Crimson Storm pick: Mason, Desmond (GF-Mil) Yes, he is available. to everyone.

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.

What can I say, I do my homework when I am picking. I was even more surprised that Pacer fanboy Alfdogg let Al Harrington slip to me this late as well. I was all set to pick up some other guys and lo and behold, Harrington and Miller were still not picked. I think the reasoning some people got missed is because a lot of people went with certain categories (as did I), or needed to pick up some roleplayers in the final rounds. Oh and I like head-to-head, but I'd prefer just kicking the shit out my opponent for a single win. Not hoping to God I steal a 5-2 victory.

Sorry, but do you know how many lamebrains change their orders and fuck with us? I mean, seriously now, it just ain't the guys that are taking the orders that have problems. I had one customer make 15 seperate changes to a single order. And I was doing drive thru.

No, it's deep fried. The McChicken? Deep fried. You know that Filet sandwich? That's deep fried too. Actually, the steak is like the Fajita Chicken. Just marinated. Oh and I agree with what you say. Also may I add that if you ever see a burger that was already made ask for another one to be done up. Trust me on that one. Pepper Jack. Something pepperish. I'm quite sure Pepper Jack. Try it. It's not for everyone, but at least it's better than most crap we bring in as our specials.

Uh, I eat McD's. Not as much as I used too, but if I've got hunger pains, then I do. Plus the bastards have no fridge to store food in, so it's like they MAKE us buy their food. Bastards...

And thankfully, I might get to pick up the guy I had in mind this pick. Unless Dawn picks him. And then I'm going to kick myself for picking Morrison.

And DawnBTVS is up to pick.

...this is American (Illinois State to be more precise) grade 8 math? ...is it wrong for me to admit I was doing this stuff in grade 7? Even worse, this is the easy stuff at grade 7. I mean, I was learning algebra and higher crap than this at grade 7. Actually, looking at all the other questions, most of this is like grade 6 math. Wow... Simply wow. This is grade 8 math? Geez, I'd be a wizard down there. 7/10 because I read three questions wrong. Two dealing with Surface Area (I thought depth), and the other because I didn't take into account the -5 on the triangle.

If he didn't decide the game how can he be responsible, in any sense, for the loss? This is what I'm getting at. You keep saying that he's partly the reason for the loss. But he can only be accounted for at most single run, and that's only playing what ifs. That means that all he did was make it 3-1. How is he partly responsible for the other 7 runs? Did he suddenly start playing for the Marlins? Because I certainly didn't see him on the field against the Cubs. I don't think he (Alou) would've had it. And this is the problem. It's not clear or cut by any angles I have seen that he had a clear shot regardless of if the fan got in the way. My own train of opinion is that Alou was a little late in getting there and it would've been in the stands regardless. At least you agree with me that the Cubs hated it. On the order of it's different because you can play much more defensive, must I bring up the fact that Indy vs. TB from the NFL? Um, TB's about as defensive as it gets, yet a 21 point lead was destroyed. So no lead is a safe lead. But yes, they did take advantage of something that shouldn't have bothered the Cubs as much as it apparently did. Oh. Well you see, I didn't take it the way you said, but now that you say it like that, I get it better. I didn't say he didn't cause an out from being lost (and maybe the run). But the rest of it, is the Cubs fault.

And the two people above me took my two thoughts that I was going to point out.

Um... Actually, right now I've only got FGM, FTM, 3PM, PTS, RB, BLK, ST. Until I know otherwise, that's all I'm having.

Actually, yes they can be boiling hot if they were freshly made as they are still covered in the frying oils. If it was during peak hours for eating and assuming that she managed to grab a "fresh" batch of fries, I say it's highly likely he'd received some slight burns from them. Nothing major, but still it would hurt pretty badly for a four year old boy. Still though, how can you blame a four year old for accidently smearing ice cream on you? It's going to happen. They do it normally. Geez...

No. I can deny it. Where the hell was the pitching? Where the hell was the defense? So the guy botched an out. So it's 1st and 3rd with 1 out. Are you telling me that because of ONE single person, that the game was decided? If so, then the Cubs (and their fans) don't deserve to win the Series if they believe the game was decided by that one happening. I'm sorry, I don't buy that a whole team gets fully deflated because of a single happening. If so, then they aren't Championship material and should be no where near the Series. And you don't get it. What if Alou didn't catch it? You are basing it on that Alou would've totally caught it no problem. Therein lies fault: what ifs. What if there still is a chance that Alou didn't have it. Sure could've been catchable, but who's to say Alou didn't hit the fence and the ball drifts out and falls thus no out. What if there was no fan interfence and Alou didn't make the catch at all? You know what, there are a lot of what ifs could've happened. It happened, and you fucking move on. As I said before, if they can't get over stuff that is apart of the game, which happens to be fans going after foul balls and homeruns, how can they expect to win the Series? I picked 7-0 as an example. You should know that it was an example. And I declare bullshit on your statement of "a 3-0 lead in baseball is different than a 3-0 lead in hockey". If you've got the defence playing right, the pitching doing stellar, a 3-0 lead can be as safe as any lead. As long as you play like it means everything in the world. Obviously, for the Cubs, that lead wasn't the most important thing to them (as apparently, they let a single fan become their focal point). And how did that fan turn the game into the Marlins favour? You mean the Marlins couldn't actually put forth a decent effort otherwise? You mean that they weren't trying to put out an effort to make another game out of this? You mean that the Marlins weren't trying to gain a Series birth? You go from saying "he changed the flow of the game" and thusly it costed them the game, to "he shouldn't be blamed for the loss", then back to "opened the floodgates". Yes, I stretched what you said out a little bit, but seriously, you are being a little hypocritical as you were saying he was responsible for the loss but kinda-not really-sorta saying he isn't now. As for feeling like shit, I probably would too. Just because I costed the team a chance at an out. Not because the Cubs blew the game. Yes, it was stupid thing that everyone does and thusly because it's done now, it's a big deal. But you are arguing that the guy costed the game for the Cubs. If he costed the Cubs the game, breaking rules or not, you still are attesting that he was in the wrong. You can't tell me otherwise. Again, as I said before, so it's a little easier. It fucking happens. It's apart of the game and the Cubs still could've ended it right then and there if they weren't going off "oh our big fan costed us the game, wah, wah, wah" in their little heads. Please, I'm tired of this. Yes, it's a big game. Yes, the fan did something stupid. But you know, it's apart of the game and if that one little thing bothers that team, I really hope the Marlins kick the fucking hell out of the Cubs in the next game. The fan did something silly. Weee... Like this hasn't happened many, many times before, in different baseball games and in important games. But you know what's really funny, the only reason this one time is getting the press or the guy is getting self-right blame at him, is not because the guy is a Cubs fan and he (supposedly) blew his teams chance to win, or that the Cubs (supposedly) lost because of it, or even that it was a stupid thing to do. It's the fact that the Cubs self-imploded because of it. That the Cubs basically tossed in the towel from a little mishap that could've been done by any other person. It's only because, the Cubs gave up and costed themselves the game.

