QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 11:33 PM) does anybody know somebody with the entire zappa collection? I have a friend with everything the fall ever released and thats not even comparable to zappas output...well, to be fair theyve had about 10 less years I have the majority of them, but not all legit sadly. Once I get the money, I plan on buying them all once I get the money, which might be awhile

QUOTE(q\/\/3r+y @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 10:34 PM) In 2003 we were discussing the cubs. Was the day after the bartman s*** went down. I was bashing the cubs and the teacher started crying ( literally) and she started yalking s*** about '' well where are the sox now''. Eventually she kicked me out and sent me to the office. I thought it was amusing but apparently no one else did. I ended up getting suspended ( which was bulls***) for two days... for harrasing a teacher. Then she wanted me transferred from her class. Reavis did everything they could to get me out of that pos...which they eventually did. Since when it is against the rules for stating your opinion on something the entire class is discussing? Rather strange that they could suspend you for that.

QUOTE(Tmar28 @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 11:26 AM) but then again, you like the bears so wouldn't you have a bias towards the bears? Yep, but I'm not expressing my opinion on the matter of Benson being a bust or not etc.

QUOTE(Tadahito Iguchi @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 01:44 AM) Is Kobe better than Michael Jordan? I think he might be hes won 3 championships already...................And I wouldnt be surpried if he finishes with 5 more............ Shaq won 3 championships. Kobe benefitted from having Shaq with him, and his teams suck when he doesn't have Shaq. Look at the Lakers record becaose claiming that he'll win 5 more. And comparing Kobe to MJ? I'm not a Bulls fan, but wow. Don't go there, they are so far apart its not even funny. And yea, most of this was probably already said. So just ignore me

Yea, I'm getting the same thing. It seems much slower to me recently, probably the new layout.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 10:15 PM) Cause Seattle is overrated, right? I keep saying it every week. Its gotta be proven right at least once

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 07:26 PM) I really havent said anything about the bears in this thread with exception of benson, so who gives a damn, i have my own opinion. Yes, thats true. You do have your own opinion. But stating that you have a blatent hate for the Bears and all their players (which includes Benson by the way), voids your opinion on the matter in my book. Thats my opinion

The Steelers will take this one home handily.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 06:45 PM) I dont like the bears or their players Right there you completely made anything you've said in this thread null and void because you've showed you have a bias against the Bears.

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 06:56 PM) I understand he said nasty things, but if you go to a sporting event, you should expect them. I'm not saying that its ok, but you should expect it. She's sitting there with her young son, and nasty things get said to her. What do you really expect her to do? Its just downright rude to say things like that, especially to people with young children with them.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 08:07 AM) How about FutureSox: Stocking Kenny's Bait Shop :rolly Take out the green and we have a winner!

Which picture will win?!

QUOTE(Steve Bartman's my idol @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 02:40 PM) How about Abreu in LF, Pods in CF? BTW...I would trade McCarthy for Abreu...Abreu is an all star, McCarthy is still unproven. Pods in CF Answer your question?

Thats not what I asked though. I asked which of the two would you take. There isn't a third choice, there are 2 choices. Player A hits .260 with a .400 OBP, Player B hits .300 with a .330 OBP. Who do you take? And .300/.330 is having Willie? Willie hits in the .260's.. >_

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 12:26 PM) Velvet Underground - VU and Nico Yea, I was curious where that was on the original list of this thread. I expected that to be there, but it wasn't

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 09:25 AM) I really appreciate the insanely great musicianship of that lineup. That's what I love about Zappa's music, especially the live stuff. His band must have been so close (and from what I've heard, they spent months living together just so they were that close) and so exceedingly gifted to do some of the things that he had them do. Then, during the live shows, they would ad lib by involving the crowd or something, and yet they would still keep every sound perfect. From a normal listeners point of view, his music is great, but from a technical point of view, his music is downright amazing.

QUOTE(thedoctor @ Jan 21, 2006 -> 01:22 PM) because civil adults don't act that way. when you swear at someone, you are escalating the conflict and inviting it to be taken to another level. that was unnecessary. the guy i heard on dan patrick's show who was right there (he was in the frame in a blue shirt) said davis's wife was getting stoked, standing up and cheering for her team. the guy told her something to the effect of "hey lady, sit the f*** down." if you tell me that, we have a problem. if you say it nicely, we don't. i'm not saying davis's wife was right. she wasn't. neither was axelrod. as i said, adults behaving badly. Thats basically how I see this situation.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 02:08 AM) I also think Antonio totally overreacted to the whole situation. He acts as if Kendra was being attacked or raped or something. There was no need to jump into the stands the way he did. Well, when at a basketball game, fans do drink, and considering it was his wife and child that was involved in a conflict, I don't blame him at all for doing what he did. When he's on the court, he has no way of knowing if the fan is drunk, or what they are saying to each other, but the moment the threat of any physical attack is apparent, then he has every right in the world to go up and question what is going on. He obviously didn't go up there to throw punches or anything, he just wanted to stop whatever was going on. Yea, he could have notified security or something, but if something were to happen to his family because he went to get security rather than going right to the problem, he'd have to live with it.

QUOTE(Steve Bartman's my idol @ Jan 21, 2006 -> 06:17 PM) I'd trade ANY of our starters except Buehrle for Abreu in a 1 for 1 swap! If this includes McCarthy, you are crazy. Hell, who am I kidding. Even if it doesnt include McCarthy, you are crazy.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 01:49 AM) Tough call, but cut for cut I'd give Who's Next the nod as the one for this list. Then again, I tend to put Quadraphenia on more than either of them because Entwhistle's bass lines on that album still completely blow me away. I agree with Quadraphenia, its likely my favorite Who album, but I just never got into Who's Next the way I did to Tommy. Seconded. Seconded. IV was good, but II was just better. I would have included some Zappa on this list, but thats only out of personal bias. I think that Zappa is one of, if not the, most talented artist in rocks history, and would include Joe's Garage, We're Only in it for the Money, Hot Rats, Apostrophe, Shut up 'n Play Yer Guitar, many others and many of his live albums (Broadway the Hard Way, The Best Band You've Never Heard in Your Life, a few of the You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore series, etc.) on any top list I make. But as said, I'm bias, and some of his music is doesn't appeal to the masses, which is what the original list in question is about I believe.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 01:35 AM) was he really that bad? Because Rex's stats are worse. QUOTE(Felix @ Jan 21, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) Are you kidding? If you didn't watch the games, don't make these type of blind comments, and if you did watch the games, you wouldn't be making this argument in the first place. Reading previous posts is fun!

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jan 22, 2006 -> 01:25 AM) i am not however they are saying that Mehammad is a great receiver. He is a no.2 at best and he only cares about his stats. My god I thought he was gonna have a "Vote for Rex" pin on during the games. When the backup QB is Kyle Orton, then you should have a "Vote for Rex" pin on.

I didn't really find it that funny either. It also doesn't compare to the song Llama by Phish:

I think they are both at fault. Yea, supposedly she was getting in his face, but he was also supposedly saying inappropriate comments to her. They should both just shut up and enjoy the games they go it.

"You know, you can just call me Mike" That being said, its gotta be Milton.
