I feel kinda bad for the big guy. I don't know how much of it shows through on the board, but I'm pretty high-strung in the same vein as Dama, thought my exploits aren't nearly as colorful. I'm just a really short-tempered uptight guy sometimes. It's that whole backed-into-a-corner feeling where you're always feeling like you're on the defensive against everyone and you get really worked up.

because he's mine, wildpegasus walks the line

Why didn't they get rid of the spinner-belt

Hey, did they get rid of the spinner-belt

Part of me has a soft spot for the Grizzlies, having been to Memphis and such. I think they deserve a winning sports team.

Jim Everett : TSM :: Jim Rome : Dama

Grossman is no top-echelon quarterback, but even I can see that he's miles and miles ahead of Kyle Orton. Of course Grossman for next season.

LFO I can give more off-base recommendations than Corey Lazarus

L-A-T-E-R that week!

On second thought, maybe an MLB channel wouldn't be so bad, if they take over from ESPN Classic in terms of old games and TWIB reruns.

"Let's just say we had some problems in protection," Manning said. "I'll give Pittsburgh credit for their blitzes and their rush, but we did have some protection problems." That's about it. Followed by some line about wanting not to be a bad teammate. I remember he said something else but I'll be damned if I can find it anywhere. OH GOD UNFUCKING CALLED FOR Sounds like he tried to give a fair assessment. Listening to this board between Leinart and Manning, one would think quarterbacks are supposed to practice Japanese ritual suicide upon a loss.

Well if we're gonna take it in that direction "Mary Pierce is down a set, but you'd never guess from watching"

Loggers is okay Beavers is/was their minor league team, it's okay, but minor league. Beavers are funny-looking. NO SINGULAR NOUNS We already have LA Kings, Sacramento Kings, and KC Royals.

Mullet Hewitt > Buzzcut Hewitt, I don't care what anyone says.

Hardcore discussion.

I initially read that as "Damaramu's inability to understand all things sporks" and I started laughing hysterically. I'm not high.

Coffey is a terrible arbiter of member quality, and Black Lushus's post made me smile for a moment.

Was the 2001 Wimbledon final the last match for Rafter as well as Ivanisevic? I'm pretty sure it was. EDIT: okay, no. I guess Rafter stuck around for a year, and Goran tried to come back in '04. Should've quit after Wimbledon.

Too bad so many things prevent baseball from succeeding in Las Vegas!

You know who I miss? Patrick Rafter. I heard he was giving it to Jelena Dokic pretty hard.

He meant "elfdogg," he types in an accent.

I don't think there's enough of a market for an MLB network for the reasons you specified. ESPN is basically the MLB network in the summer, when it comes to lots of national games (I think they have to at least try to cover all 30 teams in the agreement), if people wanted the AFL and winter ball, I'm sure YES, NESN, and friends could find a few hours to put it. The only national coverage that's really needed is October and a few games of the week on Saturday afternoons. In Fox's case, the Saturday games aren't wiping out ratings winners; that time is usually thrown to the affiliates to fill with Buffy or M*A*S*H reruns. I don't know what the other three do offhand, but it's never anything crucial, because most people are spending Saturdays in May and June outside enjoying the weather.

Like a Cadillac DeVille, to appeal to all the old people

The New Jersey Devils are also bad for children; they might grow up to believe that the best way to win at hockey is the neutral zone trap

1. They only chose it because all the good names were hijacked by one of those "I register a million domain names and make you buy them from me" motherfuckers 2. Four words. It's cumbersome. I mean, there's a cadence to it, but it's long. 3. The name is now inextricably tied with futility. 4. Devil ray?
