  1. Another interesting quiz on there is naming Top 5 home run hitters for every year since 1970. Rick Monday anyone? Ron Kittle? http://www.sporcle.com/games/bennyboy44/top5hrhitters Dammit I have to step away from that site. Geography had me hooked for an entire day.

    well, that's not exactly true. it's not not going to cure your cancer and let's not forget that this is essentially a human rights issue, since we're imprisoning millions of people for these ridiculous laws and spending quite a fortune to do so just to play devil's advocate, if you suddenly emptied the prisons of petty drug offenders, the unemployment problems would be even more unmanageable than it is now They said they same thing when they were debating abolishing slavery. I know that is an extreme example but the principle is the same.
  3. 182 My bad misses:
  4. This is why Vogelbach tweeted he was going to Arizona. It all makes sense now.
  5. I guess this would be a good spot to post this, but I have wasted multiple hours at this trivia site. The link below is to one game where you name the Cubs opening day line-ups since 1991. It's great for nerds like me who remember Candy Maldonado in left field. There are thousand of other games like naming the Top 5 HR hitters every year since 1970, to state capitals to most #1 hits on Billboard. It's free. Enter at your own risk. http://www.sporcle.com/games/htimsetan/cubs_opening_day_lineups
  6. Well only if they beat Seattle in a few weeks True, but it's in their hands still. Some things evident after the Saints game: The O-line is atrocious. Brown, Grubbs, De le Puente...blech. Malcolm Jenkins needs to get healthy in a hurry. He really makes up for some of the LB play in the run game and it showed today. Carolina is one game back and they have a team much like the Jets, only with a good QB. And we play them twice still.
  7. Effing Bucs is right. What's going on with the Seahawks defense? Are they just having a midseason lapse or have teams seen a way to move the ball on them? Even after Seattle won today, the Saints still control their own destiny for home field.
  8. In a terrible, terrible game for the Saints, that may be the worst play call Sean Payton has ever made. Third and inches and he runs a quick out pattern to the full back, then on 4th down a TE reverse with a guy who was on the practice squad a few weeks ago. EDIT: Is full back without a space really censored?
  9. http://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/content/Image/12-22-2009/Chip-Caray.jpg Chip would have the leadoff hitter get on then waste 2 outs getting him to 3b, just to orgasm over a 2 out rbi. Especially if it were A LASER TO CENTERFIELD!
  10. Those are the same people who think a 3 run home run is a rally killer because the pitcher can relax without all those men on base. http://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/content/Image/12-22-2009/Chip-Caray.jpg
  11. Every game is full of cringe worthy observations from old Timmy. Last week he said, "A walk is as good as a home run."
  12. After reading that article, I'm sold.
  13. Wow. Just scanning that Twitter and they've tossed out slurs for Asians, black people, Hispanics and made fun of Lester for his cancer. Real America right there. Oh, and World Series MVP Freese should commit suicide. What human garbage.
  14. MY GOD. Will the Cardinals ever stop whining? The names may change, but whining will never end.
  15. Hey now! Brett Favre takes exception to that comment!!!! (About back-woods hicks) Every day I drive past Archie and Olivia Manning's house where the boys all grew up. If that's backwoods, I'll take it. I guess it's the Southern accent=hick thing. Got it.

    You don't think that the pharmaceutical lobby wants to keep it illegal because of it's easy availability without their involvement/profits? Any hippie can grow marijuana plants. yeah, but that's not exactly a conspiracy, it's just rich and powerful people trying to stay rich and powerful. smoking weed isn't going to cure your cancer and there's not some shadowy organization determined to let people die of cancer so they can keep selling advil Yeah, I do realize that it's CNN and Sanjay Gupta, but that documentary showed examples of cases similar to what I've read in articles recently. It does seem to have genuine medicinal value in cases of Parkinsons, epilepsy and just general quality of life during chemo.
  17. Meph, please. I always pictured him looking like Stephen Root in Trailer Bark Boys. It made him funnier.

    It's like the couple I knew that got married on a Thursday because it was 4-20. Or the people who always buy these expensive sneakers because they're made out of hemp. I have smoked my share of weed in my day, but Jeebus, it's a [expletive] plant that grows in the ground. Get a life already.

  21. I remember screaming at the TV over some of the decisions he made during the playoffs, not to mention the way they gave Kershaw the Dusty treatment.
  22. The last year of the BCS is going to be the biggest cluster [expletive] of them all. There may be 3 bowl games with an undefeated team this year. Baylor isn't losing probably. Florida St isn't going to lose to Miami or Florida.
  23. That's not at all where I thought that story was going when you said that Boston and St Louis fans were getting a white sheet.
  24. Why lol @ him? . Did you not watch the last two plays? That's about all of his performance I did see, and it was pretty funny. Must...not...defend...Johnny Football.
