So apparently they are at about "80-85" percent on the deal and people are sticking around because it could be done in a few days.. how the f*** could they not have been like this months ago and avoided this bulls***?

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 12:51 PM) A five-day title reign (that was actually a 2-day reign) really cheapens a title in my eyes as well. Another gripe I have is Vince's weird problem with the word "belt". He throws a hissy-fit if anyone refers to the leather thing with the gold plates on it as a belt or strap. Apparently, Vince thinks calling the belt a belt (or a strap) is old-time hokey carnival speak. That's asinine, IMO. I heard on Formerly Creative (a GREAT podcast created by former WWE writer David Lagana) that Paul London once was busted open legit during a match and did a really good intense, bloody backstage promo, only to have Stephanie squash it because London said that "______ will never take this belt from me". She told Lagana "You know I can't show that to Vince - he said BELT." and that was the end of that promo. To me, it's ridiculous to hear an announcer say that "Christian hit Randy Orton with the WWE title". Noooooo, he hit him with the BELT that represents the title! haha wow, I never even caught on that no one has been saying belt Ive got a good feeling that once Vince is out of the equation thinks will change for the better.. especially if Trips is the new man in charge

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 11:12 PM) It all depends on what the next Playstation or Xbox will feature. The new Battlefield game will be one of the first games to really push the newer generation video cards on PC. It is not economical for the Wii U to feature a new gen. card given its expensive controller, but I feel like Microsoft and Sony will definitely put something a lot more powerful in their next gen. machines. Battlefield looks absolutely gorgeous from everything ive seen.. that engine is incredible

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) Now I am hearing that the Astros owner said he wants to stay in the NL (no s***), but the Dbacks said they are willing to move to the AL if it helps the league. that would SUCK The Sox haven't been down here since the early 2000's when Ray Durham was still on the team.. im ready to actually go to 3 or 4 Sox games in a row..

QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 04:23 PM) The difference is I KNOW mine are terrible and will tell you up front. I have no delusions that they're at all good

I just REALLY hope that they send the Astros to the AL.. That would be awesome to be able to go to all the Sox games when they come down here

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 11:19 PM) My only gripe with any of these titles these days is that no one gets a serious run anymore. When the world title changes hands 16 times in the last two years, it tends to decrease the importance in my eyes. absolutely Im not a fan of that either

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 11:28 PM) Oh OK, since you became a fan during the summer after the moves happened, you are a true fan. My apologies. Sorry for the loss tonight. No worries, they'll be back.. appreciate your sympathy though

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 11:18 PM) Um what? I think some of you guys need to go find the definition of a bandwagon fan

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:42 PM) So before Jordan came into the league, were you a Celtics or Lakers fan? well, I was born in 84 so before Jordan came into the league I was living in my dads nut sack and wasn't a fan of any teams

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:34 PM) You can't catch too much grief for being a Heat fan. There's only like 10 of us in the world now. Apparently, I like how its being made to appear ive been posting in this thread all year trashing everything non Heat.. And just for the record so J4L can make a mental note of this.. I like the Colorado Avalanche, all Illini sports, and Kansas State football.. outside of the obvious White Sox and Dolphins.. I can name other sports related things im a fan of too just in case you see me mention a team that I neglected to list..

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:28 PM) GMAB, tru. You jumped on the Heat bandwagon like Oprah jumped on those corn dogs during one of her recent shows. You had that avatar of the Heat 'celebration' the day after the Decision. You never talked about or made it known you were a Heat fan before that. Yeah, im pretty sure i JUST explained that I decided to follow the Heat once LeBron and Co. signed up there.. and the Heat SIGNATURE that I had was because they had the jerseys lined up to say "3:16" which, as a wrestling fan, I liked.. I don't really care if you think I bandwagoned the Heat.. You act like I was a diehard Celtics fan and all of the sudden switched to Miami.. I already told you, im not a huge NBA fan.. I like certain players more than I like actual teams

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:26 PM) I just remember you all over the LeBron thing. Oh well. I'll go WAAAH now. Thats because I WAS all over it, but I was never talking s*** to anyone about it.. you guys act like they aren't gonna be back..

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) So you bandwagoned when the Heat got Bosh and LeBron? No. First of all, its hard to be a bandwagon fan before any games have been played.. secondly as I already explained during last summer, I am not a huge NBA fan and have really never had a favorite team outside of following the Bulls when they had Jordan due to my mom and being from Chicago and then following Orlando when they had Shaq and Penny.. I already liked LeBron and Wade as individual players as it is..

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:21 PM) Dude, relax. I'm just messing with you. Thats fine then, but I thought you were being legit which made no sense to me as I didn't say anything that deserved the responses I was getting from you..

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:15 PM) Because I remember your dickhole responses last summer and then you come in and be a hater. It's ok, kid (since I'm an old dickhole). And I'm just pulling your chain. Ide be interested to see these comments I made as I don't remember being a dickhole in any of them.. the only thing I did was say that I liked the Heat and would be following them as my team now.. I wasn't talking s*** to anyone.. and me saying "well that sucked" isn't a "hater" statement.. believe it or not, not everyone hates the Heat.. why don't you get off the sour grapes of the Heat wiping their ass with the Bulls and relax

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 10:10 PM) No, I'm like 80 and slobbering all over my keyboard. gmafb, kid. why are you being a dickhole for no reason what-so-ever?

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 09:49 PM) WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. lol, grow up aren't you like 50? I wasn't crying about it, gmafb

well that sucked

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 12, 2011 -> 01:05 AM) My friend said he's got a 40 GB HDD lying around, so that'll help. if that's the case, then its a pretty good deal for a new CPU and an XBOX for around 700 or so..

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 04:02 PM) I don't know why they should. The talent level no longer appears watered down like one could have said 15 years ago. There are very few/no teams that are actively losing money except through horrid management. Franchise value and revenue is soaring. Even teams that have been downtrodden for a decade (Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh) are showing promise. KC, as you stated, has a young and up and coming roster, hopefully several future all stars on it, the All Star game is in KC this year, and supposedly a lovely and updated ballpark. the all star game is in Arizona this year

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 03:39 AM) Looks like I'm gonna end up getting one using some graduation money, because my current PC is on its last legs. So, since its only 4GB, is it even worth getting games like Mass Effect (since I can't play the original on PS3), Gears, or Fable 2 & 3? No because you aren't going to have enough GB to save anything.. creating profiles, the avatar stuff, DLC, games.. it eats up a good chunk of GB.. not so much on mine since I have 250 GB, but if you only have 4 GB you're not going to be able to do much.. For example, most demos are about 1G.. its pretty shallow

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 02:54 AM) FYI, for all your haters, or those who didn't believe me when I insisted Morel had a history of an adjustment period to each league..... Morel is batting .329 since May 1st. yeah but how many walks does he have since May 1st... check and mate sir

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 8, 2011 -> 03:07 AM) YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS well played sir, well played..
