QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 8, 2009 -> 08:27 AM) Anyone that size is due to be a 1B within 3 seasons. You just don't have the flexibility to stay a MLB-level 3B when you're as big as that. Konerko, Thome, Pujols, Bagwell, Sheffield, Bonilla, and Palmer all moved from 3B. I dunno, he looks a lot like Adrian Beltre to me(in his build), and Beltre is one of the best 3Bs out there.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 09:16 PM) The Fisher King is another example of a very effective Williams in a more serious (if delusional) role. One of my favorite films. I love that movie, Bridges is great(as usual) as well. Thanks for the correction Santo, didnt know what I was thinking

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 10:44 AM) Tree's are evil. The one outside decided to bury its roots in my sewer pipe. It was nice having it rain in the basement as the first floor toliet overflowed when the wife was taking a shower. The only good thing, is that my plumber tells me that Downers pays for digging up my yard. What a lovely freakin day this has been. Is the tree on public property? is that why DG has to pay?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 07:48 PM) Robin Williams is very good at serious roles, if people can get past who he is. Not just One Hour Photo, but also the remake of Insomnia from a few years ago, and a smaller role in Dead Again. Also, weird movie, but that one where Williams dies and is guided into afterlife by Cuba Gooding Jr (can't recall the name of it). In Dreams. That is a really depressing movie

I expect nothing less from the man, thats all he knows. its too bad he doesnt realize that there are more than 2 college basketball teams in the world

Is KW actually watching the Dow Jones or being a jerk?
i also dont think he is being a jerk for not wanting to rush to extend these three players. Anything can happen, KW doesnt want to get saddled with a contract for a player who blew out his knee or elbow and wasnt even close to free agency

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 10:05 AM) I think Gods and Monsters is easily the best thing he's done. Ian Mckellen was outstanding in that as well. i was watching "NeverWas" the other day. It came out in 2007 I believe, starred Aaron Eckhardt, Nick Nolte, Ian McKellan, William Hurt. All of them are awesome, it is really a good movie. Ian McKellan really stood out to me

QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 09:04 AM) He got type-casted as a B-movie action star after The Mummy succeeded. Not really, he got critical acclaim for Crash I think he just knows where his bread is buttered when it comes to making money. Every couple of years he does a serious role and is actually pretty good when he puts effort into it.

QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 08:24 AM) I feel the EXACT same way about Robin Williams and Eddie Murphy. They ruined their careers wit stupid movies they made. For Robin Williams, that movie "Jumanji" was pushing it, but every other comedy movie he made after that was disaster. I think he's better at playing disturbed characters now like he did in "One Hour Photo" and when he guest starred on an episode of "Law and Order: SVU" As for Eddie Murphy, his career went down the drain after making stuuuupid movies like "Dr. Dolittle", "the Nutty Professor", "Pluto Nash", and "Daddy Day Care". The problem with Eddie is that he's trying to entertain kids now instead of sticking with golden roles like he did with "Beverly Hills Cop" and "48 Hours". He's doing too much "forced comedy" with "cute" stuff rather than real funny sitiational comedy like he did early in his career. It seems like Chris Tucker is the new Eddie Murphy nowadays, because the type of comedy that Chris Tucker did in the "Rush Hour" series is the exact type of comedy that Eddie Murphy is an expert at and should stick with. Anyone else agree? Except the only thing Chris Tucker does is Rush hour movies. One every 4 years. Thats it

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 07:10 AM) It's interesting, there isn't really one big/huge Hollywood movie star left. Cruise and Pitt, and Will Smith...but Smith's last two movies have been critical disasters, Hancock and Seven Pounds. I guess it goes in stages...we had the mini-era of Ferrell, Sandler, Jim Carrey and Mike Myers on top. I do find it hard to accept Vince Vaughn as the new "go to" guy in comedy. Well he isnt. And he hasnt been for a few years now. Right now, its the Judd Apatow/Seth Rogen crew thats dominating the comedy "market" look at Vince Vaughns last "big" movie, Four Christmases, before that Fred Claus. Not exactly groundbreaking stuff. Look at everything Apatow has touched in the last 4 years, Superbad, 40 year old Virgin, Pineapple Express, Knocked Up, even Nick and Nora did pretty well. Those guys are the "hot" ones right now if anyone is. And you cannot count Will Ferrell out either, he is still a draw, Stepbrothers, Blades of Glory, Talladega Nights all did pretty well. Mike Myers must have had his funny bone removed

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 01:50 PM) Well I dunno about that, Amare hasn't exactly played great with a big like Shaq next to him. If they could somehow keep Thomas and give up say 2 future 1st's, Noah and Gooden for Amare, they should definitely do that. But I agree that the Bulls should do what they can to get Amare. He can be the star this team hasn't had since Michael Jordan. Thats gonna be Rose. Amare will be his Pippen

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 07:47 AM) I want to very publicly apologize for my very public, unsolicited attack on BobDylan last night. I drank too much and, well, there you have it. Thanks mods for editing out the bad stuff. I do believe BobDylan (the person on this board) to be quite well educated, and in fact, think his opinions are interesting... though many times I disagree. My humble apologies, and I'll avoid clicking the Soxtalk link when that bombed again. thats not necessary, thats why we have the "i am drunk" thread

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 02:51 AM) So I got belligerently drunk and it happened in front of the girl I've been crushing on for months. Completely embarrassed myself. Like, completely. I hate myself. Really, I hate myself. Only good part is that I don't remember a second of it, but still. You can recover from this if you A: did not wet yourself or pull your pants down at any point in the evening, and B: did not crush on her. I know you probably do not remember about either one, so lets hope for you.
