Anyone with a brain could see a backlash coming, which is why firing the guy was so fucking stupid. I can't believe that only now they're second guessing the move, which had PR nightmare written all over it. And I hope the fans never let off Lita, because I can't stand her as a face. Turn her heel and pair her with Edge, end the awful neverending Kane storyline, make lemonade. Plus, turn Trish into an edgy face, because the fans obviously prefer to cheer her. I wouldn't bring Matt back if I were Vince though, and if I were Matt I wouldn't go back, at least not before giving TNA a shot. What's done is done, I honestly think the release was a blessing in disguise for him. Unless all partys would be willing to run an Edge/Matt program, which I don't see happening, it would be beyond pointless.

I wonder if Vince will give him a mention on RAW? Probably not. I also wonder if TNA will address his death on tommorow's Impact? Again, probably not, unless they scrap the Naturals/AMW match....

Not sure this belongs here, but DAMN, I did not see that coming. Probably OD'd on painkillers. How old was he?

They should make an angle out of it with Matt Morgan, just pretend the chants are about him.....

Why? All-time leader in assists and steals, great shooter, great defender, and the best all-around pure point I've ever seen. Kareem gets overrated because of the points, dude played forever, he isn't even the best center on the list, and I'm not going to bump all the big men up just because their size gives them numbers. I figured ranking Hakeem ahead of Abdul Jabbar would be more controversial.

Well yeah, but don't hold that against Butler, hold it against Kobe and the Lakers front office for driving Shaq away. Butler's a defender first, that's why he got drafted and his claim to fame, emotional like you said, and his offense does feed off his defense and emotion. He's a hell of a role player though, a super sized Bruce Bowen, and the Lakers knew what they were getting. The only way I'd label him a disapointment would be if he shot -40% and couldn't guard anyone.

Knicks losing the 94 Finals to Houston, that hurt, I really thought we had a championship team from 92-94 and that was our shot with MJ retired. The Yankees complete meltdown last year is close, but the disapointment is cushioned by the 4 championships I've been fortunate enough to witness. The Knicks are 30 years without one, and at this rate won't be cutting down the nets anytime soon.

Why? His numbers improved off 03-04, he shot .445%, a career best by far, 15.5 pts per game, one and a half steals, and a great ft%. Plus, he did this as basically the 3rd or 4th wheel. I don't have the stats off-hand, but when Kobe and/or Odom were out Butler stepped up his game big time. Where's the disapointment? What the hell were you expecting from the kid? My top 10 (excluding active players): 1. Air Jordan 2. Larry Bird 3. Magic Johnson 4. Wilt Chamberlain 5. Bill Russell 6. Oscar Robertson 7. John Stockton 8. Hakeem Olajuwon 9. Kareem Abdul Jabbar 10. Jerry West on the cusp: Moses, Elgin Baylor, Isiah Thomas

Jeff. Van. Gundy. Plus, did you see T-Mac w/ Magic and Chuck the other night? Dude is hungry, no way he lets up now, and if he does he's a damn fool cause he had two hall of famers telling him NOT to let that shit happen

HAHAHA, YES! I figured out how to do it literally seconds before you posted that. Thanks for the help!

I recently dowloaded a torrent file, supposedly of a film, and what I've got from it is a .bin file. As far as I can tell it's some sort of executable file, a type of archive I would assume, but I have no fucking clue how to extract from it or what program to use. I'm on Windows XP, any help would be greatly appreciated

Ok, I downloaded Daemon Tools, created the virtual drive and mounted the .cue file, and it opens a window, browsing the files of the virtual drive I created. It contains a couple folders, and I've isolated the movie file (judging by the size), which is a .dat file, but I'm still unable to play it. Am I doing something wrong, or just missing the next step?

I was thinking Houston in 6 before the series. But after losing 2 at home, Dallas might not even make it to a game 6. I understand the love for Dallas, they had a good year, but they ended up with the WORST possible matchup having to play Houston in the first round. They would have been better off against pretty much every other team in the West, especially Seattle or Sacramento, even San Antonio or Phoenix would have been a better match. I couldn't believe people were picking them to beat Houston, and F'n Kenny Smith picked em to make the Finals

Agreed. It would look better with blue tracing on the # and stripes

Is there anything that actively connects this guy to terrorism or proof that he was funding it, like a paper trail or something? He was involved with Kurdish freedom fighters in the 80's, as was probably every Kurdish man of fighting age at that time, but nothing I've read provides evidence that he's still involved in anything. They're holding one incident from 20 years ago against the guy. We've got all kinds of mercenarys and even a couple ex-terrorists contracted in the middle east, Bush gets off the hook on everything he did as a kid, that's some crazy hypocrisy to hold this dude's past against him.

Lieber's a national league pitcher, and besides the Yankees picked up the 17th overall pick in the draft...they lost their own first round choice. But, they do need to consider rebuilding their farm system. Which sounds good, but we'll just turn around and move whoever we draft, looking for another quick fix. I've been saying since day 1 that letting Lieber walk was a mistake, were Steinbrenner and Cashman even watching the playoffs?

You guys know they're just looking for someone who's worked on network/cable sitcoms and shit again, right? Not to be a dick, but I doubt anyone here is qualified, and if you are, your sitcoms suck!

Yeah, he was. Horrible call. Mets win! 6 in a row! GO WILLIE!

What did Milton Bradley do to get suspended last season? It came up on PTI and Wilbon said he shouldn't have been suspended, but I can't remember what he did....

Carlito is a drug cartel gatster? I thought he was an arrogant dude from the Carribean with a fruit fetish....

Oh, and as for the beer that got "dumped" on Sheff, that looked accidental, the guy who was holding it got bumped from behind and looked bummed about it

HIS HEAD IS AN APPLE! AWESOME! :worship: Why it's the best? -Doesn't say "Carlito Cool" or "WWE" at all -retro lettering -old style sports logo. The afro'd apple looks like one of those rediculous sports mascots like the bannana slug or something a minor league ballclub would have -blue/red color scheme That's the only shirt that has cache. The screen print one is really cheesy, and the yellow ones are just horrid.
