The Chiefs are kicking the shit out of a Browns team who I THOUGHT was tough on the road, so I'd give them the nod right now. Behind them, it's a dead heat between the Colts, Pats and Titans. And Flutie Flakes has the Chargers up 7-0 already.

MIAMI SCORES!!!!! HO-LY SHIT HO-LY SHIT HO-LY SHIT!!!

Missed the did you?

The Patriots beat them.......

For the record: I fucking hate bye weeks. Arizona at Pittsburgh Atlanta at N.Y. Giants Chicago at Detroit Cleveland at Kansas City Houston at Cincinnati Indianapolis at Jacksonville Miami at Tennessee (LOCK N' LOAD) Seattle at Washington (Here's hoping for a blowout, just to see if Snyder runs into the coach's handshake at the end and starts strangling Spurrier) Tampa Bay at Carolina Minnesota at San Diego (The Chargers NEED a friggin' win) Buffalo at Dallas N.Y. Jets at Oakland Baltimore at St. Louis Philadelphia at Green Bay (Monday Night)

I think around March 2001 or so. I remember Keith pretty much made the decision himself and (big surprise) pissed a few people off who hated EZBoard.

No worries, it'll be finished in 6 months.......make that a year........make that 2005......wait, 2006, but it's gonna take a few more hundred million dollars.....aw shit, one of the workers stubbed his toe on a beam, better make it 2009 now. And John Kerry is a major tool.

I joined in late 2000 at the old Delphi board (clunkiest board ever), then followed the path through the Baby Blue Smarks, Banana Smarks, The "GPC Exodus", Ikonboard, Keith finally giving up and going to 411, and finally TSM. Scott Keith's face on Adolf Hitler's body has to go down in history.

Gee, what a shock THAT was, huh? The thing is, Manny was cool with the whole thing, like a team actually was going to pick up a 5 year, $104 million contract without a second thought. I am getting kind of worried about this team.

What the hell? Do the Red Sox have some sort of genetic disposition to just let go of their best players without getting anything in return? Theo is rapidly losing his "Boy Genius" moniker.

Yet another classic. And there goes the tagline I was going to use if I did a review for TSM in the near future. I'm stealing that UYI, and don't try to stop me.

Ah, nothing says Greatest Wrestler of All Time than Lemmy's chronic "I gotta shit, but nothin's coming out" lyrics. Oh yeah? Well........Goldberg sucks!!

Maybe you have to go into the CAW and change Flair's theme yourself. Goddamit, it's in Shrewsbury, MA right now (about an hour from me). If someone reading this works in the UPS warehouse there, you think you could sneak the package down to me tonight? It's only a video game, so the box can't be THAT big to stuff under your jacket. PLZ!?!?

That was the confetti cannons going off after Hutch won. They just tacked on Matt's "WHAT IS GOING ON?!" in editing to make it seem like something different.

Lucky bastard, mine is sitting in East Syracuse, NY right now. I should get it tomorrow. Curse you THQ for making me act like an 8 year old on Christmas Eve.

Here's another review from 1UP. It got an 8/10: Review

But he hasn't, not for any team yet. And Oakland has, but the playoffs have exposed their weaknesses (inefficient offense, no leadership)

It's just that this whole change in attitude seems so..........nerdish to me. Relying on stat geeks, like the Ultimate Geek Bill James to make decisions instead of the manager thinking "Hmm, Ortiz really hasn't done well against Mussina in his career, but he's hitting everything nowadays, so why not put him in the lineup?" or "Well, my ace pitcher is doing pretty well, and I have confidence in him getting out of the inning with the lead." And learning what works and what doesn't. My bottom line is: Grady Little won 90+ games in his first two years as manager, which only four other managers have done. The players liked him, and the team would have had a MAJOR chip on their shoulder after falling so short of the Series. Now, they have to deal with a brand new manager, one who may not know (or want to know) how to deal with a bunch of guys on the last year of their contracts and someone like Manny Ramirez. I am actually hearing from people that the Sox should blow it up, trade Nomar, trade Lowe, trade Pedro, whatever they can do to get some different players in there. Now I know why people think Red Sox fans don't have it all upstairs.

The ref did that in SYM too. Of course, all you had to do was whack him with it to be able to use the chair on your opponent.

Fair enough, but I think the grapple system is set up like Fire Pro's (if you've ever played it) where you wear down your opponent with weak moves and build up to the stronger ones (Signature are the strongest, I'll bet).

Mine hasn't shipped yet. When did you order yours? I ordered mine last Tuesday (10/21). On my status page, I do have a tracking number, but still an "Open" transaction. Day before you, actually. I'll bet it's shipped by now, or you're going to get it from a different carrier (mine is UPS)

This is my last word on the subject, I swear. And after all that, IGN AND Gamespot STILL gave it a score of 9. My order has left Louisville, KY and is on the road East and then Northeast.

All right, I gotta ask: Has relying on this Billy Beane Moneyball Sabermetric crap actually resulted in winning World Championships? Why not just get some Mana-tron 3000 installed in the dugout that continually spits out stats. *Whirr* Giambi bats .263 against righties at night on odd-numbered days when the moon is in the waxing gibbous phase *click* I, for one, DON'T want a manager that has daily powows with Bill James to determine how the Royals fare against Lowe when the wind is blowing out of the east at 10.43233 MPH with a 20% chance of rain in the forecast.

I'll take the opinions of people who have actually played the damn thing (IGN and Gamespot's reviewers) over yours.

I don't want to sound like some GameFAQ board fanboy, but how can you say a game sucks if you haven't played a second of it? I'll no doubt find things I don't like about the game, but from everything I've seen in the reviews, it is a very solid game from top to bottom. Wait, I just became a hypocrite, didn't I?
