I remember playing EA Sports Triple Play about..what..9 or 10 years ago and there being the fake ads for dumb stuff that got really annoying fast after being really amusing to start off. "LOBSTER COLA!" "RAYS HOUSE OF PENCILS!"

My 2nd favorite pitcher won a game and my favorite pitcher pitches tomorrow night! Yay, hopefully they'll take 2 of 3 from Seattle and catch Oakland at a real bad time and maybe sweep them.. I just had a giddy thought of the possibility that the Os rotation next year could be Bedard/Guthrie/Loewen/Penn/Olson. I honestly think they're going to try and trade Daniel Cabrera and give up on him. Trachsel and Benson will be gone and Wright will probably either be gone or out in the Bullpen.

My Boys, House of Payne and Bill Engvall are shot in HD and will be in HD come september (the reruns anyway). Some later eps of ELR were in HD as well. TBS also just acquired the rights to The Office and My Name is Earl which begin in 2008 on TBS and obviously will be in HD.

The problem is games will be blacked out as usual if they are out of market so that pretty much removes the hd content from them, but they still count. You can also debate the 18 "channels" of NFL/NASCAR but they are exclusive and Directvs going to count them to make their 100..

A.D. is gonna be a bust for the Pats. See: Hartwell, Ed

Does it? I was under the impression that both were just pieces of plastic without any electronic circuitry inside. Toss me a link if it's true. I went back and re-watched the segment of G4's E3 coverage with Reggie talking about the wheel, and I think that the trigger on the backside of the wheel just allows you to use the trigger on the underside of the remote for powerslides. I thought when I first saw it that it was a a completely seperate button, but Im looking at it now and where its placed and I think that its not now..oh well. oops.

HD couldnt save that disaster if it tried.

The last clothes I bought were from Kmart (5 shirts, 2 pairs of pants) for $50. My shoes came from Ross of all places.

CNN's gonna be useless too for the first bit as I dont even think they have hd studios yet, they just wanna be the first HD Cable news network. TBS will have most of their new original shows and Baseball playoffs in HD, and some of their movies but if its stretch-o-vision like TNT then no thanks.

Its probably like the wheel for Mario Kart in that the wheel has an extra button on the underside to use thats not available if you dont use the wheel.

washed up actors beating up never-was actors! news at 11!

anyone buying gab for punk/whatever-his-name-is is stupid

gee..you think?

I bet he gets a discount or he gets free irregulars..

cor von is in the live promo!!!

Johnny Thunder? Johnny Saturday Night? Johnny Main Event? Johnny Pro?

Whats up with Nitro?

I guess if theres a ghostbusters 3 it'd have to be rated r then lol..

Heres a vote for Site Feedback!

Wendy's signature breakfast item will be the Buttermilk Frescuit - a special type of biscuit that features egg, cheese and choice of sausage, hickory-smoked bacon or ham. The frescuit is square and made specifically to hold together and not crumble apart as easily as regular biscuits making it a neater on the go breakfast option. The rest of their breakfast sandwiches will be on kaiser rolls which I find odd.

Maybe Monty Brown is there though..?

Next tuesday will be a conflicted sad/happy day for me... Happy because Im getting the new Directv HD-DVR and 5 LNB that will be capable of recieving Directvs new HD channels come September 15th (the first wave of the supposed 100 HD Channels by the end of the year). Only cost me $99. Sad because its not a Tivo based DVR and Ive grown quite attached to the tivo in the 23 months Ive owned it.. BRING ON THE HD! Channels launching on Directv in September: A&E Animal Planet Big Ten Network CineMax East CineMax West CNN Discovery Channel (simulcast) Food Network HBO West HGTV History Channel MHD (MTV) NFL Network (Full-Time) Science Channel Showtime West Starz! East Starz! West Starz! Edge Starz! Comedy Starz Kids & Family The Movie Channel The National Geographic Channel TBS TLC The Weather Channel Versus/Golf

Saw the bottom of X Play with the $399 40 GB PS3 with no backwards compatibility rumor. Id be all for that since I own no Playstation games and dont care about the Hard Drive. Actually, thats totally a lie. I got Resevoir Dogs 10th Anniversary Edition DVD AND the Resevoir Dogs game for PS2 for $5 on clearance at Wal Mart. I just wanted the DVD though lol, the game supposedly sucked.

I wonder what Nitro's announcement is tonight?

Starbucks locations increased 21% last year over 2005. But Subway increased its locations by almost 10% last year and I think they are actually on pace to pass McDonalds in number of locations by the end of the decade as long as they continue on their same pace.

They should at least put Kane in the Kahli/Batista match and make it a 3 Way Suckfest. Id actually be for Mark Henry winning since his promo made it out as him willing to take on everyone and Id be interested in a sick way in seeing him vs Kahli..
