What about Viciedo, haha? Viciedo is a known quantity. Despaigne isnt on a MLB team (or signed by a MLB team) so he doesnt apply

Anyone want to change their profile description to "Statnik"?

Cubano, if you were to rate Puig, Soler, Cespedes and Abreu 1-4 based on their hitting only, how would you rate them?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 30, 2013 -> 04:47 PM) I was all about hacking DirecTV access cards so we could get all the channels, including the porn channels and NFL Sunday ticket. That was quite the cat and mouse game back then. a friend of mine did that for me, but they zapped the cards and he wasnt able to fix it again.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 30, 2013 -> 03:23 PM) Pandora+Bluetooth stereo's would have been revolutionary when I was in college. The lengths we went to put up music on my creative jukebox and then connect it correctly to a nice soundsystem was time consuming. LMAO, we drilled a hole in our ceiling to my roomates room and hooked his computer up to our stereo for parties. Cost us a quarter of our rental deposit because we werent very good at patching holes. TOTALLY WORTH IT THOUGH!

Has anyone seen "Trick r Treat"? I am thinking of renting it for a halloween night movie, I have read that it is one of the more underrated horror movies that has come out in the last 10 years

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Oct 30, 2013 -> 12:16 PM) With the fiasco after they fired Sveum I can only draw one of two conclusions 1., Sveum and management just didn't work together and Cubs felt the need to get rid of him ASAP without putting a great plan in place 2., They completely thought, either through arrogance or mis-reading the situation, that Girardi was signed sealed and delivered. I think they also felt a fall guy was necessary for the regression of Castro and Rizzo. I think once it started to break down, management and Sveum's relationship deteriorated, but they also felt Girardi was in the bag

I saw the Cowherd commercial where he is ripping his neighbors dog for being average, and i thought to myself "Wow, ESPN really is pushing the fact that this guy is a douche. Interesting angle"

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 04:51 PM) Speaking of Seahawk receivers, Sydney Rice is out for the year with a torn ACL. They need Percy Harvin to get healthy fast as their receiving corpse looks like crap right now. If their hopes are pinned on Percy Harvin getting healthy, they are in trouble

Someone make Dunleavy disappear please

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 04:56 PM) TNA has some really talented guys but outside Angle and Roode, im not sure how some of those other guys would fit within the WWE product. I think Daniels would be fine. Styles too

Maybe he could do an invasion angle and actually succeed with it, instead of jobbing out the other promotion and squashing them all Who am I kidding.....

QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 04:23 PM) Just remember that Jimmy Butler's playoff stats happened with Nate Robinson getting the vast majority of minutes and Luol Deng missing games down the stretch. That team was not in a position to win and they still did a little of it. It is far from implausible to think that Jimmy will become a more efficient scorer when you replace Nate Robinson with Derrick Rose and make the rest of the team healthy. With that said, with Hinrich and Dunleavy on the bench, I think Jimmy and Luol will see fewer minutes this year. If Snell is more advanced than other recent draft picks, that's even more minutes to go around. I don't really think Hinrich deserves a ton of minutes, but he'll get Derrick's backup minutes and I think he'll come in for Jimmy at times. I think Dunleavy will also take minutes at 2 and 3. The only way for all those guys to get the minutes I expect them to is if we habitually play small lineups with Deng at the 4. Also, something interesting pointed out to me today is how much of the Bulls team was drafted by the Bulls: PG - Rose (drafted) SG - Butler (drafted) SF - Deng (drafted) PF - Boozer (Cavs) C - Noah (drafted) Hinrich (drafted*) Teague (drafted) Snell (drafted) Gibson (drafted) Dunleavy (I don't remember who drafted him other than it being not-Bulls)Nazr (same as Dunleavy**) Erik Murphy (drafted) Mike James (not drafted) *brought back as FA **from Chicago! You're looking at pretty much all of your rotation players being draft picks, with the exceptions of Boozer and Dunleavy, who are arguably the least important parts of your rotation. That is pretty god damn impressive. Paxson put together a great team with limited use of FA that would be looking like a perennial champ if it weren't for three max contract players fitting onto one team via collusion, douchebaggery, etc. Even with those circumstances, many feel they have a legitimate shot to be NBA champs. Michael Jordan would sell the farm to get Paxson to run his team. GS Warriors

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 01:50 PM) I really do think he has a point...I see this much more like 89-90...we had lost twice to the Pistons already and really thought this was the time we would get them. Isiah was 28, Dumars 26, Rodman 28, but most of the others were on the wrong side of 30. We lost the series 4-3 because no one could win a road game. I remember slamming my wrist against the ground and almost breaking it out of frustration, this, at the age of 13. We got so close but just were not there yet. Needed one more year. I understand that, but Steve is just reminded of 90-91, he never said it was an exact scenario. And lets be honest, outside of Lebron, you look at the Heat and see either old, or replaceable players. Wade is no spring chicken, and Bosh hasnt been the same since he decided to be third wheel. Lebron most likely will put the team on his back like he always does, i dont doubt that.

well, that kind of sucks

lol, the grand revisionist

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 01:11 PM) The opt out for arbitration thing sucks to hear. That means his deal can only get more expensive from here. If he turns out awesome, he won't be a bargain his last couple years. The flip side is if he is a mirage, the Sox can cut their losses

So are the Bobcats going to continue to be so bad that the Bulls will continue waiting forever for that draft pick?

lowest scoring game I have ever played in was 2-0, a game we lost to a tournament team. And they didnt score until the bottom of the 6th. IIRC we completed the game in 35 minutes

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 11:56 AM) Kyyle, the Hogan rumors are back!!!!! I saw. He is supposedly working out hard for another WWE run. I am very curious what that does to TNA. He is the worst enemy in the booking and biggest draw in the ring. If he truly jumps ship, then it is looking more and more like the ticks and fleas are jumping off the dead dog. How long does Panda energy continue to throw money into Dixie Carters wallet to keep this thing floating?

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 12:09 PM) My video is the trailer for X-Men. well then you should watch the video I was talking about

Im guessing that is the "***** things wrong with Prometheus in 5 minutes" video. Cant access it at work unfortunately

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 11:00 AM) I thought Prometheus was great. I didn't really look at it like an Alien prequel, but a movie in that same universe. I actually loved that a lot of questions didn't get answered. I spent a lot of time with friends arguing about what it all means. I am all for mysteries and plot twists, but there was some things that just were wtf. The black oil...so it completely destroys and breaks down the engineers for the purpose of distributing their DNA, but turns the guy into a alien impregnator/raging frankenstein monster. And the massive facehugger...um why did it grow into the size of a rhinocerous in a room by itself. The engineer goes crazy when it wakes up from its billion year sleep. why? There are tons of little minute details that you can pick at, but the black oil purpose and reactions pissed me off the most. It was a big time Macguffin.

BUT WHAT IS HIS DAMN NUMBER kind of strange that De Aza has a seat saved for him
