I agree, the fantasy threads shouldn't be pinned.

For those who aren't aware, Dontrelle Willis is pitching on national TV tonight on ESPN against the Braves. I know a few of you want to watch him pitch (such as Frigid). Hopefully the ERA stays 0.00.

The chart makes it easier to read.

Yeah, Denzel is definitely not the top drawing actor. Not even close. He's not even in the top 100 of all time gross. Here are the grosses from www.the-numbers.com 1 Harrison Ford 33 $3,255,038,801 $98,637,539 2 Samuel L. Jackson 59 $3,031,113,680 $51,374,808 3 Tom Hanks 31 $2,842,166,284 $91,682,783 4 Tom Cruise 27 $2,566,844,575 $95,068,318 5 Eddie Murphy 29 $2,480,021,588 $85,517,986 6 Bruce Willis 43 $2,356,499,883 $54,802,323 7 James Earl Jones 40 $2,343,822,050 $58,595,551 8 Mel Gibson 34 $2,300,893,723 $67,673,345 9 Jim Cummings 26 $2,253,349,139 $86,667,275 10 Gene Hackman 59 $2,246,177,460 $38,070,804 11 Robin Williams 41 $2,230,250,633 $54,396,357 129 Denzel Washington 32 $1,147,305,027 $35,853,282 As you can see, Denzel is nowhere near these people in total gross and only compares to Gene Hackman in per movie gross. He's made 1 more movie than Tom Hanks and 5 more than Tom Cruise and still trails both by almost $2 billion in revenue. He's got a lot of catching up to do. And per picture average? Forget about it. He'd need to make about 5 movies in a row that generated Titanic type money to even approach Hanks, Cruise, Harrison Ford.

I have it. I like Falls on Me, Million Miles, Most of All, and Die Like This. You'll get no arguement from me that this is their worst album, but still a few good songs. Yet, no Shimmer.

Choken One was saying something last week?

See ya Wednesday.

How about you try that one more time... in English.

So I'm settled in last night for Braves/Marlins baseball on TBS. Three minutes to opening pitch. Cable goes out, internet goes with it. Damn! I got some dinner and scrambled over my girlfriends to see the Marlins already down 6-0. Beckett got hammered again. I guess the Braves can dominate the Marlins like the Marlins dominate the Phillies. We'll see if it can be turned around today. If not, D-Train goes tomorrow on sunday night baseball on ESPN.

He never even swung the bat. Even with the Padres up like 10-0. As for the pitch, it wasn't super duper close, but it was close enough. Especially when it's the very next pitch after a homerun.

Sweep number two. Phils made it interesting, yet fail again.

Here's what you missed. Mike Redmond hits a homerun in the top of the 2nd. VERY NEXT PITCH, Brett Myers threw right at Gonzalez's head. Pratt turns around to give and gets a little aggressive with Gonzalez so Gonzalez slaps the glove away. Then Prett pushes Gonzalez and Alex went in for the fight and put up his dukes. Both dugouts cleared and someone tackled someone else. Now Pratt AND Gonzalez are booted.

As it should have been. Fuck Brett Myers. That's bushleague. He threw it RIGHT at his head. Now, Todd Pratt is ejected and for good reason.

Has there ever been a not frustrating time?

I liked South Park at first, but i thought it got old fast. The only part I think I really enjoyed was Michael chasing after his son when he pulled his nose off saying "that's ignorant, you're ignorant." Chapelle Show on tuesday? Not sure how I feel about that.

Was there ever any doubt that was forged? Although he's got you by the balls there.

Right, those are park specific rules. I think the announcers got it wrong. The rules of the game at every level I've played (up until high school and club college; fyi for Al Keiper, I hit a 3 run HR out of Lackawanna County Stadium in district playoffs of highschool) are that if the ball is stuck under the fence it's an automatic ground rule double. Here's why: say Conine tried to get it out and the ball is stuck. Even a split second of struggle could lead to an extra base. That's the reason why that's the rule. I don't think the "park rules" matter in this situation.

Saw the play on Sportscenter. There isn't a chance in hell of that being overturned. That is Conine being a veteran to perfection and he was 100% correct. Might suck for the Phillies, but that was definitely stuck under the fence and a ground rule double.

Game over, Marlins win.

Well, Marlins take the lead.

Well, if 12 years of playing baseball taught me anything then a ball dislodged under the fence is an automatic ground rule double, but hey maybe that doesn't stretch as far as the majors. Whether Conine tried or not, the ball officially left the field of play. Of course I didn't see it, but that's going on my baseball playing experience. It doesn't sound like a sure overturn.

To extra innings we go.

Well, what exactly would change? They can't reverse the results of the game, can they?

Does playing a game under protest ever make a difference?

I would give a pinky to be able to watch this game now.
