  1. I was also an early adopter of AOL, in fact my original SN is still active and its only 4 characters (my parents use it now).
  2. Kyrie is going to try to hero ball it again next game and will go 4-22 and they will lose.
  3. Thats why I planned my own. I wanted golf and a casino so we went to scottsdale.
  4. QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 09:08 AM) Exactly. I would be angrier if I paid for it myself. Ill call them again today and they will do some "magic" and ill get back up to my speeds and then tomorrow it will be back down.
  5. Just did a morning speed test, 3.43 download. Comcast is such a crock of s***
  6. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 06:15 PM) I get 125 on average, paying for 100. You living on a nuclear power plant or something? jeez
  7. The speeds that IPs sell you are a crock of s*** anyway. It's an "up to" speed which is rarely ever hit. I pay for 100mbps and I probably average 25.

    QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 02:08 PM) Got an Extreme 5 and it keeps ice in it for 4-5 days just sitting on my back porch. And less than $100. Exactly. Unless you NEED something Grizzly proof its a waste of money.
  9. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 01:10 PM) Obama is right on this issue. These ISIS people should not be given access to assault rifles! Why in the hell does any American need an assault rifle?? So a fear of the police turning on the citizenry has Americans loading up on assault weapons? I hate to break it to them. If the police decide to fight us, they will win. Ever hear of them dropping hand grenades on your house, etc? You don't need an assault rifle. Good question Greg, the answer is they dont. Nobody needs high capacity clips and assault rifles. They arent for hunting, they are for killing other people. They should be illegal to manufacture.
  10. QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:33 PM) Eh, I wouldn't always stick with them. I've had 3 Samsungs and have had major issues with two of them. One was a plasma in which there was a blue hue leaking onto different parts of the screen, it would never be consistent and started 3 months after I bought the thing. Another one had a large buzzing sound which was related to the power inside the tv. For TVs, I don't think there is one brand I'll always go to. Only time that was the case is when Panasonic was selling their Viera plasma tvs and Pioneer was selling their stuff. Many a times, I'll shop at Microcenter for a new tv. Usually it's the previous year's models, but they're all brand new, come with warranty and are way cheaper. Last tv I got there was a LG 60 inch plasma for $600 flat. By far the best tv I've ever had. Also, I've bought tvs from Target while they're an open item, usually getting a few hundred off the price. panels are certainly important, its necessary to see where they come from.
  11. I liked it, I'm shocked there wasnt enough gore in that episode for some, because there was tons. Dany finally made it back, so shes moving. We finally have the makings of a war for the north. Arya is finally leaving and Cesei is f***ed. Pretty good all around. I'm wondering what Varys is up to.
  12. QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 01:22 PM) MLB lists him as a 1B. Scouting report says he use to catch before he had labrum surgery. I think thats a similar injury to Max Pentecost who is working on returning behind the plate. So maybe another level of value there. Im seeing OF for the Sox
  13. QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 01:17 PM) Callis said that Fisher is one of the best college bats in the draft. Mayo said he loves the Sox getting a lefty hitter like him in the 4th. So they seem to both like it. Well thats damn good news
  14. QUOTE (skooch @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 01:17 PM) Speaking of eating innings ... I didn't see the last game vs. WAS, why did Robin pull MiGo after 6 innings having thrown only 78 pitches w/ 3H, 1R, 0BB, 5K? Seems odd for a team that has been so concerned with innings consumption from their starters. What gives? He was toast with big bats coming up.
  15. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 01:06 PM) Right an extra inning or 2 a start. Up until Seattle, he had been going 6 or 7 every start. Supposed to be trickle down effect on the pen. We will see. EJ and Latos clearly couldnt pull that off.
  16. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 12:55 PM) If Anderson is worse than Rollins and Shields worse than Latos and/or Anderson, someone is building their own grave. So I would think they are confident these are upgrades. Shields was awful, but he's not that bad. I think there is better than 50/50 shot he is better than Latos. Whether that's worth picking up the money they pay him, I don't know. If Anderson falls on his face, he'll just go back to Charlotte and Sanchez or someone else will take his place. It shouldn't be all that hard to get at least Rollins level production, but as we have seen before, sometimes that isn't as easy as it seems. Shields is supposed to eat more innings than Latos basically. Thats his job.
  17. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:53 AM) His eye has gotten better this year, but the bat still has to come around, because that is literally the only thing that will keep him in the majors. You can throw three at his eye level and he will strike out. He cant see s***
  18. QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:42 AM) Would AAA do Avi any good or is he just cooked? His huge weakness is he cannot recognize pitches, at all. I dont think he ever develops that.
  19. QUOTE (Vance Law @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:22 AM) Tyler Saladino .1 WAR Jimmy Rollins .1 WAR Alexei Ramirez -.4 WAR
  20. QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:16 AM) Well we can thank Jimmy Rollins for helping us get rid of LaRoche. That was worth the price of admission. True dat
  21. QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:06 AM) This guys call up clock started ticking in the back of every Sox fans mind the minute we drafted him. LOL Yep, pretty much. He would probably be the second most patient hitter in our lineup day 1
  22. Honestly, he looked pretty ready to me in ST so I think his offensive improvements make him even closer to being there. He better be put in the lineup immediately.
  23. He better play almost every day if we are pulling him up here.
  24. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 09:09 PM) Believe they stopped physical notifications to save money. Yeah and its awful. Most of them are in your spam.
