6. He goes out. Gets drunk. Comes back. Lays in bed sobbing that he wants to kill himself and there's nothing you can do to stop him. You try ignoring him by turning up the volume on the television but unfortunately, he raises his voice too just to fully establish the point you can't stop him, even if you wanted to.

I'm not saying I don't want to see her back. She's very entertaining. But she still has a toxic effect on the board, and it would only be a matter of weeks before people began calling for another ban.

Well no. As interesting as she may be, Leena is what we like to refer to as an all-around cunt.

You know, I want to finally say this. Jericholic82, I don't like you. I don't like that you have the Firedog logo from Circuit City in his avatar. I especially do not like that in 80% of your posts, you feel the need to brag that you work in Circuit City. Jericholic, I worked there too. It was nothing to brag about. In fact, for the year I was there, I was embarrassed at having to wear that red shirt and pretend I cared whether or not customers were able to find a Wii. I think I may have mentioned it here a grand total of once....maybe even twice. You write about it though as if this is the pinnacle of your career. You're making sure to represent this chain in every post with your avatar despite the fact that they may be months away from declaring bankruptcy and going out of business. Do me a favor. Stop talking about Circuit City. Stop gloating about how you get the first crack at the latest WWE PPV on DVD before anybody else. You may be the Alpha Male of your local store, racking up Protection Plans and Installation Services like they were going out of style, but I don't want to read about it anymore. Oh, believe me. Once I become TSM Poster of the Year 2007, I will put an end to Jericholic's reign of terror.

I am a hero. I'm moving for change. CWM is part of the old establishment. Fuck him. And Jingus is a tool, so fuck him too. PK, play your cards right, and you could be looking at a VP spot once I win the tourney.

I always thought Paul McCartney looked like an old lesbian too. I really dislike Mitt Romney. He just seems like such a phony talking about his family values and his "I've cursed but I've never, ever used the evil curse words" thing too. It feels like he's never telling the truth in his speeches, and I can't respect a candidate like that, regardless of where he stands on certain issues.

Yes! Good god, that was frustrating.

And if they do that, the movie will bomb. The draw of this movie now is finally discovering what the monster looks like. If you take that out of the equation, there is no draw. I've been concerned for some time that this is the angle Abrams is going for.

BERLIN (AP) - Actor Johnny Depp likened the United States to a "dumb puppy that has big teeth" in an interview published Wednesday, ridiculing Washington's confrontation with France, where he lives, over the war in Iraq. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" star - who spends much of his time in the south of France with his companion, Vanessa Paradis, and their two children - told the German magazine Stern he couldn't see himself paying more than short visits to his Los Angeles residence in the present political climate. "America is dumb, is something like a dumb puppy that has big teeth - that can bite and hurt you, aggressive," Depp was quoted as saying. Depp recalled that French fries were renamed "Freedom fries" in the House cafeteria on Capitol Hill at the height of U.S. anger over France's refusal to back the administration of President Bush over the war in Iraq. "Nothing made me happier than when I read that - grown men and grown women in positions of power in the United States government," Depp said. "I was ecstatic because they revealed themselves as idiots." Depp said he wanted his two children, ages 1 and 4, to experience the United States "like it's a kind a toy - a broken toy maybe. Investigate a little bit, check it out, get this feeling and then get out." AP-ES-09-03-03 1323EDT ------------------------------------------------- What an asshole. While the guy does have the freedom to express what he thinks, you don't say such a thing if America's one of the places you hope to make a major living. He's just making every American that has supported him and his movies look pathetic. Things like this just make me sick. If you don't like the country, and have things like that to say about it, then just stay out and don't come back. I'm by no stretch the most patriotic American, but I consider it an insult that he's making millions while I'm struggling to get enough money for food on the table. Personally, I can't wait until the douchebag's career starts dying in America. Then, nobody will give a fuck WHAT the guy has to say. -Well, those are my thoughts. Yours ?

Seems I was an idealist four years ago. Amazing how things change. Johnny Depp can say whatever he wants now.

Yeesh, I started this thread? Not my finest moment.

Because nobody goes to see the Marlins, A's, and Rays, so why bother spending money on a building for 60,000+ people when you're hardly going to fill a fifth of that on a good day? No matter how successful the team gets, they're never going to consistently sustain that support. Just look at the Marlins, That would apply more to the Marlins and Rays to be honest, but it's not like the Coliseum has come close to collapsing from the swarms of Oakland fans either.

Wow, Jingus looks really desperate to be on good terms with a girl on a wrestling messageboard. Good luck with that. Maybe you two could meet at a bar sometime for some Cough Medicine Martinis.

For some reason, I expect to see Cliff Floyd on that list. The chronic foot problems have always been something that have drawn up a red flag for me.

Oh wow...tad melodramatic, aren't we? I would just love to see Derek Jeter on the list. He won't be but it'd be an early Christmas present for sure.

Well, as we all know, if the Twins don't agree to the deal today, the Yankees will never, ever, ever negotiate with Minnesota over Johan Santana again. So the Hughes-issue should be moot since this Yankee-Twins arrangement will absolutely go no longer than 11:59pm tonight.

Yikes, that Ryechnaia dialogue is so long. I don't know if conversations between baseball GMs even go that long.

I've always been a fan of Minaya's work but this offseason has been horrid for him so far. Milledge was trade bait -- perhaps not as valuable as he was two years ago but an outfielder that still required a higher price than Church and Schneider! I assume this effectively places them out of any dealings for Johan Santana....hell, it would place them out of any dealings for an above average starter, period. They don't have anybody else left to trade! If the Mets don't make the playoffs in 2008, Minaya needs to go. Now we have three catchers, none of which can match Paul Lo Duca who was never impressive in the first place. We lost a valuable utility outfielder. And oh yeah, we still lack an ace. At this rate, the Mets will be struggling to compete for third place in the division.

I hope all this talk in the New York newspapers about Jose Reyes being trade bait for Johan Santana is just talk. It would be a critical mistake for the Mets to consider that -- along the lines of trading Tom Seaver. Reyes was the catalyst for that team in the first half of the 2007 season. He has limitless potential....and it's not like they even have anybody to replace him anyway. I can't see Minaya doing it because even he has to realize the possible disaster it could turn into, but I'm uneasy about all the talk either way.

Didn't sign up but if I did, I would forget to use your name anyway Marvin. Whoops!

....that white guy that Dwight was playing against at the end? No. No, that was not Daryl. It was cousin Mose, I believe. But definitely not Daryl.

...there's no meat in there? Pass.

Yeah, Minaya will soon be out of a job if that's his starting rotation come April.
