  1. The perverbial "defining our team" game for my South Carolina boys is Wednesday night at home against Mississippi State. Most 'experts' have questions how good this USC team is, with a weak non-conference schedule. A win over a much-ballyhooed Miss St team would go a long ways in terms of SEC standings. It would put USC back into a tie with Kentucky atop the SEC East. I'm ready.
  2. Abbey Road still gets mucho airplay in my CD player. Hard to believe its been almost 25 years since Lennon was killed. As for the teeny-bopper early music comments...well, think about it this way. Thats yet another influence that the Beatles put on modern music. These days, to break into the commercial music industry, you have to make music that is appealing to the overall population first off. Music that will get airplay, simplistic styles and easy to remember lyrics. Then, when you have the perverbial "populations attention", you can start to make music that YOU feel is important to YOU. It happens all the time in modern music now, and it happened in the early 60's when The Beatles were touching down in the United States of America for the first time. "And in the end, the love you take.....is equal to the love....you make."

    Guess I'm officially 3rd in line on the Beatles train. Been defending them as long as I've been on here. Too bad I have to work through Letterman, I woulda liked to have seen it.
  4. Major props for posting pics of Lauren.. Much better Rex, they showing up now.
  5. This is some nice freakin work The Cheat. Maybe when you get caught up, you can touch mine up a bit.

    I've been stuck on that damn Drug known as EverQuest for about 6 months. So addictive, I don't even play my XBox anymore...
  7. All I can say is ouch....my boys went to Rupp Arena, held Kentucky to under 40% from the field, get the last shot to try and win......and lose...by 1 point. 65-64. And as a reward, they get to play Mississippi State on Wednesday night. Coach Odom has our team of youngsters playing some inspired hoops. At 19-4, all looks pretty good right now.
  8. Sometimes apparently its just the "in" thing to do....to say, "Wow...the Beatles are overrated." Most of the folks who know something about music can attest to the sheer beauty that was a Lennon-McCartney composition. Great musicians? No, not really. Great vocals? Most of the time, but not God-like. Point is, its hard to question the sum of the entity known as "The Beatles" considering what was accomplished from the early days in The Cavern Club right up to the Abbey Road rooftop concert. No, they were by no means the best musicians ever, but the music that they released from 1964-1970, how they shaped it and transformed it, is still to this day something to marvel at.

  10. That deal makes too much since for us to consider passing up if it actually were presented to KW....therefore, I know it won't happen!!! Seattle would be downright braindead to make that move, I'm sorry....but hey, we've seen some GMs *cough* make dumb moves like that before, so who knows.
  11. And sadly, Mariotti is right on point. The right thing to steer this organization in the right direction, and help win fanbase back, is to get Maggs locked up. It is for that reasonthat of course, it will NOT happen. Profit margins have been more important to good ole JR than winning baseball since he's been here
  12. Wow, The Cheat....I was beginnig to think I was the last person in the world that thought "Vitalogy" was a damn good album. Kudos to you!!! As for my list, I'll try to think of them all... Foo Fighters - "The Colour and the Shape" Audioslave - "Audioslave" Pearl Jam - "Yield" Fiona Apple - "When the Pawn..." Closure - "Closure" The Beatles - "Rubber Soul" The Beatles - "Abbey Road" Led Zeppelin - "Houses of the Holy" Weezer - "Weezer" Foo Fighters - "One By One" Veruca Salt - "Eight Arms to Hold You" Coldplay - "Rush of Blood to the Head" Those are some of my all time favorites. Your opinion may vary....
  13. BITE YOUR TONGUE!!! Alas, Mr. Critic....Fiona is one of the better songwriters out there, and it doesnt hurt that her music isn't plastered all over the garbage called mainstream music.
  14. Capn12 replied to sox4lifeinPA's topic in SLaM
    I have intentions of seeing this flick...BTW, props on using the best Helena Bonham-Carter quote from Fight Club
  15. Good deal Aboz....but good Lord, I gotta agree with teh others....that shirt Este has on is hair raising!! Yikes!!!
  16. Well, I'm really looking forward to "Extraordinary Machine" by Fiona Apple. Its been a good 5 years since her last release, and its long overdue.
  17. So....yeah....my South Carolina team is doin pretty damn good this year....18-2, 5-1 in the conference. Wait, did I already mention that??
  18. Well, my South Carolina boys are now 18-2, and 5-1 in the SEC!!! Dunno how you cant get them a slot in the Big Dance right now. Dave Odom could quite possibly be Coach of the Year for his efforts with a team that was "supposed" to finish last in the confrence. Kudos to Coach Odom and the guys in Columbia, SC!!
  19. And my South Carolina boys dropped into the AP Top 25 The boys are playing some damn good hoops right now. Sitting at 16-2 overall, 3-1 in the SEC.

    WHAT THE f***??? Damnit, people are just f***ing unbelieveable.
  21. Capn12 replied to aboz56's topic in SLaM
    Yeah, I dont get it either...anytime I'm flipping thru the movie channels, and Zoolander is on, I watch it. "Oh!!!!! The files are IN the computer??"
  22. Capn12 replied to aboz56's topic in SLaM
    You kidding right? You don't actually go by what the so called experts say do ya? Most of my favorite movies ever were THRASHED by "experts". Planes, Trains and Automobiles The Fifth Element Rounders ALL thrashed by these piece of s*** "critics" Go form your own opinions israel4ever. Honestly, no one can tell you what YOU will enjoy in a film. Also, DEFINATELY watch Office Space.....cult classic that 90% of the blue collar cubicle workers can quote en masse.
  23. Lol, nice find C. Rector.....pretty funny stuff...heres what I got: Heather Lee in Questions Later In this action packed rollercoaster, Heather_Lee (Heather Graham) is an undercover soldier with a problem. She has to find YASNY (Steven Seagal) before her archenemy, Sox4lifeinPa (Pierce Brosnan), outwits him. Like many before her, she demolishes a hidden basement. Watch this movie if you like rubbish! Cwsox in The Trials of Cwsox Cwsox (Mel Gibson) has made the worst career move of his life. The suspense mounts as his approval rating is in the hands of the constituents, and Steff, his speech writer (Maggie Smith), is being frightfully unhelpful. Chisoxfn (Willem Dafoe) puts the finishing touches on an undesirable option, though the jury is out regarding the wisdom involved in that process. Fanof14 in Gunzone In this compelling bloodbath, Fanof14 (Jennifer Aniston) is a naïve police officer with a libido to kill. She must silence Capn12 (Michael Richards) before her foe, Aboz56 (John Malkovich), captures him. Wasting no time, she sneaks into Aboz56's fortress, not knowing what she expects to find inside. You only live twice; see this movie both times. Edited to change YASNY's gender!!! Sorry about that Yasny....hehe..long night.
  24. Yep, and I'm sorry....but Carl Everett had no friggin clue how to play CF. He just didnt have then mentality to get it done there. Throwing to the wrong base, missing cutoff men, weak arm....I know Carl could hit, but IMO AaRow can produce enought to warrant his everyday status.
  25. Hopefully its known that I've been the biggest AaRow supporter around. i have been all for giving him his shot, and NOT bringing anyone in to play CF. No need to, when I believe that we have our solution already here. We are all rooting for ya AaRow!!
