QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:30 PM) seriously though , i doubt if anyone really cares if you like Zune, it's just fun to laugh at Microsoft failures. How was it a failure?

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:26 PM) Ok for those of us with RCN that cannot get CSN, who has a link to the game? Try this one a little after game time..... http://www.sportwebz.com/live/190377-mlb-d...vivo/gratis/tv/ You will probably have to download StreamTorrent, but it's a safe program, and quite useful for streaming games.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:19 PM) having a zune is pobably fashionable now. Apple is for conformist non-cool people. so you rode out the storm and won. I don't give a s*** about being fashionably or cool. And I'm not sure what "storm I rode out". But anyway, answer my original question. Why is it funny that I own a Zune HD? I love for you to prove my point.

I know almost nothing about the Jewish faith, so what is moving the game from 7:10 to 1:10 going to do?

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:12 PM) u used to use clippy for advice? I had no idea what "clippy" was until you posted it. I mean the fact that you need to laugh at someone for not having a device that isn't "cool" or what everyone else has. Who the f*** cares? Why is it funny that I have Zune HD? I don't get the joke. I don't laugh at people for not wearing Northface, or for not driving a Lexus, or for not wearing Nikes. That's f***ing s*** you'd see if Mean Girls or the girls from Clueless would do. Such a high school girl mentality of elitism when it comes to consumer goods.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:11 PM) What about your materialism for the Zune? You've been ranting and raving about this device for years. Maybe elitism is a better word.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:07 PM) f***ing zune. did Microsoft happen to patent Clippy? I hope so. See, that attitude right there is why I hate a lot of my generation when it comes to materialism. Thanks for being a perfect example of someone I hate, Mr. Genius.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 06:57 PM) The zune hd IS outdated today, as are ALL stand alone MP3 players. Disagree completely.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 06:42 PM) Why exactly? Do you even remember betamax? Betamax was revolutionary technology that unfortunately was released as a proprietary platform for only one and then a small number of hardware manufacturers. They also never got the full buy in from the media companies. The Zune is a proprietary platform produced by only one supplier correct? And it was somewhat passed by by a more universally accepted technology? Telling me to "move on" from Zune HD and "move on" from Betamax aren't even close. Zune HD is still relevant today. It's not outdated. Maybe in 20 years I will "move on" from the Zune HD when technology has completely blown past it and it's so old it's not even relevant anymore. *In before, "Zune HD was never relevant. Har har har" jokes*

Well, I guess the Ludacris CD isn't coming out today.....?

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 03:49 PM) So was BetaMax. Move on. Not sure you could have thought of a more terrible analogy, really.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 12:19 PM) Except Joe likes Zunes...and those are like 1% of the MP3 player userbase. I like the Zune HD, because it's f***ing awesome.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 03:18 AM) I would say Donnie Veal has earned a spot in the bullpen next year. He can have Thornton's spot.

There were 30K people there tonight? Wow.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 11:53 PM) Do you want to see what some Tigers fans are saying? They sound as over-reactionary as some people here. "I just do not understand why they have not released him yet... Seriously he must give good bj's or something... Guy is hitting .172 with 1 Hr and the season is almost over... But that is good enough to not only start but to hit 2nd on a team trying to win a division... I guarantee pretty much every other team would have cut him by now " "Oh well. One step closer to Leyland being gone. " "Lol this team is just like the team that finished last in the division a few years back. " "This night has effectively ended our season imo " 1st comment isn't wrong. 2nd comment is kind of dumb. 3rd comment is insane. 4th comment could have some truth.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 11:30 PM) I wish I could have been ITT earlier to give you all s*** for nay-saying in the first 4 or so innings of this game. I can only imagine how negative it got. Pretty much just about our unclutch offense that was....2-18 tonight with RISP?

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 04:14 PM) Samsung, HTC, Nokia, Motorola...well, all of them partake in this exact same nonsense...yet you single out Apple? That doesn't make you sound biased or anything. It's because I AM BIASED! I f***ing hate Apple. I don't know why every time I make a comment about them, people are surprised. I'm not hiding my feeling about them. I hope the company goes bankrupt, and Steve Job's ghost will stop "reinventing" and "revolutionizing" everything. Somehow I think I'll survive with Apple. I don't even eat the fruit, because I hate them so much! Actually, that's a lie. I absolutely love apples. Apple juice, apple cider, apple pie, apple slices. I'll buy ANYTHING apple! (heh, heh, sounds familiar)

Every game we win from here one out, will be the most enjoyable. This is crunch time. Every W is huge.

Try the Veal! Try the Veal!

Oh man, my feed is like 6 minutes behind. This is awesome. 2/4 wins in this series would be huge.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 09:40 PM) People who were penciling him in as the Sox #3 starter did not expect him to have a sub 2 ERA because that's best in MLB ACE kind of numbers. In fact most comparisons I saw was, Mark Buehrle, middle of the order type pitcher that will give you 200 innings and can be lights out on occasion, when hitting his spots. Gordo! Did a little digging, and in the 2nd half predictions poll, you voted Jose Quintana as the most likely player to continue his early season success in the 2nd half. That he would pitch like "a prime Mark Buehrle" through the 2nd half. That was July 6th, when he had a 2.06 ERA......

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 09:44 PM) Somehow I don't recall anyone saying he would have an era of 2 all season long... Do we have a giant facepalm button? I need one for half of these replies....

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 09:40 PM) Cmon you can not take credit for predicting that he would not have a sub-2 ERA for the entire season hahahahahaha The top pitchers in the league dont even do that......Do you work with Ms Cleo by any chance? That's not what I said. I said he was LUCKY AS HELL to have that sparkling ERA. Most people here, at the time, didn't think Quintana was LUCKY AS HELL to be putting up the numbers he did. They thought he was actually a dominant pitcher. I kept referring to him as getting by with smoke and mirrors, and people gave me s*** for being pessimistic about him. And.....poof, smoke thinning and mirrors getting cloudy.
