Milkman delivers

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 02:13 PM) I thought "Contagion" was pretty well done, considering there's like a billion movies with that premise. That's the reason I had no desire to see it, despite its great cast.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 12:38 PM) I wonder what happened.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 11:22 AM) I think VS models are more thin and less curvy than Upton. Being 19, Kate could still be growing into her body. Some pics she had wide thighs, which is fine. I actually prefer a little more meat on the bones than some models have. My one worry about Upton is that her boobs could be hanging kind of low in 5 years if not taken care of. Crossing my fingers. That, for sure. A lot of models seem grossly skinny when they're not airbrushed. A girl like Upton is the real deal. I've known girls personally that lost a lot of weight (when you wouldn't have considered them even chubby), and they lose a ton of their appeal to me. I'm sure that fact is killing them.

The title of the thread is incredibly misleading.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 11:18 AM) In that case, the ballpark was mostly structurally sound, so they did renovations sequentially over a series of offseasons. And I"m not sure how much you can credit "Theo" personally for the plan. Wrigley's problem is that the stadium itself is approaching the point where it will no longer be a structurally sound building. Simply doing piecemeal renovations to add seating capacity will not change that fact. I was going to chime in with the same thing. The Theo hype is absurd.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 09:46 AM) Can you believe the model casting director for the Victorias Secret Angels said that Upton isn't good enough to be an Angel? I haven't flipped through a Victoria's Secret since probably the time frame I mentioned above, but do their women usually fit a specific criteria? I know Upton's boobs are huge, but her ass isn't particularly great (not that it's bad). Her boobs are definitely the draw with her. Do Victoria's Secret models usually have a combination of both while also having smaller boobs than Upton's? I know the commercials are usually about push-up bras or whatever kind makes the rack look bigger, and that's something Upton wouldn't really need. I'm just enjoying this conversation, so getting more in-depth will be fun.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 11:04 AM) Yeah that's what I was getting at. They could have safely detonated it. Pick it up, cut the wire and throw the thing into the ocean. My wife seems to think the defuser guy was just being cocky. But that's still pretty weak and unbelievable. I don't know any bomb squad guys personally, but I'm guessing that it's one of those professions where you never act cocky while doing it.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 08:36 AM) The other thing is Ciaran Hinds and Sam Worthington look nothing alike. Did the Director owe Hinds a favor or something? I like Ciaran Hinds, so it makes no difference to me.

Sorry for your loss.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 08:25 AM) Was the surgeon a real person or was he supposed to be a fictional version of Josef Mengele? Without looking into it at all, I'll guarantee that he's just based on Mengele. Man, that guy has been used in tons of movies. There's Marathon Man, The Boys From Brazil, and The Debt just off of the top of my head.

I stopped reading this thread days ago. Why the hell is it even still going?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 08:16 AM) Signed a kid before his graduation. http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/natio...9w2Q_story.html The entire Orioles franchise is banned from Korea?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 08:02 AM) Watched The Debt last night. Was fairly entertaining, and Jessica Chastain is hot...but the movie was entirely not what I had hoped it would be. I hate when a movie is advertised as something other than it really is through manipulation of the trailer. Completely agreed.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 06:03 AM) Kate Upton overload. Didn't realize she is only 19. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012_swim...pton/?eref=sihp I'm honestly tempted to masturbate to non-pornographic material for the first time since grade school.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 08:52 AM) Anyone still watching Alcatraz or The River? I thought both this week were pretty meh, though I'll give props to The River for creating some genuinely tense moments. I forgot to watch The River. I'll have to catch it online.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 08:54 AM) In that we agree but I take it to the extreme? Yes, most of the time.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 11:08 PM) Sox fans need to seriously start worrying about a 48 year old Ichiro and Torii Hunter on wheels rolling around in the outfield soon. I know Manny got to take an iPod with him while on "defense"- would canes and respirators be permissible? I'm sorry for using Manny as an example again, but he was able to relieve himself inside the Green Monster while a pitcher was being relieved on the mound. Catheters just seem like they would be more convenient and would allow the outfielders to study whoever was in the on-deck circle like a hawk would study it's opposition (smaller-sized mammals). Bonus- opposing hitters would have to get used to being surrounded by four hawks. The fourth has an ideal vantage point perched directly behind home plate enabling him to assist the umpiring crew with any trouble they may have in making a correct decision. Bonus 2 - game worn jerseys are big business for memorabilia stores , but game used collection bags would be sought after with a furor that is typically reserved for the festively plump at a lunch buffet that closes in 45 seconds. I couldn't tell if you were joking at first, but it got clearer and clearer

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 06:06 AM) That bolded part refers to Romney, whom the public is increasingly disliking. Isn't he still the front runner? He'll get the nomination.

QUOTE (daggins @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 05:02 PM) The Sox should replace Hawkeroo with Jim Ross I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:23 PM) My only issue would be Cubs fans defacing the decorations around the park or stealing souvenirs. That's what I was saying.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 06:08 PM) Ahhh. Jose Valentin. Mr. Clutch! I remember being at that game vs the Yankees in June of 2000 when he came up and got a clutch basehit to bring home Herbert Perry for the win! This is now the greatest thread in Soxtalk history.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:26 PM) What does the moron even stand for? 59 point economic plan. Okay. What does it say? Whatever the f*** he wants it to say. That's kind of the point. He is a jackass. At least with Obama, you know what you get, even contrary to what you (specifically SS because I know you have issues with the guy) may think. And the public has seemed to eat it up.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 05:14 PM) Cowboys and Aliens. Ugh. What drek. When it comes to movies and TV, I feel like you're an exaggeration of me.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 02:28 PM) I'll never forget that game-winning slide into home against Oakland. Thomas doubled off the wall and Stache scored from first I think. Then there were fireworks after all that. Maybe my best night at the cell. Yup and ditto.

This thread is absolutely packed with win.
