Video Game Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (Nixon @ May 15, 2009 -> 12:39 PM) Would apply to that game too. Thank you. Fallout 3 is trash. If the actual fighting in the game was better, then it would be great. However, its not. And its not great. Sure, the story is cool and it looks cool. The fighting engine sucks hefty wang though and angered me.

QUOTE (rangercal @ May 12, 2009 -> 09:17 PM) no heart Gimme a break, winning on the road without Howard and Lee in Philly to clinch that series was enough to show me they have heart. I don't know what your definition of heart is, but having a huge lead and letting the other team back in it is more of laziness and not finishing than it is heart. If they didn't have any heart, they would have lost to Philadelphia.

Orlando deserves to lose They have barely been able to keep sizable leads with little time remaining all playoffs. They need to pull their head out of their ass and finish games.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 8, 2009 -> 08:20 AM) They even fixed that in a line in the film. They say something to the effect of, "the bonding process has not completed". It's an easy fix, so i don't mind it. What they did with Yeah, the only thing I can think of is he wasn't ready to go yet that's why he looked the way he did.

ETA: YOUTH MOVEMENT?
QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 8, 2009 -> 11:04 PM) this is a great point. if you want to see the sox add to their league-leading tally of being shutout, then bring up the kiddies. Besides, It's the second week of May and we're four games back - I'm not convinced this team can't compete if they can get on track. This division is up for grabs. It doesn't really matter much to me if we lose 6-0 or 6-5, its a loss regardless. And im not saying we need to trade everyone and bring up a bunch of prospects now, sure we are 4 games back but its also between 4 teams and by your logic we really shouldn't count Cleveland out either. If it wasn't such a wide margin, ide be fine to let it play out. The fact that its close is only bad for us. I know im not the only one who doesn't want to see this team win between 80-85 games and make the wrong moves while falling short anyways.

ETA: YOUTH MOVEMENT?
QUOTE (lostfan @ May 8, 2009 -> 10:58 PM) How does dumping everyone help? Well Dye, Konerko, Jenks, Thornton, and Dotel doing good doesn't seem to be helping much right now either. Aside from keeping us near .500 and not completely in the cellar of MLB. Making the future brighter for this team is why I would like to see this stuff happen. Its going to need to be done eventually here anyways.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 8, 2009 -> 10:52 PM) If you do that, you better get top notch quality, can't-miss prospects in return. You better be SURE they are going to be stars, because nobody is going to trade good major league players off contending teams for those guys. We'll be getting prospects. I wouldn't go that far, I bet there would be a few teams who would trade a young MLB guy in a package for a Dye or Konerko and a chance at a World Series if they both continue to look like they are going to give you .300 30 100. And I know Konerko hasn't hit many HRs but if he keeps hitting like he is the track record is there anyways. And who cares if all we get are prospects, as long as they are good ones. This team is only getting older and slower by each game and its not like we are going to shell out big money for a superstar anyways. The more good prospects we have, the better the chance of some of them panning out. If we make those deals, we also clear a lot of salary and will be able to have a lot more room to fill out the roster through free agency. We would still have Quentin, Ramirez, Danks, MB, Floyd, Getz to go along with guys like Poreda, Beckham, Flowers, Viciedo, and are other young guys who look like they could contribute down the line. Add in what we get from those players being dealt and the salary relief I think that is exactly what we need. My team for the rest of this season as currently as I can get it would be 1. 2B Getz 2. SS Ramirez 3. LF Quentin 4. DH Thome 5. 1B Betemit 6. C Pierzynski 7. 3B Fields 8. RF Nix 9. CF Anderson OF Podsednik OF Wise IF/OF Lillibridge 3B/1B Phillips C Miller SP Buehrle SP Floyd SP Danks SP Colon SP Richard MR Broadway MR Carassco MR Contreras MR Whisler MR Link CL Linebrink Not good, im aware of this. If we are going to play like trash anyways, whats the difference. Stop lying to the fans already, we can clearly see this team is not that good and needs to be remade. I think they would get more support if they actually made an effort to rebuild this thing than doing nothing. If they are going to play Nix in RF, might as well see what hes got out there and see if thats going to be an option. As far as the MR goes, I am only going on what we could have now and not any other moves that could be made.

Ide like to see.. Dye Konerko Jenks Thornton Dotel All traded before the deadline We aren't going to be spending money in the offseason, legit spending that is, so by trying to trade these guys for good pieces we can use next season and beyond would benefit us not only for the future but being able to let us actually spend some money in the offseason on pieces to fill out what we need to reach the budget anyways.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:36 AM) What questions? What position will they start at? They will both play ALOT this year. The only question around Smith was how the f*** is he so damn good with huge b**** tits. Andre Smith got suspended for the Sugar Bowl and dissapeared from the combine without telling anyone. Maualuga is only a two down linebacker in the NFL in the eyes of many teams obviously. Of course, he could prove wrong but well see.

I dunno, there are still questions about Andre Smith and Rey Maualuga, not to mention the loss of TJ. They will be better for sure, but I don't know how much better.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 30, 2009 -> 10:03 PM) I think what he meant to say is that usually when teams trade their next years first, its because they believe they are on the brink of contending. Therefore their 1st is most likely going to be a late round pick, so they are getting a guy in the 2nd they want. McDaniels traded the Broncos pick which could be a very high pick. I don't think their pick is going to be a top 5 like most people seem to think.. Kyle Orton isn't a bad QB, but he isn't a great one either. Point being, its not like they are starting a rookie or some scrub they signed to place hold. They have a decent QB in place, McDaniels thinks his system is going to carry on just fine. They have another 1st anyways, and he prolly thinks they aren't gonna be that bad. KC and Oakland aren't going to be that good, I don't think its a stretch that Denver can be 7-9 or 8-8 this year. Especially with games against KC 2X, Oakland 2X, Cincinnati, and Cleveland
