  1. Source Code is a quality scifi thriller. 4/5
  2. Wow really?...some people have no patience. There is still 98% of the season left. The sox will more than likely have a stretch or two worse than these last "2 GAMES"
  3. I'm ok with him being in a spot in the order for him to drive Dunn, Konerko and Rios in when they get on. I think this lineup is more dangerous with Quentin right where he is at.
  4. ok...so Bobby Farrelly and his bro are planning on revisiting a sequel to Dumb and Dumber with the original actors. http://www.darkhorizons.com/news/19669/ano...er-film-coming/
  5. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 08:08 AM) Reality TV is a great one. I can't stand any of the stuff that gets talked about on a regular basis. The only good Reality TV ever was COPS.
  6. Sucks that he's only racing in about 17 races this year...would like to see the kid for a Whole year.
  7. His stand up I went to in November was the most i laughed in a single night.
  8. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 3, 2011 -> 10:17 AM) I missed the first segment but everything I saw was absolutely hilarious. For the web redemption they had that girl from a while ago(guess it was 8 yrs ago) who f***ed up the National Anthem at a Blazers game and Mo Cheeks helped her finish it, well she's pretty damn good looking now a days. She has a very good voice as well. Didn't know God hats flags though...
  9. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 30, 2010 -> 10:46 AM) So 100 MLB players sampled means nothing to you but 1 player who doesn't read the news is something to rely on? so it's 30% of 100 players? That would be 30 RANDOM players against.....out of 1280 players (if you count 40 man roster) I'd care more about a list of managers that players want to play for and see where he is on that list.
  10. What do you think about Gary's role as the commisioner in Batman Begins/ The Dark Knight?
  11. McDonalds commercial with the Mocha caramel hand tap s***....makes me puke. I haven't ate at a Mcdonalds in 2 years...but that commercial isn't why
  12. QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 04:47 PM) Ok, just picked up Uncharted 2 for $36 and free shipping on ebay. On a roll today. dunno if you've heard, but the director of the movie supposedly wants Mark Wahlberg to be Nathan Drake.....and somehow wants to write parts for DeNiro and Pesci as a father/uncle combo. sounds like a joke but it isn't.
  13. QUOTE (onedude @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 05:47 PM) PS3 is looking like it's going to go out on me any day now. It shuts off automatically at random times....then I get the blinking red light when it is off. Not looking good. Does anyone know if there is a chance I can back-up my saves to a hard drive? Will there be enough time before it cuts out? wound up popping it open and reflowing the mother board in the oven. Miraculously that worked. I was able to back up everything. I found out reflowing it is just a temp fix, it will happen again. so i'm biding my time saving some money up and i'm going to buy a new ps3. Would it be possible to stop it from happening again by just getting an intercooler for the ps3....it's the 60 gb, so i'd probably have to find one online somewhere right?

  15. Could it be? Hard R action movie with Dewayne Johnson?
  16. I'll be 26 on October 10, 2010.....10/10/10
  17. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 12, 2010 -> 02:50 PM) Love that movie. That extended shot during the battle at the end was insane. I wonder how many takes they needed to get that shot off. I heard somewhere that a lot of the extended shots were actually multiple shots seamlessly put together through editing. Dunno how they did it, but it worked. Awesome movie.

  19. QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 22, 2010 -> 03:06 PM) FIP didn't lie about Ubaldo (when he was still dealing, his FIP was around 2.9), his ERA continues to rise. changing your sig anytime soon LOL
  20. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 22, 2010 -> 03:10 PM) 1) Putz is not a luxury on this team, he's a necessity. You don't trade him to "get value" for him, because his value is highest to the White Sox. And yes, trading a middle reliever when the only two sure-things in the pen are the reliever in question and one other is absolutely ridiculous. The only two pitchers that I see as being able to consistently get guys out are Putz and Thornton. Santos has stuff, but has gotten knocked around a bit over the past month or so. Pena is a mediocre middle reliever and nothing more. Linebrink can't be trusted in any game the Sox are within 4 runs of the opposition. Threets is journeyman fodder. Jenks has proven to be positively mediocre this entire year. Trading Putz, at this point in time, is absolutely absurd to even consider. 2) Alonso is going to cost significantly less than Dunn or Fielder because he is significantly worse than Dunn or Fielder. You can't use a 10 game sample and declare that a guy has figured it out. Otherwise, Tyler Flowers would be the starting catcher for the Sox. It's entirely possible he got lucky on the balls he put into play during that time period. Further, that line alone tells me I don't want him simply because he's hitting for singles and doubles while drawing the occasional walk (what is that, maybe 4 walks in 10 games?), because an Iso of .079 is Erstadian in stature. 3) The Sox could also afford to go Viciedo-Beckham-Ramirez-Morel. Or Teahen-Beckham-Ramirez-Viciedo. Or they could quite conceivably spend a little bit of money on their infield because they aren't the Florida Marlins. Just because they don't have a lot of money to work with next year doesn't mean they have absolutely none at all. 4) For whatever reason, you assume that I am willing to deal Hudson, Viciedo, and Beckham for Dunn. This is simply not the case. Further, you assume that, if the Sox did, for whatever reason, deal Hudson, Viciedo, and Beckham for Dunn, that they wouldn't go out and try to find replacements from outside the organization, when during Williams' tenure, that's been the main source of finding players. Finally, if Washington is going to deal Dunn, it really should only take one of Viciedo or Hudson (because Beckham is obviously not available) plus other players within the minors, and it may be entirely possible that Williams is able to make a deal otherwise. 5) I would say Fielder is completely out of the picture. The Brewers want pitching badly, and they apparently view Hudson as a #3 or #4. That, to me, suggests that any deal between the two teams is virtually impossible. 6) I don't necessarily believe that Alonso is an upgrade over Kotsay. His numbers in the minors this year, according to minor league splits, translate to a .233/.287/.343/.630 line in the majors. His July would be nice, but then again, Kotsay's had nice splits too. Beyond ANY of this, this is only assuming the Sox deal for Dunn or Fielder. They could easily acquire Luke Scott, Adam LaRoche, Jose Bautista, or Jayson Werth too, and they could simply stand pat and let Teahen DH for a while too. Williams won't make a move unless it meets his price. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 22, 2010 -> 03:45 PM)

  24. QUOTE (ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 20, 2010 -> 02:41 PM) You can interpret the movie a bunch of different ways. A couple people i've talked to paid attention to I've visited a few sites and forums and some people have come out with the same conclusion.
