  1. QUOTE(soxmalone21 @ Jan 17, 2005 -> 09:20 PM) I'm ready to go get some Bulls tickets. I don't want to wait around because if I do, and this team makes the playoffs this year the tickets will be a hot commodity again. this is a great basketball town...i predict we will be top five at least...in attendance
  2. QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jan 17, 2005 -> 07:54 PM) LOL, I'm looking for some new stuff. The last few things I really enmjoyed are Snow Patrol, Secret Machines and Interpol. Any suggestions? secret machines are so bad live...yuck.. well, i gotta say Sugar Ros, the faint, the killers, and this doesn't really fit in but the pixies should always be added.
  3. QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ Jan 17, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) Gordon is not your typical nba rookie. He spent 3 years at a top flight basketball program in Uconn. He's been in a lot of pressure situations before. The guy us fearless!! with the way okafur and gordon are playing i think a lot of nba scouts are gonna look at uconn for future players.
  4. this game was awesome. WHen sweetney was fouled i thought the game might be over... but whats amazing is that rookies are supposed to lose games, not win them, and it was the rookies we turned to to get us out of that hole and they delivered. Noc and Gordon were so amazing that last 1:30...absolutely incredible.
  5. QUOTE(CubKilla @ Jan 17, 2005 -> 05:29 PM) This point is so laughable it borders on ludicrous. Even if Bush and Co. knew every conceivable point to Bin Laden's 09/11 plans before it happened and did arrest those to be involved based on intelligence, you, FlaSoxx, LCR, and a few other like KWF would have jumped all over the Bush Administration for being racist..... for profiling..... for violating the civil rights of the 19 or so "would-be terrorists" based simply on conjecture because..... after all..... they hadn't committed a crime..... yada, yada, yada. Obviously, Bush will never do anything right in your closed-off, unfledgingly partisan'd mind, and the few of you here that constantly harp on him come off as nothing but a bunch of goddamn crybabies. Waa, waa, WAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! I'm so sure that if Kerry would have been elected that the change in US government would have been so extreme it would have bordered on monumental. At least that's what you and FlaSoxx would have posted for everyone everyday. At least LCR would post Kerry vitriol. If nothing else, he's consistent in his hate of everything related to the way the US government works. ??? how do you know. Just because you create your own scenario in your head and then reason it to yourself as fact. I guarantee if that would have happened it would have been covered as major terrorist attack averted. Well, at least in the real world. In the delusional world of the hard right, the media would have covered it too sympathetically towards the terrorists.
  6. coheed and cambria...think about the two worst ways to sing a song...they incorporate both into their band.
  7. QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Jan 17, 2005 -> 02:48 AM) A Silver Mt. Zion Sigur Ros Maybe gy!be, who knows i didn't know sugar ros was coming out with a new album..something to look forward to... i like trail of dead...well, i liked their old album, they have some great intros and lead ins...
  8. thats true to... its a wonder if he's been sheltered from any responsibility his whole life, and thats why its no different in his presidency...any failure has been saved by priviledge, who is this man to tell people to work for their living when he has been handed a everything and has failed at most of it.

