  1. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 10:13 PM) A live action Calvin & Hobbes would be the greatest thing in the history of entertainment. It would have to have Watterson heavily involved. I wouldn't trust a studio to do it without him
  2. QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 7, 2014 -> 08:16 PM) Kevin Steen reportedly signed with WWE....The talent is there, but if they cut Chris Hero because of the lack of time he put in weight room then I'm not so sure why they're signing Steen. Dudes a human bowling ball. Dude can entertain though. Hero is a middleweight, Steen is a hoss. Vince always loves a hoss

  6. Do you Chicagoland players have any open tournaments in your parks this summer? We are trying to find a fun local tournament to enter and we are having a hell of a time

    QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 09:55 AM) Have you played games like Mario Kart, Mario Galaxy, etc.? Even for adults those games are a lot of fun. With a 2 year old and limited free time, my gaming habits have really changed. I used to love long single player campaigns. I vegged out on WoW for a while. But I can't do that anymore. Even without my son I don't think i'd have the patience to sit down in front of the TV/computer for 5 hours at a time like I used to. So I need shorter bursts of gaming. That's somewhat why the Wii U appeals to me. The mario games are nothing great (Mario Kart, Galaxy 1 and 2, etc. excluded, because they were), but they're games that aren't so serious and you don't need to devote so much time to it. You can play in 20-30 minute spurts. I still love the occasional long single player games - Last of Us, Uncharted, maybe Watchdogs. But they're a rarity these days for me. Left Behind, the DLC for Last of Us, was awesome btw. The last sequence had my heart pumping. Aside from Zelda, this is a big thing missing from Nintendo for me. I am hoping that changes soon. Watchdogs was delayed, and I am not too confident it comes to WiiU, i think it is gonna be cancelled like Aliens Colonial Marines was(although that was for the better)
  10. QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 09:03 AM) Until we see the female partner, we may not hold judgment... I think we need proof of both her existence and the reason for his absence. Without proof, we shall consider this an unexcused absence

    QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 6, 2014 -> 12:17 AM) None of what you said disputes the fact that their target demo is little kids. Their games are just fun, they are meant for everyone. Their target demo is family play
  12. We lost 25-24 in extra innings. We were tied 13-13 going into the 7th, they scored 7 and we came right back with 7. In the extra innings they scored on a mammoth home run and some doubles. We just couldn't close the deal, had the tying run on first and my third baseman hit a homer past our limit and it was the final out I was 4/5 with 2 doubles
  13. QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 06:58 PM) new word? It is a pill developed by Novartis for shortage of pitching
  14. QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 02:16 PM) Dan Bernstein was talking about Buehrle yesterday, saying that he's having a typical Buehrle season so far. He's just getting run support so the Wins are coming. Forget about wins, he has 10 quality starts in which he's averaged 7 innings and a 1.53 ERA, That's not typical. Now he could have a Verlander type month where he can't get anyone out, but for now, anyone who doesn't think Buehrle is a top-2 or 3 Cy this season, is an idiot. And don't get me started on Pitching WAR. Complete nonsense. I was listening to this discussion yesterday as well, did you hear the guy who called in and pointed out Tulo's (RIDONKULOUS) home and away splits when Bernstein was talking about how Tulo is having a way better season than Alexei? It was quite funny to hear the wind get taken out of Bernsteins sails. Hard for him to argue Tulo when he is so bad on the road, even when he is so insane at home(cough*coors field*cough)
  15. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 02:10 PM) I'm just sick of people acting like there's something wrong with Buerhle cause he's "not an ace" when there are VERY FEW aces in baseball year in and out. This is true, but it is funny that when you make that previous statement, that you pointed out someone who IS an ace year in year out. Cliff Lee is a stud

    QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 10:35 AM) I'm getting closer to buying a wii u over a ps4 with all of these mario kart reviews. But I know in the end it's going to be a waste of money. For my gaming habits, which are limited these days, it's basically 2 mario games, mario kart, and maybe, maybe the zelda game if it's amazing (which the reviews will all say it is, despite the last couple being lame and boring). I'm torn. Obviously I enjoy MK8 and most Mario offerings, but I am hoping this E3 brings some big announcements. A few rumors have Retro announcing a new Metroid, some more new Zelda gameplay, and some possibilities like Starfox and whatever solo Mario project is in the works. They are gonna livestream a Smash Bros competition with the top 20 players in the world during E3, I am gonna drop in and watch a little bit. Im not much of a fighter game guy, but it is fun to watch those who know what they are doing. I think there will be some news on Yoshis Yarn and Monoliths "X" project as well.
  17. I think they go BPA, it will be whichever of Aiken, Kolek, and Rodon is on the board. Nola would be the safe pick, but i dont think they go safe
  18. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:15 AM) Well that and apparently his strikeout rate is the same as Courtney Hawkins's. lol, he seems like his homerun rate matches his strikeout rate though
  19. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:12 AM) Fair enough. I'm sure Balta got a kick out of it, though. It was not pleasant to watch. I even felt bad when the challenge was won
  20. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 08:09 AM) The MLB.com highlight picks up at the time that Abreu first has the ball, and before Ramirez ends up throwing to 3B to try to pick off Gonzalez (and that's only because the initial call was reversed that it was a highlight in the first place). So all I'm seeing is a very hesitant Abreu running the baserunner a long ways in the wrong direction and seeming very indecisive about how long to hold onto the ball....hot potato feeling. So you missed the beginning of the play, where it got messed up to begin with. Beckham put Abreu in a bad spot, he didnt really force the runner back, and gave it to Abreu and forced him to come up the line after the runner. Of course he was hesitant, he shouldnt have been there to begin with
  21. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2014 -> 11:24 PM) Who is an ace and how many teams have had them?? Shields, for example, is no more an ace than Buehrle. How many teams have aces? I guarantee you not many, or you could argue that many guys you might pick are not aces. Remember Cliff Lee? Some years he was an ace; some years he sucked. I contend there are not many clear cut aces in baseball since Buehrle emerged as a stellar pitcher. Which years were these? After he came up for good and had his 22-3 season, he was pretty damn good
  22. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 07:53 AM) Well, yeah. Baseball 101. Run the baserunner back towards the base he came from, and don't give it up too early. And simultaneously watch the runner at 3rd from the corner of your eye and make sure he doesn't break for home. Should always be no more than 2 throws and a tag. Abreu shouldn't have kept following the runner while meandering in slow motion towards 2B, but Beckham and Ramirez are veterans and need to set the example for the rest of the team to follow. Did you actually see the play? Because Abreu really wasnt at fault for what happened. The runner froze in front of Gordon and forced Abreu to chase him to begin the rundown after Gordon threw the ball
  23. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2014 -> 04:41 AM) Might want to have a refresher course on those rundown plays again. Abreu looks really shaky out there. Abreu? Everyone looked shaky there, starting with Beckham and ending with Alexei inexplicably throwing to third
