I'm with both Al and Slayer here. I can't drink regular soda. Only diet. Once you drink diet for long enough, regular tastes disgusting. And Pepsi makes a much better lime than Coke. I thought Coke with Lime was awful. Coke definitely does Vanilla better than Pepsi, though. IMO.

Pepsi Lime is great. I've been picking up a few 12 packs of that lately.

Article It's from a book about sports agents, but the article is mostly about Dontrelle. I found it very entertaining and I never truly realized just how bad the crash truly was. Worth checking out.

Well, the less publicized draft is well underway - now into the supplemental first rounders. In no surprise at all, the top two were Justin Upton (BJ's younger brother) to the D-Backs at number one and Nebraska superstar Alex Gordon to the Royals at number two. The Marlins had three first rounders and two supplemental firsts and to this point have drafted 4 pitchers (3 of them HS)...not sure how I feel about that as only their first pick, Chris Volstad, was very highly touted. How did your team do?

Guess I'm in the minority. Thought it was pretty lackluster. The best parts to me were the two people dousing themselves in gas and lighting themselves on fire at the sight of Meg.

Picked a good week to go away for a bit. 1-6 against the Pirates and Nationals? Go Marlins.

It may be your first post, but if you've been here awhile (before Dames accidentally erased everything)... it will just be the oldest you can find. Here's mine.. He was traded to the Marlins two weeks later. Ha. EDIT: DAMN Topic typos!

You've gone so far from the path that's been thread that half of it has to be your imagination.

Well, if things hold to form...Britney Spears next husband? Ferderline was just one of her dancers.

Me too. On mute. As for the show... I agree with most of what has been said. But I still would have rather Bo actually won.

Wait, are we still thinking that it's a "monster"? When Locke was being dragged away, I heard pretty clear mechanical noises. As if it's a giant machine. That's how I'll be seeing it from here on out until it's shown to be something else.

imdb.com Maybe there's hope after all.

Or more importantly...what Kate did to her mother to make her freak out at the mere sight of her. It's gotta be pretty bad when your own mother starts screaming HELP ME at the mere sight of you.

Has anyone been watching this show? It's great for a lot of reasons. 1) The boxing aspect 2) The people on this reality show aren't just doing it because they want to be on TV. They never got a real shot and this is it. 3) Sly Stallone is hilarious. Ditto Sugar Ray. He reads his parts with no care at all - probably knowing he can redub them later in the studio. The best fight so far has been Anthony Bansante vs. Jessie Brinkley. Bansante was winning the entire fight. It came down to the final round and everyone knew Brinkley needed a knockout to win. Sure enough, with 30 seconds left, Brinkley knocked him out. It was even sweeter in my eyes, because Bansante was the most annoying fighter on the show. He managed to tie everything in to being a good father, even when it was a total stretch to do so. I wanted to see him knocked out. Anyway, tonight is the last taped episode, and the LIVE two hour fight for the championship and 1 million dollars is Tuesday. Peter Manfredo Jr. (the overall favorite, I think) has already earned his spot for Tuesday. It's Brinkley vs. Sergio Mora tonight to see who fights Tuesday. Anybody else watching this? It's one of my favorite shows this TV season.

To be honest...at this point it doesn't matter. As long as you're in the final two, you'll get an album. And if you're lucky like Clay Aiken, you'll be more famous than the winner. So many people just assume Clay won because he is so much more famous and sold so many more albums than Reuben.

I turned it off after Chris Rock, but you may still be able to catch Evangeline Lilly on Conan, right about now.

Yeah, Bo KILLED Carrie in the song they both sang. His version blew hers out of the water. Carrie's original song was MUCH better than Bo's. Not his fault. The problem with Carrie is that she is too similar to Kelly Clarkson. Sure, she has the country aspect, but they could essentially release the same album. I managed to log seven successful votes for Bo while I was watching the show. That's the good thing about DVR...can vote while you watch.

Round 5 was the best by far... Sergio stopped to trash talk the Manfredo corner and they had to put the mute button on to block out Manfredo's wife from cursing. I don't know what happened. It wasn't even close...Sergio pounded him. GOOD.

I'm sorry Phillies fans. The moment that made my night probably slightly dampened yours.

Does anyone else find it ironic that the topic starter is named Charles Bronson? The real Charles Bronson would murder you and your entire family for this.

southflorida sun sentinel Uh uh. And the same paper has an article about Burnett. He claims that he thinks it's a bone spur, that's it's not serious, and that he will only miss one start. I'm not sure I'm that optimistic myself, but it's encouraging at the very least.

Wasn't me.

Hey... if that's all it takes. I'm Miguel Cabrera's cabana boy! But that's a full time job.

Ok, this made me laugh.
