The Last of Us looks amazing.

Konerko scratched, per 670 The Score. Ruh oh. Is that why he's been hitting like s*** recently?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 05:31 PM) So what you are saying here is that you caused his mild heart attack What a monster that JoeCoolMan is...

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 05:34 PM) MLB Network voted him #2 behind Michael Young. The MLBN Facebook page voted him #2 behind Carlos Ruiz. To me #2 on both lists is true underrated-ness. If you're #1 are you truly underrated? Michael Young's not underrated when everyone thinks he's underrated. No seriously though, Young's actually OVERRATED. Some guy gave him a #1 MVP vote last year. Really?

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 04:21 PM) Yep, I agreed with most all of it. I didn't read anything that made me say "what?" Except he said Delmon Young can hold his own in LF, which he definitely cannot do.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) Someone has not used Google's Play Music. I mean, my entire library from anywhere for free, and the interface is top notch. I have music collection OCD. Google Music offers no real music player options (where's my sound settings?). They tend to compress my album art and they look low quality. Other than that, it's an alright app.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 02:09 PM) Every pitcher looks weird when they throw. Here's Buehrle: Look at Chris Sale's body. It's like that jersey is twice as big as he is. It's not so much that his arm looks weird while he's throwing (I know that everybody's arm looks weird when they throw), it's just that he's so skinny. It's freakish.

The three things I like about iOS: 1. The music player...although it's stupidly stupid that you have to go through iTunes or some kind of sync mechanism for that. Music players on Android offer more options, but they either look like crap or are missing obvious options. 2. Uniformity. An iPhone 4 can still play the latest games on the App Store. Why? Because it's a hell of a lot easier to develop for a set of devices that are similar in architecture than 100 with completely different chipsets. Fragmentation is a huge issue with Android, but that's expected when you have 10 different companies making phones. 3. Updates. I can get an update from iTunes anytime I want, right when Apple decides to roll it out. Android? Well, I gotta go through all kinds of loops to get Android 4.0 running on a non-Google phone. Nexus phones are great. You get great hardware with almost immediate updates. Got a Galaxy S II? Well, you're screwed. Samsung and whatever carrier you have will delay the update for like months. The Galaxy S II was released a year ago. T-Mobile JUST gave it an ICS update, 7 months after the firmware was released. The main issue with Android is that you have too many parties doing too many different things. That can be a great thing (competition) or it can be a terrible thing (fragmentation, slow update process). On the other hand, Apple's advantages are due to their uniformity and closed system. Unfortunately, the closed system really sucks (especially for me). I personally think Android is a great platform and anybody who has some sort of a technical background will really appreciate all the extra things you can do on it.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 01:19 PM) http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/DROID...d=mobile-phones Also, I do love my iPod. I just am the one person in the world who, when I have a problem with one, the Apple Store hates apparently. There's a difference between a droid Razr and just a Razr. Droid = Verizon branding.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 01:11 PM) I hate the world. I voted 75 goddamn times for them and nothing? f*** Fielder. Fatman sucks. Konerko's wOBA is 80 points higher while not sucking as much in the field. People puzzle me. The majority of baseball fans are stupid.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 11:47 PM) The Cubs have a vast and storied history with their center fielders of the future. Like Felix Pie, Corey Patterson, Brett Jackson, etc...

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 01:08 AM) Yikes! Caption this photo? That picture looks so out of whack. Is Sale really THAT skinny? Let's hope his metabolism slows down soon. Jeebus.

QUOTE (Papa Tru @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 11:26 AM) No s*** kid. I was talking about iPhone in comparison to a regular cell phone, not every phone. It's 2012, regular cell phones are basically smart phones. Why would you even bother to compare a Motrola Razr with an iPhone? Totally different era.

Ricky Romero has a 4.6 FIP this season. His 4.04 ERA isn't all that impressive either.

QUOTE (Papa Tru @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 09:40 PM) lol Anyone trashing an iPhone has obviously never owned one. Its literally one of the greatest things I have ever owned. I can watch my MLB.tv on it, I have legit games, Netflix, a butt load of music.. it does so much, that's why people say "iPhone" and not just cell phone. A regular cell phone is a piece of s*** compared to an iPhone. Android does all of that without the limitations iOS presents.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 06:03 PM) Ok. Is this supposed to mean something to me? Because it doesn't. I'm just sayin' man, let those people who choose Apple do whatever the hell they want. If they want a lesser device for more money, more power to them. There's no use in going on a rant or anti-Apple campaign. It's literally pointless. You're not going to change the opinion of some Apple fanboy. It sure as hell won't bother me when they brag about it. Because I know that their iPhone or iPad isn't really all that great.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 05:43 PM) That is private parking........................Cubs have nothing close to $42.00 parking that is Cub owned Mr. Fact. That's cause they don't have any parking lots.

Yeesh, I hate Apple as much as you do Joe, but I sure as hell don't make it an agenda to spew bad s*** about their overpriced locked down devices every chance I get.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 4, 2012 -> 12:52 PM) Well average is just one component of on base percentage. I could understand being frustrated by a low average, even if it was accompanied by a high OBP, if the hitter didn't hit for power. But Dunn gives you the power you're looking for to go along with the high OBP...would it be a heck of a lot different if he hit .300 and just walked half as much? Single is more valuable than a walk, at least from a linear weight perspective. Not by much though. Either way, Dunn doesn't get out that much and when he does get hits, they go a long way. I don't see how Dunn isn't at least a B after what he went through last year.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 10:52 PM) You can always count on this. They toss in some token ones for the Celtics so it doesn't look entirely like an inside job. Plus, there's no way they would let Boston win this in 6. They need to milk 7 games out of this series.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 10:52 PM) You got a 95 mile Metra train....................I grow tired of the take the train s***............If I could take the train, I would not b**** about the cost of parking! I said unless you live very far away.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 10:48 PM) ya that monster game rondo had in miami that went to waste. hopefully game 5 is great. You just know Miami is winning that one unless both LeBron and Wade s*** the bed. Home teams always win, especially pivotal game 5s. Count on every close call going the Heat's way.

QUOTE (High Mileage @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 10:25 PM) Royals uber-prospect Wil Myers is dominating Triple-A with the Omaha Storm Chasers. In 18 games, just 67 at-bats, Wil is hitting .343/.389/.716 with 6 homers and 18 RBI. He's playing a fine centerfield as well. Royals now a game back of Detroit. If I told you that to start the year, you'd have thought the Royals would be in second place.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 10:43 PM) Horrible defense by Daniels to allow Wade that open look, Boston is lucky to have this series tied. I think the Heat are lucky to have this series tied. They've played like s*** the last 3 games. It's not like Boston's playing much better, but it could be 3-1 Celtics right now.
