Awesome game thread so far. Might be the best one of the year as far as pregame comments are concerned.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 01:46 PM) Kind of like our prospects? (See: Dan Hudson, Chris Young, Gio Gonzalez)

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 01:25 PM) I'm liking my Optimus so far. I've been doing nothing but flashing ROMs on it the past few days. Still trying to find one that works 100% and doesn't suck. The first ROM I flashed got rid of everything (even the music player...). Cyanogen 7 available for that device?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 01:09 PM) The article writer. That just proves that you didn't even read the article.

A thread about "Super Congress" and not one post mentioning super strength, flying, or mutations?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) Wait, what? By whom? I see no US politicians trying to gain anything from this. Show me one. Another example of manufactured outrage by the Soxtalk Extremist Brigade™

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 01:00 PM) The spinning of this for political gain. By whom and what's the spin?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 12:19 PM) It is terrorism, without a doubt. Plus a little bit of exploitation mixed in. Exploitation? How so?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 12:10 PM) That sounds just like Arizona. But never waste an opportunity... Ugh. Sometimes I hate people. This act is the definition of terrorism which was his point.

An no, there are no baseball stadiums literally on any interstate highway.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 12:11 PM) That's what I meant, though. Those two are literally right on I-90. Looking at google maps of each park, Safeco looks to be exactly the same distance to 90 as the other parks (using the 1" = 200 meters scale for each map).

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 12:08 PM) Too bad Safeco isn't on I-90 It's walking distance from it.

DoH!

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 12:00 PM) I've done the Chicago-Boston trip and vice versa a few times. There is nothing for 1,000 miles, although I always thought it was cool that both Comiskey and Fenway are right on I-90. You can drive straight from one to the other. Keep going west and you'll end up at Safeco Field.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 11:22 AM) That isn't a biased source or anything... I love how the "Bush tax cuts" disappear under Obama... Either that or they become "stimulus tax cuts". The wars also somehow miraculously ended in the last two years, and the Fed didn't do any of the QE's. That chart is garbage. Perhaps you missed the "Total Cost of New Policies" part.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 10:43 AM) The max security prison there has horseback riding, tennis courts and woodshop classes. A real hard prison life, for sure. Where did you find that info?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) How the heck does that happen?No clue.

Total deaths changed from 93 to 76 per CNN.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 11:56 PM) Frankly, I think a Monday-Wednesday-Friday only postal service would be perfectly fine. That would certainly add to the large number of unemployed/underemployed.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 09:54 AM) He can Below himself.

Curious if we'll make the opposing pitcher's ERA drop "Below" 1.00.

I look forward to the posts "Below" mine.