I might do that... I'll just see what happens and report back to you guys.

You are definitely in awe (or blandness) of the niceness of WMXIX and RAW2. Seriously, I really hope this plays out well. Personally, I'm leaning to buying WMXIX so far. Yes, it has a crappy story mode, but at least the "King of The Ring" thing isn't half bad. I mean, my Caw of perfect 10s got it's ass whooped by Chavo Guerrero (who became the World Heavyweight Champion).

Sadly, the bastard is playing the "charisma" bullshit angles. He doesn't have any high quality matches and hence why he's being a pain in the ass and won't die.

Considering this thing has taken... oh... about a year or two to finally get to being ready, it better be good when finished.

And so it's a "thick" playbook. Everyone on the team should still play the same. That one player has to get adjusted to the system. It's like any other game. New guy needs to get associated with the gameplay. Besides, most teams have the "basic" gameplays and really just have defensive strats that specify needs-to-do stuff. All you have to do, is give that guy time to adjust to the system. Now why is it that it's different for bringing a guy off the waivers who was cut and give the guy a starting position out of the blue (who was probably cut maybe two weeks ago) and yet, it's totally different if the guy was traded just recently and given that position? As for baseball, I just used as an example.

This is true. I'll fiddle with the league as soon as the draft is completed and see if I can't get it working to the way we wanted it. If I can, that'll be great. If not, it's 7 "games" per week.

I went to bed, so I couldn't respond. Sue me for the lateness of this. One play? Excuse me? I didn't just see one play that fucked things up for the Cubs. 8 runs does not justify one play going wrong. That's eight plays too many. Yes, I can understand a little collapse. Maybe two runs at best. But eight? Come on, you are giving that fan a little too much credit there. That's like saying a team (I'll use a hockey one) is up 7-0 with 5 minutes left in the game, lets in a single fluke goal from behind the opposition's own net because it took a funny hop. Do you let that bother you? Yes, probably if the puck takes a funny hop on the ice again. But their still up 7-1. That's barely an excuse to allow a 5 minute collapse so that they not only allow their opponents to tie the game, but to beat them out like 12-7. And their only excuse is "if only the ice didn't allow for that silly hop, then we'd have that win". It's an excuse. That fan costed them an out. They are professional players. Shit like that shouldn't bother them. It's not a reason that they botched a game they had control of. It's not a reason for them to allow eight runs in a single inning. It is not a reason that the guy would've done the SAME EXACT THING YOU WOULD DO~! It was a foul ball. You cannot say to me "oh he's a bad man for going after that ball." What about the other fans reaching for it as well? Where the fuck is blame on those guys? They were reaching for it as well, not just that single fan. Why don't you blame every single one of them. Can you honestly tell me you wouldn't have reached for it? It's a foul ball. Honestly, I would've done it. I would've went after that ball, cause by all accounts, it was foul. It's coming my way, and I've got a chance to catch it. If I was sitting in the bleachers where he was, I probably would've guessed that Alou didn't have a shot at getting it. It probably seemed that way. In the end, the Cubs are the only ones that can be blamed for eight runs being scored. How the hell can one fan be blamed for a team's own fuck up. It's an excuse of the poorest kind to blame that single fan. If you blow a lead and allow yourself to get trumped up all in one fell swoop, you and only you are accountable in the end. Whatever happens otherwise is just something you must just learn happened, it was done and live with it.

*coughCFLcoughdoescoughitcoughbarelycough* Geez, somedays I just get this nasty cough, you know? Seriously though, I don't buy it. Yes, it's true that adding someone new definitely can create some chaos, but wouldn't that happen if you trade away your starting goalie in the NHL? Your go to pitcher in the MLB? Your clutch shooter in the NBA? And getting some new guys for it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's a risk you take. But if it makes your team overally stronger, why the hell wouldn't you? Sure, the leagues I showed have less people to worry about making sure they do their job, but really, they (sports players) can't let shit like that bother them. They are getting paid millions of dollars to do their job. Someone new should be the only one worrying about his positioning in the offensive/defensive scheme.
