QUOTE (Wanne @ Aug 10, 2008 -> 01:34 AM) He really didn't get much of a shot. I think he's still in the plans though...or at least part of a package. Boone just pissed away his chance this year which is really sad because he started the year so strong. He just seemed to turn into a mental midget moper when a few things went wrong. On a side note...I still haven't been thrilled with some of the pitch selections when he was throwing either. With his high amount of walks lately, hitters were sitting on his fastball. Logan couldnt spot his junk at all, so he was basically batting practice for the last two months. Sometimes it seems like the catcher is calling a bad pitch in a bad spot etc., but this is totally on Boone. He has been giving up hits to both lefties and righties, and walking people as well, just not a good combo.

Can Boone be done for the year now too?

QUOTE (Steff @ Aug 9, 2008 -> 08:44 AM) I thought I read somewhere that Robin will not be part of the movie franchise again. Im pretty sure that was Chris Nolans decision with his vision of the movies. if another director took over Im sure he would have that option if he wanted it. I just cannot see Christian Bale/Bruce Wayne adopting any kid. Its an awkward story to interject on the Batman plot at any time though.

QUOTE (retro1983hat @ Aug 9, 2008 -> 07:39 PM) How is a guy a professional athlete, come over to America on a raft and be so ridiculous looking every ground ball to the first baseman. I feel bad he got hurt, but why is he so uncoordinated? didnt he defect after an international game by staying behind? I dont think Contreras floated over to the US

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 9, 2008 -> 06:33 PM) People here arent upset enough about this I totally would have preferred Contreras over Vazquez in one playoff game. More of a big game pitcher. And frankly, just a better yr so far than Vaz. Which is not saying much, I know. How upset would you like us to be? Im sure everyone would love the option of having a healthy contreras vs a healthy vazquez in the playoffs, but it doesnt matter. Contreras is done People are discussing replacements here, not laughing because Contreras is done for the year

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:29 PM) Link. Giles has vetoed the deal already

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 9, 2008 -> 08:25 AM) I'm no Batman aficionado or anything but any chance the accountant at Wayne Enterprises winds up becoming Robin? He already knows Bruce is Batman and Bruce saved his life. Just a thought I had as I decomposed the movie. Good lord I hope not. That would be franchise suicide in the eyes of fanboys everywhere. Besides, Robin is a Carny, not an accountant

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 11:10 PM) How does no one see this hapenning? http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/08/08/pot.er...tml#cnnSTCVideo

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 09:57 PM) Finally saw it tonight at Navy Pier. What a fantastic movie. Easily one of my top 3 action flicks of all time. IMAX?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 09:40 PM) Well, it seems like there are some pretty legit concerns that both Crede and Linebrink might be out for the rest of the season...from everything we're hearing and NOT hearing. Who would have thunk that Juan Uribe and Alexei Ramirez would be two very key starters in our infield...and that they'd be leading the White Sox in the heat of a pennant race in August? Juan really looks relaxed out there now. He is contributing nicely and I like to see him succeed, it just sucks that he has to be benched to show how decent-good he can be. Alexei just amazes me, the guy just doesnt stop. Every time I think he has met his match and pitchers are going to start doing this and that to him, he adjusts. And yet he still maintains the same aggressiveness throughout each and every at bat, he is just so much fun to watch.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 11:52 AM) Yes, if he was threatening all of them or as someone said, the driver, and they were all in danger i can see the correlation and i'd agree people would probably band together to protect themselves. But with this stroy, at the point when everyone would have realized what was going on, it was too late for the victim. I just cant see, or justify, putting yourself and others at risk to approach a psychopath with a knife just to prevent him from mutilating the body. That may seem callous, but the guy was already dead, at this point there isnt anything anyone can do. And I understand this. Im not arguing any of it. I am just saddened by the situation, thats all

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 11:44 AM) That is entirely different and i dont think that analogy really works well here. I see what he is saying though. A bunch of people with their lives in danger trapped in a public transportation vehicle. If he was threatening all of them and they had no way to leave the bus, it would be a better analogy. As the stories stand though, it doesnt fully apply. but not totally offbase

