DBAHO

Everyone seemed to loved Portishead this year, me I just wasn't a huge fan; In no particular order; Oasis - Dig Out Your Soul (good return to form for them) MGMT - Oracular Spectacular Bloc Party - Intimacy Pryda - Evouh The Hold Steady - Stay Positive

McDaniels will get the head coaching job in Cleveland if Pioli goes over there.

It seems everyone likes Zooey. She's the "it" girl.

Decent enough win for Rutgers yesterday. They're losing Teel and probably Kenny Britt though.

Any thoughts on the pitcher Cubano?

Right, so I shouldn't move to a cold weather climate place anytime soon then?

QUOTE (G&T @ Dec 29, 2008 -> 04:17 PM) I just had my first Fatburger. Seems like good hangover food. They just built one in Jersey City also. The thing is, do I bother trying one of them, or stick to my usual Burger Fix at Five Guys, Shake Shack and the Burgers from the Parker Meridian.

Hmmm;

The Bears definitely need to spend a 1st day pick on a QB, so they can develop one for a couple of years. Orton's a decent enough stop-gap for the moment. They'll probably need another RB to pair with Forte, so he doesn't wear down next season.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Dec 29, 2008 -> 10:19 AM) You better marry one of them in the next 5 months... Yeah I know. I told em I need to find a nice midwest girl now.

So I went out on Saturday Night with an Aussie Friend, and basically somehow he's going to a Debutante Ball today with a girl from St. Louis (don't ask me how). And for some reason, she brought 3 of her girlfriends across, and well they were a lot better looking than most of girls I have seen around in New York. So my question is, are all of the women in St. Louis this good looking (they were college seniors and all Cardinals' fans BTW).

We deserve all the crap we're gonna get over the next few weeks. The O-Line was ABYSMAL over the past few weeks, mainly the left side of it. Flozell Adams should be replaced if he's not healthy, and don't get me started on Cory Procter at LG. We need Kyle Kosier back at LG. On defense, Roy Williams the safety needs to be released, and we need to draft a cover safety early, because it's been painful watching the likes of Williams and Keith Davis cover the middle and tight ends. Oh and Mangini and Marinelli have both been fired.

Downright embarrassed to be a Cowboys fan right now after that 1st half.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Dec 26, 2008 -> 08:17 PM) I think the difference between those teams is that they have guys that can finish out games. Orlando really has no one that you know, each time out can impose their will for key baskets. They don't have a Pierce, a Kobe, a LeBron who you want to give the ball to each time out to make something happen. LeBron at least will get you a good look, though he won't take it himself unless it's a wide open layup. That's why, to me at least, Boston is the class of the East and everyone else is a pretender. LeBron's team is not as good as they are playing right now and I have a feeling they will be exposed once again. The teams that matter IMO are the Celtics, Lakers, Rockets(if healthy) and the Magic if Dwight develops even further. Actually I'd disagree with that. Hedo Turkoglu was one of the best clutch players in the league last season, and he's usually the guy down the stretch who we look for, because Dwight's not good enough at the line. I think we match up well with the Cavs and Celts at the PG (Nelson is a wash with Rondo and Williams IMO), and have the edge in the frontcourt.

A jumper and a t-shirt sent over from home, and my car registration paid for another year.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 25, 2008 -> 01:33 PM) Magic lead 61-31 at halftime in Orlando against the Hornets. DBAHO is having a good time watching this somewhere in Jersey. Yep made for some good watching indeed. Dwight's 2 putback dunks in the 2nd quarter were just silly. Hopefully we're started to be taken a little bit more seriously at contenders now.

I can't see Dunleavy doing Thabo and Gooden for Kaman either. For Brad Miller maybe, but Kaman has more value than that. Parker's a good candidate to target, because he's on the outs, and he's a quality defensive SG. Problem is, the Bulls already have too many SG's as it is. Lee if he's dealt, is probably going to go to Denver for Linus Kleiza and a 1st. I'd like for the Magic to target either Wilcox or Joe Smith from the Thunder for a 2nd rounder. Would deepend our bench, and give us another big, which we SORELY need.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 24, 2008 -> 12:36 AM) The defense on this team as a whole is just a joke. Usually, the guards are hidden to a degree by the fact that the Bulls get killed inside (Drew Gooden might be the worst interior defender in the NBA when he's not injured), but tonight Rodney Stuckey got his chance and showed that the backcourt of this team really can't guard either. VDN, if nothing else, is a hire I'm already starting to question because he clearly does not hold his team accountable in regards to playing defense, and that is not good. This team doesn't have enough firepower to win 110-105 on a regular basis. Right now I think the VDN hire has also been a bit of a disaster, and he'll really need to improve over the next season and a half. I think there were better candidates out there for sure. The Bulls need to pull the trigger on a Gooden and Sefolosha for Brad Miller ASAP.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 24, 2008 -> 10:55 AM) Well, you COULD surf off a beach on LI or the Jersey Shore. But you'd better wear your dry suit. Unfortunately I didn't exactly have room to pack that in my bag. At least the weather's actually not going to be too bad over here tomorrow. Monday was definitely the coldest since I've been here in the States.

QUOTE (greasywheels121 @ Dec 24, 2008 -> 09:23 AM) I will never understand how anyone likes winter. ^^^. I am really missing not going to be able to go surfing on a beach on Christmas Morning.

Staying in Newport and New York for the day. Am working XMAS Eve and Boxing Day which is a bit of a bummer.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 23, 2008 -> 12:48 PM) He's supposed to decide today. Indications are its Boston. Yeah I saw that. Makes the most sense for him. The Yanks may end up in 3rd place in the AL East again which would be absolutely hilarious after the contracts they gave Sabathia and Burnett. My guess is Hank Steinbrenner is desperate to sign Manny to counter the Tex signing.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Dec 22, 2008 -> 06:19 PM) Sure, I'm sure the fact that someone put it in the fridge means they aren't saving it for later. It was gone when I went back at 4:45 yesterday. Bastards.

Happy Birthday Willie!!!

Couldn't happen to a better person.
