SoxTalk's Managerial Choices
QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Mar 11, 2009 -> 07:56 AM) why do those 3 have to be our only options? its pretty clear that neither of the 3 are or should be starting cfers. would it be impossible to trade for someone? Sure BA isn't all that, but i'm an admitted BA fanboy. Plus, I believe that he's our best option in CF, i'd much rather have his defense out there everyday.

BK Burger shots vs. White Castle sliders
QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 02:52 PM) Only they aren't better than McDonalds according to sales, which is kind of reflected in the numbers. MCD: Total Revenue for 2008: 23.5 BILLION Cost of Revenue for 2008: 14.8 BILLION Gross Profit for 2008: 8.639 BILLION BKC: Total Revenue for 2008: 2.54 BILLION Cost of Revenue for 2008: 1.063 BILLION Gross Profit for 2008: 1.48 BILLION Burger King f***ing sucks. McDonalds > BK. Do you work for McDonalds or something? I choose my favorite place to eat due to taste, not by who comes up with creative ideas and/or who has the most revenue. Oh, I also saw some mention about Coke II in this thread. Coke II, FTW.

BK Burger shots vs. White Castle sliders
QUOTE (Y2HH @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 01:58 PM) Burger King f***ing sucks. They are the ONLY unoriginal burger chain in existence. Everyone else has their own image and basic ideas on the burger, Burger King's image continues to be, "We wish we were McDonalds!", and that's why they continue to be a super fail. Not much of a fail when you're better than McDonalds.... Back to the original topic. I've had the burger shots...meh, I wouldn't care if I ever had them again. I could go for white castle sliders anytime, it's something that can't be replicated. Even though just about every restaurant has tried with "sliders" of their own.

Music Thread
QUOTE (Fotop @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 11:08 AM) 4 Lollapalooza Headliners leaked: Jane's Addiction Depeche Mode Beastie Boys Kings of Leon Likely 2 more big names yet to be leaked/announced (rumors abound about the last of the big names with Tool being the one that's most mentioned), but I can't say I'm terribly excited so far. Thoughts? So far i'm not excited. Ever since the Beasties became "adults" and won't acknowledge anything they did in the 80's I don't respect them a whole lot. I'm hoping the supporting bands will make the money worth it.

Official Squared Circle Thread
Undertaker/HBK=good segment, this should be THE match of WM. This is the 2nd time they've dropped the ball with the whole Cena/Edge/Show thing. Before it was Cena "stalking" Vickie until he got his rematch...takes only 1 week. Now he has this secret that they could of easily stretched until 'Mania, but again they blow it up way earlier....come on WWE, let's be smart about this. HHH/Orton had the right idea....just not the execution. Maybe it's the fake wife, maybe it's the fake screams. Maybe it's HHH having to wear that damn leather jacket when he feels like he needs to show that he's a bad ass.

MMA Thread
QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Mar 9, 2009 -> 03:26 AM) If anything they should move up the St. Pierre or BJ Penn title shot. They both have had more time than what Rampage will and Penn especially needs to defend that belt. Dana's probably waiting to save one of his golden geese (GSP) for the 100th show. Penn was supposed to fight on the show in June, but turned it down to spend time with family.

Which Soxtalk League were you in last year?

MMA Thread
To add about Rampage. On Dana White's video blog there's footage of him going to Rampage's locker room to ask if he'd wanna take the fight...Rampage mentions something about hurting his jaw before the Wanderlei fight, the overtraining and him wanting to help Bisping train for Henderson...we'll see. Also, if they're willing to hold up Lesnar/Mir (which i don't totally agree with) they should also be willing to hold up Rampage/Evans. I guess I don't get why giving Lyoto his title shot has become such an important issue when Yushin Okami (an equally boring fighter) isn't even being considered for a title shot at 185.

MMA Thread
Thoughts on last night. Maynard looked really good, the "bully" did exactly that. Hamill had a KO that will probably be played in UFC highlights for the rest of time, he put Munoz to sleep. Matt Brown was entertaining in his destruction of Sell, even though I wondered why the ref didn't stop it sooner.... Okay, Carwin's legit..I do love how he's now "one of the top" guys now...did Cheick Kongo get fired or something? Rampage obviously didn't stick with the gameplan/looked past the fight...luckily it didn't end up costing him the fight. The build up after the fight was GREAT. I hope Rashad realizes that he's gonna be in there with the toughest fight of his career. P.S. I don't want anymore fighters doing commentary on a fight that involves one of their training partners, it was annoying listening to Rashad slurp Jardine at various points in the fight. Last night, Dana also said that the Rampage/Evans fight may not happen in May depending on how Rampage feels. Either way, it's ramping up to be a good summer for the UFC.

Bills Sign Owens
Well as a Cowboys fan I hope Jerry is looking to get another wideout..like right now. So he was the scapegoat for an o-coordinator who had his schemes exposed at the end of the season & an o-line that racked up penalties.... Well, if the same s*** happens this season Garrett and Phillips should be shown the door. I still don't buy that TO was the cause for all of the problems.
