AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!
D2 is a pimp. Also, how about trying to sign B-Mac for the 2013 rotation? (I still think the rotation will be Sale-Peavy-Liriano-RH-Q/Danks)

What baseball team do you hate the most?
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 05:56 PM) Grow up in an area where a bunch of your friends are cheering for the Cubs, getting out of school to go to Cubs games, your family/grandparents have a Cubs fan in there, and you somehow wind up a Sox fan by age 9...you'll figure out the Cubs hatred really really quick. THIS. It's why I dislike U of I so thoroughly as well. When the Cubs were in the NLCS and U of I in the Final Four, I was "expected" to root for them because I lived in the area. God forbid I root for my Sox and NIU teams as well. Outside of my nuclear family, everyone else is Cubs fans so it was never ending. Then Bartman happened. Then Sean May and Raymond Felton. It was beautiful. And finally, '05. THE GLORY THAT WAS '05. We got to rub it in, even though some Cubs fans switched allegiances over night and were now "Sox" fans. It's also why Waldo the White Sox Wolf should have been a full blown mascot. Being a Sox fan was like being a lone wolf in a sea of baby bears.

2012-2013 NBA thread
Also, I was FINALLY beginning to like Kobe. I like Nash and Pau. I was gonna be happy for Nash to get a ring. Now? I won't hope an injury on Dwight, but it would be the greatest karmic justice ever. He's treated so many people like s*** because of his terrible decision, and he still wins in the end.

This deal makes no sense for Orlando. At least New Orleans got Gordon and Rivers.

What baseball team do you hate the most?
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.

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.

Curiosity - Mars Science Laboratory
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"

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.

Curiosity - Mars Science Laboratory
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.

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.

Curiosity - Mars Science Laboratory
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)

Curiosity - Mars Science Laboratory
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.
