QUOTE(Damen @ Apr 28, 2006 -> 09:18 PM) You mean the constant statements like... "This is the best 5 man rotation I've ever seen" "This is the best 3-4-5 lineup I've ever seen" "Crede's playin the best defense I've ever seen" "Contreras has the most movement I've ever seen" And the best, after KC beat the Sox to win the Series in April, Hawk said this in reference to the jugernaut reigning in KC. "Don't be fooled, this team is good." Between the ridiculous Sox hyperbole, and his calls of "stretch" for every flyball within 10 feet of the warning track, Hawk's gotten very difficult to listen to. Unfortunately, DJ's play by play "uh oooh" is no better, and the oasis of Rooney/Farmer is no more. So I'm forced to watch the Sox, waiting for ESPN to pick up a few games, so Chris Berman can provide his neutral, professional, call. post was all like

Short answer = kill the person you want gone or is it green?

QUOTE(Brian @ Apr 28, 2006 -> 07:39 PM) Went and caught "United 93" this afternoon. Very well made. The majority of the film is 9/11 from the view point of air traffic control which I thought was interesting. The first hour is them edited with United 93 boarding, waiting on the runway, etc. The film only contains events that we know happened on the plane based on phone calls and such. For the first hour, I had an uneasy feeling in my stomach. Just the suspense building up from what inevitably was going to happen. I agree with all the critics in that it is well done, does not exploit anything, and is a movie, if you can handle it, should be seen. thanks, at first i thought it would be a stupid propoganda piece making money off of the emotions of the American public...but then i saw Greengrass was directing it and all worries were arrested. Bloody sunday was magnificent! Great director/writer

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 28, 2006 -> 07:37 PM) You all are making a mountain out a molehill. I could really give less than a damn if Gage was broadcasting a game if we're doing well... If we are talking about broadcasters i don't understand why my post is making a mountain out of a molehill...if we are just talking about sox baseball, i could see where this would be nitpicking. But we are talking about the broadcasters...so no its not. I mean weren't we all complaining about Berman last year during the redsox games? the soxtalk don't complain police back in full force and addy, i'm not holding it against singleton, i'm holding it against the score for not finding an adequate replacement....

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Apr 28, 2006 -> 07:25 PM) Hawk has to be the most pompous, self-righteous, egotistical announcer in sports. And another thing, I'm noticing a lot of, "I used to hate DJ, but, now..." comments, yet, there are still people out there calling Farmer and Singleton the worst radio tandum in history. Last I checked, that was Darrin's first job in broadcasting as well. Correct me if I'm wrong, Soxtalk, I know you will. addy, considering we are listening to a season that really likely could be one of the best seasons in our tenure as sox fans...i think we are complaining because we are gonna have terrible radio calls for important plays. I mean, Do you realize how much fun it was to post the rooney calls last year? His voice is attached to those memories...i mean imagine... "Ball hit middle uhmm. uhh uribe...he throws it to konerko...and um uhhh out ...and uhhh the sox oh uh champ world ...oh uhhh ohh no..oohh"

i think it is the comedic factor...listening to DJ used to make me angry, now i laugh at him for a bunch of stuff...he's a nice guy thou i'm rooting for him

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Apr 27, 2006 -> 08:09 PM) Because you don't need to know everything? What good is it to know that we have detention centers for terrorists? What would it change? If we get information from these people, it's worth it, and it SHOULD be COVERT. we have a right to know how our governor is treating prisoners especially in times like these where no charges are brought up...but whose to say in the future the people being put in these camps won't just be "known terrorists"... i'd rather know. History isn't on the side of noble gov'ts prevailing without the watch of its people.

why people want their gov't to be so secretive is beyond me...

QUOTE(sti3 @ Apr 27, 2006 -> 04:12 PM) If you're in Chicago and old enough Smart Bar has a ton of minimal events. Lots of Kompakt artists rolling through. One CD you can probably get used for $5 which I think is an underrated gem is Miss Kittin's Radio Caroline mix. i'm in Columbia MO right now, suprising lack of electronic haha... i'll be in chicago mid may...question: how old is old enough? Is this a 21 place like the empty bottle (f***ing nazis) or will 18 get you in with a stamp

QUOTE(sti3 @ Apr 27, 2006 -> 02:03 AM) You insult me. I meant the specific sounds were similar to e.g. "Run Into Flowers", specifically the c c c c c c c a a a a a a b b b b type of synth intros, and then the way halfway into the track it kinda goes "balls out" with some crashing drums. I know enough IDM to be a little more specific with my comparisons. I just liked NF's singles better than the album. FWIW I've been following Border Community since their first release and have a pic of James Holden as my pic on last.fm. Speaking of which I'm waiting until I have a bit of cash to put in an order with React Music--his latest double mix cd and Miss Kittin's. I say this cause it was the 3rd M83 comparison i've heard, but i guess i could see it for Run into flowers, but he doesn't have those trudging synths like gonzales uses. My friend interns at warp which is pretty cool, i got advances of broadcast and campfire headphase last year. and secondly...haven't heard any news about this...I'm trying to get some of the albums from Berlins minimal techno...but i'm having trouble becaue my local indie rec store is having trouble ordering them and oink doesn't have that many of them... but cool, i'm still feeling around through electronic stuff but its cool to know someone with more knowledge...keep me informed on good stuff.

QUOTE(sti3 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 06:46 PM) I did cop it, yes. I was a bit disappointed to be honest. Thought the non-dance tracks (most of them) were a bit formulaic, and not necessarily an original formula--sounded a bit like M83 to me. I'm sure the remix joint is good though. kinda sucks that any lighter upbeat sounding electronic is gonna be compared to M83 while any darker, grainier electronic is gonna be compared to Boards of Canada but i see what you are saying. I think he did a damn good job, i mean isn't this his debut? Plus i think that record label is an up and comer...

yeah rowand sucks. do i really need it?
