But there has been no feverish about it, I have spent considerably less time defending it than cw42 and Quinarvy have done ripping it. I barely hype anything Nintendo on this board, every once in a while I will talk about a game I get that i enjoy, like Lost in Shadow and De Blob2, but nobody here cares so there isnt much of a discussion.

The Core has spoken. The WiiU has failed. lol

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 01:36 PM) If the MLE exists, the Heat are already looking at offering it to Samuel Dalembert. Oh no that means the Heat will extend their championship run past this year through 2020 because they will be unstoppable and have already won it all.............oh wait

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 11:34 AM) I don't want to get to into this because this is not in the Filibuster. I'll just say that I disagree with Ozzie on this and I don't think people are even reading the article that Sean Penn wrote. If the discussion continues, it will be moved there, so dont worry about it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 10:01 AM) Then why did you sign up for them? they tricked me and used big words

texts i never thought i would get are more like "make it bigger! viagra cheap!!!!" and "are you balding? rogaine in bulk" but yours is much better

mully said this morning that cuban dropped 110 grand at that club, 90k on one bottle of champagne

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 09:30 AM) We finally seem to have him right again. The last thing we need to do is Nick Swisher him up by trying to make him do something he isn't going to be comfortable with. the whole reason Juan Pierre is still on this team is that he is the one guy who actually has hit as a leadoff hitter on a regular basis in his career. Just like plugging Dunn into the DH spot, there are mental adjustments that go with putting someone in that spot. We don't need to screw up another player trying to do that right now. That is why Kenny isn't forcing Viciedo into the line up right now. It hasn't got anything to with the idiotic notion that somehow Pierre is being rewarded by Ozzie for sucking. It is the same idea as asking your closer to go start a game. Like I said, it isnt new to him. And i also said IF Rios has figured it out, which is not guaranteed at this point. KW isnt going to trade for a leadoff hitter, there is none available unless somehow he plans on packaging an outfielder with a pitcher, which is doubtful. Look, my scenario is one that involves Viciedo coming up. If he comes up, something has to give somewhere, and it is not going to give in the infield, and even moreso not in the starters because Peavy isnt a sure thing. Lilli isnt going to lead off because he isnt going to bump someone out of the starters spot in the OF, and to me Alexei just isnt leadoff material
