  1. no s***? I used to work in Conroe...& the Woodlands. The Woodlands is nice now; all built around the golf course, etc...
  2. not much of a sample size there. not much history LOL...
  3. Isn't what they're doing out there called loitering? The neighborhood enables it. A bunch of college-aged assclowns on display. When, say, the Bulls won championships, there were nare-do-wells of all ages; a bunch of drunken crazy MF's. I look at the celebrations after the Cubs beat ATL and I was thinking "I wouldn't fit in with that crowd...whoever the hell they are..." BTW, anyone w/topless assclown chick pix, post 'em, please.
  4. No. His condition has no bearing on how I feel about the team does...sure, it'd be nice for him whatever.......Bulls***. So many old f***in' men have died similar deaths waiting for this s***ty franchise even to win a pennant. Have they won for Mr. f***in' Cub? Harry (tho his true team did win it all)? For all the saps paying over face value for tickets? Hell no!! I wish well for Ronnie, a class guy, top two or three in his position back then, but what happens to him doesn't change anything here w/regards to the team's play.
  5. It doesn't take an expert to respectfully disagree with that. Wood lives and dies by his control (or lack thereof). He's more about ball movement. If he can control it, it's as hard to hit as anyone's, at which point his velocity is used to throw it by the hitter after they've flailed away at breaking balls. When Wood cannot control his movement is when he lives and dies by the fastball, and that happens often. It just hasn't happened for about a month & ½.
  6. What book was the 4 straight from? I must've been a smart one in the poll, SS ...I never thought they'd pull this outta their ass. Wood's got the team by the balls now w/respect to contract negotiations...with his playoff and big game performance, he can throw his regular season record off the table when bargaining for the big bucks... ...and with that in mind...I'd drop Sosa in a heartbeat to free up some bucks for that.
  7. LMFAO!!! It could have been worse....it could have been Ronnie Woo's disgusting wang!
  8. True dat. Sosa's worst year in years has been the Cubs best in years...
  9. That would be non-sensical as Prior's remarks were in retaliation for what Morris said... I like it. All of it, from either team...
  10. I don't drink enough Labatt's...but every time I do it's excellent. I'm going to grab some next time I hit the liquor store. What's this 50-50 you speak of? I've just had the Blue...
  11. how come they didn't describe the 7 step process he takes to go to the bathroom?
  12. Even worse than that...Atl 3, Cubs 2, after the Cubs go up 2-0 (just like '84)
  13. The WTC was awesome, oldroman. It was like two Sears Towers right next to each other.....and they were the same width at the top, not like the Sears where only two of the nine "tubes" make it to the top of the building. Plus you could go outside on top the building for some truly amazing views. A great part of the city is the neighborhoods in the out boroughs though, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx (I hardly consider Staten Island part of NYC).
  14. Not sure how they could...they'd end up in the huge cavity there the WTC complex stood...
  15. Funny you mention this...I worked (here) with two guys from NYC proper. One guy was from the heart of Manhattan, the other on the far upper portion of manhattan (Inwood, further from Midtown than Brooklyn, Queens, and parts of the Bronx. While the guy from Inwood used to brag big time about his city (though he knew little of it being sheltered so far from it), the guy who grew up in the middle of it all recalled family trips to the suburban malls in New Jersey. When they'd be returning he'd be all bummed out, like "we gotta go back home now?" And where he lived it wasn't a bad hood, just congested as all hell.....the cement hell! I laugh when I see plantlife in Manhattan (Central Park notwithstanding).
  16. Ahhh, the big apple...used to work/live there. It's truly incredible, but I like the character of the people in Chicago more. That being said, if you live in NY for a long enough period, you will learn to love it, and there are tons of cool folks there too. It's unparalleled when you're single/young couple and want to party till all hours, or if you're filthy rich, but if you want any semblance of a suburban family life, you have to get out, way out. I would probably live in CT or NJ, and drive to the city when necessary. If I had no choice but to work in the city, I'd probably do NJ. Long Island blows unless you work out there...it would be unfathomable to me to take the LIE in to Manhattan, ever. They need about 6 lanes in either direction on all highways. There are no shoulders, so when a car breaks down, everyone's f***ed. NJ isn't as accessible since the WTC collapse, as the PATH train under the river is now defunct....the tunnels are downright scary even w/out the threat of terrorism. Northern NJ 'burbs have express buses to Port Authority which aren't bad. CT would be ideal, but I don't care for the parts closest to NYC (except the parts I can't afford...). I knew a lot of people from north of NYC (in New York state), but never hung out up there. Heard it's OK. And for the single guys, the strip clubs were stripped of all fun by Giuliani in the 90's. :finger
  17. the Sox players didn't deserve this s*** outta Manuel today...unf***in' real Wright just pitched like the glove was Manuel's face...nice job.
  18. never heard of Lis Franc before. Reading up on it shows that can really be an ordeal to get to heal up properly...
  19. THIEF!!!!! that's my line................................................ Chet Lemon, then.
