  1. What type of music do you like? It's a serious question; I'm not trying to be a jerk. I just remember a lot of "I hate X" or "X sucks" posts (some of which I've agreed with). Maybe I'm just not remembering the "I love X with all my heart" posts. I enjoy all varieties -- I don't think there's a genre I "dislike". I believe the only bands in this competition that I hate (so far) are AC/DC and Jane's Addiction. I am not necessarily a fan of bands like the Beatles or Stones or any of the "weed rock" bands, but I recognize and appreciate their contributions to music as well as the talent that they had.
  2. I hate Jane's Addiction with every fiber of my being.
  3. Well Jimmy moved in with his mother Cuz he ain't got no place to go And now I'm right back in the gutter With a garbage bag that's full of clothes Cuz you livin' home in a trailer What the hell you gonna do? Yehaw I live at home in a trailer Mom, I'm comin' home to you
  4. Okay, sign Vlad Guerrero the next time he's a free agent. And keep Nomar.
  5. Not a Doors fan, but sure like them better than Sonic Youth.
  6. He was terrific in April. He was HORRIBLE in May and June. He hasn't been so hot in July so far.
  7. And sadly, what they did spend was not spent wisely.
  8. He wasn't good defensively either.
  9. Bilk- 1. To defraud, cheat, or swindle 2. To thwart or frustrate 3. To elude $32.5 million for 12 wins in 3 years. Let me know when he wants to give any of the cash back for doing nothing. He tore his labrum and now rotator cuff to swindle the Cubs?
  10. Hendry should have never let Matt Clement walk. Yes, I understand that Matt is not the same pitcher since he got drilled, but who is to say that he would have been drilled if he stayed, or that he would not still be that consistent pitcher. When Hendry let him walk, it really hurt this team. Another case of Hendry not looking ahead, and of course, I am sure fiscal responsibility was thrown in there when that decision was made. BCB Clement was an average pitcher at best. $9.5M is way too much money for someone like that.

  12. Is that crap necesssary? What would you call people who think Wood should stay with the Cubs in any capacity? Isn't bilking this franchise out of millions over his career enough for anyone. I think so. Let him go away. And I better not see him dressed in a uniform in the dugout anytime this year. He is not a member of this team. Bilking? Give me a break.
  13. You have poor taste Funny, I've always thought that about AC/DC fans.
  14. The Tigers have more talent on their roster.
  15. They're 8½ games better than us right now.
  16. That's 1 more than I got. Never was my cup of tea.
  17. Thats exactly why you do trade him. He's having the stats of his career, but is going to cool off. Trade now, while the value is high. He's way overpayed for a platoon quality player, and if there's a team out there that will give up value for him, trade him. And replace him with whom? Be careful what you wish for. You replace him with somebody good next year. It really doesn't matter who takes his place for the rest of this season.
  18. AC/DC is easily the worst band ever. Yes, worse than the Spice Girls or 98 Degrees.
  19. When was the last time the NL won the ASG?? :roll: :roll: :roll: I don't remember off the top of my head. :roll: :roll: :roll:
  20. Because their best is worse than their competitor's best?
  21. Isn't that akin to telling you the sky is up?
  22. Houston had a great run to get to the WS, but I don't think they were close to being the 2nd best team. Top 6-8 probably, but definitely not top 2.
