QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 04:57 PM) Megan Fox is the new Catwoman. No she isnt. Stupid tabloid rumor that fluff tv shows pick-up. Nolan hasn't even written the next Batman film yet. Also, he has proven he likes great actors to be in his films. Not names.

FIRE WALKER
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 08:32 AM) Ribbie FTW If not for bringing up Chuck Norris, but also for making me remember how awesomely bad that movie was. I loved the scene where CN broke the water bottle so he could cut the ropes that were binding him, and Louis Gossett Jr b****ed about it for the entire scene. Roger Ebert's review of this movie made me love him as a reviewer and as a great writer. He hated it and his review is awesome! http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.d.../611210303/1023

FIRE WALKER
I love that movie!!! Awesome idea for a thread! Norris and Gossett play Max Donigan and Leo Porter, two soldiers of fortune, whose adventures seem to almost never result in any notable gain, are befriended by an inscrutable woman of mystery Patricia (Melody Anderson). Patricia's map leads them on a quest for treasure in Central America. The name of the movie comes from the powerful guardian of the treasure. Who we never see walk on fire though. This movie is famous for a fight scene in which Norris singlehandedly defeats almost every male customer in a Mexican bar and destroys the bar in the process. What other bad 80s action flicks can we discuss as well? How about Mega Force!?!

Important Quotes from KW and AJP
QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 01:31 PM) Everyone knows whats at stake. For guys like Pods, Thome and Dye- this may be their final run with us. The time is now for them to step up. In 2004 when we fell short of the playoffs, KW used his imagination to the extreme! Let Maggs and Valentin walk via free agency. Trade Lee for Pods, Vizciano. Sign Dye, El-duque, AJ, Hermanson and Iguchi. And prior to 2004 ending KW aqcuired Contreras, Everett and Garcia via midseason trades. This year KW aqcuired Peavy, Rios and Pena via midseason trades. Will he let Dye, Thome, Dotel and Contreras walk via free agency? What big name will he trade similar to Lee? What free agents will he sign? Maybe missing the playoffs in 2009 (although would suck) maybe a blessing in disguise. I have been saying this for awhile...the similarities are amazing between this year and 2004.

Baseball rule interpretation
If the runner crosses home plate before the runner at second is called out, then yes the run does count. We just saw a version of this over the weekend when, I believe, Carlos was called out at third after a hit by AJ. Thome was at second but did not cross the plate before Carlos was tagged. So the run did not count.

Are the Sox done?
I always hope, but it will never happen, that the posters who say the Season is OVER and this team is DEAD put their "money where their mouths" are... Stop posting. Stay away from the White Sox since there is no reason to watch them or talk about them until the off-season. The rest of us will engage in non-hyperbolic discussions about an underachieving team in a very winnable division. Knowing full well that once playoffs are reached anything could happen. Thank you and I hope to see you back in in time for the Winter Meetings. Until then have a great Aug/Sept away from the White Sox.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 04:21 PM) For someone unfamiliar with the comic book women, I thought Watchmen was a great movie. I'm sure many would disagree, but from my perspective it's just below Dark Knight in the superhero genre. fixed for you...- Favre Signing with Vikings today
Since Lovie took over the Bears were 6-2 against Favre and the pack... And he's not as good anymore...- What is your general feeling about the White Sox?
I could see going after Chone Figgins to play LF/leadoff and move Q to RF. Keep the same infield.- Alphabetical Conversation Thread
Nearing the end of this???- What is your general feeling about the White Sox?
There seems to be a general feeling like 2003/2004, where the talent is there but there is a lack of motivation or hunger.- Films Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 17, 2009 -> 09:12 AM) Obviously I wanted to see District 9 this weekend, and will do so with some buddies this week. That being said, I owed one to my wife and saw "The Time Traveler's Wife". It was a f***ing good movie. I held back the tears, too. Call me what you will, though, that movie was great. jk...i saw it too...- Films Thread
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 16, 2009 -> 08:25 PM) District 9 was fantastic. District 9 brought it, served it and then kicked my ass as I was having dessert! Fantastic film.- Thats a White Sox Winner!!
