A new HBO series coming this fall, "Bored to Death", is probably going to be amazing. - Zach Galifianakis, Jason Schwartzman, Ted Danson, Kristin Wiig Bored to Death Also looking forward to "The Pacific" a new miniseries from Tom Hanks/Steven Spielberg that promises to be on the level of Band of Brothers. The Pacific As for Hung, the first episode was pretty good.

The Thunder should sign Millsap and then trade expiring contracts (Watson/etc.) for Kaman. Kaman/Krstic Millsap/Collison Durant/Green Harden/Thabo Westbrook

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: reports Blackhawks forward Martin Havlat is willing to re-sign with the club to a pay cut provided he gets a long-term deal. GM Dale Tallon also negotiated with the agent for Nikolai Khabibulin, who could be moving on as the 'Hawks have Cristobal Huet under an expensive long-term deal, but the DAILYHERALD.COM'S Tim Sassone speculates Tallon's interest in Khabibulin suggests he's shopping Huet, possibly to Edmonton or Colorado as Sassone claims those two teams are at least listening to what Tallon is offering.

Contreras + Slayer = Sox win 8-2

Beckham is the best talent we've seen come up through our system since the Big Hurt. He very well could wind up the best of his draft class... it's certainly starting out that way. Kinda ironic, the one time the Sox take the guy I wanted them to take!

The key is the pitching. We're currently 2nd in the AL in ERA. However, the Sox have been giving up more than half a run per game in unearned runs. There have been a lot of errors. If the main culprits can get their act together and play solid defense while adjusting to new positions (Beckham/Ramirez), this team has a great shot at the playoffs with a hopefully healthy Quentin returning, a future All-Star developing in Beckham and Poreda eventually stepping into the rotation.

Why the f*** would Nix LEAD OFF?

That is a very stupid advertisement. "Hey, eating our sandwich is like sucking a dick!"

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 02:36 PM) He was released today. He looked good in Spring Training... including against us. He had a .381 OBP. I know he's not exactly Torii Hunter in CF (or even remotely so), but it's time to re-marry the ex, so to speak. Many will be against me in this, but I ask you... for leading off for the White Sox, do you prefer Pods or Wise? Easy answer in my book. Since we're bumping threads... can I get some props on this?

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:22 PM) Yup that's what I remember. I also remember a HR from Big MO to LF. I remember that day as well. I was en route to a softball game in DeKalb and it came on the radio and I s*** myself. Freddy was a really big deal then. I also vividly remember where I was the day we dealt away B-Mac (Walgreens in f***ing Rockford, ugh) and the day we traded for Thome (leaving a Blockbuster).

QUOTE (everafan @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 02:43 PM) The Reds and the Giants could really use a right-handed power bat like Dye. You know who else? The White Sox. Exactly. He's our best hitter and we're well-within the race. This is purely speculation and there's no reason to even consider Dye as a trading chip.

Hawks are talking to Bulin about bringing him back.

It's all about Scott Podsednik. I am so happy he came back and showed all the haters that when he's healthy he's a catalyst and a reason a lineup works.

There's way too many idiot nerds out there watching this trash. The bar for Hollywood has just been lowered.

The bean balls are just ridiculous.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 04:23 PM) *sigh* I hate you right now Steve. Absolutely hate you.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. No DeRosa = No Problem

You won. Apologize for nothing. If ya ain't first yer last.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 08:13 PM) I wonder what someone like Nolan would do with something like the Transformers series. He'd say "no thanks".

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 12:26 AM) Bob Barker. Pains me to say, but only a matter of time IMO. That's normally how it works... with everybody.
