  1. I looked into the eyes of the list of the most overrated bands in rock history and I saw three letters: a D, an M, and a B. You might not like the Pumpkins, but to call them the most overrated ever is ridiculous. Ha -- I'll grant you Dave. I rescind my previous statement.
  2. The Smashing Pumpkins might be the most overrated band in rock history. And I'd pay good money to see Billy Corgan punched in the face. He severely overestimates his own legend.
  3. As a doctor, I know more about baseball than anyone here. SO (FORGET) YOU!! I, also, have a non-sequitur about blogs. I'm not sure what blogs are, but I assure you, they can't diagnose you like I can. SO (FORGET) THEM!!
  4. He has a record that will never be broken. He don't need no stinkin' Comeback Player of the Year.
  5. You can try this site: http://www.streamick.com/ I have no idea if it's legal, and just trying it now, what they claimed was ESPN was some sort of UK Sports Channel. MLB is one of the channels they claim to stream, but again, I'm not sure. I wouldn't put all my eggs in that site's basket, but it can't hurt to try if there's no other options, I suppose.
  6. leonard little, 3 months. And actually, it wasn't even 3 months. He just had to spend the night in jail. So, for three months, he'd be free during the day, but then report in at night. 90 days sleeping in a jail... how'd he ever survive?
  7. It would be a lot cooler if he drank the champagne instead of, like, spitting it all out. Papelbon's River Dancing will forever be the lamest thing I've ever seen. He is the essence of "suck."
  8. Not a clue on that one. I thought it might be an incomplete pass initially, but if I had a whistle I wouldn't have blown it - too questionable. That's a good point (mentioned by others as well), that he should've let the play finish out, ruled a fumble, then gone back to review it. At least this way, had it been an incomplete pass, nothing would have been lost. As it was, he jumped the gun and killed the play. I guess upon second thought, it was a pretty big screw up by ol' Guns. I still like him. He and Mike Carey are my favorites, and I'm not really sure why.
  9. That's BS. Yeah, he blew that call terribly. But is it his fault that the NFL that incomplete passes aren't reviewable? He's one of the better refs in the league. He got one wrong. It happens. And I think I'm the last remaining Rams fan. I guess I know how the Lorax felt... (Good God, the Rams are terrible.)
  10. the beer they brew Ha... fair enough (hey, I'm from St. Louis). Although damned if I don't love a good PBR, because I am a douchey hipster (it's really not a Milwaukee beer anymore, but whatever).
  11. I loved this comment. Also, the one time I went to Milwaukee, I met David Cross. It's probably my favorite city in America. Plus, they brew so much beer there... what's not to like?
  12. Well played, Mr. Mariotti.
  13. To kinda defend Pujols (even though this is a dick move), the competitive fire that makes him arguably the best hitter in the game is the same fire that, well, makes him kind of a prick. I mean, Jordan was kinda the same way -- a total ass because he knew that he was the best. In his mind, no one was better than him, and he deserved the MVP every year (which he probably did). Pujols has that same mindset, that he is the best and should be the MVP every year. If he's such a fearless hitter because he's an ass, then I say, continue being an ass, Albert. Since he's won a ring for my team, I'm really not able to criticize him, anyway.
  14. Well, at least the correct band is winning.
  15. Apparently, they aren't offering McGwire immunity to deal with this commission. I don't really understand that. I mean, if I'm McGwire, I admit nothing either and wouldn't cooperate. Sure, it's bad on the public image, but at least he didn't perjure himself. I don't understand why they don't just start offering immunity in exchange for testimony from players. If the goal is to clean up baseball, then let's not worry about any legal complications that may arise from their testimony and just hear what they have to say. After all, criminal charges aren't really what we're after here. Personally, my guess is they aren't offering immunity to McGwire and others because Selig would rather come back to the public with a, "Well, we tried to investigate, but were stonewalled," excuse, rather than having a player testify and talk about just how widespread the use of performance enhancing drugs was (and perhaps still is).
  16. I've also heard (and someone can correct me if I'm wrong) that this is the first time in baseball history that a team has had two 8-game losing streaks and managed to not fall out of first place during either.
  17. ...says Shawn Reid of the Sporting News. Coming from a Royals fan, I would expect sour grapes. It seems that many from KC have a general loathing for St. Louis, and I'm not really sure why. And the whole "best fans in baseball" silliness is not something that every Cardinal fan touts like it's a fact. Granted, some idiots do, but certainly you can't lump the morons in with intelligent fans. Every team has intelligent fans, every team has idiots. Such is life. As for the throwing the ball back after home runs, I agree that it's stupid to be done in Busch. But it doesn't happen after every home run. In fact, I've only seen it done twice. Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill. I thought you all might dig this, even though I think it's pretty wrong.
  18. Had to go with Cream. Although I do love the album Unplugged in New York.
  19. Probably. But I'll click on the sponsor links. :)
  20. They're not imports. I just can't find the CDs I want at Best Buy. Something tells me they won't have The Rosebuds or Girl Talk (although, to be fair, I haven't shopped at Best Buy for CDs in a while, so they might have them). If I were to buy a CD, I'd go to an independent record store. But you see, when I steal music, no phyiscal property is taken. If I were to steal a CD from Best Buy, the store would be out money because it has to pay for the CD. When I download an album, no money is lost, because if I couldn't hear this music for free, I certainly wouldn't be paying for it. The vast majority of music I download is stuff that I wouldn't pay for. They're bands I've never heard of, and I'm curious to check them out. Like I said, if I dig their music, I'm more than happy to see them live. I lose no sleep over my stealing music.
  21. The CDs I want aren't at Best Buy.
  22. I shall continue stealing music, you shall continue rolling your eyes. Such is life. I'd post a song or two on the board that I like from bands that I'm currently listening to, but I'd hate to be accused of facilitating someone's larceny, so I shan't.
  23. Haha... I'm "trendy." What a joke.
  24. Well, I suppose everything did work out for the best. I now use a bit torrent client, and instead of downloading individual MP3s, I get full albums. Hey, I'm a poor college kid, so I wouldn't be buying the albums anyway. Plus, I support the bands live. I just refuse to support the RIAA.
