EVIL~! alkeiper

Probably the 1994 MLB All-Star game. I'll let the question carry.

I'm not certain. Honky owns his own gimmick, and the ability to work it on the indy circuit is a big deal.

A person's death on that level (being Franchise's sister) has no real effect on me. But it really is a terrible thing to go through as a family member, and I couldn't possibly see saying something callous just to look cool on a message board. It's downright cold. Since this is a different thread though, I'd like to point out that if I ever get terminal cancer, I want my obituary to say I went out whimpering like a baby. None of this "lost his brave fight with cancer" nonsense you see in everybody else's obits.

I agree. There were a couple of spots in the Rumble where the camera seemed to miss something they never would've before.

Once Ichiro plays ten years, he will have met the playing time requirement and have established a Hall of Fame peak. Here's a list of players ranked by batting average from ages 27 to 33, spanning Ichiro's career. http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/shareit/myxN Ichiro Suzuki, Todd Helton, 22 Hall of Famers, and some guy named Jack Tobin in the top 25. Not bad company at all. The only argument against Ichiro will be the lack of career counting stats, and that's not really enough to keep someone out on its own.

I'd love to see them try and run Giants Stadium (or maybe Lincoln Financial Field) for a Summerslam one of these years.

There is certainly no fooling him, is there?

Jack Dempsey vs. Harry Wills, circa 1926. Dempsey refused to cross the color line, and the NYSBC refused to sanction any other World championship bout. That's why Dempsey-Tunney I occurred in Philadelphia. Anyone else with a good answer?

That commentary was fun, since the writers or whoever were so defensive about the concept. They really spent the 1st half utterly whining about how people trash the episode.

Orioles' depth chart has Jamie Walker, Dennis Sarfate (acquired from Houston), Chad Bradford, George Sherrill, Brian Burres, Jim Hoey, and Jon Leicester. Rocky Cherry and Radhames Liz would be in competition for relief jobs as well.

Looking over his gamelogs, his first two seasons do not add up to a full year in the Majors. In three years he will have about a month's short of six years service time. Close to six years, but it has to be over six.

I own both Fire Pro and SvR 2007. The WWE game really lost its appeal after I completed the challenges. Fire Pro is still a lot of fun, and I've had it nearly two months now.

Hit [square], and select "done." Also, remember if you hit "quick save," you need to save the full game file as well before turning off your PS2.

Believe me when I tell you Baltimore has a VERY pressing need for relief pitching. Remember Sherrill doesn't reach free agency for four years yet as well.

Looks like the trade is official. Eric Bedard for Adam Jones, George Sherrill, Anthony Butler, Chris Tillman and Kameron Mickolio. Tillman is the M's #3 prospect, Jones would be a top ten overall prospect if eligible. This is obviously a great trade for the Orioles. I don't think it's bad from the Mariners' perspective either. They still have Ichiro locked up in center field. In right field Wladimir Balentien is not an elite prospect, but he is young, improving and productive at every level. Felix Hernandez and Eric Bedard may now be the best 1-2 punch in baseball.

Around my region, Wawa is the shit. I wish they had one on the route to Scranton.

Negligent from a legal standpoint. If I am injured at work, it is my responsibility to inform my supervisor. That's not my opinion, it's legalese. Those are all true. You are correct in that we really would not know the specifics until a lawsuit is filed. One additional thing here. At least when I discuss the issue, I try to remain civil. I don't want to insult another person. I hope others keep that in mind.

PECOTA doesn't envision Lester or Buchholz cracking 130 IP this season (both with ERAs over 4.00). Even with their respective pedigrees, the transition to major league batters will not be easy. Combine that with Wakefield being concerned about his creaky shoulder and this team is suddenly looking at filling 200 or 300 innings. This could quickly end up like 2006 instead of 2007. Can a projection system honestly predict innings pitched? Especially with Lester's missed time being due to a non-baseball ailment.

Honestly, I really don't have an opinion on Benoit himself. When I respond to something like Michael Benoit's lawsuit, I'm just giving an honest evaluation on the merits based on my background in Political Science, for whatever that's worth.

Ok. Point out something I've said unreasonable.

When the thread first got to around 100 pages some poster said that it had to be the longest thread in TSM history because he couldn't remember one ever getting to 100 pages. The funny thing was there were about a half dozen other active topics on the board that were well over that many pages. This meshes with my theory that most of the posters in that folder have no idea that the rest of the board exists. You can actually sort the board by most replied topics, so anyone can see where it ranks. Surprisingly, it is indeed second in that folder trailing only the original CTDWAT meta-thread.

You know, that wrestling apologist bingo crap was cute the first time at PWO. It's infuriating though when you make reasoned points and someone groups them with 15 other legitimately idiotic things they've heard. I could develop the opposite bingo card with phrases like, "how many more seven year olds have to die," but that is a pretty childish way to form an argument.

Louisville, Kentucky is almost smack in the middle of the Ohio river basin (sometimes known as the Ohio Valley). It has nothing to do with the state of Ohio really. Exactly. The Ohio Valley is different from the state of Ohio.

Ladies and gentleman, meet the genius behind Ken Tremendous. http://imdb.com/name/nm1321658/

Understand I'm not trying to make a stringent argument, just giving a legal opinion. Unless Michael Benoit can develop something specific in the lawsuit, I doubt it has legs.
