The Video Rental Thread
QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Nov 19, 2008 -> 11:05 AM) Is this the movie with Simon Baker from the show "The Mentalist"? I'm talking about the one made in 1950, so let me just say, "I doubt it". William Holden is the star in this and in Stalag 17 and Sabrina (Wilder liked him). I really like him as an actor, but I think he got heavily into alcohol and drugs shortly after this film, which unfortunately effected his career and the world's view of him. EDIT: I see your edit. Gotchya. Seriously, check out the four films above. They are very entertaining.

QUOTE (Shadows @ Nov 19, 2008 -> 02:26 AM) What pisses me off is that double cheeseburger costs MORE than a REGULAR hamburger You screwed that one up, but I know what you were going for... Now its funny because they do that tax day deal where burgers are like 59 cents and cheeseburgers 69, but if you want fries and a soda, it costs more than the double cheese meal with a diet. Makes no sense.

If you haven't seen them, a few of Billy Wilder's classics are about as good as film can get. Stalag 17 Sunset Boulevard Double Indemnity The Apartment I thoroughly enjoy all of the above, and of couse "Some Like It Hot" is quite good, and probably Wilder's most famous.

Golfer's honesty costs him PGA slot
Well, at least fire that caddy. However, I must say, he says "anyone would have done it" and that sure isn't true. He deserves props for his honesty, but his honesty makes him an idiot.

Yeah... Rose was the most spectacular player on the floor last night and only one player had a more spectacular play (Kobe's behind the back pass). I love it.

Cora To Stay
QUOTE (lostfan @ Nov 19, 2008 -> 10:29 AM) Good, maybe he can coach 3rd again and do things like wave AJ Pierzynski around on an infield single and get thrown out by 55 feet. OMG I'M SHOCKED SOMEONE WENT THERE!

Alexei on move to SS, Viciedo...
I still think the Sox will sign him, but I'd have thought it'd have happened by now.

Cora To Stay
The Mariners screwed this one up like they've screwed everything up the last couple of years. Cora would make a great manager.

CQ takes 5th in MVP voting
You guys are alcoholics. No one's overrating Morneau here... THIS year he was a better MVP choice than the anointed MVP. It's plain and simple.

Why is Betemit a switch hitter?
On another note, JT Snow ditched switch-hitting late in his career and it did wonders for his overall stats. Maybe the Sox will do this with Betemit.

Why is Betemit a switch hitter?
QUOTE (BearSox @ Nov 18, 2008 -> 10:02 PM) What is everybody's thoughts on Pedro Martinez in some-sort of incentive laden deal where he's our 5th starter? I'd absolutely adore it, but he'd never sign an incentive laden deal. As for Betemit, his career .799 OPS vs righties is encouraging. I say put him out there at one of the infield positions against righties almost nightly.

Anyone try an energy drink named Cocaine?
A drink called "Four" with wormwood oil in it (think Absynthe) got really big around these parts for a couple of months. My buddy and I dropped like $75 for 50 cans and a bunch of us drank a lot of them. We didn't think they were having that much of an effect... but the next morning we looked at a lot of weird pictures we took and we were acting like psychopaths, breaking s*** and going outside in our undewear and s*** haha, didn't even remember it. That morning we were also puking. So yeah, these types of drinks can be fun.
