QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 4, 2008 -> 09:29 AM) What about troupe sketch comedy (SNL, MAD TV, Fridays, Kids in the Hall) and/or anthology comedy (Monty Python, Benny Hill, Dave Allen, etc.)?? As far as cultural significance SNL has to be way up there, even if it sucked ass for extended periods during its long history. Since the list is funniest and not greatest comedies, I'm putting shows that made me laugh. Also, it isn't just sitcoms, so I'm putting in shows like Conan, MST3K, and probably Monty Python.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 09:24 PM) This is going to be nearly impossible, since I never watched shows like Cheers or MASH due to my age, yet know they should be included in this sort of list. I just have no idea where to put them. Funny thing is I'm only 25 and I grew up on those shows. My mom would watch the reruns on Fox, I believe, at night before bed when I was very little, and I would watch with her. I called it "the helicopter show" when I was 3 or 4 because of the opening credits. Those two will probably be in my top 5.

QUOTE (DBAH0 @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 03:30 PM) Hughes is a me first overrated injury prone SG with a horrible shooting %. Can't see why if the Bulls had a chance to deal him and get a superstar in return, why they wouldn't do it. So are you saying Hughes for Wade straight up?? If so, then what you're saying makes sense. If you're saying Hughes AND THE NUMBER ONE OVERALL PICK IN THE NBA DRAFT for Wade, then no, it doesn't make sense. Listen, if you could guarantee that it is the pre-injury superstar Wade the Bulls are getting, than by all means, you take the sure-bet over the gamble that is the number one draft pick. But you CANNOT know for sure what Wade you're getting, so why take TWO gambles, on Wade's health AND Rose blowing up into a younger, better superstar for another team?? Why potentially set the heat up for dominance for the next 10 years or so in your own conference when you can possibly do it for your own team?? It just doesn't make sense...

QUOTE (DBAH0 @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 02:07 PM) Wade for Hughes and the 1st. Would anyone do that (would be fairly close cap wise)? Yes. Anyone affiliated with the heat would. Noone else in their right mind would.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jun 2, 2008 -> 03:31 PM) What does firing Walker accomplish? The guys struggling are vets who are likely most resistant to change. What's he going to do to get PK or JT going? Seriously? It sends a message, obviously. At this point something needs to be done to wake them the hell up. What does not doing anything accomplish??

QUOTE (fathom @ May 26, 2008 -> 11:16 PM) Some more local tidbits I've heard from TOC....Cully Payne, who's a DePaul verbal, made Jereme Richmond look like a saint on the court in comparison. The term "asshole" was used to describe him. He's not a DePaul verbal anymore. Great call by both parties. He's not really a BE-caliber player...

QUOTE (knightni @ May 31, 2008 -> 09:15 PM) Yep. Trade Gooden and Noc/Gordon for a point guard and draft Beasley. Because Derrick Cole...I mean Beasley hit a few uncontested 3s?? There's not a (huge) doubt in my mind that he can immediately be a 20-10 guy and prolific scorer, but I'm still enamored with what Rose could become...

I thought There Will Be Blood was wayy better than No Country For Old Men.

NOT a surprising pax move at all...

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ May 27, 2008 -> 06:16 PM) I still cannot believe this was the best we could do for Garland.

QUOTE (Texsox @ May 27, 2008 -> 01:25 PM) So you could list some micro brew that no one has ever heard of before? Yeah, that's what I was thinking. After the funny movies list, I was thinking maybe top 10 horror movies, but then I figured kid gleason would hate our lists and come up with a bunch of obscure movies... Sitcoms sounds good. I'm thinking 1. MASH for me...

Scottie Pippen is probably my favorite athlete of all time...

I still cannot believe this was the best we could do for Garland.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2008 -> 11:38 AM) I've got an idea. Let's delete this thread, thusly giving no recognition whatsoever to this horrible article. I agree. Or at least a title change.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 22, 2008 -> 12:00 PM) I can see the point there, but Aguirre was a SG, that's not quite the same thing as a 6'9" 240 lb combo forward that might be able to put up 25 and 10. Mark Aguirre was a 6'6" 230 lb forward...

QUOTE (kapkomet @ May 22, 2008 -> 11:03 AM) Damn, dude, I hope you get better. That sounds painful. Thank you. I'm done with all the hard stuff. The doctor just said to take it easy for the next year or so. Since I'm no paid athlete, I'm gonna take it real easy. No reason to risk re-rupture for me.

Yeah, that might be too rich for my blood. Discounted tickets does sound better. And I'd probably be in for tailgating, but my Elton Brand injury is keeping out of commission for sports for a while so no softball for me.

As much as I absolutely luv my Blue Demons, I feel that the 1981 Draft is the closest similar situation to this year. Now, Aguirre was an absolute beast scoring over 20 ppg throughout his 13-year career with a 29.5 ppg season too, but who would you rather have? (Don't say tom chambers)

So...what number will Pooh wear? 25? Maybe 1?

Thanks everyone.

I live in Gage Park here in Chicago.

Random...can any buckeyes fans or anybody tell me anything about Eric Wallace's game? Just curious...

no Toby = I'm a lot less interested
