2011 Films Thread
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 30, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) I don't get why people don't get it. The movie simply wasn't that funny. I'm not a movie snob, especially when it comes to comedies, but this movie just didn't make me laugh out loud once. There were a few snickers here and there (like with the monkey smoking in slow motion and Stu screaming "f*** the po-lice"), but nothing that really had me laughing. I went with two other guys and they never laughed out loud either. It was enjoyable to see once, but it just wasn't very good. If you hadn't seen the first one, the second may have had a few laugh out loud scenes where they basically just reenacted parts of the first movie, but it's hard to laugh at Mr. Chow jumping out of the ice machine and beating everyone up when you could see it coming a mile away. I was this way with the first one. From all of the hype I thought it would be way funnier than it was. I laughed in some parts, but with the way that movie was played up, I expected legendary comedy, something like Bachelor Party. I got a good comedy. The second one will probably be Redbox material when it comes out.

Wow is right. I wonder if he saw the negative blowback that the Big Three got and didn't want to be "that guy".

Lucas Harrell Called Up
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 30, 2011 -> 10:39 AM) There's also likely a lot of conditioning and throwing regime impacting that type of repeat injury. It seems like they also are taught not to go at 100%, but instead concentrate on accuracy and repeatability more than anything.

Realistic Adam Dunn expectations
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 30, 2011 -> 08:06 AM) Because you don't pay a guy at age 31 $16 million per year over four years to be a platoon player. Just like Ozzie won't take away Dunn's ab's and give them to Lillibridge or Viciedo. He almost always lets veteran players work out of slumps unless they're injured. Nick Swisher is one of the only benchings of a high-salaried player (for a longer than 3-5 game span) that I can remember in the last decade. $14 million per year.

And that's a White Sox winner!!!!!!!
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 30, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) Jesus, 4-6 is a good f***ing stretch from the White Sox, and it's the beginning of the end for the Indians. No, everyone would be declaring the Sox end if they went 4-6 as well. Maybe even if they went 6-4.

Why no changes..............Really!
QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 29, 2011 -> 07:03 PM) I don't think the Sox can afford to offer Jackson arbitration. Trading him is the only way, IMO, to get anything for him. Unless he really collapses, he is going to test free agency, so we will offer him arbitration to get the pick.

2011 White Sox Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (T R U @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:27 AM) Its not absurd, and Danks isn't losing 20 games anyway so that's irrelevant.. Your best arms should be the ones you're counting on to give you the most innings and Buehrle is by far the worst arm in the rotation.. "Best arms" don't mean a thing in baseball. This isn't arm wrestling... Getting guys out is what matters, and Mark still does that better than Edwin does. He also usually gives you the most innings.

Ozzie's "old school" style killing this team
QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ May 30, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) So our fearless leader once again gave away an out by calling for a stupid sac bunt again tonight that killed an inning. Ozzie leads all AL managers in calling for both sac bunts and int walks. This is LOSING baseball. The three teams in MLB that have sac bunted the least? 1st place Indians 1st place Red Sox 1st place Diamondbacks Idiot. The irony is that Ozzie wasn't even the dumbest manager on the field last night.

Changes today - McPherson DFA-ed, Harrell sent down
QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 30, 2011 -> 03:06 PM) Oh yeah, I was certainly not suggesting a 7-man rotation with Marquez in it. lol. I just thought it was weird considering there has been talk about us trimming the rotation down to 5, thus we would already have a starter in the bullpen. Now we will have 2. It must mean they don't plan on cutting to 5 anytime soon.

Arizona requires you to carry your papers
QUOTE (Tex @ May 29, 2011 -> 09:27 PM) There are somewhere close to 10,000,000 undocumented workers in America. How many different companies are they working for? Are you really going to spend all the time and money to bring those employers to justice? And my analogy is valid. Illegals walk in with real social security cards and (usually) counterfeit birth certificate. Do you really think someone can be an expert on every local, county, and state birth certificate? Do you really think Walmart knows someone is here illegally and hires them anyway? It would still be trillions cheaper than legalization

Official 2011-2012 NCAA Football Thread
QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 30, 2011 -> 10:09 AM) I hate his guts and don't think he would represent OSU in the way us fans would like a coach to. So he would be a perfect guy to succeed Jim Tressel.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 30, 2011 -> 08:43 AM) It still happened on the morning of a holiday, that's a fact. Hey, at least they made sure to get that Suger Bowl win first! If OSU lands Urban Meyer for 2012 I don't know if there will be a more hateable program in all of sports. Its a total holiday dump. I agree 100%

Changes today - McPherson DFA-ed, Harrell sent down
QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 30, 2011 -> 02:14 PM) These are the changes we need! Now we have....8 starting pitches on the roster? EDIT: Nevermind, Harrell went down. Still 7 starters. Marquez is going to be the long man out of the pen I am guessing.

And if I am Ozzie, Danks is throwing 100 pitches no matter what. Numbers be damned.

TODAY IN SOX HISTORY
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 29, 2011 -> 11:25 AM) You sure it was at Comiskey? I thought it was in Detroit because I think I remember it being odd since it happened in such a large stadium. The old Tiger stadium was really short down the lines and power alley. The overhanging upper deck stole a lot of high fly balls too.

5/29 at Blue Jays
QUOTE (fathom @ May 29, 2011 -> 12:34 PM) His stuff is so mediocre this year. Everything is up in the zone. I'm not going to be sad if we get swept in Boston if it results in Danks being traded and Ozzie/Walker fired. No one will be fired. There will be a firesale instead.

Lilly flower
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 29, 2011 -> 11:58 AM) To be fair, we have no idea what Milledge would be doing for this team. I can say one thing for sure, he wouldn't be providing anywhere near the defense that Lilli has. I honestly don't see anything that tells me he would have been hitting as good from him either.
