Anyone here have Mass Effect 3 on PS3 and want to play online? I hate multiplayer with people I don't know. PSN: Quinarvy_Ethil

My opinion on this is that sometimes writers write something just to tell a compelling story. Unlike what English teachers like to believe, not every literary piece has a deep philosophical, political meaning.

We have the best closer prospect in baseball. Let's make our long relief/spot starter the closer.

On the other hand, Katniss' personal design crew are very artistic/avant garde/Hollywood-influenced, so the Santorum folks would argue they represent the decaying moral/cultural values of Washington and the popular culture at-large. Not once while I was reading the book last year did I think "You know, this book is full of political allegory!"

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 24, 2012 -> 05:42 PM) How is Hunger Games the same as a documentary on the Bush administration? Actually, don't answer that. Don't need to go further with this. QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 24, 2012 -> 05:46 PM) Some people see meaning in everything. A book/movie is sometimes just a book/movie, not political symbolism. THANK YOU.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 24, 2012 -> 05:01 PM) the politics of the hunger games world is like the central plot point, though Yes, but not everything is about Republicans and Democrats, 99% and Tea Party.

Or instead, young adults. Not everything is politics.

Damn Bobby, I hope he can recover from that quickly. But he NEEDS to lose weight. I'm not even close to Bobby's size and I have back pain. I can't imagine the pain he's in.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Mar 23, 2012 -> 04:27 PM) Now you're just giving me ideas for things to do at this game.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 23, 2012 -> 09:15 AM) UNSUSTAINABLE. You're right. My rookie year I had hit .380 (from late July onward, was a call-up) with 7 HR. I got benched for hitting a walk off HR and not taking a pitch. LaRussa made me play 3B, where I sucked defensively and my goals were .997 fielding percentage AND take walks.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 09:19 AM) The team's fortunes will likely rest on the four horsemen of underachievement from 2011: Dunn, Rios, Beckham and Peavy. IF all of them, or even three of them, get to where their talent/averages have been, this team will be well above .500. If, say, one or none of them recover in a meaningful way, I could see this team having a 2007-like record. War = Peavy Famine = Dunn Death = Rios Conquest = Beckham

In my RTTS two years ago, I hit .375 in the majors, with 2 walks, on a full year.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 23, 2012 -> 01:45 AM) I mean, f***, good poster, but we don't need to honor him. Jesus. I thought the same for half a second. Then I felt stupid. Then not old.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Mar 21, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) All the thesauri in the world wouldn't help to adequately describe . s*** gets real at the 1:10 mark.

DAMN at the Saints. Ahahaha at Tebow. How long before he complains, like he did in HS?

Stewart needs to be starting in AAA. He, Molina, or Castro will all be interesting to watch. Santiago and Axelrod should be the long men.

LOL @ TEBOW NOT EVEN FLORIDA

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 10:25 PM) If we didn't have the bum, Dunn, we could DH Viciedo the next 15 years (if his age is not a lie) and be done with it. For the love of God you don't DH a 23 year old.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 03:28 PM) Scalabrine really is one of the better minds on an NBA bench, and he's a good "clubhouse" guy. Noc would have no place here AND he'd provide no bench value. Sorry, if we're depending on Noc vs Wade and LeBron, season's over anyway. If the team liked their chemistry so much they refused to shake things up to go after a starting level SG, they sure aren't going to in order to bring in Andres Nocioni. I'm not saying dump Scal, just make him the 13thback man over James or Scal, because he can at least be an enforcer.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 02:28 PM) That would so absolutely never happen. Until they finally force Scal into a bench coach position, he's here as last man off the bench while Thibs is here. Or until we need someone to give a foul/piss Wade off. Who can do it better? Also NOC-I-ONI > SCAL-A-BRINE

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 19, 2012 -> 02:13 PM) I always liked Noc. Have the 76ers waived him? What kind of shape is he in? Is he still a solid defender and average to a little above average 3 point shooter? Buried in Philly. Got waived. His Per36 numbers are basically the same, a little worse, but fine for what he'd provide. - Enforcer - Pisses Wade and LBJ off - Stretch four if we go small - Energy/heart - Deng's BFF I'd MUCH rather him than Scal at the end of the bench.

I feel bad for him, but man, since it's not serious it's hilarious considering it shows how bad their D will be.

I want Noc back in a Bulls uniform solely for the purpose of pissing LBJ and Wade off.

I'm still trying to reason how Peyton could have possibly not wanted San Francisco.
