Billy Koch arrested for altercation with neighbor
Kyyle23 replied to Kyyle23's topic in The Diamond Club
I dont know why the neighbor felt the need to get a shovel to hit Koch. We all know that a regular bat works just fine -
I have to say it is very odd to let him do all of the negotiating with FA's like Hossa Kopecky and Madden, only to fire him a week or so later. How many baseball GMs would be fired after signing 3 major free agents like that, even WITH his colossal RFA paperwork screwup. Jerry Angelo basically did the same thing with Warrick Holdman and D'Wayne Bates and he didnt get fired for it. Im not saying that he didnt need to be fired, I just dont understand why they would let him carry on with his job through free agency and then give him the ax

I just wanted to share with you guys the steam cleaning experience that i had this weekend Quality Cleaners is who we used, you see their ad in the back of the flyers you get in the chicagoland area, 24.95 for a 4 bedroom house, 4.95 per room. about a year and a half ago I used stanley steamer and it was 100.00 even, so I tried QCleaners about 6 months ago, and paid 60 bucks. They came in, did the pretreating, stairs and steamcleaning for 60 bucks, which I thought was very fair considering the size of our place. This kid shows up on Friday and pulls out his reciept book and tells me "So with your signature here we can get started...." the total was 166.00! So I am like "I dont think so, you better explain this bill to me" So he says "Well, its 4.95 per room for steamcleaning, so the 3 rooms brings it to 14.95, I charge 10 percent for damage or injury(which is bull) and a 15 dollar service call fee, and (he waved his finger over the rest of the charges) said "total is 166 dollars". He didnt even explain the 100 dollar discrepency in the bill, he just waved his finger over it like that was the way it is. So I was angry at this point, but I still wanted to get at least my great room/family room steam cleaned, so I ask him how much for that. He pulls out his (broken) calculator and does a little bit of math and comes back to tell me that 1 room will cost me 87.95 to steam clean. Let me explain my great room. At the most it would be 15X10 feet. at the MOST. 4.95 for 1 room, and 82 dollars in surcharges. I felt like asking him if I had SUCKER tattooed on my forehead. I paid him his service call fee because I am not a total jerk and told him to pack his things and move on. But it didnt end there, Oh No! after he left I told my wife what happened and told her i was on my way to Lowes to rent a cleaner and do it myself, and as I am walking out the door the kid comes running up to the door (he was on the phone with his boss pretty much the entire time after I told him to leave) and he goes "I will do the ENTIRE job for 100 bucks" I just told him "Sorry man, you gave me two seperate bills, neither of which I agree with, and only now you are coming back to me when you realized that I wasnt going to just fork over the money, sorry man, not gonna do it" and I drove to menards and rented a cleaner I was livid. That kid really thought I was going to fall for it

Official 2009-2010 NBA Thread
Kyyle23 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Is it me or is it always Miami and Chicago jockeying for picks and players? I swear, it seems Pat Riley is always in a position where he is one draft pick away(rose/beasley, hinrich/wade) or is trying to get the same free agents or players the Bulls are after -
QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 08:25 AM) I thought he was also tapped to play The Flash if they ever get that production off the ground. I guess I could see Reynolds as a decent Barry Allen or Wally West, but I just don't see a lot of Hal Jordan in him. Hal had more of an edge to him, no?

Im actually curious if both Marvel and DC will allow Reynolds to play both Deadpool and The Green Lantern. I have to imagine one of the companies would jump in and ask him to choose

His 23 year old wife is the suspect. They say he was killed by being suffocated by the strap of a purse. You would think he would be able to fight off his wife if he was being choked http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/ne...tory?id=4322072

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 12, 2009 -> 10:38 AM) exactly, the MMA boards are going ape over him too, which is exactly what he wanted. Now the UFC can have him fight whoever they want and it will draw huge money, with the ultimate payoff being if they can land Fedor in the next year or so, that way if Fedor beats him he is instantly a huge star to the casual MMA fan. I enjoy this. Also, Henderson is God.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 12, 2009 -> 09:59 AM) a vast majority of that is Lesnar's WWE experience showing. He knows how much money can be in a heel champ being chased by a fan favorite contender. He is playing this up perfectly. Zuffa has to be doing back flips over him right now, they are in the position to make a ton of money with him No i loved it. The score had people calling and complaining about it, but I think brock is the heel champ everyone wanted to appear.

Even though he lacked class from start to finish, Brock Lesnar had the best post-fight interview ever.

Watching the "District 9" viral videos is cool, it reminds me of some of the propoganda "shorts" you would see on Starship Troopers.

You notice he is gone, yet you do not notice the dramatic reduction of crime in the residential Streamwood area.....

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 11, 2009 -> 11:59 PM) Nine does look neat but Tim Burton always seems to dissapoint me. How many more of these "computers/robots taking over the civilization" movies do we need? I saw the same preview fittingly before Terminator: Salvation. Bruno was OK, thought it was better than Borat, although that may change with another viewing of Borat if I ever get around to seeing it again. EDIT: Just realized you were talking about the Peter Jackson movie. Not the animated film coming out on September 9th. Burton produces, but Shane Acker directs the movie. I wouldnt worry about the movie direction because he is involved

Apparently they went to the older tombstones that were in the backside and rarely visited part of the cemetary. the bones and tombstoneswere all dropped by a backhoe in a big dumpsite that was in a hidden lot as well. Some of the bones were smashed down in their plot and double stacked with other remains, others were dug up and discarded in the mass grave. They were so careless sometimes bones would drop off the backhoe on the road they were on and they would just leave them. all of the resold plots were done strictly in cash, they are thinking about 300,000 in cash has been stolen so far

Alex Cora should be banned from playing ever again. Completely reckless on his part.
