QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 29, 2007 -> 04:00 PM) Whoa whoa whoa. We have to wait until next feb?? WTF Three short seasons. And they don't want to miss February and May sweeps!

I had to go the same route as Steve to get it. Torrents can be your friend. I just have the last updated roster though, never updated to MVP '06. Maybe I'll do that today.

God I hate that place. What a garbage dump that "ball park" is.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ May 29, 2007 -> 01:28 PM) It's a question of talent. Maybe Ozzie could make a move here or there that could win a few games over the course of the season, but I don't know. It still comes down to talent and the White Sox don't have the talent of the Red Sox, Tigers or Indians. So I'm going to watch this season with the hope that they remain competetive and maybe, just maybe, find themselves with a chance at the post season in September. And that can be the difference between winning the division or sitting at home for the playoffs, like last year.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ May 29, 2007 -> 09:28 AM) My brother had every single rookie card of Bo's that he could find. I was kind of young when he was playing, but I do remember him running on the wall in Kansas City. That was crazy! I also had a baseball game with him on Sox. Since it was after his injury, he was slow as can be, but could hit the ball a mile. Bo Jackson Baseball for the NES. Bo was unstoppable.

Bo at his finest:

Are there any rumors of Microsoft dropping the price of the 360? My cheap ass isn't going to pay $400 for a video game system.

I hate the Twins.

Nice work Logan. Ozzie confirmed my sig with his "management" this inning.

Go deep or go home: The White Sox Offense

That's how you play baseball, gentlemen.

Go offense, Go!

Nice work getting out of that jam.

Whats the maximum sentence for this level of animal cruelty?

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 27, 2007 -> 03:35 PM) Ozzie needs to have a quicker hook on when he changes someones role. Last year he marched Politte and his ripped up arm out in late game situations because of 05 and he clearly didnt have it. He kept trying over and over and over losing games. This year we are trying to do the same thing with Mac. The guy cannot throw strikes right now, and his velocity is way down. Something is up. See my signature.

Off to a good start again.

Couldn't even advance him one base with 3 outs...

Nice.

Thought it was an enjoyable movie. Nothing more, nothing less. Better than the second one, not as good as the first.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ May 24, 2007 -> 11:39 AM) So unless we have 100% confirmation on intelligence from every available resource, we should not act? Let's change your words here a bit to fit a different argument......And not every scientist in the world agreed 100% that global warming is a imminent threat. Any dissent, however, was brushed aside, ignored, or crushed by the Eco-nazis. No, I never said that. I just sick of people acting like everyone in the world agreed that Saddam had weapons and was a imminent threat. QUOTE(Jenksismyb**** @ May 24, 2007 -> 12:46 PM) I don't think it was as cut and dry as this. (a) it's a big country. we found bunkers we didn't know saddam had after we invaded. just because a group of 20 inspectors goes in and looks around doesn't mean they checked every possible place (B) they were never given enough time to complete the job. if i recall correctly saddam waited a long time before he let them in, and when he did he didn't cooperate fully. also the inspectors DID find weapons that were banned after the Gulf War the he said he got rid of but obviously didn't. The left can try to spin this all they want, but the fact was the majority of the world thought he had them. The best intelligence available said he had them. If you want to debate that the Bush admn tried to sell the war on shaky intelligence (my favorite was the mobile missile systems on semi-trucks), ok fine. But the evidence did exist and it was believed by the majority of the international intelligence community at the time. It wasn't fabricated like so many people think. They asked for more time, but Bush said he was going to start bombing. As for the evidence, yeah, it was out there, but as you said, it was all very, very shaky and barely verifiable. There was evidence that contradicted the assertions that he had weapons. There were clear indications that some of the intelligence was just complete garbage.

You think Heads is skinny? I've got 5 inches on him and only about 20 lbs... I'm going to be starting to work out myself this summer. I know I'm not going to get much bigger. I have a friend who is the exact same body type as me and had to work out non-stop for about 3 years to build up a good amount of muscle. That's not my goal, though. Just looking to get stronger and get my ass in shape.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 24, 2007 -> 08:40 AM) How did I know this thread would be back? It's kinda like Herpes, it never really goes away. It just flares up from time to time.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ May 24, 2007 -> 07:23 AM) The intelligence was wrong. Everyone in the WORLD's inteligence was wrong. And it's a nice mantra to say "Congress got duped!!! OMG!!!!"... that's utter bulls*** as well. And, like was already pointed out, there was evidence and information out there indicating that the intelligence was pure BS. Congress didn't get to see that. Congress was not privy to all of the information that the Executive was. They got to hear and see the intelligence that the Executive wanted them to hear and see. And not every intelligence agency in the world agreed 100% that Saddam had any weapons or was in any way, shape, or form a imminent threat. Any dissent, however, was brushed aside, ignored, or crushed by the Executive.

I think the future look was done to shift the focus off of "will they get off the island?" to "WTF is this island, and what happens between then (radio tower) and now (Jack at airport)." I don't think it was a "possible" future or anything like that. As far as Jack's dad goes, I think that he never told anyone he was dead.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ May 23, 2007 -> 08:21 AM) That's the plug-in car, yes? Cars that just pull a charge from elsewhere and use it up aren't really doing much to help either the environment or your gas bills. It just shifts the energy demand from the road to the power plant. A large-scale power plant is going to be more efficient than an internal combustion engine. QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 23, 2007 -> 10:30 AM) Definitely gives me more disposable income. Seems like a great idea for people in dense, urban areas. I'd definitely consider public transportation if it were a realistic option for people in the suburbs.
