Sheesh. The game has been out like a year or so now. At this rate, by the time he actually gets the money for it, I don't think anyone will be playing it anymore.

Well, look at real sports, the referee will make an entirely correct call, and there will be an OUTRAGE by the fans because of it. It may be the correct call, but if it screws their team, the fans will be pissed, and, in some cases, bitch and moan about it even years later. I am not sure if that's what they were going for, but it's a pretty good way to get heat from what I have seen at sporting events.

Wow. 16 pages of "morons." And, hey, I was able to get in 80 posts before they banned me originally. Awesome.

I am not surprised that Around the World in 80 Days bombed. Afterall, wasn't the original version most famous for being a movie that the studios wanted to be a HUGE bomb, but ended up being successful because of the large amount of cameo appearances in the film or something? And how much is Shrek 2 on pace to make anyway?

I remember once a friend of mine ordered a chicken sandwich from there, and it was raw. Ever since then, I have been apprehensive about ordering anything other than fries from there.

6) Rock? I think I vaguely remember him doing a move like that.

6) Also known as a Inverted STF, what Current WWE Wrestler could have been seen in 2000 and beyond using this type of leg and neck hold With a Bridge. Jericho? 4) The First Samoan Drop executed (But not called as such) at a WM was done by who? I'll say Andre the Giant.

I have to seriously wonder about trading in this game. It all started when the Blue Jays were trying to trade Carlos Delgado. Needing a first baseman, I figured I'd make an honest attempt of getting him. I pitched SEVERAL idea to Jays for him in various deals centring around Shawn Green(since he is the only expendable player on my team with a large enough contract to make the deal work financially.) I throw everything at them from players to prospects and each time I get a resounding "No." I even traded them Paul Lo Duca(who they wouldn't take as part of the Delgado deal) for two promising prospects in a side deal to allow more financial flexibility on my side. Eventually, I give up and trade basically not much for Craig Wilson, thus, basically settling my first base problem. They make the trade with Chicago for Sammy Sosa. Fast forward to a few games later where they put Sammy on the trading block. I figure I might as well see if I can get something done. At this time I was having a bit of a disagreement with the game over who should be my starting 1B. I wanted Wilson, while every time I'd have the CPU optimize my rosters, it would choose Andreas Gallaraga(sp?). Anyway, I figured I'd just throw a deal out there to see if it would work as I did Shawn Green and Gallaraga for Sammy Sosa. To my shock, they approve the deal. It just confuses me that, when trading for Delgado, they reject a number of deals revolving around everything from young players on my roster to promising projects, yet jump at the chance to grab a 40some year old 1B who I can't imagine having too many years left after this season. I figure it could be some odd "win now" philosophy, but, still, why dump Delgado then turn around and dump Sosa if your object is winning? Basically, at the end, in the deal for Delgado, they gave up him and two prospects for, like, 3 games of Sammy Sosa, Andreas Gallaraga, Shawn Green, and Paul Lo Duca. Am I wrong in thinking the Jays screwed themselves?

Wasn't that something that went all the way back to Rantsylvania? I could swear that it was a running joke started by Sean Shannon as a choice for the polls on that site.

I'd have to agree with Kotz. That's the big pic we've been waiting a week for? Who is that guy anyway? I'd assume by the picture title, he has something to do with basketball, but I don't recognize him.

Well, I didn't see this thread, so I'll put what I said in the other thread here: I'd have to agree with Al here. I feel for more noteworthy stuff that would get a decent number of replies, it shouldn't be restricted to an OAO. I do think a OAO type thread for more minor stuff like smaller signings, re-signings that are practically foregone conlusions, and minor trades would be useful because it might not get more than a few replies otherwise. Notable stuff should gets its own topic, but I think an OAO type thread for more of the minor stuff would be useful, and would eliminate some of the clutter that might get 3 or 4 replies. For instance, the Phil gets fired thread should gets its own thread, while, something like "Martin Gerber gets traded to the Carolina Hurricanes for a prospect and a pick" would probably be better off in the hypothetical OAO thread.

I am quite happy to see the Lakers falling apart at the seams. It's hard to imagine that just a few weeks ago, they were unstoppable, now they are rapidly destructing. Hopefully, they won't suck too horribly next season. I hope Phil enjoys his retirement or whatever else he plans on doing next season.

I am getting the red x here.

That EA sports profile or whatever it is. I just hate it when I play a game, and it comes up, "You are a level 27 EA Gamer! Would you to save?" or "There are new accomplishments added to your EA Sprots profile!" That just annoys the fuck out of me, for some reason.

It's looking impressive. For $20, this will be a definite must buy. The part that makes me happiest? It has none of that EA Gamer bullshit that I run into whenever I buy an EA game.

Maybe, Trish will end up costing Lita the baby during the match, and it will lead to the Tomko/Kane feud they seemed to be teasing a few weeks ago.

I'd assume rugby or something of the sort.

I remember I used to get something like this awhile back. It used to be for some internet dating service, and I would usually just click out of it. After awhile, I guess they figured out I wasn't clicking, so it suddenly turned into a gay internet dating service. I eventually dumped it with a spyware detector.

Yep.

It's going to be wasted by creating such great threads as What's the Deal With Airline Food?, of course.

I said helped because it seemed to be more interesting than whatever else was going in HD before it happened. Plus, I was off doing other things yesterday, so I missed the debacle that finished it.

What level do you play on Foozel? I play it on Medium, as long as I am feeling up to it, I usually don't have too much problems winning. My suggestions: -make use of slapshots if you have the guys to do so. My top line of Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St. Lous, and Pavel Demitra can just kill teams using this method. - use quick plays(I think that's what they're called.) I like to go aggressive on offense and use the puck side attack on defense. These can usually help you coordinate your team. One problem I noticed almost immediately was that I was doing one thing while the rest of my team was doing the exact opposite. - take your time. One of the biggest problems I had when I switched to medium level was that I ran at such a brutally fast pace that I often gave the computer a lot of unneccessary, and good shots. Once I slowed down the pace and took control, the game became way easier. - also, if you're playing a dynasty, look for bargains. Draft picks are fairly useless in this game at the beginning. Pretty good players with tons of potential can be had for cheap because the game is a nimrod. I usually try to get Barret Jackman(I got him for a 3rd and 4th), Stephen Weiss (2 4ths), and Pavel Demitra(A 1st or part of trade with Jackman and Jamal Mayers for a 2nd, a 4th, and Andreas Johannsen, as I wondered what the heck the game was smoking to propose THAT one.) Anyway, it is not THAT hard when once you get some practice and the hang of it. The only frustrating part for me anymore is having to deal with the idiotic computer getting 2 stars because their goalie stopped 44 shots(and gave up 6 goals), while some forward who scored a goal long after I stopped giving a shit is somehow magically more worthy of a star than my entire who had the wonderful ability to score BEFORE my team was down 5-0. It just puzzles me why they are even remotely deserving of anything after my team steamrolled them.

3) He came to the ring in the WWF Dressed like an Animal. before pulling off the costume to wrestle. Mantaur? 5) This wrestler career spans the Indis a notorious WWF career going heel to face back to heel again, to the indis and finally landing in WCW where he became a trainer...
