  1. Why not bat Soriano there while he's hot?
  2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter-Eater_Lad It's a wicked sick burn because he SUCKS.
  3. That stuff is always fun; the penises here crying about fake rallies can go eat a bus.
  4. But the ump was right. Supporting Hawk on this is like saying Joe McCarthy was right because technically there were Soviet spies.
  5. Yeah, it doesn't take terrible systems years to be fixed. Ironclad logic there.
  6. YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY THINGS JUST TO SAY THEM.
  7. Seeing as it's an official MLB-sanctioned broadcast or whatever I'd assume they have say over the content.
  8. Actually, Hawk is perfect for Santo's role of the the ridiculous homer. The difference is that Ron was wisely relegated to the color commentator role on the radio and Hawk is inexplicably the play-by-play guy on the television broadcast.
  9. Alright, who is the lone nay and why? I'm not saying they're wrong; I'm honestly curious as to why they think he's doing a bad job. Personally I'm with the people who say the "good" is mainly how you kinda forget that he's there.
  10. Yes, of the heart.
  11. Yeah, I mean, we're relatively splitting hairs when we're talking about money; it's the SB and it's going to make an ungodly amount regardless of where it's played. I just don't see Chicago having anything to actually make the argument that the SB should be held here. Shitty weather, terrible field, terrible tiny stadium that looks awful on TV...none of these are things that could completely derail the idea, but in the end the attitude is likely going to be "why bother" when there are so many more easily accommodating locations that are much better suited.
  12. I know. Look at it this way: Chicago has absolutely nothing to offer to entice the NFL to bring the Super Bowl here. Nothing.
  13. I don't see what the gamble is personally. There are plenty of places where crappy weather can and has played a major role. Snow in Chicago would be better than a rain storm in Miami. The Super Bowl is, first and foremost, a television event. And snowy football games make for fantastic television. The media members who want their paid vacation at the beach will be upset, but anybody should love the opportunity to be involved with such an event. Well, they wouldn't be if it's a hideous Chicago Feb., and you know it. You'd have tons of complaints from around the league to such an idea, and from outside, too. They're not going to potentially dent their cash cow, so they're going to continue to take the path of least resistance more often than not and stick to domes or warm-weather locations, the NY game aside.
  14. Well, it's a really shitty stadium, too.
  15. I have absolutely zero confidence in that happening. Besides, isn't it a pipe dream in the first place? I know we're going to see one in NY soon, but playing a SB in Feb. weather in a place like Chicago just doesn't seem like something the NFL will gamble on.
  16. I like my Super Bowls not played on the field equivalent of a chewed-up piece of beef, thank you very much.
  17. *Roaring applause*
  18. Horrible idea.
  19. *Slow clap*
  20. You can still wear your Zubaz, sulley.
  21. All time favorite tumblr blog. #curtains Jordan's horrible fashion taste is truly baffling. For one, he's seemingly stuck dressing like it's still the 90's...unfortunately, he dressed like [expletive] in the 90's, too.
  22. It's hard to blame all of Wood's injury issues on him since Wood started missing major time a good 3 years before Hendry became the GM.
  23. Strawman. No one said "can't enjoy." The argument is "enjoy slightly less." No it isn't. You've said "ruined" all along. It is a lie. When something could be 10 on a 1-10 awesome scale, and instead it's an 8.5, I think it's reasonable to say it was "ruined." Not if it's a woman. That's still a damn fine looking lady. Are we using BB's scale?
