ISU as an 11. I'd take it.

Also, replying to a post about a video game in the TV thread probably isn't my finest moment.

QUOTE (SnB @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 07:57 AM) I've been playing FIFA 12 exclusively for the last 6 months and I am completely addicted. The dynasty mode is really something else once you dive into it. I sim 2 out of every 3 regular season games and play all cup/tourney games just to get through more seasons. I've learned a TON about world soccer and its format while playing the game. Just a blast. I only play online. Maybe I'll have to try dynasty.

I had a nice time when I was there. Except for the Sox losing of course.

I love seeing Rios celebrating with his teammates. The guy looked miserable all of last year. Something tells me he didn't get along with Oz.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 3, 2012 -> 12:31 PM) No, I'm trying to beat down having that feeling about the Men's basketball team. Why? I want them to win every game by 100.

My friend has that Adam Dunn bobblehead. It's pretty great.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 11:58 AM) Too bad most kids these days are fat. They still have to hear about it every day from the good looking kids.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 11:40 AM) i have dozens of gay friends, and most, if not all, have experienced really hateful instances of being ridiculed or discriminated against. I personally know guys who have been together for over 10 years, but don't get any benefits. I've gotten near to blows with drunk bums on the subway for berating gay couples. It's painful how much gays in this country have to put up with. Why do you think kids are killing themselves at such an alarming rate? High school is bad for everyone. It's worse for gay kids. That's probably not going to change anytime soon. It's also bad to be fat, ugly, short, poor, black, hispanic. I also associate with dozens of gay people that I like but don't really consider more than about 5-7 people true "friends." I'm really sorry that you're friends have been treated that way and I fully support them in their fight. I just think that it's really not as bad as civil rights were for black people. I'm not saying it's not horrible but that s*** was super violent and I think the hate was more on the surface. I wasn't there so I guess I wouldn't know. We're moving in the right direction and I hope it continues.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 07:55 AM) Then either you don't know anyone who is gay or you're not paying attention. One of probably 4 good friends is gay. I never see any type of discrimination against him. He's also not a stereotype so unless he's with his boyfriend it would be impossible to know. I'm only in my 20's so I don't know any gay couples that would be considered married. I've never known anyone that was fired for being gay or turned away from living somewhere. That's ridiculous if it's truly happening. I am completely on the side of having the government just give all couples equal civil unions and if you want the title of marriage from a church you can go get married in a church.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 02:06 AM) Of course I wanted the Sox to dump him. He was a disaster. There were a few people that said he'd return to his norm. Looks like a lot of GMs agreed with me. Not one GM saw Dunn turning it around, because nobody tried to trade for him. Whoever said the Sox should keep Dunn no matter what, stand up and take a bow. He's having a very good season. I'll take my bow now. However, Dunn was probably my favorite non-sox player in baseball for about 10 years so I was kind of biased.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 01:59 AM) That's cause he was the worst player in baseball history for a single season. Like I was the only one. LOL ... You certainly weren't the only one, but you were the most vocal on this site.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 01:50 AM) It amazes me how teams sign guys in the offseason to huge deals, then once reality sets in and the team is five or more games out at the trading deadline, the teams try like crazy to get rid of the contracts. Wild. Coming from the guy that was desperate to get rid of Dunn last year.

Reddy sounds like me when I was 17. The constant comparisons to the civil rights with blacks is laughable. I'm about as liberal as it gets but seriously Gays have very nearly the same rights as you or I. I'd love to see them be able to get legally married and all but I have never seen anyone openly discriminate against someone because they are gay. The government should just make everything civil unions and let the churches call what they do marriage if you ask me.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 12:40 PM) NBC is streaming everything on their site if you sign up. Not from what I can tell. Pretty sure you have to a cable plan, which I do not. f***ing Blows. I'd pay to be able to stream it.

QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 05:18 PM) I like the 14,000 square foot house comment the best, do not remember how exactly it went, but that was great. Have not heard much about Catfish this year. You're selling Paulie short. He's got himself a 16,000 square foot house in Scottsdale.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jul 20, 2012 -> 02:18 PM) so by eating the food you're supporting the politics... but that doesn't matter to you? Doesn't matter to me at all. It's a franchise. I'm sure an incredibly tiny fraction of my money goes to anti gay rights groups. My vocal support of gay rights is worth more than that. When I was 19 I probably would've cared.

Ate Chick Fil A for lunch today; don't like their politics but love the food.

Tough to choose between Sale and Rios. I went with Sale.

I wouldn't mind Darko.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 17, 2012 -> 07:26 AM) my friend is doing one of those crazy all-three-movies-in-a-row shows Thursday night. I'll be seeing it on IMAX Sunday afternoon I don't know how people can do that. When I finish one movie the last thing I want to do is see another.

Another fan of Encyclopedia Brown here. I checked out every single one I could get my hands on at the Library after my dad made me read one.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 17, 2012 -> 10:12 AM) Is is the brooms? Because you do basically forget about those at some point. Sorry Quin but this does look like the stupidest game ever and I love Harry Potter. Can't kids just play Ultimate Frisbee anymore?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 17, 2012 -> 05:55 PM) Why can't there ever be a hot stalker? They're called groupies?