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 07:24 AM) I just gotta add, that down 2 runs and only 1 out you do NOT send Thome to make the second out at the plate that inning. That is bad base coaching. That was so insanely dumb, and I am pretty sure Cox knew it as soon as Thome turned the corner. You could see him saying "stupid, stupid" to himself after the play. I dont knwo what the heck he was thinking. Cox waved his arm as Raburn fielded the ball, it wasnt like the ball was still skipping around

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 11:54 PM) Yeah, it's a classic scene with two screen giants. Only after watching it for a second time do you realize the significance of Hopper asking for a cigarette during that conversation. The reason I like it so much is Hoppers confidence in what he is saying, and Walken clearly getting riled up by it, but keeping a smile on his face. And the cigarrette is awesome too, a man waiting for the firing squad with a cig in his mouth.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 07:02 AM) Danks already did add a splitter...? That's the big difference in him from this year and last, the fact that he can attack the strike zone at will now and keep hitters off balance. I recall Fields commenting on the fact that he couldn't hit Danks's new splitter in ST. But if he could add another bailout pitch, that wouldn't hurt of course. So many jokes, so little space

QUOTE (Texsox @ Aug 8, 2008 -> 07:41 AM) The goal is to stop him from hurting anyone else. They accomplished that goal. By any sort of direct man to man confrontation, you increase the likelihood that someone else would be hurt. If there was someone trapped in the bus with him, then by all means grab some weapons and get going. Defiling the body? If it's me being defiled, please do not risk your life to save my corpse. Just be a great witness at the prosecution and make sure the guy never is paroled. Like I said, Im not saying anyone SHOULD do something, and I probably wouldnt do something. Im just surprised there wasnt someone on the bus who said "There is no way Im letting this happen"

Its easy to sit back and say what you would or would not have done. In a situation so horrible, nobody can be for sure on how they would react, because some people have a "switch" in certain situations that makes them do wierd things. Seeing someone lose their life in such an awful way, and to continue to watch the killer defile the body would be a lot for anyone to take. I am surprised one of those people didnt take a crowbar or wrench and go after him. Im not saying thats what they should have done, but there is always a hero or someone who feels like they need to do something in a situation like that. I understand the "he is already dead, save yourself" mentality. It is just sad to think about for me that these people had to stand by while this guy butchered an innocent person for no apparent reason

Well, he doesnt look like he is going by political party. He just doesnt seem to like politics in general

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 11:59 PM) He had a knife....and he was sawing some guy's head off......and he was eating him. Would you f*** with him? I dont know what I would do. Thats why its so scary.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 10:31 PM) So many great lines in that film, but it contains my all time favorite: Walken: "Do you know who I am?" Hopper: "I give up, who are you?" Walken: "The anti Christ. You get me in a vendetta kind of mood and you can tell the angels in heaven you've never seen evil so singularly personified as in the face of the man who killed you." I think that whole discussion between the two of them is awesome, but due to the graphic racist nature of the end of the conversation, I will not quote it for anyone.

I have a griffin Itrip that is now 4 years old, and only in the last 3 months has it given me any problems. My buddy has the itrip that is a dock that you plug into your lighter and he loves it. They arent that cheap, they range from 40-100 bucks, but you can find them on ebay too.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:17 AM) He played on the Sox opening day, I know I was there to see him. Maybe it was not clear, but I was comparing Griffey playing his first home game, to the White Sox playing their home opener (opening day for the Sox at home). CQ was on the field that day, although Ramirez was not. The way I look at it, managers put players in a position to succeed in order to win. Griffey was facing off against a lefthander, and continued to face tough lefthanders for the rest of the game until extra innings, where he faced a nearly unhittable Rodney, he really wasnt in a position to succeed I wouldnt have minded if Griffey say vs Robertson and faced verlander, I am not of the "He is Griffey so you must play him" mindset

Danks had an absolutely filthy outside changeup to righthanders, set up by his cutter on the hands, and he used the cutter vs lefties to sneak onto the inside corner. Toby Hall called a really nice game last night, Danks looked really good out there

My friend Chesli saw it happen, she said it was horrifying
