QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 09:09 AM) Be grateful that you didn't have to wait 7 months after the Season 5 finale. Jacka**. Hence the whole rewatching all of the episodes thing...

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 04:23 PM) about time. tax the piss out of this and BOOM, budget problem solved. That is one impressive tax if you can generate a trillion and a half dollars out of three hundred million people.

So we are to the Season 5 finale. We made it through all of the episodes in about two months. Damn I can't wait.

QUOTE (NIUSox @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 12:11 AM) This reminds me of one of my favorites clips from "The Big Bang Theory" It's about 1:25 in if you want to skip forward. Big Bang Theory Classic.No one wants to be the guy whose job is dependent on Cutler and one year of Lovie Smith. It is a terrible situation.QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 30, 2010 -> 01:45 AM) ESPN just said something interesting. The Bulls are the first team (in NBA history) to win 5 straight games against 5 winning opponents. Wow, impressive. It took a little bit of luck at the end, but those are the things that happen when you are hot.Well considering that Damon supposedly has a 6 and a 7 million dollar offer, there isn't much point in getting excited about this.From Merkins mailbag. http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cwsQUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 02:48 PM) Tell Ben that if he was cool, he'd drive in the storm... Or not a big sissy...QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 28, 2010 -> 06:39 AM) Glad to have you back home, and sincere thank you for your service to our nation. Man, we all love these threads when they pop up. I'd probably be 400 pounds if I didn't move away from Chicago 20 years ago. Many of my recommendations are from way back in the day, so others can jump in if places have gone downhill or disappeared altogether. For good lowbrow eats here are some of my favorites: Burgers and Shakes: Top Notch on 95th St. in Beverly Hotdogs: Fat Johnniies, 74th and Western Crazy fast food joint with good dogs, burgers, banana shakes, cheese fries, fried ketchup tacos, etc.: Janson's Drive-In, 99th and Western. Seafood, mostly fried with killer breading and hot sauce: Lawrence's Fisheries, 21st and Canal St. Pizza: Everyone ha their favorites (See the current "Don't Like in Chicago" thread) , but Lou Malnati's seems to be a universal fave here. My favorite burrito and gyro joints have closed, so someone else can fill in those gaps. Lindy's Chili at 36th and Archer is worth a pilgrimage if you haven't been. I'm a Harold's Chicken nut, but it's not everybody's cup of meat. Mmmm gizzards in hot sauce with white soppin' bread. . . Athena or Greek Islands in Greektown if you've never been. A must do Sox Fan pilgrimage to Miler's Pub on Wabash if you haven't. Walking around the city with a big bag of hot caramel and chedder mixed popcorn from Garrett's popcorn on a cold day is something I miss. That's al I got off the top of my head. I am with you on Harold's, but my favorite is Mickey's on Clark St just south of the CBOT. Zues and Mr Greek are my spots in Greektown. For a burger, hit up Gold Coast for the Char Double Cheddar Bacon Burger, with melted cheddar cheese instead of that sliced crap.QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 28, 2010 -> 10:46 PM) I totally miss wrapping my newborn kids up as tight little baby burritos in those hospital blankets. My wife couldn't roll a baby burrito for s***e, but but I rolled 'em up good and snug, they stayed good and snug. I wonder how you got all of that practice at tight rolling...QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 01:13 PM) Here's the thing, the one car I hate the most in the world is the Ford Taurus, because I always feel like I'm in a bubble whenever I'm in one. But I wouldn't mind a Ford Malibu, Malibu Maxx, or Cobalt. What's your opinion of those? I was also a BIG fan of the Dodge Magnum, and I'm PISSED they discontinued that model. Those are all Chevy's...QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 12:30 AM) I have to wonder about the bullpen myself as well depending on Putz' health and Pena pitching to his potential (though I like his arm) not to mention second half Linebrink. And of course theres Randy Williams..... Thornton and even Bobby will be fine. Agreed. But ya.. this division is that bad. Still, someone will get hot and leak a bit away from the division.
