  1. The word in the papers today was that there were only 3 guys left in camp without spots, which goes along with this except those 3 were Widger(Or Davis due to recent events), Thomas and Diaz.
  2. I'm still dissapointed Burke will not receive his chance.
  3. Isn't Burke Buehrle's personal catcher anyway? If I am in fact correct, Jugs is right in that we don't need a catcher for defensive purposes, since AJ should for the most part be starting 4 out of 5 days.
  4. I've heard very good things about the guy. One time there was a bomb threat at the Metrodome and he was forced to tell the crowd to stay calm and stay in your seats. A couple minutes later he comes back on and annouces "Theres going to be an EXXXPLOOOSION!!!!"
  5. Is that one chick Christina Aguilara? I've been meaning to figure this one out...
  6. QUOTE(3E8 @ Mar 28, 2005 -> 05:59 PM) Outsold? I guess if you consider that the DS had a 5 month head-start. 1 million PSP's were sold on release day, 18 million in homes by Xmas '05, 50 million by Xmas '06. And it's online out of the box. Nintendo unfortunately still isn't totally convinced gamers want online capabilities. I was talking more world wide numbers. It's hard to tell overall sales at this point(because of which some stores are unable to report their numbers) but I do know that the DS just shattered the 1st week sales for 1 console over in Europe, outsold the PSP for their 1st week sales in Japan and it is too early to tell here in America. Lets face it though, sales don't equal a quality system so I won't fight that. I do however say that I don't think entering the handheld market will be good for Sony. For one, the PSP is seeing a gigantic loss for every unit sold. For two, the UMD is set-up as a failure due to much higher running costs than a normal disk and disturbing possible security breaches. Sony is putting its priorities to the UMD market and it really just doesn't look good. For three, just look at the handheld market in the past. About a 10-1 failure/success ratio. Virtually all of which are Nintendos.
  7. I can't stop laughing at the Dakotas.
  8. Nintendo is to release a much-more powerful handheld in the next 6 months. It will finally be the much-anticipated follow-up to the GameBoy and will be as powerful as a GameCube. And could have backwards-compatibility with it, although that last part may just be nothing more than speculation. Being Nintendo and it being a Gameboy, it will likely be a friendly-buyer price and nothing too over the top. The DS wil likely drop down to 100$ at release and the 2 will run side by side. I'm defiantly waiting for this rather than buying a PSP. I've tried it and been very unpleased with it. Heavy, Very Short-battery life, and Not-so-good control set-up up to go along with that its being outsold by the DS(which is going on-line) and 50$ games says to stay away.
  9. This thing is a piece of crap...
  10. Deron Williams completly took us out of the game but also put us back in it. Luther is my vote.
  11. Overall, Thats a good fake site though.
  12. QUOTE(shagar69 @ Mar 26, 2005 -> 05:32 AM) i honestly thought that it was the right moment. I know that at the end of games, refs should stay out of it, but they had to make that call, no matter how much it affected the flow of the game. It was an obvious travel. But what a great fight put up by Nova. But i dont see the Badgers stoppin UNC, so theyll make it to the final four Obvious? Replay still only shows 2 steps. All 6 CBS/ ESPN commentators agree.
  13. What a terrible travel call at the end. Game given to UNc at that moment.
  14. Has anyone even read the Ray Druham/Iguchi comment in there yet? He has completly lost his mind. Since Durham last had his healthy season when he was 30, this must mean Iguchi is injury prone? Is that what I am getting from this? Why are the 2 even comparable? :headshake
  15. Jesus Christ, theses refs are brutal. And these blatently 1 sided announcers couldn't get more annoying either.
  16. QUOTE(backman @ Mar 19, 2005 -> 06:26 AM) kansas sucks! uconn has a easy trip to reach the elite-8! making it for sure! but then again nuttins for sure! I have Wisky beating them in my bracket.
  17. Verizon here. I had Nextel before and it was terrible. No service anwhere. With Verizon though, you virtually get service anywhere as the "Can you hear me now" guy promises.
  18. Whens the last time a career .330+ hitter was so worried about making the team.
  19. We got GBN tommorrow. Again, very nervous. But with receny wins over St. Joe's, Simeon and Proviso East, I am confident all the same. It worked last time so: Brother Rice over Glenbrook North. Book It.
