QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 03:03 PM) Thibs will not reveal his starters... Maybe there's an Arrested Development sponsorship/tie-in where Will Arnett will reveal Derrick Rose in uniform after spinning a large crate several times, while The Final Countdown is playing.

Engagement Rings
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 01:59 PM) How come I didnt get this reaction when I posted a pic of it way back? Like I said. Most people can't tell the quality of a diamond by looking at it. For all we knew, that was a large, low quality ring.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 12:45 PM) Damn dude. You must be a baller. I spent a little over 8k and was not very happy about it. But I waited like 7 years to propose, so I felt I owed it to her (and did). Looking back, much like our wedding (self-paid), I wish I had gone the cheaper route. That's a lot of money that could have cut down student loans, bank rolled a decades worth of vacations, etc. Yeah I'm in the same boat as you and Y2HH. A complete waste of money and 99.99% of people would never know the difference looking at your wife's ring if you went the cheap route. The extra thousands I spent would have been better utilized by paying off her student loans.

Game Thread 4/27: TB @ SOX
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 27, 2013 -> 02:46 PM) Yeah that 26-5 streak really sucked. We really couldn't b**** about the team foe over a month. I don't know about you but I want my team to make the post season and win titles. I guess you can hang your hat on having an impressive month of baseball.

It must be said - Hawk Harrelson has to go
QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 27, 2013 -> 09:24 AM) After all Sabermetrics is largely a gimmick too. You're probably the same person who thinks climate change is false because it was really cold one morning when you woke up. Never mind the evidence from 99.99% of the scientific community.

Jake Peavy in this month's GQ as part of a fashion spread with other MLB players.- War/Military Question
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 02:31 PM) And if that's the reason why we vaporized 200k people, then the original post is correct and it was an enormous war crime for no reason. It was the worst terrorist attack in human history in that view. Instead, my reading of the situation is that the pro-military-forces in Japan were strong enough that nothing else the U.S. could have done short of invading the mainland would have ended the war, and I think the U.S. military planners were right to believe that would have cost hundreds of thousands of american lives and millions of Japanese civilians. It took the combination of 2 cities being vaporized by a new weapon and the invasion in Manchuria to break the military stranglehold on the government and create a situation where some variety of peace was possible. Couldn't vaporizing one entire city make that point?- GT 4/21/13 Twins vs. SOX @ 1:10 pm on WGN

With the Cubs fielding one of the worst teams in MLB, this would be a golden opportunity to put together a solid team to win over the hearts of the city. Oh well. Maybe some other time.- GT 4/21/13 Twins vs. SOX @ 1:10 pm on WGN

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 07:14 PM) I'd say they are about as useful as 3 starts worth of statistics I'd have to say his 3 most recent starts are more relevant than what he did 6 years ago.- Twins @ White Sox, 4/20/12
QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 01:57 PM) It's official!! At exactly .100 for the season. Let's see, that is $2.5 million per hit so far this season, great deal. Give the guy a break. I think after another 1000 ABs we'll know if there's something wrong with him. - Technology catch-all thread
