QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 04:35 PM) Cubs. Easy. October, 2003 was arguably the worst month of my life until a hero, a champion, a wonder to behold, a dear good friend of mine intervened and put an end to the horror that had been that month: Mr. Steven Bartman.

f*** Morneau and the Twins. Disappointed there's more Tigers than Twins votes.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 10:30 AM) So, watching the olympics, it's pretty amazing seeing peak Lebron James. I'm pretty sure it's just in the books the heat will win 2 in a row. Nope, Derrick Rose will have the most miraculous recovery in history and defeat the Heat in 7.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 09:16 AM) Time to boycott the NBA: http://www.thebiglead.com/index.php/2012/0...ic-vs-the-lgbt/ Or I'll boycott the Magic. Or just not be mad at Dwight.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 09:57 PM) and three hours from now youll end up on the wiki article for iphone having no idea how you got there. Hate those stupid wiki sessions where you just keep clicking and clicking and end up on something that isn't even close to what you started with. Fun fact: If you click the first the wiki-link in each article (outside of the parentheses) you end up at Philosophy eventually. For example, this just worked with "Mass Effect" "Mars" "Chimichanga" and "Chicago White Sox"

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 02:40 AM) greg is really an outstanding guy. Who cares that he has a hard-on for ozzie as I do snooki and j-wwow. greg is great. I know. It's just since Robin was hired, he and I rarely agree. I documented the exact moment in the Robin Ventura Hired thread. But greg is pretty awesome.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 01:55 AM) Fox Sports shouldn't have gone there. That segment sickened me. Sometimes people forget these gymnasts are 16 f***ing years old. They don't even have driver's licenses in some cases. Shut the f*** up, adults. GREG AND I AGREE.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 08:47 PM) You would need to increase the atmospheric pressure substantially. The surface cannot currently support life. At some point in the past, Mars had a denser atmosphere. There is a possibilit of supporting life underground, but deep into the rocks. Stop using geological knowledge to crush my dreams. I'm currently in Wiki-freefall because I looked up Terraforming...then Terraforming of Mars...then Colonization of Mars.

I love when Gordon hits the ball.

Man, I now am stuck thinking about how cool it'd be to have a terraformed Mars. Sad it won't happen in my lifetime.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 08:35 PM) There will be plenty of color images. If you could find liquid water to plant next to...you'd be quite famous. You'd also have totally overturned thermodynamics. Ok, I need a rocket, some pop-tarts, and a battery powered heater. (The whole plant seeds thing was quite facetious. I know they want to find out if it can support life, most likely so they could terraform it)

Two things: 1) Sad it's not in color. 2) Should have attached seeds to it, plant near water. LET IT PLANT LIFE TO BUILD OXYGEN.

ADA is a pimp.

nice K.

Good read by Frenchy.

1-2-3 for Quetzalcoatl.

Why Mass Effect 2 is one of the greatest games ever made. This reminded me how much I love ME2. The story was ungodly great. I loved all those characters. Felt pain when Ashley turned her back on Horizon. None of my squad died, but I was terrified that they would. All the characters became people. Mordin: Silly, quirky doctor to deeply troubled man trying to atone for his actions. Thane: Badass looking assassin to dying father trying to find his son. Jacob: Standard soldier to a boy raised with no father and someone who becomes your teammate, not Cerberus's hired gun. Grunt: Super-krogan to a newborn with no place to call his home. Jack: Crazy murderer to abused child from birth. Kasumi: Thief to someone who saw her lover die. Legion: A Geth sent to copy Shepard, to a being that helped fight it's own kind because they were Reaper controlled. Miranda: Hot b**** in charge to a person trying to live up to Daddy's demands of perfection and ended up saving her sister, who she never knew. Samara: Space police to tortured mother. Zaeed: Mercenary to...angry mercenary. Ok, not much for him. But I was mad when Miranda, Thane, Jack, and Kasumi couldn't be squadmates in 3. The rest of the characters...it made sense. It really hurt that I was powerless to prevent it. And that's why ME3's ending sucks. No closure. Still haven't seen extended, because I'm waiting for Leviathan and need to get my Galactic Readiness back up.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 04:46 PM) +1 for proper use. QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 04:49 PM) Most, if not all memes are hyperbolically broad generalizations. So what. I meant I hate when they aren't used correctly. Condescending Wonka is would more properly "Oh, you boycott Chick-Fil-A for not supporting gays? Tell me more about how they're directly harming gay people."

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 12:33 PM) 4967. Just 33 newbies to go. DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUN.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 01:37 PM) FBI says the temple gunman took his own life, was not killed by police officer's shots. He hated white people.

QUOTE (southsidepride15 @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 04:34 PM) Must be from carrying the team the last like 3 months. LOL Seriously though, he has been as good if not better (all-around) than anyone in all of baseball. That would be Trout.

I will say that if anyone can point me to something that tells me what gas station uses what oil, I'll stick to non-OPEC supplied oil.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 04:23 PM) http://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/pet_move_impcu..._im0_mbbl_m.htm Around 40K of the 340K oil imports comes from Saudi Arabia. Around 90K comes from Canada. So maybe we should boycott oil from there for having universal health care and gay marriage? So... 1) That meme was used terribly wrong. Whoever made it should be shot for being so incorrect in their usage of the meme. 2) We have no way of discerning our oil provider at a gas pump. And more comes from non-OPEC countries. 3) I'm sure most would agree that cars are more of a necessity than Chick-Fil-A 4) As there are no ways of discerning what country gave the oil, we can't readily acquire alternatives (like KFC, Subway, etc.). With Chick-Fil-A, we can.

Confidence in Gordo is growing. That'll only help him. Rios needs an off day. Paulie needs to be lemony-fresh down the stretch.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 09:10 PM) I don't get this thread. To be bitter.
