QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 07:35 PM) let's see, already been 35 minutes of fluff, how much longer? they have to introduce the vagisil sponsored cup-cam, which will be attached to the hometown hero's(IROD) cup. It will provide valuable insight for Buck and something for McCarver to know nothing about.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 07:23 PM) I dare you to find me a better swing in baseball. I dare you to find a more powerful man than Pujols. That man hits homeruns that would be weak fly balls on the back of the infield by any other man.

Jeannie Zalasko just cut off Ernie Harwell while he was talking, it was so rude I cannot believe it. All I can think of is Sinatra being cut off during his lifetime achievement award. This wasnt that bad, but quite rude. BTW, Harwell looks and sounds fantastic.

Bringing back the 80's
QUOTE(TheDybber @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 05:40 PM) OT -- In Austin, Houston and San Antonio, we have the Alamo Drafthouse (www.drafthouse.com). Let me tell you, it's the best thing ever to happen to movies. They take out every other row of seats and replace it with a long table. They have beer and wine and a full menu of great food. It's dinner and a movie all in one. I can't believe more places like this don't open up. They have one art house theater and three mainstream theaters in Austin. And they do rolling roadshows and theme nights. For instance, they showed Jaws on Lake Travis where everyone was watching from innertubes. They also have a Big Night Night where they serve a full five-course meal for the movie Big Night. They always have guests speaking about their movies (Peter Bogdanovich was here two months ago). Tickets are about $7.50, but they make their money on concessions that are actually good and reasonably priced. That's the way to go. What a great way to make some money. Those are movie theatres I would go out of my way to visit. Seeing Jaws in a lake in an innertube? Genius!! It seems to be pretty vanilla around here, although if something like that exists I imagine it would cost me more than 7.50.....

What movie ending shocked you?
QUOTE(knightni @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 01:23 PM) Unbreakable was one where I got to the ending and I went... WTF?! That's just stupid! I read somewhere that "Unbreakable" was written as a graphic novel trilogy by Shyamalan. The end seemed really rushed and corny. I liked everything about that movie except for the wrap-up scene.

Bringing back the 80's
QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 02:42 PM) And the winter of the Hollywood's discontent continues... Geesh, and they sound surprised when Hollywood keeps reporting declining ticket sales, gee I wonder why?!?! :puke You can say the quality of movies nowadays is driving people away, but its way more than that. There has always been a plethora of movies that have sucked, with a scattered amount of great movies and the so-sos in between. But the advance of modern day media has made moviegoing pretty obselete. Hackers and thieves are putting full versions of movies online for download almost immediately after the movie comes out. Plus, DVDs are hitting the stores way earlier then they used to(anyone remember when you had to wait 1 maybe 2 years for a movie to come out on VHS?). Then you have the problem of paying out an arm and a leg to see a movie nowadays. Movie tickets are around 9 bucks nowadays, and refreshments are both expensive and horrible at the same time. I loathe drinking any sort of fountain drink anymore, reason being that my last experience was at a movie theater in which I had 90 percent coke syrup, 5 percent ice, 3 percent water, and 2 percent carbonation. Somebody explain to me how it is a "deal" to get 2 small drinks and one small popcorn for 11.50. Its not a goddamn deal, its a ripoff, and it has been for a long time. This is normal for movie theaters everywhere, overcharge for everything within the theater. Yet they ask why less people show up every year? Come on, people would rather wait and view these movies in the comfort of their own homes where they can eat what they want, when they want, and not have to worry about taking out another mortgage to do it.

Bringing back the 80's
A sense of nostalgia hit me when I was talking a while back with some fellow soxfans about old cartoons and shows that I used to watch while I was a kid. He-Man and Transformers were brought up(Kid Gleason?) and I was reminded of it when i just saw this blurb http://www.darkhorizons.com/news05/050712g.php Jason Bay or Steven Spielberg involved? Safe to say there will be no goofy dance scene in this one, hopefully Optimus Prime makes it to the sequel

TRADE THREAD III ~July 9 - July 15
QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 01:03 PM) I have to admit I was relying on Griffey's past and stature as a measure of his D. I didn't bother to crunch the numbers. Yes, it's possible Juggs can put together a post w/out looking at the numbers. When I do you guys always catch me on it http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/stats/fieldi...llInningsPlayed 05 F% AR 13th .990, KGJ 16th .985 05 IP AR 7th 717, KGJ 12th 680 05 TC AR 14th 191, KGJ 10th 199 05 A AR 23rd 2, KGJ 17th 3 05 RF AR 17th 2.37, KGJ 10th 2.60 05 ZR AR 4th .923, KGJ 22nd .820 Cincy pitchers are generating more hits right at KGJ than White Sox pitchers are for Rowand. But Rowand is covering a LOT more ground than KGJ these days. Griffey has the better arm, but a 3-2 assist advantage is insignificant. I think it's time some of you start giving Aaron props. 2004 ZR AR 1st .921 KGJ DNP enough The Southtown obviously does not value Rowand enough either to even suggest KGJ. Post season championships are won on pitching, big plays, & big hits. Aaron has a better chance of helping all 3 categories than KGJ. Let's just hope Aaron starts hitting again but like Crede his glove talent has earned him that everyday player status. Finally, someone who can admit they are wrong.

What movie ending shocked you?
Isnt a remake of "The Wicker Man" in production right now? I kept reading blips and blurbs about it on www.darkhorizons.com but I never really found out if it was made or not. I know Josh Hartnett was connected to it for a while

TRADE THREAD III ~July 9 - July 15
QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 11:59 AM) Its funny how you completely ignore the rest of the post. The reason he is good in the 1st half is because he is fresh. Thats where the 20 day suspension comes in. To keep him fresh for the 2nd half. Its Funny how you ignore his post all-star break numbers being significantly worse than his pre all-star game numbers. So you welcome a pitcher with baggage and a 20 game suspension, on the hunch that Rogers wont be his regular second half self? Thats a pretty big gamble on the Gambler. Ill pass
