  1. If he recovers and makes the HoF someday, I'm betting against him wearing a Sox hat.
  2. Jason were you talking about this one? Or this one?
  3. Kirsten Dunst looks like everybody's cousin. Now Catherine Bell on the other hand...
  4. Minnesota is the front runner for the central until someone proves otherwise.
  5. And there's defense in hunting? skiing? track and field? huh? I'd argue that you probably do more walking playing 18 holes of golf than in a day of hunting (all PGA tour players walk btw). I'm not dismissing hunting as a non-sport but whoever says golf is not a sport hasn't played enough to know what they're talking about.
  6. All-in-Wonders are great if that is what you are looking for. The main feature is the video in which lets you use your computer like a TV basically. Just make sure this is what your son wants. Otherwise I would recommend a 9800 Pro which costs about the same but is faster than the 9600 and doesn't have the video in plugs. EasyShare sounds really cool too although I've never tried it. Basically you can use the computer to decode TV signals and then send them to any other computer on the network and watch them as streaming video. This probably takes up considerable amounts of your home network bandwidth though.
  7. Welcome back Nuke. So what did you buy us?
  8. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/news/story?id=1936592 Full text of the article there. It says he was granted full immunity and that his brother also admitted to using banned substances. I expect this won't be the last of these confessions.
  9. Wouldn't that mean it's neutral?
  10. If you're smart about it and know exactly what you want, Black Friday is a great experience. I feel guilty in taking pleasure watching the lost masses look for stuff that was sold out an hour ago. Store managers yelling at customers is also good, it's like payback for all the s*** they have to take the rest of the year.
  11. It's here, it's here, it's finally here!!!! Getting ready to go out in a bit, hope I'm not the only one.
  12. With Brokaw leaving too, Peter Jennings is now big man on campus.
  13. Am I the only one who likes presidents alot more after they become ex-presidents? It's like they've become a part of our nation's history and their pictures will one day grace the walls of grade schools with all the others. I wonder if I'll like Dubya in four years too.
  14. GWPM: 104 NWPM: 104 I might be able to get up to 110 GWPM but my net would suffer.
  15. ChicagoFan I think you made a typo in your screename.
  16. If anyone has seen the clip of Argentina basketball where the player sucker punches the ref about half his size, that is probably the hardest punch I have ever seen. The ref I believe lost sight in one eye and had to retire.
  17. I know one thing, after seeing that video, a number of fans will think twice before throwing s*** at an NBA player. The reason most people including myself would never do such a thing is called fear of retaliation. If fans can go watch a team they love lose to a team they hate and express their hatred by throwing s*** at visiting players without fear of retribution, that creates a scary situation for professional sports. As for the fans who went onto the court, they have none of my sympathy. The court is for the players and the officials, once you cross the line you deserve what you get. As for Wallace, he is only to blame for everything that happened before the cup/bottle was thrown at Artest. The Wallace/Artest fight was for all intents and purposes over before players went into the crowd.
  18. I wonder if they will keep anything of the Expos as a tribute. Maybe the logo can be similar but the M flipped upside-down? I know it's just wishful thinking.
  19. I heard about this as well. Far worse than any racism encountered before according to the athletes. FIFA is really upset at Spain in general right now.
  20. Who's to say that Russian technology for these ICBMs wouldn't eventually make it to Iran, N. Korea etc.? The pie in the sky idea of a missile shield will always make the military types drool, but by the time you build one, it's already obsolete.
  21. I like that episode where Joe Rogan yells stuff like "YOU GOT SIXTY SECONDS" and "YOU GOTTA PICK UP THE PACE". I love how he just stands there in his parka when people are jumping in ice water or in his nice clean sweater when people are jumping in tanks full of blood. That has got to be the best job in the world. And don't tell me he doesn't hand pick the chicks on that show. It's like that Seinfeld episode with the waitresses only in bikinis.
  22. They are only the best. Good prices, fast shipping, the best customer support. They will let you return just about anything without asking too many questions. Check them out on resellerratings.com and you will see few big stores come close. They also have regularly and randomly occurring specials that are great deals. I bought a mobo and CPU combo from them and they took something like $50 off because I bought them together. They even threw in a free pen.
  23. Cuz it sure beats going to Ground Zero and killing ourselves...or maybe we're just too lazy.
