QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:23 PM) I was being sarcastic ribbie, I know you haven't been around here much lately but I defend the team as much as anyone in these game threads so I was just making light of the situation. Sometimes I forget...Some remarks are so obviously sarcastic they don't need to be in green. -

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 11:40 AM) How true, I never even thought of that. I thought it was very funny to hear that the Tigers were laughing on the bases last night...thought they had it in the bag. So did a lot of people here... -
QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 09:52 AM) I can't wait for this movie to come out. After the only commercial I saw for this movie, I HAVE TO SEE IT!!! It had something to do with Willie Wonka telling someone not to touch the squirrels' nuts and cut to a shot of a squirrel b**** slapping someone. I was dying after seeing that clip. Thats from the original book. The Gene Wilder movie changed the squirrels into Geese that lay golden eggs. In the book (and I guess the new movie) the Squirrel's are sorting good nuts from bad nuts....Veruca Salt is a bad nut.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 08:16 AM) If Aaron Rowand played CF last night, Brandon has his first ML win. True that... That's alright, we got the team win!

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 08:11 AM) Scroll down to the rumor mill section. So, no Chavez, no Randa and no Schmidt. Who's out there that is not only attainable, but also helpful? http://www.suntimes.com/output/sox/cst-spt-doug30.html That's what they said last year about Garcia. That the Yankees were going to get him because the White Sox did not have the players Seattle wanted...

I just saw this film last night. It was great. This isn't fuzzy Spielberg who gave us Hook and ET. This is down and dirty Spielberg. He is showing us a genocide. A brutal attack without remorse. There are no cocky pilots or computer viruses to upload. We are not privy to what the President thinks, there are no sappy images of children running in front posters of JFK. ...This is about one man, one very flawed man, acting on his own insticts...to save his family at all costs. Spielberg keeps his camera at ground level throughout most of the movie. There are no "money shots" of huge CGI scenes of cities being blown up. You are made to feel you are in the chaos. People turning into ash in front of your face. This is a war. This is about fear. Tom Cruise is fantastic. His character is that Frat Boy whose life has past him by... He wasted his opportunities. Dakota Fanning is scary good. This girl is only 11, she must be a robot. And the Tripods...badass motherf***ers! This is not a remake of George Pal's version. This is a modern look at HG Wells story, just as Pal's was in his time. All three are allegories for the World we were living in... I give it two fingers way up!

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 07:26 PM) Bases loaded, no outs? What else would anyone expect? Thank God the Tigers suck at situational hitting and with RISP. Well, if you know how bad the tigers are with RISP and situational hitting...Why are you saying the Game is over then?? -

QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 06:00 PM) I said "please pull him now" because he looks god-awful out there and has looked god-awful since the Cubs game. I'd rather have Cotts in for the next five than BMac for any of them. I tried to put an optimistic spin on things after his last start, but there's no silver lining in the way he looks. He's just done. At least for the time being. Also, I told you guys Frank's average would come down Um..Cotts is one of our main set-up men. His arm has not been stretched out this year for FIVE innings. -

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 05:59 PM) Nono, I was just saying that his night so far is in line with his ERA, so its about what we should expect. Little less than a run an inning overall. Oh ok...gotcha -

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) Well, his ERA is over 8, so maybe they are just assuming. Need I point out the "Looking Back" thread on this board's track record with assumptions?? BMac may not be MLB ready yet, but jeez. People here act like we started him over Roger Clemens or passed on a trade for Roy Halliday to play BMac instead. He only gave up 2 runs so far... -

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 05:50 PM) I don't know why KW continues to make the same mistake he did last year in regards to putting a pitcher on the mound, who if he has a good game, will give up about 5 runs. It really does seem that Felix Diaz is spanish for Brandon McCarthy. I'm sorry...who were we supposed to start instead? -

QUOTE(jerseysox @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 02:31 PM) I'm going to make my guess, barring a rain out that day of course, Sept. 6 against the Royals. If anyone gets it right, you will win my undying respect. How about a guess when we'll win the World Series? My guess Oct 26!!!