    Garden State

    i just rented it, and i loved it. I don't have a lot of money so i can't go to the movies too often, but i rented it as soon as it came out because my mom has that free movie pass thing, and i loved it. I just felt good after seeing it. There were so many hilarious parts, like when the knight walks past him when he first wakes up...and natalie portman was great in that role. Zach Braph is truly talented and the soundtrack was great. I love the shins and was so excited when i saw them featured.
  10. right now i'm most looking forward to the mars volta ...trail of dead bright eyes kinda and those are the only ones i know have a cd coming out, but i'm not really sure of who else... i know a lot of people are excited over built to spills cd coming out, i'm not a fan at all but if you are just thought i'd throw it out there.
  11. the reason bush won was because carl rove, he is a genius, he is probably gonna go down as the best ever at what he does. For a 6 month period everything bad about bush was really blurred over, and everything about it being a tough job and how things were going well and this liberal media and how bush is TOUGH on terror...i got lost in it ... but then as soon as the elections ended, rove didn't have to work and a lot of people started to re-realize why there was so much criticism of bush. If he wants the american people to be accountable, he should look at himself first.
  12. it seems we weren't so excited about our team like two weeks ago, and then optimism reallyheated up around soxfest... i like the situtationwe are in and i like that patriots approach, get a whole bunch of solid players at a good price instead of one or two at a monster price...i think we could be good...i'm glad we have AJ...
  13. QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 15, 2005 -> 09:54 PM) Fisk definitely will be remembered more for his years in Boston than he will here. when did mays not have a giants uniform on?
  14. i love how whenever nocioni is on a fast break with three open bulls around him he goes straight for the hoop ... where the one defender is... actually i hate it
  15. QUOTE(The Bones @ Jan 2, 2005 -> 08:22 AM) 1.)Beastie Boys-To The 5 Boroughs 2.)Green Day-American Idiot 3.)The Hives-Tyrannasaurus Hives 4.)Modest Mouse-Good News For People Who Love Bad News and since I believe those are the only cds that I bought that came out this year... The Clash-London Calling 25th Anniversary I'm gonna have to check out that David Cross cd. My brother got me Mr. Show (season 4) for Christmas and it's hilarious. I've also been wanting to pick up Kanye's album for awhile now. i didn't like medulia as much, and i've heard a leak for the mars volta and it is so awesome...and does anyone know when the next ...trail of dead cd comes out.
  16. QUOTE (Cali @ Jan 2, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) <!--QuoteBegin-Cerbaho-WG+Jan 1, 2005 -> 06:42 PM--> QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jan 1, 2005 -> 06:42 PM) <!--QuoteEBegin--> And we have someone who's completely ignorant outside of one genre. Kessler doesn't have to scream to get the vocals across, and my main gripe with Turn On The Bright Lights was that, outside songs like PDA and Leif Erikson, he was too monotone. He certainly improved in this aspect on Antics, and I find it a good, not even close to spectacular album. I find it funny that again you're too ignorant to realize who Interpol's main musical influences are (see Joy Division) and so what if those bands were predominately British? Interpol isn't carbon copying anyone, and to say they're "trying" to be British is completely absurd. And that genre you can't put a name on, it's called Indie Rock. That said, I believe Anal c*** has a song that sums up The Dillinger Escape Plan fairly well. "You think you're so f***ing original Gay bars used to be original too" Seth never fails to humor me. Monotone is a great word to describe them.... Why is it that the screaming thing always comes up when Metal is compared to other genres of music? It takes just as much effort to be on tour everynight screaming as it does to sing Opera, or sing in general on a daily basis. Why would I ever try to realize the musical influences of a band I could care less about? I was just lumping them into the super trendy genre that's going on right now if you turn on a rock radio station. Any band with "The", Modest Mouse, Interpol, Franz Ferdis***, whoever, They're all trendy right now. I've heard them all so many times, since that is the way of the radio station, and they all sound the same to me. All boring. Calling every band you don't like gay, yeah that's some original s***. What is the guy 12? Just looking at some of the fantastic lyrics and song titles, it seems like Interpol and bands of that ilk would be ripe for the picking by this guy. i suggest you actually listen to modest mouse and franz ferdinand. I don't consider good news by any means to be modest mouses best work...but it was their most eclectic and a strikingly original record. I still like M&A as my favorite with lonesome crowded west a close second.
  17. QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jan 2, 2005 -> 12:26 AM) Funny considering Absolution was released in 2003, and it's quite difficult to be better than a band which you're obviously basing everything off of. Bellamy has one of the whiniest voices I've ever heard, and anything Muse puts out sounds like The Bends to the nth degree. As for my list, it reads: 1) Magyar Posse - Kings of Time 2) Fly Pan Am - N'ecoutez Pas 3) Mono - Walking cloud and deep red sky, Flag fluttered and sun shined 4) Tortoise - It's All Around You 5) Interpol - Antics BLESS YOU FOR SAYING WHAT I WAS THINKING...what radiohead faced post ok computer was a crossroads of keep doing what they were doing and face the dilution of their music in the record label or push themselves to create a new sound and style of songwriting. What started in ok computer came to fruition in kid a...and despite kid a's obvious tab as a studio only album, i'd take kid a live songs over ok computer ones anydays. The best songs on ok computer (exit music, the tourist, sub-homesick alien) just didn't translate well live. best of 05: Modest MOuse-good news for people who love bad news (M&A still my fav though) Franz Ferdinand Wilco-A ghost is born Ben Harper and the Blind Boys from Alabama Morissey- You are the quarry

    IPass

    well, this totally screws me over, i'm not on the tollway every day, however, on my trips to my dads house and to dekalb, which to dekalb will now cost 2.20 to go there and back. I can't afford to put down a 40 dollar down payment even if it does just go back to the tolls. It screws me personally.

    Trump fired?

    compared to virgin megacorps ceo, trump really isn't all that flexible in his business options, most things besides real estate have been a failure, barring of course his tv show.
